How many men does it take to screw in a light bulb?

TRP: It needs to take at least one man. We certainly can't rely on females to do the task.

TBP: Look at those bitter angry men who refuse to screw in that lightbulb! Look at what they're saying... LOL! They must be bitter, basement-dwelling virgins. Wait... What? Screwing lightbulbs? Fuck you. This is just a parody group. We don't owe you anything.

Anarchists: Why do we even need lightbulbs when we can burn this shitty house down? The light from the flames should suffice. Everything else will naturally fall into place.

Communists: It doesn't matter how many men it took. What matters is that we make things fair from this point on. Every person should take turns touching the lightbulb ever so slightly until it incrementally screws into place.

Fascists: Zero, because the ones that will be tasked to screw in the lightbulbs are subhuman, not counted as men.

Race Realists: That number depends on the race of the men.

Futurists/Technocrats: It should be zero. Lightbulbs should be obsolete by now. It's ridiculous that we need to be "screwing" in lightbulbs in this day and age.

Academics: This question cannot be answered because we don't have the context. We don't know the culture, socioeconomic class, education level... We don't know anything of these men! But if we go by the default assumption that men are equal to women and we assume that all people are equal (both very fair as default assumptions), then going by the estimate that the male to female population of the world is 1.08 males to females... then it should take approximately 0.48 men to screw in a lightbulb on average (by mean) from a global perspective... but this is discounting children and disabled people... We really don't know anything and can't offer anything for now.

Roosh: So I had my stepladder up on the table, these fancy lightbulbs were just waiting to be screwed into the chandelier, 6 at a time...

If you want to hear how I got to this point, be sure to buy my book Screw: lightbulbs around the world, only $16.99 on Amazon.

RP: 1 Alpha, 1 beta if the bulb's past the wall, females too unreliable to consider for task

BP: an amount N where N is equal to the amount of women

MGTOW: the bulb can go screw itself

RPW: i'll ask go my SO while the dough rises

Feminist: only the right man can get the light bulb to consent to making love

Tumblr: trick question... go kill urself :)

PPD: we tried debating your question, but the other side was too obtuse to accept the right answer

I'd love to participate in this, but I'm just not that funny. I'm a woman.

Is this supposed to be in response to the guy asking why TRP isn't more fun ? I suppose it's a solid effort !

RP wannabe: I put the light bulb beside the lamp and it won't screw in. I even got it this super nice pedestal and floral print lampshade ! I've done everything I was told to do and it still won't screw in ! Why won't it give me light ! How do I make the light bulb screw in ?!

RP: Listen, light bulbs are tricky like that so you have to kind of help them along. You've got to be a leader because light bulbs are naturally submissive and won't give you the things you need. Like light. If you pick the light bulb up and screw it in it will turn on. Just make sure you also pretend like you don't care if it turns on because if you smoother it like that it will just break in your hand. Pesky light bulbs only care about themselves.

BP: screws in lightbulb flicks on light "What are those guys doing ?"..." We don't really know, but it's funny."..." Should we tell them?"..." Hell no, this is way more fun !"

That's the best I've got !

Bluepill Man: "I'm complementing it and have already bought it flowers and dinner, why isn't it screwing already?"

Bluepill Woman/White Knight: "The screwing behaviours of sockets are mysterious and unpredictable, so keep buying it dinner and paying it complements and if it's meant to screw, it will, but don't ever think it owes you anything"

RedPill: One alpha to stare down the lightbulb until it lubricates and screws itself in.

Bluepill: The term "screwing in a light bulb" is inherently misogynist and shows that light bulbs are a function of a patriarchal system, stop raping lightbulbs.

RPW: I'll let my man screw it in while I give him a BJ.

WOC: What does it matter the white man cut off my electricity anyway.

How many men does it take to screw in a light bulb? Two, but tiny

Feminists need something to crusade against.

No. It would be really nice if sexism didn't exist anymore and we could work on other things.

A bunch of fun to be had? Really?

I view RP as I view any other racist group. I don't hate them, but I don't think it's a laughing matter either.

Let's tell the NAACP to make jokes with the local white supremacy chapter. That won't go over so well, will it?

Bigotry isn't funny.

This was a fun post, actually laughed at some of the jokes on both sides.
