How charming of him, how much male privilege do you need to think you should police lesbians.

TiredofthisBS · 15/11/2019 15:46

What he really wants to say is 'Women are shit.' Well you, sir, are a misogynistic bell end.

HandsOffMyRights · 15/11/2019 15:53

I'm going to do a Ricky Gervais voice here and say: "Ooh, you're hard."

Birdsfoottrefoil · 15/11/2019 15:55

Who?

littlbrowndog · 15/11/2019 15:55

Who is he and why should I care about his opinion?

TiredofthisBS · 15/11/2019 16:05

Presenter on Mythbusters. One would think he has the ability to think critically.

MrGsFancyNewVagina · 15/11/2019 16:08

*Presenter on Mythbusters$

Ohh! I’m looking forward to him proving that wishing to be something makes it actually possible. I’m going to wish I was a bit taller (seating heels is cheating), had less grey hair (dye is just covering up the obvious) and am rich (bloody bank won’t believe me! Bigots!)

MrGsFancyNewVagina · 15/11/2019 16:09

*wearing heels!

TiredofthisBS · 15/11/2019 16:11

In the grand scheme of things he is a no one. What he thinks is not important. Unfortunately he has a large platform for his anti-woman views.

ShonaAndTheWaterHorse · 15/11/2019 16:12

I've never heard of him.

3timeslucky · 15/11/2019 16:17

I had a look at Wiki to see if there was anything in his life that might explain his incapacity to carry his scientific focus into the area of understanding biological sex. I see that "His grandfather Cushman Haagensen was a surgeon who pioneered breast cancer surgery". I suspect his grandfather could have explained biological sex to him quite well. Meanwhile Adam has opted for tv science, "a lifelong interest in costume making and cosplay" and wokeology. He has a bit of work to do on eloquence.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 15/11/2019 16:21

Oh the irony.

I await the Myth busters episode where they look at the myth that sex is binary, or perhaps the myth that you can't change sex...

SarahTancredi · 15/11/2019 16:25

Damn it I liked him. I really enjoyed mythbusters. He seemed more I intelligent than this.

I also cant wait for the myth of sex to be busted Hmm

FWRLurker · 15/11/2019 16:30

Eh he’s an American lefty there is only 1 opinion allowed.

Comments are pathetic. Someone brought out the “Saying women are only female because of biology is BIOLOGICAL ESSENTUALISM” DARVO nonsense.

DickKerrLadies · 15/11/2019 16:30

I also cant wait for the myth of sex to be busted Hmm

I assume the answer will be something along the lines of "because clownfish"

NeurotrashWarrior · 15/11/2019 16:34

Ditto.

SpeculumCrushingGoblet · 15/11/2019 16:44

What a disappointment!
Completely agree with TiredofthisBS, where’s his critical thinking? Surely his whole celebrity status is built on critical thinking and scientific evidence.
Which leaves me to believe that he is yet another man who hates women.

MrGsFancyNewVagina · 15/11/2019 17:08

I really enjoyed mythbusters. He seemed more I intelligent than this.

It’s just a tv show, where he’s following a script. I think he’s just shown how lacking in critical thinking and intelligence he is. I’m sure he’s enjoying all the love he’s getting at the minute, but I wonder if he notices that it’s mostly woke blokes (misogynists), anime characters and the very very odd young handmaiden that’s showing him all the love. It’s the fantasy of a lot of men to be fawned over by women. I wonder if this was the kind of ‘women’ he was fantasising about. Grin Get your coat Savage, you’ve pulled. 🤣

SarahTancredi · 15/11/2019 17:24

Yes MrG

I particularly liked the tweet telling him that he will eventually say something sensible lie saying a male who cut up their girlfriend doesnt belong in a womens prison and the animae avatars will turn on him too.

That I cant wait to see

TheChampagneGalop · 15/11/2019 17:39

Sarah And then one of the twitter "anti-t*rfs" compared Kristoffer Johansson to Aileen Wuornos like they are the same. Right.

Isn't it interesting that Savage could have just written that he supports trans people, but instead decides to talk shit about feminists/women.

SarahTancredi · 15/11/2019 17:43

No oned ever denied that violent women exist or that we dont accept that they are our problem to solve

Male violence is not our problem to solve . That's the difference.

People have been seriously injured by seat belts..doesnt mean by default we should never wear them.

SetYourselfOnFire · 16/11/2019 08:11

The replies were full of "thank you for standing up for trans rights" which he didn't do. He could've made an explicit pro-trans tweet, instead he attacked feminists. Somehow that's become the same thing.

Melroses · 16/11/2019 08:13

Presenter on Mythbusters. One would think he has the ability to think critically.

Maybe he just does the presenting?
