creepy friend zone memes memesplaining men who should not ever be with women ever misogyny nice guys rape culture

Creepiest “Friend Zone” meme I’ve seen in a long time

Wait, what?

And this is why the notion of the “friend zone” is so damn toxic.

The comment below the meme seems pretty accurate to me, though.

both of the examples given in that post are just men trying to use women for sex though. just because the latter is more successful, doesn’t make the attempt any less abhorrent

its not “women using men for friendship”, it’s “men using ‘friendship’ for sexual gain”

Psychological damage?

Since when has the manosphere been concerned about psychological damage?

They’re out to inflict psychological damage on women — and really, really proud when they get the chance to do so. They live to harm women — through name-calling, harassment, forced childbearing, assault, rape, economic inequality, and more.

No sad message against a background of pink hearts will make me forget that.

But what about the guy who makes friends with a woman because he has the ulterior motive of eventually hooking up with HER friends? Who is doing the exploitation there?

OT? I’m not sure, but I’m gonna drop this here:

Dick Coughlan has gone all the way off on Laci “Red Pill” Green. Who, I think, HAS been psychologically damaged by her redpiller boyfriend. (Not that there weren’t hints of her vulnerability to it before; her transphobia comes to mind. Ironic how she’s so “open-minded” toward literal Nazis, but not toward people who don’t identify with their birth-assigned gender…)

Hello, Houston? We have a false equivalence…

It’s the kind of false equivalence that you use as an exercise to teach debate students what the term means for the first time.

It’s just so fucking blatant, that you can’t help but guess that that’s the one that you’re looking for, even with little to no knowledge of what the term is.

But, go figure that TrilbyBros would go so far as to nail themselves to a cross to get pity because Stacey wouldn’t fuck them after they opened the door for her and kinda listened to her a few times and maybe bought her a drink.

Fake meme. Men can’t be psychologically damaged because only females have emotional emotions (mostly hysteria). Duh. Also when you use a girl for sex she is used up i.e. consumed, and the same for guys when you use them up for friends. How can you be psychologically damaged when you have dissipated into heat and energy hello start making sense soon meme maker.

I suppose dismissing the concept of male-female friendship makes more sense if you don’t think of women as people.

No no, it’s not friendship, it’s friends. Don’t use guys for friends. If you know a dude with the complete box set of Friends, don’t pretend to be his buddy just so you can borrow it and break up with him after. That’s really not cool, y’all…

I am feeling so attacked right now

Seems like victim-blaming to me. “I can’t distinguish between romantic interest and platonic friendship and therefore you are deceitful”.

Sigh. Again this is me at 18 or 19.

I need my female friends as well as my male friends. Sometimes more. Like, when I ask all my male buddies if any can help me move some stuff for my mum and they all make weird excuses about having to pick up kids from school or suchlike. Then it’s just handy to have a some loyal woman friends with no children. Especially if one of them is a 6’+ rower and basketball player.
And my girlfriend likes her and thinks she’s fun. (She is!)

So women and men are just not supposed to have anything to do with eachother at all. My head hurts

Uhm, many a deeply conservative culture springs to mind? (Saudia Arabia, Afghanistan et.al.)

Are all hats named after women?

I quite like the idea that there’s an Amelia Pith-Helmet out there somewhere.

What the fuck, Laci. I wish Pervocracy was still going, Cliff wouldn’t stand for this shit.

On the subject of Friends, this sounds like something Ross would have said.

dang, i haven’t been paying attention lately, i had no idea laci turned into an ass. what a shame, some of the stuff she did before seemed ok.

…except for the part where she recommended putting cloves of garlic in your vagina if you have trouble with yeast infections. maybe she was always a little overly credulous.

Venice & Hu’s On First:

I bet this is a self-identified NiceGuy, who thinks “using girls for sex” is what “Chads” do when they have casual hookups or end relationships leaving the girl somewhat emotionally sore. He probably believes in conservative myths about promiscuity being emotionally damaging to women, while he personally would never imagine leaving a woman if one was providing him sex. Women only want companionship, which is fungible, and NiceGuys are so much better than Chads at providing companionship, they have honestly deserved their sex.

Re: Laci Green
What!?!? I’m shocked, SHOCKED, to find that a white feminists turns out to be a White Feminist!?!? And EQUALLY shocked to learn that, met with a severe enough validation differential, a White Feminist is actually a self serving reactionary when the chips are down. I don’t know anything anymore…

Isn’t Dick Coughland is a p.o.s. too though?
His treatment of women hasn’t been stellar, if memory serves.

Amelia’s fierce rivalry with Isabella Panama was the talk of the gossip pages throughout the 1890s!
