Analysis Of Sorry It's A Boy By Sarah Silverman

Great Essays
“Sorry, It’s a boy.” Such a phrase would have caused uproar, turmoil, and boycotts, but in the 21st century, it merely elicits a tenuous reaction of uproar. This phrase was utter by one of America 's foremost feminist, and in America’s biggest event, yet millions stood around and pass it as meaningless banter. Sarah Silverman 's intentions might not be explicitly suggesting the murder of men, but it is hard to ignore this double standard. While feminist have long argued that their cause is based on civil liberties and equality, the reality reflects that this is merely a facade to cover up their inner hatred. The myths spouted by them, their blatant hatred for men, and their deliberate disregard for scientific facts, as just some of the few reasons why feminist activist are not seen as a beacon of hope and change, but as a cult that uses deceptive tactics to lure in members, and destroy all those who can not be convinced.

This being is so mysterious that feminist have yet to find any evidence of its existence. Both men and women are given the same chances in society, and according to research, women are preferred above men when applying for a job purely based on their gender. If the patriarchy existed why are men the ones who are killed the most, who commit suicide the most, who lose their kids the most, and the ones that go to war the most. If men were the ones that created a system, why would men have to go through such hardships. Why are teenage boys the ones dying in war or being hit by their parents, this system many claim exist, if created by men, should make it so that men have all the advantages, but this is not true. Men perform higher risk jobs or suffer from more violence. Feminist claim that men have an advantage, but facts far oppose this

    Feminism is the theory that genders should be politically, economically, and socially equal to one another. Over the course of a couple decades the term Feminism has become the new “f-word” (introduction to Feminism: Opposing Viewpoints). Many are offended by the word and will not associate with it, even if that person is in support of gender equality. This is due to the overwhelming amount of stereotypes surrounding feminism. Feminists are categorized as man-hating lesbians with a desire to conquer and annihilate the male sex.…

    Even worse were the scores of “feminists” threatening people with rape and other atrocities just because they didn’t consider themselves feminists. How do we, as a movement, expect to get anyone to understand our cause if we are rude and threatening? Also, the definition of feminism has changed so often that I doubt key feminists from the first and…

    Society look past the big picture and everything that feminists are fighting for and just focuses on the hateful acts of misandrists disguised as feminists. Feminists don 't want hatred and they don 't hate men “What feminists really hate is the patriarchy--the web of institutions that systematically oppress women.” (Begley, 2014). There can not be peace with hate, so…

    Women are in fact unknowingly victims of this culture, which reflects the role of women in today 's society, which means that there is still widespread gender discrimination in society. Many have compared and linked feminism with the past, believing that it is an extreme movement for women to achieve equality, a thing that happened a hundred years ago. "This view is also wrong!” On the whole, men still occupy the mainstream in today 's movies and popular culture, women are suppressed by traditional thinking and male. The mainly reason is that the society in which we live is still essentially a male-centered society. To win the women 's rights to speak first of all women have to pay attention to their own, and have a clear vision and understanding of their own situation.…

    Participants of what would be called Anti-feminism have almost entirely flipped the main goals of Feminism and created their own definition of what it means. To the incorrectly educated people Feminism is the desire of women to take over the world. They believe the feminist movement provokes men and seeks to harm or oppress them as an entire gender. To the Anti-feminist the beliefs of feminists are over exaggerated and incorrect as a way to encourage misandry. With the right research I 'm sure even the ones of anti-feminism will see that these inquiries are…

    Men suffer when misandry is codified, and women suffer by losing male support for the noble goals of feminism” (Parton). However, one cannot put the blame of misconception solely on the rape culture; some feminists often joke about interchanging feminists and misandry. One questions the rationale of such jokes. In the TIME article, it explores the reason behind the inappropriate joke; feminists are trying to “riffing off the misguided popular notion that they are man-haters” (Begley). What started out as a deflection of…

    To be a woman is to be simultaneously hypersexualized and shamed for the sexualization. It is to be called a “prude” if it is rejected while also being called a “whore” if it used as a source of empowerment. There is no middle ground because this sexualization does not stem from women, but from men. Patriarchal power has continually forced upon women what they believe a woman should be, which often is the opposite of man. Femininity is considered to be bipolar of the masculine, so they assume that to be a woman is to lack male desires and characteristics.…

    Perhaps the shame is fueled by the earlier ideas about feminism. They were considered extremist and innocent who are victims of men. In this notion, the male are hated for being male and the women are weak and victims of male power. The stigma and the extreme view drove some of the earlier feminist to reconsider their position and a new concept of feminism, as Moi called it “equity feminism…

    It’s bad for feminism, written by Cathy Young, explifies the same message that Reissig gave on modern day feminism, its male-bashing. Today many women use this as feminism, they attack men with a strong focus on their personal behavior. This distracts from real issues that first-phase feminism would have wanted to address, such as equal pay and equal employment. This bashing obviously tends to sour men to modern day feminism, and even women. Many modern day feminists even complain of mens use of public transportation, how they take up to much room because the spread there legs open.…

    The overarching thesis of the article is broken up into a few sentences near the ends of the paper. Begley writes “What feminists really hates is the patriarchy -- the web of institutions that systemically oppress women. And to tear it down, we need as many allies as we can get. Telling half the population that we hate them, even in jest, is not the way to do that.” In the article, Begley illustrates a large group of feminists who use the word “misandry” to satirize the women who do not consider themselves feminists because they love men. Begley calls it an “inside, inside joke” amongst the feminist.…
