The end (of men) is coming!

Relax, people, human sperm created in a lab doesn't mean guys are becoming obsolete

HEY TRACY -- I SAW THAT SCENARIO ON THE TWILIGHT ZONE !

Between homosexuals spreading their cheer and the emotionally castrating mostly white women who demand their bodies be their own, it is entirely possible that reproduction could diminish or cease. Selflessness is what is required to create meaningful bonds. In this era of ME, ME, ME, that's a far stretch. One old timer said, "There must be something in the drinking water, men are just not up to snuff as they used to be."

Tsk, Kos

Don't listen to her, guys. Remember, you're just paranoid. There's really no conspiracy to worry about. Nada

nice guys HAVE NO HOPE

Not really. Leave this labor camp called the United States and come to the Thirld World. In developing countries, your American education and professional experience is more valued than in America because it is more scarce.

I am living in Central America. My salary is the double than in USA and things are way, way cheaper. I have a home and a status only reserved in USA for rich people. People is nice, friendly and happy. Lifestyle is more relaxed. No Prozac here, not slaving yourself to live. Women are nice, femenine, happy and like nice and responsible guys. And they are slimmer than in America.

You can be a stud or marry one of them. I am passing the stud phase and then I will choose one for marrying. And I don't have to pretend to be an asshole. I am the same "nice guy" than ever. I treat women well, as ladies. I couldn't be an asshole with women (this is against my nature and this is why American women didn't like me).

Of course, BS bunch are going to tell me that Central American women only want me for my money (it is their pathetic shaming tactic when they know that men prefer foreign women, they think that spreading FUD is a replacement for improving themselves).

Not true, I have lived nine years in the past here and I can separate the golddiggers from the good women. And American women also marry money and are far more materialistic than women here.

So leave that country and come to the good life. Nice guys are welcomed in developing countries. You only have to leave your slavery.

I have yet to see anyone respond to two undeniable facts and their consequences

a consistent sexual imbalance in the reproduction of one gender or another will eventually result in a huge gender imbalance in the population

and

the only way for two women to have a child which combines the genetic material of both is to have a female child

Friday, July 10, 2009 10:26 AM

to see the difference displayed you only have to note that

nobody claims that women are or should be banished from social/sexual interaction with men because they complain about them. Could someone explain why, if there is no difference between genders, women feel entitled and capable of imposing such a requirement on men.

Uh oh, some of the men are catching on

to our evil plan, ladies.

You see, one day soon we plan to round up all of the men. Those that pass the test of being sufficiently rich, good looking, and assholeish (because that's what us women like) will be locked in a pod for sperm harvesting. The rest will of course be put in hard labor camps mining for precious stones to make us jewelry or sewing haute couture gowns, until they die. Because girls like diamonds and clothes! The special chosen ones will receive full weekly body waxes, will wear headphones that play nothing but the audio recording of most extreme radical feminist writings turned into verse, be forced to wear stylish pink dress shirts and italian leather shoes, and have their sperm harvested at semi-regular intervals. And not the fun way, with cups and porn but by force with a giant needle!

The women of course, will frolic about, practicing witch craft, with hairy legs and no clothes, impregnating each other with your sperm between the giant lesbian orgies and pillow fights. Seriously, we're all in on the plot, we're just biding our time pretending that we like you so you'll let your guard down. Then one day you'll wake up with a sore, smooth chest, Andrea Dworkin raving in your ears, and your sperm being sucked out.

Technology part is new, the other bit, not so much.

The SKUM Manifesto kinda covered this thought-exercise about 40 years ago, didn't it?

SKUM = "Society for Kutting up Men"

That chick was craaazeee, tho. Even before she shot Warhol. :)

I know that it isn't all one way or another but there is a politically motivated campaign

to deny that there are any differences between the sexual selection issues that face men and women a propaganda campaign which is engaged in for the specific purpose of claiming that all the problems that are caused by the relationships between men and women are due either to innate male inferiority or male refusal (out of either perversity or oppressive intent) to be like women.

Is there really that great a disparity

Dick, I see the 'bad mate' syndrome go both ways. Obviously women or men don't have a monopoly in that department

Don't assume, also, that Charm and Testisterone-induced features are mutually exclusive. They're, um, not

And it's Neila. You're messing up my anagram ;-)

In other words, nice guys HAVE NO HOPE

Yeah, but neither do the assholes really.

Thursday, July 9, 2009 09:17 PM

this goes along with my theory

that women, even AGAINST their better judgment, unconsciously choose the biggest asshole men over 'lesser' men because it helps to ensure brood survival against potential enemies.

In other words, nice guys HAVE NO HOPE.

Thursday, July 9, 2009 08:49 PM

Even YOU don't like assholes, so why would we? BTW, even I can get turned on by real charm. Why, just a couple weeks ago... [ehem]

If men didn't like asshole women, or like them well enough, the population would be much smaller than it is.

the point is nella that men have to be special to be worth anything

a woman just has to be a woman and can have all of the obnoxious characteristics that disqualify men and still have (some)opportunities. I doubt this will ever change, but it is interesting to wonder whether it could vary, somewhat, depending on the situation. As far as altering the gender balance of society it isn't a question of getting rid of men but of women choosing to have female children and in the case of lesbian couples that is the only kind they can have.

In Defense of Women....

I don't see.... maybe I missed it... women here calling for the extermination of men. But we sure do see alot of boys calling for it in the letters section.

Isn't that odd? These "men" come here and stroke themselves while denouncing men, looking for some emotional brownie points from their surrogate mommies here at BS.

I've long said, it isn't women or feminists that men have to worry about in this day an age, its the fake man-boy who calls himself a feminist, who, incapable of actually ever becoming a man, spreads the most virulent misandry imaginable. They, of course, are exempt. They are virtuous, enlightened men- thus disproving the very points they are trying to make about all men. No matter, they go on, sensitive and enlightened, "nice guys"..not like all the rest of us war mongering, violent savages.

They, like feminists, decry the world that men died and suffered to make as best they could against the forces of nature. All the while enjoying the fruits of all those "savage" mens sacrifices and labors. They sit in the comfort of their air conditioned homes, in a free country, drive their cars down the roads and wake up every day safe and sound to sit in front of their computers to write about how horrible those men are who made it all possible to begin with are.

It was the "violent" "horrible" males who fought the savages, hunted the food, built the roads and building, died at sea... it was, and is, those horrible testosterone fueled men who made/make it all possible back when death and pain where the prices nature charged for exploration, food, safety. And so it will always be.

But these man-boys realize, deep down, that they lack the balls for any of it. So they hide behind womens skirts, kissing mommies asses and decrying the very men and testosterone they owe their pathetic lives to. Funny thing is, women see right through these ass kissing, nice guy wusses for what they are.
