Miley Cyrus is in a heterosexual marriage but appears to think she has redefined it as queer and 'genderless'.

The emperor has no clothes.

Woman married man. And the news is...? God so desperate...

MrsJayy · 21/02/2019 21:46

I think that is the very gist of the thread Absinthe miley and her ilk are disrespecting womens choices by making out her choice is superior and edgy she is married to a guy and there is nothing wrong with being married to a man but I guess being seen as ordinary isn't for Miley.

RhymingRabbit · 21/02/2019 21:42

Oh I see @Kettleon80, you wanted to post here and have everyone AGREE with you and when they don't you resort to playground insults and call them the thread police. Got it now.

No where did I say that Miley Cyrus represented feminism OR "an icon of bisexuality". If you care to look back at the posts you have replied to but haven't noticed you will see that I have made no comment on Miley Cyrus. My only contribution to this thread has been to call out your questionable attitudes. And if you don't like it tough.

From a feminist point of view, I think the problematic thing is that she is behaving in a fairly gender-conforming way, but throwing other women who make the same choices (marriage to a man, a traditional white wedding) under the bus by distancing herself from it, and signalling that she is different and consequently more interesting.

It's the 'I'm not like other girls' phenomenon. It relies on suggesting that other girls are inferior.

I can't say I've noticed any of YOUR posts but I appreciate the lecture.

Yes I do question this woman's sexuality. I think it's is a commercialisation if homosexuality and bisexuality.

Who are you to question anyone's feminism in that case?

No Miley Cyrus does not represent feminism to me....at. All. Like I say if you truly believe she is some kind of icon for the bisexual community that's up to you.

I probably do sound unhinged when I discuss this utter tripe - because that's what it is to me and I believe it to be very, very dangerous.

But I guess you are the supreme decider of what is and isn't suitable for this board...

Who are you to question anyone else's sexuality?

I did read your posts... all of them..and while I do think that the article was ill advised... your posts are a little unhinged.
Your last sentence makes no sense at all if YOU read MY posts.

This whole thread is the antithesis of feminism. You have questioned a woman's sexuality, her agency, her right to do with her body as she sees fit, and her right to express her opinions. Not my kind of feminism.

Er no....

The having her cake and eat it referred to her desire to still claim to be edgy whilst simultaneously inferring that being married to a man may make people question her credibility as an edgy rebel.

Did you even read my point? I also said I don't believe she is Bi and people should be more pissed of that she is using bisexuality as a way to gain cool points which translates into making money. That's my opinion. If you want Miley Cyrus to be an icon for bisexuality that's up to you.

RhymingRabbit · 21/02/2019 21:06

Is this thread really on the feminism board?

And this...

What I 'object' to is this having my cake and eat it look at me in my queer relationship with a man,

Jesus...how many times have I heard this shite as a bisexual woman. And here was me thinking that the "having their cake and eating it" nonsense about bisexuality was a thing of the past.

Why is the sexuality of Miley Cirus so important to you OP?

Ooh you got me. I'm trans but trying to hide it so I'm really obsessed with the sexuality of Miley Cyrus

*Nothing new about a woman married to a man who has had previous affairs with women, or who even continues to have affairs with women / people throughout the marriage.

Has anyone under the age of 30 ever read a book? Bisexuality / LGB life is not new. Even transgender people are not new, historically, although the extent of the mind-bending denial of biology with the new TRA agenda is certainly new.*

Oh no you're wrong. Didn't you know this generation invented sex and relationships the way they should be. Living in this postmodern existence you must rage and burn against heteronormative ideals - they need a medal for educating us all on the perils of being 'just' heterosexual or homosexual. You have to be pansexual or transgender or you ain't worth shit.

*reminds me of this.

So earnest.*

I can't get past 'I couldn't even pick a pronoun'

I can no longer indulge this type of first world narcissism

So she marries her childhood sweetheart. But that’s far too boring so she spices it up to get more exposure to make more money and just strings some random words together.
She actually the opposite of redefining. But that’s to boring and not edgy enough

Miley (famous because of her creepy dad, what a way to start) is so dim that if ever a thought tried to cross that empty head of hers it would perish of loneliness long before it reached the other side.

Once she had one of those undercut buzzcut hairstyles, which is probably what she thinks of as gender non conforming...

Yes. Ignore the fact she was strutting around with half her vagina ha going out at the same time - she's totally empowering

Presenting her arse for some misogynistic boor to grind against on tv is hardly "gender non conforming"

Kettleon80 · 21/02/2019 20:46

I agree she's not remotely gender non conforming.

Maybe she is oh so-edgily redefining gender non-conforming as being totally gender -conforming.

I know woman who calls herself queer. Married a man and at the wedding told everyone how important it is that everyone knows her true identity, that she is queer. Everyone was eye rolling all over the place.

Surprised eyes didn't roll out of heads with that nonsense !

MargueritaPink · 21/02/2019 20:36

She's not even particularly gender non conforming either

She isn't remotely gender non conforming.

TinklyLittleLaugh · 21/02/2019 20:28

She is married to Thor’s brother. Sadly for her it’s not Loki.
