I've seen many threads where a bunch of my fellow males gather around the campfire, tear at raw bloody steaks, and advocate the most outlandish theories about how to meet and communicate with women. Usually a mixture of Pick Up Artist BS, Ladder Theoretical formalized misogyny, a bit of folk misogyny, an endless procession of generalizations about women, and a few good pieces of advice result. Inevitably, a woman enters the thread and says something like "This is insane. Have you ever even met a woman?"

Now's your chance. Pop their bubbles, point out the logical fallacies in statements such as "all girls care about is their status," tell them how women really react to the "cocky and funny" they think they should be. This way, when you see a particularly egregious claim, you can link to this thread before tearing the guy a new one.

You know you want to.

I hate the double standard; if she doesn't have sex she's a frigid prude. If she does have sex she's a slut.

(Not specific to this board- this double standard is global)

Women do this too. They just have a different venue and foodstuff.

There's nothing to say, really.

Until you accept the opposite sex as complete human beings rather than bigoted stereotypes you make up,
you'll never have a successful relationship.

End of.

I've known some closeted misandrists, so that goes for women too. Women can be just as bad as men.

The_Face_of_Boo: Heh. You say that now, but wait until I manage to be even more offensive.

It may be tough, though. Today, my girlfriend bought me an Iain Banks book to cheer me up, against my wishes.

Me: Now I'm in your debt!
Her: No, you cooked me dinner the other day so I was in your debt. Now we're even.
Me: I will avenge this terrible injustice of debt slavery with lots of cunnilingus and pasta.
Her: Sounds good.

I cannot tell if this is an act of chivalry or chauvinism.

^ I've known misogynists who are in relationships and treat their girlfriends like crap and less than human beings.

I am not advocating this type of attitude though.

Hence why what I said indicted neither sex specifically.

Most women are not masochists.

Most women are not sadists either but I've definitely known a few.
