A tiny group of gallant men (and “their women”) go underground to fight the evil gynocratic overlords. Is this the plot of a terrible dystopian potboiler from 1971, or a description of how most MRAs see themselves, and the world, today?
Turns out it’s both. I found this pic in the Blue Pill subreddit, and now I really, really want to read this book.
Here’s a book review from someone who did.

My favourite part! 🙂
@cassandrakitty
I thoroughly enjoyed the frantic paddling of the kitty in the sink. I wonder what kitty’s objective was?
Cassandrakitty, I love how the ‘brilliant’ mister can’t distinguish nouns from adjectives. Also, what the heck does ‘hamster me’ mean?
That tumblr! The stupid, it burns!
Even if she’s willing? What a hassle!
This is probably my favorite:

I hope it is satire, but if it isn’t:
LOL, okay, sir: I will completely restructure my romantic and sexual attractions to men to focus on your hobbies, despite the fact that I am only interested in 2 of them (books + art galleries) and only one of them is an actual dealbreaker for me (books–I can’t see myself with someone who doesn’t read, but what they read isn’t so important).
And I’ll ignore my other preferences, i.e., likes cat, isn’t an unrepentant drunk driver (that actually did tank my attraction to an honestly rather cute guy who was really into me).
I’ll do it so you can get laid, instead of all those guys who are actually compatible with me, whatever their hobbies actually are*.
* My hobbies are really female-dominated, and I don’t really expect to find a man interested in them (I’ve recently realized I’m bi and have a crush on a woman in my craft group, so there are other options). But so long as s/he respects my hobbies, I don’t particularly care.
I like how that one’s addressed to the “females of the world.” Nevermind whether that list of interests does/should apply to all women, I’m sure it doesn’t apply to all the various females of every species.
Ewwwww. Of course he reads Adam Smith and thinks that makes him smart. And, of course he’s into ‘rape play’.
Dear Diary,
Today I learned I must cast off my love for the cute orange tabby. Despite his excellent mousing skills and fabulous tail, he does not play minecraft or take me to the opera. His excuse for the former is a lack of thumbs. As to the latter, he claims management will not accept payment in catnip. I must go scratch the couch now to assuage my pain.
Yours,
Muffin
Dear Diary,
I’m sorry, but after heeding the advice of some dude on the internet, I must cut off all contact with the brown tabby boy. Yes, he thoughtfully grooms my face and inside my ears and he’s always up for a rousing game of lets-try-to-bite-each-other’s-face-off, but he does not even know who Shakespeare is, never mind the other too.
I must beg for more food to drown my sorrows.
(Incidentally, Jade is begging for food every time I enter the kitchen. Pan just begs at 4 in the morning by poking me in the face.)
Ah, the wake up and feed me act: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Jrq03XENSdY
My old cat used to punch Mr C in the face until he’d wake up and provide food. When it’s an 11 pound cat doing that it doesn’t cause much damage, but the annoyance factor is high enough to make someone eventually get up.
(Kitty never did that to me, only Mr C, because he was a misandrist kitty.)
Jade likes to lick my hair, but she hasn’t been doing it since Pan started poking me–probably because Pan does it earlier.
But whenever I had guests over, Jade would go and lick their hair instead. I’m not sure what to think about that.
Mads gave me a Glasgow kiss this morning. Damn, she’s got a hard little head!
The old cat would try to wake up guests in the hope that they’d feed him. I once woke up after my bestie had crashed at my place overnight to a note from her reading “your cat tried to kill me with a plate!”, which he’d apparently pushed off the counter and onto her while she was sleeping.
That’s hilarious. I hope it wasn’t a heavy plate
I once lived with a black cat named Beelzebub who would wake me 1/2 hour before my alarm was set to go off. Every. Damned. Day.
My sister’s cat is an asshole who hates all aside from my sister. She’s even fussy with my sister. This cat strikes me in the head for merely existing. It is just monstrous. I am not allowed to talk to her and don’t even get me started on looking at her. She responds very badly to eye contact and will stalk me and attack my calves when I’m walking if I look at her. Interestingly, she responds extremely well to having her picture taken and will attack me if I put the device down. She wants attention through the camera but not direct.
@marinerachel Just carry a camera with you at your sister’s place. Don’t even take pitures, just carry it and point it at the evil one. It may save your legs!
@ marinerachel,
That reminds me of my sister’s (formerly my grandmother’s) cat. He is a one person cat, and does not like me. He’s kind of old now, but when he first moved in, he would attack my feet, and grandmother claimed it was because I wasn’t wearing socks. Despite the fact that once I was and he caused me to bleed through them.
He can sometimes be friendly, but it isn’t very often, and he switches on the drop of a hat.
marinerachel, strap a cheap camera onto your ankles while you’re at your sister’s place. 😛
@wordsp1nner, He’s not being friendly! He’s trying to suck you in!
Our cats used to wake me up via merciless headbutts around seven so I could feed them (my husband can pretty much sleep through an F5). Since kiddo has been getting me up at 6:15, they’re content to let him do the dirty work and just follow me around til they get fed
wordsp1nner, that reminds me of a friend’s cat. He was a little standoffish but didn’t mind a bit of attention, generally. But once when he was sitting in the hall and I walked past, he just belted me on the ankles. Never did figure out why!
Would an orange tabby who plays Fruit Ninja be acceptable? Because I can supply one…
Katz, Fruit Ninja was not on the dude approved list, however, kitty is willing to negotiate. Has said orange tabby worked out a deal with the opera?
