So over on the MGTOW (Men Going Their Own Way) subreddit, the regulars are discussing the various ways they’re oppressed by a Nike-sponsored women-only nighttime 10k run called “We Own the Night.” Basically, it’s Take Back the Night with running, and Nike.
Well, a guy who calls himself “DegradedSerf” is having none of it. Because lesbianism? And a lack of women in the stage-construction business?
The two things I wanted to point out are the obvious lesbian connotations, there are DJs and dancing and what not until late, women only on a massive scale, and the fact that although the theme is claiming public spaces at night for females, I worked on assembling and deassembling all the stages, lighting, etc. etc. and there were no women working on the whole site.
You know, I hate to tell you this, fella, but there are places where there is lesbian dancing and “what not until late” every single night of the week. Also karaoke, sometimes. Google “lesbian bars.”
So anyway, “We Own the Night” is a sign of the End Times for normal manly men.
If you combine it with the slutwalk phenomenon now women have more rights and privileges than ever before and now a feature of the political and cultural landscape is these mass, semi-sexual, female only (eunuchs sometimes tolerated) demonstrations that public space, (physical and psychological) belongs to women and they intend to make it inimical to males and no expression of masculinity will be tolerated.
DegradedSerf’s lament about the slut walks inspired this little exchange:
Huh. I’ll admit, there are a number of things that sometimes cause me to think I don’t want to live on this planet any more. You know, like genocide, rape as a weapon of war, the millions of people on earth who are living in extreme poverty, that sort of thing.
This guy is driven to existential despair by … women protesting rape.
Women protesting rape = demonizing male sexuality. Isn’t it obvious?
Definitely a problem that needs resolving.
What exactly is the barrier to this plan?
I will happily donate to the cause of sending poor Nicholas to another planet. I’ll even let him pick which one.
Yes, it is obvious. These creeps are rapists.
I’d go on a slutwalk with Varys any day!

Even though he’s kind of an MGTOW

Heh. Usually these guys stick to “Privileges” and don’t outright admit that they’re against women having rights. Nice slip there, kiddo.
Please test the theory by leaving and we can see how great it’ll be without you.
I fully support Nicholas, RecQuery and the rest going off to some uninhabited island (or planet, whatever) and setting up a MGTOW colony for themselves.
How awful that women actually believe they should be able to be in public spaces without being raped and/or assaulted! And, of course, women saying they should be able to be in public spaces without being raped and/or assaulted is exactly the same thing as saying that men and expressions of masculinity will not be tolerated! /sarcasm
Said it before, and I’ll say it again: if everyone who’s ever threatened to “go Galt” would just get off their asses and do so, the world would be an immeasurably better place. The absolute lack of suffering of any kind at their loss or any regret that we pushed these unappreciated angels away would just be the beginning.
Every once in a while, I wonder if we’re being unfair, and miscasting angry statements as what people believe.
Then you see people lamenting that women have rights. And you go “Yep, it’s not just some selection bias for the angry people, they sincerely believe this nonsense.”
I’m concerned that once these manly men learn that there are lesbian bars their heads might asplode.
We’ll see, we’ve already seen what it’s like when men “go their own way” together in a secluded location. It’s called Lord of the Flies. So yeah. That movie was very entertaining.
If they do go their own way, on an island ,can we put restrictions, like no electricity or clothes and having to make their own food and shelter, put TV cameras there and film the complete batsh***edness, that would result.
I sometimes wish we could go live in a colony somewhere just to show the world what things would be like without us. Even if you don’t engage you’re still supporting society by being there.
How true! He would be supporting wider society by taking himself and all of his nasty friends out of it.
They will never go their own way to an isolated colony somewhere. Never. Deep down, they know nobody will miss them and the world will keep turning. They don’t have the courage to live with that.
So, dude is upset that a job he applied for and was paid for is being done by men? Let me count the unfounded assumptions in his post:
-Women couldn’t do the job
-Women didn’t apply to do the job
-Employer would have hired women
And how much do you want to bet that if women HAD been working the job, he’d be bitching that they were taking jobs away from “more qualified” men? (It’s a sucker bet, don’t take it)
DegradedSerf should sit down and shut up.
By eunuchs I think he means trans* women. Wonder what will happen when someone tells him not all trans* people opt for gender reassignment surgery?
Hopefully, his head will explode, literally. What a waste of oxygen he is!
“And there were no women working on the whole site”
Ignoring the fact that this is almost certainly horseshit, I’d like to point out how hilarious it is that he sees this as damning evidence, rather than as evidence of how much further we have to go.
Yes, it must be terrible to walk through a public space and have a group of opposite-gender people make you feel threatened and objectified. I wonder what that feels like.
Groups of women dancing outside after 8 pm sound so much more terrifying than groping, stalking, and wolf whistles.
My guess is that a world without resentful, entitled turd-otters would look something like this:
I initially thought that DegradedSerf was on the event construction crew – which are almost always entirely male still ( although contrary to Reddit comments this woman has set up a stage and it didn’t fall down ). A second reading suggests he was actually doing coat check but is assuming responsibility MRA style for everything other men did. Also the women he worked with were paid to stand around waving their arms and repeating numbers while the men did all the heavy lifting of retrieving bags.
Oh, they’d be sooo pissed if they learned that the original run involved having 10k worth of men, bound and gag, lying on the streets for women to walk all over.
But, you know, we had a hive mind chat through our lizard brains and decided, “No, that’s too on the nose. The mensies would realize what we’re doing.” So we’re just running on a boring pavement.
I really wish these crazy bastards would move to a goddamned un-inhabited island. Or better yet! a planet. Fucking insane misogynists…
It’s so terrible that these poor, poor menz have to deal with us wimmens and feeeemales wanting to be safe when we go out at night just like them! [/sarcasm]
I’m tempted to start a gofundme to get these guys shipped to Uranus.
Oooh… I have an idea. How about we, as a people, set aside an out-of-the-way place for these guyz to have the colony mentioned above. I can tell you what will happen:
We, the women, real men, and children of the world will do just fine. Better than fine, actually. We may actually evolve into a peaceful, creative and enlightened species without the Manosphereians around to fuck it all up.
See, guyz of the Hateful Clan? We neither need nor want you. We women all had a meeting about it and decided we would even pack you clean undies and nice lunches if you will JUST…GO…AWAY!
Bumcheeks. Take two:
They wouldn’t have to go far. They’re already up their own anus.
