The Thread for New People to Introduce ThemselvesHi my name is xXx-Fallen_Angel-xXx but I go by Fallen most of the time and while I’m neither particularly new I’m not particularly old either.
Obviously yet another member of SRSLY although I’m a bit less active on flamebate than my compatriots. I believe both of them are also much nicer than I am although I do tend to be helpful on occasion. (view post) |

In academia the line between legitimate scholarship and attention-whoring can be a very fine one. (view post) |

happidex + smileprinThey can be expensive but you could always consider getting a Sanesco Test. Instead of taking a large number of anti-anxiety and anti-depression meds I was able to shift my diet and use natural supplements such as GABA,5-HTP, and Theanine. As a result I pretty much am ‘happy’ most of the time without all the nasty side effects from traditional SSRIs and SNRIs. As always see a doctor before changing your mode of treatment.

im cofnused an wnoderingDearest Escher, I’m glad to see your emerging social and feminist consciousness. It’s important for anyone to feel that they have control over their own bodies and their interactions with other people. If you feel that you are comfortable with exposing yourself physically as well as emotionally then I congratulate you. However if you feel that continuing to post objectified images of women degrades and demeans yourself then I fully support that position as well. It’s all about finding a balance between what you feel is okay for yourself.
If you are interested in reading up on objectification of women within the media (generally related to cinema but many feminist critics have expanded on this)I would suggest a wikipedia search on Male Gaze. Male Gaze is a thesis developed by Laura Mulvey that explains that through the way we depict women in film and the arts we tend to reduce women to ‘objects’ that are bought and sold. By denying women ‘agency’ we as a society relegate them to a secondary subordinate position.
If you want to read Mulvey’s original article it can be found here
Another lighter take on Male Gaze can be found in this Dinosaur Comics
Of course not every feminist is going to subscribe to Mulvey’s thesis and many including Camille Paglia reject the overwhelming fascination with it. So as always YMMV.
