There's this book

about fucking

and the writing

is ridiculous

in a kind of banal way

that becomes amazing

given the context

that literally millions of people are reading and talking about it

yeah I haven't read it but I posted a youtube to a comedy skit with gilbert godfrey reading parts of it aloud like an audiobook and it was absolutely hilarious. The writing itself is pretty hilarious but he makes it so much better.

Thats the only thing with gilbert godfrey I've ever actually liked. Whoever decided to use him to do that is brilliant.

CLIT-OR-IOUS

I think it's hilarious that Farren started this topic due to his faux concern for women, and it ended with him practically having a nervous breakdown out of anger as he tries to destroy the only actual feminist on the site.

I'm done with this place though, atleast for awhile.
There's an English saying that goes: if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. You seem to have some kind of problem with the fact that people sometimes disagree with you. Your little speech was a completely absurd reaction, totally out of proportion, and it makes me think you just can't stand being disagreed with or being in a discussion at all. And when someone pushes back and challenges you, your reaction is to try as hard as possible to hurt someone. You did it at the start with your stupid misogynistic jokes to punish women for being so stupid to buy that book (you're such a great feminist), and you did it just now when you exploded against Vellfire. That's not how you conduct yourself when you're over the age of 11.

If that makes you "done with this place", so be it.

nah dude its not got shit to do about heat. this place has been mostly feminist for a very long time. which I honestly didn't ever have a problem with and pretty much gained knowledge from.

like I said you're boring as hell, you suck the life out of this place. your attitude is detrimental to any kind of discussion about this shit and if theres any kind of discussion about women at all you swarm all over it with your oppressive way of presenting your opinions. any other viewpoint is "destructive towards women" and they don't give fuckall in your eyes because you don't see eye to eye. how many different people have you done this to? four now? five?


Yeah I'm probably gonna leave for awhile. Its not because I'm upset or got upset I'm just tired of this shit. Theres pretty much nothing to gain from this place anymore. No more discussion. no more new media to talk about. Very rarely is there even more media from anyone here. If you actually got any new people to come here you'd just run them off with shit like this.

Just gonna keep truckin' on and hatin women fuck I might start a he man woman hatin club cus I'm such a mysogynist pig

have fun btw talking to vell when you two are the only ones left in this place

I'm going to make fun of sheeple for doing stupid shit I don't care what gender they are what color they are what sex they have a preference to

If I have to sit there and say mysogynist ass shit to get someone to realize something is mysogynist I'll damn well do it. btw an older woman who was reading the book thought they were funny as shit but that doesn't matter because she's a brainwashed product of an oppresive society says some condescending bullshit you found on the internet

Also ban my account so can't come back here too. I'd honestly rather spend more of my time around dumbass people they're much easier to get along with.

Its annoying in the first place and the fact that she uses her womanhood to devalue the opinions of others and persistantly force condescending arguments on everyone else because they've got a penis and they're priveledged is even worse.

woah nice transphobia (not ever penis haver is a man idiot)

Actually we ran off a really good new member when we had to have a fuckin several page discussion on why it wasn't okay to say the word fag.  Guess what, that member was on my side on that.

excuse me but just because you consider yourself to be a feminist doesn't mean that everybody has to agree with you about everything. it also doesn't mean you get a free pass because "we're on the same side".

like I said you're boring as hell, you suck the life out of this place. your attitude is detrimental to any kind of discussion about this shit and if theres any kind of discussion about women at all you swarm all over it with your oppressive way of presenting your opinions.
I'm sorry you think that way, but that's just not true. before your breakdown I made two replies in this topic, both of which weren't even about feminism in particular, but about the usefulness of social movements in general. they weren't even aimed at you.
and you spent like 20 pages having a good, proper discussion with vellfire in another topic. so don't tell me people don't have a proper attitude around here. I really think you just don't like being disagreed with. you don't like being told that certain things can be considered sexist or wrong by other people. it's not something people say to HURT YOU, but to hopefully try and foster some more understanding and empathy.

One point though is that it is draining turning every discussion into the same debate.

is there a way we can get around this without having to argue about feminism in every topic. maybe do it over pm or something. im not saying its not important but otherwise so many topics will just turn into the same thing. cause its mostly males in a lol gaming community so they are probably often going to say things wrong/misogynist or whatever that need to be addressed but at the same time we dont want to ruin every topic either. just saying

sorry, but what was this topic going to be?  farren is the one who framed it in the context of WOMEN and then posted some misogynist jokes and i called him out on it.  there was no where else for it to go.  it wasn't even a topic anyway, it was farren just pretending to be worried about misogyny while perpetuating it himself.  there wasn't much of a discussion to be had based on that.

last time i checked most of our threads aren't about feminism.  it doesn't even come up.  even ones i post in.  so why is it that every time i call someone out on misogyny suddenly every thread is "turning into one about feminism"?  it wouldn't be a discussion if people would just recognize when they're being misogynistic instead of arguing about how their sexist jokes are just "ironic" as if that wasn't equally as bad and doing the same things.  these arguments are just the dying gasps of misogyny clinging to these forums, sorry if they're troubling you but they aren't as frequent as you seem to think they are.  maybe they just get on your nerves in particular or something and make you think they're everywhere.  the thing is, taking this to PM would do nothing.  farren's not going to realize or admit that his jokes were sexist as fuck and that they weren't acceptable.  but, other people lurking in this thread might.  that's why it's important to NOT take this shit to PM.

Yeah this one was definitely predetermined to go down this path.

I'm not around enough to have a subjective view on it so I'll believe you that it probably is just the two topics I've seen.

Farren you are being dumb though. Getting all furious cause someone calls you out then saying all of the membership is the same, which is blatantly untrue. I think everyone has disagreed with each other a million times that's why it's a forum for discussion.

the fact that this is a trend should reveal something to us!
