Movement in Sweden to Ban “Sexist” Ads

Story here. Excerpt:

"Sweden, considered a world leader in gender equality, should ban all advertising that could be considered sexist, according to a new government-commissioned report that suggests the creation of a law "banning advertising containing sexist content." Sexist advertising is defined as any message distributed "with a commercial aim" that can be "construed as offensive to women or men."

Imagine the possibilities for banning! No more feminine hygiene commercials, and no more beer ads either! This law will never fly, not even in Sweden, the world's most celebrated gynocracy.

And, who knew that advertising "has a commercial aim?"

No, that's not a shameless reference to the network E!, it's me answering E with emphasis. Do I pass, anthony? BTW, I apologize for bringing up this abomination yet again, but I was just wondering... are all of the victims in Teeth white males?

Yes you passed. You didn't mention Aquaman.

As for Teeth, all the victims were male. The evil was perpetuated by the lead actress with some help from a Rottweiler and some sea crabs. [The aftermath of the mutilation was most disturbing]

I won't offer anymore details.

Any other movie scenes are probably too graphic to mention. I'm trying to give you guys a "PG" version.

No need to apologize about asking me about this movie. Its a disturbing piece of modern cinema. I watched the movie to gain a full perspective in terms of what I was protesting. I'm certainly not suggesting that we ALL must watch the movie. Its an individual choice.

Let me be honest. I was actually more offended when I heard about the movie. The premise behind the film might be more disturbing than actually watching the flick.

FYI: Camille Paglia actually had some minor input in this movie. Her name appears on the credits.

When "Dawn "Okeefe" researches Vagina dentata Paglia's name appears as the writer who defines the myth on the web page. This description was her contribution to this movie.

Were they all white? I'm just curious. I'm convinced that the only way a piece of trash like this would ever get released is if all the victims were white, otherwise people would view it as a hate crime. Even though, that's still technically what it is, even if all the victims are white.

They were all white. No prominant black actors in the movie. Any black actor was placed simply as a movie extra.

There are a few funny clips from the movie starting to show up on the 'Net.

This link below depicts a classroom scene where the heroine chick with the teeth argues that school textbooks can't show a picture of an actual vagina because "girls are naturally modest by nature."

This flick is all about the multiple and conflicted sexuality of female raunch culture.

Too bad the filmmakers didn't get Scarlet or Hillary to star ... it would have made tons of cash.

I'm glad the film isn't doing as well as anticipated. What a sick world of double standards we live in where a movie will blah blah blah about how a woman's anatamony can't be shown in a textbook, then show severed manhood. Right... that's not hypocrisy. I pray on a daily basis for the failure of the film.

BTW, thx Anthony. Now we know that this movie truly is a hate crime in the truest sense of the term. Calling it such would not be a misnomer. It's a film which depicts all caucasian males to be sexual predators (or not, in the case of the football player), and says the caucasian males are the only group of people that "deserve" castration. Sounds a little similar to the beliefs Hitler spread about the Jews in pre WWII Germany. I'm definitely going to allude to this in my blog "Males: Hate Crime's Defenseless Victims".

Given that this much is now known about the film, isn't there some sort of Human Rights Commission in the USA which you could complain about the film to?

I've always tried to error on the side of exposing my enemy's hypocrisy; hence, I love cultural artifacts like "Teeth."

What more could an MRA wish for than a campy movie that graphically trivializes castrating men?

Other than tonight's State of the Eunuch Address by the Lame Duck Shrub?

Bush only wishes he had that girl's dentata.

This film definitely is evidence of the unjust hatred of men, and the glorification of violence against men, regardless of its extent. Since I was a kid, it's made me sick how sexual violence against males is considered comedy.

But don't worry, guys. I'm getting lots of ideas for Disintegration, and it's coming together nicely. Hell, I make Lichtenstein look like a first grader when it comes to writing. I've gotten him beat when it comes to character development, plot, and originality. He didn't even think up the idea for his movie. What a loser! But speaking of the film it's inspired me to write, I don't even care if people hate it. I'm just writing this to prove a point, and to cause controversy. I'm going to wait to get verbally attacked for being "misogynistic" then I'll point out the countless misandric injustices of the same nature in films which no one seems to give a damn about. Then we'll see them try desperately to get out of the corner they've been backed into, to no avail.

I firmly believe in challenging such nonsense but no laws were broken. Its not an issue for a "Human Rights Agency" because the film is fake. I hate this trash as much as you, but freedom of expression/speech/press gives this movie every right to exist. Censorship is a feminist domain. I'm not suggesting you support censorship but in a free society we all must accept the expression each individual possesses even if we find such ideology uncomfortable.

While we need to accept constitutional freedom, we also have a right to protest this garbage. As far as I'm concerned your doing a great job!

that same logic will allow my movie to be made. I guess no laws really were broken. But I must admit I do feel violated as a man whenever garbage like this is allowed to be made. I guess it's up to me to show people how sick they are. Thx, Anthony. It's funny because I used to wonder why I had creative talents; they seemed completely useless to me. Now I have purpose which inspires me to write more art, and art which can be used to help our cause.

How do I know? Because it always works out that way in practice, doesn't it? Look who is proposing this ban: "special government rapporteur Eva-Maria Svensson" This character is one of Scandinavia's leading feminists, an Associate Professor of Law at the University of Göteborg. In other words yet another of those professional misandrists and agitators for women's supremacy that have embedded themselves deeply in the world of legal academia where they can take root like weeds safe in the knowledge that they have a job for life and nobody will challenge them.

Want to bet that it is only ads that upset women - particularly those hyper-sensitive souls like Svensson and her cronies, to whom anything remotely masculine is deeply offensive - that will get banned?

I think maybe "Teeth" has inspired a lot of emotion because the emasculation of men that it portrays is so graphic and direct.

Frankly I just view it as a cultural metaphor for the gender wars, conflicted sexuality, and how acceptible and unquestioned feminist ideas have become.

I would argue that VAWA, the Family Courts, the DV Industry, and a male-only military draft are far greater (if indirect) forms of violence against men than this silly, campy movie.

The real vagina dentatas are the CuntgressMEN in D.C. whose votes provide the "teeth" (and money) for continued legal misandry.

The problem for me is the portrayal that ALL men are perverts and rapists which somehow justifies a brutal fate.

Maybe when Sen. Joe Biden hosts the next congressional hearings for the reauthorization of VAWA 2010-2015, you can get on the invited list of experts providing testimony.

Better yet, just call Kim Gandy at N.O.W. and ask her out to lunch.

For basically the same reasons. It portrays all men as perverts and rapists (white men specifically), and tries to pass off the worst fate a man can suffer as "comedy" and "entertainment". Only a saddist psycho or a true man hater could enjoy a film like that. It also bugs me how films will always reward the character who performs this unspeakable act... Enter my movie.

Well, at least Roy was nice enough to finally compare that stupid movie (that is, Teeth) to pornography. I was waiting for that comparison. The movie could be classified as "torture porn". BTW, thx for telling me about Deep Throat, Roy. I find myself laughing to myself every now and then when it pops into my thoughts. That makes life a little lighter.
