Men's Memes: More Hollyweird Crap

More Hollyweird Crap

We all know that no mainstream movie is complete these days without a 'comedic' moment of a man being slapped in the face or kicked in the balls.

Now comes a movie in which seems to integrate all the elements of modern girl-power into one: the woman is a superhero, plus she gets to spend the movie beating up on her ex-boyfriend. This film (called 'My Super Ex-girlfriend') is called a romantic comedy.

Yes! Beating up on men, humiliating them, and emotionally dominating them is sexy! Romantic! Funny!

Just imagine if a movie portrayed a man beating up and controling a woman as being sexy, romantic and funny.

The good thing is that many men are waking up to these double standards. I was researching this movie on www.imdb.com and lots of people had left comments remarking on it.

Re:Video games
The main video game magazines and sites keep crapping on about women gamers. They get them to write articles about how women are all about "enjoying the game". WTF? Why the hell do you think men play it? They come up with some male-bashing crap as to why men

The software companies are saying they need to cater to women more as they are an undeveloped market. Fine, just give them there own games. But no, that's not what they want to do. They want to take games men enjoy and make it female crap.

Leave our games alone.

Turn of the tide: feminists begin to regret

Cosmopolitan (The women's magazine that urges women to use men for sex) Editor Lorraine Candy has a change of mind and now urges women not to have "Soul-less sex":

"We didn't feel ashamed about one-night stands...this, we thought, is what feminism is about."

70s feminist Fay Weldon now says:

"It is the fault of me and my like, who... got it wrong.

So were we wrong, we feminists, setting women free? The results have been devastating – greater than we ever imagined.

We steamed ahead, changing the world with too little caution, and I hope the future will forgive us.

The pendulum has swung too far over. But it may yet swing back again. Societies, thank God, tend to be self-righting."

"Once a man could look forward to starting a family and the dignity that came from being the provider. Forget it. At best as a man you're decorative, look after the kids and earn a bit sometimes; at worst you're a write-off. Women are elbowing the men out. The boys get anxious, the girls swagger. The male suicide rate goes up, female down. Twenty-eight per cent of us now live in single person households - a lonely and unnatural state - and most of the 28 per cent consist of young men. It is strange that it is left to a woman to suggest, in the normal nurturing way, that men start some kind of movement to promote their gender's status and self-esteem - call it masculinism, brotherism, machoism, what you want - and some mark of the success of the feminist movement, that it needs to be done."

60's feminist Doris Lessing now says:

"It is time we began to ask who are these women who continually rubbish men. The most stupid, ill-educated and nasty woman can rubbish the nicest, kindest and most intelligent man and no one protests.

Men seem to be so cowed that they can't fight back, and it is time they did."

An excerpt from an interview with Joan Rivers:

"She's not with the feminists when it comes to matters of the heart. For her, they're to blame for the current parlous state of our relationships, as depicted in these television Shows (Such as Sex in the city) and films. "I saw this coming. You cannot be equal to a man, you cannot make a man feel 'I don't need you' or 'I'll take my sex when I want it'. All these shows are so sad."

Camille Paglia :

"Women have been discouraged from genres such as sculpture that require studio training or expensive materials.

But in philosophy, mathematics, and poetry, the only materials are pen and paper.

Male conspiracy cannot explain ALL female failures.

I am convinced that, even without restrictions, there still would have been no female Pascal, Milton, or Kant.

. . . Even now, with all vocations open, I marvel at the rarity of the woman driven by artistic or intellectual obsession, that self-mutilating derangement of social relationship which, in its alternate forms of crime and ideation, is the disgrace and glory of the human species."
