Phrases that immediately make my brain shut off in exasperation and turn me into the mental equivalent of that chewing deer gif

virgin-eater:

rabbitfeminist:

autumn-and-eve:

therapsida:

  • “speciesism”
  • “vanilla privilege”
  • “human privilege”
  • “reverse racism”
  • “misandry”
  • “Zionist genocide”
  • so much more

me, immediately upon hearing the above

is vanilla privilege not a thing? I’d always heard it was but maybe I’ve been listening to douchebags. Would someone explain further?

“Vanilla privilege” isn’t a thing because there’s no system of oppression based around condemning kinky sex, just a lot of people who think it’s weird and freaky- with the exception of some anti-BDSM feminist groups, but that doesn’t make a system of privilege/oppression. Not counting anal sex because that’s largely just homophobia.

No system of oppression based around condemning kinky sex?  I guess our culture of kinkphobia doesn’t count?

Funny, because I was thinking just today about the fucking vanilla people in my life and how they take so much shit for granted and feel so free to just super casually disparage and vilify my tastes and my sexuality.

I’m fucking unimpressed, tumblr.
