Re: [videoblogging] Sick of the sexism/looking for a ........

Dear "Distraught enough to make a video" Brittany, Apart from the fact that you completely misread the list as is the case with most Americans, you then push upon us a half loading video that just has you choosing the worst language I have ever heard, have you not had the training where no one listens to you in an arguement if you use expleatives?  Please calm down, sex sells and that's a fact, there is no getting away from it, I wish it wasn't the case but unfortunately in the world we live a pretty face often is more popular than a sad faced tired old man.  That is the only reason why [EMAIL PROTECTED]@^&^M is so successful and why Kitkast is too, need I mention the French Maids or 888 slide or even The Captain Humphreys Project. I also would like to add in video, Visual is the thing that make it attractive in the first place.  Or is that too obvious?  I am sure that no one in the group tried to be sexist in any way, shape or form.  Mind you I had to stop myself adding to the "Don't men grow out of the boob fascination?"  sub debate.   I am tired of women saying that men are sexist, when quite obviously they are not, they are just having a laugh, maybe more feminists like you should go out and get a sense of humor, maybe. Men are very base creatures at the best of times and there is no way to control them, and every so often men make comments on Breasts etc, you never hear a woman doing a Knob joke, now do you?  That is one of the many reasons why women are better than men, but please, you can't change everyone.

I made a video about how the sexist comments on this listserv made me feel.  It's not all in fun, and having just joined the list after resisting for months, I know why I was warned not to bother with this "conversation" at all.  I'll keep my subscription, but I'll probably go back to deleting all of the messages.  Thanks to one like-minded female who emailed me to alert me to today's dose of bullshit. Go watch this: http://modernfeminist.blogspot.com/2006/05/sexism-in-vlogosphere.html And thank you to all of the men and women who tried to put a stop to all of this.  It mostly amazes me what will be said when you know countless people will read these emails...but I guess if you're so unaware that you're being sexist, you may not care. See you at VloggerCon, where I'll be discussing inclusion in the vlogosphere...or lack thereof.
