Regular readers of this blog, for better or worse, know one thing that makes “Men’s Human Rights Activist” Paul Elam’s penis happy: The prospect of harassing feminists. He is, after all, the man who wrote of one feminist that “that the idea of fucking your shit up gives me an erection.”
Now Mr. Elam has given us a rather more complete account of what it is that pleases his penis. I’m not sure there was any great demand for this information, but he has chosen to release it, and so here we are.
In a post with the tasteful title “on tits, ass and fucktards,” Elam informs the world that he is in fact a fan of the first two items in this list – that is, tits and ass. He is also, he goes on to explain, a lover of
Sorry, I have to stop for a moment to remind you that you are about to read about things that give Paul Elam — yes THAT Paul Elam — a boner.
I will not think any less of you if you stop reading right here.
If you are ready and willing to continue, here we go:
I like well-formed thighs that lead up to the promise land, and smooth knees above shapely calves. Of course, all that combined with a woman’s pretty face is a crowning glory; full lips that promise supple kisses and great blow jobs, clear eyes and unblemished skin. All this combines to make a woman utterly fuckable, and visually that is what I like most of all. I like to look at women that are little fuckmuffins.
Yes, he actually wrote all that, attached his name to it, and posted it for other people to see.
But as much as Elam likes to look at “little fuckmuffins” he does not actually seem to like most of them very much.
After roughly 150 words devoted mostly to cataloguing his favorite female body parts, Elam evidently runs out of nice things to say about women, and so he returns again to his favorite pastime, devoting the bulk of the post to a rant explaining how much he hates “feminist fucktards,” traditionalist women, and women with Facebook accounts.
While happy enough with “fuckmuffins [who] are sexually liberated and adventurous” and who “like to please and be pleased,” Elam informs the world that he feels no such love for all those awful “fuckmuffins” who “liv[e] life with prudish sticks up their asses made from the same wood that forms the chips on their shoulders.”
He’s also mighty pissed at all those who aren’t interested in hearing him expound at length on what his penis likes.
Of the now almost endless list of things that have grown annoyingly stupid and sanctimonious about feminism is the Victorianesque shaming of my sexual programming as a man. Even with the so called “sex positive” feminists, the most hypocritical assholes of them all, the only positive sexuality they embrace is that of women. To them, male sexuality, in all its glory, is something to be buried, controlled and allowed to surface only when it serves the sexual needs of some narcissistic, horny, self-absorbed little “sex positive” princess.
Unfortunately, more traditional-minded women aren’t much interested in hearing about his penis either. And for some reason they, like feminists, think that there might be some sort of connection between men and rape.
Who are those traditionalists? You will know them by their obsequious silence while feminists shame men for committing the scurrilous act of looking at women sexually. Or better yet, as they join in with their “men can stop rape” bedfellows to twist and distort the natural inclinations of young men with Puritan sexual guilt that marches in lockstep with the feminist hatred of male sexuality.
Elam stops for a moment to reassure his readers that despite all that stuff about “well-formed thighs” and blow-job lips he prefers Good Women to mere “fuckmuffins.”
Now, all that being said, is woman-as-fuckmuffin all I care about? Hardly. As a matter of fact, I would throw fuckmuffin to the curb faster than you can say “patriarchy” to spend time with a woman of good character and intelligence. I have learned in life that my dick has a healthy agenda for humanity, but not necessarily for me. So as my values have matured, so has my taste in women.
Heck, it turns out he actually sort of hates “fuckmuffin.” After all, he tells us,
fuckmuffin … is prone to act indignant when she feels sexualized (by the wrong guy). She can become so angry at being “objectified” that you can see her tits shake right through that tight sweater with the neckline that plunges to the vicinity of her toes.
And then he compares her to a bug:
Time and experience will lead [men] to understand that fuckmuffin should be regarded with same respect as you would afford a stinging insect.
Basically, he explains, the only problem with lustful young men who ogle women is that they haven’t learned to hate women enough quite yet. And so women shouldn’t complain when young guys stare at them. Or when they don’t. As far as I can figure it, he thinks women shouldn’t ever complain about anything.
Leave [young men] the fuck alone. There is nothing wrong with them. Nothing needs to be fixed. If you want to help a young man like that, just start encouraging him to connect the dots between fuckmuffin’s propensity to take her own picture and post it to Facebook four times a day and her ultimate tendency to make him miserable. Eventually he will get the connection. And if he doesn’t, maybe that makes him happy. Either way, it is none of your fucking business.
And so ends what’s probably the strangest work of erotica I think I’ve ever read.
…”that tight sweater with the neckline that plunges to the vicinity of her toes.”
That’s not a sweater, Paul. That’s a really weird coat, or something.
I suspect that any MRA reading this will conclude that we’re attacking Elam for having (straight) male sexuality. But that’s not what’s going on. He likes women’s bodies, or at elast the bodies of some women? Not exactly a revelation — generally speaking, straight men with conventional tastes tend to like women’s bodies, or at least the bodies of some women.That’s kind of how it works.
What’s creepy about Elam’s “appreciation” of female bodies is not only his need to annouce it to the world in a non-sexual context (most men don’t walk up to people and announce “I like boobies” even if they do) but the way in which his “appreciation” gets cringingly explicit and sexually objectifying — he doesn’t say “I’m a leg man,” he talks about thighs leading up to the “promise land.” (PROTIP: Referring to the vagina as the “promise land” in public, or really, at all: eww.) And then the bit about blow-job lips.
I’m pretty sure that if a 56-year-old woman wrote a similar piece in which she announced how much she liked men’s “vagina-eating mouths” or talked about men’s legs as a conduit to the “promise land” in his pants, the AVFM-ers would be up in arms.
”that tight sweater with the neckline that plunges to the vicinity of her toes.”
I had to read that line twice. I wasn’t too sure if he was talking about a strange top or a woman dropping her sweater in Elam’s vicinity. And I *still* think I’m misreading it.
Graham, I was going to say something about that. Even that famous J Lo dress had a neckline that went only to her waist. A floor-length garment that’s buttoned at the toes seems highly impractical. I think it would probably cause the wearer to trip a lot.
The visual image I’m getting is of someone standing in a fully unzipped sleeping bag and holding the open part around their shoulders.
Haven’t time to read the comments yet, but I’m laughing aloud at the OP. Elam’s little TMI screed just demonstrates what we already know about the MRM: nobody, but nobody, wants anything to do with them. They hate those beautiful female bodies for having an autonomous person inside who gets to make the decisions, and they apply that to all women. They never grasp that it’s more specific the other way around. They’re not hated/despised/ignored for being male: they get all those things through their own efforts, for being who they are, not what they are.
In the old phrase: suffer in yer jocks, Elam.
I read it as a woman who has toes just above her breasts. I am incredibly literal minded sometimes. (Then I wondered if she painted her toenails to match the sweater. I would.)
Steubenville, OH. Torrington, CT.
Fuck you.
Didn’t Pierre once apply to work for Elam? He can’t have been answering that ad. :/
I AM SAFE FOREVER!
Of course a woman just not being shaved from the neck down would probably give pooor Pauly boner-wilt, so that’s easily taken care of. Or being over, what, 25 or so?
I’m thinking hip-waders with the middle cut out of them. Sort of a sock-and-suspender combination.
It may be time for The Great and Powerful Elam to do a little culling on his list of guest posters. The delightful JudgyBitch is a firm believer in slut shaming because “sluts” lower “the price of sex” and JB believes in leveraging one’s sexuality for the highest honor known to women — marriage with a good ($$$$$) provider. Her basic philosophy and this latest bleat of Paul’s are at complete odds with each other.
“I love hot sexy women who love to have hot sexy action with me. But they hafta be smart, nice, and accommodating at ALL TIMES. And they hafta do it when I say so! Forget that third date rule — it’s gonna be the Elam Rule!”
Maybe the world’s longest cardigan? A dressing gown several sizes too small?
I wonder how many fights the MRAs would get into if they ever twigged that a woman having sex with MRA #1 meant she wasn’t having sex with MRA #2. It’s the natural state of manly men to be permanently pissed off at women having sex with any other men ever, so how, in the (admittedly unlikely) event that a woman had sex with any MRA, would the dudebrotherhood ever hold together? It’s no good if she had sex with the other MRAs, that would just make her a slut. All women are magically supposed to have sex with any man who wants them, while simultaneously being a permanent virgin to everyone except that man … however many men are involved.
I wish they’d sit down and think that out, because with any luck their heads would explode.
I should have heeded the trigger warning.
If there is one thing that gets me about Elam and his ilk, is that he describes women and their value to him. Never thinking about what she wants, what her past was like, what her dreams are. Elam keeps going on and on about their beauty and how it is supposed to please him and only him. Apparently there is only one standard of beauty and EVERYONE is supposed to have it. Don’tcha love it? I have seen enough of it in advertising, mainstream film and it spreads *angry fists*
I think part of that is intentional.
I heard forever that Dworkin said all sex is rape. It was on that little list of ‘shit feminists say’ that anti-feminists pass around.
When somebody finally showed me the full passage, for all its denseness it was pretty obvious that she was talking about the way our language around sex clearly is rape language. That the way we talk about it full of problems, normalizing rape and making all sex sound like it.
Sure, confirmation bias, you can get the wrong thing out of that if you try really hard–but I think it’s also pretty clear that they prefer not to read what she actually wrote.
The Dworkin in their heads is more useful for them.
@Kittehs, I think it’s that women are supposed to have sex with the first guy who wants them (or at least the first nice guy, as long as they’ve held out and have avoided the alpha cock carousel), and then remain faithful to him forever. Maybe young widows are granted an exemption (because we all know no one wants the older ones in their world), since it isn’t their fault that their relationship ended.
Funny that he goes on and on about all the (visual) requirements of fuck muffin, and even touches on the fact that the person who is iving in fuck muffins body has negative traits as well. But Elam would totally kick fuckmuffin out of bed for a “good woman”.
Now, if he really wanted me to believe this, wouldn’t he be going on about the characteristics of his ideal “good woman”? I mean, he’s has probably spent more time thinking about the features he wants in a washing machine than he’s given to finding a “good woman”.
We’ll just totally overlook the fact that fuckmuffin might as well be a blow up doll for all the consideration he’s given her beyond appearance. T
So wait, muffin is a compliment and cupcake is an insult? Huh.
*smears head with icing so they won’t want to have sex with me*
Teenage girls: totally into Andrea Dworkin.
Although actually, if my dad were a proud MRA who lectured me about his right to yell “Nice tits!” at the screen while we were watching movies, I’d probably be into radical feminism too.
I take great comfort in knowing that I will never be a *good” woman. I’ve been called a lot of things, including bitch and damn good mother, but never a good woman.
I suppose that my mind will thankfully always bar me from that dubious honor.
I want it on my tombstone. “A no good woman”.
And now you know why the mass of (straight non-feminist) men lead lives of quiet (sexual) desperation. That is until we perfect the Star Trek holodeck and/or Matrix VR and/or Stepford fembots…
I only skimmed Paul’s entry, so the weirdest erotica I’ve ever read is still the passage from Neal Stevenson’s Crytponomicon. I’d say 70% of the weirdness in that is the fact that it’s kind of unrelated to anything else in the book.
I’m trying to think of a witty way to respond to Elam’s post…but his lack of logic is too painful to even comprehend in a mocking manner. So!
