Real life fight clubs.

MENLO PARK, California (AP) -- They may sport love handles and Ivy League
degrees, but every two weeks, some Silicon Valley techies turn into vicious
street brawlers in a real-life, underground fight club.


Predictably in this article we see usual crap from a couple of mangina
professors.

Check out this twat, Michael Messner, a "sociology and gender studies
professor":


"Boys have these warrior fantasies picked up from popular culture, and
schools sort of force that out of them," he said. In these fantasies, "The
good guys always resort to violence, and they always get the glory and the
women."


Yeah, we all fantasise about being warriors because of evil popular culture.
It's got nothing to do with any hardwiring is it? Tosser. Schools "sort of
force that out of them"? Or rather, schools drug, brainwash and humiliate
boys into being emasculated, and these fight-club antics are clearly a
rebellion against this.

Along comes another mangina, a "sociology professor":


Real-life fight clubs are the male version of the girls who cut themselves


So if men start fight clubs and beat each other up because they are
supposedly told "by popular culture" to be warriors, what does that say
about female's tendency to indulge in self-mutilation? That they're told by
popular culture to be victims? That by victimising themselves they can get
attention and feel fulfilled? That would sound like a fair theory to me.
We're told how women are empowered these days but all they seem to do is
endlessly play the victim, feminism just being a big emotional
self-mutilation excercise to get sympathy, attention and release from
responsibility.

With the Marriage Strike leaving them lonely and bored, maybe women could
start their own equivalent clubs, where they all gather round dark and dingy
basements and spread horrible gossip and scandalous rumours about each
other.

"Rule number one," declares Tina Durden, "You don't talk about Gossip Club!"

Next day, every member has told five friends, all their colleagues, their
cat and a supermarket cashier or two.

On that note, I think I'll watch Fight Club tonight.
