Thursday Internet Tradition: Not Quite Feminist Phil

By Mary on February 23, 2012

Hoydens are aware of all Internet traditions! But we share our hard-won cultural knowledge!

This week, meet Not Quite Feminist Phil. Phil loves women! And feminism means loving women, right? Or it should. So he’s kind of like a feminist. Here’s some of Phil’s right on not quite feminist thoughts:

Smiling pale skinned man, captioned Women should make just as much money as regular people
Women should make just as much money as regular people

Smiling pale-skinned man, captioned The Pill was a liberating invention, I never need a condom
The Pill was a liberating invention, I never need a condom

Got your own Not Quite Feminist lines for Phil?

    How about “I’m happy to help with the housework – she just has to ask!”

    Eugh, Hedgepig! Well played!

    I suggest “You’re so sexy when you get all fired up about rape culture”.

    Dear lords of the nine hells, it hurts! It hurts because it’s so close before veering off into fuckery :(

    A variation on Hedgepig’s – I’m happy to help with the housework, just tell me what to do. This has started so many arguments in our house.

    The “I never need a condom”(birth control is a female-only concern) one sends an icy chill down my spine. I’ve never been involved with the blokes I know who think like that, but *shudder*.

    “Of course no one deserves to be raped. Still, you shouldn’t wear really tight clothes or go out alone after dark. It’s common sense!”

    I often babysit the kids when my wife is busy.
