Chorus Girls, the Yea-Sayers

Heartiste previously wrote about the impact of social networking sites on womens’ egos:

Social network mediums like Facebook and Twitter have contributed to the bloating of the American female ego by giving her access to the admiration of ARMIES of would-be suitors (the equivalent of a handful of suitors in pre-internet fame times), and to an emotional support system that numbers in the hundreds, even thousands, over the relatively tiny social circle her grandmother was grateful to have in her day.

By chance I came across this brief interview with social marketing strategist Ted Rubin who speaks about the difference in the way the sexes network online.

    Off topic, but I just wanted to share this:

    http://whatever.scalzi.com/2012/08/09/an-incomplete-guide-to-not-creeping/

    It’s written by the same guy who claimed being a straight white male is the lowest difficulty setting in life. While I agree that a lot of nerds and geeks lack social skills and awareness (a little game would do wonders for them) I get annoyed when one of the axioms of modern life is to make sure no women are ever uncomfortable, men’s feelings and comfort levels be damned.

    So true! A New York girl can get love from a Dude in Alaska. She will think to herself that she got dudes across the country wanting to hit it…

    Seems that Trayvon Martin and many blacks are similar to females in that manner.

    “I speak my mind” = I’m a bitch. Everything else in her rant is just static around that most salient fact.

    That Facebook girl is totally manslut-shaming.

    Do you know any single men who have a job, own a house, and don’t have children? Maybe you should hook them up.

    I get this real odd feeling that the FB girl isn’t dating white men on a regular basis. Yet like most silly low self esteem white girls, she’ll rant and rave and piss and moan, but never learn from her mistakes. White women dating black men, is the definition, of Einstein’s definition of insanity!

    OK – didn’t see the rant, and don’t care to look for it, but if she doesn’t have kids, and she doesn’t want to date the losers she’s describing, her problem isn’t necessarily that she’s an entitled bitch (she may be, anyway), but that she’s fishing in the wrong pool. Without the attitude, she’d actually be a pretty decent catch for some beta provider, especially if she wants kids, but even if she doesn’t.

  9. Anthony 08/16/2012 at 3:52 pm

    DMann – I’d guess that the facebook cow-orker is black herself, and wants to date black men, but only those who meet her standards. And her standards aren’t unreasonable in and of themselves – she’s not bringing someone else’s kids to the relationship, so it’s reasonable to ask that of men who want to date her.

    Bitch oughta move out to the mid west or wheveever the fuck there are a lot of single guys farming or working in resources. In Aus there are huge mining booms in the middle of nowhere and no girls. Companies pay insane wages, fly workers in and out and so on just to get guys out there. Women in those environments clean up. My mate who used to date hotties in the city is now engaged to a chubster because she was the best of the local talent in his mining town (he didn’t FIFO). If girls want decent guys with good jobs, houses and no STDs then they should go where those guys are instead of hanging around cities trying to be the star of her own little sex in the city drama and bitching because Mr Big hasn’t shown up to catch her unique brand of STD.

    Scalzi seems to be trying very hard to kill his career. It’s mostly white men who read science fiction, and he goes out of his way to castigat/mock them at every turn.

    The societal attitude that womens’ most minute needs need to be catered to at the expense of other people is just a big shit test, and men need to collectively stand the fuck up and tell women to stop acting like such prissasses.

    “apparently I’m not approachable by men… because…”

    I’m a bitch…

    (There I fixed it…)

    Isn’t this woman just a female Whiskey? They seem to have the same m.o. of blaming the opposite sex as an explanation for all their life difficulties. Maybe someone should try to hook them up. (Of course, both being complainers, they would most likely hate each other.)
