Oh boy. Over on The Spearhead, the good old trusty Spearhead, a fella called Rmaxd has some bold new ideas to share with the world.
Well, they’re not really new, or bold, or true, and some of them kind of seem to contradict each other. But they are, indisputably, ideas. And because he’s a dude, they’re automatically good, because dudes are the dynamic, creative force behind all historical progress. So it’s no wonder this comment of his got more than two dozen upvotes.
Rmaxd starts off by addressing the manginas of the world, and every man who might be considering the benefits of manginahood:
Grow some balls, be masculine, & these so called feminists have zero power
Because NATURE.
We always revert to our biology & nature, over idealism, this is why feminism is dead in the water
And NATURE says women should stay home and cook and pop out babies.
Women in our society are so fucked up, precisely because they rejected their biological need to be part of a society, through their children, husbands & a family
It’s time for a little thought experiment.
Imagine if men were no longer engineers & soldiers & scientists, imagine the biological havoc they would cause on society, all that intellectual brilliance channelled on society, on the loss of their biological roles, instead of as engineers, soldiers & scientists
I’m having a little bit of a hard time imagining, because that doesn’t make any fucking sense. Is he suggesting that the world would collapse if more dudes stayed home and tended the kids?
But never mind, because Rmaxd is on to his next point, which is that women are terrible at math and this makes them OBSOLETE!
In a technology based society, women are the first to be discarded, their lack of scientific & mathematical skills are a liability to our technological culture
Also, they’re lazy and don’t invent shit. Even though by keeping them at home and denying them education the men of the world gave them ample opportunity to invent all sorts of shit, they chose instead to sit on their fat asses and eat bon bons.
Women have in fact been stayathome moms for centuries, theyve NEVER had to work for centuries, they have now had centuries of shelter & protection from corporations, theyve had massive amounts of leisure, in fact more leisure then most working males through out history
& what did women do with that leisure, with all that time & opportunity to progress science?
Women became biological luddites, they became entitled, inbred & backwards & technologically liabilities in our present technologically based age
When women should’ve been developing technologies to makeup for their inability to logic & reason, in the same way men developed music & art in order for men to experience emotions, all they did was call for young men to destroying their own futures, to be used as walking wallets & chattle
You can tell how innovative Rmaxd is, because he’s totally just innovated a new way to spell “chattel.”
Anyway, QED, fuck women.
Women are liabilities, we no longer need women to maintain our social networks, we have everything from mobile phones to the internet
Huh. Declaring half of humanity expendable. I was under the impression that MRA dudes considered that sort of thinking to be the equivalent of committing GENOCIDE. Seems some of them were making a big stink about that the other day, when a couple of ladies made some similar remarks about men.
Weird. Because MRA dudes are upvoting this, instead of gathering together in angry mobs on the internet to EXPOSE this dude’s personal information and talk about Fucking His Shit Up.
Never mind, though, because Rmaxd isn’t done with his case against ladies.
We no longer need them to maintain morality, as theyre incapable of morality, a womans ability to destroy herself, in the same fat women destroy their own bodies, is unprecedented, give a woman enough leisure & freetime, & all she’s capable of is how to enslave all of society, to ensure society does the same for women everywhere, irrespective of the results
Damn. So women getting fat is part of a sinister plot to enslave mankind?
This all sounds pretty dire for us civilization-creating dudes.
Happily, as Rmaxd explains in another comment, the ladies are so crazily self-destructive that they will fail in their evil designs, despite “being bankrolled by the rich upper class.” Just like the evil radical blacks back in the 1970s:
[W]omen are following the black activism handbook of the 70′s. …
[N]ear the end of the black movement, as the more mainstream, publicly accepted part of black militancy was rejected & debunked, the more radical components of the movement, began attacking its own supporters, in particular the white supporters of black rights, & they also started attacking blacks who were sympathetic to white males
We see the exact same thing happening with feminism, as the more popular & acceptable parts of feminism have now been rejected by popular culture, ie the colossal failure of stayathome dads
Because nothing is more evil and against NATURE than stay-at-home dads! It’s like sodomy squared.
Anyway, the evil ladies are doomed.
They now start becoming more radical, their antagonism & alienation of men, especially manginas & feminists will inevitably destroy them
As we all know women & especially special rights movements, are always self destructive, as the solutions are never radical enough.
So back to the homes, ladies, where you can return to fulfilling NATURE’s role for the females of the species: sitting on your fat asses and eating bon bons and being terrible at math. Because that is nature’s way.
I had a
The foundations of art (painting, sculpting, perspective, shading, etc.) are also very old. So are musical scales, architecture, anatomy, biology, chemistry, physics, trigonometry, geometry, calculus, algebra, pretty much all of mathematics, grammar…
And Hera got pregnant from eating lettuce, a food men believed they should avoid in Ancient Greece because it would make them sterile!
Bitches, gaining from what men can’t have.

“Aw, but I like intellectual conversations with my boyfriend. Otherwise we wouldn’t have anything to talk about. Apart from sex maybe.”
I’m not sure if I’m supposed to tell you that your boyfriend probably doesn’t, or if I’m supposed to scoff at the very idea of you having an intellectual conversation. More research must be performed on this important matter. Please make me a sandwich whilst I contemplate these paradigm-shifting questions. What do you mean make my own?!!!! See this is why we don’t have our flying cars!!!
I hate to agree with him but MRAL is almost certainly right that a higher percentage of inventions were developed by men than women. This however is because women were largely denied the opportunities and education necessary, and those who did manage to fight through entrenched sexism (for example Lise Meitner) were often discounted or had their work outright stolen by male colleagues.
Also I think it’s fairly well established that there is an accelerating rate of technological advancement, especially since the Industrial Revolution. However that doesn’t mean inventions prior to then aren’t important, agriculture is probably the single most important invention in history (even more than fire, money, or writing).
I dunno, guys, I think that saying “women did too invent lots of important things,” while true, tends to erase women’s historical oppression. Throughout most of history, almost all of the educated people who had leisure time to invent and discover and create were, in fact, male. This isn’t to say that women didn’t invent, discover, and create things (after all, to quote Virginia Woolf, Anonymous was a woman), just that there was and is a huge amount of systematic oppression bent on keeping women from doing it and that we do have proportionally few discoveries, inventions, and creations by women.
However, when women had opportunities, they showed themselves to be as talented as any man (Hypatia of Alexandra, bitches! Aspasja!).
Religion, atheism, philosophy, flight, trains, steam engines, boats, the telephone…
Yeah, a lot of stuff may have been invented in our era, but compared to the shitload of things created before our time, it’s really not all that much.
Shadow, yep, Moxon is a real treat.
And that glowing blurb from Warren Farrell on that page helps to cement his reputation as a douchebag.
Who invented burritos?
Because they rock.
@ozy: I totally agree that women have been oppressed and therefore unable to invent/take credit for their inventions throughout history, thus leading to less inventions/discoveries/etc. by women.
It was just MRAL’s phrasing of “important” inventions that I was disputing. Women have had less inventions, but what they have made is just as important.
Ok, there WAS, Ozymandias, I don’t think there is anymore. The wimmin makes up 60 PER SENT of collegers.
“Who invented burritos?”
Mexicans? =P
“See this is why we don’t have our flying cars!!!”
We have flying cars already. They’re called airplanes.
One part of feminism that really chaps my brown asshole is the tendency- much like MRAs- to “ride the coattails” of dead women, except it’s their victimization, rather than their awesomeness, claimed.
Nonsense, Joanna, airplanes are clearly flying buses or train cars!

@ Lauralot
Well, technically I think Hera had Hephaestus without Zeus, but he was a deformed cripple as a result. So even for the gods both man-bits and lady-bits are a useful combination.
And where has this happened in this thread?
Saying women have been oppressed through history isn’t “riding [their] coattails.” It’s just, you know, staying true to history.
Lauralot: Yes, but “before our era” is also a whole fuckton bigger than our era. Homo sapiens has been around for 250,000 years. The Industrial Revolution has been around for 250 years. A whole lot more than 1/100,000 of the inventions that have been invented have been invented since the Industrial Revolution, even if it’s less than 95% as MRAL said. I think it’s fair to say that there’s been a huge explosion in the number of inventions invented recently.
MRAL, because you were trolling for so long, people are going to assume you’re trolling and treat you as a troll, regardless of whether you actually are trying to make reasonable points. Consider it a consequence of your actions. 🙂
1/1,000, I mean. I can math…
I started using a computer before anyone I personally know. I now manage a wesbite, which requires that I write the stories, publish the content to SEO specifications, onput HTML tags, etc. Wow, I must be a freak!
This may be a little off-topic, but I have an aunt who’s 72, and not the sharpest knife in the drawer. She once told me (when I was single) that men are threatened by intelligent women and that I should pretend to be dumb to land a man! Yes, then I could have wound up with an MRA who would have had me chained to the stove. (I happen to love to cook, but you catch my drift.) It’s amazing how many people, even women, still think this way.
Opps, blockquote fail.
MRAL, there’s still significant discrimination against women in STEM fields, particularly in the higher levels. That isn’t affected by the fact that girls outachieve boys in most of the educational system, and we need to figure out why that is and get the boys up to snuff. Both/and, dude, both/and.
“I’m not trolling, I said something provably wrong and then Ray engaged me about it by asking me to back up my assertions.”
MRAL,
I fixed that for you.
@David
True dat. My favorite is the quote from the journalist “not so much racist as a visionary”. someone needs to put dude on to the long and rich traditions and history of the “Go back to X” movement

“We have flying cars already. They’re called airplanes.”
Dear God I hope not!!!!
