Just a little heads up for any of you in the Chicago area: I’ll be speaking at Northwestern University on Monday, as part of its annual “Sex Week.”
My topic? “How to hate women and have terrible sex: Misogynistic sex myths, and how they ruin sex for everyone.” Nice Guys, Friend Zones, and the Alpha Asshole Cock Carousel will all make appearances.
The talk will be at 8 PM in Room G02 of Annenberg Hall on the Northwestern Campus in Evanston.
(Here’s a map.)
There will be free condoms and lube. (Apparently.)
For more about sex week, see the official website, or take a look at this piece in the Daily Northwestern.
Sex week is sponsored by the College Feminists; I’m talking at the invitation of Men Against Rape and Sexual Assault.
I’ll be writing the lecture over the weekend, so please feel free to offer suggestions as to which misogynistic sex myths I should talk about.
EDITED TO ADD: The Spearhead has discovered that I’m doing this talk. W. F. Price writes about it with his usual objectivity, by which I mean that his piece is filled with lies and weird projection.
You need a time out. Go to your corner.
lake, not getting consent is rape. I know you like to pretend it’s all so confusing, but it’s not. Get consent, being wet or dry has nothing to do with getting consent.
I went way downhill in this thread. My first post is a dance. I think I’d better go download a movie or summat.
p.s. Good luck on the talk, I’m sure it will be great!
Thanks! I don’t think anyone had mentioned “physical arousal and mental arousal are totally the same thing, ergo, anyone who’s wet/erect wants to have sex with you, no matter how much they SAY they don’t, and anyone who’s not doesn’t, no matter how much they SAY they do!” on the list of things for David to mention yet. That is definitely an incredibly stupid and misogynist (and misandrist, seeing as it justifies mistreating men, too, not that you care) sex myth, so well done on coming up with it!
Congratulations Dave!
I’d really appreciate some mythbusting on the idea that “Women are never sexually frustrated, never lack for partners if they want one, and never get turned down by people they are interested in.”
Also, an old but good one, that all women want nothing more than penetration to achieve orgasm.
Seconding:
Upvoting this myth:
This OT but since hating men and helping or glorifying women is always on topic, let’s take a little stroll to Canada.
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/life/health/new-health/health-news/youth-suicide-rates-rising-among-canadian-girls/article2389777/?utm_medium=Feeds%3A%20RSS%2FAtom&utm_source=Life&utm_content=2389777
It appears suicides amongst the privileged class in Canada has risen. Not nearly so high as the mook class, but it has risen. So now it’s time to throw resources at the problem. When boys/men die who cares? When it’s the blessed ones, it’s a problem needing a solution. Time and money is no object.

Or how about good old Obama.
http://www.politico.com/politico44/2012/04/obama-campaign-wants-to-train-army-of-women-119696.html
I mean, so what if at the bottom of the economic, political, media, education, homeless, diseased, injured, early death, jobless poll is an all mens club. Women must be catered to as the only class that matters.
As the article states, women are flocking to the Obama camp. Free birth control as oppossed to paying for youself. Quota’s for high paying employment and education instead of earning it. More help in divorcing your hubby and how much you can get. Why the list of “free” help Obama is offering women is endless. Even though it actually costs trillions in interest laden debt. Hmmmm, I wonder if that has anything to do with economic collapse?
———————
Speaking of divorce, remember, there are many ways to rake hubby over the coals and “have it all!” Since I care sooo much about women here’s a site called livestrong.com.
http://www.livestrong.com/article/183684-divorce-tricks-for-women/
See! There’s lotsa ways to totally destroy a mans life. The State is on your side.
Someone apparently is too inexperienced to have heard of anal sex or anything that isn’t PIV.
David, I’d definitely talk about friendzoning and the commodity model. People aren’t vending machines, you don’t put in a certain number of coins (literal or figurative) and get sex as a result, don’t hang around pretending to be okay with just friends if you want more because that means you’re a lying asshole, nobody owes it to you to desire you or want to date you, etc.
Also as Holly said, if someone gets pissy with you for asking “Do you want to have sex” because it “killed the mood” don’t have sex with them.
That orgasms are both the point and the end of sex – which often manifests as the guy being done with sex as soon as he comes, and people thinking that they have failed as a sex partner if their partner doesn’t orgasm.
Oh, and “smells like fish.” It’s part of the larger “vaginas and their fluids are inherently disgusting” myth, but it’s so common and gross it deserves its own shout-out.
@Shaenon
Yes, yes, you’re so clever. You must feel so smug and superior. Just like being back in grade school when the teachers reaffirmed over and over how precious and clever girls are and all the worlds problems and evils are caused by men.
http://www.owensoundsuntimes.com/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=3519117
It must be quite the heady experience to spend your entire life being told how superior you are. From empathy to parking cars, women are better!
Thanks, everyone! I will definitely be talking about a lot of these.
Also, I don’t know if there will be video of the talk. I will probably be recycling chunks of the talk for blog posts, though.
NWO, you’re on moderation for saying horrible personal shit about specific individuals. I pretty much let through all of your comments.
Also, you have literally posted 2900 + comments here, moderated man.
NWO, if you’re tired of moderation, GO AWAY. You really won’t be missed.
You said this gem:
Those men are not you.
It might be good to highlight the inherent contradictions in this whole mindset:
– women are gross and crazy, but men derive status from having sex with a lot of partners, and there are whole subcultures devoted to getting men more sex. And somehow, men are still considered more rational.
– women do not inherently desire sex, and it is purely an economic transaction, but women who’ve had a lot of partners are sluts and morally inferior (rather than economically savvy, for instance)
– men are incurable horndogs who can’t control their sexual impulses, but they are also almost universally more competent and rational than women
– it is perfectly acceptable to deride women for being shallow if they prefer only to date or have sex with men they find attractive, while simultaneously fat-shaming and otherwise insulting or disregarding women who do not meet societal standards of beauty.
And so on.
If you can’t see that Obama is doing all that to secure the female vote then you are dumber than I though.
But you know your republican candidates aren’t exactly making it that hard either since they want a US similar to the one you want. Namely with women shackled to the kitchen stove, barefoot and pregnant.
that above comment is for NWO btw
and while I’m at it, the Globe and Mail article said suicide rates for males HAVE DECLINED! you should be happy for this Slavey, especially considering its coming from socialist, feminized Canada!
luke123, stop thinking bodily fluids = consent.
NWO isn’t happy about suicide rates for men and boys declining, because he only wants suicide rates for women and girls to increase.
I mainly remember grade school as a haze of confusion in math class, followed by a haze of humiliation when I got shut out of all the cliques in the lunchroom, but okay. 😛

“I think you should be moderated or banned next time you post shit like this without references.”
And here’s my reference. Your very own Big Daddy. How he loves his little girls and holds the in high esteem far above mere mortal man.
http://www.bwjp.org/files/bwjp/articles/Primary_Aggressor_Chart_Final.pdf
It goes State by State. Even if you go by the least discriminatory state, it still favors women far above men.
Let’s take the least discriminatory.
1) Prior complaint of DV
Of course a complaint is whoever makes a phone call. Boyfriend makes you mad, you call cops, prior complaint has been met. Whoever runs to Big Daddy first gets the turnpike easypass. Woman is the winner.
2) Severity of injury
Men are much stronger and bruise less easily. Woman hits man, does little damage, man retaliates, woman gets bruised. Woman is the winner.
3) The likelyhood of future injury.
How can that possibly be determined, and it also has no bearing on who the intiator is. Woman is the winner.
4) Wether one person acted in self defense.
Again, how can this be determined other than whose acting more hysterical and crying? Woman is the winner.
These are the least of them, and they all favor women having free reign.
They of course go on with such things as
(b) the extent of injuries.
If I attack the “rock” he’s gonna kick my ass. I will be more injured even though I’m at fault. Woman is the winner.
Or how about this one
“The dominant aggressor is the person determined to be the most significant, rather than the first, aggressor.
That puppy pretty much flat out says, “man” is the guilty party. Woman is the winner.
——————
I’ve backed up my assertation with facts. You’ve backed up yours with lies, manipulation and what you feel. I thought I just asked for women to stop trying to emotionally manipulate every situation to portray all women as victims?
——————
It seems the reason that you, as a woman, demand my moderation is because the truth hurts.
@NWO
Ms. Jordan’s opinion is wrong. Men do not lack empathy, understanding, and compassion. Trolls like you, on the other hand…
If you find out about a podcast or something, let us know.
More on Jean-Renee’s point http://manboobz.com/2012/04/07/im-giving-a-talk-at-northwestern-university-on-monday-topic-how-to-hate-women-and-have-terrible-sex/comment-page-1/#comment-142969
I’ve also had more than enough of the myth that rape is worse for men and boys and the oft-repeated never-substantiated claim that male victims are less likely to report because they feel more shame and stigma than female victims. You’ve got plenty of material for your talk already though. I don’t know where you’d even begin or end on this subject.
LOL claudia http://manboobz.com/2012/04/07/im-giving-a-talk-at-northwestern-university-on-monday-topic-how-to-hate-women-and-have-terrible-sex/comment-page-1/#comment-143010
I know Roberta Sandoval from elsewhere. I could swear he’d claimed to be a lesbian. So much for his lucky boyfriend.
Shorter Mags: feminists use words to describe things LOL that means they’re automatically wrong. Eye rape and patriarchy are exactly as valid as each other because I’ve put them in a list together!
Come to think of it, that’s actually longer Mags by word count…
@Quackers
“If you can’t see that Obama is doing all that to secure the female vote then you are dumber than I though.”
And yet women are flocking to Obama for the, “freebies” that have, and will continue to destroy the economy. He’s got your vote, so whose the dumber one? Mirror, mirror on the wall whose the dumbest of the all? Like the article says, virtually all women are going to vote for Obama. I’m dumber because you vote for Obama. Can your accountability fall any lower, oh empathetic one?
