The All-Singing, All-Dancing Men’s Rights Movement

Not a picture of Jade Michael and the FTSU Crew

The Men’s Rights Movement now has a theme song! A couple of talented young men calling themselves Jade Michael and the FTSU Singers Crew have put together a catchy little grunge rock number they call Go My Own Way, which will now serve as the opening music for the A Voice for Men internet radio show.

As AVfM head cheese Paul Elam puts it, straining his prose-generating abilities to the breaking point as he attempts to find words eloquent enough to describe this new musical masterpiece:

Jade Michael, artist, professional musician and MRA, founder of Artistry Against Misandry, has taken his talent hammer and given it a mighty swing to our benefit.  He has forged, in the fires of his own passion, the new theme song for AVfM Radio, titled Go My Own Way. It is not to be confused with the similarly titled offering from Fleetwood Mac, Go Your Own Way. No, not in the least. Jade, with his band, Jade Michael and the FTSU Crew, have produced a veritable anthem for the red pill crowd. It is replete with a great, purist rock sound, a touch of humor, attitude, and a ton of gut level, red pill honesty. Pay close attention to the end for the invocation of Thomas James Ball.

Without further ado, here’s the song:


You can find the full lyrics on YouTube and on AVfM. But I thought I’d share a few of my favorite bits.

The song starts off by addressing one of the most savage injustices faced by men today: evil ladies who expect men to hold doors open for them.

And we’re through with holding doors
Entitlements abound
You say that we still hold you down
And you cop that attitude
No remorse or gratitude

Seriously, ladies, would it hurt you to say “thank you” once in a while, to the men who literally enable you to walk through walls, by holding open the doors you would otherwise be unable to open? To paraphrase Barbie: Doors are hard!

Then there’s this bit:

You’re obsessed with my ability
I won’t be your utility
I’ll never carry you
And I sure won’t marry you

Women around the world, consider what you’re losing here: no longer can you expect to marry guys who hate you so much they made a song about how they won’t hold doors open for you!

And let’s not forget:

Cos’ the time has come to fuck your shit up
The time has come to fuck your shit up
The time has come to fuck your shit up

Perhaps I’m missing some of the subtleties here, but this sort of suggests to me that Jade and the Gang are not so much Men Going Their Own Way as they are Men Still Hanging Around Acting Like Assholes — not MGTOW but MSHAALA.

I appreciate the efforts of Jade Michael and the MSHAALA, but I can’t really help but think of this little song-and-dance number, from the excellent Belgian horror film Calviare (The Ordeal), as the Men’s Rights movement’s unofficial anthem.

In case you’re wondering, this scene makes a little bit more sense in the context of the movie itself. A little bit. It’s actually quite a brilliant little film with some interesting gender stuff going on in it, if you can deal with fairly violent horror films. But, oh my lord, TRIGGER WARNINGS for pretty much every trigger there is.

NOTE: In case you’re wondering about the song’s reference to Thomas Ball:  Ball burned himself to death outside a courthouse in Keane, New Hampshire last year in a protest against what he saw as unfair treatment in family court. He hoped that his suicide would inspire other men to start firebombing courthouses and police stations. (This wasn’t mere rhetoric; in the lengthy manifesto he left behind he provided tips on how to make effective Molotov cocktails.) Naturally, many in the MRM have hailed him as a martyr for Men’s Rights.

I get the impression that the MRA idea of a satisfying sexual encounter looks like a cross between a shark attack and watching a woman be mauled by a bear. So the choice of erotica makes sense, I guess.

My favorite Artistry against Misandry picture is the Victorian lady hitting a Victorian dude with a fan, captioned “A portrait of acceptable violence in today’s society.”

Which highlights an important issue, because being struck with a lady’s fan is exactly like having one’s brains bashed in with a shovel.

“Jade and the Gang are not so much Men Going Their Own Way as they are Men Still Hanging Around Acting Like Assholes — not MGTOW but MSHAALA.”

That’s exactly why it’s the perfect anthem.It encapsulates their ridiculousness.

” not MGTOW but MSHAALA”

Sounds like an Indian deity.

If you haven’t read the poetry there, go read it now. “Hungry Hungry Hippocrates” may be my new favorite thing.

Beneath the Jack Riley picture is written:

This raises and important question. Just why is it that mainstream society is only concerned with female sexual pleasure?

Only concerned with female sexual pleasure? Really? Nobody justifies, say, men touching women’s bodies in ways women wouldn’t be permitted to touch men… Nobody argues that the only sex that exists is PIV, and that sex is finished then the man orgasms… There’s no shaming women face for enjoying sex with multiple partners that men don’t face… You’re going to have to explain that to me really slowly, MRAs, like I’m from a totally different culture. Say, one of the cultures on Earth.

I will never again consider anything to be poetry that lacks a line like:

All the anal retentive, convoluted stuff is what serves to feed the belly of sectarianism

Truly lyrical.

Exactly. For example, the Fleetwood Mac is not a piece of shit that was written in 5 minutes.

But Viscaria, men are automatically awesome in bed. Men are pros and women are sluts. Hurray for gender equality!

I have a larger than average tolerance (and even occasional love for) “bad” rock music, but that shit was just terrible on a musical level. It’s not like Possum Kingdom where you start to enjoy it but then realize what the lyrics are saying, it’s just plain out aesthetically awful.

I liked the bit where he clawed up her thighs. The poor woman wasn’t sure if she was aroused or in pain. A back story of the woman’s schizophrenia would have been more interesting.

Well, I’ve had that sensation, but then again I’m a masochist. Someone needs to inform this person that not all women are masochist subs and not all men are sadist doms, or vice versa.

Currently, Jade Michael resides in Nashville, TN with his wife, their pug and 2 cats. In his spare time, you can usually find him performing around town with various musical acts, working out at the gym or volunteering at local animal shelters.

He’s not going very far, is he?

Anyway, Artistry Against Misandry has many fine acts.

Foxy Roxx
Hollywood’s Sunset Strip was the place to be for glittered up Rock n Roll in the 1980’s. What the mainstream public doesn’t know is that it was just as alive in the 90’s with pretty boys pouting, posing and bagging chicks. The Glam underground flourished and Foxy Roxx rode the wave as far as it would take them. This track is one of my favorites as it speaks to MRAs and MGTOWs alike.

Heart Throb Mob
More 90’s Glam Rock from Hollywood. I had the honor of knowing the now deceased drummer of this band, Traci Michaelz. Traci, here’s to you brother, and may others find comfort in your music!

TRACI AND FOXY ARE VERY MANLY

Stephen Gee
This artist proves that musically-inclined MRAs don’t need to use words to express where they are coming from.

Musically-inclined people can express where they are coming from through music. Deep.

Brandon Gebhardt
I had the pleasure of doing an acoustic gig with Gebhardt during his brief stay in Nashville. This song sticks out as relative to MRAs. How many times have you searched for a reason to stay with a toxic female who plays games with your head? Perhaps enough to groove on some shoegazer pop?

I’m not at all sure what’s going on with this last sentence.

MyCatIsInsane
Powerfully pensive, MyCatIsInsane’s music puts you in just the right head space to write an insightful blog/article for your favorite MRA website. Mmmmm…minors and majors mixed together.

MyCatIsInsane is pensive, insightful, and deep.

Element 47
From the clever marching-stomp “subliminally” placed behind a barrage of vapid vanity commercials to the demand of “shut your dirty, diseased mouth”, Nazis from Narcissus delivers a message of protest to society’s obsession with narcissistic behavior. …I have dug up this track from my vault of old bands that I was in. Ahh…to be young again.

Shhh! It’s subliminal.

As heard on A Voice For Men Radio – here is Dangers of Your Love. I tossed in One Life as well, just in case you need a boot in the ass to get up and get on with the good stuff in your life. Oh yeah – I play with these guys around Nashville. So if you’re ever in town, look us up. We’ll let you buy us a few beers.

Ugh at that last sentence: Shouldn’t this guy and his band be inviting his listeners to party with them, not ham-handedly demanding deference?

If our culture cared so much about female sexuality, it wouldn’t be calling women sluts and whores for daring to have more than 1 or 2 partners. It wouldn’t use women’s bodies to sell everything and anything.

How can these…things…even suggest that male sexuality is shamed. Everything is fucking catered to them on a silver platter. They’re just pissed they can’t grope and catcall without impunity and that they need to actually get consent first. Poor oppwessed babies.

An MRA started to fret
As her vagina was all but wet.
“I held open the door,
What could you want more?”
He said to the girl he just met.

ROFL the graphic art is AWESOME!! It’s just like, MRAs discovered Powerpoint … Anyone with any artistic inclination at all could troll the shit out of that website.

I got a MGTOW anthem right here.

No wait, even they actually go in the end. Never mind.
