I Am An Mra

Mike Buchanan shows the caring side of your typical MRA on AVFM......


Brian Hildebrandt Mike Buchanan • 3 days ago

Hmmm... okay. Thanks for your response. I checked out the links you sent me.

Just seeing the phrase 'Lying Woman of the Month' gave me a negative visceral reaction, and I'm an MRA. I could just imagine what the average woman (feminist or not), mangina or white knight would feel.

Maybe I'm oversensitive but the phrase appears to implicitly stereotype women as liars, similar to how the "Don't be that Guy" campaign does with men.

I would have to ask, what is the primary purpose of these awards? Are they intended to inform, persuade, or broaden interest among readership? I wouldn't want it to manifest as just an echo chamber.

Hopefully I'm not coming across as too pompous. I'm just trying to understand your position a little better.

Brand, you claim to be an MRA, yet you write this:
"I could just imagine what the average woman (feminist or not), mangina or white knight would feel."
If you're an MRA - which I very much doubt - why would you give a flying f*** what feminists, manginas, or white knights would 'feel'? You wouldn't, by definition. You've already wasted enough of my time. I don't know what you're doing on an AVfM comment stream. You're a dose of Polonum 210 I could do without. Feel free to pollute this comment stream, just don't expect any more responses from me. Goodbye."

See how enlightened these AVFM stalwarts are? A reasonably put argument about changing the word "woman" to "feminist" is met by a hail of abuse.

Jackie Boy Barnes is just the same...a gender ba<x>sed hater.

Asian, what business is it of yours? Lana and her husband are consenting adults. Their relationship And how it is constructed is no ones concern but theirs. Lana doesn't want all men to how before her just her husband. If her husband agrees to this arrangement then more power to both of them. It's none of your concern. Her and her husbands life style choice has no baring what so ever on her ability to he an MRA. She believes and fights for equal rights for men and stands against feminism. That is all that is required.

You are only showing your ignorance and a closed mind.

She likes to sleep around. What MRA would agree to his wife doing that?
Mikemcneil · 61-69, M
She doesn't believe in equal rights for her husband, does she?
JackBarnesMRA
You will have to ask him.
Mike, there are many different types of people out there. There are many different types of relationships. It is not for me to judge the relationship dynamics between consenting adults. The overwhelming majority of Mras don't judge people's relationships. That's another difference between us and you (feminists)
JackBarnesMRA
She fights for equal rights for men. If her husband is a man he is included.
Mikemcneil · 61-69, M
I don't have to ask him. She has described how she is married but likes to sleep with other men. She refuses to allow her husband equal rights in their sexual relationship. I am not judging her, I am just pointing out her duplicity.
Mikemcneil · 61-69, M
Her husband is treated like a dog by her. How can you believe anything she says about equality?
JackBarnesMRA
There relationship in no way reflects on her ability to be an Mra.
JackBarnesMRA
If he is black would you say that she is a racist?
JackBarnesMRA
They both have freedom of choice.
Mikemcneil · 61-69, M
Stop fudging Jackie boy....his race means nothing to me. She treats him like a dog, but you won't say a bad word about her.
Mikemcneil · 61-69, M
Oh Jackie Boy....you love her, don't you?
JackBarnesMRA
I don't agree with their relationship dynamics. But I will not judge her or her husband. It's none of my business. She fights for men's rights that's all I need to know.
If he is into being submissive then she is giving him what he wants. She is treating him exactly how he wants to be treated.
Of course this entire conversation is based on that your assertions are true. I don't know that they are. If they are then so what.
JackBarnesMRA
I only love one woman that way. I'm married to her.
Mikemcneil · 61-69, M
It's posted on her blog. It's nothing to do with what I think. I think it's very funny you can't criticise her. Would Elam behave like a dog for a woman? Would you?

He has no freedom to do what he wants unless he walks away from her. That's not equal rights at all.
Mikemcneil · 61-69, M
Would you allow her to "train" you and let her sleep with other men?
JackBarnesMRA
Nope. But I'm not into the dom/sub lifestyle either.
Mikemcneil · 61-69, M
I notice you didn't get back to me with a witty comeback....lost for words again?
JustJeni
I'm soooooooo confused. Gay? or Straight? Black? or White? Thin? or Fat? Intelligent? mmm-mmmm...
