Feelings on NOFX?

[LucidStrike]

How was that statement sexist?

saynig blow me is sexist i think , what if a girl was reading this , or even a guy , why should someone tell someone to blow them because they like a shitty ass band ???? fuck that

Pretty much. Regardless of sex, it's fucked up that people, anarchists even, think that's fine to say.

More generally speaking, it doesn't help with sexual repression when sexual acts are constantly put in the context of malice and social domination.

blow doesn't nec mean suck off, k, k but it can be

Sex is sex, speech is speech.
One of the Dutch swear words is 'kanker', which can translate to 'fuck' or 'fucking'. Both uses of the word are distinct different uses. Kanker = cancer.
I do not see how saying 'blow me' as an exclamation of rebellion equals the act of oral sex in a literal way.

Hah. I'm gonna have to agree with Rathryn on this one. I would hope that any one reading this thread would be strong enough not to take a NOFX fan yealling "Blow me!" seriously... In fact I've never understood these "saying anything related to sex is sexist" positions. If I am able to say "I'd certainly like to kill that man." I should be allowed to say "I'd certainly like to fuck that woman." without fear of being arbitrarily labeled sexist...

Either that's vacuous or I missed something. Are you one of those anti-PC people? =/

What I mean by strong is that if your seriously offended by someone saying "blow me" in a manner that is evdently not serious then you need to check yourself. That level of sensitivity is just silly. In fact I'd say that it's so silly that anyone who subscribes to it can LICK MY TAINT.

You're so tough.

"Fuck you" is a rapist threat!


He who limits my speech is a usurper and a tyrant and I tell him to blow me.

[dwtcos]

Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah....
I've state my opinion. There is nothing macho, manly or sexist about it. People who are THAT easily offended need a reality check. End of story. I'm not anti-pc. In fact if you looked into the things I've said on this website you'd find that I'm more PC than not. But I am against PC extremism. I'm not macho emotionless or against sensitivity. But I don't care who you are....if your THAT easily offended than I have absolutely no plans of committing myself to any lame ass form of self censorship that will satisfy you. "Blow me" doesn't offend me one bit and I have no idea how anyone could be offended by it.

'Fuck you' isn't imperative. Hell, is there even a verb in that?

LOL@Blah blah blah blah blah. As if I posted a wall of text.

I'm not telling anyone what they can and can't say. I'm saying that it SHOULDN'T be said, given social context.

Anyway, I don't care to communicate with you anymore. Have a great day.

Blow me.

I just realized that any of the validity my arguement may have possessed was lost from the beggining because I was defending the statement made by a guy who loves NOFX [/shudder]
You win LucidStrike q:

[disfuck]

its just how it sounded to mee , or just how dumb it was used in defending how nofx was good and everyone else should blow them

Was referring to you, actually.
You yourself mentioned context in the case of the use of the word kanker in Dutch, but disregard said context in English, so it seems.

"Miserabalist"? WTF is that supposed to mean?

I didn't disregard anything. Consensual sex itself shouldn't be controversial at all. It's the social context. Like I said, while sex continues to be put in the context of malice and social domination, society will remain sexually repressive.

While we're on context, why would anyone say that phrase in the context it was said? Why would it be presented with intention to offend? Would it regularly be said in the context of an insult, had it no real potential to offend? Why might one find it offensive in that context?

i heard fuck meant

Fornication

Consent Of
King

...the legend goes, that couples that were having children were required to first obtain royal permission (usually from a local magistrate or lord) and then place a sign somewhere visible from the road in their home that said "Fornicating Under Consent of King", which was later shortened to "FUCK". This story is hard to document but has persisted in oral and literary traditions for many years; however, it has been demonstrated to be an urban legend.

The word "fuck" did not come from any of:

* "File Under Carnal Knowledge"
* "Fornication Under the Christian King"
* "Fornication Under the Command of the King"
* "Fornication Under Carnal/Cardinal Knowledge"
* "False Use of Carnal Knowledge"
* "Felonious Use of Carnal Knowledge"
* "Felonious Unlawful Carnal Knowledge"
* "Full-On Unlawful Carnal Knowledge"
* "For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge"
* "Found Under Carnal Knowledge"
* "Found Unlawful Carnal Knowledge"
* "Forced Unlawful Carnal Knowledge" (referring to the crime of rape)

The Oxford English Dictionary states that the ultimate etymology is uncertain, but that the word is "probably cognate" with a number of native Germanic words with meanings involving striking, rubbing, and having sex.
