This guy is admitting on Twitter he pays for prostitutes and the libfems and dudebros are positively fawning over him for his bravery. Cause it’s super important to destigmatise men who buy women’s bodies for sex.

I really cannot believe what an incredible job is being done on totally undoing the feminist work of previous generations.

I give it five years before we are seeing tweets from men saying they like having sex with children being praised for their bravery.

This is where we are headed.

We didn't really think all these men tweeting their support for sex workers, and abusing 'swerfs' (is it?) were doing for the sake of the women, did we?

Male sexual rights movement. Backlash to women's rights movement - all of it.

I had an ex with one ball. He had a weird entitled attitude to women too.

Can I TERF translate ? 'I rape trafficked and vulnerable women'.

Not quite so 'chivalrous', is it?

  1. His wife doesn't understand him.
  2. She is emotional and unreasonable.
  3. She is practically unhinged with jealousy.
  4. He is a reasonable, liberal sort of guy.
  5. He is in favour of women making their own choices about career.
  6. Especially when it comes to sex work, why not?
  7. His wife is bit of a prude, tbh. Hidebound. Her family...

You missed out number one "my wife and I just don't have sex anymore and I feel rejected" which translates to I don't fancy her so would rather pay for a hot young EE.

Also "it's my reward for being a good husband".

Can we please not go there with the shitty "one ball" jokes and generalisations please?

LaSqrrl · 15/05/2018 10:29

Is this how low the bar is now? A guy who tweets that he buys women’s bodies for sex is some kind of modern day knight??

Apparently, the bar is set that low these days. And yes, agree where it is headed.

Sure, Mrsfrumble, worry about offending the pay-for-rapist. Not about his rapey, cheating ways. You have priorities after all.

Mrsfrumble · 15/05/2018 10:45

FFS, I wasn't worrying about defending that disgusting shitbag and you know it! Him having one testicle is a red-herring; a pathetic "justification" and attempt to garner sympathy.

I was objecting to the Hitler references, and the inference by the above poster that his sense of sexual entitlement was related to having one ball.

DH lost a testicle to cancer. It has made not one scrap of difference to our sex life, DH's self esteem or his views on the commodification of women's bodies. Which is how I can tell the tweeter was a creep before he lost his ball, and is now a creep with a very lame excuse.

I am deeply saddened by the number of women cheering this wank stain on. :(

SporadicSpartacus · 15/05/2018 11:55

Frumble - Flowers re. DH. I sometimes misjudge tone and wasn’t intending to offend with my flippancy.

In my ex’s case, I think his one ball was relevant to his attitude, as he saw himself as some kind of defective man and inherently unlovable by women. I did my best to persuade him otherwise, but ultimately there was only so much sulking and whining I was willing to put up with.

bluescreen · 15/05/2018 12:09

Mrsfrumble Yes, I should apologise too. I was distracted by the Godwin leap, but that's no excuse. Flowers

DearSergio · 15/05/2018 12:51

I've spoken a little about my abusive ex on here before, but one of the worst aspects of his personality was that he used prostitutes and was very unashamedly open about it. He swung between the view of they were so attracted to him, sex addicts - " they loved fucking for money! " and that he was simply paying for a service, like having his shoes cleaned Angry . Laughably he is in a " feminist " band, very much so of the liberal feminist variety. And they all know that he's raped hundreds of women for money and they think he is wonderful! It's disgusting. So this is happening at a local level too sadly...

Mrsfrumble · 15/05/2018 12:58

No worries. I'm a little sensitive about it, I'll admit, because cancer is always grim. Fortunately, DH is, as I say, secure in his manhood (probably due to having more enlightened views as to what "manhood / masculinity" actually comprises) and remarkably phlegmatic about his "incompleteness".

The tweeting wankstain, using the idea that losing a bollock gives men a sort of "special needs" status when it comes to sex to justify his actions, perpetuates the damaging attitude that made Sporadic's ex such a pain in the arse.

Mrsfrumble · 15/05/2018 13:38

I should add that I'm not denying anyone's right to feel self-conscious after surgery, or that having your genitals operated on might affect your feelings about sex.

But in the context of the original tweet mentioning it comes across as such a non-sequitur. Most men like having their balls stroked, however many they have.

ArcheryAnnie · 15/05/2018 17:24

Mrsfrumble I'm sorry, it was me that kicked that one off - it was mainly because so many of us have been called Literally Hitler for our views about sex trafficking (our views being that's it's bad...) that I couldn't resist a Literally Hitler joke. Flowers
