thread for contemplating the serious issues raised by the Men's Rights movement

oh, so as long as i've personally experienced being mugged at gunpoint by a black man, it's okay to talk about how black ppl are always mugging you. NOT ALL BLACK PPL. #yesallwhites

cant groan loud enough @ mordy

Jesus Mordy.

no, it's cool, we're just talking about real lived experience so it's okay

u might get more of what you seek at the washington post op-ed page, dude

you all realize this is just about Mordy trying to get someone kicked off of ILX again, right

I love the idea that Mordy just keeps hitting F5 on the "no boys" thread looking for things to be pissy about.

I think I'll go down to the synagogue on the corner tonight and smh at all the people davening while getting offended that they don't think I'm one of God's chosen.

trust me, the things i've heard in the orthodox community about gentiles goes way beyond "not God's chosen."

A specific person? Because baiting someone (especially with this amateur hour bullshit) until they leave/get kicked off a website is particularly atrocious behavior.

xp can't he just go troll her on Twitter or does she have him blocked?

xxp I live in a community where little kids wearing yarmulkes and tzitzit stare at the goyim (i.e., me) like they're zoo animals. I'm well aware.

oh ffs, DJP has no idea what motivates me. he's just speculating.

hey bro just man up

Mordy what statement in that thread actually offended you as a man?

Why are you yelling, Mordy? Stop being so sensitive!

guess what - ppl have often told me to stop yelling when i was just speaking sternly to them. it's a gender-pervasive issue that ppl often mishear criticism in a louder voice than it was actually made. women have even told me to stop yelling when i wasn't actually yelling.

gender-pervasive? gender-spanning. or whatever.

women have even told me to stop yelling when i wasn't actually yelling

It's because they're too polite to shut say shut the fuck up.

Oh well, since someone has told you to stop yelling when you weren't yelling, women in the "no boys" thread are definitely misandrist saying that every man is terrible.

That makes perfect sense.

yes, i think taking universal human behavior and ascribing it to a particular gender is sexist

carl a. I think u need to calm down

hey phil, can we maybe have a discussion w/out ur worthless snarks every other post?

Is it because I said to punch men in the dick when they accuse women of yelling when they aren't yelling? Because I definitely meant that women should always punch every man they meet in the dick all the time, definitely, no exceptions, no questions asked. 24/7 dickpunching.

xp

You're asking for it, Phil D.

Is there room in your thinking to acknowledge that women experience this from men more than men experience it from anybody else?

Based on the fact that women are telling you this is what happens to them.

xxp I wouldn't get my hopes up, frankly, since you're being kind of a dumbshit here.

you know ilx turned into mordy's troll zone/abyssal primal scream therapy appointment so gradually i didn't even notice.

it's certainly possible but i think you have no idea who experiences it more commonly. you only have access to your own experience. xxp

just remember that mordy is a boardgame playing stoner

Whereas you have access to so much experience that you can say for sure what is more common? xp

And actually, I have access to any experience that other women share about it, such as on the no boys allowed thread. You have access to that experience, too.

no, but i can tell you that i've experienced the same thing

Black Person: "I always get followed around in every store I shop in."
Mordy: "I was once followed around in a store too. It's not a race thing."

I don't know. This is getting kind of boring.

Mordy, you should go outside and get some fresh air, try to look at this a little more rationally instead of just getting upset and taking something that is in no way shape or form directed at you so personally.

Mordy: "I was also once wrongfully stopped by the police. There's no profiling, police just make mistakes."

once? i've had this experience hundreds of times! being told not to yell is a recurring feature in my life.

my parents taught me that bigotry is wrong even when directed from the powerless against the powerful.

Mordy, you should go outside and get some fresh air, try to look at this a little more rationally instead of just getting upset and taking something that is in no way shape or form directed at you so personally.

I hope this is a joke right and you didn't just tell me to look at this rationally and not get so upset?

because if it's not a joke, then that's my point

Wow, you don't have much of a sense of humor about this do you?

The only charitable guess here is that it's possible to develop an Ultra Bad Vibes w33d strain and that Mordy accidentally got some of it. Otherwise, smdh.

Sometimes you've just got to respect a poster for uniting ILX like this.

idgi, if your point is that these put-downs are just as natural when directed from a woman to a man, then yes, i agree? you think no one has ever told me to get a sense of humor about something before? only women have experienced that particular repression of their feelings + emotions?

I respect him for proving that "Flag Post" is bullshit.

maybe you have a loud voice mordy.

i do have a loud voice

Mordy, my point is that you're full of shit and I've seen this argument out of you before and I know actually attempting to discuss it with you goes nowhere and trolling you is getting boring and I've got work to do.

i've spent many years practicing lowering + modulating it bc of the feedback i've gotten from my normal speaking voice.

women have even told me to stop yelling when i wasn't actually yelling.

um...

yes, stevie. duh.

my point is very simple - don't talk about men in a way that would bother you if you heard men using it to talk about women. the only person being maligned + degraded for expressing their opinion here is me. i haven't accused you of trolling, or said you're full of shit. if you really can't discuss this respectfully consider that it's because you recognize on some level that you're wrong.
