I don't really know if it's the same but that's besides the point. I don't really have much of an opinion on Ronda out of the cage. I relate to her because I have a history suicide in my family and have dealt with that my whole life. I think she comes across as extremely abrasive at times but she is a legit badass female and I respect that. Ishihara, I don't know anything about him.
this.
I just remember your opinion on the Ishihara thread about you not thinking it was in good taste his use of the word but are in this thread defending Ronda when she coined and popularized that "Do Nothing Bitches" as a catchphrase and got it trending which is more harmful than a foreign prelim fighter using it in an interview. I think that is a bit of a double standard to be honest.
I care about people being misled, as they were about Rousey's character and skill level.
That's a fair point. I have said multiple times that I don't dislike Ishihara I just find his use of that word gross and offensive. That doesn't make me hate him wholly and judge him unworthy of sympathy for anything going forward. People are flawed, and you can't ever just write them off for one thing that upsets you. If he were in a situation like Ronda now I'd be defending him while still finding his use of that word wrong.
Right, and this is part of the reason why there are gender inequalities and why you'll see less sympathy for some issues you feel strongly about. Having that double standard is intellectually dishonest.
women shouldn't be do nothing bitches though. they should create and achieve things in life. no matter what kind of person you are, you shouldn't be a waste of space. some people misinterpret that kind of stuff and start criticizing houseviwes who are actually making a difference in the world by growing their kids right. but it's still good advice.
It can be intellectually dishonest in your eyes but that's how it goes. To say that's part of the reason for gender inequalities is strange. I just said I don't support her use of the word and you ignored every other part of my post.
I'm fine with both saying it. I don't see a point in giving power to words so I was merely responding to her position on it.
She might be looking to drop MMA for acting, in the same way she dropped judo for MMA when she didn't win gold.
It seems almost like you went out of your way to put me into some weird trap. I admit that I am flawed. If you think you have no intellectual dishonesty, or however you want to phrase it, you're lying to yourself. Oppressors don't get to turn around and act oppressed, that's generally how the world works. Do you think a black person saying the n word is the same as a white person, and etc? It's just a rabbit hole and yeah we disagree so moving on.
I don't see any issue with bitchihara calling a bitch a bitch. I don't think it's positive but it's definitely not negative. Ronda's example is positive IMO. she is a bad example in other stuff, but girls should definitely look up to someone who sets her mind to goals and achieves them. society has too many lazy, dumb people as it is.
