antifeminism false accusations misogyny MRA reddit

“Feminists don’t even think of men as human,” and other insights from Reddit’s Men’s Rights subreddit.

This, oddly, was one of the first results in a Google image search for "hatred of women." So I'm going with it.

Hey, everybody, here’s another massive list of ridiculous comments from the  Reddit’s Men’s Rights subreddit on the subjects of women, feminists and feminism. Some, er, highlights:

Never trust a woman. When you are out and they are around, go the other way. Your life may actually depend on you crossing the street or not taking that elevator or not working late in a office with another lonely woman.

Women are keen to assert all of the benefits that modern society affords them, but at the same time quick to twist their hair into pigtails and play the “I’m just a girl” defense when the traditional benefits of being a woman would suit them better.

Misandrist feminists want gender based apartheid, and the male population culled to lest than 10%

 

 

Feminism does NOT create strong women – it creates dependency and a stunted intellect.

In the feminist community, bigotry is met with a groundswell of support, and is very rarely called out.

That last one is just a teensy bit ironic, given that most of the comments above were heavily upvoted – in other words, “met with a groundswell of support.” Further evidence of this irony: oh, just the hundreds of misogynistic statements from MRAs I’ve linked to on this blog.

For links to the original comments in context, see the full list on Reddit. Props to the Redditor known as Squibbling for having the patience to assemble all of this.

I always stay around a while to get abused. And while I do think this website is offensive, mostly because David touts himself as mocking misogyny, but truth be told, what he really wants to do is dismantle the MRM.

Offensive? Fuckit, if that’s his aim I will buy him a beer the next time he visits the city where I live.

I love men. I love their company. And even with all their imperfections, I am glad to have known (biblically and otherwise) so many many of them.

Almost all of my friends are guys, my advisor’s a guy, the greats in my field are mostly guys, and I’ve been in a relationship with a guy for the past six years. Guys, as people, are awesome, and I have never said otherwise. That doesn’t mean patriarchy, as a system, doesn’t suuuuuuck donkey dong. I like being able to get a PhD without a maximum quota for women in my department. I love being able to visit a university library without a male chaperon (which how Wedgewood had to research while she was writing The Thirty Years’ War). I can only do what I do thanks to feminism.

I find what you say offensive because what you’re really trying to say is that you’ll refresh the comments waiting for our abuse.

Sorry, magdelyn, I forgot you. You’re the “I’m not like the other girls – I like men! I’ve had sex with lots of them, unlike all you prudes/lesbians/insert anti-feminist stereotype here!” one. Or at least that’s my impression so far.

NWO definitely wins the tinfoil hat award, if only because I’ve never seen anyone try to link feminism to the Rothschilds before. You can’t say he’s not creative.

Professorship, somehow, does not keep you from being a douchebag who is disconnected from this plane of reality.

Hilariously, it probably just encourages them…One prof. at the other campus of the school I went to for undergrad (it was one school with 2 campuses) was convinced he was a vampire. He never attacked anyone though, just…lurked.

Fucking HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Seriously? Wow. And I thought some of my professors were out there.

Why on earth would they think women would want men culled to 10% of the population? That’s… that’s beyond idiotic. Even if you ignore the genocide it would call for, what happens afterward? More than 90% of the female population would never get a mate! And I doubt hooking up would be much of an option either, as the instant the male population drops so much as to become incredibly valuable, the world’s wealthiest and most powerful women would try to have them kidnapped and “housed” somewhere everyday schlubettes would never be admitted to.
Any surviving male human would need to be kept under watch to prevent them from being kidnapped and kept as some crime lady’s personal slave, or even just forced into prostitution. Weekly donations to the local sperm bank would become mandatory, reproduction would require oversight to ensure maximum genetic variation is retained, and many women would be flat-out refused; all men would be cataloged and micro-chipped, and every country’s government would spend huge amounts of money and woman-hours keeping tabs on all of their male citizens 24-7.
Human society would implode. Suddenly the many industries that focus on selling women their products on the claim that it will make them irresistible to the opposite sex will be shit outta luck. With men in such short supply, breeding programs owuld likely be launched in an attempt to try to replenish the world’s stocks; the world would farm baby boys, who would by necessity be raised in a creche system. Also the concept of the nuclear family, with Mommy and Daddy and their little children, would become like a mythical construct to many.
Straight women would have little or no chance of ever getting to have a good fuck with an XY man, much less pursuing a normal relationship with a guy they like — and the men themselves would fare even worse, being kept under constant surveillance and being almost property of the state, plus constantly being at risk for abduction, violence, enslavement, and rape. Plus, with the world population of men being so cataclysmically reduced, the genetic diversity of the human species would suffer greatly, rendering us weaker in the face of disease, epidemic, and environmental stress. The human species itself would be in danger.

I don’t see whose “fantasy revenge scenario” this is supposed to be, since it renders both men and women far worse off than they are now. If you’re going to make wild claims about your rival’s plans for the future, you should at least try to come up with some that sound like it would benefit them enough to be plausible. This sounds more like the plot to some post-apocalyptic movie from the 70s that never got made.

Mine too. She also wants you to know that she has a functioning uterus, just in case you were wondering, just to let you know, because she totally does.

Huh. How peculiar. Personally I’ll be delighted when my uterus finally stops functioning. No more need for contraception, ever? Sounds like a good deal to me.

Suddenly feminism is a monolithic block? Amazing how that works. All women are individuals when it’s convenient and a monolithic hive mind when it;s convebient as well.

There are many ongoing internal debates in feminism, but “should we murder 2,710,094,280 men?” is not one of them. Please, feel free to link me to a feminist debate on the pros and cons of murdering 2,710,094,280 men if you happen to come across one. But I’m pretty sure we’re a monolith on this particular issue.

“Which raises the question–if false rape accusations are easy and fun to make, if women make them very often for petty reasons, and if false rape accusations are rarely detected–why haven’t any prominent MRAs who use their real names been investigated for rape?”

Just because you say false accuations are rare doesn’t mean they’re rare. Police stations nationwide have called it an epidemic, (meaning not rare). This would be another example of whatever falls from a womans mouth doesn’t automatically hold value or contain any truth. Your views on rape accusations are well known from your blog, precious. 100% support.

Um… my answer is the question I asked and you didn’t respond to except in MRA KEYWORD USED ACTIVATE STANDARD KEYWORD RESPONSE fashion. If rape accusations are so easy to fling around, why aren’t you in jail?

(Okay, maybe you live in a hole and only come out to self-pityingly repair milk machines, but why aren’t MRAs who use their real names in public in jail?)

He states exactly what I’ve told you before, that Title IX is now it’s own police force and any college that doesn’t comply is denied funds. All of you called me a liar, or at least in error for that statement. How many times do I have to prove everyone of you wrong?

I’d love to see a picture of someone in Title IX Police Force uniform. I imagine it as consisting of…

a see-through shirt, no panties, and a miniskirt.

Tell you what, MRA folks. You go right ahead and cower in your tree forts or whatever you have, quaking with fear at the nightmarish prospect of talking to a woman, and I’ll just keep right on enjoying the rich, diverse and fulfilling world of human interaction. Sound good?

Gotta love how feminists always talk about Schrodinger’s Rapist and support programs like She Fears You, which is essentially an anti-male shaming session, yet snort derisively when a man talks about avoiding women for fear of being falsely accused of something. In North America and the Western world at least, I don’t think such fears are unfounded at all.

Schrodinger’s Rapist is a blog post about why many women are uncomfortable being approached in public. It does not advocate avoiding men for fear of rape. Nor are feminist blogs filled with women advising other women to avoid all men for fear of rape.

“She Fears You” is a presentation about stopping rape culture on college campuses. From the about page: “The nationally recognized presentation, She Fears You, identifies for men what they have to gain from ending campus rape – that they are no longer perceived as potential rapists but as individuals capable of entering caring and emotion-based relationships.”

Wow, that’s pretty evil and man-hating, right there. How does the huge, militant group of man-hating feminists the one guy who gives this presentation sleep at night?

Hell, women slaughter 25% of them in the womb, the majority if child murder is committed by women, and population is declining wherever the posion of feminism is allowed to fester. I’d say 10% is more than enough.

And now we come to it. Abortion is how feminists are destroying men. Considering that around 20% of pregnancies naturally end in a spontaneous miscarriage, that means….GOD IS A FEMINIST.

Ozy, regarding the Wiki hate, I’ve seen it in tinfoil circles (I have a close friend who is unfortunately obsessed with that stuff and forwards me all kinds of crazy nonsense). Basically, Wiki is run by “them.” Choose whichever “them” you want — it’s generally all the same. “They” control access to information through Wiki. I’ve even seen discussion of how Wiki is run by the Jews, and that’s…..well, that’s real bad. Surprisingly, when I point out the rabid bigotry and racism that runs through these circles, my friend just shrugs and puts her blinders on.

By men. Because men are potential rapists. Why would you leave that part out?

It does not advocate avoiding men for fear of rape.

Actually, that’s precisely what it does. It paints men as potential predators, creatures around whom a woman must be on guard at all times.

“She Fears You” is a presentation about stopping rape culture on college campuses. From the about page: “The nationally recognized presentation, She Fears You, identifies for men what they have to gain from ending campus rape – that they are no longer perceived as potential rapists but as individuals capable of entering caring and emotion-based relationships.”

In other words, all men are naturally abusers and rapists who take part in rape culture, and need to be educated to curb these instincts. Yeah, nothing misandric about that at all.

Funny how we don’t see a “Schrodinger’s False Rape Accuser” or a “Black men, whites fear you” lecture.

The question still stands – if it is reasonable for a woman to fear being assaulted by a strange man and thus wiser to avoid him, is it also reasonable for a man to fear being falsely accused of an offence and thus better off avoiding women?

Ha! Good one. I wonder when we’ll be seeing that presentation. 🙂

There’s putting the blinders on, and then there’s donning the tin foil suit. I think NWO is in the latter category. The most useful thing I’ve learned from him is that the “Rothchilds” thing that’s a code word for “Jews”. Of course, my favorite conspiracy theory to laugh at is the guy who thinks he proves that science is a mechanism run/influenced by Kabbalah Jews, and that no Christian should believe in it.

Hengist – Rape is a more common problem than false accusations of it. Really, if I’m talking to a guy who says that all the women he’s “slept with” accuse him of rape, I’m going to be pretty wary of him and his intentions. Most women posses clumps of cells called “brains” and even manage to use them, which is more than I can say for you and your “arguments”.

And so in one paragraph we have male-blaming, snark and personal attacks. Ladies and gents, welcome to feminism.

“Rape is a more common problem than false accusations of it.”

What does that mean? That false accusations aren’t a problem because they’re not as common as rape? (That’s not even a given, by the way, with figures for false accusations ranging from 8% to over 40% depending on the source). But even if they were a small fraction, what then? Statistics also say that violent sexual assault is comparatively rare and 85% of rape victims knew their attacker, so Schrodinger’s Rapist shouldn’t be relevant either, according to your logic.

“Really, if I’m talking to a guy who says that all the women he’s “slept with” accuse him of rape, I’m going to be pretty wary of him and his intentions.”

Of course you would, because in your view men are always to blame and women can do no wrong. I don’t think this is a surprise to anyone at this point.

“Most women posses clumps of cells called “brains” and even manage to use them, which is more than I can say for you and your “arguments”.”

Yeah, I’m guessing you said “most” because you aren’t included in that category.
