No, not really. 1.Sexism only works if both genders allow it to happen. 2. The previous statement is unimportant. Sexism is a universally Bad Thing, regardless of who perpetrates it, and regardless of whether the people who perpetrate it also suffer because of it.
More people have said that and been killed than there are thorium decay products.

This is the same logic that blames girls for getting raped.

The point of this image is that sexism is perpetrated only by the male gender, because it requires a power imbalance to put into practice, and only men can do that.

I'm going to have to disagree with that fairly adamantly. Many women perpetuate sexism by foisting sexist views on other women, generally in the form of rigid gender roles and sexual mores. These actions and views can be just as damaging as those of men, as any woman that has been slut-shamed by her female peers after being raped can tell you.

While I will grant that the oppression of men by other men is an infinitely bigger problem than the MRA boogieman of women oppressing men, the idea that women cannot internalise (or even exploit) patriarchal norms and impose them on other women is quite absurd. Look at any far-right woman in power and you can see female-on-female sexism in action.

Ok this is true but I meant that sexism happens whether women want it to or not; it is not a two-way street.

Women can participate in the patriarchy but it would still be there even if they didn't.
rap is actually the simplest genre to make, except for the rather large umbrella of "avant garde"
well i disagree because it is such a large umbrella
chris corsano for example must have practised for years and years to do what he does and hes insanely skilled
likewise a lot of it has complex theoretical underpinnings (also a lot of it doesnt; large umbrella. also complex theoretical underpinnings dont make it good but thats another point)
(and its surprisingly easy to tell when someone is just making random noises because 'avant-garde', instead of actually having explored interesting sounds. i can bang at a drum kit randomly but it doesnt make me steve noble)

I'm not sure how you got "all avant garde requires no talent" out of "some avant garde is really easy to make". That's not really what I was trying to say at all.
When Madonna came out with her hit Vogue you knew it was over. She had taken a very specifically queer, transgendered, Latino and African-American phenomenon and totally erased that context with her lyrics, “It makes no difference if you’re black or white, if you’re a boy or girl.” Madonna was taking in tons of money, while the Queen who actually taught her how to Vogue sat before me in the club, strung out, depressed and broke. So if anybody requested Vogue or any other Madonna track, I told them, “No, this is a Madonna free zone! And as long as I’m DJ-ing you will not be allowed to Vogue to the decontextualized, reified, corporatlized, liberalized, neutralized, asexualized, re-genderized, pop reflection of this dancefloor’s reality!

I'm not sure how you got "all avant garde requires no talent" out of "some avant garde is really easy to make". That's not really what I was trying to say at all.
im not sure how you thought i was implying you said "all avant garde requires no talent", thats not what i was trying to say at all. and i can kind of see how you were saying "some avant-garde is really easy to make" with what you said there, but i can only see it now that you have said that

@ Earthlight and Sredni: I think part of the problem is that, in most discussions, there's no distinction between prejudice and institutionalized prejudice. Everything just gets lumped into categories based on which group's being victimized.

That's always ticked me off, to be honest. There is a distinct difference between institutionalised racism/sexism/[prejudice] and the interpersonal equivalent, in dynamics, causes and effects, regardless of how closely interlinked they may be.

sorry i just spouted a few names at you there heres chris corsano in action
hes absolutely unreal
there is a weird idea amongst amateur rap producers that only a few particular combinations of snares hits and kicks are "right".
If you were looking for a reason that a lot of modern rap beats sound the same, there you go.

lack of food can do things to the brain.
I made a thing with horns.
It's not finished because I don't know if I want to add more horns (like, counter-riffs or something) or do more with that sample.

And he's wearing a frigging ascot.

Really.
And Lovecraft has a goatee. Then again, his name is Hatecraft, so he's like....the mirror Lovecraft?
Well, he never smiles, so I guess that's in character.
