More inspiring news from the Men Going Their Own Way subreddit: One brave man has taken a stand for male freedom by turning down a job because he would have had to report to a woman. With thick-rimmed glasses, to boot.
Iamlikethewindbaby’s comrades in Going Their Own Way know just how he feels!
![xienxui 27 points 15 hours ago Every female boss I've ever had was a terrible micromanager, who's micromanaging destroyed productivity and bred resentment, and then they'd say things like "well since I'm a woman I have to work twice as hard to be considered half as good as a man". No sweety, you're just a bitch, and bad at your job - because you're a woman, yes, but that's besides the point. permalinkembedsavereportgive goldreply [–]aanarchist 3 points 3 hours ago seriously though it's so annoying how many women wonder why no one respects them. it's seems like she has to work harder because her baseline ability to get something done is so decidedly below an average males.](https://i0.wp.com/www.wehuntedthemammoth.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/twice.png?ssl=1)
Women and their vaginas, amirite fellas?
And what about those women who are going their own way? Sorry, I mean, those nasty old spinsters who never married because no man would have them?
And boy, those gals really hate us MGTOWs, huh?
Yeah, that’s right. You’re getting constantly fired because you’re so principled. Not because you’re an arrogant, hostile jerkwad who hates women.
Happen_On_A_Ciggy even agrees with the OP about those evil, scary … glasses!
But leave it to the lovely Ovendice — weren’t we just talking about him the other day? — to show up with a giant wall-o-text that cuts to the heart of the problem of women bosses, or even co-workers.
And that, of course, is the decorating. So, so much decorating.
Oh, and of course all those time-wasting false accusations.
Boy, it sure seems weird that women managers are always out when he gets in touch to set up sales meetings. I mean, what’s with that!?
It’s so weird. Whenever he arrives somewhere, it’s like all the women have just left!
MGTOWs! Although I’m a dude, I think I can speak for all women when I say that they really have no problem whatsoever with you guys going your own way — Â so long as wherever you go, it’s somewhere where they aren’t.
I’ll be at the Calgary Comic Expo,glad to hear that this guy won’t be involved with it.
I think it should be ‘a sphincter’.
In other news, DC comics still chock full of asshole enablers.
Sexual harassers in upper management, Part too many to mention.
Not-so-dear Douchebags,
You know that #BanBossy thing you hate so much? You. You are the reason it exists. Because five’ll-getcha-ten schmillion it’s not that your female bosses “micromanage” you more, but that you come in not respecting them for being women, so you a) ignore their directives and then b) resent them for correcting you. The very same behavior strikes you as “normal management” when it comes from men and “micromanagement” when it comes from women.
You know… funny thing.
In the overall modern workspace, where everything is now tenuous, and careers within one FIELD, let alone a single company are nearly non-existent any more… I have actually grown to appreciate micromanagers.
If you wear as many hats as I do… you actually start liking managers that get involved with the people they are supposed to be managing… instead of what happens most times, which is that they sit on their ass and do absolutely nothing.
Aha, I knew my poor eyesight was good for something!
I wonder how “think rimmed” my glasses need to be to be asshole repellent though?
Memo to self: Make next pair of glasses cat-eyes with thick frames. Because nothing upsets an asshole better than a visually-impaired woman looking both pretty AND clever (and being both, of course!)
A trilby. Or a notallmen. Those are my contributions…
Also, having had my share of asshole bosses (in retail, they were ALL assholes), I can definitively state that it is NOT a gender-specific thing, it’s a BOSS thing.
(Although in these guys’ case, it’s an asshole-projecting-again thing, for sure.)
That’s a hell of a one sentence screed.
First, his use of “feeeeemale” is somehow more creepy and unpleasant than usual.
Next, his sexist assholery has apparently been the subject of numerous meetings. He claims that “more than half the time” it’s a false accusation, which means multiple times it been a true accusation and he did in fact say offensive, completely unprofessional things at his work place.
This is a guy who claims to work in sales, natch.
All of my managers on my current job are women. They’re all really nice and considerate. The last man I worked for was a condescending ass who decided it would be jolly good fun to make fun of my to his fellow managers on my first day of the job.
So, maybe, just maybe these fuckwits are wrong. But how could that POSSIBLY be?
My contribution would be : sment. A cross between scent and smell.
Or perhaps a “smodor of assholes”?
@Isidore13: I too wear glasses that are thick rimmed but with sparkly leopard patterns on them. I don’t think those two things cancel each other out. At least not in MGTOW world. I think in their ‘verse, you can’t wear glasses at all . (Or at least that’s where the goalposts would shift, should the subject ever come up.)
Anyone have any good stories about terrible male managers they’ve had? I’ve had a few who were fired in disgrace for various and myriad transgressions, one who was shut down and one abusive dill weed who was arrested
@Teapotkid. Seriously, if you think you’re being sent directly to voice mail at 2pm on a Wednesday because that person is actually “not in the office” or “away from their desk” you can’t have been in sales very long. Or be very good at it.
And, what *gasp* would he think if it was “he isn’t in” or “he isn’t at his desk”? Probably race to Reddit to post how awesome it was that a MAN was out doing alpha male shit instead of skipping work to cry over bon-bons.
@lkeke35, I suspect you’re right.
When I was working as a babysitter for a church, taking care of kids from newborn to 9 all at once, we were creating a brand new guidebook for parents, and the entire church staff was working together but of course it was the responsibility of the nursery staff to write the new policy. We were in a big meeting to discuss it and we came to a disagreement about if young children (3-5) can be taught to advocate for themselves when it comes to food allergies, and I said they could, with a decade of experience taking care of kids that age and my immediate supervisor backing me up.
The choir director, a man 20 years my senior but entirely lacking in early childcare experience, disagreed vehemently, almost angrily. He was not taken to task for talking to us, two 20-something women, like children, and they moved on agreeing with *him*. I am to this day mad at myself for not advocating more strenuously, but this was the turning point for me for feminism and everything.
What a dumb piece of donkey shit. “I can totally tell this lady is going to be a bitch by the glasses she wears”. Oh yeah? I can totally tell that you’re a fucking nitwit by the fact that you call yourself a MGTOW.
Really confusing reasons for not accepting a job. God, these men must be really scared. I’m sure their are a lot of bitchy vindictive male bosses, this is not a gender thing. There is a lot of hate for micromanagement.
So the women are ‘always out’. Maybe they just don’t wanna talk to you. Thought of that?
Ciggy’s comment….
Wtf?!!
He is ‘triggered’ because his boss is wearing glasses he’s only seen on a school mistress dominatrix?!! Do these idiots lives just revolve around pornography?!!!
Fun fact: the Reddit MGTOW forum has a subreddit called MGTOWBNATTAW (but not allowed to talk about women), which started out as a joke. There are only a handful of posts there.
What more proof do you need that MGTOW forums are nothing but complaining about women and just being a-holes while doing so?
Feeeeeemale….makes me think of the Ferengi in DS9.
@Virgin Mary
Yes, I do believe their lives revolve around pornography, as well as getting revenge for real or imaginary slights caused by women.
I think they also like getting off on their own hatred waaay too much.
@epsilon
They must really hate their mothers.
They don’t need porn, they’re clearly busy masturbating their metaphorical hateboners instead.
A manager at my last job was fired in a flaming train wreck after he stole hundreds of dollars worth of product, drove recklessly in a vehicle representing the company and came close to striking pedestrians and other employees, and was so lazy other employees would have to stay extra hours to pick up his slack. He would make gross comments to the female employees and got fired for telling a underage teenage new hire that they should “do an Eiffel Tower sometime” and told her to look it up when she had no idea what he was talking about. She called her mom, who came down to the store to yell at him personally. Hated that job, but that was the best day ever.
I vote that a collection of a-holes should be known as a cuckold. Fits perfectly with the subject at hand, doesn’t it?
A friend recounts a salesman in his large corporation discovering his colleague in engineering had accidentally left her blouse unbuttoned. So, while she’s talking to the client, he undoes her bra.
He was immediately escorted out, thankfully.
