supports the right of men to shoot prostitutes if they refuse to have sex:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10022957451#post138


In this case, the law protected someone from being robbed by a prostitute. If that were all this law did it would be silly, but that's not the purpose. It was written to protect someone like me -- or, rather, to allow someone like me to protect myself.



views of women as prey animals with mens' proper role as predators of women:


http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1018&pid=386327


Since you clearly need actual help allow me to advise you. I will be blunt:

Alpha the hell up.

Forget cuddling and sensitivity, forget listening and being their best girlfriend ever, forget everything you learned as a boy about what women want, and for god's sake don't listen to the advice of any females. If I were to guess you are probably a NICE guy who cares a great deal about other people. More, I suspect that to you women are special magical creatures deserving of respect and consideration and pursuit -- you probably believe that you aren't good enough for them. Hell, your post says as much.

Wipe that BS out of your mind right now. You're smart, which means you probably tried to figure all this stuff out logically, based on the information you have been given all your life, and when it doesn't work you assume the problem is you. It's not. The problem isn't YOU, it's with the information you have been given. As they say, garbage in garbage out.

Confidence with women, like anything in life, just takes a little practice. Fortunately there are quite a few women out there to practice on. So turn on your brain and apply it to the problem. Instead of trying to do what everyone says you are supposed to do, instead do what WORKS -- in your case that would be the opposite of what hasn't worked thus far. Talk to every attractive woman you see. Say hello, ask them out to coffee, offer them a fifty for a blow job. Whatever. Go ahead and fuck up, it's okay -- there are a hundred million more of them so who the hell cares. Stop giving a damn what they think. Stop CARING so damn much, stop liking them and worshipping them. Fuck that, if they want to be treated well they can damn well earn it. I

f you are having trouble finding the confidence to get started, that's easy to fix too. PRETEND. You think Brad Pitt is really as "cool" as he seems in the movies? You think Tom Cruise really does the impossible? Hell no. It's called acting. So the next time you're feeling nervous ACT like one of these guys. Ask yourself how James Bond would ask out this woman, and do that. Believe it or not, that's how you build successful habits. And for Cthuhlu's sake don't fall in love with the first chick that you win. You're a wolf, a predator, so keep hunting.
Anyway, good hunting my friend.


overtly sexist taunts towards women who seek equality:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=3737051


Where Dr. King climbed to the mountaintop, showed us the promised land, and invited us to enter, the modern feminist one so often sees today has no vision, no promised land, and offers only rejection and (often misplaced and incoherent) self-righteous anger. She is Fred Phelps in a pants-suit.

It's not appealing and uninspiring. It does not invite participation or discussion. So if 80% of the public at large reject her and those like her, it's no wonder -- she rejected them first.


And, of course, favors repealing Obamacare:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=3695251

Our party should be the one trying to repeal this thing...

Seriously, this is ludicrous. I can think of no better way to drive these people to the GOP.


http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=2163036

Within a decade Obamacare will be viewed as a curse

And for those who understand it, it already is.
