Topic: Men on Strike: Why men are boycotting marriage, fatherhood, & the American Dream (Read 4245 times)

I think ktttn has lots of Belief Systems (B.S.) that need tending to.

I'm not trying to imply a thing. How's this?

OP updated with new link

I have to wonder why about ktttns avatar. Never read such angry words by a discordian.

Sometimes, sometimes not. Some sexually reproducing species evolve into parthenogenetic species. An example is the gecko Lepidodactylus lugubris.

If you are trying to imply that humans are under some compulsion to maximize their reproduction then I think you are deluding yourself. Have you maxed out your gamete donation options yet? why not?

A lack of sexual reproduction is not, evolutionarily, selected for.

Video is gone and I didn't get to see it. If you are interested in following this meme, google MGTOW.

OP's link is dead.  Shame.

Anyway, onwards to the second link.  The longer one differentiates themselves from another group of human beings, the longer one admits to themselves that they are not human, as they must then define why their existence of being is somehow different from another human's existence, both of which, as far as any one person can perceive, are exactly the same (we eat, we sleep, we think,) and would naturally follow that the one who separates themselves must first assume they are THE humans, or, as we can see from the many existences of various hate groups in the face of one group of sentient being, that being humans, that, in the same way all religion cannot be right, all hate groups cannot be THE humans, for which it assumes that the minority who has chosen to separate themselves from the rest of humanity must be the chosen majority, either through God's fabled word or misinformed/biased reasoning.  This is how the idea of race began: one group of people said "Well our people can't mate with those people because it would never work!  A white and a black cannot mate, just as a cow and a chicken cannot!"  Which made sense, until it happened, and it was shown that a person of race X could mate with a person of race y, and thus, it was proven that there was no such thing as race among humans, for there was only one race: the human race.  The difference is, these people had an excuse: they had no idea what would happen when a white and a black mated, or whoever it was of whichever nations.  We've come a long way since then, and yet racism is still here.  It's incredible.

So relating this to feminism and masculism: the differences between men and women are so negligible when you compare their similarities (we eat, we sleep, we think, we're made of carbon, and a lot of water, we like oxygen, we grow hair and nails and we have most of the same body parts and we like to be entertained and we don't usually like pain and we like to be social, at least a little bit and sometimes a lot, and we also need minor exercise to stay healthy because we like to be healthy ad infinitam) that it's a wonder such self-segregation still exists.  If we've learned anything from Jungian typology, it's that people are going to be people, despite their genders.  If your biggest beef with the opposite gender is "Well, they're all always acting this way or that way", then you're simply hanging around the wrong people, and when you hang around several people who are of the same personalities, then of course you'll adopt a negative attitude against all members of that perceived group of people, whether it's blacks, men, Jews, women, kids, Asians, and grandmas: time and time again we prove that a person cannot be born to hold truths to stereotypes, except for the fact that the tiny person coming out of that woman is probably not a Martian.  But if your biggest beef with the opposite gender is "Well, I don't like that they have a penis/vagina and testicles/ovaries", then tough titty.  Get over yourself: nobody is so important that they should obliterate a made-up sub-category of human kind so they won't be inconvenienced in their own lives.  Feminism is born from a hatred of the idea that men should be the dominant sex, which they are trained to be in many cultures, including America.  But counter-productivity can easily be defined as women considering women and men as two separate groups of humanity, to the extent that each sex is a different race of being (e.g., akin to a dog, or a rabbit, but surely not human), and then wishing to be the dominant sex.  You don't wage war to acquire peace.  You don't pursue equality by drawing a line.

Which leaves the question: "How, then, if this is true, are there still people who believe men are this way, and that women are that way?"  And the answer is simple: we're cultured, from birth onward, to be different, from the way we style our hair to the very clothes we wear.  Boys are expected to be this way, and girls are expected to be that way.  Boys don't cry, girls don't pick their nose: that's what we're told.  But boys cry, and girls pick their noses, so why continue to tell them they're different?  And yet we do it: boys do this and don't do that, and girls are supposed to do this but never that, and they teach their children how boys and girls are supposed to be, on and on and on.  But the point I want to make is as I've said: You don't pursue equality by drawing a line.

Behold, the post of someone who responds only to the blatantly psuedoscientific first paragraph of a not scientific cultural manifesto.
XX/XY is not the point.
You entirely missed the entire point.

As far as impressed goes,
I give no fucks.

I am impresaed though.
I was just trying to show how I'm following your lifegetting advice..

Am I supposed to be impressed that you are hitchhiking to Montana? When I was 21 I hitchhiked from Tunis to Marrakesh, sleeping most nights in the dirt wrapped in a burnoose. So don't try to impress me.

Do I jelly??  What the hell does that mean?

I've noticed women are better at those meningeal jobs and most jobs are meningeal. They are better at most unskilled jobs. Better attention to detail in report writing for a start.

But for the man to stay at home and child raise, that's still very very rare. It's a bad deal all round. Not exactly a boycott, just ignoring the role given.

There are job openings for intructors here...

This can't be real...  

It has to be some sort of Swiftian satire.  This supposed enlightened "womyn" has no understanding of the most basic tenants of biology.  Neither sex is superior or inferior, and both exist for a reason.  Bisexual reproduction confers the great benefits of biodiversity through the process of recombination.  Interestingly the author calls the y chromosome some mutant form of the "X gene" (don't get me started on the concept of calling the X chromosome a gene...).  Therefore men are inferior because they lack a second copy (they already have one, XY) of the X chromosome.  By the authors own logic, "womyn" must be retarded due to polysomy, because they posses an unnecessary copy of "X gene".  The fact they have an excess X chromosome is like trisomy 13, 18 or 21.  After all mother nature has shown us that humans only need one copy of the X chromosome to survive.  Having increased copies of genetic material (and therefore increased gene dosage) leads to the symptoms associated with these disorders. How can a "womyn" survive when she clearly only needs one X chromosome like those evil males?

If you want the answer to the above question though, read about x inactivation.  Fascinating stuff.

True facts.

In 2 hours I will be leaving Texas to hitchhike to the Montana Rainbow Gathering.
Other than that, I got nothin but my edgy theories and this smartphone.
U jelly?

No?

Ok.

ktttn, you should get a life.

The job market is just more women friendly, it's easy for a female to find a job.

I'm irreducibly cismen. I've always said if you're not sure of your gender, take a look. Beyond what you find, you're not going to fool anyone, and what good iwould it be to try? Better to live to the full potential of the role  you're best equipped for.
