Feminism Is Not A Fucking Dating Service

This whole “nice guy” thing is really making the rounds on the internets.

What’s a poor, well-meaning young male to do?

The thing is, Pete continued, I don’t think girls want feminist guys! You know that whole thing where girls aren’t into nice guys but would rather have bad boys? It’s like they say they want one thing, but in reality they want another. If I want to meet girls and have fun, I have a lot more success when I don’t try and be pro-feminist. I mean, why should I be more feminist than the women around me?

And, as we all know, feminism isn’t about being a decent human being and adhering to ideas of basic human rights. It’s about getting laid.

McBoing gives our intrepid hero some much better advice than Hugo’s gentle chortling about how difficult it is to be nice and get laid.

Nice guys do get laid. Trust me. But that’s got nothing to do with feminism.

I could tell you that I really wanted to be a smart, strong woman, but men just aren’t attracted to strong, smart women. So it wouldn’t be in my best interests to be strong and smart, cause then I wouldn’t get laid. So I’d make myself less of a person in order to make other people feel better?

People would tell me I was nuts.

And smack me upside the head.

Not chortle coyly.
