Another day, another threat – sorry, prediction – of impending violence towards women from someone on The Spearhead. This time from a fellow called James, in his twenties:
The OLDER MEN simply do not understand what it is like to be a young man today.
I will say one thing though- a very big percent of young men of my generation do not believe in this feminism or white knight bullshit, and they have very little tolerance towards it.
Older men will allow themselves to get ass raped in divorce courts, but the younger men of my generation have no such tolerance.
So if the younger women think they are going to treat the younger men with the same level of hatred that the older women do to the older men, they have a big surprise waiting for them.
1. Either the men will just entirely boycott the younger women
or
2. They will actively fight for their rights, even with force, if it requires it
What I mean by that is, the younger generation of men are much more violent than the older generation. So in plain English, if women think they are going to treat the younger generation of men like shit, then we are going to see a huge increase in violence against women.
In short, the men of my generation are not as willing to tolerate the abuse from man hating women as the older men are. Young women would be very wise to take note of this.
Unfair quote-mining on my part? Not exactly. James got 72 upvotes for this bit of wisdom on The Spearhead, and only 8 downvotes.
Meanwhile, our old friend at the Pro-Male/Anti-Feminist Technology blog highlighted James’ comment in a post of his own, quoting the whole thing, and adding his own spin:
The younger you go on average you will find less tolerance for anything pro-female. This is not surprising. Even looking at my own life, I have been dealing with feminism since I was in elementary school especially if we define feminism correctly as feminine-ism. I remember (female) teachers being pro-female and anti-male going back to first grade. As bad as I had it, it is worse for men younger than me. They’re not going to listen to lies about how women are oppressed because all they have seen with their own eyes are the opposite. …
By 2020 the balance between men who are currently old vs. men who are currently young will have shifted. There will be less old men who remember life pre-feminism. There will be more young men who have spent their entire lives under the feminist jack boot. There will be more men who are completely fed up with women. Around 2020 there will be a lot more men willing to take radical direct action against feminism.
“Radical direct action against feminism?” What does this mean? Generalized violence against women, as James seems to suggest? Firebombing police stations and courthouses, as MRA “martyr” Tom Ball urged in his manifesto? Like most of those in the Men’s Rights movement who like to talk ominously about what they hope will be a massive anti-feminist backlash, the PMAFT blogger is vague about what exactly this might entail. But it’s not hard to connect the dots here.
Protip: MRAs, if you don’t want people to see the Men’s Rights movement as a hate movement — you need to stop posting, stop upvoting, stop even tolerating this kind of hateful shit.
Kryie- is you are willing to agree normal behavior is also having chicken and dumplings for lunch, playing tug with the large dog and doing the first pass of packing for an upcoming SF con then you have my vote for Arbiter of Behavior.
Oh, look. Meller’s back. Excuse me while I find a teeny, tiny container for my enthusiasm.
Almost forgot! Meller can kindly FUCK RIGHT OFF.
Need to know: Argh, so close! Normal behavior doesn’t include eating meat. The rest is ok, even though most dogs scare me.
Can I steal this burn? 😀
Normal behavior includes talking with a squeaky voice because Arizona sucks.
I don’t understand Meller. If I’m female, however I act is a female way of acting. I can no more act non-female than I can act like I don’t breathe oxygen.
It’s not “the hurricane.” It’s things that men decide to do to us. You aren’t a damn force of nature. You’re a person who could stop himself if he wanted, but he likes attacking and threatening people. Own it, asshole.
MollyRen: Go for it! I think a buckyball would be about the right size for my joy over Meller reappearing…
I would like to second DSC’s “go fuck yourself” as a desexed and somewhat diseased* personage.
I would like to submit my application as Arbiter of Behavior. My platform is that everyone may do as they like, except they are not allowed to be dicks, and also watching My Little Pony and reading the works of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett are mandatory, unless you do not like them, in which case you may apply for a waiver.
*do braindiseases count?
^ *applause, presentation of preferred burger*
ozy: you’ve got my vote, I’d be too sadistic to be a good AoB.
Hello DKM you ultimate asshole!
As promised, here’s a link of and copy to the comment that got you banned (the last/latest one–there were earlier ones) for a while.
This is never going away you know–the only way I’ll stop posting this as long as I’m around, and as long as you’re around, is if you spew something worse about my graduate student being murdered by ex-husband.
DKM making MORE vague promises of violent attacks by “normal” men on women: Don’t be too surprised, if sowing this wind, feminists reap the hurricane!
There are those of us who will not tolerate a diseased, hermaphroditic and desexed humanity! Says the man whose primary relationships are with his dolls because real women refuse to be the “normal” subservient slaves he wishes to have.
You are, as many of us have said before, truly vile.
Ok I drew Kendra’s true story about the T-rex and the moon and the gold:

“Fine as long as you don’t upset him” is not an acceptable minimum standard of human behavior. The acceptable minimum standard is “fine.”
Meller, sweetie, it’s not April Fools Day any more. It’s too late to make statements that are a perfect inversion of reality.
Peacful change has been underway for a long time. I know that it upsets you, since it means that you can’t find a woman who’s half doll and half kitten with all normal cat personality characteristics removed, but such is life.
PS : More vague threats? Keep shaking your fist at modernity, old man.
Kladle, that cartoon is most excellent.
Kladle, that cartoon creates happiness and joy!
Thank you for the cartoon, Kladle!
Kyrie, of course that’s normal behavior. It’s a crossover hit! It’s telling human stories in a fantasy world!
And yes, kladle, that is beautiful.
kladle: Late to the party, but that cartoon is wonderful.
PS : More vague threats? Keep shaking your fist at modernity, old man.
Cassandra-none of these MRA types are old men. They are almost entirely inept somewhat antisocial ‘tweens and 20 somethings who have some defect that makes them repulsive to the opposite sex but still have this crazy entitlement attitide that they deserve the best female on earth. But while they’re waiting for the sexbots to be invented they’re learning “game” from some silly guy in a clown hat so that they can psychologically overpower the hottest female so that she’ll fall to the ground at their feet and begged to be fucked because they learned some magic irresistable secret pickup line lol
Let’s also remember that the internet attracts a billion people and that you’re looking at a handful of losers who tend to associate with other losers like themselves. They tend to live in their own bizarro world
Meller is an old man. 60-something, if I recall correctly.
thx everybody!
@ Pell, while there are young MRAs there is also a solid contingent of middle-aged men or older. Some of these guys are divorced (more than once, even) or have multiple children. As Cassandra said, Meller is old; our resident troll NWOSlave is over 30; AntZ, another troll, if he is telling the truth, he’s a mid-aged father; Paul Elam, the guy who runs A Voice for Men, is middle aged. So while the PUAs might skew young, I wouldn’t be surprised if MRAs actually skew towards the old end.
Also, ‘tweens? I’ve never seen anyone I suspected of being THAT young anywhere in the manosphere.
