Swedish Feminists Are So Bored They’re Telling Men How to Sit on the Bus

Choice quote:

Quote:VICE: Your blog claims that men who take up more space than they physically need when using public transport are practicing an "invisible and unconscious expression of power in an everyday, public space." Can men oppress women without even knowing it?
My Vingren: Absolutely. I think one of the most problematic aspects of having such an extensive power structure is that a lot of people aren't even aware that how they act affects others. The fact that men get more space in classrooms, at board meetings, and so on, is part of a structural oppression that not everyone knows they're taking part in.

It seems like many people think your blog is a joke. Why is that?
I really don't know.

Will the blog make a difference?
Of course, we're going to change the world.

Other gems like this sprinkled throughout.

Next thing you know they'll get offended by men peeing standing.

That has to be the dumbest thing I ever read.
How about because we have nads? If they get too warm, we're sterilized. Women don't have that problem.

They already have the fabled gender "equality" in sweden, so now they're looking for something to keep their female hamster train occupied and trick themselves into thinking they're still useful. What they really want is gender supremacy, which of course, will never happen with them being the weaker sex physically, emotionally, and most of all logically.

Already happened. I posted a link about this a while back, but I don't feel like finding it now. I believe it was a school in Sweden that built toilets under low ceilings to force boys to pee sitting down, because peeing while standing up is supposedly misogynistic.

My question is, would it be more offensive to pee on Gloria Steinem's grave while standing, rather than squatting?

An older friend of mine went on a trip with his wife to her friend's country home with the female friend.

My buddy caught flack from the friend for "intentionally" pissing too loud late at night.

Truth be told, women, even though the sit when urinating, piss WAY louder than men.

We are designed to be able to have quiet pissing so that we don't give away our position when hunting. That's also why we have a hose- to aim the urine to a quieter portion of foliage.

What use does the US Navy have for real men anyway? Men are too independent, violent, aggressive, brash, jingoistic, for today's smarter, softer military defense force peacekeepers.

They might even believe in antiquated, bigoted beliefs like putting the lives of your countrymen over those of random foreigners who hate your guts.

If any of you think of bringing this up in conversation with a feminist, she will say: "Not all feminists are like that! She’s a weirdo feminist so she doesn't count". They will say this spout this to every incidence of misogyny you can think of.

The dangerous things about these radical feminists is that they're more influential then the more vanilla feminists. They're more committed, more vocal, more organized, even more obsessed with rape and there's a disproportionate number of them in the upper echelons of government and policy making compared to "normal feminists". Some of them also believe that all forms of penis in vagina sex are violence against women, turn themselves lesbian and starting shooting porn for their own radfem market and secretly pray on their internet forums that one day males will become extinct.

Women could also spread their legs in bus who could have objections?

Sounds like what you'd hear in a conversation about religion.

You know what takes up more space on the bus than is necessary?

Fat women.

Ha I like this biological point you made.

I agree: women do piss louder than men. Godamn it's so fucking loud sometimes I wonder if she's trying to piss away a 2 litre-full bladder in a matter of 5 seconds. Hamster logic: I pee faster so noise doesn't matter.

I never take these sort of stories too seriously. The women spouting this rubbish are almost always what I refer to as "FALF's". Fat Angry Lesbian Feminists. They are a tiny proportion of any population, even in Sweden and are so disagreeable personally that no normal man, or woman, has any interest in what they think.

Pretty soon just being male will become qualifying material as a misogynist.

This is kind of a weird statement. I'm a veteran and I'm quite proud of the fact that the American military conducts itself in a fairly humane manner compared to most terrorist organizations and armies past.

Are you saying that real men want to go back to some biblical form of warfare where you invade a city, kill the men, rape the women and dash the heads of all the babies against rocks? I'm not sure how any of that makes you a man.

Although, America still kills plenty of civilians if that makes you feel better.

Pretty sure that it already means that to some.

Interacting with whiteknighters reminds me of when I'm talking to someone afflicted with white guilt. (Am black)

Most Vice articles are trash and the comments are full of idiot hipsters. Good videos and documentaries though.

But, but, but they're not fat. They are BBW or curvy or about average. It's all us dumbbell men who don't notice their inner beauty.


I actually heard a similar story between to obese chicks the other day. One was all distraught, because I guess some guy at work doesn't notice her. The other squishy mess said, "Girl, it's up to him to notice your inner beauty. He's the one missing out." I chuckled.
