Well, the denizens of Reddit’s TOTALLY ALPHA Red Pill subreddit have weighed in on the stolen celebrity nude pics that have so many Redditors — and other skeezballs — so excited. And they have some, well, intriguing explanations for why feminists are troubled by the widespread dissemination of stolen nude pictures that were never supposed to be seen by the general public.
In a thread with the lovely title Why are the feminazis so buttdevastated about the leaked nude pics?, a RedPill dude with the lovely handle trpmdsrfggts explains that said feminazis are angry because the pics — some of which show the celebrity women looking like, you know, actual women — are driving down the “price of pussy.”
I’ll let him explain, because his logic is obviously more sophisticated than anything I learned in my pussy economics classes in college:
Wow. That seems completely ass-backwards to me, but what do I know? I’m just a beta or gamma or epsilon or pi or whatever Greek letter it is that dudes like me are.
Others in the thread expand upon this, er, argument. I’m just going to paste some of their comments in, because, honestly, trying to parse their “logic” in order to think of funny things to say about them hurts my brain. (Clicking on any of these pics will get you to the original quote in context.)
Oh, there’s more, so much more, but that’s about all I have time for now, as I need to get back to poppin bottles and, you know, doing whatever else I can to keep up the price of pussy, because, as a male feminist, that’s obviously job number one for me.
I think it is because they do not view an attractive celebrity who turns them on as a private individual due the rights of a private individual. In a similar was as many of them are arguing, “Well, she shouldn’t have taken those nude photos in the first place!” they truly believe that such women do not have a right to privacy because they have an obligation as famous attractive women to service these men’s lusts.
I suppose that most women do not want to be bought sold or traded so they just naturally assume that other women don’t want to be either.
CMD : they truly believe that such women do not have a right to privacy because they have an obligation as famous attractive women to service these men’s lusts.
I think you’ve got that a little wrong – rather, they believe the actresses have already turned themselves into objects for male consumption, and these photos are simply part of this. I think for most of them, it is less a belief that the women have an “obligation” to make themselves cheesecake, but that they ARE cheesecake.
Cassie’s Major Domo, they sound just like rape apologist to me (look what she was wearing, she was definitely asking for it).
I’m still aghast at the by now infamous Twitter twit. He posted that, since Jennifer Lawrence would never consider dating a guy like him, having nude pictures of herself made publicly available was simply karma. The degree of oblivious entitlement is almost beyond my imagination.
The pseudo-economic argument in the OP is not quite so entitled, but represents a view of human nature that is just as ugly and wrong. It must be dreadful to sexually desire people for whom you have such festering disgust. Maybe if they, I don’t know, went their own way?
@Phoenician
Good points as well, although I think you could also say that they feel they deserve even more cheesecake from these women.
As I’ve discovered from reading them, they only thing they are worse at than “going their own way” is the correct use of ellipses.
I just wanted to open up to you sisters and beta bux (WTF does that mean?) brothers and tell you how truly sad I feel. I won’t ever be able to be sadistic to a man again now that Jennifer Lawrence’s forgettable, boring pussy is available to see somewhere on the Internet. My life is forever changed.
Seriously, WTF? How can you assert that something is forgettable and boring in one breath and then seriously try to say that getting to see this forgettable, boring thing has the power to change the value of anything at all? I mean, if he’s trying to say that all women’s vaginas are forgettable and boring, and this is the very first time he’s actually seen one, then it may have changed the value of pussy for him. In which case, good, stop fucking obsessing about it then.
Also, did the last guy seriously say that pretty women are the only members of our society who have total control over their own sexuality? What? Oh wait, he doesn’t have total control over his own sexuality because he can’t have sex with anyone he wants, anytime he wants, right? Bwaaahaaahaaa, the law says I can’t be a rapist! Poor me. And not-so-pretty women don’t have total control over their own sexuality because sometimes guys turn them down, right? But of course, no one ever turns down pretty women. Or rapes them. Or steals private nude photos of them and pastes them around the Internet.
By all means, they should go their own way…Really! Go already.
Jeeeez, that’s some Crapitalist gobbledegook right there, it’s like they’re from a completely different planet. Didn’t someone mention the Ferengis here or on another site?
Also their pro-rape attitude is so sickening.
I’ll admit that I’m having trouble understanding how guys on reddit thinking that JLaw or some other actress is super-duper-unbelievably hot is going to make them think that I am also super-duper-unbelievably hot or how some guys on reddit deciding that JLaw is average will make the guys on reddit think that I too am average. How does their opinion of the attractiveness of some other random woman, entirely unconnected to me, aftect their opinion of my attractiveness? How am I able to trick someone into thinking that he finds me attractive when he really finds me average, and even if I can, how does this relate to JLaw?
Also, why do the Pillocks assume that the only reason that women refuse them sex is to bargain? Are they incapable of imagining that a woman simply doesn’t want them? Well, I actually can answer that. It helps their egos to believe that they’re only getting rejected because women are holding out to get something else out of them. Furthermore, it can allow them to minimize sexual coercion because they see this as another way to take away women’s bargaining power. They also believe that women aren’t refusing out of a lack of interest so by using coercion, they can tell themselves that they’re just giving women what they (the women) really want.
CMD: Good points as well, although I think you could also say that they feel they deserve even more cheesecake from these women.
Alas, I think you need to strike out the last three words of your statement. They feel they deserve more cheesecake; the women are resources rather than agents in supplying it.
The market was “flooded with goods”? Um, I’m pretty sure there were millions of photos of naked women on the internet last Friday. (Some of those pictures are also stolen or non-consensual, but many are not. Which only reinforces that the ONLY reason to want to see stolen/non-consensually shared photos of a woman naked is not because of the nudity but because you get off on participating in violating women.)
So how is this stealing and illegal sharing of a few hundred photos changing the entire market for women worldwide, exactly?
These guys are just sad. They so badly want something to happen in the world that will force all women to become as terrified and desperate as they believe women rightfully ought to be, i.e. “desperate enough to fuck me.” Because this whole “women get to choose who to have sex with” thing is misandry! and boner oppression!
@Phoenician
Ah, yes, very true. Considering them stricken.
But this makes no sense.
A supply shock that lowered price would increase the demand of current pussy stock, ceteris paribus, on account of the reduced price with the Axiom of Demand because the affordability of the good would outcompete current substitute products and this would increase the revenue for current owners of pussy stock, which would actually probably result in a net gain of equal income for the participants in the oligarchical pussy market, because I’ll accept your rantings about collusion because why not it makes a neater model, but with the reduced overhead per unit of pussy in relation to the structure of the market the availability would as stated increase per unit of price, so why are they complaining there is literally and currently more pussy available for anyone if that’s the sort of thing you care about.
Also if you’re trying to price maximize supply dumping is not always a bad strategy, but that means I have to dig into the inter-relational trade models and drawing those takes a day and a half.
Besides, you’d have to agree that the pussy market is probably the closest to a perfect competition structure you’re likely to see in any form of classical economics, so this shock of the available supply would only at best cause some problems for established firms that might get run out because of their inability to match this new lower price, which, again according to every theory I know is supposed to be good for the consumer of pussy related products because the new equilibrium is at least a tad lower than the new one on the price per share so what does that mean
god dammit the sexual market place is probably the only market where market failures consistently, repeatedly and with great gusto happen again and again and again because the consumers and participants in the sexual market place are all so recklessly, ridiculously stupid.
if the availability of information has changed so that the participants in the economy has a better change of avoiding informational asymmetries that’s supposed to be a good thing that leads to a better market efficiency and a good step towards wonderful pareto optimality. I could write a case study in how wrong this all is.
That’s it, I’m taking away your economic terms. FOREVER
( I tried to include graphs but got sad half way through drawing them )
My brain is broken.
I can’t even really summarise how the economic argument about women and how we should shape up is so massively odd to me.
My life involves my partner in almost every area (except drawing – he’s not so much into that), and when we do stuff together, a lot of it is about how the garden is looking good, what science fiction is on TV, planning putting up more plaster, who is doing what in computer gaming (he works in computer gaming, so he has a tonne of awful stories of his own), Minecraft, whether that last recipe was good, what to do next in the garden, where to go for a walk on the weekend, going to the zoo, our job woes, looking at birds…I mean.
Do these people actually ever have fun?
Women should shape up HOW precisely? Like, what would even help these guys? Even when they get what they want, they freak out.
They seem so brittle.
Sorry for the ramble, but it’s such peculiar behaviour on display here. Sex seems so desperate and horrible for them.
My brain is broken.
I believe what Fibinachi is saying is that redditors will switch to fapping over photos instead of dating (the higher priced alternative), and that women will be able to exploit the lucrative market of amateur porn with this increased demand as an alternative to actual relationships with redditors.
So, pretty much win-win.
@cloudiah seconding that. I’m… I don’t even.
@steampunked
Hey, you phrased in 23 words what I did in 386.
@Phoenician in a time of Romans
I guess that’s probably an analysis you could make? I was really just saying that their understanding of economics is hilariously wrong.
Oh, and that market failures are normally because of problems in the market structure – not because the consumers of the market in question are about as intelligent as rocks (Who, despite all their other wonderful qualities, have so far displayed exactly zero silicate based reasoning ability)
Their whole philosophy revolves around the idea that sex is a resource that women unfairly hoard, and that stealing it from us via rape or nudes that we didn’t consent to their seeing or upskirt shots or whatever is somehow striking a blow for freedom and righteousness. No wonder nobody wants to date them – not only are they horrible, their attitude towards sex makes any sort of healthy relationship with them impossible.
It’s kinda funny (and sad and unsurprising) that those idiots won’t even consider that some people might feel, you know, *empathy* with the victims of the leaks. That the outcry about that leak is simply common human decency with no ulterior motives. But quite obviously, such a thought pattern is utterly alien to manospherers.
I just tried to explain the sexual marketplace and the recent devaluing of pussy to Busband. We both got completely confused. He’s now playing ‘attack blanket’ with one of the cats instead.
Which got me thinking – do these guys realize that while they’re coming up with these wickwhack theories, other people are happily living their lives, completely free of all this tangled wankitude? Like @steampunked said: making dinner, chatting about work, planning their weekends, doing laundry…
“The male sexual gratification market”? Do these guys think they’re some sort of vagina day traders?
Oh, so that’s all rape, harrassment, and boundary violation is…just a tag sale that devalues all women everywhere. Because when some creeper gropes my friends on the subway, my first thought is always “Dammit, my vagina just lost market value. Why didn’t I sell at 150?”
