Dear FourChan

Dear FourChan,

My name is Meghan Mohan and I'm a reporter for the BBC. I am investigating the rampaging surge of misogyny in Great Britain and wherever the internet has had a part in it.

In my search for answers, I have been led to believe that this site is a large source of sexism on the internet. My goal is to understand the mindset of what's been spread around here and get some clarity on the toxic reasoning that seems so commonplace on the internet.

Sexism can be hard to point out when it’s so engrained in our everyday lives, which is why I have prepared some questions to present for you, so that you can answer to find if toxic masculinity is truly as prevalent on the internet as it is in our day to day lives.

We all have a voice on the internet as well as the glorious freedom to say whatever we want, but is what you are saying harmful? Here are the five questions I present to you;

1. What do you do in your spare time outside of this website (Sports, Types of films, Video games, etc)

2. What topics do you often talk about on this website? Are women and politics involved?

3. How do you feel about the casual nudity on this site, as well as the internet? Do you feel it has desensitised you in any way? Should porn be more restricted?

4. Do you say curse words on the internet? If so, do you swear in real life also? How are you seen in social situations for doing so? Are you seen differently as opposed to doing it on the internet?

5. Did you grow up raised on gender stereotypes? Examples would be men are strong, women are emotional, only firefighters can be boys and only girls can be princesses, etc.

Thank you for taking the time to answer these questions,


Meghan

Men, I have a question for you, female to male.

What makes you think it is okay for any of you to wantonly harrass and rape us?

Every day I see it, I live it. Men everywhere approaching, talking to, standing close by and looking at women without our goddamn permission.

Why? Why do you do this? Is it that much fun for you to hurt us? Do you think you own us?

Women never hurt anyone, we try our goddamned best every single day to please absolutely everyone, all we ask in return is some basic fucking empathy.

Have the empathy, the kindness or even the sense of duty to do these small things for us, as we constantly live to consider your feelings:

- Keep your eyes pointed downwards, we did not ask you to look at us or in our direction.

- Keep your distance from us, we cannot tell which one of you is going to be another rapist, if you care at all about our mental well-being you will do what you can to stay far away.

- Do not, in any circumstance, talk to us without being spoken to first. If we do allow you to talk, please keep it to answers only. We spend our entire lives being told what to do by men, even though we never do the reverse.

- If a woman is standing anywhere near where you need to be, please just give up and find something else. Especially in supermarkets there's 'aisle-harrassment' where men think it is okay to get close to you only because they 'need' something from the aisle we're in.

These are just the basics, but I see men fucking this up all the time. Please mind these simple rules and help make the world a little more equal.

pls be real

>not owning a rolex

Explain yourself, poorfags ;)

Pic related is mine, you faggots jelly? hehe ;)

it's a new Rolex Submariner ;)

You see i don't wear shitty watch like workingclass dumb idiots wear.. shit watches like Casio and fucking Timex. ;)) I only wear expensive watches ;) hehe richfag here ;)

I almost got laid 2 times since wearing this expensive watch ;))

When civilization collapses and the UK finally succumbs to ultimate tyranny and Muslim overpopulation suffocating it, those still left with all their faculties will scratch their heads and ask, "how? How did it all come to this? We, the English, the proud descendants of the greatest empire on Earth, how did we become slaves?"
The answer is inevitably the same, for all. This man. Thomas Hamilton.

You, the British, let yourselves be duped by those in power, who manipulated you like helpless puppets, convincing you that it would be "best to give up your arms" in the wake of the Dunblane Massacre. You, the British, watched like docile cows as they removed your right to defend yourselves from them. Yet, you complain "why, why, why?". Your memory is short. Your chances of reversing your inevitable descent into slavery, even-shorter.

I don't despise you. I don't even laugh at you. I simply pity you. You brought this upon yourselves. FUCK the English. Oh and tits or get the fuck out.

She works for Big Black Cocks!

>I'm a reporter for the BBC
I didn't know Big Black Cocks had reporters.

Sup Sup Forumstards.

My IQ is 169. For those of you unfamiliar with IQ, this means I have "genius-level" intelligence.

I also have synaesthesia, and absolute pitch. Things as diverse as math, music, and art come naturally to me and I get straight A's without studying much at all. I also am able to understand music at a deeper level than most people.

While most people my age spend their free time listening to mainstream music, I spend my free time listening to works such as Jerry Garcia Band's Cats Under the Stars, Frank Turner's Sleep Is for the Week and Love Ire & Song.

All this and I'm an 18 year old still in high school.

Ask me anything.

No one called Meghan Mohan who works as a BBC reporter.

You also use Americanisms and Sup Forums slang in your post.

2/10 - try harder next time but well done for trying.

I'm guessing someone who's only been here a year or so, and doesn't yet realise that women use this site almost as much as guys, and sexism isn't really an issue here.

you are fat

Oh god please don’t ask these garbage people

Listen bitch, no asked for you to be here cunt
Tits of gtfo

lol you kinding. also who's this high and mighty bitch? not a good place for your soapbox. What kind of website do you think this is? 90% of the people on here are dudes jackin it. not a good place for unbiased data or to influence anyone in general

Please show your boobies or vacate the thread.

you got baited

Yeah

Bait

I'm sorry but we were the first here. How about find another site to interview?

You're a fucking plebeian, Meghan.

HITLER DID NOTHING WRONG WOMEN ARE SUB FAGGOTS WHITE POWER EAT MY ASS

...

i can tell by the pixels

"four chan"

Here's a newstory for you: Spiteful Zionist Jews secretly burdening Britain with terror attacks and economic hardships as well as social cancers as punishment for even dreaming of de-annexing themselves from the Jewropean Union via a Brexit

Go listen to Death Grips and you will understand what drives this shit.

You are fake news my dear

shut the fuck up, neither of you are even relevant in 2017

Welcome to Sup Forums

I know none of this is real but she's hot as hell and I would fuck the shit out of her

Sam Hyde has such a presence. Not even homo. If he fixed up his shit, got a proper personal trainer and worked out for a year, he could be a genuine character-actor in films.

Quick, someone call fox news in here, this shit is getting lit

Just because you have supposedly have a high iq doesn't mean you're not an absolute faggot

THAT'S A GUY HA YOU FAGGOT
seriously how do people fall this easily for traps? this image has been around forever.

here's a question for you miss "Meghan"

does it bother you that your news network's logo is universally understood as "Big Black Cock"?

nypa

This

I bet Meghan gets BBC everyday

Hurry on back to Gorgon, faggot.

...

As has the pasta

1 - nothing
2 - anything. yes
3 - nudity is fine, i am desensitised to graphic imagery, internet shouldn't be censored in any way
4 - i swear irl and on the internet, i am seen as rude in both cases.
5 - i grew up with a single mother, 3 sisters and exposure to trauma so my gender development was stagnated and I became androgynous.

GET OFF OUR FUCKING SITE NORMIE

...

Bitch, you don't come in here making demands. Tits or gtfo. Did you read the fucking rules? Grub.

>only firefighters can be boys

I came here just to mention that but you beat me to it.

WHITE POWER GAS THE KIKES RACE WAR NOW

> only firefighters can be boys

I just walked in on my girlfriend fucking a close friend of mine on my bed. She just smirked at me and then continued to ride him.

I'm in my living room now, listening to them fuck. She's never been this loud before. My hands are shaking and I don't know what to do.

throw some punches you fucking pussy
give them hell

Low qual bait nigger

Reeeeeee
Get off my board normie

Dear Meghan,

1. Remaining spare time is spent on video games and going to the gym
2. Usually video games, cartoons, memes and life stories. Women and politics are only involved when they are directly related. Women only come up in life stories involving women. Politics rarely comes up on Sup Forums and if they do it's usually just a meme.
3. Don't have a problem with nudity online. Don't feel desensitized to it. Don't think porn should be restricted, I think it natural. Porn is not an issue unless it shows an illegal act taking place.
4. I don't curse on the internet. Try not to curse in public often, more relaxed with use when with friends or family. I am seen as a normal social person in real life.
5. I was not raised on gender stereotypes. The core values I was raised on was to do your duty to support the family (example, my dad had a higher paying job than my mom so he worked while my mom stayed home to raise me. Once I became more independent she started working again). In terms of jobs I believe that people should do jobs that they are fit to do and should be higher solely based on their credentials, so yes a minority can and should become a doctor if they posses the skills to become one, and no a skinny 5'2 woman should not become a firefighter not because she is a woman, but because she lacks the physical strength and stature to carry someone out of a burning building in a reasonable amount of time.

Also I believe that the "surge in misogyny" has more to do with the rise of identity politics and forcing things to be "equal and diverse" when they don't need to be. As well as the rise in a certain group of people *cough cough* "cis white males" being blamed for all of the worlds problems, and less to do with anonymous internet message boards.

Hope this helps.

I see no sexism on the internet.. but I'd like a blt please miss

The left refuses to Report on real issues instead browse Sup Forums
Sean Hannity at 7pm

Fuck off just make up a story like all journos do

1: Blacksmithing and restoring old motorcycles.

2: We talk about things that interests us as each of the boards has a specific audience and can be very helpful. Saying that this board (b) is for relaxing and talking shit or having a laugh so naturally yes politics and women come into focus 90% of the time as they do in bars or pubs.

3: It has not desensitized me one bit I love the fact that people can express themselves through there bodies and if you look most of what is posted here is either posted by someone looking for some attention or to help relieve others stress. So no I do not think we have the right to tell people what to do with their bodies and therefore can't Controll the porn industry which lets be real is the only way you would ever be able to Controll sexy ads to any measurable degree of importance.

4: I swear on the internet, I swear in real life, swearing is just a way to convey emotionally how you feel. I have never felt out of place by swearing in public it shouldn't be seen as something bad just another way to say how you feel and to get some self gratification when you say it.

5: No I grew up thinking everyone is equal.

1. Study philosophy, watch Netflix, play PlayStation

2. This is Sup Forums, the Random board, if you want politics, go to Sup Forums, fucktard

3. It is completly fine, no to both others, and fuck you and your thought police, bitch, kill2self (it's b8 but fuck it, I'm going to treat it like a real survey)

4. Yes, yes, people don't really care, rational people, that is, no

5. Very little, just the idea that men and women are different, on large scales, and tend to have different preferences and attributes, on the whole, but not as a hard and fast rule

Millenial Retard, back the fuck off

Go fuck yourself faggot

if this was real you'd supply an @bbc.com email

You’re probably goofing but I’ll answer your questions anyway.

1. I like playing videogames a lot

2. I don’t reply to many posts. Not sure if there is a unifying thing to the posts I do reply to. Usually just something videogame related or something.

3. There is a lot of casual nudity on this website and it has probably desensitized me. I don’t think porn should be restricted though on freedom is speech grounds. On the nudity here, the amount of revenge porn honestly fucks me up a lot. I think there should be restrictions on that, and I think there will be at some point.

4. I curse on the internet and in appropriate settings in real life. I don’t think that I curse too much or anything.

5. I was raised on gender stereotypes. I think most people are.

Hi Meghan

>1.

Video games, studying.

>2.

I don't often involve myself in conversation here, what's talked about is irrelevant; the medium is the message.

>3.

It's okay, nothing to be ashamed of. I feel that I now see it for what it is, not what I am told i should feel about it. Children shouldn't see it, it should be no ones ultimate impression of nudity considering its vulgarity. But of course that's up to parenting and the media rather than the porn itself.

>4

Yes and yes. It is not seen as anything too far from the norm. I am in the north of the UK if that matters. I wouldn't say so, though I suppose it depends on the people you associate with and the people viewing it on the internet.

>5.

I grew up exposed to a lot of people that would choose to reinforce these stereotypes or claimed that they must, presumably due to their own childhood and our friend the media.I was also exposed to people who went against the grain though, so that allowed me to see it for what it is.

The name Mohan sounds hot, post nudes.

tits or get the fuck out.

Holy shit, what happened to your hand?

The leftist Commies spread fake news from Sup Forums.

sexism doesn't exist fag

ask to join

Almost took the b8, gr8 job m8.
sage this shit just cause

>Only women can be princesses

Really? Are you libtards actually trying to dispute this now? I don't know what is satire and what isn't any more!

Assuming this is real:
1. Football, Debate, Rowing, Working out.
2. Its mostly banter.
3. I don't really think about it. Its not really a site I'd browse at work or school. Only late at night when Im alone and bored.
4. I don't usually type out swear words unless for specific emphasis. Whether I swear in real life or not depends on the situation. Dinner with family? No. Nandos with the lads, yes.
5. We didn't really talk about gender roles. The media has a much bigger influence.
