Can someone mansplain this thread for me? I'm cuntfused.

I got confused and thought mansplaining was manscaping, and how trimming pubes or facial hair was gender shaming men.

Post by: Rufus on May 23, 2016, 04:45:48 PM: I mean, yeah, I can see mansplaining being misused to dismiss anything someone is saying, but the concept isn't entirely without merit.

Also, hasn't he stepped in similar shit numerous times?

Remember when he was complaining about being lonely after selling off Minecraft because he didn't have employees who had to be nice to him?

He's basically a much richer and still fat Tyler Malka.

Hell, didn't some employee's comment on that and say "well, if you had told us that... :doge"

So does Notch though. But he's a fat Swedish nerd, so no surprise there.

I read they turned on him when the company was sold and none of the employees who had been there fixing his shitty game for a year or two got any share of the profit.

Don't show gratitude to the people who helped build your company and continuously complain about being absurdly wealthy while indulging in the most conspicuous consumption possible brehs (outbidding Jay Z and Beyoncé for most expensive Beverly Hills home ever sold, spending 100k a night in Vegas).

Then he's surprised when his wife realises he's a narcissistic fat idiot and bails. lmao. the schadenfreude is real.

Post by: Kara on May 25, 2016, 10:05:36 PM: Today I read the phrase "mainsplaining MAMIL," which felt oddly redundant (the second M in MAMIL stands for man) even though I know not all mainsplainers are MAMILs nor are all MAMILs mainsplainers.

Ah, the joys of neologisms.

Post by: Rufus on May 26, 2016, 09:37:07 AM: "Mamil or MAMIL (an acronym standing for "middle-aged man in lycra".) is a middle aged man who rides an expensive racing bicycle for leisure, wearing professional style body-hugging bicycle jerseys and bicycle shorts."

Post by: Kara on May 29, 2016, 12:21:42 PM: In my former life as an escort, I would arrive at hotels and restaurants about thirty minutes early to assess my date from a safe distance. Even better when we'd arrange to meet in a crowded bar and I could observe undetected at close range. How does he engage with or speak of women? When a man chooses the word "female" as opposed to "woman,"my [sic] instincts are on high alert.

Post by: T234 on May 29, 2016, 06:02:29 PM: A dude once said at his own party that I was mansplaining. I said I didn't know what he was talking about. He said for me to "check my privilege". I told him that all I said was that men can be raped by women, and that I knew somebody who was an unwilling father because of that fact. He spit in my face.

I Charles-Barkleyed his ass through his own glass window. He lived on the second floor. It went as well as you'd expect. I walked down to his landing/crash site and told him he had 24 hours to leave town. He did.

I still dunno what mansplaining means.

Post by: headwalk on May 29, 2016, 08:10:20 PM: have a close mate who was always a bit effette. proper flaming homo to be honest but without the sexuality to go with it. loved glitter and unicorns but not cock.

anyway he was always good for a laugh, liked to push peoples buttons. if someone was being a proper bloke and saying well blokey things he'd start flirting with them and whatever just to set them off.

anyway a year and a bit ago he moved to vancouver and got in with the progressively progressive feminist set and sent me a video of his first ever stand up. 15 minutes of laying into the patriarchy and wishing death upon MRAs or probably MRAs (men who spread their legs when they sit down on public transport) to a jeering crowd.

no real point to this story, but it left me cold and dejected. like there's a dormant seed of fanaticism in everyone and the only thing preventing it is people around you to call you a dickhead when required.

Seriously though - there's always some asshat who has to do something dumb and try to explain something dumb like : "what a Sega Saturn is". To her credit she just plays dumb and let's them waste their time before deploying her toxins from which they usually never recover.
