Cracked, I thought you were better than this; 5 Ways Modern Men are "Trained" to Hate Women

They don't handle Men's Rights well. See here and here.

I find their stance on it very odd because they are usually very well thought out and researched. They tend to back up their claims with relevant studies. But for some reason that doesn't happen when they talk about misandry and men's rights. I love Cracked but this makes me really disgusted with them.

But I think the main thing to note here is that they are a satire site. Nothing more. They don't have to be as well researched as they usually are no matter how much we'd like them to be.

What a nauseating pile of lies. You want to know why men are angry? Make a list of the 10 worst things that can happen to a person. Put anything you want on your list. Any kind of violence, any kind of sickness, any kind of accident, homelessness, murder, assault, suicide, disease, insanity, substance abuse, incarceration, school drop-out, alienation from children, workplace death, whatever. After you make your list, for each item, find out who each item happens more often to: men or women. Then find out who gets most government assistance in that area: men or women.

Feminism is hate. And that is all that it is.

See, every single male can remember the first time, when he was 5 or 6 years old, he showed his penis to a stranger and everybody started freaking the hell out. He can remember the first time he got in trouble for hitting somebody, for peeing in public, for trying to jump off some high object or set something on fire.

What the fuck is this guy on?!

we males are each owed, and will eventually be awarded, a beautiful woman.

Shrek gets Fiona,

Shrek is an example of this phenomenon? Did the author not even watch the movie and note the assorted messages in the film related to this cliche?

Marty McFly gets his dream girl

George, not Marty, and that's a bit of a distortion/simplification over what happened. Marty and George already had their dream girls.

Any man who actually believes any of these:

-men are "owed a woman"

-women are "decoration"

-Think Women Are Conspiring With Our Boners to Ruin Us

-Feel Like Manhood Was Stolen from them at Some Point

Probably isn't a man at all, and still has some growing up to do.

I don't hate women, I'm just bored of them. And that website? "Adverts that hate women"? Probably the few ads that don't portray men as morons.

You seriously thought Cracked was better? Every once and a while there's a gem from them but most is ugh.

Hmm, about what I would expect to hear from someone who presents himself like this.

AnthonyCharlesXavier · 2012-08-03T19:01:38+00:00

This article is a little disturbing to me in some ways more than others. I never really gave this much thought before, but as a girl I can relate to how the media sends a message about men being owed a beautiful woman. In a similar but different experience, I grew up with the general feeling that only an extraordinarily beautiful woman is owed a "hero" and success in life. that you really can't have one without the other. It took many years before I realized this was complete insanity.

Written by a woman.

Or not. Regardless there is no indication of a penis anywhere near that article.

And personally, its like someone has recorded all of those 'unprovable facts' and is regurgitating them to the disgust of all nearby.

Edit: "I don't know what its like to be a woman, I haven't been one in a long time..."

Called it, someone owes me a beer.

Edit2: And damn do I need one after pushing through to read the whole thing. Damn, someone's got some major mental issues. that's some class A misanthrope right there.

Cracked is doing some odd articles lately. They had a pretty anti-gun article last week that left a bad taste in my mouth too. I liked the stuff PWOT brought to the table when they merged/bought out but everything lately has been kind of meh.

It's David Wong. He writes anti male articles every couple of months.

Now let's all forget this article exists. It's decidedly not worth the memory.

SSJAmes · 2012-08-03T18:48:39+00:00

Heh, number 2 is actually not far from the truth.

Bandwagon jumper will jump on bandwagon.
