L.J. Writes

This, basically.

A couple of weeks ago on YouTube I got into a debate with an MRA. (Or rather he replied to my post while calling me and other feminists names.) Seeing a chance for a real conversation, I tried to engage him by addressing his points in detail, citing links to support my position, and asking questions of my own.

So what do you think happened next?

a) He responded with like thoughtfulness and we had a nice chat.
b) He grew angry, called me names, and threatened violence.
c) Crickets; he ignored my post and did not answer.
d) He accused me of preaching icky feminist dogma, while also admitting he didn't read my post. Because he could TOTALLY TELL! Without reading a word! He's amazing!

( And the answer is... )

So that's how my attempt to engage with an MRA with actual logic and facts went. Hey, at least no one threatened to rape and decapitate me, so it actually went rather well, all things considered.

(Mark should have known this would happen when he introduced us. No one but himself to blame, I tell you.)

This Les Miserables parody, produced by the Korean 22nd Fighter Wing and called Les Militaribles, is my current Greatest Thing Ever. Mark and I put it on during dinner and promptly proceeded to laugh our asses off. Bask in its greatness, mortals:
