Video Tuesday: PBS on Reddit’s sexism, and a dramatic reading of “SCENTED F*CKING CANDLES.”

Ah, vox day has been covered here before: http://manboobz.com/?s=vox+day

I ain’t reading that unless it’s filtered through this site

Thanks for the kitties/froggies.

I want to hear him croak out some “negs” — a really good alpha doesn’t need to use force to get the gina tingles. [I can’t believe I just typed the words ‘gina tingles.’]

UGH VOX DAY

He is probably the one blogger that makes me seething mad. I don’t even have anything of substance to add here. He is pretty much all of the right-wing muck congealed into a single stain on the internet.

Browsing through his latest posts, I see that apart from that winner of a post he’s also an anti-vaxxer. He developed a crackpot theory that vaccines are responsible for SIDS deaths since he eyeballed some charts and noticed the peak for both fatal vaccine reactions and amount of SIDS deaths occur at the same time.

“Did a poll amongst the pampered people reveal they find their lives are so much more difficult?”

Did you even understand what I said? No, of course not, since you’re a dumbfuck with the reading comprehension skills of a cat turd.

So societies where women get acid thrown in their faces have stable low crime homogeneous and prosperous societies? A million % fail there. I am loath to quote it directly but I hadn’t been introduced to Vox Day before. Aside from like, North Korea (Utopia obviously!) I can’t think of many truly homogeneous societies and all attempts to create one turn out ummm…. not good (North Korea!). You know, to poke a hole in one of the MANY horrible things wrong with that article.

It is certainly a concentrated form of everything wrong on the internet though isn’t it?

Female privilege in action:

CNN found the perfect photo, too.

But Shaenon there are some poor white dudes too so it balances out doncha know!

If you want to feel better about Vox, look up some of the fantasy books he wrote under his real name. Wait, first read his stuff about how women can’t write fantasy and scifi, then get his books. I am told they are an amazing amount of awful. I couldn’t verify because only one library in the state of Ohio would admit to having any of them, and they weren’t part of the state library book exchange program.

Vox has many, many problems, and it’s really better to just ignore him.

Why do so many MRAs think women don’t actually do any work? Just because a few privileged women don’t have to, this is no way representative of the majority. Somehow they think ALL women go to college, get a silly degree, then go to work in the guvment bureaucracy wearing silky drawers in an air conditioned office. Very few women do this!!! There are waitresses (I’ve been one, don’t tell me it’s easy), maids, factory workers. They do soul crushingly mundane and repetitive tasks for low pay. Yet somehow since they aren’t drilling for oil or paving the surface if the sun it isn’t “real” work.

There are poor men in this country living difficult lives, but it’s because they’re poor, not because of the wimmins. And there are lots of poor women, too, and if you think they’re are the beneficiaries of some feminist conspiracy, you’re a dipshit. Really I have to wonder if these MRAs ever leave their homes. Or are poor women and minorities just invisible to them?

Yeah, I get this on youtube videos. When I made an anti-MRA one I got hundreds of downvotes and negative comments and they all took that as proof that they were right and I was wrong.

David could fill a separate blog solely from MRA Youtube comments. I saw some GWW video where the top comment was something (in all caps of course, to make his point even stronger) about how all women are motivated to start relatonships out of greed. Something like 10 other MRAs had approved of that one.

I remember that I’ve been turned down by guys before, and that was after I had decided to “lose the weight” and became an insanely over-exercising, dieting freak (I went down to a size 8 due to my hips but had a perfect hourglass and could wear a bikini so yeah, I thought I finally had the “perfect” body).

First guy I went after- I asked him out casually to a movie and he called me on the phone, rejected me, and then NEVER SPOKE TO ME FOR THE REST OF HIGH SCHOOL. This was actually pretty awkward because we hung out in the same circle of friends and he would literally treat me like I didn’t exist.

Second guy- we dated for a while and then he dumped me on the first day after summer vacation ended saying he wasn’t “ready for a relationship” and proceeded to date at least three of my friends.

Third guy- was interested in me but wanted to play the field. I wasn’t into that, even though he was adorable, so I parted ways with him.

I am a reasonably attractive lady, and yet I’ve rarely ever been asked out by guys and my personality is as such that I hate waiting around for some guy to approach me (although in college, all sorts of guys who I wasn’t interested in seemed crazily drawn to me and luckily I was in a relationship so they never felt all crushed or anything), so I tend to be the one who does the asking. This got me into a lot of interesting situations- I always asked out the interesting guy with interesting ideas, and yet sometimes it *gasp* backfired on me!!

Getting your heart trodden on isn’t a gendered occurrence, but it does occur to me that maybe hetero cis white males are so used to having next to zero roadblocks in their way in the average day that any basic rejection is like a resounding thunderclap of DOOOOOM when they experience it? I can’t, for the life of me, think as to why else they would think this way.

I am guessing they never got chased by a homeless guy with a shovel while trying to take a short walk around the block. I am guessing that these guys don’t have creepy guys in cars pull up next to them on the street and drive slowly while they roll down the window and make lewd comments. Or have someone throw a slurpee out the window at you and shout “FAT COW” while you’re walking home in a sweatshirt after jogging. Or be doing a nature hike and have some young guys behind you who you don’t know who think it is HI-LARIOUS to talk loudly about how easy it would be to rape you because “no one would hear it happening.” Or the simple fact that most men have higher muscle mass and bone density than most women.

So MRAs, do you think you’re up to being smaller, weaker and more of a target? Please, do switch lives with me just to see what it is like.

And yes, when I imagine MRAs talking, I imagine that they sound just like Plankton.

@ragefromthebasement- Remember, you can only ride in the “care” pool if you actually “care” about men’s rights! XD
