This is a picture of A Voice for Men’s new commemorative coin. No, really, they have a commemorative coin. It was designed by Peter Vinczer, father of A Voice for Men’s Attila Vinczer, possibly — I suspect — with the help of Judy Chicago. The coins cost $58.88, and will be issued in a first edition of 10,000.
In the comments to AVFM’s announcement, six people have proudly announced that they’ve purchased a coin. So get yours quickly, because there are only 9,994 left before the first edition runs out!
The only real question is what exactly is being depicted on the coin:
Is it:
1) An otter in a manhole
2) A man levitating a carrot over a milkshake
3) A vagina
4) A vagina
5) Come on, it’s obviously a vagina
ANSWER: I have no fucking clue. Seriously, I’ve been staring at this for like ten minutes and I have no idea what on earth this could be. What is the round thing? Why is there a tiny hand? If that thing above the circle thing is a raindrop or a teardrop or whatever, why is it upside-down? Why would AVFM issue a goddamn commemorative coin in the first place.
I do know one thing, though: If you can afford to waste $$58.88 on this piece of crap, you are not oppressed in any way. And you should probably have your right to vote stripped from you.
Just kidding about that last bit. You should still be allowed to vote even if you buy vagina coins from a dude named Attila.
kirbywarp, cool!
And I need to spend the time transcribing. Good luck with your studies. Are you taking classes at PCC? If so is Dena still teaching?
I was curious about the Premier Canadian Mint and wanted to see if they had a website, so I googled. I found this: http://www.ripoffreport.com/r/The-Premier-Canadian-Mint/Newmarket-Ontario/The-Premier-Canadian-MintNot-Royal-Canadian-Mint-wrongfully-dismissed-me-as-an-employee-a-277037 but also this: http://www.yorkregion.com/news-story/1450909-selfless-acts-of-kindness/ . Not planning to google more, though. There doesn’t seem to be an official website, at least not on my first page of results. I’m not trying to dig down on the issue, but I’m Canadian, and I’m starting to feel a bit worried with the number of vocal MRAs and MRA organizations that are apparently based in Canada. I’m trying to look these things up the chain more.
Fine, but the drop only stays that shape until it parts with the main body of water, at which point surface tension immediately makes it round.
Спасибо. Yes, I’m at PCC, but I don’t know if there is a Dena there; she is not teaching my class.
Yes. I agree with the others who think the coin depicts spermjacking. It looks like a condom being pierced. The tear? From the hypothetical male who is being spermjacked? Stupid shit.
“What would go well on this circle? How about an oval!”
At least put in another shape; not the aesthetic that I’d aim for.
That really looks like an anus to me. Maybe the upside teardrop is supposed to be a suppository? In which case that hand is being pretty clumsy about administering it.
All this endless fundraising …what are they stockpiling cash for? there not spending it on men’s domestic violence shelters or somesuch…also this coin looks 3rd rate..words and water graphic are both off centered and really poorly done..as noted the hand sculpting is high school lvl…and “commemorative coins” are a TV guide lvl cheap money scam…this stinks of a cheap money grab.
It’s an extension of the vending machine mindset with which they approach human relations. If they just throw enough money into the Paul Elam wishing well, feminism will magically disappear.
As I’ve said before, AVfM is a cargo cult.
Oooh, maybe it’s the representation of our douchebag sexist racist shithead Prime Minister who once used the term “suppository of all wisdom”.
Poor Robert Kennedy is rolling in his grave. Seriously so sick of bigots hijacking real civil rights’ language and harnessing the clout of real activists’ quotes to try and trick the public and even themselves into believing they are an oppressed group. Ick.
Wow, he could give Dan Quayle a run for his money in the dumbass politician contest.
Oh, he’d win by a mile. He’s not only a dumbass, he’s scum – right up there in the Worst Prime Minister Ever tables, and he’s only been in office since September. This fucking asshole refers to refugees who’re desperate enough to want to commit suicide as moral blackmailers.
Are they sure they got the right Peter Vinczer, not just some guy who happened to be named Peter Vinczer?
What is bothering me almost as much as the crappy graphics is “A Voice For Men” not being centered across the top. It’s just butt(heh)-ugly. I have seen better design on a souvenir press-a-penny. This thing looks like it was built from bad clipart and a random whack with a hammer.
@ pallygirl – isn’t it weird about smells though? Old Spice smelt absolutely brilliant on my first ever boyfriend, and to me, to this very day, smells just wrong on everybody else.
Something I think smells even better is Bay Rum, but it does depend how you feel about cloves.
Hope you are thriving btw.
@bluecatbabe: thanks for the kind thoughts. And I do like the smell of cloves. 🙂
Kirbywarp has returned to us! Hi, kirby! *wavewave*
Hey LBT! *waves*
I agree with everybody who says it’s sperm-jacking, but to me it looks like a tampered-with diaphragm and not a condom. Still have no idea what the little hand is doing though…
Wow, maybe I should come up with some commemorative coins to sell to MRAs… they can support my lifestyle instead of Paul Elam’s!
I guess someone realized that there was probably a big overlap between AVFM dudes and goldbugs.
Do you think the heart shaped hole in the center of the cowpie is a bit of male whimsy, or the nose of a swimming otter
I have no idea what the deformed hand signifies.
@gorillaella: I’m with Ivy Shoots on this: it clearly has to be John the Otter, who is what passes for a leading light in the illustrious MHRM.
@kittehserf: Wow, that is scummy. I’ve heard plenty of bad stuff about Abbott, from the media and from friends in Australia, but that’s the worst so far.
