More troll.
Oh please. LavenderBlue just wants to turn this into her penis-hate blog. Aren’t there enough of those?
And your trolly goodness addresses this how?
(Alternatively, eat a whole bag of dicks.)
My best friend is a man. We’ll be celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary in July.
By telling her to wash that sandy vagina out?
Uh, are you suggesting that the only reason to criticize two grown-ass able-bodied men for being unwilling to do their own housework—and expecting their fully-employed, child-rearing female relative to relocate to their neighborhood so she can do their housework for them—must be “penis hate”?
‘Cause if you ask me, it’s not those guys’ penises that are the trouble: it’s their brains, or what passes for such.
Anyway, before levdrakon stomped back in here with sand in his urethra and a sulky pout on his face, I thought I made a potentially interesting point about its being rather sexist and unfair to automatically label guys “losers” on the basis of superficial status markers like jobs and relationships. Any takers?
This is pretty much my opinion as well. I just can’t see men who are sniveling about how all those mean women are picking on them as a credible threat.
Take your penis hate to your favorite femi-blog. LB is full of shit. Not my fault men shun you.
I agree completely. But I might have sand in my prostate or something, so yanno, take it with a grain of salt. Or sand.
“Troll” diagnosis tested and confirmed.
LB jumped in with it in post #22.
She can dish it, she can take it. Or I guess I’m just being a big ol’ man meanie?
Yeah, just because MRAs are mostly counterproductive whiners doesn’t mean that there don’t exist any societal phenomena that are genuinely unfair to men.
Of course, the cure for that unfairness is more feminism, not less. Stereotyped gender expectations are a feminist issue no matter which gender they’re being applied to.
I’ll agree with this. BUT there’s a big difference between being mentally ill and unable to work and being a lazy ass mooching off your parents at nearly 40yo.
I don’t grok much at what a person does for a living, as long as you’re putting in an honest 40hrs a week (or sincerely trying too) you’re alright in my book. That includes 40+ year old men (or women) flipping burgers at McDonald’s.
You’re an idiot. Just like my able bodied brother and my able father and their belief that I should act like my mom and clean up after them without compensation and solely because they are male. I don’t hate the male organ. I have routine and enjoyable contact with one typically at least twice a week.
It’s a valid, mature point, which is probably why levdrakon is now shouting and waving his penis like a three-year-old who wants attention. These MRA guys are losers - I can’t understand why they’re so desperate to fuck women when they just fucking hate them so much - but not everybody with a different set of priorities is a loser.
You go girl! But as long as I’m nitpicking posts for stereotypical gender expectations, here’s another one I don’t like: That women, particularly feminists, somehow have to justify our right to criticize sexism by being in a healthy heterosexual relationship. (Or, for that matter, that men need to be in such a relationship to justify their right to criticize anti-male sexism.)
I think healthy, happy, feminism-positive relationships are terrific. But I don’t think personal experience of them needs to be invoked to validate anyone’s opinions.
Exactly. Thanks, guys. You know what? I miss my brother.

I probably should have kept that last bit of info private.

Nah, it’s the internet, no worries. Everybody here is dirty or crazy or some combination of the two. ![]()
