Today, let’s pay a little visit to the Men’s Rights subreddit, where a FeMRA calling herself Super_Delicious is expressing her gratitude for the warm welcome she has received from the Men’s Rights movement. And then along comes a dude called Eryemil, who’s evidently not pleased with Super_Delicious’ not-fanatical-enough stance on circumcision.
Argumentum ad Dog Dickum. That’s a new one.
The debate continues on like this for some time, if you can’t get enough of this brilliant intellectual interchange.
I found this exchange through a post on the AgainstMensRights subreddit, a much more welcoming place, provided you’re not a Men’s Rights asshole.
I hope that changes soon, too. Let the trauma stick crumble away into dust.
Thankfully, with disability, I might be able to just REST for a bit. Which would be wonderful! Just work on my art and my mind and bang my husband like a gong for a while without any impending crises!
There seems to be evidence that stammering is physical in origin, but I think psychological issues affect it – like adults singling out a child’s natural stammering and reinforcing it, whether through good intentions or bad. Louis’s was bad all his earthly life, a real problem for someone in his job, but the psychological part shows in that when he was relaxed with a few friends, he could speak more easily.
I’m doubly gratified to think that 1) there was some extreme pain he didn’t experience, and 2) creepy Freudian creepster with humour and empathy bypass got yet more stuff wrong.
::blows raspberry at Freudian who can’t fathom little boys making arse jokes::
“bang my husband like a gong”
REST he calls it! 😛
I tend to just assume that everything some Freudian says is wrong. Especially the more I learn about Freud…
Same here.
I mean, what sort of nincompoop reads a description of a six-year-old seeing a rabbit with some grass stuck on its butt and saying “It eats through its arse!” without picturing the kid laughing? Or then goes on to do a Terribly Serious analysis of how the child doesn’t know the difference between anus and mouth? This being a description of a child from four centuries ago, at that.
Freudians should be let loose on MRAs and kept away from everyone else, I swear.
That would be the most hilarious debate ever. Ever.
Can you imagine a Freudian getting hold of Christopher in Oregon? There wouldn’t be enough popcorn in the world.
RE: Kittehs
REST he calls it! 😛
Well, I always find myself quite relaxed and refreshed afterward! And it’s CERTAINLY restful, compared to recent events!
LOL true – it’s a good way to get some quality sleep!

ō.Ó?
Dude, he’s six, he thinks butts are funny. Welcome to dealing with kids 101. Hint: minor funnies — burp, major funnies — piss, poop, butt, fart. The more serious the adult, the funnier it is, so congrats, Fruedians must be epic fun for kids to fart at!
Also, just, the past year, we’ve been more mutual survivors than actual partners in our relationship. Mac’s only in the past month started to revive and front and cook again, so we’re trying to rebuild our relationship. Not that it was ever broken or anything, but there’s only so much energy you can spare when you’re busy existing.
Oh yeah, broke the page with a fart joke!
Comment not resembling “FIRST!!” — LBT, two weeks, NYC? Planning that was why I was hoping to catch you Friday or Saturday, since I’m back in CT now (it’s sorta moot, pecunium will equip me with a key if we need to let ourselves in). I made it from Grand Central to his place without getting lost, so I’m guessing we can manage it if we can find each other…the way back…well I almost ended up in Times Square at 1 on a Sunday. As it was I was dodging tourists left and right (I mean seriously people, please pay an iota of attention where you are going, yes I realize it’s a big building but people are trying to get from here to there without you backing up suddenly!)
Breaking the page with a fart joke = win!
Seconding everything about kids and fart/wee/poo jokes, and anything butt related, really. Plus, it was an age when adults were pretty damn open about fart/wee/poo jokes, too. Prudish they were not at Henri’s court.
Oh jeez I just remembered Louis’s youngest and the great fart contest he had with his wife and son.
Heheheh …
RE: Argenti
Ah, yes! Sorry about that, my schedule’s been zany lately. Still planning to arrive on the 3rd, meeting up with you on the 4th. (Though my housing just fucking collapsed at the last minute — yes, again, I know — so the sooner I can get out of this town the better.) I will likely have to arrive at NYC early, since I’ll need a ride from my buddy who works.
Ah ok, in that case we should take this to email, as I was thinking we’d met in manhattan and head to pecunium’s together since I’ve been there (and got there on my own even!)
LBT, understood, thank you.
