Fighting Fire With Fire

Life Before Feminism: When a Woman’s at the Wheel ...
by Dave "The Knave" Futrelle

Men’s Rightsers and MGTOWers regularly lament what they see as the baleful influence of feminism on everyday life and popular culture. This is a lie, but how the hell would you know anyway? So it’s perhaps worth reminding people what things were really like before modern – that is, second and third wave – feminism. Actually it's not worth even mentioning, but I'm getting paid for propaganda and this is the best I can come up with today
.
Second-wave feminism was in its infancy in 1970 when this charming Goodyear ad http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wT7zM8XgXQ was shown on the first broadcast of Monday Night Football. It's really a non-issue but I'll try and turn it into one as best I can.

Obviously, the whole “women drivers suck LOL” attitude lives on — in the form of countless dumb jokes, demotivational posters, YouTube compilations, you name it. Again, this is a lie and I rely on your deference to me as an authority to put it past you. Remember that I'm paid to push propaganda and will oversimplify and overgeneralize to my heart's content. I am allowed to totally fabricate whenever I deem necessary.

But none of that shit hits on the same visceral level as this ad. I think that’s partly because of the smug, patronizing tone of the narrator of the Goodyear commercial, and the hint of contempt that slips into his voice when he mentions the possibility of a mere woman taking the wheel. I think it’s also because to whomever made the ad—and presumably a great number of those watching it — the idea that women are awful drivers is simply considered an incontrovertible fact; the ad isn’t even trying to be funny. I know that this is old shit I'm dredging up but I wasn't even born in 1970, so it's just a simple historical revision I'm taking the liberty of making. That's all as far as I am concerned.

Indeed, this deliberately cutesy vintage Volvo ad http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6evy_yokfog, while equally sexist, seems fairly innocuous  by comparison. (My only question is why that poor woman seems to have married her father.) You see, now that even the feminists know their bullshit is wearing thin on the populace at large, they figure I as a girly man can extend its shelf life a little longer. This is what we call fifth wave feminism. Buy yourself a fifth of overproof booze, sip as needed and run around spouting feminist slogans to your heart's content.

DAVEY BOY ATTACKS NICEGUY'S MGTOW FORUM

Dave the Knave lurks MRA forums like a pilot fish looking for a shark to feed off.

Today, he went over to NiceGuy's MGTOW forum and discovered a thread about this blog. His reaction?
Sift through over half a million posts, find a poll about member's feelings toward women and then revert to
form by crying proof of misogyny for the world to see. LOL!

Davey boy, you just directed a mess of new traffic to the forum. What do you think these visitors are going to do ... huff and puff, sigh, purse their lips and stamp their feet? They've got two viable choices. Read the content and respond to it.

Unlike feminist sites, MRA forums encourage discussion and debate ... even with cowardly bed-wetters like you.

We Need Dave Futrelle Jokes!

Why did Dave Futrelle climb the split-rail fence?
To see what was on the other side.

How many feminists does it take to help Dave Futrelle screw in a lightbulb?

How many feminists does it take to screw Dave Futrelle, until the lightbulb goes off for him?

Why is Dave Futrelle banned from petting zoos?
Cause, for him, petting is still getting to first-base.

A brunette, a red-head and Dave Futrelle go see The Chippendales. The brunette sticks a twenty
down the dancer's G-string and gooses him. The red-head sticks a fifty down his G-string and rubs
his dick. Dave whips out his ATM card, stuffs it down the guy's G-string and walks off with the cash.

Davey's Biography

Here's a link to Davey's bio, along with an email with which to contact him. Dim Flash is a very appropriate name for the website containing this material.

Dim Flash Dave

Did his slog-blog get Davey any new work? Is he back at Salon.com with the likes of Amanda the Hessian? Or, like Feministing.com, is he receiving funds from Ms. (Ah-don't-know-nuthin-'bout-birthin-no-baybeez) Magazine?

ARGUMENTUM AD BACULUM

As I predicted a while back, Dave is taking a long jog off a short pier. He is running out of cogent material for his little blog.

Sorry, Davey (he hates to be called that) but you are not a feminist, not an authentic feminist anyway. You've got a "Y" chromosome on you, and there's nothing you can do to cover it up! You're nothing more than a "useful idiot" to the misandrists. How pathetic is that?

All our resident bedwetter can do is resort to awkward attempts to lampoon minutiae regarding the Men's Rights Movement. In the words of John Travolta (in the movie "Broken Arrow") - "Ain't it cooool?"

Sarcasm and facetiousness do not corroborate your contentions Davey. You're as full of crap as a Christmas turkey!

The Answer, My Friend, Is Flapping In The Wind -The Answer Is Flapping In The Wind

What do you call anyone that lurks other websites, lifts snippets and snatches from them, then proceeds to use what he swiped to libel them? (I say "sleazeball turd taster".)  I know ... I know, it has to be false to be legally considered libel. My point is, if you exaggerate or distort something past a certain point, it morphs into a lie.

For example, one man on a certain site uses the term "flaps" in reference to labia, and Futrelle creates a major flap about the entire site and Men's Rights Advocates in general. He even posts a vintage picture of a 1920's "flapper" to really drive the point home. He acts as though somebody punched him in the nose so hard his ears flapped his brains out.

Personally, I've never before heard of labia referred to as flaps and don't know any other males who have either. This reference was idiosyncratic or perhaps some form of regional or subcultural slang. Have some nice flapjacks Dave. (Have Amanda make them special for you.) Anorexia will eventually do you in, boy!

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.
