Washington Post: Why Can't We Hate Men?

[SuburbanFarmer]

Some of you guys need better women friends. I don't know any women, even the gay ones, who don't like men. I find the whole concept of hating 1/2 the population to be truly bizarre.

Lucky for us, these man and woman hating asshats are the minority.

I don't hate women.

Let me show you a clip to illustrate what I was saying:



What is your reaction, what would be the reaction of most of the women you know?

Every man here, every.single.one knows that in that situation? We should not back down. We should get our ass kicked, probably by multiple people.

He lost that encounter at 1:30.

He won’t be seeing that woman again, though. Women say what they want, but they’re usually wrong.

Why did you post that? It's four minutes of my life I'll never get back. What would you like me to say about it? Unfunny bit from Louis CK?

You really understand next to 0 about the male perspective.

Ain't that the truth. But, seriously, if you go through life as a privileged class, and you don't ever even have to imagine what it is like to be in the shoes of the other class, then there's really no reason to even imagine it. They have an interest in maintaining their privileges while convincing themselves they are the aggrieved ones. This is the key to soft power: to present yourself as the weak and powerless while you manipulate and influence events to your sanctification. We'd not be any different if nature had evolved our species the other way.

It's just galling at a time where our species has evolved sapience and people are supposedly able to think objectively that so many women are totally blind to it. I really don't believe most women are aware of what they are doing. I honestly don't.

Not a fan of the guy but that was spot on. Jedi hit home with that one. Women do not hold men to the same standard as they hold women, and they expect men to do irrational displays to win their affection.

That woman was doing nothing but staring at disbelief at the asshat kids. Did you want her to jump up and start punching? WTF?

The entire skit was about her change in attitude towards Louis. She couldn't care less about those kids. She knew they wouldn't harm her.

A couple is confronted with a situation that is likely to lead to violence. Is it the woman's role to do nothing but stare in disbelief at the asshat kids?

What is she expected to do?

Though, truthfully, I would smash my chair down that little shit's throat, but that has nothing to do with the woman. That shit would piss me off enough to flip the switch. Not really a problem around here since most of us are armed with at least a knife. It's not worth playing silly games that likely end in a weapons fight.

A lot of middle age men these days are carrying around enough dissappointment and rage to make Joe Pesci look like a clown.

It would flip the switch for most of us.

If you think about it though, Louis navigated those waters in such a way that it ended the least worst way. You're not going to fight five guys and pull out a win. So he lost, but he has kids to look after, he's a single father, so he held down the switch with both hands and did what he had to do for the sake of his kids.

And for that, he would be viewed as less of a man.

I have no idea what your point is. Do you think she should have tried to take the five of them on herself? If Nerd did anything but what Louis did, I'd be pissed. Why would he risk our lives together to prove that a 50 year old man can't take on five kids in their peak physical condition? My primary goal would be to avoid a hospital visit.

What you say you'd want is not what you really think you'd want, and what you think you'd want is not really what you want subconsciously.

This is the secret truth of women.
