Put on your thinking caps today, because we are going to wade into the highly rarefied world of Red Pill Theory. Our Guest Lecturer today is a totally ALPHA DOG Red Pill Redditor by the name of GayLubeOil — don’t worry, fellas, he’s straight! — who has some important insights for us all on the nature of women.
Namely, that women are basically just overgrown children. Who give blow jobs.
Let’s let him explain, in a post that’s now Number One With A Sticky in the Red Pill Subreddit.
After reading all of that, you may have a few questions. Obviously, the most important question is: why Greek Yogurt? Well, in addition to being very popular with the ladies, it is apparently quite high in iron. Let’s let Professor LubeOil explain why that’s so crucial:
Well, with that critical issue taken care of in a totally not creepy or red-flaggy kind of way, let’s move on to some of the serious discussion Professsor LubeOil’s thesis inspired in the Red Pill Subreddit.
Ah, who am I kidding? They mainly just posted comments about how totally right he was and how women totally are a bunch of overgrown children. But saying women are children is totes not misogyny!
And, heck, even if a dude maybe is a teensy bit of a misogynist, what’s the big deal, so long as it convinces him to treat his women properly — that is, like you would treat special needs children.
Damn those feminazis and their “equality!” Why, it’s almost un-American!
His is certainly not the sharpest ass in the ol’ plowing match. And his tractor is missing a wheel, judging by the way his prose hobbles…
I thought maybe they’d ploughed right over ol’ Fitzy’s arse, hence his being so upset.
You know, that’s an interesting point. I seem to recall WAAAAAAAAAY back when I was dodging dinosaurs on the way to class on my first year in college, I took a course on the family in history, and I seem to recall that in much of premodern Europe and Britain, where “bundling” was also a common practice, a couple’s betrothal could not be considered sealed until the young bride’s bodice started to get a bit tight. Because it was accepted that, for whatever reason, some couplings didn’t produce children, and the families wanted to provide for the possibility that the young couple could be rematched to others in marriages more likely to produce children.
They are childless because ‘degenerate’ women don’t submit to having lots and lots and lots of babies on a schedule that men would prefer. Only men can be childless, you see, because only men need a scion and heir to pass their collection of limited edition Star Wars figurines and collection of “classic” Hustler magazines down to. Women are either not yet pregnant, or getting a little space because they are still nursing the last one, or too “callous, frivilous or self serving” to be willing to get pregnant according to the preferences of their lord and master.
Please let this be the next big fad in inaccurately depicted history.
And the same men are likely to turn around and bleat about paper abortions and the horror of having to pay for a child’s upkeep.
I had the cutest image of dinosaurs wearing glasses and carrying books to class.
Of course, this was the immediate image that brought to mind, and now I must vacuum the cracker crumbs out of my keyboard.
Or there’s the hipster version.
Speaking of butts on rugs:
Woop woop woop!
Bina, if I have pug-related nightmares tonight, I’ll blame you!
That is terrifying.
And I can’t stop watching it.
I can’t decide if this one is worse or not.
Oh hey, Fitz went from claiming that demeaning the demographic that you want to date is a natural and universal thing to claiming that men only do it because they’re being reactionary. I guess at least the second claim is more honest.
Also, rain! So much rain! We need it though.
@cloudiah
The Arboretum was amazing in the rain. It really poured on us at one point. The peacocks were all staying around the entry buildings, sheltering under the eaves and looking miserable. I told my friend “They’re thinking, ‘It never rains like this in India.’ They’re wrong, but that’s what they’re thinking.”
The pond was completely full. I heard people saying it had been almost empty a few days earlier. In another water feature, we saw a huge frog just hanging out underwater. Between showers, all kinds of little songbirds were flittering around, and the Canada geese were all paired off and getting cocky. We forgot to bring any bread with us, and it made them very huffy.
I’m so envious of everyone getting rain right now. Here in Southern Ontario, we’ve got more polar vortex, with no end in sight. And I’ve got cabin fever like you wouldn’t believe.
We’re so wimpy and used to easy weather here that some people refuse to go out when it’s raining. Mr C and I did absolutely nothing on the last day off we had together because we didn’t want to get wet.
If you want truly terrifying kitties …

RE: katz
Yeeeeeahhhhh, I gotta say I find it really obnoxious when full-fat proselytes go off on how reduced/nonfat food is not real food. It’s OK to prefer one kind of food without having to delegitimize everything else.
I agree, but it’s kind of annoying to not be able to BUY full-fat Greek yogurt. Like, I have no problem with no-fat yogurt! I ate it all the time before the ED Police got me. It’s just that I can’t even FIND Greek yogurt these days that’s not low-fat or no-fat. I have to go to the Indian shop across town.
RE: gillyrosebee
Can we instead talk about the travesty of it being nearly impossible these days to find yogurt that is just yogurt, without granola, nuts, jam, fruit puree, etc. or “vanilla bean flavor” (because actual vanilla is so difficult to come by?!?) in it?
OH GOD I HATE THAT. In part due to ED reasons (I don’t like having things in my food that I didn’t add myself) and in part just because… Christ, I can add fruit myself, in the exact quantity I want! It’s actually a fun way to make impromptu desserts! (My favorite is to add raisins or pomegranate; a lifesaver for me back in the bad ED days was chocolate Instant Breakfast.)
RE: BigMomma
The sauce separates and goes grainy.
Yes, that! That’s what drives hubby crazy. He’s trying to make a creamy sauce, and it comes out grainy instead. It’s a texture thing.
I feel like maybe the reason a lot of stores don’t sell plain yogurt is that they know their product doesn’t taste very good, and they’re hoping that if they add enough extras people won’t notice.
Fitz: By no historical standard can we call modern male/famale relationships healthy or stable…*
What reactionary bullshit.
You know what else isn’t “healthy or stable” by “historical standards”…? Non-slaveowning societies (or non-tyrannies).
Is there a sea-change taking place. I sure as fuck hope so. Is it going to be seamless? Of course not. But to take “history” as your guide, and the idea that the change isn’t seamless as ground to treat half the human race as inferior/property… that’s morally twisted.
Yes, Yes, I am saying your morals are twisted. You are deficient in your sense of humanity if you believe things like, “just how reasonable it is,” about PUA/MRA reactions. It’s not reasonable (it’s expectable, not reasonable).
That’s without the nonsense you are spouting about, “rational actors”.
*actually, I do, for all the reasons you say they aren’t. That a significant number fail, has always been the case (hence the widespread idea of, “loveless marriage” as a norm). The idiocy of, “never has infidelity been so high, fails address the idea that any man who could afford it wasn’t (socially) begrudged a mistress; so long as he played by the rules. Victorian England (seen as, “prudish” by so many moderns) had a HUGE fight to raise the age of cosent to 14. Prostitution was legal; with people fucking in the alleys, as, “gentleman” took advantage of how easy “play for pay” could be gotten.
The idea that men have to be partners, not owners, makes the real stability of a relationship stronger. Yeah, people who stop being happy can leave, but that’s a good thing.
Really is a pain when it comes to cooking, though. I’m lucky enough to be close enough to a hippy market to be able to get plain yogurt whenever I want, but if I had to rely on regular supermarkets, well, I don’t think I really want to try strawberry flavored curry.

…but I like plain yogurt. <.<
So do I, but in terms of the stuff that’s in most supermarkets? Nope, I don’t want to eat that without some added flavoring. To be fair, dairy products where I grew up in the Middle East are really really good, so I’m probably extra unreasonably picky.
Yum. Ranch dressing is one of my favorite guilty pleasures. We used to put it on everything when I was growing up; my Dad started calling it yummy yummy sauce, and it stuck. XD
Random – the special sauce in McDonalds burgers is Thousand Island, right? I generally refuse to have anything on burgers except cheese (or chilli, if it’s good), but I seem to recall reading that the pink stuff was Thousand Island.
Oh, that was @gillyrosebee. And yes, I think McD’s burgers use some kind of Thousand Island.

Ooooh, that sounds good! *dairy hog*
