So today the mainpage displayed a
quote from a Web site called the
Manhood Academy. Since my classes were canceled for tonight and tomorrow due to snowy doom, I decided to give the site a glance over. And oh
boy is it sexist. The site bills itself as "the first worldwide social education center
specifically designed to train men like you in social competence." Social competence is apparently defined as using fear and violence to control women and force them into submission. Their
free e-book even reads like a domestic abuse guide:
- "While women fault men for not being able to control their biological urges, they have no conscience about manipulating the male sex drive to fill their own bank accounts. This is especially hypocritical considering that feminists try to absolve women of blame whenever a scantily dressed female is raped." page 22
- "While women and children often lack the capacity to grasp the inner workings of authority, they still have an instinctual, positive response to it. Authority brings poorly arranged things, people, events and circumstances into a state of order. Hence, people are attracted to those who have the ability to create order." page 131
- "Once your authority is established, pain is required to maintain it. This doesn’t mean you suddenly cut off the pleasure. It just means that the pleasure you provide must be conditional—it must be merited." page 139
- "Fear is required to meet the universal need for order. By neglecting to address violations of your authority with pain, you undermine any order previously created. In layman’s terms: if women cease to fear you, they will also cease to love you." page 141
- "Society must recognize the value of teaching females to submit to male authority, and it must teach males how to exercise their authority to meet everyone’s needs. Only then can men and women truly benefit from the healthy exercise of authority and submission within a relationship. When boundaries are responsibly placed to curb disorder, everyone enjoys the liberating peace of orderly relationships." page 150
- "For example, a husband should rightly control his wife’s associations. This practical use of his authority protects her from potential harm. If you realize that men mainly associate with women for sexual purposes, you too will protect your girlfriend or wife from careless associations with other men." page 160
- "To properly restrict a woman, you should take care to meet her needs. Restricting who your sister, girlfriend or wife associates with will ensure their safety." page 160
- "For example, if a husband tells his wife to buy a gift for a wedding even though the gift may be tasteless or embarrassing, the wife should obey him. If he asks her to cook dinner when she’s tired or to perform her sexual duties even if she’s not in the mood, she should comply. Even if he asks her to dig a hole in the backyard and fill it back up, she should obey. Such decisions, while possibly foolish or flat out wrong, do not violate any ethical boundaries. They should be obeyed to preserve authority." page 168
The site's forum is, rather obviously, even worse. Topics in the "Visitor's Center" include "How to tell if you're a mangina", "Feminism--a history of lies EXPOSED", and "Bitch behavior starts early." Posters lace their comments with animated GIFs of women being punched and slapped, and women are routinely disparaged as "whores", "bitches" and "cunts". One user named Dr. Wang Long (insert compensation joke here) posted a picture of a woman with facial bruises and the following caption: "THIS BITCH DIDN'T KNOW WHEN TO SHUT UP. DO YOU?" This site is apparently so thoroughly disturbing that an author at the sexist
Spearhead site called Manhood Academy a magnet for rape supporters and wrote that the site's members are "simply scum" who should be "watched by the FBI." Let that sink in.
On a somewhat related note, some people on the mainpage have suggested adding the anti-sexist
man boobz to the list of Friends of FSTDT.
