As a gay I give every guy permission to wear extremely tight pants, fishnets, and leather. Thanks

I remember some guy posting in ask/tell about how sick and tired he was of straights overwhelming the leather scene and loving up their events and he might of even used the term cultural appropriation. Sorry sickos, your extremely weird sex expos are now main stream so get used to the fact suburban moms are going to come with their kids and complain about the loud music

the really funny thing with complaining about appropriation, is that you're essentially guaranteeing that the majority culture will never, ever be influenced by the minority culture, in any positive way, because bastardization is like the first step to introducing something foreign

and since it's not appropriation when the minority culture takes from the majority, that's just normal poo poo, you're also guaranteeing that all cultural impact will be in exactly one direction, majority -> minority

you get so hosed in the head about racism, that you're literally enabling cultural imperialism, and giving it a nice 'progressive' curtain to hide behind

Have you considered that cultural imperialism is just as inconsistent and ill-defined a concept as cultural appropriation

This kind of cargo cult anthropology is universally incomprehensible imo

Anyone getting a bee up their bonnet about uppity college kids complaining about cafeteria food needs to take a chill pill and try and put themselves in their place for a moment.
