So over on MGTOWforums, the regulars are pondering the age-old question – should these committed women-avoiders deal with their continued desire to stick their penises in the women they’re allegedly avoiding by resorting to prostitutes?
In the midst of a lively discussion on the advantages of “going pro” over trying to pick up a “bar hog,” one regular by the nom de internet Xtc sets forth some thoughts that, for a moment at least, seem to transcend the usual MGTOW crudity and bitterness.
“I don’t think it’s really about sex,” he writes. “I think what a lot of people are looking for is love, respect, and intimacy – which you can’t buy.”
Why, that almost seems like an insight!
Alas, in his very next sentence he spoils the moment by returning to the standard MGTOW narrative of female perfidy:
I think what put me off women altogether was the realisation that you’ll NEVER get [love, respect, and intimacy] for real. It’s sad and sobering, but that’s the way it is.
Thinking that the attention of women validates you as a person collapses once you realise they are attracted to the worst qualities in the worst men.
Thinking that the attention of women equals affection, intimacy, or love – collapses once you realise they will leave you in a second if they sense any weakness or if a BBD [bigger better deal] comes along. Then you’ll realise that the meter was running all the time, whether this was clear at the time or not.
Women are like a bitter medicine that you force yourself to swallow because you believe it is doing you good. Once you realise it’s a quack remedy, and the whole thing is a scam, you’re free to spit it out and never partake again.
That leaves you with sex alone, which is really rather easy to come by.
If women really and truly are “attracted to the worst qualities of the worst men,” why aren’t they lining up at these dudes’ front doors?
Awww … ::blushes::
….and heidihi for an awesome recipe!
I think you deserve one too, Shiraz, for noting he’d Friend-zoned us, which really was the premise upon which all my subsequent jokes were made. 🙂 Hellkell also made almost every set up for me.
GROUP HUG (BITTERLY)
BITTER HUGS TO ALL OF YOU.
Internets for everyone!
But seriously, what the hell was Bob trying to do, get material for his site? We gave some snark, but lots of people were actually just talking to him, advising therapy and whatever. And in the end, when we told him to go away, well, that was just deserving. I wonder what the sad sack was expecting?
Thanks, heidihi. *fist bump*
Cat Deserted By Troll For No Reason At All
i spend way too much time on Facebook guise i keep looking for the like buttons on all these comments. <3 the grumpeh kitteh, Kittehs'. 🙂 *terrorist fist bump* back at you Shiraz 🙂
Shiraz, if Bob was trying to get proof that feminists were big meanie pants, he failed spectacularly.
Yeah, a “Like” button would be awesome, but throw the trolls into a tizzy.
@Hellkell
Yep. Maybe that explained the long long visit. He kept waiting for a key phrase MRAs dream feminists say, like “men are dogs,” or whatever.
@hellkell – a feminist only has to say “Hi, nice day, isn’t it?” to an MRA to qualify as a big meanie pants. He’ll find plenty to say how horrid and cruel we were to him.
Kittehs: it reminds me of one of my British friends’ summary of The East Enders:
“Good morning.”
“IS IT??!??”
Fine, Kitteh, but he gave us comedic GOLD.
Help me list them all…I’ll put “physically accepted” out there ’cause that was my fav. What about everyone else? List a Bob-ism.
“time theft”
I think it was Thinker who said he runs mgtow.com?
Great, hellkell! Keep going everyone!
I have a confession to make. I didn’t read most of what Bob wrote. I only read y’alls responses to him. *hangs head*
Seriously, what do you think he hoped to get out of all those words he wrote? Did he think he was going to explain something to us, enlighten us? Did he think if he just barfed thousands of words at us, we’d just accept them and say, “Oh, OK. I guess women do suck.”
“Did she have to deal with me putting on a full-court press trying to win her back? No, she did not. I let her go.”
Asking someone how they feel = being pedantic
And it’s not a catch-phrase but it is a gem:
“It’s been pretty eye-opening to say the least. I have a low opinion of MRAs because they have let their bitterness and hatred infect their psyches and they’ve descended into misogyny, but at least they have mastered basic reading comprehension. They can counter your actual argument instead of what they want to argue.”
This from the man who runs mgtow.com.
Oh Bob… I’m disappointed in you. What was it? The need to feel clever? Perhaps you thought there wasn’t a feminist or mangina in the world who would be able to figure out who you really were?
Was it that you thought you were The One, The Neo of The Movement: who would be able to takedown the feminists at their own game with the brilliance of your logic.
Instead it comes to this, just another liar, with a shabby tale of how he bearded the lions in their den and came away having shown them to be the horrors that they are; sympathetic, and willing to help a man in pain. Tougher love than he wanted, but still an honest effort.
And you had to shit on it with the dishonesty, the falseness of heart; You knew from the beginning that you couldn’t be what we needed, and yet you pretended you could.
How cruel, how base; how false; how like the caricature of women you pretended to be suffering from.
How fucking typical.
I loved how he was on about everything really but “implicit understandings” might have been my favorite. And how he was all saying that women have to accept some-to-all of the blame for ‘male subcultures.’
Oh and the rapture thing, where i was like ‘should you not have asked her what she meant about the rapture” and he was like “yeah that’s on me i should have asked next time i will.”
And marry by 27/only marry for True Love/never leave a man ever without submitting a dissertation as to why. In triplicate.
