Calling All Gender Nazis - Are You a Gender Nazi ? (Props to PostModern Critic on the post. Booya !)

January 12th 2007 07:30
Having seen Epiphanie Bloom (a.k.a PostModern Critic) rap, I decided to check out her Deconstruct Yourself Today post (which, might I add, was totally PHAT ! Check it out using the blue link). It was there she urged me, unrelenting, to visit Qirin's crazy quiz. It was there I found out the truth..

You are a Gender Nazi. Your boundary-crossing lifestyle inspires awe in your friends and colleagues. Or maybe they're just scared you will kick their asses for using gender-specific language. Either way, the wife-beater helps.

Yes, I will shamelessly profess that I am a Gender Nazi. What does this mean? Apparently I am totally GANGSTA !! Like I've been telling everyone. We all know Fridays are supposed to be devoted to the special, Social Critique but Epiphanie's post was so enthralling I just had to post this tribute.

Sadly, as a Grassroots Activist, we are worlds apart, but I just can't help being so damn 'hood'. Strangely, I don't pimp, I don't have 'bitches', and other than my four months of boxing, I am quite defenseless. Does this quiz know me better than I know myself? Do I use my 'extensive' training to my advantage? Maybe not, but I will now.

If anyone else out there is a Gender Nazi - please post up your experiences. Out of 1100 odd people, only 28% of us are 'real' enough to conform to old-fashioned gender typecasts. Peace out, homies !

Yo S to tha C,

*contemplates trying to do this whole message in rap, but, alas, my white girl background will have to come out eventually*

Lol, I'm really glad you enjoyed the test, and I'm flattered you mentioned me in your blog! I will return the favour one day... D

I see all the PoMo types as compatible as they all indicate an interest in asking questions and exploring the construction of reality.

It's all about the Q to tha U to tha E to tha...

Keeping it pomo,
PiffyB

Yo, Bro AB ... Antonio B Boy ... Snoop Critty Critic ...

I received one of the most appalling PMs from a Blogger who will remain nameless ... suffice to say that this private message was hardly enlightening... (As in, I had no Epiphanie(s) reading it ... (Had a few laughs at this girl's propensity to be a critic of the post-modern Diasporatic type ...

Anyway ... So I sent this PM on to the powers that control this blog ... and just wrote back to this little girl with ...

'Whatever ...

Now funnily enough, I have not heard from her since ...

And the powers that be have informed me I should forward all such vitriolic bile on to them and they will moniter this little girl like kindergarten teachers monitor a young girl in nappies who has snuck into an area way beyond her mental capacity ???

I just wonder if the light shining out of her own arsehole has blinded her to the truth ... Although I doubt it ... I reckon her arsehole would be as proportionately tight as her morals are mouth are loose ???

What made me think of BHP and SLAG just then??? * Or why my toe is bleeding and I need a TOE-RAG??? ...

Cue Manfred Mann's Earth Band ... 'Blinded by the light of my own ignorance and utter stupidity and my judgemental warped femmo nature??? ...

Wetting a slutties panties here ... * At least slutties and lushies put out ...

a bit more than hot air ... ***

David ...

Geez. I had no idea. What a strange thing that should have happened !

I imagine you were very angry. She obvious had a problem with your *ahem* very liberal prose. I mean liberal in the sense of liberty, freedom, poetic license. I do not mean to call you ultra-conservative, though if you were, I would delight in that too.

Sorry to hear about your cross-roads with Piffy B. I am really just astounded that she did that !

Hope all works out brother !

David-

I found your message mean-spirited, rude, ill-informed, misogynistic, and possibly homophobic - which explains my disinterest in getting back to you. Nevertheless, after enjoying a lengthy break from my usual routine I've decided to be courteous enough to respond, if for no other reason than to defend myself.

> I received one of the most appalling PMs

I remember that Notes on a Scandal had just been released - say, couldn't you have been a little more original? I'm sure Patrick Marber is sick of people parodying his material.

> from a Blogger who will remain nameless

The technique works better if you don't actually go on to name the person you're referring to...

> post-modern Diasporatic type ...

I think you mean postmodern and diasporic - though that said, I'm not Jewish.

> 'Whatever ...

That wasn't quite all of your message, was it? It's funny how in all your reproduced messages of mine, something is missing - whether it's a title or some other small detail.

> Now funnily enough, I have not heard from her since ...

It amuses me that you were surprised I didn't want anything to do with you after that.

> And the powers that be have informed me I should forward all such vitriolic bile on to them

Vitriolic bile? Hardly. I calmly protested against your technique of lifting my imagery for crude and tactless purposes, stopping short of calling you a hack. Considering I was quite offended at the time (right now I couldn't care less) I think I let you off easy.

> and they will moniter this little girl like kindergarten teachers monitor a young girl in nappies who has snuck into an area way beyond her mental capacity ???

Perhaps you were still a bit paranoid that you were being monitored by the Orble administration and were just projecting - I have had no reason to think that I'm being special paid 'special attention'.

> as her morals are mouth are loose ???

I see you got a bit excited and stopped writing in grammatically correct sentences. Btw, your low blows say much more about you than they ever will about me.

> I need a TOE-RAG??? ...

Is this meant to be a reference to Jake Gyllenhaal in drag? That's all I can think of, and I missed your other capitalised catch-phrases as well.

> 'Blinded by the light of my own ignorance and utter stupidity

If this was a reference to me believing Jake to have a male partner, you're mistaken - I have refrained from speculating over his sexuality one way or another.

> Wetting a ******* panties here ... *

I'm very sorry you feel the need to pollute your writing with such garbage.
