Men Against Misandry is a blog, and a Facebook page, devoted to the proposition that feminism is misandry.
The anonymous fellow (or fellows) behind the sites, or group, or whatever it is, has apparently decided that the best way to fight the alleged misandry of feminism is with raging misogyny.
I would call it fighting fire with fire, but it’s more like fighting an imaginary campfire with the flaming pits of hell.
The latest post on the Men Against Misandry blog takes on the issue of women athletes, and why they get less attention and money than their male equivalents. Mr. MAM has a fairly simple explanation:
Why are there no truly famous women in sports?
It’s because women suck at sports. Period. We all know there’s only one real professional sports team that anybody actually cares about – the men’s team. Men just let women have their own sports teams to feel better about themselves. That’s just the truth.
I didn’t put that bit in bold. He did. He wanted to make sure we understood just how much he thinks women really suck at sports.
And in case we haven’t gotten the message yet, he continues:
You know that old saying? you throw like a girl!
Well, it’s a saying for a reason. Women just plain suck at sports. If women sucked dick half as well as they suck at sports there would be no more divorces in the great US of A.
Yep, he’s the one that put that last bit in bold, too. Indeed, he was so proud of that last sentence he posted it — just that one sentence — as a separate post on his Facebook page.
It’s all in a day’s work for this noble fighter against misandry.
Thanks to the folks in AgainstMensRights for pointing me to this blog post.
So he’s never seen Cris Evrett, nor had decent sex.
Got it.
I would pay good money to watch him read this statement while in the company of Serena Williams. Or Lauren Jackson.
His heart is the only thing this guy has ever eaten out, or ever will.
(SOMEONE had to say it…)
It’s tragic that even his imaginary wife is failing to meet his expectations.
I fail to see how female athletes are misandry (then again, I fail to see how most things they call misandry is misandry).
I just love the fact that men ‘let’ women have their own sporting teams. You know, because women need men’s permission to play a tennis match.
I guess blow up dolls don’t suck at blow jobs. Misandry!!
I have the sinking feeling I’m probably being naive, but this MRM can’t actually believe his own bullshit here, right? His “argument” just feels so obviously beyond wrong (and poorly reasoned, at that) that it has to be large-scale trolling or some kind of shock-tactic based performance art. Oror maybe at the weirdest some facile thing he does for attention and brolove? Someone help me out here before my head explodes 🙁
@ chimisaur
MRAs are notorious for how hard they are to Poe. When the real thing is this ridiculous…
He probably thinks that he personally is good at sport too. But even if it were true that “men are inherently better at sports”, unless he is actually a professional/olympic athlete, any professional/olympic athlete, male or female, would be able to whip his arse in their field.
Which would be funny to see admittedly.
So Cathy Freeman’s no good at sport, nor Billie Jean King, nor the Williams sisters, nor Martina Navratilova, nor Nadia Comaneci, nor Dawn Fraser, nor Gertrude Ederle, nor …
What a sad, desperate little man.
Sounds like a dude who once lost a tennis match to a girl and has never gotten over it to me.
neuroticbeagle was right, blockquote monster is awake.
In other words: women suck at sports because BIOTRUTHS™, also if we leave you, it’s because you won’t fuck me, so it’s 100% your fault and if you didn’t want us to divorce you you’d fuck us more.
Why am i not surprised?
They really are that stupid, and they really believe their own shit. Also, their worldview is about 60 years out of date, and based in made-up crapaganda to boot.
Wow, I think I went bad grammar fail. Fuck me and capitalization sometimes.
I wonder how old the writer is. He’s got a “girls-have-the-cooties” vibe going on. Also, I’m sure he’s an accomplished jock and can do more than a single push-up. **eyeroll**
Shiraz – But don’t you know? Suggesting that men can’t do pushups is MISANDRY™!
We won’t even mention doing things like judo
Let me tell you, lots of men (I would go so far as to say most) can’t do a decent push-up.
Good point, cassandra. In any case, I’m probably just sensitive today; I would throw a tantrum about how the world should change to my liking immediately because I’m not in the mood for current affairs, but our MRA friends are a prime example of how well that sort of thing works…
Eek! blockquote monster!
Suggesting that men can’t do anything* is MISANDRY.
*Except not raping women or housework.
And after saying women should do their part for society by giving the best head ever, he wrote this — “… there would be no more divorces in the great US of A.”
In the great US of A, y’all. Ya hear that? He’s a patriot, by god.
Seconded on the push-up thing. It’s amazing how much “crotch thrust on arm stilts” I see during my hapkido class’ push-up time, and almost never from the gals: we get mocked to oblivion for “girl arms” if we dare have improper push-up form. Ugh.
Oh god, Binna, please don’t bring up their crapganda – any MRA takes on evbio, or even just bio, make me blindingly angry. YOU CAN’T MISUSE MY SCIENCE THAT WAY YOU DIRTY, AWFUL, PEOPLE-THINGS! *crys*
