The Man Boobz Pledge Drive continues! If you haven’t already, please consider clicking the little button below and sending some bucks my way.
Thanks! (And thanks again to all who’ve already donated.) Now back to our regularly scheduled programming:
So over on A Voice for Men, young Jason Gregory seems faintly jealous that young women who put up dating profiles online tend to get flooded with messages — and the occasional dick pic — from horny guys.
F]ree cock is everywhere. Men give it away like it’s worthless. … I doubt that it is unusual at all for a woman to get 300 messages in her inbox from men who are desperate for female affection, approval, and sex. There is no doubt in my mind that men send “dick-pics” and clamor, bother, and sometimes harass women for their affections and attentions.
But Jason feels no sympathy for young women who put up profiles hoping to meet some nice young fellow who’s also into Sherlock and Neil Gaiman and Indian food and instead get messages from guys who introduce themselves by expressing a desire to ejaculate in their hair.
No, Jason is angry because he’s convinced all these offers of “free cock” only serve to make the women of the world into snooty-stuck stuck-up so-and-sos who think they’re all that and a folder full of dick pics.
All you men who give it away, all you do is reinforce the entitlement mentality of women who believe that their being present is plenty. You reinforce the idea that women don’t owe anything to the relationship—that they deserve a free-ride of cocks and that they don’t even have to break a sweat.
Jason, I should add, means this last bit literally. He’s resentful that when he allegedly engages in the act of coitus he has to do all the work while his alleged partners allegedly lie there like inflatable love-dolls.
Anyhoo,.Jason has a plan to take these stuck-up ladies down a peg or two: A cock strike.
Yep, he wants men to start saying “no” to women who are interested in them, just to see how they like it. But he doesn’t want them to just say no. He wants them to be giant dicks about it.
Try telling a girl no. Tell her, after she makes it clear that she wants your cock, that you’re not interested in giving it to her. Tell her that she isn’t interesting, that her soul is dog-shit and that she has nothing to offer other than boobs and booty, that she is a piece of shit and a total failure as a human being, that you don’t find her attractive and that she isn’t even good enough to be a cum-bucket. Tell her that she is never going to be any good at sucking cock and that she needs to stop pretending that she is doing any favors and learn to compensate for her inadequacies by becoming “kinky.” Tell her that her vapid life of shoes and pop-culture and materialism are soulless pursuits of dog-shit. Watch what happens. If you Jez-ladies wanna know what “hostile” means, see this rejected woman.
Emphasis mine.
A Voice for Men, you may recall, sees itself as leading the most important civil rights movement of the 21st century. I am sure Jason Gregory’s post here will be remembered alongside Martin Luther King’s Letter from a Birmingham Jail as a classic in civil rights literature.
EDIT: I added a couple more “allegedlys” to a sentence I thought needed them.
::Raises hand::
So I read Jason’s full article, and he seriously tries to argue that women being bombarded with creepy messages and inappropriate pictures by random guys on dating sites is female privilege. And that the poor men who send these creepy messages and pictures have a tendency to be rejected, so they’re the ones being oppressed.
No dude, thinking that men are entitled to send whatever creepy and inappropriate messages to women they want, and are entitled to sex, and the women have no say in the manner? That’s male privilege.
Every time I read “your soul is dogshit” it does make me laugh a little. I don’t think I could take someone seriously if that was how they chose to insult me. I’d be too hung up on trying to figure out what it even meant or how I could be insulted by it.
It sounds like someone parodying MRAs, and not something someone would actually use to insult someone, it’s just too amazing.
@kitteh,
along with your cat sweater, you can wear some cat tights!

I think we discussed cat leggings before, but this is a cat legging round up!
fromafar2013, I am shock and appalled at your sexual freedom…how dare you be empower of your body/decision making (sarcasm). Didn’t you get the memo…you are here for menz pleasure.
I wonder if David is around, socky is being a bit obvious.
@ auggz
It’s an infinite regress!

JoJo: you know what? If you are going to keep attacking me for petty reasons even though I’m on your side I’m just not going to talk to any of you. I’m tired of getting bullied in the comments on this blog.
Then good bye, you have my permission to depart.. I mean it. If you can’t be decent, and have to insist on the right to offend people, please leave.
Being, “on our side” is fucking useless if that requires people to put up with abusive language from you. If you think bullying people with your passive use of insulting language about mental illnesses, well it’s nice you agree about feminism but that’s immaterial to you lack of concern for the feelings of others.
Go be an asshole somewhere else.
LBT: The best I can offer is Wounded Warrior and the VA. There is a great program in Calif (the name of which is escaping me), but slots are limited. You might want to read “Thank you for your service” by David Finkel.
But it is a sort of grim read. It mentions the program in Calif.
The DoD’s One Source Crisis Line is 800-342-9647
augzz: If it’s combat zone related PTSD, then that’s all the attempt at diagnosis we need.
auggziliary, misery love company…they see as…if I can’t have sex no one can’t.
Let’s break this down honestly, shall we? Dear angry misogynists – men who don’t hate women as much as you do and who can get laid are not going to stop having sex as a gesture of solidarity just because the whole getting laid thing isn’t working out for you. This is not a thing that’s ever going to happen. Sorry about that.
@cupi: Aww, did I hurt your feels? Why is it you hate men so much?
If you had all actually read the article you would see it’s talking about men valuing their sexuality instead of sharing offering it to spoiled self entitled brats such as yourself.
Fortunately, men aren’t the only people with dicks. So that plan is a complete failure.
The whole ‘cock strike’ is not in the writers article, it’s something that was made up by man boobz. Yes, reading is good!
Also, David, if you’re around you might want to check and see if our new friend kristal is actually Mikey. My spidey senses are tingling based on the way he’s obsessing over cupisnique.
Thought it seems you are all quite excited about the ‘cock strike’ idea…me thinks you doth protest too much….
Wow, you guys sure know how to read Kristal is a woman’s name. Ta-da! I’m a woman. Go on loves, go see for yourselves.
It’s funny that a site that is supposedly set up to mock hatred aka misogyny is all about hatred aka misandry. Very interesting indeed.
I was thinking kitt, but meh. Even if no sock, troll is not doing anything we haven’t seen before, regardless.
There seems to be a factory somewhere that churns out low quality trolls. It’s been stepping up production lately.
“Wow, you guys sure know how to read Kristal is a woman’s name.”
You aren’t seriously using your real name, are you? You might want to rethink that if you are. No one here is going to do anything, but other places/people might not be so kind. Seriously.
Well, I did read the full article, and it’s basically Jason having a temper-tantrum because he thinks women are getting more sex than he is. And that they aren’t having sex with him. And that they object to unsolicited pictures of random penises.
And he says they have dog-doodie for souls. That’s something only an angry toddler can come up with.
1: Kittehserf: Yeah, saw that exorcism (it was awhile ago, actually). It came at a great moment. See, Pope Francis had just gone on one of his little goodwill runs where he tries to make the Church seem less like an anachronistic, authoritarian and thoroughly corrupt institution that spreads hate, pestilence and suffering throughout the world. Then the good bishop (or was it an arch-bishop?) goes and shows their real face again.
2: On RealDolls and their like: Honestly, the big problem is that there’s a segment of the RD community that seems to get off on pressing awareness of their fetish on others outside of an appropriate setting. Many folks have SOME sort of kink, fetish or sexual hangup. These, generally, don’t make them bad people (though some cannot be acted upon ethically.) But most people don’t like hearing about the sexy-times of people they don’t know well, especially in settings where such things aren’t relevant. So when there’s a vocal subset of a particular kink that insists on being ‘recognized’, they’re going to cross a lot of folks’ boundaries, and thereby create a backlash against the kink itself–which is often as understandable as it is unfair (or is it the other way ’round?).
3: On fictional sex-bots: Curiously, I see a large number of male-bots designed for female pleasuring in webcomics. I’ve noticed that that medium, in general, is often ahead of the curve on such things (which is why it blows my mind when people still rage-quit comics over the revelation that one or more of the characters is gay–seriously, people, if you’re that sensitive to the subject, just go watch the 700 Club).
4: On the idea of ‘real’ sex-bots (such as Bostonian described)–I’m honestly not sure I believe in a definition of artificial intelligence that allows for both ‘real’ intelligence AND the inability to have malleable desires (ie, self-directed). So either those guys want something that’s a really good simulation but not sapient, or what they really want is a rape victim with no right to complain or press charges. Given the number of MRAs in that camp… yeah, I think Option B is pretty likely.
My opinion of this troll.
We don’t discriminate. We simply exclude certain types of people.
And now, for something less boring…
