:kaukau: I'm familiar with what the word means, but I don't know what's offensive about someone having that as a name. I thought that there was a secondary meaning, like that it was the name of a faction in some sort of television show, considering that a lot of people have been throwing around images of Sailor Moon upon bringing it up. And if it's just a screen name, I don't see the big deal, because I read it and I thought he was just being completely random, especially with the random spelling and whatnot, and I've seen weirder screen names on the internet, including BZPower.

given all of the discussion regarding feminism over the past couple days and knowing the views on that subject that have been expressed by the member in question, using "The Patriarchy" as a blog name really just comes off as politically-motivated trolling imo

When someone names himself after a system that is actively causing pain and oppression upon you and your loved ones - and is treating it flippantly - it's pretty easy to take offense at it! This doesn't make the person completely reprehensible or unforgivable, but we've every right to be offended and angry about it.

Sailor Moon fights for love and justice! And so do we!!
