About disorders and other things women and girls do to be pretty
I was looking up on the different things that women and girls will do to themselves to be pretty and I was having an extremely difficult time finding ANYTHING AT ALL. Most of what I found were different beauty tips, so I included the word “disorder” in my search and it gave me some things about eating disorders. I tried a bunch of other search words and still could barely find anything other than “tanning is bad, don’t do inserts or botox, makeup is bad, bulimia exists...” and I found this article called “5 Reasons Why Girls with Mental Disorders Should Be Shunned” and, out of curiosity I decided to give it a look thinking maybe it could give me some insight on my search. Nope. It was just some dick named “Matt Forney” and from what I’ve read about it--you know what I’m just going to go read it. Here, you can, too.

Okay, so I read the article and I’m even more disgusted by this than I’d initially been after seeing “They’re Whiny”, “They’re Slutty”, “They’re Self Absorbed”, I’m even more pissed.
Sorry there’s no “keep reading” but I felt like this was too important.
Feel free to continue this discussion. If you’re a dude that agrees with these articles, go ahead and comment and, hopefully, we can convince you to value women as human beings instead of objects and convert you to a feminist where we believe the genders are equal and should be treated as such. We hope you realize that it’s not okay to be a dick and that you’re killing people with your narrow views on life.
First off “’anxiety’”. In quotation marks. Like, “anxiety is just something girls do to get attention. It isn’t real and anyone telling you otherwise is just some crazy girl.” AND OH MY GOD “if she needs anti-depressants she won’t be able to handle having children, cleaning up the house, and performing her womanly duties” I AM CRYING OVER HERE THIS IS HYSTERICAL WHAT MAKES THIS GUY THINK THIS IS WHAT GIRLS ARE SUPPOSED TO DO? WHO FUCKING RAISED THIS DUMBASS? Yeah, because in the bright year this was made (2015) there was no such thing as feminism, you know? I swear it’s like the movement DIDN’T start in the 19th century lol I can’t believe guys like this still exist. I bet he still doesn’t have a girlfriend because I’m certain girls have more self-respect than this. What does this guy think about all of the men on anti-depressants? Having children, cleaning house? Those are not “womanly duties”. Those are optional. Women don’t have to have children. Men can clean the damn house. It’s not a woman’s job to do that shit. “And other womanly duties”, oh I think he means being a CEO of a company, being a doctor, being a mathematician, being a scientist, and a myriad of other things women have accomplished. Sure women can have children, sure women can clean house, but not a one is gonna do that shit for that asshole. No lady’s going to want to spread that man’s genes.
“It goes without saying that women who sleep around are Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs” okay so what about men who sleep around? I’m guessing he has to because no woman is going to want to get with him if, you know, they talk to him, so yeah, what about men? Is he calling every man who sleeps around crazy, too? And who is he to say that a woman can’t enjoy herself? Certainly, if a woman cheats on her boyfriend that’s wrong (it makes her rude, she should just break up with the dude if she doesn’t like him) but that’s certainly not what this guy means. According to studies, men are more suited to monogamy than women saying, “While some would say that this means the women have an easier time being monogamous because their sex drive has gone down, sex experts would say that this is not the healthy state for these women,” not the other way around. If anything, women who’ve had more partners are more likely to be able to notice a bad relationship. (I had a link for that but I lost it, whatever google it lol.) AND SOMEBODY SAY SOMETHING ABOUT THE PICTURE FOR THIS BEING A WOMAN HOLDING A SIGN THAT SAYS “THIS IS NOT AN INVITATION TO RAPE ME” WHAT THE FUCK IS HE TRYING TO SAY? IT’S OKAY TO RAPE WOMEN? LIKE FUCK IT IS! (that means no and here, no means no)
Um, yeah there’s a word for that and it has nothing to do with mental illnesses. It’s called confidence and 99% of guys actually find that super hot. And girls and whoever else. I’m a perfectly straight lady but I’d totally go gay for a lady with confidence. “Virtually all girls are full of themselves to a certain degree” yeah, that’s called confidence. “But modern technology and our you-go-grrl culture of artificially inflating girls’ self-esteem has pushed female narcissism into the stratosphere.” (Wow I looked at that link and it leads to a website by the same guy and my computer went “boop boop boop threat has been detected” it was fucking hilarious. Yes, computer, I detect the threat as well lol) and this guy is actually trying to say that the girls-supporting-other-girls and girls-helping-other-girls-be-more-confident-in-themselves thing is a bad thing? Okay then, sorry Mr. Mike whats-your-face but you basically just said “I hate that girls are dressing for themselves and feeling good about themselves wow that really gets me, bro.” Just, just read the article oh my God. This guy is so full of himself I can’t even. Saying things like confident girls are only trying to validate themselves with men. That’s wrong. Totally wrong. Ladies aren’t trying to use men for validation. Sorry to deflate your ego, Mr. Whatever (no I’m not), but a lady doesn’t need ANY man to validate her. If she needs someone to help her feel better about herself 1) she’s not going to diss on the opposite gender just to do it (like some people a.k.a. this dude) 2) she’ll go to her mom or sister or best friend or someone she, you know, cares about the opinion of. That sure as hell isn’t going to be some boyfriend she just started dating that wasn’t even her friend first. If she feels insecure and wants to be REASSURED that she’s good enough, she’ll go to her best friend (male or female or other) and say something like “I don’t think he likes me” and you know what they’ll say? “Oh, you are way hot. Did he say something to you? Who the fuck cares if he likes you if he said something to you I’ll beat the shit out of him where is he! No one gets to be an asshole to my best friend!” And if the guy really is being an asshole and believes in this guy’s list, then it’s really only a matter of time before she dumps the guy and dates her best friend and they live happily ever after so fuck you, dude. No girl would be straight and all guys would be straight if they all had the same personality as this dick.
(Side note: my very male, sadly straight, best friend sent me this text after I had him read the article, “Wtf / This article is fucking bs / It’s written by a stereotypical douchebag, the kind of person I would beat the shit out of in Middleschool” honestly, he’s a blessing and he definitely shows that not all men are total assholes and he gives me hope for men as a gender)
“To those who think that religion or conservative values can redeem a narcissistic girl, think again. My last long-term American girlfriend was a devout Christian from a flyover state, but she was just as hooked on social media attention whoring as the coastal degenerates. Her Twitter and Instagram accounts were a nonstop barrage of pouty selfies and polite humblebrags, each Like from her male orbiters inflating her ego like a water balloon. I also later found out that she’d been hiding a second “boyfriend” (in quotes because they didn’t have sex) from me.” Okay so the reason this guy’s having a hissy fit and making up shit about women is because his ex-girlfriend had “a secret boyfriend” (a.k.a. male best friend) that she probably looked to for help with her shitty douchebag boyfriend (I hope she and that friend are together because he must have helped her realize the dude was a dick--if she didn’t already--and encourage her to end it asap) and she just happened to be a confident Christian woman. And about her selfie-posting on social media? So what? And he calls it “attention-whoring”. How many selfies did he post with sunshades, a hat, with his shirt off in the bathroom mirror? I’m gonna guess... a lot. Maybe he calls it “attention-whoring” for likes from “her male orbiters inflating her ego like a water balloon” because he posts his selfies hoping for likes to inflate his own ego like a water balloon when every girl says lovely things like “nice spray-on abs” and “here’s my number: 911 ;) call me”. Besides that, Christianity is a lifestyle, not a title, so those who are homophobic, misogynistic, etc, and claim to be Christians are DEFINITELY NOT real Christians. I’m Christian and I’ve been taught my ENTIRE LIFE that God is about loving everyone, no matter what, and forgiving those who’ve wronged you. You can forgive someone without going back to them. You can love someone that’s wronged you. Forgiving isn’t about letting them hurt you again, it’s about moving on from those that have hurt you and not letting them stay with you to keep hurting you, even thought they’re long gone. So this guy being a dick? Couldn’t even claim to be a Christian because he’s looking down on others, not loving his neighbor, saying “fuck you” to Commandments 5 & 9 (honor your father and mother and don’t bear false witness, respectively) (I totally had to look those up, whatever). Basically, the 10 Commandments amount to “don’t be a dick”, so, yeah.
“If you’ve ever thought about slumming it with a fat girl because you think they’re nicer than thin ones, think again: fatties are more likely to be mentally ill.” Okay, first off, what constitutes as a “fat girl” to this guy? Because, depending on which girls you ask, it’s different. There are grown women who are severely underweight for their height who consider themselves fat because men like this dick are out there saying a girl has to be skin-and-bones to be good enough. It’s because of the media prioritizing men like this that so many women have “mental disorders” and are so concerned with their appearance that they’ll kill themselves. (I’m having way too hard of a time trying to find this even though I know it’s true because I’ve heard about it. Wow it’s almost like society is trying to ignore what they’re doing to women and people in general with all of their appearance-shaming.) Okay, so according to this, only .1% out of 4% of women with bulimia will actually survive. That’s fucking terrifying and incredibly sad. There are other statistics on the site, including male eating disorder statistics (even though this is dissing one man, we can’t forget the actual--sadly few--good men that aren’t assholes). He goes on to say that women should shower daily, smell a certain way at all times, and can’t take a day off. Okay, so are women allowed to get sick? Feel too upset with their shitty misogynistic boyfriend that they really don’t care that they don’t live up to the asshole’s approval? Maybe if you treated her better she would think “I think I’ll dress up today, a little present for him SINCE HE EARNED IT AND ISN’T A MISOGYNISTIC ASSHOLE” and what’s wrong with a girl who doesn’t need to shower daily because she doesn’t have oily skin or hair that she needs to constantly manage? You want a girl to smell like fucking roses every fucking day? Well, you can spritz your blow-up doll, if you want. So sorry if, you know, women are human beings that sweat and sleep and function. Did this guy even pay attention in high school? LADIES SMELL! IT’S NATURAL! I bet he doesn’t shower every day and I bet every so often he skips a shower to sit on his ass like “make me a sandwich woman; why don’t you ever clean the house; wyd”. In fact, I’m sure all he ever does is sit on his ass expecting to be pampered by a lady. And just because a woman is considered “overweight” to you, mister, doesn’t mean she’s automatically going to reek (#got). The sheer amount of lovely “overweight” ladies who would turn me gay in an instant is just overwhelming and they smell fucking delightful with their roses perfume. They shower. We all fucking shower but not even a literal squirrel would bathe themselves for someone like that guy.
“They’re Manipulative and Violent”
Oh, so you mean like you CLEARLY are? Wow, that’s a little hypocritical of you (and so he ignored his girlfriend and she felt she had to confront him about it and when she did he got mad and was pissed that she felt like she deserved anything other than sex like, probably, having her boyfriend listen to her?) (Is this guy ever going to realize that, maybe just MAYBE, the reason why he can’t keep a girlfriend isn’t the fault of girls in general but his? I mean, it seems like this dude thinks every ex he’s ever had is fucking mental? I think that’s called a sign that it’s not the woman’s problem?) “The ideal girlfriend is emotionally stable, naturally happy, and lives to please you.” OH MY GOD ARE ALL OF HIS LINKS LINKS TO HIMSELF?!?! XD that’s not a reference or citation, dumbass. This is a citation and this is a reference. You’re Welcome™.
Feel free to add on anything I missed or anything you want to add or whatever. Have at it. Go nuts. It’s people like this dick that are making it so damn hard to find ANYTHING on the important issues of society like what they’re encouraging women to do to be beautiful.
