The groove seems like something Red Hot Chili Peppers would write, I know they were influenced by Fugazi, and RHCP is the only reason I know about Fugazi.
Hey, guys. I read all your paragraphs. Kept me entertained. But then I had to relisten to this song, because I missed it due to reading. Your deriving attention away from your artist of choice. Chill out with the bickering, your veiws are obsolete to the human race as a whole. People are humans, shit happens, people are mean, life starts, life goes on, life ends, and someone is born in to replace you.
I know some uglies who wouldn't mind a little more "suggestion", haha, just saying, I love my Fugazi, Minor Threat, Embrace, Dischord and underground, independent music but I'm also an adult who don't buy into some of this "I'm so objectified" nonsense, bleaghh, I hope Iam McKaye and Guy Picciato have grown out of this phase and learned to enjoy a hot girl in a miniskirt, cheers!
When do you ever hear feminists taking on the hard questions like female circumcision,honor killings in Muslim society in the East and West.The ironic thing is that more people see women as merely sexual objects now thanks to feminism,it was feminists who promoted 'sexual liberation',and what do we get now,14 year olds watching porn and jacking off to Rihanna dancing around like a hooker on tv?Simone de Beauvoir can suck my balls.Equality between men and women is a different thing from feminism.
@DustyAndPistolPete It's called society and that's a bit deep for "American" society, so where do you live again? I can go on... but that may spark a major debate including my own imprisonment, so my lips are sealed from this point forward!
@DustyAndPistolPete thank you, i couldn't have said it better, people really need to stop using this song as a fuckin anthem for their justification of what is ALSO unfair treatment of someone just based off of gender, (Feminism= women pretty much falsely accusing men of abuse because of generations passed) and just enjoy the goddamn music, look I'm pretty sure fugazi didn't write this song so faggot retard trannies who just now got there vag can argue about women's rights over a website.
Ian MacKaye of FUGAZI delivers an epic tale of a European tour threatened by a massive attack of Polish skinheads. Check it out at The Worst Gig (WorstGig.com).
@aworldanonymous i didn't misunderstand the issue, was just goofing on his comment.. bottom line though is that neither men nor women are perfect. i think overall it simply comes down to balance. dominance on either side of the coin doesnt change much because its still the same coin. it is the way it is because that is the way it's supposed to be, even if some dont like it. natural order of things and such. goodbye
@TheThroney You're misunerstanding the issue, they don't hate men, they stand against a male dominated society, and in reality a male dominated society hurts everyone, men and women alike.
surely that outside pic is the legendary summer venue in DC called Ft.Reno.anyoneknow4 sure.some of the fugazi ft. reno shows were def massive,and it was always on hot clear summer night.lucky us eh?
I click on the video and I'm getting off on the awesome music then I make the mistake of looking at some of the comments (you would think I would know better by now) and realize why I hate people so much. Douchebags is the only word that comes to mind. Maybe fucking douchebags.
Does anyone know where I can find the full version of the live recording of this song from the documentary "Don't Need You: The Herstory of Riot GRRRL" ... ?
@Borgescope I never understood how those two were friends. I think it's just because they grew up together. Rollins, to me, seems like everything Ian would hate. Not because he "sold out", just in general. But I think we all have a special place in our hearts for our friends from the neighborhood, regardless of what they become. Rollins is a knob, Ian rules.
Fugazi is one of the most thought provoking bands out there. They aren't contained by a genera. They are most definitely not emo but even if you think so i don't think it matters. If anything they are philosophers. They sing to a greater truth not to a genera. Much like R.T.A. you just cant classify and at this deep of a level theres no need to. One damn good band.
3 minutes ago it's more of an indictment on the superficiality of our pop culture and the ones waving flags are just as hypocritical as the unsuspectingly obvious retards-even hardcore punks are guilty by association
u live goddamn florida-of course yer body is the only trait u have-superficial bad oppurtunist-were ya hangin out those tatas? showin some ass? u betcha-it's that slimy-i coulda told ya that home girl! most don't think beyond there dick and chicks don't think beyond thier money shaker! worse in cali the price for constant sunshine and good weather? get usta it and make a buck-u hot momma! be in my underfunded homemade porn any day! that's sooo charmin !!!! i just got the charm like dat!
oddly enough i never took this to be a song about rape. because off suffering their words, their eyes, their hands, i dress as plainly as possible most of the time. it's not my fault i'm built like this. at least i've gotten to the point i'll just put a man's hand in near breaking position if he tries to touch me. what can i say i live in a rough neighborhood. :D i've always taken it as a commentary of women like myself and how we cn be made uncomfortable by what society accepts.

Sorry, I just think the whole "feminist ideology" is a bit fascist. It's a whole bunch of chicks bitchin about how they want to be treated like men, but they aren't willing to do the same work as men. They aren't willing to be strong in the face of damnation, they aren't willing to be the backbone of society, they aren't willing to go get killed for their beliefs. I'm not sexist or anything, but people who ask for more work and don't want to do it are stupid.
@kbaptiste28 I'm a man and I consider myself a feminist. what you think is feminist ideology is really just the stereotype, sure you'll find certain feminists who will fit into your idea of what feminism is but it's more complex than that. "strong in the face of damnation"? that ironically is fascistic language.
Feminism is utterly genderless it is just a philosophical stance that centralises on gender inequality, it's a moral question not a gender question asshat.
@fagrot sooo rape and sexual harassment has nothing to do with gender? do you know who does the raping and who gets raped? shut the fuck up "fag" rot, you have no idea what you're talking about.
@bunerzissou Of course it is, a man can be raped by a man or a women and vice versa, it's genderless.
You ignoramus.
Claiming to be a fair minded "feminist", yet attempted a homosexual dig, sure got the high ground there boss, hypo-fuckin-crite. The name is just a device, shows up people like you for what you are.
@fagrot yeah rape is soo genderless because men get raped equally as much as women. you're so fucking stupid you swear it's a device, i was highlighting the fact that you use the word so freely it's in your name.
@bunerzissou@bunerzissou@bunerzissou You've missed the point or perhaps just trying to answer your own question like a politician, why would you feel the need to highlight it, what possible service way is it relevant? It could as easily mean lung cancer, thus showing the level of your intellect AGAIN.
Your point was the rape is gender specific and it isn't, neither is sexual harassment.... quoting you: "sooo rape and sexual harassment has nothing to do with gender? do you know who does the raping and who gets raped?" unless you can prove otherwise with your "gender theory class" insights?
I'm not a betting man but ill put $50 on the fact you can't, shit head.
@fagrot the point is that rape IS a gender issue because MORE women get raped than men. Do you know the lyrics of this song? "Suffer your interpretation of what it is to be a MAN", this song is about gender roles and how they play out in regards to the body and sexuality. morals? go ask a trans person what they think of morality, it's your goddamn morals that target queer people in the first place.
@zarkoasenov No we just have women that stand by and let the Hitlers and Stalins of the world due what they want, we just have SS wives who paint on canvases of human skin. Women make up half of the population, any actions taken by men are equally the fault of women who do nothing to opose it.
@swimsuitissue123 right....cause feminism isn't about women being pissed off at men, and books are generally thrown into that subject as well. Learn to not speak out of your ass.
@ragingharlot13 "women being pissed off at men". Yeah you are right, there is a whole political movement based on that exact sentiment and nothing else. It goes no deeper than that.. Seriously are you brainless? Like I said, research the subject before making throw away comments - it also helps men. And it's not about being 'pissed off' at all men, it is just a rejection of certain sexist ideoligies which can also be held by OTHER WOMEN aswell as SOME men.
@ragingharlot13 It's kinda like saying gay people who believe in gay rights are pissed off at ALL straight people and if you are straight and believe in gay rights then you hate yourself. Pish mate, pish.
@swimsuitissue123 No but if you had half a brain, you'd know that SOME women will use it as a means of getting back at men, for the sake of spite itself, and yes, kinda hate men, and most feminist movements ARE radical, and over the top, so shut the fuck up and enjoy music, instead of fucking using it as an anthem for your senseless justification of the feminist movement, look I'm not saying go out there and beat women, i'm just saying there is little reason for feminism today
@LJfromIB You're just stupid. Look at your ignorant comment to DustyAndPistolPete too about 'trannies' and 'faggots' nice. The reason people are arguing about it on this song's page is because of the fucking lyrics.. You seem to be the one who is full of hate? You make a lot of throwaway claims but if you were actually to look at things like - rape conviction rates and difference in pay then maybe you would see things from a different perspective.
@swimsuitissue123 Regardless people need to stop fighting over this dumb shit, inequality does exist, sometimes it's men who get the short end of the stick, thats all I'm saying! Im just saying women aren't the only ones who get fucked over, and it doesn't "serve them right" neccesarrily if certain men are beaten and bruised with the abuse by women, or other men, because it's not about vengeance on innocent people, it's about establishing a proper balance,
@swimsuitissue123 Oh and thats bullshit, like 5 or 6 of the top 15 richest people are women, and most pay differences are due to the fact that women haven't been in their position as long as men and that's due to only the recent incorporation of women in a lot more areas of the work force, in fact women's percentage of pay increases now far outweigh men's so please find some facts before putting out an outdated claim. The Rate in which women have been getting raises is steadfast in the past 8yrs
@swimsuitissue123 thank you kind person for putting that straight, however i'm not so much a feminist as a humanist we all have our rights and we each have a common goal, simple as that
@themousemaster Feminism can and is very much a part of humanism. Feminism merely attempts to achieve social equality among the sexes, allowing women to have the same rights as men. They go hand in hand really.
@phoenixsingerpdx well yeah, but lots of women want power over men and it turns the whole movement into a joke. I'm not siding with anyone though it is what it is i guess. But i do see your point.
many, myself being one of them. caring abot female rights is not just for females. many activists caring about desegregation of blacks were white. read history. social issues are the responsibility of all humans, regardless of if it supports your side.
yes but in this song he is talking about women being sexually harassed walking down the street, which tends to not happen to males, unless its other males that do it.
@bluehairspaz did you say "sexual harassment"? This is another example where the issues are being dictated by the media. Try this. Go back to the late 1980's, which was before the term "sexual harassment" entered the airwaves. And, as expected NOBODY was talking about that subject until it became media headlines. HOWEVER, in the late 80's, the media WAS abusing men with every possible issue imaginable. it's just that the term sexual harassment hadn't reached their repertiore yet. OR YOURS
@mensrightsmovement oh good grief, i didnt write the song and im using a term that is used, word nazi, should i have said catcalls? whatever you call it, they are writing about it in this song. and sexual harrassment has existed as a term since 1973. i knew about it in the 80's, i can remember it, and i didnt wait for the media to tell me things, i was and am well read and informed, just as ian from fugazi was and is.
@mensrightsmovement I wouldn't argue that the media doesn't often dictates issues to us. Not one bit. But it seems to me that you are wasting time with useless, politically correct, semantic arguments. Sexual abuse is one of the most horrific acts one person can perpetrate unto another, regardless of sex. Nobody would argue that. But while you debate about what these acts are called, or when they were given a label, you are overlooking the meat of the issue. I don't need a label or a media
@mensrightsmovement Shitstorm to tell me that when a woman had to find a witness to prove that she had been raped, it was wrong. I don't need them to tell me that when a boy is molested by his female babysitter, it is wrong. One would rarely find those issues being discussed at a dinner table, regardless of what label it is given. The fact that these injustices weren't discussed until a certain point in time does not mean that they weren't being perpetrated the entire time, right under our
@mensrightsmovement Noses. The Catholic church has rarely faced such scathing criticism for housing molesters until now, but does that mean that it wasn't happening the entire time? Absolutely not.
fugazi is too good

They aren't willing to be strong in the face of damnation, they aren't willing to be the backbone of society, they aren't willing to go get killed for their beliefs. I'm not sexist or anything, but people who ask for more work and don't want to do it are stupid.

@kbaptiste28 you obviously don't know what feminism is... it's not only about women; it's about everyone.

how many men claim to be feminist?
kbaptiste28 1 year ago
@kbaptiste28 I'm a man and I consider myself a feminist. what you think is feminist ideology is really just the stereotype, sure you'll find certain feminists who will fit into your idea of what feminism is but it's more complex than that. "strong in the face of damnation"? that ironically is fascistic language.

Go you, have a cookie.
I hope you draw strength from your reverence.
Because it sickens me.
Feminism is utterly genderless it is just a philosophical stance that centralises on gender inequality, it's a moral question not a gender question asshat.

@fagrot sooo rape and sexual harassment has nothing to do with gender? do you know who does the raping and who gets raped? shut the fuck up "fag" rot, you have no idea what you're talking about.
bunerzissou 1 year ago
@bunerzissou Of course it is, a man can be raped by a man or a women and vice versa, it's genderless.
You ignoramus.
Claiming to be a fair minded "feminist", yet attempted a homosexual dig, sure got the high ground there boss, hypo-fuckin-crite. The name is just a device, shows up people like you for what you are.
You're pathetic.
fagrot 1 year ago
@fagrot yeah rape is soo genderless because men get raped equally as much as women. you're so fucking stupid you swear it's a device, i was highlighting the fact that you use the word so freely it's in your name.
bunerzissou 1 year ago
@bunerzissou @bunerzissou @bunerzissou You've missed the point or perhaps just trying to answer your own question like a politician, why would you feel the need to highlight it, what possible service way is it relevant? It could as easily mean lung cancer, thus showing the level of your intellect AGAIN.

@fagrot take some gender theory classes before you run your mouth.
bunerzissou 1 year ago
@bunerzissou
Your point was the rape is gender specific and it isn't, neither is sexual harassment.... quoting you: "sooo rape and sexual harassment has nothing to do with gender? do you know who does the raping and who gets raped?" unless you can prove otherwise with your "gender theory class" insights?
I'm not a betting man but ill put $50 on the fact you can't, shit head.
fagrot 1 year ago
@fagrot the point is that rape IS a gender issue because MORE women get raped than men. Do you know the lyrics of this song? "Suffer your interpretation of what it is to be a MAN", this song is about gender roles and how they play out in regards to the body and sexuality. morals? go ask a trans person what they think of morality, it's your goddamn morals that target queer people in the first place.

@zarkoasenov No we just have women that stand by and let the Hitlers and Stalins of the world due what they want, we just have SS wives who paint on canvases of human skin. Women make up half of the population, any actions taken by men are equally the fault of women who do nothing to opose it.

@swimsuitissue123 right....cause feminism isn't about women being pissed off at men, and books are generally thrown into that subject as well. Learn to not speak out of your ass.
ragingharlot13 9 months ago
@ragingharlot13 "women being pissed off at men". Yeah you are right, there is a whole political movement based on that exact sentiment and nothing else. It goes no deeper than that.. Seriously are you brainless? Like I said, research the subject before making throw away comments - it also helps men. And it's not about being 'pissed off' at all men, it is just a rejection of certain sexist ideoligies which can also be held by OTHER WOMEN aswell as SOME men.

@ragingharlot13 It's kinda like saying gay people who believe in gay rights are pissed off at ALL straight people and if you are straight and believe in gay rights then you hate yourself. Pish mate, pish.

@swimsuitissue123 No but if you had half a brain, you'd know that SOME women will use it as a means of getting back at men, for the sake of spite itself, and yes, kinda hate men, and most feminist movements ARE radical, and over the top, so shut the fuck up and enjoy music, instead of fucking using it as an anthem for your senseless justification of the feminist movement, look I'm not saying go out there and beat women, i'm just saying there is little reason for feminism today

@LJfromIB You're just stupid. Look at your ignorant comment to DustyAndPistolPete too about 'trannies' and 'faggots' nice. The reason people are arguing about it on this song's page is because of the fucking lyrics.. You seem to be the one who is full of hate? You make a lot of throwaway claims but if you were actually to look at things like - rape conviction rates and difference in pay then maybe you would see things from a different perspective.
swimsuitissue123 3 months ago
@swimsuitissue123 Regardless people need to stop fighting over this dumb shit, inequality does exist, sometimes it's men who get the short end of the stick, thats all I'm saying! Im just saying women aren't the only ones who get fucked over, and it doesn't "serve them right" neccesarrily if certain men are beaten and bruised with the abuse by women, or other men, because it's not about vengeance on innocent people, it's about establishing a proper balance,
LJfromIB 3 months ago
@swimsuitissue123 Oh and thats bullshit, like 5 or 6 of the top 15 richest people are women, and most pay differences are due to the fact that women haven't been in their position as long as men and that's due to only the recent incorporation of women in a lot more areas of the work force, in fact women's percentage of pay increases now far outweigh men's so please find some facts before putting out an outdated claim. The Rate in which women have been getting raises is steadfast in the past 8yrs

@themousemaster Feminism can and is very much a part of humanism. Feminism merely attempts to achieve social equality among the sexes, allowing women to have the same rights as men. They go hand in hand really.

yes but in this song he is talking about women being sexually harassed walking down the street, which tends to not happen to males, unless its other males that do it.

@bluehairspaz did you say "sexual harassment"? This is another example where the issues are being dictated by the media. Try this. Go back to the late 1980's, which was before the term "sexual harassment" entered the airwaves. And, as expected NOBODY was talking about that subject until it became media headlines. HOWEVER, in the late 80's, the media WAS abusing men with every possible issue imaginable. it's just that the term sexual harassment hadn't reached their repertiore yet. OR YOURS

@mensrightsmovement oh good grief, i didnt write the song and im using a term that is used, word nazi, should i have said catcalls? whatever you call it, they are writing about it in this song. and sexual harrassment has existed as a term since 1973. i knew about it in the 80's, i can remember it, and i didnt wait for the media to tell me things, i was and am well read and informed, just as ian from fugazi was and is.

@mensrightsmovement I wouldn't argue that the media doesn't often dictates issues to us. Not one bit. But it seems to me that you are wasting time with useless, politically correct, semantic arguments. Sexual abuse is one of the most horrific acts one person can perpetrate unto another, regardless of sex. Nobody would argue that. But while you debate about what these acts are called, or when they were given a label, you are overlooking the meat of the issue. I don't need a label or a media

@mensrightsmovement Shitstorm to tell me that when a woman had to find a witness to prove that she had been raped, it was wrong. I don't need them to tell me that when a boy is molested by his female babysitter, it is wrong. One would rarely find those issues being discussed at a dinner table, regardless of what label it is given. The fact that these injustices weren't discussed until a certain point in time does not mean that they weren't being perpetrated the entire time, right under our

@mensrightsmovement Noses. The Catholic church has rarely faced such scathing criticism for housing molesters until now, but does that mean that it wasn't happening the entire time? Absolutely not.
