Why does 'artsy' and 'edgy' always translate to soft core cock shots?


For a generation of whiners who cry and moan the second (the half second, the 1/60th of a second that it takes to show a single frame even) the slightest visible shot of a woman's labia is on screen, citing human rights and exploitation and context doesn't matter--what the crap is with all these penis shots today?

Backed by the motion picture ratings board of America who doesn't rate dick shots and vag shots equally because dick shots can be in films rated for teens under age of majority now--(dictating for Canada and other countries as well who are NOT America) these same people cry 'free the nipple' and then show penis and breast together in a film in the same context and claim it's equal exploitation of men and women--except it's not at all.
In an era where breast nudity is basically understood to be anything but sexual, if you're going to sexualize it anyway accept that the equal male counterpart of nudity is a bare chested male. Male chests are sexualized just as much as female chests are, there is no denying it no matter what BS you believe.

Free the labia, or stop showing the penis--it's that simple. This means stop darkening labia shots while brightening penis shots; showing direct 0 degree angles on a male's anus but avoiding anything inside of a 45 degree angle on a woman's inner labia or anus. Equality means protect both or show neither at all.
You have equal rights; you want more, you want opportunity for status. That doesn't grant you it for free, and certainly doesn't grant you higher status than men, earning status doesn't mean diminish the status of others, thinking it does loses status because it's childish thinking.
Stop preaching anti / male ideals using exploitative male imagery while you cry female superiority and pretend its something else besides a vengeance driven, prejudice and polarised version of gender roles and how gender affects interactions between the sexes; equally damaging to society's future as sexism towards women is. Whether or not you're ready to accept the reality: feminism has mutated into anti male sexism... that's an inevitability with any human idealism in all of time. Feminism is no exception, women are human after-all. What a radical notion, that being human isn't the same as being perfection incarnated.

It's funny, because when women in hollywood talked like this say, 50 years ago (just to give an idea of how old today's popular idealisms really are; anything BUT 21st century) they were treated as this post will no doubt be treated: ridicule, scrutiny, sexist driven comments offering no valid opinion like 'know your place'

I do know my place. I'm in charge of my life, my personal resources and my time. I keep my resources (like my money) away from damaging cultural outlets like this. I spend my time pointing out ironies between today and early feminism in the 70s, specifically how feminists who were treated poorly in the past use this as justification for destructive vengeance under the umbrella of 'justice' when it's anything but just.

Your privileges are not rights. My rights are not privileges nor are they concern of anyone else who identifies differently than I do. If you don't like it, that's your right; just as it's mine not to care what you think because I have a right to think differently, for myself; along with a right to change my mind at any given time--like when I hear someone completely different than I am with a completely separate experience of life preach to me how to live and disagree with it.

This was a damn straight movie reenactment.
