I’m with you. That author needs a couple doses of toxic masculinity.Not upset, per se. Just had a lot of involuntary eye-rolling reading it.
Maybe it's because many of my fondest memories involve my dad and I canoeing, boating, fishing. For FFS, at least ACT like you have things under control and that you don't need mommy/wifey to bail you out. I don't think that's giving in to the patriarchy, it's having some goddamn human dignity and self-respect.
No kidding there. I think I got through a couple of the “pages” and said f this crapYou owe me a couple minutes of my life back.
This coming from a guy that screwed me out of the WPOTY the past 2 seasons.
Nothing manlier than right in the open taking something that rightfully belongs to another man and there not being a damn thing that guy or anybody else can do about it.
Sorry buddy, I'm a meat eater. Just like your mom.So resident soy-boy feels masculine calling another softie a soy-boy , after get so damn angry at the New Yorker. You can't make this stuff up.
I would have said for the same reason sprinters in the Olympics don't wear pants. It makes them run faster."Wonder Woman is pantsless because of Rape Culture. The toxic masculinity of mid 20th century comic book writers compelled them to make sure any power women had, like bullet-blocking bracelets or magic lassoes, had to be counterbalanced with gender-normative sexuality such as wearing blue panties instead of pants."
Well that is because you are a smart, rational person.I would have said for the same reason sprinters in the Olympics don't wear pants. It makes them run faster.
Nobody like a try-hard pal. You're just going to have be a piece of sh!t the old fashioned way if you want a shot at the title.This coming from a guy that screwed me out of the WPOTY the past 2 seasons.

The drawings were pretty nice.My main takeaway is that like 0.5% of the population ruminate on stupid bullshit like this.
I'm not talking about the overall philosophy of not imbuing your kids with proscribed roles from the past, a lot of parents consider things like that, others consider other factors.
I'm talking about this statement:

Get the fvck out of here man. You raise your kid full time while your wife works. Good for you, it's a good job. Lots of guys do it. You do it because she makes more than you can and has a more important career, and your job allows you to, and it's the best strategy for your family...just like everyone else who isn't rambling on about the patriarchy.
Just live your damn life like everyone else does with little successes and failures every day. Who needs your bullshit about how your arrangement is actually a very high minded and moral crusade, and some random meaningless shit you suck at is really a sign of your virtue and Very Goodness.
This doesn't make me mad or offend me in the content, I just find it annoying that these weird navel-gazing masturbatory ruminations are so common among the intelligentsia. I mean I get it that the New Yorker isn't exactly lowest common denominator stuff, but it's still crazy that he thought this was meaningful enough to create and send out into the word, AND a host of editors thought "Yes, this does have relevance to people." This is really niche blog shit.
The drawings were pretty nice.
Other than that, you nailed it!
You're gonna love this one!!!The drawings were mid at best.
😁
The truth is, this is, in terms of relevance to actual people, the equivalent of one of those (ridiculed) things where some nerd is SHOOK because in Season 2 Episode 4 Spock says he can't use a phaser in a low gravity environment, but then in Season 4 Episode 9, he DOES use a phaser on planet Splorgedick, EVEN THOUGH in Season 3 Episode 2, Picard SPECIFICALLY refers to Splorgedick as a 4.9x category planet which BY DEFINITION is a LOW GRAVITY ENVIRONMENT. W...T...F?
That's the equivalent of how totally nerd-niche this guy's Very Important and Very Good self examination of his not being able to roll a boat because of toxic patriarchy or whatever. Even Democrats or liberals don't think this way, it's the obsession of an extremely narrow slice of coastal post-grad white wealthy cocktail party socialists.
Every time I see this kind of thing show up in Serious Cultural Publications, I roll my eyes.
Wonder Woman has superhuman speed. Why would pants slow her down?I would have said for the same reason sprinters in the Olympics don't wear pants. It makes them run faster.
That's WHY she has superhuman speed. She doesn't wear pants.Wonder Woman has superhuman speed. Why would pants slow her down?
All I know is I don't have superhuman speed when I take my pants off. It feels like I'm running faster, but really I'm not.That's WHY she has superhuman speed. She doesn't wear pants.It's aerodynamics or some shit like that.
This New Yorker illustrated cartoon story is beyond ridiculous. I want to punch this soft-ass dork right in his soy-boy face! (Guess I'm still a slave to the patriarchy, sigh.)
