Dude blogs...

This Is Lady Gaga, People Are Sick Of Her

I just thought that this was somehow appropriate, I don't know why, really. I guess I like seeing the myth of GaGa busted, in whatever fashion, because I'm tired of her being the "thinking woman's pop icon" (see post waaay earlier). But I think also it's really funny that this post about gay icons and gender boundary pushers should appear on a site that is WAY sexist and often pretty racist, but really kind of indifferent (beyond the pretty tame sissy jokes) to gays. Whatever. And yeah, I do find these dude blogs entertaining. I don't think they promote healthy images of women, but still, they're a guilty pleasure. You know what though, I did notice that, during the Rihanna getting beat up by Chris Brown (punk ass bitch) uproar, the most vehemently anti-Brown posts were from these dude blogs that I visit (wwtdd.com and IDLYITW). The male bloggers at these sites had so much hatred and anger for what Brown did, and for men who would lay a hand on a woman in violence, that I was kind of stunned. Especially since like, 60% of their posts has some kind of borderline rough sex joke. I guess I should feel heartened though, by the fact that even these guys are like, fuck no, there is no excuse to beat a woman ever.
