You all need to watch this music video that deftly rebuts Christina Hoff Sommers on vidya games #GamerGate #PanderingToDickheads

Christina Hoff Sommers is an old school faux-feminist who’s devoted the last several decades to trashing feminism. Lately she’s apparently decided to appeal to a younger audience — or at least a more immature one — by pandering to the #GamerGate crowd.

That’s probably worth a post or two in itself,  but in the meantime you might enjoy this excellent song that deftly rebuts the, er, arguments in her recent video about sexism in video games and why she thinks that’s somehow not a real issue because, you know, dudes like to look at boobies when they play games. No, that’s really her argument — though I’m not sure it even qualifies as an argument, technically speaking.

Anyway, enjoy!

And here’s her original video, if you’re feeling masochistic and would actually enjoy sitting through six and a half very long minutes of simple-minded, patronizing, disingenuous, evidence-free pseudoarguments delivered by someone desperately pandering to terrible, terrible people.

“Wait….is this an I-was-too-drunk-to-consent argument or an I-was-too-horny-to-consent argument?”

It was in fact the “I was too drunk to consent, but increasingly horny as she rubbed the cucumber in my jeans, consent argument.” Initially, I said no. She convinced me to feel otherwise. Also, I love boobs.

Thanks for the boner update. I will now go scrub my mind out with agent orange.

Ew.

Cucumbers are delicious. You are ruining a perfectly good vegetable. Ew. Ew. Ew.

Ah, Viro Dianc appears to have wandered over here from Pro-Male/Anti-Feminist Technology. That is the biggest source of turds ever. Makes sense.

Do you always put a cucumber in your pants when you get drunk? Is that the custom in your country?

Viro, careful there or you’ll fall off the end of your cigar. We need you about as much as we need a boil on our collective asses. Go somewhere else with your dumb friends. Interesting conversation need not require an annoying asshat.

He learnt it from South Park. Chef tells Cartman to do it and Cartman thinks it’s for good luck.

You’re going to lose a lot of insight if I leave you people.

Hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!! Viro, you are not saying anything we haven’t heard before. Many MGTOW trolls have come and gone from here and they all sound just like you. You’re no special snowflake.

It’s not so much a vote as it is us waiting until Kittehserf gets here.

I don’t know why do MGTOW think that women would go crazy without dick. Like do y’all even consider lesbians real?

Also, do they think ace folks aren’t real?

Pretty certain I’m ace, and totally confident that I exist.

Viro, I’m curious. The original copy-n-paste thing you placed here: were you doing that to multiple sites, and then touring back later to see if anybody was talking about it? Did it burn you that we only gave you cursory notice and then moved on? Is that why you decided to come back?

They assume we’d go crazy without dick because they’d go crazy without pussy. If they really wanted to go their own way by now, they would have done so. They are very much like the tantrum throwing kid who stands at the porch “threatening” to run away. “I MEAN IT THIS TIME! I’M REALLY GONNA RUN AWAY! THEN YOU’LL BE SORRY!” Yes, dear. You’ll just come back when you’re hungry and nobody is paying attention to you.

Troll really fails to appreciate the concept of enthusiastic consent.

Oh that’s right! He was the one who copy pasted dumb misogynist jokes in multiple comments sections.

Yes. All men love lesbians. You are the source of men’s greatest fantasy pillow fights.

This might come as a surprise but there are actually men who regard lesbians as fellow human beings and not objects for bad porn.

Oh joy! Oh rapture! A straw feminist! And from a fictional 90s TV sitcom at that!

By the way, your site sucks.

How insightful and mature of you!

He’s using the phrase “cucumber in my jeans”. I vote troll (my husband votes: “you mean he’s green and lumpy???”).

Viro would go his own way, but his narcissism and immaturity won’t let him go a full ten minutes of the day without screaming “Look at me look at me look at me I need attention! Tell me I’m pretty! Tell me I’m good! Tell me anything just please god keep looking at me!” At anyone he can annoy. So yeah, he’s your standard MGTOW.

Vitro, are you even trying? Either put an actual effort in your try hard or don’t do it.
