Socket Puppet Central:

Dave, "D", Kave ... these are among the loyal enthusiastic followers of Man Boobz, ready to write lengthy comments that denounce MRA's in a New York nanosecond. Then there are the commentators that tapped the keyboard a few times and came up with a hodge-podge of random letters and numbers as their identification. Next come the quick, one-syllable monickers; the ubiquitous Joe and Johnny or Sal - you know, those ubiquitous Italian-american feminists!

The comments section on Man Boobz reads like the banter at a Pajama Party in which the punchbowl has been spiked, and the water pipe is being passed around and around. More chips? Where are the dips? Posting comments of course!

Dave is the master sock puppet, writing his own answers to his own articles. He gets occasional help from Amanda Marcotte and her so-called "Team Members" - Melissa McEwan, Pam Spaulding, Jill, and Samhita, to name a few. It's a put-up job all the way.
