Jesus, this sickens me.

This woman, and the camerawoman, are laughing while she does this.  But Misandry isn't real....

A distinction without a difference.

So, I followed a link from a blurb on Mensactivism.org, to a GQ Magazine UK article, which criticises another article from the Guardian, which was ostensibly written in concern for today's men and boys.  Sorta convoluted, I know, but it's relevant.

I followed the links, dutifully, and got a bit of a handle on the arguments presented, and came to the realization that this is a great case study in Feminist 'concern' for men, and the Blue Pill criticism the Lamestream Media is capable of mustering.  Not only that, but the holes left in each of their arguments are quite instructive, if one is inclined to believe in the significance of such things.  Since I am inserting myself downstream, I will limit myself to topics 'debated' in the GQ response article for the most part.

Across the Aisle?

So, people tell me that Manosphere types don't do enough 'official' activism.  Not enough outreach.

Well, a local Rape Crisis center has done something that caught my eye, so I called them and asked if they would be interested in an article written, and maybe some contacts.  When they found out I was a 'Mens Activist", they not only said 'yes', but invited me to attend a staff meeting so I could meet the whole staff, and they could ask questions.

So, you have been warned.  There might be a long one coming your way real soon.

Stay tuned.

Looking for legal help setting up a non profit.

This is a general call to any lawyers / qualified people involved in the MRM or otherwise engaged in these issues.  I have decided to set up a non profit in Canada, and am in need of legal advice.  This is not expected to be free of charge, and may lead to permanent legal counsel position.  The only requirement I have is that the lawyer in question is genuinely interested in solving these issues.

I hesitate to give my email out publicly, so if you have a website for your firm, leave it in the comments section here on blogspot, maybe your name, that kind of thing.  I'll get in touch.

I'm serious as a heart attack here, I'm sick of pussyfooting around.  Time to get shit done.

Feminism in two words.

The 'Feminism vs MRAs' thing is as controversial as ever, so I thought I would put into as few words as possible, the reason we oppose feminism directly, but also these underlying definitional words:

Gynocentric Misandry.

Both of those words are 'mis spelled', because few recognize either concept exists, but those are the two basic human traits that have been exploited by Feminism, and those same two traits are what we fight against as a movement, and what men are recoiling from society-wide.

Gynocentric misandry.

That's what it's all about, right there.

Conspiracy Theories

I admit it.  I am an Alex Jones watcher.  Not listener, because no one carries him where I live.  But I watch him on the You Tube.

I find 'conspiracy theories' intriguing, and in some cases more than a little compelling.  I don't know how many other folks in the Manosphere share my guilty pleasure, but I suspect it's a lot.  After all, it's common knowledge that the CIA gave Gloria Steinem the cash to start Ms. Magazine.

The central theme of Alex Jones', and that of other 'Globalist Conspiracies' guys, is that of a group of largely insanely rich folks have decided there are too many people on the planet, and are going about systematically exterminating many of us.  Myself, being a 'connections' guy, have entertained myself looking for connections from his theories, to Feminism and the role it would play in such a scenario.

Why The Manosphere Grows:

I was looking for a good explanation for the Church Ladies, as to why the Manosphere needs to be what it is, and not spend a fucking calorie of energy worrying how others think of us.

As always, I got about a third of the way through, got distracted, (purple cow!) and read Return of Kings for a bit.

And boy am I glad I did.  Because commenter Mark Minter said exactly what I needed to.  And since I would far rather edit than write, here is his comment in the full glory it deserves:

I try, am trying, to get away, to take a break. I mean to. I say "Stop commenting", leave it the fuck alone.

But I can't, even though I want to, because once your paradigm has changed, once you see things through Red Pill, you cannot "not" see them as you now see them.

This is what a feminist looks like.

Rollo explains Zeta Masculinity very well.  Just not in so many words.

Sigma.

SO, I read a post about 'Sigmas' (which, frankly, I've never heard of before, but is apparently a fully-fleged member of the Alpha-Omega manclasses) over at Red Pill Room, which really freaked me out.  Then I followed the link Ian helpfully included to a Vox post on the same subject, and I freaked out some more.

Why?

Well, as I was reading the post I kept saying 'yeah, I do that' over and over (even in the less 'savory' aspects of the personality type).  I chalked it up to 'Horoscopitis' (where desire to see parallels elicits the illusion of parallels), until I got to Vox's list...

1. Look for the guy who is out in the group, is an obvious part of it, but keeps breaking away from it, especially to pursue women. Sigmas are solitary hunters. They don't need the emotional support from their friends to pursue women, and tend to think that their friends only get in the way.  If you see a group of guys, and one of them seems to periodically vanish and return, he could be their Sigma.
2. Pay particular attention to the guy who locks eyes with you, disappears for a while, then later appears unexpectedly at your side or behind you. Sigmas like to take people off-guard.  The guy who smiles and approaches you directly probably isn't a Sigma.  He is more likely the guy who initially makes you feel slightly alarmed and WTF was THAT?
3. If a man seems to be intentionally trying to turn you off or irritate you, he may be a Sigma.  Sigmas relentlessly test and qualify women in order to categorize them.  Of course, he could simply be a jerk. Or a social incompetent. 
4. Does he cut you away from the crowd? Sigmas aren't herd animals and will always prefer a quiet conversation of two to group banter.  If you're looking for a Sigma and you sense the man with whom you're talking is separating you from everyone else, you may be in luck.  Or he may just be a serial killer.
5. Do others look to him for leadership? And does he provide it or does he shy away from it?  If the latter, you may have struck sigmatic gold.
6. Does he make you feel that if you don't take your pants off, he might just go ahead and do it himself without bothering to ask you?  And do you find it worrisome that somehow, that doesn't seem to upset you the way you know it is supposed to? You may have found the type of introvert you seek.
7. Does he engage you in conversation/flirt with you/have sex with you without even asking your name? Probably Sigma.     

Taken in turn:

New World Order?

I admit it...I am an Alex Jones fan.  I think he's got a lot of stuff exactly right, but I wonder how long it will take people to connect the dots....

First, understand you are worthwhile.

One of the very first things a young boy learns, is that his pain, suffering, confusion, fear...etc ad nauseum....is by far less important than damned near anyone else.  Less important than 'Mom's needs', less important than 'sister's needs', even less important than 'random woman on the street's needs'.

From the time we are old enough to understand language, young boys are taught it is 'never OK to hit a girl', while girls are applauded for truly nasty behaviour - which for them, apparently, is 'empowering'.  Young boys are repeatedly told, by nearly every 'authority figure' they come in contact with, that men (especially the white ones) are responsible for all the evil in the world, and have deliberately hurt women and girls for centuries.

And young boys are indoctrinated to accept their lowered status in society...to 'make up for past injustices'.

Every man has similar experiences as a child.  Every man is aware, to at least some extent, that he is forbidden to complain about...or even note...said double standards.  After all, Real Men(tm) don't 'whine'.

Voltaire (by all accounts a pretty smart and influential dude) put it this way:  "To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize."

Sound logic, if you ask me...
