On Feminism~
Thursday, 3. July 2008
One of the things I keep coming back to is Chauvinism and Misogyny versus Feminism and Misandry.
I can’t help it. As a student of Life, as an observer of Humanity, i can’t help but study this shit. Having some free time (though it’s at 1:27am, so I can’t call anyone) I did some thinking, some reading, and some serious sit downs with a couple friends and a few cigarettes. Well, maybe more than a few cigarettes. when the old brain starts churning, I tend to smoke and not taste it.
“I feel that ‘man-hating’ is an honorable and viable political act, that the oppressed have a right to class-hatred against the class that is oppressing them.” Robin Morgan.
There’s no logic that can ever be derived from that crap.
A woman I spoke to about the “Feminist Message” that they put out to women told me quite clearly, that the message they’re sending isn’t so much “Let’s be equal with the males” it’s more along the lines of “Let’s employ psychological terrorism on our male counterparts. And to do that, we need to use those same techniques on our fellow women so that we’re all on the same page.”
Even Lifetime, the television station that bills itself as for women, frequently shows movies about insane, irrational women. Women who steal babies. Women who kill pregnant women, rip out their babies, and claim the infants as their own. Women who stalk their ex-husbands. Women who kill their ex-husbands and their ex-husbands’ new wives. Women who can’t have babies, go nuts and shoot elementary school students. Women who are depressed. Women who are depressed and suicidal. Women who are victims.
These are Empowered Women? Role Models? Before you go shitting your rhetoric, think long and hard about this: Sure there’s an opportunity to go out and find honest-to-god feminist ideologies that don’t stomp and trample on men’s rights, we’re far more inclined to prop our feet up and click on the boob tube, so whose message is getting out more?
Women like a good fight but only on their conditions, and those conditions are rarely expressed to their partners. Emotions eventually take over. The novelty of a tough girlfriend wears off. She either expects him to change his ways – her ultimate goal, even though the reformed abuser will bore her to tears — or he will pay the price. A whipped man is a man who garners no respect from his woman, but an aggressive man is a man who will awaken to find his bed engulfed in flames.
Men can’t win. Here’s a tube of AstroGlide. Use it, and save yourself the hassle of a relationship.
But men get off easy. They can go home at the end of the day, forget that real-life women exist, and jerk off into a sock to thoughts of acquiescent whores. I’m a woman, and the hypocrisy displayed by women affects my standing in the world. I can’t avoid them. I can’t ignore them.
Kinda sad when your own gender throws mind games about like this. I’ll touch more on this subject in a second.
Feminism now equates womanhood with motherhood. “Women’s issues” revolve around extended maternity leave and lactation rooms, expanded date rape laws and increased funding for abused women shelters. It’s not about women demonstrating that their skills and talent rival those of men. It’s about milking their victim status, while simultaneously claiming to be equals. Even feminists accept that there are differences between the genders.
I’m a guy, so these privileges they’re clamoring for mean diddly shit to me. If they want ‘em, fuck. I don’t care. as long as it doesn’t infringe on my work, wages, or daily life.
Feel. Nurture. Empathize. Care. Preserve. Yet, the majority of children who are abused or killed felt the sting of mommy’s hand and verbal taunts. The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world, a feminist will proudly proclaim. And it’s true. Men rarely become serial killers because their fathers abandoned them or beat them senseless. They usually become serial killers because Mommy dressed them as girls or made them lie in their urine-soaked sheets for hours as punishment. Statistics show this. An absent or abusive father might cause a man to become a thief or a one-off murderer, but it takes a mommy to make a man twisted.
Now here’s where we step back to that point where I mentioned we’d talk about mind games, psychological terrorism, and feminism. Women have been and always shall be, more social then men. They go to the bathroom in groups, trade sacred family recipes, breast feed children that aren’t theirs, and establish pecking orders. There was one study shown where girls in kindergarten immediately set up a hierarchy amongst themselves; including who was to be excluded. I remember reading where a handful of girls around the age of 4-7 walked into a restaurant and asked the waitress “Can you sit us away from her? We’re not talking to her right now.” and singled out another girl. Guys really don’t do shit like that. Hell, we’re not terribly social.
Women claim that they want equality, but they still want to be coddled. They pout and stomp their feet when their boyfriends take too long to buy a $5000 diamond ring, but they cry out that they “don’t need no man” when their boyfriends refuse to deal with an unexpected pregnancy. Is it any wonder that men don’t know what the fuck women are about? Contrary to what directors of women’s studies programs would have us believe, women are not tools of the patriarchy. Women are the patriarchy. Women are their own worst enemy. They place themselves in positions where they need an authoritative figure to rule them. Their inherent nature makes the patriarchy necessary. They want to join the Army. But they don’t want to be in combat. They want to join the police force. But they don’t want to meet the same standards as men. They want to go to college. But they don’t want it to be too hard. College standards have decreased over the years. At some institutions, a score of 82 is considered an “A-.” This coincides with women becoming the majority on college campuses. Coursework is dumbed up because administrators reason that women are too weak and inferior to grasp difficult material, and college women lap it up. Women have the benefit of attending college, but they also have the benefit of still being looked at as damsels in distress who need a little extra help.
At this point, I’mma remind y’all that the italicized parts (except where noted that come from ) come from a woman friend I talk with on occasion. She’s more inclined to point these things out to her male compatriots than she is to communicate with her feminist friends; there’re those that would simply say that “she’s just trying to get in on Guys good side” and you know what, I’d agree with you. Why not, when the current ‘feminist’ (read: misandric) movement is declaring an outright war against anything with a penis?
Women want it all, but they don’t want to take responsibility for any of it. They want a career. But it can’t be too challenging or harmful to their self-esteem. They want husbands. But they can’t be sensitive or abusive. They want to enter institutions that were previously reserved for men. But they want lower standards. They want kids. But they don’t want to have to care for them exclusively. They want to have sex. But they want the right to claim it was rape if the guys don’t call them in the morning. They want men who will care for their kids. But they won’t let the men care for their kids because they don’t do it properly, and they reserve the right to bitch that the men don’t do anything to help.
Come to think of it, women have no idea what they want.
My ever-intelligent son made mention of this:
male issues left unattended to by a society scrambling to shore up the problems of its majority. Check the fucking census. There are more women than men. This societally enforced sexism is that of a majority against a minority.
This calls to mind that there was a essay about… maybe five or six years back about how serious testicular and prostate cancer were, comparatively speaking versus Breast Cancer, and the fact that while for every one woman that loses a tit to cancer, six men fucking die from those cancers that receive no sponsorship, no commercials, no public education, and little in the way of government funding and awareness.
I’m a guy. I don’t particularly like or even care for ‘Feminists’. Well, unless by ‘Feminist’ you mean ‘extra feminine’, but I don’t think you really mean that. Personally, I’m chauvinistic. Not in the sense where I’m an arrogant in your face asshole, beating you down with my terrible testosterone-powered pants paladin of perpetual pleasure; (haha, think I’ll save that for my own Zimmer) but instead along the lines of clearly delineated roles. In my mind, girls are, well, girly, and guys are, well, guys. I don’t know whether or not it’s a bad thing or even if it’s a good thing, but that’s my own particular perspective. I don’t care if you’re fucking empowered, or if you’ve got a goddamn diamond clitoris. You’re a girl, stand over there and look pretty. Do ‘girl’ things. I don’t mean cook and clean and fucking watch the ballsweat from my fucking drawers, I can do all that shit myself, and have been doing it for the past fucking decade. I mean fucking be a girl. Also, please make with the worship of the Terrible and Mighty sofa-sized sweaty sexual swashbuckler. (fuck, I’m on a roll with the zimmer shit. :3)
My point is we as men and you as women both need to shut the fuck up and maybe take everything back to formula. provided we can operate without grudges
Women carry grudges in their very genes. It’s a genetic imperative to hold a grudge.
we can start to come together and get along. Yin and Yang; alike, but different.
Final words from the women’s side:
As long as men cater to the whims and destructive nature of women, men will continue to bury their rage and become the sissy-boys women don’t really want. If you wish to help the woman in your life, knock out her front teeth. She’ll thank you after you’ve served your time.
