Well, so far this is my favorite response to Jaclyn Friedman’s American Prospect piece on the Men’s Rightsers and that woman-hating problem of theirs. Because what better way to refute charges of misogyny than by declaring derisively that you “can usually spot whether or not a woman wrote a piece by the first few sentences?”
Let’s let rjworks13 explain just why Friedman lacks the intellectual heft to be taken seriously by serious men with credentials — sorry, CREDENTIALS — like him:
Oh boy.
I have to say that very favorite sentence of all in this wondrous bit of HeManWomanHatersplaining is this one, if it can even be called a sentence:
CREDENTIALS: I’m a long-time trained technical and creative writer from male-based military training and put to use over 20 years.
Oy. I can only assume from the evidence of this, er, sentence, that as a technical writer his job is to make sure that instruction manuals are as unreadable as possible. And that his “creative” writing most likely consists of many volumes of self-published Gorean porn.
If you want to compare Jaclyn Friedman’s CREDENTIALS with his, you can always go to her Wikipedia entry. I looked around a bit for rjworks13’s Wikipedia entry, but he doesn’t seem to have one.
rjworks13 was evidently so proud of this bit of writing of his that he deleted it. Luckily, I grabbed a screenshot beforehand. ABS: Always Be Screenshotting.
PS What’s “indifference propaganda?”
Valerian – because not having an SO is DA WORST THING EVAS!11! And if you don’t have one, then you’re not worthy to live, because the world OWES you an SO. 🙄
And this coming from a little creep who (when he was infesting the comments here) was only a few months out of a relationship. Yes, a relationship, as in sexytimes, as in he’s not incel or virgin or desperate or any of the other things he claims to be.
He could have a whole Darwin Award category to himself if he doesn’t ever reproduce.
re/ GGG
I think he’s the one who posted anonymously to my blog accusing me of completely misunderstanding him. I went back and tried to figure out if I had indeed misunderstood what he was asking for, but soon gave up because the bottom line was, I didn’t care enough to wade through the rambling. He is a very boring AND a very sad young man.
*sigh* threatening suicide as a manipulation tactic does sound like him
He’s done it before, iirc.
Holy cow, I just that post and now I’m worried for his mom’s safety.
I read this s**t, and then I worry about the people closest to these guys. Like the other night, I was up worrying about “Bill’s Wife” after she popped up here (about which he stated, “I was not thrilled…”)
OK, signing off now… Gotta go back to my life…
GGG is just sad. There’s really no other way to put it. Sad and pathetic.
Does incel include women and non-binary genders or just men? I’ve always wondered…
Women are sexual gatekeepers, who can get laid whenever they want!
Non-binaries don’t exist to these folks? Idk really. I do know that by sex = penetration standards, I’ve been celibate, uh, six years? And by any standard it’s been two years. And this is me whining on the internet…oh wait, no, I’m good, I mean, I miss my pharm student, but that’s not “oh poor me I
can’ togethercan’t get laid”, that’s missing zir in particular, sexytimes are just icing there.@SittieKitty
If you’re a woman who’s incel, it’s probably by choice, according to misogynists* I don’t think they even acknowledge non-binary genders. I haven’t yet figured out how things work with same sex couples in incel logic land.
*forget which group the incel dudes are…I can’t keep them all straight anyway 😛
Since women are apparently sluts who can/do get laid all the time, at the same time as being utterly uninterested in sex, having no sex drive at all and having to be persuaded with $$$$ or tricked into sex (when we’re not spermjacking, of course) then I guess it’s impossible for us to be incel.
La Strega – GGG’s been ranting on in this vein for years. I don’t know if he’ll ever do anything, but I do know he’s full of shit.
Pierre knows it too.
*snort* Depending on sexual standards, I’ve NEVER been laid, consensually or not. But those standards aren’t mine or my husband’s; we’re both pretty happy.
I somehow managed to miss GGG’s run, so I only know about him in the most basic terms. Someone give me the troll baseball card version, or relevant posts?
Argh, anyone remember or know how to find the threads where he was ranting? I tried search and ctrl f for incel and government gets girlfriends but it’s not helping.
I wonder if I’ll ever understand incels… I’ve been single for roughly three years now, and it really isn’t a huge problem. I mean, it sucks that my last relationship ended, because she was brilliant, and it kinda sucks that I haven’t found anyone with whom I shared a mutual interest since then, but it’s not like there’s some massive hole in my life in desperate need of filling.
It’s like DLC. I’ve got the full game, and I’m enjoying it. I’m not opposed to getting the relationship and sex expansions, I’d quite like to if I’m honest, but the main game is keeping me perfectly entertained, and I don’t want to get a version of those expansions that’s incompatible with my gaming platform.
Kitteh — the googlefu trick is “site:manboobz.com topic”, swap topic out and put in whatever you’re searching for.
kittehserf,
He didn’t comment under those names here, I’m pretty sure, but I can’t remember what he posted as. I think he might have been using someone else’s name.
However, as promised, here are my babies snuggling:
Hey everyone, aw lovely, lovely kitties wordsp1nner.
So I followed that link @Valerian, and ended up at GGG’s blog.
So far down the rabbit hole….lots and lots of poo.
Also, anagram time!
Robin Thicke = Itchier Knob.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer bloke. 🙂
I came out male, informal and weak male European, formal.
Must be ’cause. I’m so sweary, and we all know feeeemales don’t swear!
Bloody, sodding hell, where did that full stop come from? I’m starting to hate my ipad.
Ophelia – Damn it, now I really do need to sanitize my fucking dirty shitty potty mouth. 🙁
*is kidding*
Hey Alice, I hope you’re feeling okay, sorry about the horribles you experienced. Lots of hugs coming your way if you want them. 🙂
That goes for everybody else too, I’ve caught up and am so sorry if anyone is feeling sad.
Lots of hugs. 🙂
Okay, WTF is this? Over on GGG’s shit heap he says in the ‘About me’ section:
Am I missing something here? Partially incel but fucking? Really?
Oh, by that standard yep, six years. FWB apparently still means incel…interesting, cuz it sure didn’t feel…uh, never mind, TMI, you get my point here.
Wait, what? I know they don’t know what words mean, but do they even know what words mean!?
KITTIEEEEEEEEEEES!
*ahem
Incel seems to change meaning according to GGG’s whim of the moment. If he’s now changed it to mean “not in a LTR” or even “not married” he’s just weaseling with words, again. Celibacy means not married and sexually abstinent. I’m not aware that “doesn’t get as much sex as he wants/doesn’t get sex on demand” counts. As to LTR – he’d better get used to that, because nobody’s likely to want one with such a whiney, petulant, manipulative little skeeve.
Those are cute kitties, wordsp1nner.
