are you (or do you know) a misogynist?

[MissAnne]

Many would describe me to be a misogynist. I used to try to explain to people that I don't hate women. At this point in my life, I don't care anymore. They can think whatever they want.

What I do hate is the fact that women only prefers men who have been castrated. My proof of this is all the magazines for women. If you look at those magazines and calendars very carefully, you will notice that they have photoshopped all the men in there to make them look like they have no genitals. That's what women like to see.

What I hate even more is that all women I've pointed this out to have denied up and down that that's what they would really prefer. If you're going to hate us guys because of our bulge down there, then at least admit it. Don't do this passive aggressive thing. It's annoying!

Here you go again with that bull crap about women not liking cock.

Why don't you people just accept your label?

Calling you a member of the PC Brigade is an easy label rather than calling you an interfering, busybody do-gooder who goes around pontificating and enforcing their ideas onto other people about a third party. You're just the same as those annoying Christians enforcing their dogmas onto other people about other people.

You kind of people are well represented in literature. Oscar Wide occasionally commented on the interfering, sanctimonious Holier-Than-Thou brigade. Dickens caricatured the woman in Bleak House who had a missionary zeal for the children of Africa while ignoring her own. And WS Gilbert's list of 'society offenders' includes the 'enthusiastic idiot' who concerns himself with 'all centuries but this and every country but his own'.

Re: The PC Brigade

Other labels I can think of are 'The Thought Police' or 'The Secular Evangelicals' (because this is a sermon)

...Over the course of your entire life the number of women you will encounter is infinitesimal on such a scale, and as such your cursory 'understanding' of women is negligible. Perhaps you could try looking at the world through a lens broader than the scope of your own 'personal experiences' (which are often subject to confirmation bias).

If an Asian steals the laptop from my bag at uni, do I blame his race? No, I blame the individual for being a selfish, inconsiderate thief. If a few black guys call me a faggot, do I blame their race? No, I blame the individuals for their obnoxious, hateful homophobia. If a woman cuts me off in traffic, do I blame her gender? Again, no, I blame the individual for being an inattentive, absentminded driver.

Misogyny is equal to racism and homophobia in that it is hate born of ignorance and false superiority....

Yes it would, because you'd be foolish enough to assume that one person's behaviour is a representation of an entire demographic. That is what I was referring to when I mentioned trying to view the world through a lens broader than the scope of your own experiences.

But let us not forget: not everyone has the luxury of intelligence to recognise there could be something else outside his or her small community. Let's say there's someone who grows-up relatively uneducated and impoverished and the only interaction he has with $minority is the stererotype of said minority in that environment. Would we fault him or call him racist because he hasn't thought "hmm, maybe there's something different outside this little bubble"? I wouldn't. Now, I'm not saying any of this applies to me. But you, too, must also remember that your statements don't apply to everyone. As I have also prefaced my statements don't apply to all women.

I'm not denying that some stereotypes stem from a source, but you're failing to recognise the possibility of confirmation bias. How often do you hear "I hate gay people, they all act like women". Yes, there are effeminate gay men, but do they represent the entire homosexual demographic? Does that stereotype apply to you? Then why should the 'moody, selfish, manipulative cunt' stereotype apply to all women?

I can be fem at times, so yes, that stereotype would apply to me. But, not all gays. Again, if all that person saw was gays acting like women then I don't lob names at him because he hasn't opened his mind.

And again, my dislike of women isn't for all women for, as you said, I haven't met them all. I've based my general dislike of women from my interactions.

Tomba, I'm thinking you're Giancarlo's younger brother with all his generalisations, Ipso Facto, Reductio ad absurdum, and personal insult.

I'm not talking about nudity. I'm talking about a guy wearing underwear or a thong or speedo. In gay magazines, you can see that the guy is a real guy with a bulge, either erect or not. In magazines for women, they've photoshopped out the bulge so that the guy looks like a damn eunuch.

First of all, the all-mighty bulge you refer to comes from the penis. A eunuch still has a penis, so stop using that word, because he would still have a bulge. Secondly,



Those pictures are from a calendar for women, and um, that is one well endowed eunuch there on the left...
