For women, getting angry is socially unacceptable, even when the anger is over violence, discrimination, misogyny, and other forms of oppression. Anger is unacceptable because angry women are women in touch with their passion and power, especially in relation to men, which threatens the entire patriarchal order. It’s unacceptable because it forces men to confront the reality of male privilege and women’s oppression and their involvement in it, even if only as passive beneficiaries. Women’s anger challenges men to acknowledge attempts to trivialize oppression with “I was only kidding.” And women’s anger is unacceptable to men who look to women to take care of them, to prop up their need to feel in control, and to support them in their competition with other men. When women are less than gracious and good-humored about their own oppression, men often feel uncomfortable, embarrassed, at a loss, and therefore vulnerable.

True but limited.  Because white women can get angry at people of color, neh?  That’s socially acceptable, even if the man of color is the POTUS. 

Race is relevant to the patriarchal order.

I pitched this to DC for a laugh years back. The idea was that, like Death of Superman, we had Rape of Wonder Woman; a twenty-two page rape scene that opened up into a gatefold at the end just like Superman did.

—Mark Millar

This is an actual quote.  That he said. 

Lois Lane is a dirty slut unworthy of Superman’s divinity and Wonder Woman should be raped.  For a laugh.  Oh haha.  Rape is so funny, Millar.

Honestly, how this man exists in this world without getting punched by every woman he meets is beyond me.  Horrible human being.

In another world, far beyond this one….Wonder Woman punches this guy in the face and then Lois writes a story about what it looked like when he got punched in the face.

Then, to finish it off, Superman punches him for slut shaming the love of his life and joking about how hilarious sexual violence would be against his best friend.

You know, for a laugh.

I actually googled this to make absolutely sure it was a legit quote. It is. I feel sick.
