$MONEY$ a woman is always to blame antifeminism crackpottery evil women evo psych fairy tales I'm totally being sarcastic imaginary backwards land ladies against women markymark men who should not ever be with women ever MGTOW misogyny MRA only men pay taxes apparently oppressed men patriarchy playing the victim we hunted the mammoth

Women created the patriarchy in order to enslave men, and other news from Upside-down-and-backwards land

Women: Constanly plotting to enslave men with their tears.
Women: Constantly plotting to enslave men with their phony tears.

Today, some Deep Thoughts about men, women, children, empathy, mini-vans, and patriarchy, from the inimitable Men’s Rights activist and proud misogynist Rob Fedders, whom I found being quoted with approval and even some relish by MGTOWer elder MarkyMark on his little blog today.

Mr. Fedders starts off with a classic misogynist trope: women are like children.

Very few women are capable of empathizing with men. There are about as many women who have the ability to empathize with men as there are children capable of empathizing with adults.

This is what most men fail to grasp, and why they go round and round in circles trying to “explain things” to women.

Women just don’t care. We are here for their purposes, not ours. …

Women will never “care” about men in the same way that men “care” about the wellbeing of women. …

We are designed like this by nature … .

Mr. Fedders offers proof of this evolutionary design by considering a dilemma that preoccupied our ancient ancestors on the African savannah. Namely: who gets the minivan?

You can even see how this works with the way that men and women buy family vehicles. The wife and kids are always put in the best vehicle/mini-van/SUV as possible to “protect them” etc. etc. while the husband drives the run-down piece of crap to work… when the time comes that the husband gets a second vehicle you can usually hear the wife chirping in, “We had to get Joe a new truck… because the last one wasn’t safe and we don’t know what we would do if something happened to him.

That’s the way it has always been and the way it will likely always be.

Apparently, men hunted the mammoth in crappy old pickup trucks.

Fedders returns to his main theme:

Men are a tool to women… a “business.” And to successfully work that business, they must always appear in the needy/attention category. Babies who don’t cry don’t get milk… and women who don’t get attention don’t get taken care of by men. It is an innate feature of humans.

Oh, and in case you were wondering, women have ruled the world from time immemorial.

Women do control society’s values and mores… they lead with what they think is fashionable, and men follow, because by nature we are designed to give women what they want.

And, oh, women invented patriarchy as well.

Women “are” society. What women’s wants are is what society’s want’s are. This is where women are lying when they talk about the dreaded “patriarchy.” The patriarchy only existed because women explicitly approved of it, and endorsed it morally – causing the men to follow suit.

Turns out that patriarchy is basically just a way to make all men slaves to their women:

This is what is happening today too. Most of the anti-feminist battle is not going to be between men and women… it is going to be between women who want a “traditional man” and those who want a collective “government husband.” In both cases, the women are advocating for men to take care of women – with little concern for the man’s wants and needs – one wants a personal slave to serve her & her offspring, while the other wants a slave class to serve women and their offspring in general.

It’s the way human beings are designed. Who cares whether women rule, or if they rule the rulers? The result is the same.

I knew women were sneaky, but I had no idea they were this sneaky.

I’ve had enough of this conversation. It’s getting distressing.

It’s really not about you, but you’ve chosen to make it that way.

Look: accidentally though it was, it included me and many other non-MRAs and it hurt. That’s why I brought it up.

@palmedfire

Y’know, you could switch the genders on this and have MRAs waving it around as “proof” that feminism is evil and all that rot. But of course it’s perfectly sensible this way >.<

Let’s try it:

Very few men are capable of empathizing with women. There are about as many men who have the ability to empathize with women as there are children capable of empathizing with adults.

This is what most women fail to grasp, and why they go round and round in circles trying to “explain things” to men.

Totes misandry and completely different from the other version! The other version is just the truth.

Kittehs’, I’m glad you brought it up. Leaving asshat trolls out of it, I want this to be a place where if someone’s comment causes a regular some distress we can air it out.

I managed to throw my back out today and I’m rocking some painkillers, so my apologies to all if coherence, I don’t haz it.

Oh also, Kristine, up above, left a link to 2 cats playing pat-a-cake. So there’s that.

cloudiah, thanks, and non-painful-internet-hugs for your back! Back pain sucks mightily. Is it lower or upper back? I have mild lower back pain and a backbrace helps with that. Back pain needing painkillers – owwwww. 🙁

cloudiah: sorry about you back, that’s no fun. I tweaked mine earlier this week busting moves I’m apparently too old to bust while cleaning. Dance party fail.

Just muscle spasms, due to me lifting something I probably shouldn’t have tried to lift. I should be fine tomorrow, and tonight it’s muscle relaxers! I do know how to party on Saturday nights.

I hope it’s Soma, that’s the best relaxer, IMO.

If women invented patriarchy, why wouldn’t we have made it a little more advantageous for the lady-folk? Are we just too stupid?

I think he’s saying that patriarchy does benefit us, we just aren’t admitting it. It’s a secret plot.
That doesn’t explain why feminists fight patriarchy however…. confusing

I’m glad your back’s no worse than that, clouidiah.

That pat-a-cake kitty vid was wonderful. 😀

*offers whiskey* can we not fight over something only one person can clarify when said person doesn’t seem to be around?

Spent enough of my “vacation” getting told my feelings where wrong and I’m oversensitive…so yeah, whiskey!

On topic: whut? Women enslave men by buying SUVs? And by wanting the men they love to have safe vehicles? I haz a confused! Also, wtf is this?

“Women do control society’s values and mores… they lead with what they think is fashionable, and men follow, because by nature we are designed to give women what they want.”

It’s women’s fault that men are “designed to give women what they want”? I don’t… Blame nature? I mean, the gender essentialism can kiss mine, but what sense does it make to blame a group for how nature “designed” you to react to that group?

“I’m attracted to people regardless what’s in their pants, nature designed me this way! This is enslavement and I blame everyone for it!” *dies laughing* sorry for the pantsfeelings moment, it’s the only analogy I could think up.

Oh and hope all the injured people are in better shape soon, and get adequate painkillers in the meantime! (Also, whiskey)

Can you tell that my vacation was no such thing? Hence whiskey.

Argenti: we went for lunch to day at our spot, and the sign out front said “Soup of the Day: WHISKEY.”

I approve! Glad someone(s) else think today is a whiskey day.

Oh! Pecunium, or someone, what’s the linguistic difference between whiskey and whisky? (Cuz autocorrect doesn’t like whisky)

Whisky is the Scots way to spell it, whiskey is everyone else.

Soup of the day should be whiskey every day.

I’m imagining a sort of mushroom-flavoured take on Bailey’s Irish Cream now.

I’m not sure if this is a good thing.

Huh, I just found out there is like Gummy Bear vodka, Cotton Candy liqueur and a few dozen other types today. I will be going to get the wee bottles of them at BevMo (an alcohol bonanza store) tomorrow.

Mainly because wee bottles of things are so cute.

Hi all, I was previously cannonball but I made a grievous mistake in my search for a kitty avatar. My happy beer fingers lead to many mistakes. I hang my head in shame. By the by Kittehs’, Baileys with mushroom bruschetta as nibbles is to die for.
