So we learned the other day from that Man Going His Own Way that male violence was, like, totally the fault of evil sexy ladies. Now, from this Men’s Rights Redditor, we learn that homophobia — or at least homophobia directed at gay men — is all the fault of straight women and their desire for macho dudes. Because straight men don’t ever express any sort of hostility towards gay or effeminate men — it’s just those darn ladies!
But, huh, what about all those straight dudes who are always calling other dudes “gay” and, you know, that other word that starts with an “f?”
Well, apparently that’s just playful joshing. No harm, no foul! If anything, it shows how wonderfully tolerant of gayness these guys are. I mean, come on, if you can’t see this, you must be stupid, or something. Or so says this other Men’s Rights Redditor:
They’re just having a little fun. You’re not against fun, are you?
Thanks to the AgainstMen’sRights subreddit for pointing me to these quotes.
LBT, how dare you dehumanize men by making them into metaphorical sausages. 😀
Ah yes, the ol’ women only sit around and eat bon bons all day, claim. They are all totes lying about having jobs and being expected to do the majority of the housework and obvs housework and family care is super easy and not time consuming at all because, well, I mean, women can do it, amiright?
The dominant culture in which there still tend to be few women in key roles in movies considered “serious” or action movies? The dominant culture in which panels of male-only politicians get to decide what all women should do with their bodies? The dominant culture in which it’s totes cool for newscasters to take away women’s right to vote? The dominant culture in which it’s considered common knowledge that women just aren’t funny?
To be clear, I’m not actually looking for answers, since it’s obvious you’re so full of shit you probably have a Pig Pen type cloud around you, I’m just enjoying watching you continue to dig yourself into a hole of stupid.
Really? How interesting.
(For those who don’t want to click through, Sparky’s assertion is, naturally, false.)
@LBT
Are you implying that men can actually want to watch women, even if they don’t want to bone them? MIsandry!
BTW: that bit above there should be “in which it’s totes cool for newscasters to call for the government to take away women’s right to vote” just in case our little troll decides to take my typo as proof that we feminists are delusional and making shit up.
Guy Fedora: Incorrect. Women spend more money than men which means that print media has to be femocentric to get the advertising.
How does this connect? Women read more magazines because they have so much free time? I thought they were out spending money?
What, one wonders, do they spend it on? Groceries? Cleaning supplies? Cruises to Aruba with their Alpha Thugboys?
Enlighten us.
MaudeLL: I do find that argument slightly weird, because I think if men did most of the shopping, MRAs would cite it as oppressive too.
Nailed it in one.
Women do “spend” more, but the data shows it’s on things like groceries, and clothes for kids/men, as well as those bon-bons and vacation trips to day spas.
RE: cloudiah
I’m sure my husband would have something appropriate to say about that.
RE: Marie
Is it MY fault I’m not interested in boning most people? I actually find it quite tiring having my presumed boning-tastes shoved in my face all the time. (You’re a MAN! That means you like BIG BOOBS! And Freudian guns! And BOOOOOBS!)
Queue one of our two lying trolls: It is clear that feminists all want to grind men up into sausages.
“Women also have more free time to consume media.”
But you don’t, that’s why you’re here?
“This is why men create the manosphere. To create an alternative to the dominant culture.”
**Whistles theme to The Twilight Zone**
No, seriously folks:
“[I]n narrative film when looking at women directors over the last decade, only 41 women have made films in the top 100 released films every year across the decade, compared to 625 men. There are 15.24 male directors for each 1 female director. So that means many men make multiple films and few women make any films.”
— from a study conducted by researchers at the Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism at the University of Southern California, the study assessed 11,197 directors, writers, producers, cinematographers, and editors whose movies screened in Sundance from 2002-2012.
@LBT
But, it’s a fest!!!! You can’t hate a fest!!
oops, ^^ “Cue” ^^
RE: Shadow
Fehh. Wurstfest was so much more entertaining. Also, this is relevant. (And NSFW)
I’m still trying to figure out how someone can be subhuman and privileged at the same time.
RE: tedthefed
Aliens.
(Also, I’m sorry, but I imagine you to be Ted Kord every time you post.)
“This is why men create the manosphere. To create an alternative to the dominant culture.”
What if you could open a portal to a parallel universe? What if you could slide into a thousand different worlds? and what if you can’t find your way home? 🙁
Shorter BlackHead: Facts are MISANDRY. My genralizations are TRUTH.
Ah, the MRA way. All truths come straight from assfax.
That’s just because women prefer to sit on their asses all day and eat bon bons while men go out and slay mammoths and do the hard work of directing and producing movies. Meanwhile women consume that media because men have no time to while they are slaying mammoths directing said movies.
So the manosphere is Fox News, basically.
Given that Boring Fedora’s admitted that he’s just here to troll, and he constantly lies and makes shit up, I now resume my policy of responding to his posts with random lyrics from 80’s pop songs.
So needless to say
I’m odds and ends
But that’s me stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is OK
Say after me
It’s no better to be safe than sorry

@ ostara321
Actually you are broadly correct. Men have less time for daytime TV and so on because of the volume of work that we do.
Aaaaaah I thought the manboobz gremlins ate my post so I posted again! Oh well, you can never get enough 80’s pop songs.
Becausescience ninjaed me!
His quote (assuming fed-fed is a man) actually reminded me of the reason that guy, Dean Chambers I think, was ‘unskewing’ polls last fall. Don’t like reality? Create your own facts in a nuclear bunker!
