What’s happening, Bitchfaces…y’all…envious ass wanna be me hos in the back row…how is everyone?
Today, I received an email from one of the agencies that deals with connecting journalists with sources. Not just news, they will, say, link me to someone who can give me a military tale for my book, I just let them know what I need to source, and they find them for me.
Pretty cool, right? It really is. Great service. However, they sent a survey out and the first question got me $2 pistol hot.
The theme of the survey, The State of the Media. A lot of “what could your sources do to better assist you” shit. But the first question was, “what do you think is the most serious issue facing the nation at the moment?”
Options included recession, environmental issues, unemployment, housing…some other shit…what the fuck? A fill in the blank box at the bottom?
Where the fuck is the issue happening for 50% of the fucking population in this country?
We don’t even qualify as a fucking survey selection?
So, I wrote in “women’s reproductive health, and it should qualify as a fucking option here”. Because I like to voice my frustration in completely fucking pointless avenues. And also because I was confused, could this be the setup of this survey, is there some theme like, “spot the obvious missing option”, or?
No, not at all. It wasn’t that type of party. They just evidently don’t seem to give a fuck about women. It’s that type of party.
I wish someone had mentioned it. I don’t attend parties of that nature. Y’all know I have hang ups.
I hate to believe that in this age, this point in time, someone could actually see the plight of women, the situation that we’re dealing with every day, the ground we’re losing, and not take note that it might be considered an affliction. That it might be a source of discourse? That perhaps it might be considered a fucking concern, ya know, if someone is asking.
As it turns out, look at this shit, someone is.
But not really.
“Maybe if we don’t remind them, they won’t think about it. What’s the next most feminine topic, gents? I’m sure they’ll just direct their attention there. You know them bitches flighty as fuck anyway, hoss.”
Really, that’s the general sum of how I feel women’s issues are addressed. Even today. Yeah, they see us. They know what the fucking problem is. But “wHaT aBOuT men?” and “that doesn’t happen anymore” and “women rape too”.
Just enough to make it seem they give a fuck, but shut it down and redirect before they can actually be accused of hearing us.
I mean, maybe it’s just me. Maybe I’m the only one who feels like when a woman is addressing feeling unsafe and a stupid motherfucker says “women rape too” that dude should be lit on fucking fire publicly to stop the other fucking idiots from chiming in with him.
Probably just me.
That’s it. Just an observation. And yeah, women rape too. A whole 3% worth. You dudes better watch your asses on the way home tonight.
Fuck out of here with that shit.
I'm just here chillin' with my torch. *whistles innocently*
Fucking April. Leave it to my Bitchface April to know just what to say to get me riled up and ready to cut someone... btw April I want to buy some merch. Share a link, yeah?
