Current mood:*sporfle!*

Childfree wank, as usual.
My first report... there's so much here I've left it in tragically general terms.

A parent posts on childfree, telling everyone she is certainly supportive, but she doesn't like the phraseologies. (That'd be JanuaryGirl66.)

Wank ensues, of course, especially when it's discovered she has started the community Anti_kidhaters. The Childfree folks take over her comm, including directly mocking her post.

Much wailing and gnashing of teeth abounds.

ETA: Much bahleeting has occured, particularly in the anti_kidhaters community. Pity.

Oh man. Now that's just asking for trouble. *shakes head* I would feel bad for JanuaryGirl, but honestly, what was she expecting? I'd almost say she was a troll, but her spelling and grammar are awfully good...

Well, according to a couple of people on that thread, JanuaryGirl has some sort of rep for stirring up shit and then running off to play the martyr.

Of course, that could have just been Grudge talking. But given the circumstances...

Yyyyep. I'd believe it. Most people this painfully naive don't live to see thirty-five.

I hate 80% of the Childfree members. Not because they don't want to have children, but because they are the 'stupid cunts'. Jesus.

While the CF can be wanky as fuck I think they have a point this time. It's really not a good idea to walk into a comm, condescend to the members, and expect to be welcomed with open arms.

I do like how she assumes the CF hate her kid even though I doubt any of the member has ever met her kid, or even knows who she is.

Some really needs to start a [Bad username: childfree_neutral] on LJ, for those of us who don't really want to have kids but also don't want to see them chopped up and fried with onions.

Dammit. That should be childfree_neutral. I'm not even going to attempt the tags this time.

There's a childfree_zone comm, unfortunately not very active, which is childfree's more polite cousin. They don't do the hating and ranting stuff, but it's still definitely childfree.

Sigh. As soon as I read the post in question I knew it was going to end up on otf_wank.

I just got to this entry in my LJ (fleur_de_mort) and was reading all the wanky comments. Then I thought: "Wait! Check FW!" And lo and behold, it's at the VERY TOP of my friends page. XD

Wow, JanuaryGirl66 sure had a great idea there! I'd like to follow in her footsteps. What a swell way to make new friends!

Dear gay people,

I'm straight, but I don't mind if you bumfuck or fist or whatever. Really! Go right on ahead doing it! Also, I like musical theater and used to play softball. Neato, huh?

Dear furries,

I'm not a furry, but you go right on ahead dressing up as funny animals and such. I don't mind at all. Hey, are you looking at my dog? Stop looking at my dog.

Dear black people,

I'm white, but you can go right on ahead being black and living in my neighborhood and shopping at my mall and stuff. It's okay with me!

Now I just need to post these in all the relevant communities. I'm sure to be showered with praise for being such an openminded person!

I swear, there must be something in the air. I saw a thread on the NaNo boards yesterday with a guy being all "OMG this is STUPID why do people DO THIS stop DELUDING YOURSELVES this is CRAP blah blah blah," and being unable to come up with a good answer to the question "Um, if you hate the concept so much, WHY ARE YOU HERE?"

Is it a full moon or something?

WTG inventing terms that you have no right to touch.

Now, it was downright stupid of the OP to post where she did. I'm smacking myself in the head, here - she mentions that she has a child? In childfree? And she mentions being offended by "moo?" In childfree? Good grief.

But she most certainly has a right to "touch" those terms. I love the CF insistence that the offensive slurs they've come up with are somehow inviolable.

Last I checked, if some group is getting a term applied TO them by another group, the first group gets to decide if it's offensive and inappropriate or not. Not the group using the term.

I'm not a "non-parent".

"non-parent" implies that "parent" is the norm and anything else is deviation.


Yes, because being 'uncircumsized' means that circumsision is the norm and anything else is deviation.

Or something.

Either that or you were circumsized at one point in time, but have since gotten better.

*thinks about this for a second*

Actually, it does set up circumcision as the "norm." Because if it was the other way around, we'd be calling cut penises, "unwhole" or something. (Can't think of anything better than that at this late hour, 'm too tired.)

Has anyone thought to point out to them that they are, in fact, a deviation from the biological and social norm, and the OP isn't (at least not in that particular catagory)and watch them explode? Notice how this doesn't mean that they are "wrong" or "bad", just statistically deviant and scientifically abnormal. My skin tone is deviant as well. Who cares?

But of course, saying anything against them, their opinions, or their logic makes me an evil boob-nazi breederific oppressor, despite being 19 and having no children whatsoever, besides the kittens, who think I am their mother. (Lando even tries to nurse.)
