as far as taking photos and filming such women....i think he was exaggerating and trying to express how much he thought they were fine.
not a goddamn thing wrong with that.
i have to admit, fine hotties in libraries are a turn-on.

It should matter to people if other people tell them something that they're doing makes them feel uncomfortable. It should matter to them that many girls don't feel welcome here. It should call for some self-assessment if some people are acting like this is their space, not a space they share with people, people from all around the world, including women of certain ethnicities or nationalities that may find it very offensive.
I don't think he was "exaggerating", he said he wouldn't do that because it wasn't permitted but expressed his willingness to do so.
We don't get to decide what other people may find offensive or uncomfortable.
You're creating a male-dominated environment in which very few people raised their voices against a bunch of males ganging up against a woman from simply raising her voice against something she doesn't find ok.
And when that doesn't work to silence me, the attacks on my character begin. This is the classist strategy of the privileged.
That is worrying, especially because it's a representation of how things are in the real world.
I'm not asking people to change their entire lives, but to have some respect for me and other girls who are or may want to be posting here.
I don't think I have to remind you that SY is very popular among girls because of Kim Gordon's lyrics about women issues.
The strategy works because any girl reading this will be afraid of being treated the same way as I have.
If they want to act like that, like they own the space and it doesn't matter what anybody feels, if it's not important for them to listen, I can only say it's really sad and it makes me worry about women in their "real" lives.
