Students warned: Bulging biceps, big guns advance unhealthy masculinity
The College Fix ^ | October 5, 2015 | JR Ridley

The size of G.I. Joe’s biceps and Arnold Schwarzenegger’s guns in the Terminator movies is proof that the dominant form of masculinity is out of control.

That message and similar ones were conveyed recently to students during Vanderbilt University’s “Healthy Masculinities Week,” organized by the Margaret Cuninggim Women’s Center. Attendance for students was optional.



The Vanderbilt week kicked off with a lecture by the first man to minor in women’s studies at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, Jackson Katz. (His alma mater now offers a bachelor’s in women, gender and sexuality studies.)

Yeah that mention of a beta uprising was someone else mocking him for being a wimp. It was sarcasm my friend. And that whole thread was fake. The person that posted it originally already contacted police to prove it wasn’t the real guy.

Reminds me of the hot chocolate nerd in the 0bamacare commercial.

One of the few women I know who is an open lesbian has this notice on her cubicle: “You want my guns? I might be blond but I’m not stupid.”

There’s a kickboxing club right next to a Subway that I frequent, and it is filled with WOMEN. In the liberal worldview, men are to be wimps and poofters, and women are to be the strong ones. They are trying to turn nature upside down.

I;d be very wary of even entering a “women’s center” myself!

You would probably need eye bleach and brain bleach afterward.

For these evil monsters, "healthy masculinity" is exemplified by a diesel-dyke.

Those college students in Oregon last week needed more, not less, bulging biceps around them

A few guns would have been even more helpful.

One exception is when he was videoed doing dumbbell lateral raises, throwing up those 5lb dumbbells.

Sometimes, I wonder if he did that just to degrade America's image.

Women are always right. Men should be more like women in every way possible.

Yes, that way men can also be nasty to unattractive men.

Male/female ratios on campus nationwide are approaching a 40/60% distribution according to Forbes. Anyone want to explain to me why an oppressive majority still has their own Centers, their own majors, their own exclusive scholarship programs?

It isn't a popular question to ask on campus, as I've learned to considerable amusement. But oppressive classes are always at the forefront of dictating behavior to their political enemies. Look, for example, at the plethora of stories covering Democrat media "advice" to Republicans as to what they should be doing for the next election. Sure, they have our best interests at heart. Sure they do.

The backlash against all this feminization of men will be EPIC.

It's here, it's now, it's called Islam. Why do you think it's so popular with disenfranchised men after all?

MMMmmmmmm. The very fact that he would WANT to take care of me, family, even friends, is good enough for me! Not everything is possible, I understand that.
