I went to PhoneBin--which I hadn't been aware of--and discovered that at least 97% of the exposed body parts posted there seem to be those of all too willing exposers! I understand that one doesn't have any choice when she's the target of an upskirt photo, and does when she's the exhibitionist. But the problem is more complex--and societal: the internet is has eroded the boundary between public and private. The technology invites transgression.
Overwhelmingly the posters to PhoneBin (and its equivalents) seem to be delighting in the transgressive opportunities; very few seem to be complaining about them.
when some situation shows up and it roughly sounds like something they are familiar with, they roll out that tape. No real thinking or additional questioning involved. Only what women say is always KING, even if it is totally wrong.
Why Brightstar says women treat men really bad, or actually I've figured out what's really going on despite his pontifications on the putrification of the female gender. It's because women, and I do remember him whining about some fiancee leaving him or something, treat, or have treated HIM badly.
Most women I have been with have treated me relatively well. I left a few. A few left me.
Though I could marry at any given time, I cannot imagine marrying in this society. It is too far gone, primarily due to the abuses of and ongoing assault against men that is feminism.
My fiancee left because I lost all my money and was thus depressed.
Most women mistreat most men, in a million ways, of which I occasionally point out here and there. Which is why I do not really desire to date women, much less American women, who are the WORST, most offensive women largely due to feminism having trained them to passive aggressively hate any man who is not dancing like a marionette to her every whim and wish.
FUCK THAT. You women don't want to know how men are or what they think? That is the wish fulfilled, you WILL be mistreated by the men around you.
I could date now if I wanted to. I CHOOSE NOT TO.
But there's no mystery there, I can't believe he himself hasn't figured it out. It's because he's pretty much an assboil that needs to be lanced with a sterilized needle, see these assboils are contagious. One girl doesn't worship properly and we're all generalized by ol'man bittermilk, then he takes it out on the poor next sally shmally who gives him a half hour at lunch and he blows it by spewing the same lovable mysogonist drivel, probably while spitting out baked potato parts over a hurried lunch, and he blows it with the next girl. Then it's ALL GIRLS SUCK, right? Grow some manparts B! Just because not all women want to be with you doesn't mean all women suck, it just means YOU probably suck. Think about it.
You can play that tape in your head that I must be some scumbag. Former fiancee STILL wants to get back with me, as of last Sunday. I have been told too many times by women I dated, some for years, that I am the sweetest, nicest guy they have ever been with.
Which is why I say you women do not think, you only plug in these automatic tapes in your head and spew the typical man hating bilge.
Because REALLY, isn't it just SO EASY to dismiss any man or his comments when you can just put him in a FUCKING box?
So, I learn from these things. I used to be the SWEETEST MAN, now I get worse and worse, as PAYBACK for how women continually REFUSE to listen to what I or any man has to say that differs in ANY way from what women want to hear.
If your ears are closed women, I see no reason to 1. treat you decently, 2. respect anything you say either 3. consider anything women do that involves men as being in any way valid.
Sorry, but this is the way women WANT it. They constantly tell me in a million ways THAT MY OPINION DOES NOT MATTER to them. But you can damn well bet that tomorrow they will air their NEXT pretend, imagined, or exaggerated grievance my way as a way to show their continued power over the men around them.
And to tell you the truth, the 'player' way is CORRECT. I mistreat women more and more, and women CLING to me ever more and more, giving me exactly what I need, were I to want to PURSUE IT, which I really do not want to.
YOU women do it to yourselves.
So, Brightstar, let me get this straight...you're upset because you can't walk around in tights, a codpiece, or a skirt without ridicule? And for this, you blame "feminism?"
Well, if you want to strut around in tights and a codpiece, perhaps you consider going to RenFair and doing so...you'd probably be a big hit! :) As far as the flouncy skirt goes, I don't see a problem with you wearing one in public. However, it does violate social norms...I don't think you should get fired for that, or even made fun of..but some people will, just like some people made fun of me for being a goth chick in a preppy high school. And it's not "feminism's" fault. It's just that some people, both men and women, never grew past that stage in high school where they had to punish those of us who were "different" just to feel okay about themselves.
This is one thing I do not consider to be a fault of feminism, but of women at large. If women mock men for what they wear, you can bet the men around the women will get the message and mock the men too. If the men see the women accepting it, not only will the men stop mocking it too, but they might even try on a skirt themselves.
Sad, but true.
Feminists really don't want to control your libido...we just want you to control yourself, okay? If a woman is wearing revealing clothes in a public place, it's okay to look briefly and enjoy, but staring for long periods of time or continuing to look after the woman has made her displeasure at your gaze known makes women think you might be a potential rapist/stalker dude. Even if you are not a rapist/stalker dude, but merely someone who lacks social skills, staring makes you seem creepy. Remember, 1 in 4 of us have been sexually assaulted. The woman you are staring at has either had more than her photo taken by force, or she knows someone who has and doesn't want to be next. You can go on about the "Abuse" of men by women when 1 in 4 men are actually sexually assaulted by women, okay?
Take the 'sex' out of it, which seems to always be on women's minds. Lots of men are assaulted by women, not just physically either.
And 1 in 4 is a severe exaggeration brought about by liberal feminist definitions of rape which, ironically, diminish the less common but very REAL threat of actual rape of women.
Nope, getting shit ass drunk, bedding some asshole, and calling it rape the next day does not count. Sorry. Nope, a guy getting a little randy and out of control and insisting on going on during sex even after you muttered 'no' to him is NOT rape, just a guy who got a bit lost in the moment.
I have known women who actually WERE raped, and they are scarred for a long time. Sad to see.
