At some point in every man’s life, he has made a miscalculation when a woman is involved. Sometimes these are brushed aside by women, but other times the woman holds a grudge against every man for the miscalculation, and then goes to Twitter or Facebook when they see their chance to dog on men. (Also, you can change the gender pronouns and it still rings true.)
(Oh, and don’t try to bring up rape or anything like that, because this is about normal people and normal actions, not sickos or crazies.)
Yes, I know that me saying this is “bad” and misogynistic, or at least that is what the #YesAllWomen group will think. Well that is too bad for them, because, to put it in woman speak, these are my feelings, and they are just as important and relevant as theirs, so suck it.
Choosing to attack the masculine, because of a psycho loser like Rodger is the lowest form of attack. Should men start a movement every time a woman stalks a man, or cuts off a man’s penis? Should we denigrate women in general because of the actions of a few random crazies? The answer is of course no, but if these attacks against men continue, will there be any other option?
Rodger was a boy, at least mentally, that had issues with finding a woman. He thought he was entitled to a girlfriend, but he also thought he was entitled to be rich. He was just a jackass kid that hated his life, and thought it was everyone’s problem but his. (Isn’t it interesting that only his obsession with women is being brought up?)
From the segments of the Rodger manifesto that I’ve read, I have gleaned that this was a kid that had a skewed view of life. He thought he was entitled to everything, and didn’t want to work at anything. Hell, he thought that spending $700 on lottery tickets was his sure way to wealth and women. He wasn’t willing to work for anything. This was his failing, it was not solely about women. It was his view of the world as a whole. We owed him everything, without him having to do anything.
He actually thought that lots of money gets you affection from a woman. (If that was the case, my wife would have never dated me, let alone marry me.) This is a misunderstanding of the world by a loser, and only that. Don’t blame the masculine gender for that.
