You know how sometimes someone will do something so silly and dumb or whatever it may be and you are embarrassed for them. That embarrassment for another person is sort of a weird thing, especially when the person themselves has no idea that they should be embarrassed. LOL.

It's these nitwits that post things that they read from Manosphere or MGTOW websites. These guys say and do things that I literally cringe with embarrassment for them. Take for example talking about a woman's "value" and they start to assign ages to things, for example how a woman has lost her power in the "market" when she is 30.

I'm embarrassed just typing that here, let alone actually going around like some kind of emotionally/mentally stunted parrot vomiting out this kind of silliness.

SMV? Sexual market value...Hit The Wall?
What a man speaketh so he is. You will know them by their words.
(They're always ignorant enough to give themselves away)
Then they ask: What is MGTOW? What is Red Pill? What is the Men's Rights Movement?
When you call them out.
Silly boys.

It is all I can do to refrain from calling them sniveling little bed wetters.

Yeah, and it's especially telling when a new poster woman starts mentioning things like her "sexual market value" that make you go Sometimes you can't tell a person's gender by how they speak online, but other times I think "women don't talk like that or use those words."

It's the relationship they didn't have with their absentee father.

I agree. I'm trying to not pick on the younger men, but IDK, seeing a lot of strange dysfunction with a lot of the younger posters here. I've mentioned this before but my job put me in the company of a lot of men that are younger and I just didn't see this BS in person, hopefully it's just an online thing or the squeaky wheel deal. I guess they could be hiding their views, but people tend to put their guards after a bit and you engage in the typical "water cooler" talk and can get a bead on people's views on some things. I just never saw the woman hate/fear thing like do here.

Agreed. That other thread is probably a hoax cuz someone called out the use of the term "the wall" and it most certainly doesn't sound like something a woman would say about herself or other about other women in general. I foolishly took the OP on face value and tried to give some real advice. I hate wasting my time if someone is just clowning around. School does start soon, thankfully.

Around here it becomes a gathering point for the miserable and hardly reflective of the whole. Also, along those same lines I also believe them to be the same recycled miserable. They post their tales of woe and so fort get banned for trolling or multiple usernames rinse and repeat.

I agree about the recycling, lots of that going on for sure. Finally got rid of our buddy, I don't think he's been back for awhile now, he must have had about 5 or 6 different screennames with all of the coming back he did. He usually gave himself away with posting vids and all the macho chest thumping he couldn't resist doing. LOL

But it's odd, though. If you think relationships are a trap and you want to be single forever, that's fine, then why hang out on a romantic relationship board and act all butthurt (as the kids say) when people don't agree with you and challenge your assumptions? It's a weird kind of internet masochism.

I don't think they're changing any hearts and minds. Nobody who has had a girlfriend or sex is reading their posts thinking, "you know, they're right. Women are greedy and terrible life ruiners. Thanks for the heads up."
