I’m the anon from that Chanse confession and THANK U OMFG!! I’ve felt the same way about Tommy’s “serving c*nt” show and I felt so alone cuz nobody else bats an eye. Same with Chanse saying b*tch all the time, I know sometimes Angela teases him for it but that’s it, nobody calls him out.
It’s so disrespectful how gay men treat women and it makes solidarity with them as a lesbian very hurtful sometimes. Like oh okay, I stood up for you and now you mock and insult my existence. That’s so awesome. And then other women with internalized misogyny laugh and cheer them along. Very frustrating! Smosh needs to give up all the women-mocking bits. Most especially if it’s men performing them
i’m genuinely glad i have a like-minded person! thank you for speaking up 🫂
The domination of male-coded language.
Especially in the 2010’s, everyone called each other “bro” and “dude”. I’m sure it even happened before this timeframe. Doesn’t matter who is who, what is what. You called everyone and everything “Bro” “Bruh” “Dude” “Man”.
Not many complained. Actually, the expression was shared back. Another way of saying homie. Everyone said it. Everyone accepted it.
Even till this day, for the most part, it is a part of our daily language. It’s become common language, usually to specify friendliness and common ground.
But why doesn’t this happen with female-coded language?
“Girl” “Girlypop” “Bestie”. While I’ll admit, Bestie is not technically female coded, a lot of women do use this word.
I think about how so many people, especially men, get annoyed or upset when called “Girl”. Even “Bestie”. I see men talk about it on Social Media, about how much they hate getting called that. They get annoyed. It’s even come to a point, it is seen as transphobic, we cannot call people Girly Pop or Girl because it can offend someone who is trans identifying.
People come to the defense “well not everyone feels comfortable with that” “not everyone identifies as female”. But only when people are offended by the female-coded terms.
Where is the same energy with women getting offended by being called Bro and Dude? During the 2010’s Giant SJW Bash, I’ve seen women come out that they hated being called Bro and Dude. And nobody had that same logic. They told these women, get over it. Everyone gets called Dude & Bro. It’s normal. It’s a good thing.
The normalization that being male is gender neutrality.
Being called Dude, Bro, Man— it’s ok. Even if you don’t like it. Even if you’re not a man. You should be lucky to be seen as a fellow…man…
#Rambling Thoughts
no no, you’re okay! my post wasn’t directed at you, i should’ve clarified this. i just used yours to address complaints i’ve seen before.
I think people's issues with Smosh Reddit Stories would be solved if they filmed it in a different way.
On most reddit videos, there is at least one story that there is a bad take to. And the comments always get on it and sometimes are put off of the person the take came from. (Personally, I'll usually disagree and have a rant in my head and then just move on). It has been pointed out though that these are their first impressions, and they are often filming reddit stories at the end of a shoot week or like first thing in the morning.
If that is truly the cause of the bad takes when they happen, then a different way of filling could theoretically fix it. Since we probably still want their first reactions, there could be a start point that is just them being read the stories. Then their takes could be filmed at a later time, either later in that day or later in the shoot week, thus giving them time to process and think instead of saying absolute first thoughts. This would also probably reduce the amount that they miss key details.
Idk it would probably be a lot harder to do this way, but it was fun to think about.
shippers/fans of hetero pairings don’t have a say in anything actually. how do you have a fucking audacity to act opressed?
Came across a ridiculous post from a moot and just like, the % of amangela shippers who can't refrain from making every single thing they're in shipping and covering posts with it is over 70 atp, but they have the nerve to be annoyed by damangela shippers? Claiming they all think it's real when it's a tiny percentage all while amangela shippers are slapping captions like "she wants that cookie" on innocent pictures. Yall b projecting HARD.
Damangela fans have to look for fkn scraps bc they aren't in videos together often. Amangela shippers get shit multiple times a week. Pls get off ur high horse. Both of u are in rpf. Get over urself.
All I'm gonna say is you're all being ridiculous and you sound like squabbling middle schoolers. Block each other or shut the hell up. I'm sorry, but this is ridiculous. Go back to Twitter if you wanna do that shit.
loved everything about this uno episode
sound effects, shayne’s ridiculous luck, trevrasha’s jokes, chanse’s fanboying, arasha almost eating a bug (because alex offered her $20 to do it)💀 how it turned from ordinary game to “make arasha win”
really, i had a great time
