I'm pretty sure it's all going into her MA thesis, "Men Who Do Not Bother to Read Profiles and Hit on Women Based Solely on Pictures: A Theoretical Approach."

I'm having such a hard time believing this comes from a woman and not an MRA-type guy. I would bet $5 that this profile was set up by an MRA to show that women are demanding asses, when, in fact, it's full of things that are of interest to MRA (number of sexual partners / purity, excessive beliefs in matching

I'm pretty sure this enterprising young woman just revolutionized methods of obtaining data for an undergrad thesis.

I get the distinct impression that this woman has been on OKCupid for a while, has grown immensely frustrated with the quality of messages and dates and dates that threaten to happen but never do, and has thus decided to just lay it all bare in one massive spew. The better course of action would be to deactivate her

I have to say, while her list is way more effort than I would ever put into an online dating profile, I kind of get it. OkCupid just inundates you with dudes being like "U r hot. Lets fuck? plz" Honestly though, if my experience on OkCupid taught me anything it's that no matter what you state in your profile, dudes

"I am not an abusive guy which means I'm doing the bare minimum for being a decent human being. Reward me with your pussy!"

Real answer: because the easiest way for an insecure man to reinforce his masculinity is by attacking the masculinity of other men. Some of us haven't quite graduated from the animal kingdom yet.

I think it's less competing and more distancing, no-true-scotsman style. By separating themselves from those who commit these offenses, it keeps them from feeling any need or responsibility to do something about it, like call their friends out or analyze their own behavior in a critical way.

Real men consume oxygen and expel carbon dioxide.

I agree, it's a sort of distancing mechanism isn't it? It's the same thing that lets people say "There's no separate category of violence against women", just in case that implies it skews male, with who's perpetrating the violence. So instead it's just random victims (instead of a targeted group, historically

I never understood guys who get mad and say that. Like, who talks to people they have no attraction to. And who is hot enough to talk to them like that?

Just...bro...STOP TALKING! What on earth?? You say "you can put my meat in your mouth" then say SHE'S disrespecting you?? I've never seen such desperation. If she's so hideously fat with alien eyes, why'd you swipe right in the first place? Take your 32k and buy yourself something pretty, broseph. You deserve it after

Actually, no, the larger point is that white males (but not ALL of them!) feel the need to make literally everything about them, to the point that in a discussion like this, which is about the mistreatment of women, ends up getting derailed and becoming about the horrible injustice of blanket statements being used

Except it does. Because just being white and straight means your voice is more respected and your opinions taken more seriously than a gay person, a trans person, or a person of color. Not enough to change the entire face of the culture and end oppression forever, but enough to contribute in some small way to that

Yes, it's definitely ruining your life to have to keep pointing out to people that they're not talking about you personally when they never thought they were in the first place.

About twenty (holy shit) years ago, Duritz and Anniston walked past me on the staircase of Fez (RIP Fez). When he was right next to me I took a deep-but-surreptitious sniff, convinced that those dreads smelled awful (as white boy dreads are wont to do). But no. He and Anniston both smelled like Ivory soap and

Just weighing in to say that I FUCKING LOVE THIS STYLE OF WRITING! FUCK YEAH ROFLCOPTER DUDE!! Critical, sassy, kinda dumb and silly the just the right places. Well done. This is when comedy becomes dangerous because I almost choked on my sandwich trying to not LOL so hard in this nice civilized cafe. But it

He should really stick to bees

I dunno, the fact that he goes after teen stars while they're still underage and all of his ex-girlfriends seem to turn out with substance abuse problems after the fact really tones down whatever tepid physical attraction I might have ever felt for him.

Billy Corgan and Tila Tequila freaked me out more than him with Jessica Simpson. Oh Billy I've loved you since the mid 90s when I was an angsty teen listening to "Mellon Collie" and "Adore" in my three disc stereo system on shuffle, but the 2000s were not kind to you. You made some horrible decisions then.
