Oh, and may your travel be hassle-free! (I got distracted by the kitty, sorry.)

That is a cute fucking cat. Oh, and I kind of sockpuppeted on the other thread, but I was kind of obvious about who I am so I hope that’s okay. You can toss the comment though, if you want, because I know you have a totally justified No-Sockpuppeting rule. šŸ™‚

Happy travels!

Wait, sockpuppeting for satirical reasons isn’t allowed?

Well, shoot.

(I thought our policy was more “if you sockpuppet and are a troll, your real identity will be revealed and you will be soundly mocked.”)

Well, our satanic overlord David approved my satirical sockpuppet comment so I guess it’s okay. And it’s totally the funniest thing ever. (Not.) šŸ™‚
But hey, one of my cats is getting the cone of shame off tomorrow, so yay!

Did I write here that I read an article about TUR-Teatern and that they’ll do another round of The SCUM Manifesto in autumn? They will! Was in the local paper last month, mostly about how surreal it felt to have police protection, the amount of threats and hate from all around the world, but how being challenging is more or less their aim (TUR stands for Theatre Without Reactionaries, founded in the early 70s) – nice when it finds an audience (and gets people to go out to an otherwise rather sleepy suburb), but artistic progress is more important in general.
Article is in Swedish on page five here:

Also, that cat really needs one of those old timey flying caps and a pair of goggles. šŸ˜›

Hey David- Hope your travels are well and the wind is at your back and all that.

But when you get back, you might want to try and pop over to the Good Men Project. There was some guy named Zek, i think it was, that was saying that he has gotten death threats and castration threats whenever he’s commented on this blog. Now I know that you have a zero tolerant policy for that kind of thing. Maybe you don’t care but I thought you should know. It was a comment on one of Joann Schroders articles. Something about feminism on the GMP.
Obviously I’m not computer literate enough to link. šŸ™

haha, i totally tattled!

Is where Zek J. Events claims to have been threatened by “mainstream feminists” on sites “like” manboobz

I’m glad you responded. I really hate it when people spread misinformation about other people or facts. Still looking for those WMD’s because someone had “some sort of report” or heard “something like that”.
I think I may be a little grumpy from the heat. Lovely kitty.

I’m so sick of MRAs saying this is a hate site. Where have we advocated for taking away men’s right to vote? Where have we discussed lobotomizing men to make them perfect Stepford husbands? Where have we said men deserve to be raped (besides Ruby, and members here ripped her a new one, so she is NOT the consensus)? How about removing the voice boxes of male infants? How about communizing the cock so all men are sexually available to all women all of the time, regardless of their preference?

Women are human beings, not property. Vagina isn’t a resource to be rationed, it isn’t an entitlement to be metered out to all men. And how in the fuck does my stating this translate into misandry? Please, someone tell me!!!!

@Fembot, I’ve been laughing at MRM boobery for more than a decade, and somehow I’ve never caught on to how women thinking they are human beings = men are scum with no rights. MRAs are fluent at the translation though. Fortunately they don’t speak for more than a handful of men in cyberspace (pardon my aged terminology), and most men in the real (non-online) world are unaware of their existence.

@Argenti Aertheri

Hey, Argenti, wazzup? A while back we were discussing the 1 in 5 women being raped in their lifetime in the good old US of A, or as I like to call it the USSA. You were telling me all about the honesty and integrity of the CDC and their oh so professional statistical gathering methods. Anyhoo, here’s one of the questions used in gathering that all too accurate statistic of 1 in 5 women will be raped in their lifetime.

“Were you ever drunk, high, drugged or passed out and someone had sex with you?”

That’s right, this is an all in one question by Big Daddy, the CDC is a Guv agency. Has anyone here ever been drunk or high and had sex? I’m gonna be totally honest with ya’ll, according to the CDC I’m a big time rapist, Or possibly I was raped since I was drunk and/or high at the time myself.

The, “stalking” questionaire seems to follow the same line of questioning. Like have you ever recieved an unwanted email, text, gift, flowers, phone call, ect. Basically, if any man ever sent an email to a woman and she wasn’t interested and didn’t want that email, she was stalked. Yikes! Talk about being unapproachable.

http://www.wgnradio.com/shows/mikemcconnell/wgnam-mike-mcconnell-interview-christina-sommers,0,6929822.mp3file

Here’s a really short interview, if ya dig real hard you might be able to find a copy of the complete questionaire and how it was conducted. So if ya give me a link to a Big daddy site don’t be too insulted if I laugh in your face. I might be laughing a little at your gullibility, but mostly I’m laughing at the total unreliability of the site you’ve provided. Support your government, buy U.S. savings bonds!!!

“Iā€™m so sick of MRAs saying this is a hate site.”
Well it is, feminism is a communist hate movement. It was at it’s concetion and it still is.

“Where have we advocated for taking away menā€™s right to vote?”
Take my damned vote, I’ve never voted anyway. Men just want women and their communist government to stop taking our wealth for womens privileges and entitlements.

“Where have we discussed lobotomizing men to make them perfect Stepford husbands?”
Hell, everyday is a brand new day of womens media entertainment portraying men as filthy devils and women as perfect angels. After all the sacrifice and suffering men have endured for women. How can you let this hatred continue?

” Where have we said men deserve to be raped (besides Ruby, and members here ripped her a new one, so she is NOT the consensus)?”
Do you mean sodomized by a foreign object or raped by a, dare I say it, gay or bi man?

“How about removing the voice boxes of male infants?”
Men’s voices have been systematically silenced in every political, educational and media venue for generations. Courtesy of the ladies.

“How about communizing the cock so all men are sexually available to all women all of the time, regardless of their preference?”
Like men have any reproductive choices.

“Women are human beings, not property.”
Men are disposable mooks, we don’t get the luxury of being called property. Beam me down Scotty, I’m wearing a red shirt.

“Vagina isnā€™t a resource to be rationed, it isnā€™t an entitlement to be metered out to all men.”
Well women sure as hell use it like a resource and get every damn entitlement in the book out of it. And lets be honest here, the be all end all of everyones existance is passing on their genetic marker.

“And how in the fuck does my stating this translate into misandry? Please, someone tell me!!!!”
You belong to a hate movement, do you want love in return?

Quick example. when girls weren’t doing as well as boys in school, money, time, effort was poured into rectifying the problem. Not that it’s reversed all we hear is how boys are lazy, worthless, useless. On and on it goes. Well you feminists are running the educational show along with everything else. Where’s all the education money going this year? Why right into women and STEM classes, there just ain’t enough women in STEM so it’s time to kick the men out.

Women are soo much better at running just everything. It’s all we hear. Well, here’s your chance, your running the show. The election is all about women. You got the vote. Obamacare is all about the ladies. Education is all about you. Charites are yours. We got a quota, quota here and quota, quota there. You’ve got total reproductive rights to mens none. You’ve got the title of primary caretaker ensuring women have complete ownership of children. The media praises women like they’re the second coming.

You gals been runnin the show for some time. So if somethings fuck up, you broke it so you fix it.

Oh, Maru! The funniest thing to me is that all his owner has to do is cut the right holes in the box, and he ends up like that on his own. Hilarious cat.

miliefisathand is calling for Nice Guys to be killed, apparently because they’re not as cool as sociopaths.
