Pompous Misogyny on Parade, Part Eleventy Million Billion

But of course! She's a she.
But of course! She’s a she.

Most misogynists, it would seem, are loath to admit that they’re misogynists. “How can you say I hate women?” they’ll ask. “After all, I love my sister. She’s not like the rest of those whores.” Or, “I just hate Western Women.” Or whatever fine distinction they like to make to pretend that their hatred of pretty much every woman they ever come across, or imagine in their overheated little brains, is something other than misogyny.

Then there are those who not only admit their misogyny but who are downright proud of it, thinking it’s a sign of their own personal superiority. Today, a pretty good example of Proud Misogyny, taken from the reactionary Christian blog Samson’s Jawbone.

Our intrepid woman-hater starts off by contrasting his brand of misogyny to the peculiar kind of woman-appreciation advocated by the PUA gasbag now known as Heartiste (but still known as Roissy when this post was written):

Roissy is fond of saying that he’s not a “misogynist”; no, learning the unvarnished truth about female psychology has given him a *higher* appreciation for women. Not so for me. Sociosexual philosophy has disillusioned me beyond all reckoning. Peering deep into the psyche of woman has rendered me grievously scornful in feeling and mercilessly unscrupulous in behaviour towards these unholy, ungodly beings. I venture to say that… I hate them. Yes, I hate them! And how could I not?

Did I mention that he has literary pretensions as well? Like a lot of reactionaries, Mr. Jawbone has adopted a melodramatic, vaguely archaic prose style that he evidently feels is the height of literary sophistication, but which sounds a lot more like the monologuing of some cartoon villain.

Oh, the vile criteria by which women judge menfolk! O, abominable, loathsome beings!

Is anyone else reminded of Newman from Seinfeld?

But Mr. Jawbone is just getting started:

A creature so damnably constituted as to admire a man for his “social dominance” – by which is meant his ability to waltz through an absurd series of meaningless, contrived riddles – rather than his work ethic, his self-sacrifice, his affability, his charity, his honesty, his justice – in short, his righteousness and integrity; such a creature deserves to be used and abused like a cheap street harlot – or better yet, a vermin-ridden ass – and discarded appropriately. Nothing more; she merits nothing better.

Here’s an actual vermin-ridden ass, having a nice scratch in the dirt:

donkey-lying-down-1-655x373

Oh, but Mr. Jawbone isn’t done yet:

Words like “honour”, “duty”, “kindness”… those things that define goodness and rightness… all meaningless, meaningless to this wretched, wicked half of the human race. And do women who profess belief in something “higher”; women who should know better, afford any solace? No. Instead they show themselves as fraudulent, fickle hellcats who think good men are “weak”. So alas, I can no longer view the distaff horde with anything besides revulsion and contempt. They perjure themselves by their own words; they are beasts, deserving nothing but callous treatment and damnation; and I can wish nothing upon them but furious hatred, ignominy and a miserable passing.

What a cheery fellow!

I take no joy in penning the above – but I feel clean and spotless as the lamb. What else is to be said for a lot that believes black to be white, up to be down, and good men to be worthless? Poor Ashley Wilkes, and all good men.

Hate to break it to you, dude, but you’re not actually a good man. You’re a pompous dickbag. Oh, sorry, you’re a base, proud, shallow, beggarly, three-suited, hundred-pound, filthy, worsted-stocking knave!

(Thanks to Shakespeare for that last insult, and to Quackers for pointing me to Mr. Jawbone’s post.)

Wow, his nom de plume is apt considering his endless jawing.
He also is no different than misogynists of yore who said the same blatantly inaccurate twiddle twaddle centuries ago.

How true!
I’m reading a book from the late 1800s right now, and the part I’m at is mostly mocking the misogyny of the century (about how a woman can never truly love like a man!)

I’ve noticed something. Whenever an MRA complains about what terrible taste in men women have, and how we are attracted to all the wrong traits and disdain “good” men, what he really means is “How come all the women I want don’t want me?”

I am rather fond of the word “distaff” though. Just because.

Given that “Samson’s jawbone” was the jawbone of an ass, his nym seems appropriate. Not that he’s exactly slaying his enemies, unless “dies laughing” counts.

Wow… absolutely horrible.

These guys don’t realize the reason they don’t love women is the reason WHY they have no success with women.

Their hate is just reflected by at them, further perpetuating this self-fulfilling prophecy.

Just love women, be real, be kind, and you’ll have all the success you could ever want.

That reminds me of all the guys who are like “no, you don’t know what it’s LIKE to have such a HIGH SEX DRIVE”

Different shtick, but same idea: men are super special, feel things stronger* than women, blah blah blah

*These stronger feelings being boners or morals or both.

Worsted stocking knave? I’m a spinner and a knitter. You had better make your socks with worsted spun yarn – if you make them with woolen spun yarn you’re gonna have holes within 3 wearings.

The misogynist I am reading about stated “Love I am firmly convinc’d is the Effect of Prejudice & Imagination; a rational Mind is incapable of it, at least to any great Degree.”

Ah pomposity, keeping jackasses going forever and ever and ever…
