Cracked.com's Douche-English Dictionary: Apparently, all MRA's are women hating, homosexual (in a negative way from the context), and possibly racist.

I am a purveyor of Cracked and even I did a double take when reading that part on the MRAs.

SirSkeptic · 2013-06-01T07:44:31+00:00

That site's been going downhill for a while now.

I know this guy is just trying to be funny, but the article it comes from is all directed at why men fail at dating. It turns out we're selfish, childish, socially awkward neckbeards. Who knew?

Truth be told, I don't really care when people are making fun of MRAs. I'm glad they're even talking about MRAs. Negativity is just a form of publicity. This isn't really an example of MRAs being written off. It's an example of men's rights becoming part of the conversation, even it's just the butt of the joke for now.

As a famous womanizer once said, "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."

All publicity is good publicity. I think a lot of guys look up MRA thinking its a big joke or troll group, but then see the FAQ or a few of the top posts and experience that "huh.. you know.. I've always felt this way my whole life about it, I just never could put it in words" feeling.

And some of those okcupid points were fair enough. Guys really know how to say the dumbest shit. Put up a fake hot girl photo and fill in a couple profile details... the cracked article is pretty accurate in that regard.

I've mentioned before in my comments (a couple of weeks ago) that feminists actually hate gay men. I got the usual argumentative response from feminists along the lines of what planet are you on? But articles such as this one tend to make my case.

Feminists don't hate the idea of gay men, just the reality. The problem? We are not emotionally dependent on women. That makes us a liability because we can much more easily see through their bullshit. I just wrote another, more detailed comment along the same lines.

Oh, there's that "if you prefer dating race(s) X, Y, Z you're a racist" thing again.

If I don't date blonds because they're not attractive to me, does that make me hairist?

ChrisHernandez · 2013-05-31T23:51:28+00:00

Check out urbandictionary the feminist brigaded the shit out of a lot of words.

BassCreat0r · 2013-06-01T06:16:06+00:00

Can we get a link to original post from cracked?

forgottensoul · 2013-06-01T22:56:58+00:00

I'm quite tempted to write an article for Cracked now...

drinkthebleach · 2013-06-01T11:27:43+00:00

I didn't know people used gay as an insult anymore. Sad world.

2013-06-01T12:22:09+00:00

I'm done with Cracked. And done with David Wong too... The old Something Awful days were hilarious. Today the whole scene is unbearable.

Angelic_Ringmaster · 2013-06-01T05:59:38+00:00

Cracked.com is mostly meant for comedy. Those are all very exaggerated, and make offense to common phrases.

We should not take this seriously.

AlexReynard · 2013-06-01T09:24:12+00:00

I made a post there describing my disgust at Mr. Rowntree's bigoted, hateful descriptions of MRAs and especially with the idea that people who say things he does not like "are terrible people who deserve to die alone". Now I can't seem to find that comment. Maybe it was a glitch. Maybe it wasn't.

Nomenimion · 2013-06-01T00:35:17+00:00

An odd claim, considering that most hardcore feminists are man-hating lesbians, who turn into racists the second their issues conflict with those of minority men (which is all the time).

iongantas · 2013-06-01T03:43:14+00:00

That's all around pretty crap, as if none of those statements are ever legitimate.

chevalier_d_eon · 2013-06-01T09:32:09+00:00

"If I point out the failures of my competitors, then this might land me more sympathetic sex" - nice try bro.

sskmpd · 2013-06-01T10:29:44+00:00

I really like the points about weight and skin color. Didn't feminists establish that right to preference is an inaliable right that can't be questioned whatsoever?

Purple_Streak · 2013-06-01T14:15:01+00:00

That entire post is garbage, not just the bit about MRA's.

Nomenimion · 2013-06-01T05:29:21+00:00

On a side note, this place has gone really soft! I can't say the slightest negative thing about false accusers, feminists, etc. without getting thumbed down to death by manginas.

WTF!

BalllsackTBaghard · 2013-06-01T09:43:51+00:00

Why they gotta hate on BMW? They aren't expensive or too fast.

robert32907 · 2013-06-01T11:30:21+00:00

This was supposed to be funny? Who wrote that, Rachel Maddow?

dalsgaard · 2013-06-01T11:47:08+00:00

Hey, at least we're not writers for cracked.com. I'll take being a woman-hating homosexual racist over that any day.

hephestust · 2013-05-31T23:57:16+00:00

Considering some of the people in this subreddit, I'm not exactly surprised by that.
