I’ve never been accused of staring, but I’ve caught myself a few times (hopefully before anyone noticed!) distracted by nice looking boobs/ass/face/etc. (I figure the guy named Chronos should have the answer to my time based questions - didn’t notice that until just before I hit submit:)) Five second rule. If you stare for five seconds or more, your eyes contract boobie cooties. ---

What makes them feminist is that they interact with those women as if the women were, you know, human beings with interesting ideas and valuable skills and opinions that matter.

Back to the object of the OP, for a minute. I can’t quit decide whether \*\*Urbanredneck \*\*merely wallows in oblivious ignorance, or if there is actual determined intent behind it. He rarely returns to respond to requests for clarification, which makes me think it’s more the latter. ---

> [@Shodan](#): > > There are two kinds of heterosexual men - those that look at women’s boobs, and those that lie about looking at women’s boobs. Feminist men tend to fall into the second category. You’re just trolling now. I think you’re just pissed because I call you an asshole whenever appropriate. If you had actually bothered looking at the thread in question, you would have seen countless comments that feminist men do indeed enjoy looking at women. However, we can manage to not slobber while doing do, unlike the person you and only you have jumped in to defend. As per the thread in question, which was quoted here, we’re going with a really low bar for the definition of “feminist.” It appears you also don’t support those basic goals. Thanks for showing your true colors again. ---

> [@actualliberalnotoneofthose](#): > > The thing I most don’t get is the whole posturing seems like an “alpha male” thing, but real alpha men don’t turn into blubbering idiots at the sight of boobs. I feel like screaming this every time it’s implied a man’s manliness is inversely proportional to his ability to hold it together when confronted by cleavage. When I think of the masculine ideal (strong, competent, emotionally controlled, mature), I don’t think of a guy who turns into Scooby Doo when he sees a woman with obvious mammary glands. That guy is a child without any home training. Not a true boss in a position of power and prestige. ---

Nobody’s saying guys can’t look at breasts. Just be discreet about it, and don’t act like, “OMG, BOOBIES!!!” You know, like **Urbanredneck**. ---

I see who the poster is, roll my eyes, scroll. He’s always seemed ignorant in an I-don’-need-no-book-larnin’ mouth-breathing kind of way. Yawn. Yeah, I wish I could yawn and scroll past with an eyeroll. But most of the time it’s an alarming reminder that men like that still exist in this world, and not just in old Tex Avery cartoons. And that these are the type of people who voted for Trump. Fortunately, they these types seem to be aging. During my more cynical times, I daydream about the day that most of them just die out. ---

I see who the poster is, roll my eyes, scroll. He’s always seemed ignorant in an I-don’-need-no-book-larnin’ mouth-breathing kind of way. Yawn. Thinking of “book larnin’”, I had a memorable encounter with **Urbanredneck** in [a thread a couple of years ago](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=770747) where I mentioned that I worked in academia. He immediately asked me how many students “[do] something of a sexual nature to pay for college” and started reminiscing about nude models he’d supposedly known in school. This was probably the most inappropriate question I’ve ever been asked about my work and it was also only tenuously related to the thread (a **Skald** hypothetical about a woman who learns a wealthy friend was secretly paying for her college education), but I said “How should I know?” and figured that would be the end of it. But he _would not let it go_, and kept going on in a rather…fervid…manner about how he was sure it was common for college students to prostitute themselves or appear in pornography. I finally told him quite bluntly that this was creepy and that I was not interested in providing him with wank material, to which he replied: > [@Poor woman's rich friend has been anonymously giving her financial help. Sweet or controlling?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/poor-womans-rich-friend-has-been-anonymously-giving-her-financial-help-sweet-or-controlling/733307/57): > > Oh I’m sure you know plenty and just keep it in your own circle of academics who sit around sipping wine and laughing at your students. > > Students talk. They share. They write papers revealing intimate parts of their lives. You know alot of things. I forgot to mention that this all happened right after I had offered **Urbanredneck** my advice as a university librarian in [a thread he started](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=770658) about helping his son with academic writing. So one day I’m telling him that professors really do care about properly formatted citations and that if his son plans to go to college then learning MLA is important, and literally the next day he starts badgering me about how many of my students are sex trade workers. This experience convinced me that **Urbanredneck** isn’t just an idiot, he’s an idiot and a jerk. I hope that there is someone in his son’s life who is serving as a good role model for appropriate behavior, because he’s obviously not going to learn it from dear ol’ dad. ---
