The Men Going Their Own Way subreddit has become a fertile breeding ground for some of the Internet’s most delightfully unhinged misogynistic rants.
But lately it’s been outdoing itself. And so today I would like to present to you a 2-for-1 MGTOW special, not one but two unhinged misogynistic rants, each with its own post devoted to it, both from the very same MGTOW subreddit thread.
First, we have a dire warning from a MGTOW scientist, who presents his highly scientific theory that women — sorry, females — will soon drive our species extinct, because they don’t understand how cars work. Or something.
Honestly, it’s a little confusing. Let’s try to work our way through it.
“Females will lead to Extinction and I am not talking about climate change,” a newly minted Redditor called Colmaxhoffmann declares.
I am scientist that has studied the future of species and human sustainability for years.
HIM IS SCIENTIST.
My conclusion is that we will go extinct if we continue to allow females to take control of our world.
The reason is quite simple: since the dawn of time males have needed to please females to breed. This has become unsustainable as their demands have become increasing technology based.
FEMALE NEED IPHONE IF MAN WANT BREED.
THEREFORE NEED OIL.
Technologies that burn oil a non-renewable resource: oil. Oil has become the dominant means of providing the energy for all other forms of energy and technology.
FEMALE NEED LOTS OIL.
Oil though is non renewable. It also has an energy cost to extract. The deeper the oil the more energy used. In 1900 it took 1 barrel of oil costing $1 to extract 100 barrels. … Now having exhausted the oil fields we get a ratio of 7:1. It is predicted by 2046 this will be 1:1 making it from then on unprofitable to extract. By then there will also be a massive fall in quality of the oil. This means that oil will cease to be viable.
NO OIL MAKE FEMALE SAD.
People believe by then we will have found substitutes for oil. Unfortunately so far not one has proved to be portable, safe, cheap to access/produce … Static energy requires can be met by renewable energy and nuclear power for a time but eventually these will be unable to replicated or repaired as oil is the very basis of making such technology viable … .
ALL THIS TALK OF OIL MAKE FEMALE HUNGRY
Food sources will be quickly impacted as food is transported by plane, ship and articulated lorries all of which rely on cheap fuel to be profitable.
IF NO FOOD CAN FEMALE HAVE LIPSTICK?
The demands of post-war (ww2) females will cease to be practical. They will no longer be able to titillate their desires with decorative jewelry or lipsticks since the markets will be running on an emergency basis.
LIPSTICK IS EMERGENCY!
As hyperinflation takes hold money will devalue. Women will be forced to resort to their baser occupations since it will be better to become a whore than starve to death.
IF NO LIPSTICK HOW FEMALE CAN BE PRETTY WHORE LIKE IN PRETTY WOMAN?
Cars will be a thing of the past … Society and civilization will simply disintegrate.
Women will find that males are required for protection and hunting.
CAN FEMALE EAT DEAD PEOPLE BODY? FEMALE SECRETLY WANT EAT DEAD PEOPLE BODY.
(In some case1s scavenging on dead bodies will be required).
AWW YISSSS
All of this must happen because humans live under a female misapprehension due to a lack of scientists amongst them that men will solve these problems. They thus vote in people who have not a single clue that oil which raise a global population from a few billion to 7 billion and perhaps by 2050 25 billion is unsustainable.
FEMALE BEG DIFFER. POLL SHOW FEMALE MORE BETTER LIKE ENERGY CONSERVATION THAN MALE.
Most women don’t know how a car works. They don’t know that 80% of the fuel it burns is lost in heat and friction. This ignorance has contaminated the male world because males are now subservient to females. Consider Donald J Trump.
FEMALE NOT UNDERSTAND WHERE TRUMP COME FROM ALL OF SUDDEN.
He lives to enjoy women and the sex they provide. All else is just a means to gain more females. His entire life has been enslaved by the desire to breed. This desire whilst being natural has diverted men from seeing the future threat that the loss of oil creates.
FEMALE PRETTY SURE OTHER FEMALE NOT FORCE TRUMP SPEND MONEY ON FANCY CRAP.
FEMALE NOT IMPRESSED MGTOW SCIENTIST ARGUMENT. ALSO NOT REALLY BELIEVE MGTOW IS SCIENTIST.
Stay tuned for the second half of today’s MGTOW Two-fer, tentatively titled “Females are breeding with f***y weak men at the behest of corrupt elites.”
EDIT: PART TWO IS HERE!!!!!1!
THIS is the kind of sh*t I live for. Thank you David, you are a genius. 🙂
Scientists that I find more credible than this guy:

Speaking of bad science and the idjits who love it, David, have you heard about Trump’s plans for NASA?
https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2016/nov/22/nasa-earth-donald-trump-eliminate-climate-change-research
I don’t know any scientists who study “the future of species”. You can’t study something that hasn’t happened yet — you can make predictions and test them as events unfold, but that’s something different.
I also have to ask how the human species survived prior to the 19th century, when oil began to come into use, or the 18th, when coal was the energy source of choice. We seem to have done just fine, sorta*, for a hundred thousand years.
*OK, life was a bit brutish and brief, but you can’t blame that on the absence of cars.
That’s a funny way of saying “He’s an incestuous paedophilic serial rapist.”
Lindsayirene: You didn’t go for the obvious one I see:

I (male) know more about how a nuclear reactor works than about how my car does, but if need be I could learn. I learned and trained on nuclear reactors alongside a number of women so I’m confident they could too.
I’d summarize the article as
“You got misogyny in my peak oil apocalypse fantasy!”
“Well YOU got peak oil apocalypse fantasy in my misogyny!”
They really just can’t believe that women enjoy sex, can they?
Where did he get his doctorate? University of Assfaxia school of Mansciences?
It’s so creepy how their elaborate apocalyptic fantasies always involve women being forced into survival sex. Every time with them.
Ick.
@PZ Myers
OhmygoditsyouImahugefaneeeeewouldyoupleasesignmyarm –
Okay, more seriously. What category of dumb science does that even fall in ? Tell me, Mr MGTOW-Species-Future-Studying-Scientist, how are cars the one indicator of “civilization” ? Am I a barbarian for consciously refusing to drive for safety reasons ? What about trains ? Are trains civilization-able ? What about motorbikes ? Are bikers uncivilized ? Please tell me all the science. ALL OF IT.
@David
Glad to see you’re still keeping an eye on that part of the fever swamps ! I won’t lie, I kinda missed these posts.
I hope we get a MGTOW troll. Maybe they could entertain us with tales of how David’s post is awfully ableist for mocking Mr. Sciencey McFutureSpecies’ screed.
“No woman has ever enjoyed having sex with me. Therefore, women do not enjoy sex. SCIENCE.”
Didnt the science documentary Mad Max Fury Road prove that women are actually best suited to restore post apocalyptic peak oil societies to life?
I like the part where a lack of shipping leads to a lack of food.
Now, while some places (Dubai…) are not sustainable, there are a whole lot of regions in the world where local farming is still possible.
We just need to keep them, and not drive cars over them.
@LindsayIrene
And then you’ve got PUA science : “I’ve never enjoyed sex. Therefore, women suck at sex. SCIENCE YO.”
Wait, I thought the denizens of the manosphere spent their free time fantasizing about the peak oil apocalypse because they’d finally have the chance to prove what awesome manly men they all are. I thought the deal was the post-apocalyptic world would we a perfect patriarchy where every true manly man would be an alpha over a whole harem of sexy broads or something. Sigh. Get your stories straight, fellas.
I just wanted to throw out here that in Chimpanzees and now increasingly Gorillas, scientists are observing that the female of the species is the one most often responsible for innovation and passing on new knowledge to the kids.
From mother chimps teaching their youngsters new and more effecient methods to hunt for termites to mother gorillas teaching their young how to disarm poacher’s traps, it’s a thing.
now there’s a big difference between humans and the other great apes, it’s just that an actual mother chimpanzee seems to know more about science than Professor Doctor Bizarro here.
Well, given half of doctors are women, this jackass can suck my stethoscope when the oil apocalypse comes. Baser occupations, my ass.
I also love how when people fake being scientists they are somehow “scientists”. I’ve never heard somebody talk about themselves as a scientist when they talk about their field of study. If this guy does have a science degree I’m willing to be it’s a Bsc in Comp Sci or something equally irrelevant to the topic at hand.
But seriously guys, I’m a clinician-scientists, and stars actually twinkle because of the absence of FEEEEMALE pheromones. That’s why when you go on a camping trip with your buddies, you see lots of stars, but when you come home to your definitely real academic appointment in the city you can’t see much anymore. Science.
Hey, P.Z. M.!! welcome to the Alternate Universe!! David brings us daily reports here on A LOT of stuff you didn’t know could be… real!!
@ V.P.
In the immortal words of astronaut Mark Watney, he “scienced the shit out of it”
I’m still wondering how a post-oil society is going to be so confusing that people forget how to breed.
Also, where does that “25 billion people in 34 more years” come from?
And finally, how does the lack of scientists… among women… what the hell?
It’s a hard concept to grasp, I know, but scientists who live on planet Earth are by definition scientists among women. Except for the handful in Antarctica, maybe.
Also, I don’t need a car, I ride horses. You can go ahead and lament being unable to drive your car, but I (and disproportionate number of Females) still have this vital skill. Have fun with the skills to repair a car you have no fuel for, no I can’t treat your infection, sorry you can’t buy my horse, bye bye fucker, I’ve got people to help. Feel free to continue sad wanking.
@Flora
LOL!
And MY scientific theory – which is far more scientiferrific than ANYONE’S! – is that FEEEMALES HAVE COOTIES AND ARE STINKYFACES!! BECAUSE MOAR SCIENCE!!
@Flora
Is it okay if you’re now my favorite person, and this my favorite sentence ?
Omg, let me fangirl a little bit…. eeeeeee!
Ok. Done now (pz’s blog is mainly responsible for me deconverting from catholocism… digression… it was his tone that did it more than anything. Being told straight up that my beliefs were bullshit and based on bullshit was way more helpful than anything else. That’s why I don’t believe in coddling people who hold racist, sexist beliefs, because anything other than outright and straightforward rejection is tacit complicity.)
I love (read:hate) when fucking men blame lack of women scientists, or lack of women in STEM fields on women. I fucking tried, y’all. Since I was a little girl I wanted to be an entomologist. Seriously. My dream job. I was told my whole life I can achieve anything I put my mind to. That was a lie, because when I went to graduate school for my M.S., I all of a sudden was required to put up with sexual advances from my advisor if I wanted to graduate. And apparently I also had to endure sexual harassment, violence, and rape from a postdoc in my department. Lol, ok. Nobody believed me when I told them, my ‘friends’ alternatively blamed me, thought I was exaggerating, thought I was using my body for special attention, etc.
Whatever. I graduated and thought by going to another institution for my Ph.D. would mean a fresh start. Nope. The combination of a committee member expecting me to sleep with him, him coercing me into his hotel room at conferences and workshops, him insinuating that I’ll never get a job or grant money if I don’t make him happy; with yet another postdoc who stalked me; with my male advisor turning a blind eye and giving preferential treatment to my male labmates; with my female advisor being sympathetic but telling me that I just have to deal with it; with never knowing if the men who spoke with me at conferences were actually interested in my research or were going to give me their hotel key… I fucking had a mental breakdown, tried to commit suicide, ended up institutionalized, and now. Now I’m a phd dropout sporadically employed shut in. All I ever wanted was to be an entomologist.
But they wonder why women aren’t in stem. Hey guys, ya know what? Its not because women aren’t fucking trying. It’s because no matter where we are, no matter what we are doing, we are not treated like peers to be respected, but like ornamental fuck toys.
I just want to be a human being.
Sorry for the rant. It’s been 4 years since I dropped out, and I still cry all the time, and I’ve never shared this info outside my close circle…
Sweet fancy moses.
So apparently the inability to intuitively understand geometric and exponential growth isn’t actually due to the fact that we evolved to understand linear and (marginally) polynomial phenomena as hunting and gathering primates in forests.
Nope! SCIENCE apparently thinks that’s bullshit. What SCIENCE really says is that men can’t control their raging boners, and evil womz exploit this to their evil, selfish, world-destroying advantage. Therefore men lose their natural ability to understand globe-spanning abstract problems intuitively, because they are helpless under the un-scientific, self-adsorbed and probably-really-nasty-anyways feemale.
Thanks for your input, colmaxhoffman! You sure are the sciencest guy what I ever met!
@PZ Myers, just wanted to say hello as well, nice to see you comment, and wanted to thank you for your blog! Have followed it for a decade now, and it’s always been a bright point of my day. Clenched tentacle salute!
