Readers! Commenters! I am now (a bit late, I know) collecting nominations for Man Boobz Troll of the Year. Put forward your choice (or choices), and make the case for them, in the comments below. Feel free to make up your own categories for Troll Awards as well; I want to recognize the many and varied contributions of our many and varied trolls.
The winner(s) will receive little tiaras. But they have to go buy them for themselves, with their own money.
I am also collecting nominations for Man Boobz Troll Hunter of the Year – that is, the commenter or commenters here who you think have fought the good fight in the bestest possible ways. Again, you are free to make up your own categories for these awards.
The winner(s) here will receive a FREE viewing of the movie TrollHunter!It’s Norwegian! And really quite awesome, a faux documentary about the life of a Trolljegeren working secretly for the Norwegian government. Scary and hilarious!
Oh, and by “free viewing” I mean you can watch it on Netflix instant, if you’ve got Netflix. Hey, I’m kind of broke here. On the plus side, you can watch it even if you don’t win!
About a year ago a noted libertarian speaker said, in my presence, that his sister, who possessed a fine voice and had joined a concert troupe, should “stay at home with her children; that is her place.” The old Church idea!
” Stay at home, ye malcontents! Be patient, obedient, submissive! Darn our socks, mend our shirts, wash our dishes, get our meals, wait on us and mind the children! Your fine voices are not to delight the public nor yourselves; your inventive genius is not to work, your fine art taste is not to be cultivated, your business facilities are not to be developed; you made the great mistake of being born with them, suffer for your folly! You are women, therefore housekeepers, servants, waiters, and child’s nurses!

Actually, this is a good opportunity, hey, Manboobzettes? Given the above and whatever else you may find out about her.. What do you think of Voltarine DeCleyre? Do you like her more than Meller does after all? Hmmmm….
Score one for libertarian founders!
Oh, and cause you can never have enough Exquisite Rebel –
“Look how the ideal of beauty has been marred by this obscenity notion. Divest yourselves of prejudice for once. Look at some fashion-slaved woman, her waist surrounded by a high-board fence called a corset, her shoulders and hips angular from the pressure above and below, her feet narrowest where they should be widest, the body fettered by her everlasting prison skirt, her hair fastened tight enough to make her head ache and surmounted by a thing of neither sense nor beauty, called a hat, ten to one a hump upon her back like a dromedary, – look at her, and then imagine such a thing as that carved in marble! Fancy a statue in Fairmount Park with a corset and bustle on. Picture to yourselves the image of the equestrienne. We are permitted to ride, providing we sit in a position ruinous to the horse; providing we wear a riding-habit long enough to hide the obscene human foot, weighed down by ten pounds of gravel to cheat the wind in its free blowing, so running the risk of disabling ourselves completely should accident throw us from the saddle. Think how we swim! We must even wear clothing in the water, and run the gauntlet of derision, if we dare battle in the surf minus stockings! Imagine a fish trying to make headway with a water-soaked flannel garment upon it. Nor are you yet content. The vile standard of obscenity even kills the little babies with clothes. The human race is murdered, horribly, “in the name of” Dress.”
…Uh oh, I don’t think she would have liked your dollies outfits….
Bad libertarian! Bad! 😉
And yes, yes, I’ll get back to you tomorrow. But Voltarine wouldn’t let me not add her to the discussion…

And because it’s awesome, the entirety of Sex Slavery.
I can’t find any clips from the Dollhouse episode, but it turns out Criminal Minds had an episode with the same plot, and it’s all on Youtube:

LOL at that ridiculous, overblown response to my video of a Victorian stripper mouse.
Darn, my huge blockquote fail totally undercuts my condescension. Also, @Lauralot:
Shudder. Skeeved me out more than anything else on that super skeevy show, and totally a good fit for Meller.
I hate to disappoint you, but I am a very mild, quiet, easygoing (for the most part), largely solitary man who enjoys, among many other things, collecting a harem of fashion dolls. I am absolutely NOT a serial killer, or any other kind of killer, for that matter! My natural attitude toward living things is one of gentleness for those which I like, and a wish to avoid those I dislike. I would no more be capable of kidnapping, raping, or torturing women than I would be capable of sawing off my own right hand!
In all of my posts, I wish for a completely voluntary and willing female companion, NOT one whom I would have to force in any way. I already said, many times, that she is free to leave when she wants, and her pleasure is my pleasure. I haven’t been successful (yet) in finding the little lady lovely of my choice, where human females are concerned, but hope springs eternal!!
There is NOTHING sinister about me, in fact, even viewing such fare in cinema or on TV sometimes gives me nightmares.
I hope that this puts you at ease!
They knew that “A man is the head of his home the way Christ is the head of his Church” even if they were personally atheists!
lol you sure about that one?
That was more than ten lies!

Referring to your collection as a harem has put me more at ease than anything you can ever say
Woe betide him if he ever does an image search for “Victorian porn”.
“My natural attitude toward living things is one of gentleness for those which I like, and a wish to avoid those I dislike.”
And this totally explains why you empathise with the hypothetical boyfriends who might be driven to beat up the commenter here by our evil shrike-like words, and why you spend so much time commenting on this blog, which is full of people who you dislike.
I read, and enjoyed, “the Pearl”, a charming collection of Victorian porn some years ago. No “woe betide me” ever happened!
But.. but those women are such bad, bad girls! Well, whatever, my mistake I guess XD
Yeah, Meller, you don’t like us, so why aren’t you avoiding us?
Also, what perfume?
Kinder, Kuche, Kirche?
…

Meller perfumes his dolls? o_O
Uhh, where was this latest revelation made? Connoiseurs of human eccentricity will be most grateful for this information.
Eau de Misogyny.
I’m curious about acceptably feminine fragrances also. I suppose my favorite Shalimar is far too assertive.
I’m thinking a particularly sweet and cloying, very artificial smelling rose fragrance.
He probably uses Youth Dew.

It is true that the phrase “Kinder, kuche, kirche”–children, church, and kitchen–had its origins in late-XIX century Germany, which, whatever its flaws, still allowed men to be men and women to be women.
Hitler merely perverted and corrupted what was developing by the 1880’s into the signature civilization in Western Europe, and led their regression to utter ignorance and barbarism. I doubt if such a definition would have lasted for more than a few years in the degraded and barbarous national Socialist Workers party of Germany (NSDAP). The Third Reich may well have spawned its own strain of feminists (perhaps as militant and gender-confused as those in the USA or UK) well before the ’70s, when you became such a nuisance in the West (or whatever was left of it).
Oh, if WWI had never been fought!!
Nothing from Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab.. those Succubi!

You refuse to believe the people here who say they are happily married, so why should any of us believe you?
Plus, what they say about every single serial killer ever: “he was such a quiet solitary man, who’d have thunk it.”
*POINTS FINGER DRAMATICALLY*
MURDERER!
