Hully. Get here ON TIME ok? You've missed the stripper, the orang utan outfit and the fact that someone already pissed in the punch.

Christ. What a wanker that man is. Spending hours trawling sites and drawing ghaslty pictures of the women he sees.

The black woman 'blacked out' was completely offensive. I can't see how people find this funny.

JenniferEight · 31/12/2011 19:09

I just really hope this is the full extent of his wankerness.

I mean I hope he doesn't have worse hobbies that might involve actual physical abuse of other people. A mind like this is one to watch imo.

I would never laugh at anyone with a disability, facial disfigurement, squint or anything like that. Ive got a skin disfigurement myself and Ive had strangers laughing at me in the street and its horrible.

Its not the women in the pictures I found funny, to me they are normal everyday people, its the way the pictures were drawn I liked, just the same I would find a charicature artist to my taste.

I do understand the racism and mysogeny behind it and why many of you would take offence, and it is cruel and hurtful to have done it this way. If someone did sign up for a dating site and found themselves on the receiving end then I can see how it would really upset.

JenniferEight · 31/12/2011 19:25

Yes sheep I think that is the point. The pictures in themselves might be funny IF done with consent, between friends, drawing each other really badly etc

It's the format in which he has carried this sick enterprise out that makes it so mindblowingly disgusting, the clear intent to hurt and upset, indeed destroy someone's self esteem in one blow, and the publication of such on the worldwide web for all to see and laugh at - with the original photos of real human beings who were probably extremely upset by it.

I can imagine drawing really badly and it being funny. BBut not drawing a complete stranger in a really insulting way and sending it to them as a sick 'joke'. It's not going to make them laugh and he knows this.

He's a sick bastard, nothing more.

StickingPlaster · 31/12/2011 19:45

The posters who think they are all fine except for the black woman one. The creator of the original drawings has taken physical characteristics and caricatured them indiscriminately. Have you ever thought that you may be the ones holding the racist attitudes by being racially offended on her behalf?

JenniferEight · 31/12/2011 19:47

That doesn't make sense.

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 31/12/2011 19:50

No

StickingPlaster · 31/12/2011 19:50

Racism is treating someone differently because of their race/skin colour. The creator of the drawings is not treating her any different from the others; the posters who think all the pictures are fine except for the one of the black woman are.

tethersend · 31/12/2011 19:51

"The creator of the drawings is not treating her any different from the others; the posters who think all the pictures are fine except for the one of the black woman are."

Now that's funny Grin

Get0rf · 31/12/2011 19:54

I don't think any of the pictures are fine, they are all pretty mysoginistic.

The black woman blacked out though was blatantly racist - it is like something that a fan of the Black and White minstrels would find funny. I don't think we are racist for pointing out blatant racism like that, don't be so stupid absurd.

JenniferEight · 31/12/2011 19:55

No, that's not true. Most of the others have very poor photographs or some kind of 'thing' to pick on in terms of their hairstyle (chosen) or general appearance and style and posture.

The black woman is really beautiful but happens to have brown skin and be standing against a black background.

He's using this to say 'she is black, the background is black, let's pretend we can't see her' when that's plainly bollocks. He's not basing it on the picture being bad, but on the preconceived idea that all 'black' people have absolutely black skin which is just totally stupid.

EmmaBemma · 31/12/2011 19:56

Having a brief look through some of the responses on pistonheads - check out this charmer...

"Reminds me of the time when I was at uni, I would add girls from lectures that I barely knew to msn and send the most detailed phallaces, [sic] drawn using ms paint. The key to it all is, slipping the picture into a standard convo e.g " yeah quantitative analysis was boring this afternoon, are you off to the SU tonight?" BAM #penis picture# BAM"

BAM! What a guy.

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 31/12/2011 19:56

I think they are all crap. The only one that is just silly is the scribbly haired woman.

The one of the black woman isnt worthy of some psuedo pyschological bollocks about the viewers of it being blah fucking blah.

It is what it is - racist and crude and shite.

The wanker is picking on her colour and the crude idea that black people are invisable unless they open their big ol watermelon mouths.

The wanker is making the other women appear ridiculous too but he uses other parts of their appearence, not their ethnicity.

He does this to humilate and hurt them.

Because his penis is small and he is bitter because no one wants to touch it apart from him.

JenniferEight · 31/12/2011 19:57

and offensive/

far more offensive than having a go at someone's daft hairstyle or the way they are smiling.

Not a whole lot more offensive than having a go at someone for having a slight cast to their eye or facial hair, though.

I didn't say that picture was worse, anyway - he's a complete twat whichever of them you look at.

JenniferEight · 31/12/2011 19:59

yy MrsDeVere

spot on

StickingPlaster · 31/12/2011 20:00

If you have a look at more of the pictures they are not all 'bad pictures', you will also see some really beautiful white women who he has caricatured.

He also caricatures people for squint eyes and general face shape (not chosen, as you put it).

If it was a white person on a white background, or a ginger person on an orange background it would be equally funny (or unfunny, depending on your views of the pictures as a whole).

SuePurblybilt · 31/12/2011 20:01

The pistonhead chaps were sufficiently inspired to select their own muses from Plenty of Fish, if you can be bothered to read their thread.

tethersend · 31/12/2011 20:04

I went to art school and we often used the state of the art mark-making equipment to draw massive, exercise book standard drawings, reliefs and sculptures of enormous phalluses (sometimes with jizz).

Difference being that we never used them to sexually harass anybody.

These pictures would have been amusing; no, really funny; if they had not been done in order to lampoon some perceived vanity on the part of the subjects who DARED to put photos of themselves online to try and catch a man. I mean, as IF a man would be interested in them! It smacks of 'taking them down a peg or two'.

Had he done this in another context, minus the racism, it would have been funny. But he didn't. Because his intention was primarily misogynistic.

flippinada · 31/12/2011 20:13

I'm really just at the fact that some people - other women no less - actually find this funny.

The mind boggles, to use a well worn cliche.

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 31/12/2011 20:13

Quite.

Any pictures that are less cruel are only less cruel throught accident, not design.

He doesnt like women.

That much is clear.

StickingPlaster · 31/12/2011 20:17

MrsDeVere,

If anyone is pseudo-psychoanalysing here, it's you. Without knowing anything about this guy other than these pictures, which some people find funny and some people don't, you have come to the conclusion that he is a bitter, woman hating wanker with a small penis.

flippinada · 31/12/2011 20:21

I think lots of us have come to the same conclusion StickingPlaster, not just MrsdeVere.

flippinada · 31/12/2011 20:22

"bitter, woman hating wanker with a small penis."

Yep, sounds about right to me :).

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 31/12/2011 20:29

No StickingPlaster
I am calling a wanker a wanker.

No pyschobabble there.

You can tell he is a woman hating wanker by the way he is cruel to women, the way he likes to trip them up, make them think someone thinks they are pretty and then tell them they are ugly, disgusting and stupid for even thinking that someone might like them.

You dont need a degree to work that out.
