“Feminism was born out of a PR campaign to get women to smoke cigarettes” and other fun “facts” from Reddit

Typical feminists, according to Reddit

A redditor called fxexular has put together an amazing compilation of fun “facts” about feminism from assorted Redditors. It’s a bit like reading the descriptions of an elephant offered by six blind men who are also drunk misogynist assholes. Among my favorites:

feminism, at best, focuses on relatively trivial female issues instead of grotesque male issues and at worst is pure man hate.

feminism. Where the most privileged people in society can whine about their “oppression of opulence.”

Feminism is about strong males using law to further marginalize weak males.

The ruling class uses feminism as a tool to keep men, young men and boy’s down

It’s like pissing in a bucket of water – piss enough, and you’ll dilute the water to mostly piss. “Feminism” is a bucket of piss these days, from all the crazy and ignorant that attached to it over the years, especially the past decade when it became a fad.

feminism destroys men’s confidence and sense of satisfaction in being male.

every feminist is a abuser or a abuser apologist or a shield for other abusers.

Feminists don’t even think of men as human.

Most women and feminists view gay men as accessories.

these feminist nut cases have only one goal: total female supremacy at the expense of men. Fuck every last one of these haggard harpies. Fuck ’em all.

I used to hold doors, I dont anymore. I just let it slam in the face of whoever is behind me b/c I have been publicly embarrassed by many a feminist for being polite.

Feminists are like witches, but this isn’t the The Land of Oz, Dorothy. There are no “good” feminists.

Brainwashed weak feminist men are a favorite of feminists. They don’t treat them very well, but they use them to great effect.

i’m mad as hell at the way men are treated by the feminist gynecocracy

The people who dismiss /mr are like abusers; they’re looking for any excuse to piss all over something they know is logical and true because they can’t handle it emotionally.

Many feminists do hate men and want to emasculate them. While I’m thankful for the few who don’t I feel that their silence allows the groups like NOW to exploit men and women alike for their own aims.

I know it sounds good to believe that feminism was always about equality but go and read up on the first wave suffragettes. They were basically domestic terrorists in many cases.

The feminism of the 60’s also lead to the vitriol hatred of men.

I suspect that the butt-ugly women who started feminism in the 60’s were confronted for the first time with an efficient mating market (after the sexual revolution), and they couldn’t stand “losing” to the pretty girls

[Feminists’] entire shtick is to repeat misinformation and when that fails bust out the unsubstantiated personal attacks

Yeah, no irony there!

I think this one is my favorite, though:

I will never socialize with feminists after I learned the darkness of their philosophy.

Most of these quotes are from the Men’s Rights subreddit. Every quote in fxexular’s list that I went to look at in context had gotten more upvotes than downvotes. So they must be true!

EDITED TO ADD: Oops! Forgot the link. I added it above. And here is is again, just in case.

Thanks amandajane5! It disappeared from the “recent posts” so quickly, and I was just about to do a search.

Pecunium:

The notion of the feminization of the armed forces always impressed me as riidiculous; I didn’t “fob it off on you” until you kept hammering at me how wonderful the women “soldiers”, in your experience, were! You are correct–I never served in the Army–and, except for the possibility that you were the LUCKIEST man in the Army, if not the luckiest man of all time, for surviving in combat when your life was dependent upon these “soldierettes”, The notion that women somehow “belong in” the Army had to be YOURS, not mine.

Maybe women ARE equal to men in every capacity that defines a soldier (or sailor, airman, or marine). If that is the case–which impresses me as absurd–then go whole hog, feminize the armed forces altogether, and have done with it! It was my idea, only in the sense that I got it from you after hanmering me with “equality” of females in the army over several posts of yours. I don’t think that I can be blamed for carrying this to reductio ad absurdum after being exposed to it unrelentingly, not only here, but many other places as well!

My impression, on the basis of every army and navy in history, is that it would be an absurd idea! But, you are correct, Pecunium, the experiences of Alexander of Macedon, Julius Caesar, Hadrian, Nebuchadnezzar, Alaric, Attila, Tamerlane, Genghiz Khan, Magellan, Pizarro, Cortez, Napoleon Bonaparte…all the way down to the XX century, like Rommel, Patton, Pershing, MacArthur, et al. who ALL led 100% MALE armies into battle, and even when they lost, nobody ever suggested that their engagements would have been victorious if only they had more women on the front lines.

But I am only an ignorant civilian, so what do I know?

YOU are the gender egalitarian here! Take it from there…

PEACE AND FREEDOM!!

Right, right….. what WAS I thinking??
Oh wait, I know! I wasn’t thinking because I don’t have enough of a mind to perform that obviously superhuman function.

DKM – That’s a wonderful case of new-information-immunity you’re building up there.

You hear directly from a man who tells you about serving with and relying upon female soldiers, and… it just doesn’t sink in. You don’t even really react to this information as information. You act like it’s a hypothetical, or you only half-heard it, or it couldn’t really have happened.

Maybe women ARE equal to men in every capacity that defines a soldier (or sailor, airman, or marine). If that is the case–which impresses me as absurd–then go whole hog, feminize the armed forces altogether, and have done with it!
Um… okay! We’d like to! Nice to see we agree!

Although by “feminize,” we don’t mean “100% women,” because that just makes no Earthly sense. It’s more like “50% women,” or maybe not even that; maybe “as many women as enlist, and that might not be an equal number, but the ones who are in the service have the same opportunities to serve.”

HAW HAW SOLDIERETTES. Class act, DKM.

Pam – I love the word “humanettes.”

I mean, no, not really, but it… impresses me with its directness.

Dear cleverbot.com DKM

What is equality?
“You are creepy”

Do you have all the answers?
“No one does”

Why do feminists hate men?
“I can type eighty words per minute, thank you very much.”

Obviously DKM is an early version of Cleverbot for racists.

Holly: It’s not as if Meller thinks I’m a “Real Man”™. He, after all, has a No True Scotsman view of the world.

I am some sort of delude bastard, who must have been lucky, or something (maybe even making it all up) to think women in a combat zone are worth their salt.

So he posits an an absurdem and says it’s just taking my comments to their, “logical, and reasonable” end. Never mind what I actually said. We know it’s not meant to be serious, but rather to make me look bad. I suppose that sort of thing gives him the woody he needs to keep wanking in public. It’s not as if that example is going to persuade anyone; since none but he thinks it’s what anyone here has said.

So, then,

Bee, I ASSURE you that I have NO “crush on you’!!

I have no suicidal inclinations, no wishes for castration, and no interest in a woman(?) whose allure–for a human male–is somewhere between that of a scorpion and a hornet! I don’t like to say bad things about people, and I try to respect women, but you make it impossible! Your posts show you to be absolutely rotten, and a hideous caricature of a woman, and I would count any contact with you, even in a dream, as a NIGHTMARE!!

if you want male interaction. maybe one of the feminist renegade male housepets on manboobz.com may be of interest to you. They LIKE so-called “strong women”. Or, you could remain lonely for the rest of your life, or even become a lesbian, for all I could care less.

Meller: I don’t like to say bad things about people,

Yes, you do.

I try to respect women,

No, you don’t.

for all I could care less.

And you are three for three in lies here. Because you couldn’t care more. Your raison d’&ecircon;tre on the internet is campaigning to make all of the things you said you don’t care about impossible.

Wow, that’s a difficult question, are we women? Those of us who identify as women? Or are we women(?) as determined by you, specifically. You claim to not like to say bad things about people, however you spend a lot of time saying bad things about women (as if we’re some sort of monolithic group) but since, based on your writings, I conclude that you only see men as people, thus you are following your own convoluted writings, but still not making a compelling argument for…anything. Other than that all people should see the world as you do. We all know you want some sort of simpering pet/slave companion, and hey, maybe you can find one, but you’re looking in the wrong place here!

P.S. Clearly lonely men who spend a lot of time wishing for a pet/slave need to remember that thing about glass houses/stones.

The insult “woman (?)” confuses me.

If bad women were secretly men, wouldn’t that make us… superior, on account of how we were men?

Or does being bad women just mean we’re not entitled to any gender at all any more?

Oh man, if only this would fit on my business cards. Perhaps my CV.

Such rigorous protest, David K. Meller! You know what they say about that, don’t you?

Holly Pervocrazy:

Woman(?) is intended to distinguish between fake women, such as those we might see here, and REAL women–such as what we may see elsewhere. I tried to distinguish between women and feminists by providing lists of qualities characterising women, on one hand, and feminists, on the other, but too many feminists here forgot that the lists about women was NOT for you! It was for information only, and the qualities on my list for women e.g. “alluring, sensitive, soft, playful, cute, tranquil,etc” were not there for you feminists to swarm all over it like hungry cockroaches grabbing each point as you pleased! The points were there to distinguish between real women and yourselves. and that is why I now refer to most of you as women(?). You are nothing but feminists–man-hating, androgynous, unisex, bitter, and angry FEMINISTS–and the only qualities apropo to youall are on the feminist list!

That is why I now refer to the likes of women(?) here that way.

Holly Pervocracy

But if I’m a fake woman, what am I?

Genderless?

A man? (SWEET, as this apparently makes me awesome at everything and deserving of a pet woman)

Cardboard?

CGI?

At least call women who aren’t cuddlebunny ivory doll housemaker submissives “bad women” or something. Calling them not women is just confusing.

The hell you say. Laughing at women getting cancer, calling us shrews, vipers, and bats… you’re a total class act who would never say anything bad about anyone.

GET BENT!!!

Also: I actually am kind of androgynous and, er, “unisex.”

So?

Is it my goddamn job to be a woman (to your specifications)?

If I’m not a woman, how can you possibly be angry at me for not being a proper woman?

DKM cannot conceive of a woman who is not an obedient, worshipful, sex doll of a slave. How dare actual real life women identified people in reality not meet that standard but rather act like a diverse group of humans? You are melting his brain!!!

Good question, Holly.

…but too many feminists here forgot that the lists about women was NOT for you!

Oh, Meller, you hapless idiot. Once you publish something publically on the internet we’re allowed to interpret it in anyway we please. As adorable as I find your misplaced, narcissistic frustration, surely you understand this. If you don’t want feminists swarming all over your drivel and interpreting it in a manner you don’t approve of, then go “ribbit” all over someone else’s threads.

And if feminist women find that they fulfill some of the characteristics you’ve decided are the exclusive providence of what you consider “real” women then it just further reinforces my theory: you are completely unappealing in every way. To women and women(?), alike.

Cheers!!!
