    Reading this, first I vomited a little in my mouth, then I laughed a lot.

    I believe this blog entry can be translated as: "I have raped a few women, and here is my pseudo-intellectual justification for it".

    Well, I doubt that sex is a female resource. But I didn't read the article. And I don't think it's true that females are not capable of feeling for those who are not better than they are - what does that even mean anyway, 'better'? If this guy thinks someone is better because they have money and power, he has to be joking.

    On forums like this one, there is are a variety of common terms, e.g. "troll", and common ways of dealing with those terms, e.g. "don't feed".

    I'm not calling the OP a troll, but I am noting that there are enough blogs out their that they are beginning to resemble internet forum posts. Some better than others and some just put up because they can. Is there yet a term for a "trolling" blog?

    The OP posts good, bad and mediocre post (like us all). This one is mediocre (both mine and his). I find mediocre posts to be the norm for everybody.

    Actually there's enough blogs out there where the fringes of sanity can now freely post their ideas to the world, since normally they'd risk being socially alienated in real life but out of 2 billion people on the internet they can finally find at least a few thousand people to agree with them. Rape apologists are all over the internet, it's important to point out the extremes so these people continue to be mocked both in real life and on the internet so their ideas can never gain ground to stand on.

    Or I could've just posted this, less extreme, still as asinine, and this guy would have to be ultimate troll to keep it up at a university paper

    The internet has given misogyny a whole new medium to rise to the surface of.

    Why is everyone paying attention to the rape part?

    I thought the dudes' giving him tips on how to get women was hilarious much more interesting.

    You people make me sick.

    That's exactly my point.

    I've seen enough of your posts to know that you weren't trolling. I was suggesting that there are some blogs that should be treated similarly to trolling posts.

    If women get more sex than men... No that doesn't even make sense.

    Well, I think his point was that women have more control over sex as a commodity, in the sense that it is their consent which allows the sex to proceed, otherwise it is defined as rape. But I'm not sure I agree with that, there are a lot of things implied into that statement which aren't right to me, one of them that sex shouldn't be viewed like that as it's not a human right like food which is necessary for survival.

    See this is a fallacy though, people like the blog writer who's personality makes them so unappealing for anyone to sleep with that they further place the act of sex as a solely female commodity to further displace blame away from themselves. Or worse, the people who still believe women don't really like sex. Men need to consent to sex just as much as women for it to happen, it takes two to tango. Any man who's never turned down some kind of sexual move is a man who's never been in a relationship or had some annoying as hell girl quasi stalking them. The penis as well as the vagina are both integral parts of sex.

    Yes and that's the part where I disagree with him. Nevertheless I find it hard to envisage a situation where the female pursues the male, the male refuses to consent yet intercourse proceeds anyway. This is how rape normally happens but with the male as perpetrator.

    Really though? I mean this is about the only part of the blog article I agree with and I also do agree with you to an extent. Sex is definitely more of a female 'commodity' if you want to call it such. Maybe some of us have not been as blessed as you but you can hear references referring to this found all over the place. A comedic example:

    Chris Rock: Women always complain that men don't turn down sex, "I turn it down why can't you ?" That's because every guy you've met since you were 13 has been trying to fuck you... When a guy gets offered some they're like "Damn it must be my lucky day"

    It's not even close in terms of the ability of women to get laid as to a man which is why I think strip clubs and prostitutes tend to be more popular and geared towards males.

    I haven't met too many women who approached sex the same that most guys do-- they're out there, but they're rare.

    I definitely don't agree with the article here... but I do think that it is getting harder to be a man... and probably also harder to be a woman as well. I'm not against 'progress', but now it's like no one knows how they're supposed to act or what kind of role they're supposed to have... and I'd say this is especially true for guys.

    In previous generations, the white male was the all-powerful king of the universe, but now it seems like he's just a hyper-flawed guilt-tripped oaf who still somehow manages to be a universal threat to absolutely everyone else... while everyone else is either a victim, or someone that deserves extra support at every turn.

    This is society, women are taught not to be the aggressors in courtship, and a woman making an effort to sleep with a man for no other reason then finding him hot gets labeled a slut.

    http://www.iub.edu/~kinsey/resources/FAQ.html#number
    Considering more men are having sex more often and with more women than the vice versa, I'd say sex is also a male commodity. Getting laid isn't exactly easier as a woman, women reading this thread, raise your hand if you know someone who's pants you want nothing more than to pull down but you know that probably won't happen even if you walked into the room naked.

    The fact a larger segment of the male population is willing to play the numbers and just try to sleep with every attractive girl they see with the most terrible, albeit sometimes creepy pick up lines, until they can finally do it with one doesn't make sex more of a female commodity, it just makes sex specifically to them a more desired commodity, and sets the stereotypes that makes casual sex harder for all men and women.

    ^Very True ... Madcap you're dealing with an age bracket that was either in their mid 20's or 30's during 9/11 with those statistics. I think this post 9/11 generation whether or not you believe it or not has been dramatically impacted on some of these issues as well as the recession we've had for the past few years.

    :confused:

    I don't think 9/11 really affected the sex lives of anyone except for maybe during that month. The post 9/11 generation hasn't really started having sex yet, it was only 9 years ago. Unless the entire world changed their sex habits after 9/11 I don't see how 9/11 is relevant. 9/11 was one of the defining historical moments of a generation, it doesn't create a generation. Culture hasn't changed dramatically since September 2001.

    I mean if anything as time has progressed, not in terms of pre/post 9/11 but as a constant since the early 60's, women have become more empowered in their sexuality in terms of being able to seek out potential mates vs being the one who's always hunted which if anything just further backs up the point sex is not a female commodity.

    We are the 9/11 generation. Or i guess you were in middle school? ROFL sorry if you read that but I just a random moment of anger.

    This is off topic but culture has not changed much since 9/11?

    I dunno man, technology, patriot act have all taken major leaps and bounds since then. Not even facebook then:rolleyes:
