All Fired Up
I just heard a commercial on the radio station 102.5, KNIX, for Yes on 102. Yes, I knew once I heard one I would be floored, but really, this pissed? Even I didn’t expect what I was about to hear! I quote, “... a man wants respect, but a woman, she just wants love.”
What the fuck kind of sexist, patriarchal imperative do we still abide in? I have a vagina and self-identify as female AND I WANT RESPECT ALSO!! What woman out there doesn’t? Sadly, I am sure there are plenty that have been brought up to believe that they don’t deserve respect.
Well, listen up ladies, YOU DO!
And another thing, how is changing the Arizona amendment to defining marriage as “between one man and one woman” going to give a woman who “only wants” love more love? Or less love for that matter!
I have to say ladies, I am not so sure it’s the men holding us down any more. I think WE NEED TO TAKE MORE INITIATIVE TO RISE UP!!! Once I say nothing or no one will hold me down, I mean it!
Men have no more rights than women, they are just more assertive about taking them. Well fuck that! This goes for all you queers, people of color, transquestioning and transgender, feminist males and YOU! Fight for your rights! BE LOUD!!!
I have the right to marry whomever I love. I have the right to earn respect from my partner and she has that same right! I am tired of fighting half ass!
My plea to you is simple. Let KNIX know what you think about them running such a sexist ad. I know they were paid a fair amount, but they could have said NO! Write to raymassie@clearchannel.com (Am I surprised Clear Channel is the mother company? NOPE. Not at all.) and the producer Joe at joe@knixcountry.com. Let them know you will not stand for this. Inundate inboxes. DEMAND they take the ad off the air.
This oppression has gone on far to long and it won’t go away until WE MAKE IT GO!
I don’t dispute freedom of speech rights, but I will not support a radio station that blatantly oppresses woman and lets one of its’ advertisers tell all who listen that women don’t want respect, only love! What is that telling little girls and young women? All you need is another’s love to be happy? It is simply NOT TRUE!
This year THREE states are trying to ban GAY marriage once and for all. Arizona, California, and Florida all have Propositions on their states ballot this November. All three are such a waste of money! In Arizona and Florida, proponents of “one man one woman” laws are essentially trying to double ban gay marriage. Gay marriage is already banned in both states. In Arizona, this attempt to define has already been thrown out in 2006.
GET FED UP ALREADY PEOPLE!! THIS IS YOUR TAX MONEY BEING WASTED!! Start demanding that the money being spent trying to oppress people, be spent helping them rise to their full potential! EDUCATION in the state of Arizona could use a boost. (And I don’t mean ABSTINENCE ONLY education.)
For a state who’s beloved governor is a dyke (speculation only, since she’s not out), we sure have a close minded view of the world. And by close minded, I mean NEO-CHRISTIAN. (Christian means Christ like and I just don’t see love and acceptance of all people anywhere in your Christianity.)
And to the government, GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY PERSONAL LIFE!
Write one letter. Short and to the point. Copy and paste it! Take my blog. Copy and paste it, pass it along to everyone you know! GET THE WORD OUT THAT WOMEN (PEOPLE) WILL NO LONGER ACCEPT SEXISM! Expect people to argue with you and be educated about your return argument. Email me if you need book suggestion. Go to feministing.com. They are a marvelous resource and a good read!
No More Lying Down! Take A Stand!
