antifeminism crackpottery homophobia misogyny MRA paul elam reddit whaaaaa?

Men’s Rights Redditor on a Men’s Rights critic: “He is getting older and homosexual and … people like these tend to age like milk instead of wine.”

In yet another discussion of Arthur Goldwag’s latest post on the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Hatewatch blog (looking at MRAs bad-mouthing the men who lost their lives protecting their girlfriends in the Aurora shootings), longtime Men’s Rights Redditor Liverotto offers this intriguing take on what he sees as Goldwag’s motivations for criticizing the Men’s Rights movement:

Yeah, a dude actually wrote that, and a couple of people actually upvoted it.

I’m trying to understand the logic: Goldwag is growing older and more homosexual (do men usually become gay as they age?). But gay men age badly, which makes them mad at their “suitors.” So therefore Goldwag has come to hate the (mostly straight) men of the Men’s Rights movement?

Another highlight of the discussion: The r/mensrights regular who thinks I’m Paul Elam. No, really.

I’m not obsessed. Sorry for posting.

Also, you’re reminding me of The Shadow War of the Night Dragons: Book One: The Dead City: Prologue

Aworldanonymous, he’s the returning sockpuppet of Schmen’s Blights Craptivist Blewtenant, I can’t type it out or it’ll get caught in the mod filter. Go back to April or so of last year, and you’ll see.

What Sharculese said re:BB.

On that note: does anyone here know how terminal-length hairs work? If you cut one, does it start growing again? And how does the body sense this?

Autogynephilia isn’t a thing, and you should hear the invective I did on League of Legends towards people who play female champions.

Is it wicked for male-identifying people to play female characters? How do you know that they were male-identifying? Any victim of your invective could say, “I identify as a woman,” and you’d have to accept her as a woman or else be guilty of transphobia and identity policing. Also, would Ozy deserve invective if zie played a female character?

Also, if playing a female character isn’t an autogynephile thing, then why is it so deserving of invective? Also, for a female player to play a male character may not be autoandrophilic, because male characters are the default, but if it’s a BL/yaoi game, surely it is.

I get ads for the course I’m taking at the university I attend here every now and then, which is kinda creepy.

I’m pretty sure google localizes ads based on data it gathers about your searching habits, location, and stuff, don’t worry, nobody else can see it.

I know that; I’m just creeped out by how good it is.

but given the sordid history of “autogynephilia” we might want to choose a new word for it.

Yeah, I was initially confused as to how the word could apply in that context, then started seeing some of the other ways it’s used, and just cut to the chase.

They were actually semi-connected; “Autogynophilia isn’t a thing the way you seem to mean it, and if you think ‘all dudes want to play chun li’, you should probably deal with more dudes; see, for instance, League Of Legends invective at people playing female champions”, is the less collapsed version.

You won’t need to wait for David, I’ll be leaving now.

I’m just going to go ahead and disqualify all flounces that unflounce before I score them.

@Sharculese:

Blogs generally don’t get to determine the contents of the ads. Imagine my frustration at seeing so many “Was he REALLY the son of God”-type ads on freethoughtblogs.

Oh, I get it. You heard the invective. You didn’t do it.

Oh! I was confused about why you didn’t like men playing female LoL champions, but assumed that there was some reasonable explanation. It turns out the reasonable explanation is “Ozy can’t read.” >.>

Kirby: Those ads always make me happy! Horrible religious people* paying for *literally* the most useless ads of all time.

*To be distinguished from nice religious people, most of whom are not inclined to have Google ads advertising their religion.

I’m getting the Clinton ads too, so it may just currently be showing those to everyone in the US. (The Aussies aren’t seeing them, right?)

Makes a nice change from all the other sites with ads that keep offering me coupons to buy shampoo, when I just bought a ton and don’t need any more for a while.
