Freemales - FFS!
Not quite sure where I’m going to go with this rant but from watching the TV this morning and learning about Freemales, so far I’m pretty un-impressed, so click on the link, have a read and join me in an adventure down FFS lane.
Lets start with a feature on BBC1 Sunday morning dross tv, on the ‘Freemale’ subject. It features a 20 something woman who considers herself to be one, some 50 year old bat and the two presenters, a typical air headed has-been woman and a guy who comes across as gay as a day… so no real help there for the heterosexual man. Why is this a crucial omission? Well because the interview, like anything to do with this sort of shit, turned into a man-bash.
Surprisingly the 20 something woman is largely irrelevant in this rant, she doesn’t hate men, or think they are crap, or in fact say anything sexist at all. She is just influenced heavily by ‘Sex in the City’ and is, imo, to young and daft to realise she just enjoys being independent. The interviewers are also irrelevant because they are opinion-less fuckwits.
The hag though, well she’s got an agenda. I personally reckon she turned up at the studio with a signed first edition of ‘The female eunuch’ in the back pocket, and a set of knitting needles ready to deal with any woman stupid enough to get inseminated by a man! Yes readers, it’s my guess that she is somewhat of a feminist.
Now, I could write all day about feminists, but we’ll save that, but she definitely seems like the kind who have been turned by a ‘bad’ experience with a bloke. Perhaps an ex who shagged her sister, or potted the brown without asking first, fuck knows but she dives straight into some good old (but subdued for the beeb) man-bashing.
Hag is convinced that men have no idea how to handle an independent young woman (oops, no sorry ‘freemale’) because we are not emotionally mature enough to realise that a 21st century woman may not want a relationship (and of course the un-mentioned notion that ‘freemales’ may just want us for sex and run). This made me laugh because in my experience it has always been the other way round, I know I’m not the only man to hear the dreaded ‘I love you’ after hooking up with a woman for one night, and lets face it normally a woman chosen on the basis that the nightclub was kicking out and all the pretty ones had trapped off with the bouncers.
Hag feels that men could be scared and confused by a woman who doesn’t want kids… bah, can’t even start to say enough about how retarded that sentiment is, so lets just leave my response to ‘bollocks’.
Lets move away from the shower of shite that is Sunday morning TV and back to the article, which doesn’t concentrate on man-bashing, but does quote ’sex in the city’ (more later)
The article I linked to above makes me laugh, ok it’s the daily mail, but damn it surpasses my expectations of vacuous shite. I have to try and ignore that they pulled a ‘relationship psychotherapist’ and a ‘Sociologist’ out of the bag to lend credence to the insanity.
It says that more and more women are boycotting relationships for happiness and I feel suggests that Men are the ones who create unhappiness. It’s just a bunch of fucking control freaks (the women) who, once in a relationship seek to control every aspect of them, they don’t respect their partners right to relative freedom, push him away and eventually lead to the lack of happiness for both. Ok that’s also an unfair, sweeping statement, but I bet it’s closer to the truth. It also works the other way around, I know, but men who seek control, value independence, want one-night stands don’t get a catchy media friendly title, no they are simply labelled as ‘Bastards’.
Part of the reason given for being a ‘freemale’ is that relationships can sometimes fail, and that they are ‘hard work’… So we get even closer to the truth, in this day people don’t want to work for life’s prizes, they don’t want to invest to get returns, they want everything NOW and they fucking deserve it! My arse, simply naive, idiotic crap.
Be single, that’s cool, if you don’t want a partner, fine, if you can’t get one, also fine, whatever, this blog isn’t to council fuck ugly loners, but don’t label those of us who enjoy being with someone and have relationships that exist perfectly alongside professional working requirements and busy social lives as some sort of bad thing.
So, any woman badging herself as a freemale is missing something, there is a gap, I’d even bet they yearn after being in love and just totally fail at it. I think this because people who are happy and content with their lot don’t have to feel like they are in a club, seeking absolution for your own in-adequacies shouts out that you are infact not happy and basically full of shit.
Oh, I said earlier I’d write about ‘Sex in the city’ but I just can’t be arsed, the show centres around four women who are all desperate for Mr. Right and are just far to self-obsessed and air headed to keep them. It is not about four women who have a series of adventures punctuated by wild sex with strangers (although that does seem to happen occasionally). Never-the-less they are not four happy-to-be-single women, and bollocks anyway it’s fiction, modelling yourself after a show/movie? Ok I just watched American Psycho… where did i put that chainsaw?
