So, who has read it?
Who else besides me goes LOL at it?

[cakegirl]

I like the part where she says men pretend to have the female characteristic of "grooviness".

[chalambok]

Was this written by a man?

I think, as I thought back in the 70s when I first read it, this is a satire. But maybe I am an oversensitive mama's boy

What does this have to do with Martial Arts, or self-defense?

This woman should have been taken to the rubber room once she wrote out what normal woman activities include;

sleeping, shopping, bowling, shooting pool, playing cards and other games, breeding, reading, walking around, daydreaming, eating, playing with themselves, popping pills, going to the movies, getting analyzed, traveling, raising dogs and cats, lolling about on the beach, swimming, watching TV, listening to music, decorating their houses, gardening, sewing, nightclubbing, dancing, visiting, `improving their minds' (taking courses), and absorbing `culture' (lectures, plays, concerts, `arty' movies).

Come on, Who calls "getting analyzed" a social activity.

and a womans "REAL" goals;

In actual fact, the female function is to explore, discover, invent, solve problems crack jokes, make music -- all with love. In other words, create a magic world.

Maybe we need a racist/shovinistic forum for this kind of stuff. I have literature that noone here would want to read. Perhaps I should post the Torah, Koran, and the bible. That would be interesting

Why did she have so much time to collect all these crazy thoughts and write them down. Oh yeah

"Even amongst groovy females deep friendships seldom occur in adulthood"

. Guess she didn't have any friends.

She could do something else though. But oh yeah I forgot.

"There is no human reason for money or for anyone to work more than two or three hours a week at the very most."

Lazy, crazy, overeducated .... with no friends. Seems like the proper candidate to write an article about psychology and how womans real function is to live in a fantasy world. I guess she's never had it rough, thinking a family can survive off of 2-3hr work weeks. Must be a very efficient hunter/gatherer. Bet her daddy took really care of her (maybe a little too much)

I actually know women like this. We call them .... Crazy.
The worst part is, they wont leave us guys alone. They have no friends, and they live life as mental cripples hoping to find a guy that will "love them just the way they are."

The truth is though; Noone loves an unrealistic crazy woman that thinks shes so much more than she is.

To think that this article was written before Crack-cocain became popular is puzzling.

Well the article got me thinking. I read it just for you Xebsgall.
I'm ready to swim through snot now

From SCUM:

""Being an incomplete female, the male spends his life attempting to complete himself, to become female. He attempts to do this by constantly seeking out, fraternizing with and trying to live through an fuse with the female, and by claiming as his own all female characteristics -- emotional strength and independence, forcefulness, dynamism, decisiveness, coolness, objectivity, assertiveness, courage, integrity, vitality, intensity, depth of character, grooviness, etc -- and projecting onto women all male traits -- vanity, frivolity, triviality, weakness, etc.""


Really...lol??

[Tom Yum]

...keep it coming.

It's foolish to assume though that males are the only ones that compete for that desired mate. As a result females also have the same problem that males do but compete in a different way.

They can get insanely competitive

[Garland]

um...that shit's pretty disgusting.
What 'bout saying shit like all women should be kept barefoot and pregnant, keepin' their feet small, because they only need to travel from the kitchen to the laundry to fetch food and clean shit?
Pretty disgusting ass assumptions, huh?
and it gives ammo to those who are already against feminism; i.e.
All women should pop pills? Fuckin' A, birth control pills and lithium. Because they's all crazy ass whores. How bout that?
Man...this type of so-called "feminist" literature just screws up decades of progress made in the women's rights movements, and, although it's not too militant, makes the so-called feminist who wrote it seem like a crazy, bull-dyke bitch. We can't create equality by seperation of rights, or stereotyping, or creating a model of who somebody should be, it's just fucked up.

Everyone complains about equal rights and equal treatments...however, although there are support groups and institutions in place to help single mothers, there is NOTHING to help single fathers.
Shit is always two sided, and nobody is ever treated equally.
All of my black and hispanic friends, although they don't do as much crazy shit as my white friends, get into shit with law enforcement, due to profiling. Urban youth (translation to a white bread honky ass utah cop "we gots some ****** robbin' shit, lets go **** 'em up, too bad we cant lynch em")

point and case; was going through a rural area with my instructors, both asian, and got pulled over for going 5 miles over the speed limit.

same area four months later; got pulled over going to a rave with a whole buch of white drug dealers and one black kid, they let us go, without searching the car, thank god, cuz I'd be fucked by association.

What I'm sayin' is, people need to be tolerant, and should just treat people based on who they are as people. If somebodies an asshole, treat them like an asshole, if they're chill, be chill. Nobody should be like, "all men are pigs"
and "all girls are either bitches or ho's"
I could go on and on...but no, man, just be civil, and relax. If you look at people in general, most aren't assholes, but the ones like whoever wrote this bullshit propaganda, are, and should be ignored, not exhalted.

Aigh't.

Just as guys get macho madness. Both characteristics can be traced back to the mating game and can get extremely out of hand.

That show....5th wheel or something.

[chalambok]

Am I the only one who finds it simply hilarious that when the authoress of the S.C.U.M. Manifesto chose to attempt an assassination to foment the women's liberation revolt, she shot that most manly of men, Andy Warhol?

What does this have to do with Martial Arts, or self-defense?

self-defense, yes...
well you see, fellow male buddy... women can easily go hysterical and this sorts of text can drive them to do a buncha silly stuff - if they believe the text that is
this would of course make rise several self-defense scenarios and situations - when women start attacking dudes, cool dudes (like myself).

[HtTKar]

Understood...
so if a girl you have your eyes on says this is her favorite book. I should take it a little slow?
I wonder how freud would explain it...

[Xebsball]

yeah man
or buy studded leather armor for your cock or some

[cakegirl]

Yay, we have our very own brand-new troll!
