AIBU to think that scoffing lemon drizzle cake and shagging toyboys is a feminist act?

[BasilFoulTea]

Because I enjoy doing both and I'm a self-declared feminist, so it must be, right?

Or is that just a fucking stupid way to look at the world?

Because just because you think you're a feminist and you like doing something, that doesn't mean that every single thing you ever do, from eating cornflakes to dancing the tango, is feminist.

It's lacking in critical thinking and common sense, to think it is.

IMO.

I just stubbed my toe - I am now swearing enjoying the throbbing of the sexxay feministy pain!!

Phallic is very feminist. It shows you're cool and like sex, which is like totally the best.

Wotsit as phallic is sexxay and that's edgy and feministy - a very post-modern feminist interpretation of the wotsit's place in the individual's psyche.

Ahhhhhh, I think I'm getting it now: I LIKE wotsits. And I LIKE sexxxaaaaaaytime.

And what I like is the absolute defining benchmark of anything.

(that is a feminist error of syntax, btw)

I went to bed early last night, because fighting the patriarchy is hard work and feminists need to get their feminist sleep. DH, in an act of patriarchal aggression and oppression and a complete lack of respect for women's spaces, rudely woke me and told me to budge over because I was taking up all of the bed. I think I might have drooled on his pillow whilst I was sleeping, as a pre-emptive act of feminist revenge.

I just ate some Edinburgh shortbread. It was shaped like a square. In an act of female empowerment, I nibbled the edges until it was a crudely cock-shaped. Then I ate it in a feminist manner.

My fruit snack pot is crammed to the brim with phallic food. I am enacting feminist resistance by eating it.

Do you think that perhaps doughnuts are more appropriate feminist food, given that they are round and thus symbolise the eternal cyclical feminine?

Yes doughnuts, but not yum-yums as they are phallic shaped.

SMASH THE YUM-YUMS (I never liked them anyway).

Doughnuts have feminine curves and a feminine middle void that represents the ultimate tunnel of femininity, so obviously that makes them awesome and feminisity to the extreme.

You telling me you're more of a feminist than I am?

That won't help your cause - you have put me off it now and I bet my dedication will be missed.

I dunno SGM did you feel empowered as you scattered the Barbie sprinkles or did you have this nagging feeling you were being duped by the Tescoarchy into choosing them?

"Doughnuts have feminine curves and a feminine middle void that represents the ultimate tunnel of femininity, so obviously that makes them awesome and feminisity to the extreme."

Beachcomber - off out to buy jam doughnuts. As I watch the strawberry jam leak into the ultimate tunnel of feministy, I will be secure in the knowledge that this is an important feminist deed.

It will indeed be Very Symbolic lesley and a deed that will shake the patriarchy to its very core.

And I will add to the symbolic and radical nature of this act by pointing out the symbolism to DP - just as DP is biting into the strawberry jam of course.
