Here’s a preview of the talk I’ll be giving at Northwestern tonight.
Remember, the talk — on “How to hate women and have terrible sex: Misogynistic sex myths, and how they ruin sex for everyone” – will be at 8 PM in Room G02 of Annenberg Hall on the Northwestern Campus in Evanston.
(Here’s a map.)
See you there!
Oh, and also, The Spearhead has discovered that I will be giving a 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.
EDITED TO ADD: And now the Men’s Rights Subreddit gets in on the fun! Apparently they are also very concerned about my weight.
“David Futrelle To Teach Coeds How To Have Good Sex” ?
Spin, Price! Spin like a top! Yes, dance for our amusement, chump!
One would think he would be thanking David for making sure that women are good in bed. Because then that would mean in the extremely unlikely chance that Price manages to convince a woman that sex with him is not the worst idea since Antonin Scalia’s nomination for SCOTUS, the two of them could then have nice sex.
Commenter Ode explains:
David! You are directly contributing to uppity bitches spending money on an education they will obviously never use! Won’t you think of the betas??
Or maybe they will be like my best friend’s parents and are overjoyed their daughter is moving back home.
Or they might even get jobs, and pay off their student debt, with or without spending some time in their parents’ homes! Kind of like many men do! Haha, I kid. Obviously women can’t get jobs after they graduate, because… girl reasons! Best not to allow us to go to University at all.
The comments are really rich. Mr. American from the last post is back:
Me say? What is he, Jar-Jar Binks? Somehow I don’t remember Jar-Jar ever saying “No, YOU!” in the movies, but then again I may have erased the memories of it from my brain out of desperation.
” lies and weird projection”
Internet.
There should really be a Spearhead bingo game.
Suggested items:
fertility
“consequences”
cats, and the care thereof
women learn things, proving they’re stupid
feminism is destroying culture
mating strategy
chivalry
pseudo-altruism
Surely if it were Jar Jar Binks it would have been “Mesa say” gawwwd why does my brain burn?
And what post do you hold with Northwestern, David, that they could get you dismissed from?
What in hell is a “gender-feminist” and how, exactly, does one objectify women?
Wow.
I just. Wow.
Could someone give me a link to this argument? It’s not that I doubt that it happened, it’s that I want to see it for myself.
oh no, not the ‘i know you are but what i am?’ defense

In their version of Godwinning, Futrelle is worse than Zombie Dworkin apparently.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Good luck. I’m sure the choir will enjoy your sermon.
Good lord there’s a lot of hatred of fat men in that comment thread. Remember, men … the MRM is standing up for your rights! Unless your body doesn’t look the way MRAs think it should, in which case the MRM deems you unworthy of notice and worthy only of ridicule. Good for you, Spearheaders. Way to support all men.
Magdelyn’s incisive, biting critique just made my entire world-view implode.
I like how the Spearhead is comparing David to a man who committed sexual assault and had child porn–two things they usually have no problem with.
I don’t know how you can tell someone is fertile until you’ve conceived a child with them or subjected them to considerable medical testing. But then again I don’t know how the Spearhead got the idea that this is a women’s talk David is giving to only women.
And as for the “if someone talks to women, they want to fuck them,” which is basically Price’s entire thesis here, all I can say is:
Projection: it’s not just for movies anymore.
Smash cut to MRAs complaining about feminists using “you must not get laid” as a shaming tactic.
Holy crap. It’s like a game of telephone with these people, except that there are only two steps from “the school is handing out condoms and lube at the talk” to “David is breaking out the vibrators and dildos.” It’d be impressive if it wasn’t so damned creepy.
You’d think that, with David being a man, the spearhead would be really concerned about his safety. He is going to a collge to talk in front of women! One false accusation and he could be locked up in jail for life! But no, apparently men’s rights only applies to men you like.
One of the comments there compared man boobz to jewwatch.com but after reading only a little of it I think you could actually make a fairly good mra site (if good is a term that can be used to describe one) just by replacing jew and zionist with women and feminist. For example
” An Oasis of News for Americans Who Presently Endure the Hateful Censorship of Zionist Occupation”
Becomes
“An Oasis of News for Men Who Presently Endure the Hateful Censorship of Feminist Occupation”
And now r/menrights gets in on the fun!

Apparently they are very concerned about my weight.
I am sure it is just because they want you to live a long and happy life.
I loled. Self-reflection, u haz none.
Anyway, I didn’t know that about you placing women on pedestals, David! Did you start to deal with that terrible weight problem these people seem so intimately aware of? It must be great exercise.
Ugh, and you’re OLD, David. I suspect that all MRAs have the good manners to never age.
Or if they did somehow age for some reason, I know MRAs must at least have the self-awareness to understand that no one wants to have sex with them, and be fine with that.
I like how all their criticisms of David are misandrist. He’s ugly! He’s a creep! He probably only wants to talk to young women so he can sleep with them (which is terrible)!
I thought these were all things MRAs wanted no one to say about any man ever?
I suppose the MRM has always been about “rights for a very select subset of men” advocacy.
