“now using a sketch suggesting white women use black men's bodies for sex”

This does happen. A lot. And is worth acknowledging and talking about as it’s a huge issue for my community. I have no problem with this being called out and I’m glad they did.

“(meanwhile, men in mass exploit, degrade, buy, sell and objectify female bodies on an hourly basis across the world):”

Both are true. Both are wrong. Both are worth being discussed. I’m not equating white women who exploit black men with the objectification of female bodies- I’m saying the objectification of female bodies doesn’t give the white women that sketch was making fun of carte blanche (accident- Lol) to fetishize and exploit black men.

“last week that pointed to the absurdity of white women equating their oppression with racial oppression.”

Idk your race, but if you’re not black it may be best not to speak on that if you’re not well informed (I say this as politely as possible, and mean no offense)

It also happens a lot that black men fetishize and use white women for sex.

I think of you want to have that particular discussion you should look into researching it more. You can call it mutually exploitative or try to deflect all you want but there’s literal slave mentality psychology behind why black men allow themselves to be fetishized by white women. Which is why I said if you’re not black maybe don’t try to have that discussion as I highly doubt you’re well informed on it. These types of subjects are why a lot of woc acknowledge the difference between feminism and white feminism. (This is not to say that white women are all people who only engage in “white feminism” it’s saying that a lot of them don’t seem to be able to acknowledge racial issues like this- and I’m not particularly interested in having this discussion with someone who coming from a POV where you don’t seem to want to understand from a black perspective)

If you were a woman, might help you to see sexism.

Yet you only seem to care about men.

Then either your reading comprehension skills are flawed or you read what you want to read. I really don’t care either way what you think. I’m a multifaceted individual- I can care about feminism and also care about black men. Black men are my family of course I care about them. What I don’t care for is not wasting my time going back with racist white feminists, which is why I’m done talking to you.

I'm not racist. But women get called out all the damn time for defending men, including the men they marry or are related to. But because you make it about race, and threaten to call anyone who disagrees a racist, you think you ought to get a pass for your blatant misogyny. I don't buy it, miss "white women produce racial porn because they're so privileged". You hate women. You may love people of your own race, but you hate women as a class and don't believe in female oppression. Call me racist all the fuck you want, misogynist.
