NYTimes: #IAmSexist

If you are a woman reading this, I have failed you. Through my silence and an uninterrogated collective misogyny, I have failed you. I have helped and continue to help perpetuate sexism. I know about how we hold onto forms of power that dehumanize you only to elevate our sense of masculinity. I recognize my silence as an act of violence. For this, I sincerely apologize.

As a woman reading this, I think you are a self-aggrandizing, self-promoting dick of the first caliber and I sincerely ask you to stuff it.

Are there women who find this kind of thing cute?

I didn’t read until the end, which I normally do before linking but I couldn’t stand so much slobbering self-congratulation.

As Weird Al Yankovic sang in “Amish Paradise”:

“Think you’re really righteous?
Think you’re pure of heart?
Well, I know I’m a million times as humble as thou art!
I’m the pious guy the little omelettes wanna be like
On my knees day and night scoring points for the afterlife!”

Or, as Jesus said:
5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”
–Matthew 6:5-6

This is white knighting at its worse.

  He’s clearly enjoying painting women as pathetic victims.

I read this article earlier and almost hurled. What a pompous, vainglorious prick. It’s amazing what they’ll publish in the NYT.

“…man, proud man,
Dressed in a little brief authority,
Most ignorant of what he’s most assured,
His glassy essence, like an angry ape,
Plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven
As make the angels weep.”

And I’m weeping. I’m really weeping. (And I’m no angel.)

  “It’s amazing what they’ll publish in the NYT.”
  You obviously haven’t read much of what that rag publishes.
  
  “These to-day are proud in power
  And lord it in their little hour.
  The immortal bones obey control
  Of dying flesh and dying soul.
  
  “Before this fire of sense decay,
  This smoke of thought blow clean away.
  And leave with ancient night alone
  The steadfast and enduring bone.”
  (A.E. Housman, 1896)

“Are there women who find this kind of thing cute?”

I don’t have a lot of use for MRA types, but I’m gonna paraphrase their answer to this kind of mewling dribble…

“She’s still not going to sleep with you….”

“So I fuck up from time to time
…and, yes, I’m often quite a greedy insufferable narcissist.
However, may I ask: What kind of claim can YOU honestly make to any kind of ‘moral perfection’?”

…MY response to anyone who would accuse me of harassment, sexism, or any other infraction or “offense against humanity”.

I didn’t read the article because with my light sensitive headache I have no interest in other people’s navel gazing.

Of course he is. He has a book coming out.

Why are pipe bombs aka suspicious packages being sent to people who criticized Trump?
