All I have to say is: YAAASSSSSSSSSSSSS

I will tolerate no riri slander on this day.

The science actually exists, but it's obvious that you don't care.

Um, in your scenario, the problem is that "men treat women like dirt" by raping, assaulting or killing them. "Women treat men like dirt" by not wanting to have sex with some dude who thinks he is entitled to sex with anyone he decides he wants.

No one asked for your fucking pity. I did not mention my Asperger's to make you feel sorry for me. I'm high-functioning, just like Rodgers was, and I'm telling you, if you're high-functioning the influence it has is minimal compared to other forms. It most definitely isn't a mental disorder in that form. He was lonely

Sorry pal, REJECTING YOU, by itself, is not treating you like dirt. No one owes you anything.

I hear you. Honestly, when someone like the OP shows that they're determined to be ignorant on a topic, my responses pretty quickly stop being for their benefit and start to be directed toward lurkers. In my mind, at least.

The ad hominem fallacy in logic means to attack the person instead of the argument. Calling you ridiculous after dissecting all of the logical flaws in your argument is not an ad hominem. It's a rhetorical flourish. You idiot. (<— see what I did there?)

All they diagnosed him with is Aspergers, which is not a mental illness and definitely doesn't cause ANYTHING like what he did. Would you mind just going away? As a fellow Aspie, I can't read anything else claiming it was because of his "mental illness". Kindly fuck off.

Actually, it's not.

Fuck you, everything about you, and every thought you have ever had.

All of it is horrifying, but this:

What I find so scary about this incident and Elliot's connection to these PUA groups is that what he did is the logical end point of the Nice Guy™ ethos. Nice Guys™ go through life with this sense that their love is unrequited and that they are being under-appreciated, all while never actually indicating to the object

It's not about whether it's "all men" or not. And I'm sympathetic to wanting to defend your gender - I really, truly am.

No, you look at them and declare yourself again the victim in this scenario.

My idea has always been that its the amount of privilege the person has. As in a middle/upper class white man (like Elliot Rogers) has been raised in a society where they can expect to get things easily, be it a good education, a good job, or the expectation of being able to get beautiful women-when they don't get

I posted yesterday in response to Madeline's article that I was crying angry/exhausted tears by the end of it. Definitely in tears by the end of this, but they were horrified/sickened tears. I don't know what to say or do. This physically makes me ill. Exhibits 1 through One Fucking Million demonstrate that this is a

These people sicken me. What gets me is, there is this myth that women just have guys lining up to talk to them. Unless you are extremely attractive, this doesn't happen. And even for attractive girls I know, a lot of the guys trying to talk to them are creeps and aren't at their level. Yet these crazies seem to think

Over and over again, I've seen commenters, bloggers and even a few media types make comments about how much 'better' it would have been if Rodgers had just 'had sex with hookers'. As a sex worker, I can't tell you how appalled this makes me. Please, stop wishing more of these monsters on us. We already deal with (and

This makes me physically sick.

"Elliot Rodger and company aren't the mentally ill outliers that the media (and the NRA) depicts them as. They're much more common than we want them to be. They're capable of being functional members of society."
