Hey lady, it’s only a fucking joke!

Posted by clubwah on April 8, 2008

I read a blog today about an email a woman received from a male friend titled “Mu$lim pu$$y”, and realised why feminism has a bad name.

Of course such an email implies pornographic material featuring women of mostly Middle Eastern descent, however it was a picture of a cat dressed as a Muslim suicide bomber (right). Get it?

Crude stereotypes aside, this is the sort of “funny”, email you get several times a day and after a quick view you either delete it, respond to the sender or, if it’s any good, forward it on to new recipients.

Unless you’re the author of Blogger on a Cast Balcony , who somehow reckons that sender of the email was in the habit of humiliating “people of another ethnicity by humiliating ‘their’ women”.

She adds that, by sending this email he endorses the notion that: “We are at war with all Muslims. Humiliating (up to and including raping) “their” women is a legitimate war tactic. (Oh, and we also accuse them of having medieval thought processes!)”

So what have I missed here? It’s a picture of cat dressed as a suicide bomber, which Ms Balcony links without any segue into a feminist tirade about humiliating Muslim women.

Muslims = suicide bombers.
We can humiliate people of another ethnicity by humiliating “their” women.

What women? Where? That’s a fucking male suicide bomber - he’s wearing sheik’s head dress, not a hijab.

Ms Balcony seem to have failed to realise that when your friend sent an email titled Muslim Pussy he was referring to cats, not women, in the hope your dirty mind would make you think you were the recipient of porn. It seems a dirty mind is the least of your fuckin’ problems.

As one respondent put it better then I could: ”I marvel at how your Feminist Logic ™ allows you to go straight from a picture of a cat in a funny costume directly into accusations of rape. You make that huge mental leap with such practiced ease! Have you been associated with the feminist movement for some time?”
