One in Three Women is Illiterate
Sometimes the statement men are better than women leaves me wanting a little more in the flavor of substance. It’s not often. Like all men, the shortcomings of women are something I’ve learned to accept and move on. However, occasionally we men need to re-evaluate. We need more than rational hypothesizing and logical conjecture. We need facts for the why’s and how’s.
I pose this as a formal theory. Men are better than women at everything because something like 30% of women are illiterate.
Sounds shocking doesn’t it? But really, when do women need to read? Numbers don’t count as reading, so illiteracy does not impede women from writing checks or measuring all the progress they’re not making while they’re not working out at the gym.
Before I get too ahead of myself let me quote some statistics. UNICEF and UNESCO say that two out of every three illiterates is a woman. They give the world-wide feminine literacy rate in the sixtieth percentile, while the male literacy rate towers above that number at nearly 90%. I think you’ll agree that that’s plenty of numerical majesty to spare.
Initially, when I saw the figures I thought to myself, maybe that’s why women are so shitty at everything. Just like the kid who is really shitty at baseball and then it turns out he just needed some glasses. Maybe women just need to learn how to read.
Then I realized the writing on the walls of every cluster fuck women are about to step into is only metaphorical writing. They also don’t need to be able to read to shut the hell up every once in a while and listen when something other than Oprah or an appliance that resembles Oprah is dispensing sound life advice.
Perhaps instead of Easy Bake Ovens and Barbie Dolls this Christmas, mothers should be buying their daughters Hooked on Phonics.

Here’s what you can do to prove that you yourself don’t simply argue, or even quibble, simply for the sake of it - don’t respond to me in this thread again. For, if you truly believe that I simply argue without reference to content, and if you yourself really didn’t do the same, then you would believe that arguing with me was futile and you would discontinue this discusssion.

Maybe there will be hair pulling, scratching, biting, gnashing of teeth,clothes ripping and blood spilling… Can we get a camera on the action?

*hits Sots with sword handle* I get dibs on Female since she is more of a bitch and is likely to fight dirty like all women.

It would seem she (Luka) wins (over Female) then.
This is unkind of me, but, I think, true. Many women like speaking even more than they like winning. Discuss amongst yourselves by all means.

There’s an ‘h’ word that perfectly describes Female here. Only, I forget what it is at the moment.
Now I remember. It’s whore.

But you women say anything… Men speak with intentions of winning.
This all has man-purpose. Something a woman could never understand.

Why do you assume I am a female? I could be a a man. Relating my intellect to a gender is simply an ad hominem fallacy. It seems likely that you do not answer the question because you have no purpose other than a need to blame all women for your troubles, possibly because you are middle-aged and angry. Have the women in your life - a wife - or/and daughters - really let you down? or do you need to start taking some account of the environment and context around the actions of women that you have observed rather than blaming everything solely on the individual and extrapolating that to their gender?

Why are you female?
- you’re articulate, but argumentative and display attention-seeking behavior.
A man with those particular qualities would either not write as well, or would be brain-damaged.
Since I think it unlikely you are unusually brain-damaged, I therefore deduce you are female.
Most of the men here are relatively untroubled, and certainly individual women are not in general to blame for what troubles exist. A highly feminized society, however, is another matter. Family break-down, high crime rates, and excessive promiscuity are all gifts of the feminist revolution. (Of course not all aspects of all of these things are caused by feminism, but in most cases, a majority are).
Some might also argue that promiscuity is a good thing; I don’t, but certainly some men and women do. Most would also agree that some families should break-down — in the case of domestic violence for example. Few would agree that 50% of marriages ending in divorce is an unalloyed good. I don’t think anyone would argue that young men from single-mother households being 18-20 times more likely to be criminals is good.
Most of our members are in their 20’s and 30’s. I am not sure this qualifies as middle-aged. Most of our members are not angry, though annoyance is not unknown. Certainly I am not angry.
The women in my life are generally quite good people, and as long as I appropriately adjust my expectations, I do not find I am let down any more than I am by men.
Of course. And it is our contention that the greatest single factor in this environment is the rise of feminism. Keep in mind many of us have looked at the subject of women’s studies, read feminist authors and academics, read a great deal of social history, and thought deeply about these matters.
I would not expect an endless stream of answers to your questions, but there’s quite a comprehensive one, above.

You’re female. It seems that you like to barge your way in where you’re not wanted and give your opinion to people who dont care what you think. Since you’re not wanted there is no need to answer your questions. You won’t find me posting on male bashing sites and there are thousands out there. But it’s all good when women are whining and complaining about men for you women just join in on the bitchfest. 99% of western women are rotten and just bad company. And you come here and prove it even more with your insults and psycho babble.
I can’t help but wonder why you women stay and bitch when we don’t care what you think. I know you don’t think that somehow your insults will make us like you.. No big deal since women don’t know how to make anyone happy after the panties come off. No need to answer just take your narcistic female self somewhere that you may be wanted.

eflame may be argumentative, however, this entire site exists to argue a conclusion that men are better than women. Dick provides the reasoning for his mabtw conclusion through the use of generalized examples, which are taken as premises regarding the behaviour of women. Considering the context of this site, I would say that rather than proving I am illogical for arguing against the validity of him doing so, I would say instead, this proves I do have situational awareness of what is both appropriate to argue against, and where.

You seem to be blaming single mothers for raising criminals. Perhaps you aren’t, but it does come off that way as you don’t seem to consider that the women themselves may not be solely responsible for why they are single.
Men die, men abandon their families and responsibilites and men go to prison. Should feminism or women be blamed for these things? Perhaps women also run men off or leave men, and I know gwallan has quoted statistics that show women instigate divorce in 80% of cases, but that doesn’t consider that perhaps a large number of those cases are initiated by women after the man has left or after he has been remanded. I don’t think it is fair or responsible to be quoting quantitative data without considering its qualitative aspects. We don’t even know what country that statistic comes from, nor the year it was produced, on what data it was based, we know nothing, other than a figure, without any reference or understanding to support it.

WAIT Before you respond by saying that you aren’t blaming single mothers, I have an idea. Why don’t you and other men here go to the forums and describe a non-feminised ideal western society.

You are like a HSV-2. You never quite seem to go away, and your recurrence is itchy and painful.

I know many single mothers and all of them are whores and druggies; no wonder their men left them and no wonder their sons are criminals… you stupid fucking cunt.
PS: An ideal western society is one where you shut the fuck up.

Damn right Sots…
That was right between her eyes!
Women need to shut up and learn how to please men for a change.
Women & children(same thing) should never be out from under a mans authority.

Good job exposing yourselves as misogynists and by extension, this site as a misogynistic snake pit.
