bestiality incels men who should not ever be with women ever misogyny

Women only like animals with big dicks because they love getting “horsed,” Incel weirdo hypothesizes

This Horsecel would beg to differ

By David Futrelle

Considering how little they actually ever talk to the, er, “femoids” that they constantly obsess over, it’s kind of remarkable how confident so-called “involuntary celibates” are that they understand the secret desires of women better than women themselves do.

Case in point: A thread on the Incels.me forum today devoted to discussing the proposition that “Women like animals proportionate to how big the animals dick is. Women do not care about small dick animals.”

The OP explained his hypothesis thusly:

MilkTeaPill Recruit - Today at 8:07 PM#1 Think about it you almost never see women care about small dick animals like hamsters. However girls go crazy for dogs and horses. Girls absolutely go crazy for horses because their dick are like at least a foot long. Have you seen the look in a girls eyes when she is with a horse? She is thinking of getting horsed and getting that BHC in her pounding her little human pussy into oblivion.

In a series of followup comments, MilkTeaPill elaborated on one longtime obsession of internet lady haters — the notion that a significant portion of the human female population is having sex with dogs.

YEP every female that chose to get a dog and lives on her own is fucking that dog. And about 60% of girls that have a family dog have done something sexual with the dog.

He did not cite a source for this statistic. In fact, the percentage of women who have sex with animals is probably closer to 2 percent, according to the only survey I was able to find that seemed even vaguely reliable; the same survey suggested that men were more than twice as likely as women to have sex with animals. I would imagine that the percentage of zoophiles who actually let horses penetrate them is a tiny fraction of this, given that it can quite easily kill you.

But MilkTeaPill went on to insist that for many, er, “foids” — the favorite incel term for women — dogs were no longer enough. Be warned that the quotes that follow may spoil your dinner if this hasn’t happened already. 

dog dicks aren’t big enough for foids these days. They need that BHD (Big Horse Dick). 1-2 feet of horse dick pounding their insides. …

They can’t get enough of that multi foot dick stretching out their human pussy. They love it when horses cum liters of horse seed into them. This is literally every foids dream. …

Horse dick is the new standard that is the point I was making. … Soon enough there will be horse get aways were hundreds of foids go to a ranch for a weekend to get HORSED.

Many of MilkTeaPill’s fellow incels thought there was a good deal of merit to this argument.

Self-described AfrikanCel declared that Milk’s post was “High IQ,” and that “[f]oids disproportionately love big penis animals for this reason.”

“I remember one horse girl in class got questioned about stallions and she blushed hard,” wrote someone called HarvesterOfInceldom. “You knew she was fucking it.”

A few of the regulars were skeptical, noting that women often choose cats and rabbits — animals not exactly known for their gargantuan members — as pets. One even pointed to a survey suggesting that women prefer average-sized penises over (figuratively or literally) horse-sized dicks.

But Milk’s defenders had rebuttals. According to AfrikanCel, women love cats because they serve as substitute babies. But someone called Curious0 had what he saw as a better explanation:

They like male horses so they get fucked and female cats to get licked since most (all) women are bisexual.

There is so much wrongness packed into that sentence I think I will just give up and stop right here.

Figure Alan must be pissed about this one.

Ah yes I was indeed. It’s funny though that you post that. I’ve on occasion been tempted to comment about it when we’ve had discussions about tactics, and especially recently with the ‘harassing’ of GOP associates. It brought up a few issues; so perhaps this is as good a time as any to relate.

As you can imagine we were outraged when that bill was passed; but things organised quickly. A list of those who’d voted in favour was complied and disseminated.

Either via groups, or just some individuals acting spontaneously, the MPs who’d voted in favour were contacted and our collective displeasure made clear.

Now for me it was tricky. My local MP voted in favour; but she’s a woman, and I’m more than aware of the shit women get merely for existing on the net.

I sought guidance from the very nice people on the Mammoth Discord as to how to contact and what to say. In the end I just posted something to my MPs Facebook page, linking to a relevant article and saying I thought she was vile.

But of course with a bill saying animals aren’t sentient and can’t feel pain, the protests write themselves. However, there’s that implicit threat in there when you’re posing the (not necessarily rhetorical) question or making statements, as to whether politicians can feel pain.

Most people in the animal rights movement aren’t violent of course; but some of them are. And that must be playing on politicians’ minds; especially in a post Jo Cox era. And to an extent, whether gladly or reluctantly, you’re taking advantage of that.

As it happened the campaign worked. The bill was reversed within 48 hours; with the government acknowledging it had been as a direct result of the furore. Of course they couched it in terms of ‘we listened’ rather than ‘please don’t hurt us’.

As for my MP, well the government posted a very nice video to my Facebook, saying that they loved animals really and it had all been a misunderstanding.

(I did post everything in my own name; if I’m having a go at someone it’s only fair I do it openly)

Seconding kupo on the joy over “magic carpetbag”. Sometimes I hate that I’m not surrounded by English-speaking people, because I can’t use the great things I learn here…

I’m glad everyone liked it because I did just pull it out of my…uh…well, you know. XD

Paradoxical intention, when you said size queen my mind went very, very strange places with the “resident cheeseburger slut”-part of your name. Along the lines of “if it were possible, I wonder if the kind of advertising burger King does would be particularly disappointing”. I need more sleep.

I mean, you’re not wrong? I would absolutely have my way with the Windows 7 burger they had in Japan.

And then I would follow it up with the extra, extra, extra small side of fries from McDonald’s.

Jo | July 9, 2018 at 2:01 am

Drungarios didn’t say that, she said that very few people own stallions.[…]

Ah, thanks for the correction Jo! I’m a city slicker at heart, but even when I lived in a rural area, it only seemed like richer people owned horses. Forgive my ignorance, as that was my bad.

Talonknife | July 9, 2018 at 7:36 am
I know a few size queens that have some horse-related fantasies, but tehy’re just that: fantasies. They’re all furries, but none of them are interested in having sex with actual, non-humanoid horses.

Also, most of them are dudes, not ladies, so make of that what you will.

Speaking as a part-time furry: This.

Katamount | July 9, 2018 at 9:42 am
I was just going to say… yeah, there is a market out there for equine-shaped phalli, but it’s very much in an anthropomorphic context (anthro meaning “human”). Speaking as a furry, any fantasies I might have do require a fair amount of human anatomy that place them squarely in the realm of the fantastic (read: not in reality).

And as much as there are toys that are shaped like the anatomy of any number of beasts fantastical and otherwise, it’s not like that’s restricted to phalli. There are penetrable toys sculpted to depict any number of fantasy creatures as well.

Saaaame. Like, I’m more interested in human-ish creatures with animal characteristics than the other way around, yanno?

There’s actually a really nice orc dildo I want to get from a site that I can’t recall the name of, but they also got a good looking trent…

Hi Gang:

As far as the opening topic? I know it shouldn’t, but the hatred combined with the absolute ignorance of women as anything even approaching human? This really horrified, upset and scared me.

It doesn’t help that I am becoming more aware all of the time about the misogyny that is still so prevalent in even ‘normal’ men. The double standard still firmly in place is one area, women as not fully human is another. I really don’t want to fear half of the human race, and I know there are good men, but this stuff is really scaring me – especially as it builds up to how we treat animals and the planet and each other full stop. Anyway.

@Alan Robertshaw

Kudos to you for helping get the animals as not sentient rolled back. I have never understood this, from the time I was a little girl, granted, I tend to be a bit of an animal empath, but if they don’t have emotions and feelings than we don’t either.

As for this:

Ok, so Trump puts tariffs on China. China retaliates by putting tariffs on US soy; putting US farmers in jeopardy. But China needs soy; so where does it turn to instead…

I am not surprised, in fact I was expecting it based on the posturing and the nonsense beginning with the campaign. What absolutely floors me is that not only the hardline Trump supporters, but many other people are going to interpret this as Trump actually doing something. Well, he is doing something. He is hurting the very people he promised to help even more than they were already hurt. Soy is a huge crop. Farmers are already under attack.

Why, why, can people not see this? This is what is challenging my own reality matrix as another poster mentioned. Things have gotten so bizarre and people believe things that you wouldn’t think they could possibly believe under any circumstances. And the corruption and destruction of the country and the world for the short term benefit of just a few is no longer hidden even a little. I honestly don’t understand how so many people are still blind to it.

Then I remember that the other part of the propaganda machine is keeping everyone’s hatred and entitlement and sense of grievance at the very front of their consciousness. This keeps the divisions in place.

Our eighty year war cycle is coming up – any prognostications on how the belligerents will shake out? Even back in the days of the campaign, I couldn’t see how pissing China off was going to do anyone any good at all. It is like the powers that be are consciously trying to destroy the western empire. I know we have warped into an evil empire just lately, and I know there is the bigger picture view of history, but I don’t really want to live through it or die in it. Not to mention that it is my personal opinion that the next war cycle isn’t going to go well for anyone.

As for sex with animals, I can’t really add anything to what people have already said except in support of the sandpapery cat tongues. I have had many a gentle tussle with loving cats licking my arm or leg in their language of affection. I don’t want to hurt their feelings, but I can only take so much – and that is on arm skin, much less anywhere more delicate and less keratinized.

Then there is the idea of getting cats to consistently do what you want them to do, as opposed to what they want to do. And it isn’t lack of intelligence either. I had a cat once, of the dozens I’ve been privileged to care for in this life, that holds the title of the smartest and most singular cat I’ve ever known. Lifelong cat haters were converted by the charm and intelligence of this cat.

Among other things, Twain, as that was his name, wore an invisible kitty wristwatch that told him when it was food time. If I didn’t hop to with alacrity, he would get on the counter and use both paws to reach in and throw the cans of cat food onto the floor, making a racket that brought the household running and giving me an annoyed look. I won’t bore you with tales of what he would do to wake my son and I before dawn when he got a little peckish and needed opposable thumbs to open the cans – ours. Suffice it to say that this was not the work of a creature with no brains, sentience or emotions. Oh and a creature that was well aware of the emotions of others too. Animals have empathy!

I tried to keep him off the counter to no avail. And I swear, Twain knew exactly what I wanted him to do and just didn’t care to do it. I could see it in the expression on his face. “Yes, I love you and I know you want me to get down, but I don’t want to. I already do a lot of things I wouldn’t just in being a housecat. Count your blessings and get the Fancy Feast,” said Twain.

I will close with a quote from his namesake:

Of all God’s creatures there is only one that cannot be made the slave of the lash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with the cat it would improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat.

Samuel Clemens – Notebook, 1894

@Katamount – I hesitate to mention this given the opening topic, and that I don’t want to give these guys further fuel to their hatred and ridiculousness, but there is a pretty great story in one of Susie Bright’s compilations about sex between a human woman and a centaur. The writer could write too, so the urban fairy tale and dreaminess aspects of the tale are just as strong as the sexy aspects.

Good.

Basically she and Tomi Lahren have been angling for the “who can be a bigger racist attention-grabber” prize for several years and her stupid South African farmer doc is just the latest stunt. What she’s doing in Oz is beyond me.

But no wonder she’s spending so much time out of her own home country given how diverse it is. But even then, when ever somebody talks about how multiculturalism is so evil, I have to ask: what “culture” do they think is so damned different?

I can’t help but think of the one clip from Bromwell High that I actually found funny:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTeHEBlHGyU

Seriously, with everything so damned homogenized in this global, internet-driven society, we all watch the same TV and do the same stuff with our phones day-in, day-out, so everybody might as well like 2Pac, KFC and text messaging.

It’d be nice if the “multiculturalism” dog-whistle was dropped and they just came clean with the racism.

From my family one of the reason for having a cat instead of a dog, is that a dog is much more work.

I actually just remembered something. If certain French advertisements are anything to go by, clearly its the guys that have things for animals rather than the ladies:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BKOC4zaB6I

Why that mountain lion was using Orangina as aftershave, I haven’t the foggiest, but I guess the Orangina marketing folks succeeded because I remember them because of it.

And that wasn’t the only one….

Seriously, they made a whole ad campaign out of this! Sexy animal people using a carbonated orange drink for random shit not related to drinking it! It’s as mind-bendingly nonsensical as it is strangely captivating! B-gah! Can’t wrap… brain… around… marketing… decisions… ARGLEBARGLE–!

A spokesperson for the Department of Home Affairs said Ms Southern’s application was denied because she was ineligible for the ETA.

“For visitors who may hold controversial views, any risk they may pose will be balanced against Australia’s well-established freedom of speech and freedom of beliefs, amongst other relevant considerations,” the spokesperson said.

“The individual has a visa application before the Department which remains under consideration.”

Yeah, it can be scary to finally notice this. To finally see that this is still around, despite the vehement denial of men that it isn’t because they can’t see it.

No one here wants to view humanity as being guilty until proven innocent, but at the end of the day, we have to buckle down and do it for our own safety. It’s shitty, but that’s part of the reason why this blog exists. To warn other people that this is how some men feel comfortable acting. To hold up that mirror, and to show how other people do these terrible things.

The man who runs this blog, and a lot of the men who comment regularly on it, are slowly unlearning all the harmful things that they’ve been taught by society about women. They’ve taken a step towards understanding what we femme-presenting people have to put up with. They help us raise our voices in protest. And they understand that we have to have that fear for survival.

It is hard, but there will be people in your life, I hope, who would take the steps to prove that they’re capable of growing and changing and being a better person, if that makes sense.

Scottish protests have been a great source of inspiration for me personally (“Yer maw was an immigrant, ya great bawbag” is a personal favorite), but I would say anything promoting unity against his bullshit would be fantastic.

We have a campaign here (that might not apply to Londoners, unfortunately) that simply goes “Y’all means all”.

Me too. And I don’t entirely understand why. It isn’t like these folks lack for hatred on any regular Tuesday. Maybe it was the visual of some poor woman being torn apart by a two foot long – well you know.

Even worse after the recent discussion that a) penises don’t vary dramatically in size (at least intraspecies – can’t believe I am adding that caveat) and b) people who like the bepenised (still love that) aren’t that interested in the minute variations. We are actually more interested in the man.

Maybe it is the suggestion of rape worse than rape. Like those gangs in Africa that rape with objects once they finished raping with their penis because the penis can’t do enough damage.

@Katamount

Thank you for the laugh. I needed it. I’m thinking that the Orangina would be sticky on mountain lion fur, but it really does work as an ad. Makes you think that routine drug testing might not be a part of advertising culture doesn’t it?

No kidding the stuff said in this post made me want to go and hide under the bed.

Worse, it isn’t like I have been unaware and this is my big awakening. I am well versed in feminist theory and the like and try to be an astute observer of my world.

This is more subtle than that. This is realizing that men I talk to on the regular don’t really see me and worse a whole list of others. And of course I’ve encountered sexism and chauvinism before of the blatant and subtle varieties. As we all know that is more of a feature than a bug. But the casual – she wasn’t quite a person to us until recently – that I am picking up?

I know about othering but to me I guess I was missing a huge part of it. I understood the othering of black people or gay people, or trans people or Muslim people or whatever group you care to name. I am not arguing that this is a good thing by any means. But I still thought that even for hateful people that the operative concept was still people. Even if it was people who were different than whoever the subjective speaker was. Even if it was people who were hated.

And of course I’ve read, but apparently not understood the writing of any of the twentieth century genocides – and tried to understand without falling into the dehumanization trap myself. People did these things. I am a person. What circumstances could make me behave like this? Be vigilant.

I guess I thought it was rhetoric, not meant to be taken literally. What kind of a naïve moron are you AuntiMame? And mea culpa I guess. How could I have missed this? It is the dehumanization that is so assumed it is invisible that is getting to me. And yes, I know to do something really awful to people you have to dehumanize them to make it ok. It is just so….casual, accepted, so understood as a fact it doesn’t bear mentioning? All I know is that I feel stupid and dirty and hated and hating myself.

@AuntieMameRedux: I get what you mean, and there’s absolutely no need to feel bad about it. I find it’s always a little upsetting, really getting into someone else’s head, and much more so when their worldview is so alien and hateful. That doesn’t make you stupid.

Funnily enough, my own “big awakening” moment came from a Cracked article, of all things. I’d previously understood feminist issues very much in abstract, even economic, sense – as relationships between large, faceless social groups. Then I read this article, called something like “Five ways society teaches men to hate women”. It wasn’t a terribly good article, but it opened my eyes to the personal, visceral backing behind institutional misogyny.

First, thank you. Second I read that article! No kidding, it was one of the things that ultimately led me here in a chain of internet associations after punching ‘why do men hate women?’ Into a search engine as a joke a while back.

It is just the depth of the dehumanization that has me in a spin. And it is people I know. And one of the unpeople is me. I’ll assimilate the information.

Re Southern’s visit to Oz: I cheered in Australian when I read that on the Twitters last night. Of course her fans (and there are a lot of them here), are raging all over the internet about muh freeze peaches, and the end is nigh, and omg Australia is being run by PC police (that last is funny in a horrific way, given our current government’s ongoing lurch towards fascism).

Beware of her supporters on Twitter, btw. They’re almost as feral as Peterson’s. Speaking of Peterson, here he is claiming that a glass of apple cider kept him awake for 25 days:

Ew. I don’t know what’s grosser, the very suggestion of that, this guy’s ignorant need to falsely and absurdly “explain” us women with demands of a false reality, or his apparent obsession with that fantasy.

“Women are all bisexual/all lesbians!”
“Women have sex with horses!”

AKA

“I MUST find an reason, no matter how bats*** crazy or ignorant, to explain why they won’t sleep with me and how the problem IS NOT me!”
