I found this illustrating a typically incoherent rant about “The Aphrodisiac of the False Rape Claim” on What Men Are Saying About Women, the blog of the infamous MRA double period. Whoever made it needs to stop making Demotivational posters because he doesn’t understand how these posters are supposed to work. Or how to communicate a coherent message to other human beings using language.

Sarcasm can be such a crappy way of conveying concepts.
Is this person trying to say “it’s always her fault” (obviously not true) or “it’s sometimes her fault” (no one’s actually debating that)?
I get the feeling they’re trying to imply “always” while leaving open plausible deniability that they only meant “sometimes.” And because they’re talking in Sarcastese, they don’t have to clarify! They can just let off a little “grr, women” and walk off without having to think it through. They probably don’t fully know themselves which one they meant.
Thanks to that demotivational picture, I’m afraid to click the link. That’s enough butchering of basic human language for me.
wtf
I don’t even
But if we just went and did a quick regender on that? it would be an accurate description of the MRAs/MGTOW
In fact, no, it’s never her fault she’s raped.
I’ve never had a thuglover. Seriously, is this a thing?
I don’t think it’s about rape. Or is it? I have no idea what it’s about, actually.

It’s code for (*stagewhisper*) BLACK PEOPLE
I just went to the OP, and uh. That whole first “paragraph” is just one sentence. One, big, vague run on. The whole post is three paragraphs, and maybe 4 or 5 sentences total. Like. What was he even talking about?
When I think of thugs, I think of British Football hooligans. Rioting and burning cars because your team lost/won/whatever really turns chicks on, apparently.
Whatever the quality of the post, it conveys the message that women are not held accountable for their actions to the extent than guys are. That’s the message, whether you accept it or not, that’s another quesiton.
@Spear, no that’s Canadians when the Canucks loose in the 7th
Football hooligans are funnier than deranged Hockey fans. Maybe because I’ve never met a Football hooligan. Also, the word “hooligan” is inherently funny.
Maggie, so you’re pretty much inclined to defend any bullshit if it aligns vaguely with your beliefs?
(Note: I am not blaming the voices, your employer, your “thuglover,” etc for your dumb comment here; I am blaming you.)
Whatever the quality of the post, it conveys the message that cesium has 39 observed isotopes. That’s the message, whether you accept that or not, that’s another question.
(Also: I had a lover who was kind of thuggish. But he was Irish and from a wealthy suburban family. [And he treated me fine; he was “thuggish” in his mannerisms and dress, not in being actually violent.] Anyone want to take bets on whether he’d count as a “thuglover”?)
“Hooligan” reminds me of when I was 14 and my mom wouldn’t let me and my brother walk to the ice cream parlor on a Thursday evening (6pm or so) because, “the yahoos are out.” Pronounced “yay-hooze.”
Because … women! (Sorry. Trying to be on-topic.)
Whatever the quality of the post, it conveys the message that women are not held accountable for their actions to the extent than guys are.
Do you have any proof of this at all? That’s the thing about your posts: you come in here, snipe out some arch thing about how you’re Really Concerned about the Poor Young Men who aren’t taught to socialize, who are feared and loathed and held accountable for their actions, the dears…and then when we ask you to back that shit up with evidence or even reasoned speculation, you’re out of there. I have yet to see you addressing the Asperger’s topic that you brought up down in the sociopathy thread. This is getting really old.
Women are so held accountable for their actions: ‘Why didn’t you fight back?’ (or even better, ‘Why did you fight back? It only provoked him!’) ‘Why were you drinking’ ‘Why were you out walking at night?’ ‘Why did you dance with/accept a drink from/go out with him?’ ‘Why did you let him drug your drink?’ ‘Why were you wearing a short skirt and tank top?’ ‘Why were you outside, being all female?’ Women are constantly held accountable for the fact that some men can’t control their erections.
The article seems pretty clear, it basically states women lie about being raped. Women have loads of reasons to lie about it, from jealousy, revenge and excuses for cheating /pregnancy to attention getting and on and on.
Years ago in the old history books Philidelphia was known as the gayest city in the world while George Washington and the gang were in suffering in Valley Forge. (Gay at the time meant festive). Being born in Philly I was of couse interested in the story as anyone would be about their home town. The reason it was so festive is because the British would hold parties every night and many of the local women would attend. No doubt there was plenty of fraternization going on making for a festive occasion. Obviously quite a few women attending the parties got pregnant and of course cried rape upon return of George and his army. According to the old history books, quite often those women weren’t believed in the slightest as word got around about which women curried favor with the enemy.
False cries of rape are as old as the hills. During the Valley Forge days the women of Philidelphia had chioces to make. They could stay in Philly and keep the home fires burning as it were. They could brave the fridged cold and bring goods/supplies to the troops, or they could accept gifts from the enemy, fraternize and party every night. For the most part the women falsely claiming rape back then weren’t believed, and with good reason they weren’t believed. People were pretty savvy back then. Yet these facts were removed from the history books for portraying women in a bad light, which show you who is calling the shots; who has the power so to speak to rewrite history. The not really funny part is, if these facts were still taught I have no doubt false claims would be a scarce as feminists claim.
Now if we fast forward to the present, the same women who falsely accused a man might actually end up as a policymaker blocking anonymity, or a judge trying rape cases, or prosecuting lawyer, or any number of professions that unfairly use the violence of the State against men. Before the great indoctrination, a woman lying about rape was ostracized from the community, today, she might remain anonymous, or she could even benfit after having a man unjustly incarcerated or even killed.
First, thuglover? I want a glove to cover my thu and all four fings.
Second, is it my imagination or do these guys say that women are children/animals/less-evolved and then claim and complain that men are held to a higher standard? Do they not understand self-contradiction?
“People were pretty savvy then.”
Only you would think a 200-plus-year-old mindset would be savvy and believe that grade-A word salad in the OP made any sense, NWO.

One trick is to tell ’em stories that don’t go anywhere, like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on ’em. “Give me five bees for a quarter,” you’d say. Now, where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn’t have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones..
I leave these: a box of mint-condition 1918 liberty-head silver dollars. You see, back in those days, rich men would ride around in Zeppelins, dropping coins on people, and one day I seen J. D. Rockefeller flying by. So I run out of the house with a big washtub and in 1957 I saw him turn turn the Secretary of Agriculture into the Secretary of the Interior. It was hell on their wives, but it sure brought down corn prices. Built a house out of corn. It was the worst home I ever owed? when it got really hot it smelled like Frito’s.
Anyway, about my washtub…I just used it that morning to wash my turkey, which in those days was known as a “walking bird”. We’d always have walking bird on Thanksgiving with all the trimmings: cranberries, Injun eyes, yams stuffed with gunpowder. Then we’d all watch football, which in those days was called “baseball.”
“Do they not understand self-contradiction?”
Ned, they’re not actually thinking or reasoning out their arguments, is the problem. Their anger and hate is just erupting out of them in every direction in the form of logorrhea. Their paranoia and narcissism require that they channel most of the most violent eruptions at women, but gays, blacks, and anybody who isn’t them will end up catching whatever’s left over.
It’s hard to penetrate walls of delusion so thick. Sadly, I find watching these guys have public breakdowns (the mask- it’s slipping!) oddly entertaining. I don’t what that says about me… but there’s not much else I can really do, is there? Besides draw attention to them as a sort of boil on society’s ass? Warn people to steer clear of them? Antagonize them because it’s funny how easily roused they are? I’m stumped.
