Ansari was just a bad date.
Mattress girl tried to retroactively remove consent and then used her mattress art thing to harass and intimidate a fellow student leading to a rights violation the school had to settle out of court.

You have MGTOW confused with incels. They have as much in common as Trump and a healthy diet.

It's nice to see people rise above their raising. I have a few FB friends who post rapey things and I always wonder what their kids think. I freaked out on my mom once when she stated a 14 year old seduced her much older uncle.

Maybe so (though I can't say that I've heard of it), but the subject of the meme stated that he does go on solo dates. Idk if his mom thinks he has a chaperone or what.

Yeah, privileges like innocent until proven guilty.

#metoo is long overdue but it's also a powerful and potentially abusive weapon.

But hey, don't take my word for it, go take a look at the innocence project. In fact, minorities are most disproportionately impacted by false charges and wrongful imprisonment so we need to make sure that we respect #metoo but don't let it trample hard fought civil rights.

Nice, the chain reaction is starting
Did you read the entire thing you posted?

Another mom posted on FB. Nuff said.

Her other son, the subject’s brother, made clear, his brother goes on solo dates and respects the Metoo cause. Mommy subsequently deletes her FB post.

Twitter folk have a lot of fun with the topic.

Of course you would give off that snarky attitude and give such a reply


I can tell how upset you are that women are not gonna be prioritized in the dating pool the next 25-30 years, that is ok. Everything must change...

A great number of them are men who were raped by the courts in divorce proceedings, along with guys who were physically and emotionally abused by their wives/girlfriends. They're not incels, as they can still get women; most of them just choose not to go down that path anymore. With the infestation of feminism and white knight soyboys, who can blame them, really?

I'm not MGTOW, but my best friend is; his ex-wife was cheating on him with multiple men, and even though she was the one who was at fault, the court still gave her the house and full custody of the kids. He was pretty much left with nothing. He's much better now 5 years down the road, but he has sworn off ever getting involved with a woman again. The funny thing is, though--he gets laid more often now than he ever did while he was married; he swears by Tinder, POF, and Bumble.

I wish this whole innocent until proven guilty thing applied to the accusers as well. "She's lying" "She's a ****" "She's crazy" "She has an ulterior motive".
