hookup culture itself is a result of the patriarchy and i have never denied that but cha is a way more moderate person than me and i see it as unproductive to use marxist-feminist talking points in a discord server like this because nobody gaf and if u wanna like bring people round to your arguments you have to make those arguments palatable to their political opinions. i still agree with everything i said but i also agree with you in saying that it is rooted in patriarchal systems. That cannot go without saying that sw is NOT liberating in its current form. i believe it can be made safe but thats an entirely different issue that were nowhere near figuring out yet
Yea my biggest thing about being nice and palatable is even if I try to sugarcoat, dilute, whatever to make my argument more digestible its either seen as weak from the opposition or ppl dgaf and stay unmoved in their opinion anyways. Id rather say what I gotta say and appeal to ppl that either dont know what to think, or were already shaky in the opposition. But Im glad we can agree on its roots in the patriarchy
