Men’s Rights Quote of the Day: “Your typical woman would be fine making most men live in cages.”

If women ran the world, apparently
If women ran the world, apparently

Over in the Men’s Rights subreddit, a fella called EatsTinyBaldBabies offers this, er, insight:

It became quite clear to me some time ago that your typical woman would be fine making most men live in cages under 24/78 supervision if it meant they could feel just slightly safer about their lives. This is why feminists spend so much time lying to make them afraid.

Last I checked, he had gotten 18 upvotes for this BRAVE comment.

H/T to DancingMidgets in the AgainstMen’sRights subreddit for finding this little gem.

Bad writing gives me a headache:

“It became quite clear to me some time ago that your typical woman would be fine making most men live in cages under 24/78,”

Like every other poster here, I find myself shrugging and asking…what the fuck is 24/78 supposed to mean?

“… supervision if it meant they could feel just slightly safer about their lives. This is why feminists spend so much time lying to make them afraid.”

Who is “them”? Other women? Be clear, asshole. To feel safe is a ridiculous feminist concern? Is that what you’re saying? You jump to the conclusion that such a desire requires a need to put men in cages. It’s all you, because I can’t find a citation from an actual feminist promoting legislation on caging men because they’re men. In short, what do you have against men? If you’re projecting — based on your own ugly feeling about women, please stop. If you’re worried that someone might put you in a cage based on your own mindest, take responsibility and stop dragging all dudes down with you.

I always find it interesting when MRAs tell feminists what they really want. I don’t recall any of my feminist cohorts suggesting such a plan………

I’m seconding Amanda. I’d like guys to leave me alone.

Update on my friends stalker: He is hanging around where I live and we keep “accidentally” bumping into one another. Coffee shops, grocery stores, library and post office. Due to the fact that both his work and home are on the west side of town and I live all the way on the east side this is disconcerting.

The 24/78 I think is suppossed to mean 24 hours a day 78 days a week.

Some of you might say that a week has 168 hours, not 78. This is not because he forgot to hit the 1 and pressed 7 instead of 6 and was too lazy to correct his post. It is because MATH IS MISANDRY!

And I hope you won’t lock me up forever, I know how to sit, lay down, and roll over and I don’t shed much.

Cloudiah, that parrot is so cute. I wish my parrot was that sweet! Unfortunately, she’s rather, uhm, volatile (probably cuz she’s a feminist).

Perhaps he’s referring to the black male population of the united states.

Rich elite white feminists actively work to cage poor black men.

“Eaten by the guinea pig”?

Lies, lies! They were eaten by Poutine wearing a guinea-pig suit.

Nope, no flowers at all! So, the cheese shop…I prefer it that way, being unable to actually eat cheese and all (pizza I can do, because it’s worth it damnit! But yeah, I am not a cheese person [nor am I made of cheese, you smart asses 🙂 ])

“He’s so cute! Peeeeek-a-boo!”

“What are ya doin’?”

I like how he scrunches his eyes every time he talks.

So, um, men in cages, that’s the ultimate feminist plan?

I just… I don’t… but the thing is…

I mean, I get it, he thinks I’m delusional and participating in my own oppression, yada yada, I think pretty much the same of him (it’s not a delusion, it’s motivated reasoning and some fairly common cognitive biases–but boy is he ever participating in his own oppression), so he thinks I’m just accidentally going to cage men.

But, really, there are a lot of male feminists, male feminist allies… what kind of mental loop-de-loops are required to think men want to cage themselves?

(crickets)

Ah, this guy.

I’d assume this idiot has seen people saying (to victim-blamers)that, if women shouldn’t go out after dark for fear of men raping them, why isn’t it the men who have the curfew?

It’s funny how they like to take everything absolutely literally at face value, isn’t it?
They set up this fantasy world where women should be terrified at every hour of the day – and which is entirely beyond fixing – in order to assert that it should be entirely on women to protect themselves. (Because they only recognise male rape victims when it’s useful to criticise people who are talking about women protecting themselves from rapists) Then they act like you actually want to turn all men into eunuchs when you suggest that it would be a handy way of solving the problem in that particular world. We don’t live in the world, guys. All we need to do for the majority of the problem is educate people. (No, not re-educate in camps, just educate, like when you take a course in how to use the language of rationality without actually getting any logic on yourselves.)

That ringneck parrot is so adorable. I’ve never considered a bird as a pet before, partly because I see no point of keeping a bird that always stays in a cage (on topic! woo!). But I’ve been reading a lot about parrots lately and they are just so beautiful. And now I’m wondering if it’s possible when I already have cats…. anyone know much about birds?

So, this salmonella outbreak is sounding really bad. There are several antibiotic resistant strains, and 42% of those sickened have had to be hospitalized. This is the second salmonella outbreak this year by this company, who is not recalling any of their products. So be safe. And don’t buy Foster Farms products.

What do you call it when someone claims to be standing up for a cause, but they don’t understand it?

More ETBB highlights.

On shipwrecks:

If I was on a ship that was going down, and some crewmen tried to enforce a ‘women and children first’ policy, that would be one dead crewman.

Wow, there is one frank person! As always suspected, the goal is not to help men, but to harm women. So he’d rather kill a man than help a woman or child. Nice to see him admit that…

Well, the thing is? Yes, feminism hasn’t been good about intersectionality.

But have I mentioned that the MRM is full of outlandish racism?

(no, seriously, a LOT)

So, no, nope, not buying it for a second.
