Do something about antisemitic hate mail, general antisemitism, and staff response on Tumblr!

For too long, Jews on Tumblr have had to deal with antisemitic hate mail, general antisemitism, and a mediocre staff response to our complaints. We have many anecdotes of antisemitism that we experience on tumblr, but we do not have data. Data can be more powerful than anecdotes when trying to convince companies such as Yahoo and Tumblr to change their ways. This is why I have created a survey about antisemitism on Tumblr (most specifically hate mail). Whether you are converting to Judaism, openly Jewish on Tumblr, or a not openly Jewish Jew your responses to this survey are powerful. 

Also, it would be awesome if you would reblog this post. We need as much data as possible for effective advocacy. 

Goyim please reblog! You probably have Jewish followers so that would be really helpful.

If you are Jewish (ethnically, religiously or both) or converting to Judaism and you haven’t taken this yet it would be awesome if you take it! If you are Jewish, converting, or you support Jewish people please reblog this! So far 145 people who are either Jewish or converting to Judaism have taken the survey. That’s awesome, and i’m glad so many people have taken it so far! However, we need much more data for effective advocacy. So take, reblog, spread the word!

American Pie and But I'm A Cheerleader were both released in 1999.

American Pie features:

  1. A pact between four straight high school boys to have sex by any means necessary.
  2. A male character masturbating into a pie.
  3. A humorous depiction of filming a high school aged girl in a sexual situation without her knowledge or consent, and broadcasting that to the entirety of her peer group and presumably the world. This tragically results in her humiliation and deportation, which means that the male character who filmed her will not be able to have sex with her in time to fulfill the pact (which is why it is tragic). (In a subsequent installment of the American Pie series, the girl returns and is not only not angry, but still amenable to a sexual relationship with said boy.)

But I’m A Cheerleader features:

  1. A satirical depiction of a traumatic and harmful practice known as ‘reparative therapy,’ colloquially ‘degayification,’ with special attention paid to the fact that it doesn’t really work.
  2. One sex scene between female characters, not fully nude, shot mostly using close ups on the actress’ faces. Everyone is consenting, and no one has lied in order to receive consent.
  3. One female character suggested to be masturbating, not shown.

The MPAA gave American Pie an R rating, without hassle.

But I’m A Cheerleader initially received an NC-17 rating. This rating was only lowered to R (thus opening the film up to distribution) when the director agreed to cut a scene featuring the lead female character masturbating. Through her clothes. While thinking about a person, and not a pie.

Female sexual pleasure is considered not OK for teens to watch. Male sexual pleasure is

Male sexual violence is more appropriate than women’s sexual pleasure.

^^^^^^^

Watch the documentary “This Film is Not Yet Rated” for more info on this double standard! The director of “Boys Don’t Cry” talks about how she couldn’t include a female orgasm without getting an NC-17/X rating, and yet the film was able to depict rape, violence, graphic murder and homophobia/transphobia and still keep an “R” rating.

“This Film is Not Yet Rated” is one of the best docs I have ever fucking seen.
