Achilles said...: Did he stick his hand down some woman's pants while they were taking a picture? Worse! He ogled some women and made a joke about birth control!

There are two groups of women right now. A bunch of evil shrews trying to tear the country apart and the vast majority of women who are going to suffer because men will stop talking or associating with women because of this.; 3/7/18, 3:03 PM
Nonapod said...: Weird times. Being a good leftist male operating in all the correct circles no longer completely indemnifies you from consequences for your awful behavior toward women.; 3/7/18, 3:08 PM
Bay Area Guy said...: The theoretical physicist wanted to touch some non-theoretical bosoms - but the singular did not ensue.

As an aside, how hard is it (no pun intended) to meet a gal, impress the gal, date the gal and have sex with the gal? It seems awful challenging these days for some folks.; 3/7/18, 3:12 PM

I Have Misplaced My Pants said...: telling an employee at ASU, where he is a tenured professor, that he was going to buy her birth control so she didn’t inconvenience him with maternity leave

I guess the Victorians were right ~ women are far too fragile and delicate to participate in the workplace.; 3/7/18, 3:23 PM

And the women who are aware of the grinding halt that will come to scientific advancement when TPTB A. insist that women who are not able to perform at an advanced level are nonetheless given high positions in research and academic fields and B. continually target and neutralize our best minds over this trivial bullshit.; 3/7/18, 3:26 PM

gspencer said...: Reminds me of a Henny Youngman zipper, "A doctor gave a man six months to live. The man said that he couldn't pay his bill at the moment, so he gave him another six months."

I guess the Doomsday Clock guy wanted to get a few more quickies in, so he stopped the clock.; 3/7/18, 3:30 PM
FIDO said...: (Hides smiles)

I am NOT engaging in and schadenfreude from this current twist of the knife that Feminists are indulging with in the Academy. Nope. Not relishing the upcoming carnage AT ALL!

I feel very badly for those woke, belittling superior male professors who provided credence and safe intellectual haven to some incredibly destructive pogroms of Feminists.

So Project Ouroboros is still on track! (Wipes grin off face)

I mean...what percentage of male professors, given a Sixties mentality and dominant position of authority over very young and impressionable girls filled with ideas of Post Modernism, are POSSIBLY going to take advantage of that situation?

Snicker, snort.

Comanche Voter said...: Mike Pence looks smarter every day. There are some alternatives--never work with or talk to a woman. Go transgender and have "reparative surgery"---maybe cut off your hands so you can't be accused of shoving them down some woman's jeans. Options appear to be limited.; 3/7/18, 3:45 PM

Physical and/or mental gendered transformation. Keep the hardware. Change your orientation. Or go bisexual and follow your prevailing mood swings.; 3/7/18, 3:56 PM

FIDO said...: Ah, for the happy future when all men are fags!

Althouse's obsession with criminalizing heterosexuality gains steam.

Wasn't that the basis of 'The Forever War'?

But no. What will happen is men, finding no refuge from the shrill excoriations of women, will start to send their sons to all male academies again, for legal protections if for no other reason.

Look for a return to the Cotillion as a 'safe' structure for boys and girls to interact.

Wow. It is like the Ancients actually had a frigging clue about how to structure male and female interactions in ways which were least disruptive. (To touch on another post); 3/7/18, 4:01 PM
Bay Area Guy said...: ST,

I join you in resisting the steady attempt to pussify the American male. As we speak, Adam Schiff is on CNN, with Wolf Blitzer, and they are jointly pussifying the entire country.; 3/7/18, 4:15 PM

"As an aside, how hard is it (no pun intended) to meet a gal, impress the gal, date the gal and have sex with the gal? It seems awful challenging these days for some folks."

Wouldnt surprise me if the nutty professor is on the spectrum. Genius but socially awkward.; 3/7/18, 4:58 PM

I don't know. But you might try asking Aziz Ansari about that one. He went completely by the "book" of your above scenario, and was still sex-shamed into accusations of the same sort of predator that the sexual Jacobins want to label anyone else who has a penis and a normal, non-robotic interaction with anyone who might unknowingly be another one of this country's many female snowflakes. So the issue is one where perception defines everything, men are presumed guilty without even a chance of being proved innocent (because the, you know, "feelings" won't allow it and reputational damage lives forever), and whatever advantage you can get on someone is all that matters.

It's not enough for women in America to have affirmative action, emotional fireproofing of the academy and nearly every advantage and access to everything in a legal divorce or custody proceeding. They now have carte blanche to professionally smear any guy who makes them "feel uncomfortable" or - as I suspect - even worse: just go after any random guy(s) they want whenever the need arises to prove their "power."

Fucked up.; 3/7/18, 5:12 PM
Jess said...: I'm betting his line was always: "Since the world is about to end, how about.......???.; 3/7/18, 5:14 PM
Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: This is really a puritanical version of the French revolution's aftermath. The Sexual Jacobins are conducting their own Reign of Reputational Terror.

Beheading and guillotines aren't available to them but I'm pretty sure this won't end (if it ever does) until there are a dozen castrations or two.

Since they see success and masculinity as tied up with one another, they're doing the next best thing: Thousands of acts of professional castration. They are castrating these men from their careers.

There's more to life than work. Or trying to put other people out of it.; 3/7/18, 5:17 PM
Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: Doesn't this guy lead something called "The Origins Project?"

If so, why expect that he should be as squeamish as the next she-snowflake of where people (babies) come from?; 3/7/18, 5:21 PM
Char Char Binks, Esq. said...: I hope whoever replaces him will be able to keep that time bomb ticking. I hope she'll be up to the task.; 3/7/18, 5:26 PM

Do they have a Robespierre, and if so who is it ?; 3/7/18, 5:35 PM
Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: Do they have a Robespierre, and if so who is it ?

Yes. His name is The Clitoris.

I think they're basically jealous/fearful of male sexual energy and believe that unless they neutralize it they will always somehow be oppressed/disadvantaged. If we can't take away their penises let's take away their careers!; 3/7/18, 5:40 PM

Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: They call him Mr. Clitoris.; 3/7/18, 5:44 PM
Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: They believe that men are grotesquely deformed women with oversized clitorises.

Embryologically, they're not all that far off in that assessment. But the unfortunate thing for them is that the less gentle sex also has these talents when it comes to inventing electricity, democracy and indoor plumbing that they resentfully benefit from.; 3/7/18, 5:46 PM
Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: I didn't mean to imply that women haven't invented anything useful. One of them, this Marie Curie lady, actually invented something called "radiation."

The many lessers among her gender are today content with just being toxic, though.; 3/7/18, 5:51 PM
Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: A man today dates a feminist at his own peril - assuming he can even make it through a single date with someone so joyless. They are basically social equivalents of Lorena Bobbitts.; 3/7/18, 5:53 PM

Or we would imagine it happening less often.

But rock on, Tooth! I'm glad you acknowledge that all the sex-panicked pigs are not on the other side.

That said, you would never do to a chick what Ansari did in a thousand years.; 3/8/18, 6:05 AM
Fernandinande said...: Bad Lieutenant said...
And to be precise it was discovered, not invented.

To be more precise, radioactivity and non-visible radiation was discovered by Henri Becquerel, not Curie.; 3/8/18, 7:43 AM
Michael McNeil said...: Marie Curie invented the word “radioactivity” (which is why I put it in quotes, as well as used the term “invention”), not the fact of it.; 3/8/18, 9:46 AM
Bad Lieutenant said...: Thank you both. I was satisfied to defend the discovered/invented cleavage.; 3/8/18, 2:14 PM
