The Sexist: Sex and Gender in the District

Posts Tagged ‘promiscuity’

Women and Gay Men Are Sluts. Jealous, Straight Guys?

It’s the classic double standard: If a woman is sexually promiscuous, she’s a slut; if a man is sexually promiscuous, he’s . . . a man. The origin of this fun gender construct can be attributed to the biological way-back-machine. Men, the theory goes, were created to spread their seed to as many wombs as possible; women were created to bear the children of one man only, so she knows which dude to sue for child support.

Whenever a man deviates from this reproductive gender role, he’s labeled as kind of a pussy. When a woman deviates from the role, she doesn’t get off so easy—she’s a bad, immoral, evil slut. It’s funny: even those who believe that men and women were “created” this way though the process of evolution—and not via some God who wove his moral authority into our very genitals—will still argue that deviating from gender norms results in great moral depravity.

Except for gay guys! When gay men are sexually promiscuous—you know, like men are evolutionarily wired to be—they are bad, immoral, evil sluts, too. Welcome to the club, guys (there are no free towels). It’s funny: even those who believe that there’s nothing wrong with being gay still argue that gay sex results in the great moral depravity usually reserved only for female sluts. Why? Because there are no women around to virtuously refuse to have sex with them.

Sexist Beatdown: Let’s Talk About Sex, Whatever That Is

Quick Quiz! Sex. What is it, exactly?

A. One step past whatever you were just caught doing with that woman who is not your wife.

B. Anything that two people do together in private when they love each other very much, not including whatever those queers are doing.

C. Whenever the one with a penis has an orgasm.

D. Given the obvious power disparity between men and women in the patriarchy, an implicitly non-consensual act—unless two girls are doing it, but only if two girls are doing it exclusively for their own pleasure and not to satisfy the male interest in two girls doing it.

E. Dancing.

Today, Sady of Tiger Beatdown and I will get to the bottom of this mysterious phenomenon, and figure out why the definition of “sex” is not actually any particular combination of penises, vaginas, anuses, and mouths, but rather a tool for cheaters to pretend they’re not cheating and homophobes to pretend they’re different from gays. Good morning, by the way!

Real Women Vs. Fake Women: A Quiz

The other day, a friend of mine received a helpful pamphlet outside of the Metro entitled “Real Women vs. Fake Women.” This handy guide—which reveals which ladies in your life are authentic and which are fake, make-believe women—is excerpted from Allan Williams‘ book, God Don’t Like Fake People. In the book, Williams also tackles “real” and “fake” men. But more on that later—ladies first!

Women: Are you real, or are you fake? I’ve adapted Williams’ tips into a handy fifteen-question quiz. Find out after the jump!

Girls Who Smile Are Down to Fuck Whatever

Every month, I share in the blessing that is my roommate’s subscription to Psychology Today. Just like the popular undergraduate major, the magazine is a potent mixture of pseudo-science:

and hot girls:

This month’s psychological musings include a handy guide to figuring out which girls are slutty. Great. I love psychology.

“Is a short skirt just a welcome mat with a belt?” asks writer Matthew Hutson, to which I reply, “Do skirts have belts?” and also, “No.” No, it is not.
