Here's a friendly reminder:
caffeinatedfeminist: -You cannot be sexist toward men. Sexism is based on a system of oppression. You CAN be discriminatory, rude, inconsiderate, and/or prejudiced against men but you CANNOT be sexist toward them. -You cannot be racist towards white people.

From Mehreen Kasana's Tumblr
(In a conference on the GWOT, 9/11 and "Islamic ideology", I was in the speaking panel)
Young British man: Are you apologetic about 9/11?
Mehreen Kasana: No. I don't apologize for 9/11. Why should I? I had nothing to do with it. I'm only sorry about the lives lost - regardless of who they were. But I am NOT a spokesperson for Al-Qaeda. No sensible Muslim is. Do I ask British people to apologize to me for colonizing my country back then, taking the rights of the masses away, ending freedom of speech, creating problematic borders that led to bloodshed, sexually assaulting the women of my land, westernizing the entire pedagogues in the subcontinent, turning my culture and my identity into a mystical subject for orientalist authors to go capitalize on? Have I asked you to say sorry to me?
Him: (remains silent)
