Is this a joke? Please tell me it is. “The supreme gentlemen".

Also, what is a capital-Nice capital-Guy?

Those who claim to be "Nice Guys" say that because they are in fact "nice", girls reject them for more assertive/aggressive men. This is in fact rationalizing over the fact that nearly all said "Nice Guys" are complete assholes.

Also, is it bad that I could see several people on Atlas doing this? I won't name names of course.

There's nobody in New York City who needs a gun

Should citizens not have the right to fight the brutal, racist NYPD?

Right, the gun humpers need to have their deadly weapons. Can't inject some sense into matters, even after even more people get murdered in cold blood. Their Second Amendment fundamentalist ideology is more important than the right for people to live their lives without getting shot by some coward.

Honestly, I think in this particular case I'm more inclined to lay blame at the feet of the toxic MRA/PUA "culture" than guns.

Also, a friend of mine wrote this really powerful reaction in the Daily Beast that everyone ought to read.  Kind of long, and maybe you don't think you care about the main thesis of the article (which, roughly, is that the f**ked-up portrayal of women as "prizes" in nerd culture, well, f**ks us all up), but, please, read it anyway.

You must be logged in to read this quote.

I guess I expect the reaction from most quarters here to be dismissive and disappointing, but whatever.  Sometimes sh*t just needs to be said anyway.

Yeah I read that on the subway yesterday. Really great article.

Precisely; that our existing culture encourages men to be sexually aggressive (or overly assertive in general) is the problem here (women have it even worse; one is either considered a "slut" or a "prude".)
