One Of The Most Frustrating Things About The Neil Gaiman Situation (and Others Like It) Is People Who

“Society systematically conditioned us to…”

“School never systematically taught us to…”

No, you just lack common sense¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

Thinking about when I asked my mom why humans keep having children when we spend the majority of our lives working—is life just supposed to be work? Is that the point? Are we learning something? Why did you have children? Why is human life so precious when it’s mostly suffering? Why do we keep doing this? And she just stared at me blankly for a long time then said I don’t know I don’t think about things like that I would never ask those questions. Oh ok

What if…what if you rejected female socialization with the same fervor you reject levelheaded women spoonfeeding you Self Preservation for Dummies, Getting Out of the Doormat Mindset 101, and Introduction to Growing a Self Esteem?

The world is filled with different interests promoting their agendas and narratives, and what someone is receptive to says a lot about that person. Women who were hardly susceptible to the so-called “patriarchal brainwashing” exist and they aren’t this way only because they had the pRiviLEge of somehow discovering free pdfs of feminist texts on the World Wide Web. Attributing everything to socialization erases these women’s experiences and diminishes the individual’s agency!

some problems are so humiliating the only solution is to solve them yourself and then continue to never talk about it

I always think it’s very interesting that Aileen Wuornos is consistently said to be one of the most notorious serial killers in history, despite the fact that if she was male, her victim count and murder method would barely be considered notable nevermind one of the worst.

She killed 7 Johns by shooting them in the head, yet she gets put on lists with men who raped, tortured, and killed 30+ people.

“Not every person has the right to be a parent” is a sentiment I feel is widely accepted in leftist circles, referring largely to abusive households. But this doesn’t get taken to condemn surrogacy and egg-donating industries. Like Jesus Christ why do most leftists not care about this flavor of stuff when it financially exploits women, and subjects them to unnecessary harm? All just because it means infertile women and homosexual couples can have a different way to have children to raise? What happened to “having children isn’t a guaranteed right” Of course I know it’s because of misogyny, but good grief.

The myth that women have no stake in enabling rape because it has the potential to affect them needs to die.

Really fucked with me learning that when Michel Foucault first arrived at UC Berkeley his friends tried to warn him not to participate in the local gay bathhouse scene due to the risk of AIDS, but that he did it anyway because he thought that AIDS was just a social construct. And when he inevitably got infected with AIDS as a result of unprotected sex he refused treatment insisting it was a pulmonary infection, and he didn't get diagnosed until his symptoms were so bad that he was forcibly hospitalised.

"AIDS is just a social construct" sounds like the sort of thing you would make up as a parody of the sort of stupid shit a post-modernist would believe. But the most famous post-modernist in history believed it, and ended up dying as a result of that belief. And given how respected he was, other men probably also died as a result of believing what he was saying. I get that they didn't know as much about AIDS in 1983 as we do today, but it been around for a few years already, so one of the supposedly smartest men on the planet should have had enough evidence to be able to overturn the hypothesis that viruses are just social constructs.

I don't believe in the power of fashion and I don't believe in women expressing their sexuality, because it seems to me that whenever women have the choice to 'express themselves', they always choose whoredom, and the tragedy of the commons ensures that if one woman whores herself out in order to advance her own goals, it means the rest of us have to either become our own pimps as well, or simply resign ourselves to being second class citizens.

Call me a puritan or a label me a misogynist, but I don't care about a woman's "human need" to sleep with multiple strange men. To me, it's just as selfish and reckless as men hopping from woman to woman creating children that will end up unloved or abandoned. I'm first and foremost an antinatalist at heart and the "sexual liberation" movement is a major detriment to society and the children that spawn from it. Especially when these men are literally telling you, "I don't care about you or any baby that results from this exchange; I just want to use your body for my pleasure".
