Careful, or the berners will hurl their feces at you for not embracing their planless messiah

I’ve got a friend who is a cancer researcher and every time I see her I like to condescendingly (and moronically) remind her that if cancer gets cured people will still have strokes. I think she’s starting to get my point...

Why does it matter if the rudeness is intentional? Making yourself comfortable at the expense of those around you isn’t any less shitty if it’s done out of selfishness rather than malice.

THIS. Women also feel more physically comfortable with our legs apart. We’re not biologically predisposed to keep our legs together, we’ve just been conditioned that sitting with legs spread is a wanton display. It’s kind of a breathtaking example of the power of socialization to override our own physical comfort.

It sure is more comfortable to sprawl all over the place. Thankfully most adults can manage some discomfort.

I’m 5'8" and sitting with my legs together makes my hips hurt too, except I’ve been socialized to do it since I was a baby so I’ve learned to accept it as normal. Suck it up and deal so long as you share space with other people. You want to air your balls, buy a car.

I heard a similar argument this scientist is attempting to make but instead used the shoulder to hip width difference to imply it was a *balance* issue. I.e. it’s hard for an triangle to balance on it’s tip.

The odds of a false report of sexual assault are what, two percent or less

I don’t remember anything specific but I think that case was the first time I ever really noticed the MRA-style anger and resentment. It was pretty eye opening for me. And it’s only getting worse.

If feminism is killing you, dude (not you, the pea-brained MRA’er), then it’s doing nature a favor.

It’s like how after Elliot Rodgers people were saying it was too bad no women had just taken pity on him and dated him. It did not occur to them that women might have avoided him because he was giving off a mass-murderer vibe.

And George Sodini before him. That one provoked a lot of commentary from MRAs/PUAs about how the case “proved” that feminism was literally killing people (which I more or less expected) and a lot of hand wringing from ostensibly liberal men about how it just showed the need for women to stop being so stingy with their…

It’s like all the people who sympathized with Elliot Rodgers. Even the ones who said they didn’t agree with how far he went, they understood his anger and resentment. Like, what the actual fuck? These people consider women to be subhuman and then get pissed when those people reject them.

It’s amazing how they never see the correlation. “I’m oppressed because none of these stuck-up feminazi bitches will fuck me! And Jennifer Lawrence is a fat, ugly whore who I wouldn’t fuck with someone else’s dick!”

When I was a sophomore in high school I was bullied by a group of guys in one of my classes because I was fat. The teacher’s response was to ask me if I would change to another class period. When I said “Now why would I be changing classes when I’m not doing anything wrong?”, his response was that he couldn’t have all…

Yep. I’m thinking it’s a guy who never spoke to her in high school yet got angry because she never noticed him. He feels like he gets to reject her now because “tee hee she got fat!”

Isn’t that funny? We’re monsters, fat and unfuckable yet men fuck us all the time.

DICK MONSTERS

Used to? They still die. It was criminal when they let that 11 year old in Uruguay give birth. She could’ve died, she was tiny.
