itt blogs instruct you how to be a man

no. 200: "let her know there's a private world that you and her share that is chock-full of acrimony and bitterness"

djp i really don't have a problem with promoting courtesy, respect, civility, discretion, & other 'gentlemanly' virtues, whatever, but a lot of this 'advice' is just weighed down with so much gender insecurity and total cluelessness.

All I'm saying is that the tone you were seeing in the initial ones you posted seemed like they were reaching for the worst possible interpretation; out of context from some of the later ones, I don't think they are terrible pieces of advice, but taken as a whole I totally agree with you.

if you imagine these as written by a paedophile many make a more sinister form of sense.

"i've just been to the doctors, it's extremely bad ne"

"SHUT UP DARLING!"

i can assure you that no matter the intent, this shit gets reblogged in total sincerity. i can't go on tumblr to look at menswear blogs without one of these bits of fucked up advice popping up on my dashboard.

OK if that's true than that's completely fucked up.

Not quite sure what this one means in all honesty.

x-post I think that only gash might be worse euphemism.

Yeah, 34. What does it even mean?

If a girl admits that she likes _____, know that it took every ounce of courage in her to say that.

haha dan i was kinda o_0 at the gentlemanly wisdom of "if you give her sperm she'll give you a baby" i mean

my mind is blown dude. rewriting the rulebook!

#34 is "it's about the personality"

haha dan i was kinda o_0 at the gentlemanly wisdom of "if you give her sperm she'll give you a baby" i mean

well obv that is ridiculous and not necessarily true, but that's not really the important part of the advice, which is "don't be a dick to her"

http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2007/11/365-days-307---.html

are there any actually non-crazy bits of advice here?

a couple but not many

"Never aggressively roar at her to question whether she should be living in your town"

hmmm...weird, anyone shed any light??

the good grammer one is sort of odd coming from someone who is responsible for the sentence "boobs or butts doesn't matter". also "bro's"

grammer, yes

we have noticed a few people sending in messages regarding the similarity between

gosh that's a long word

Are we already running out of lol material at this blog?

Okay why is #79 objectionable? Do you think your SO should be the first one to get hit if a car jumps the curb?

eh dan i kinda read that first piece of advice as more "if you call her out on anything she will transform into a wretched nagging harpy."

That is exactly what I meant re: the worst possible interpretation.

Incredible

i get irrationally annoyed at the "i can't stop thinking about..." framework, but for the first time in forever, i read that and now i really can't stop thinking about that part at the end where one of the guys is lamenting that they didn't use cups instead

Stick around for this sub-thread too

It's all sorts of insanity like that. Last year I went to Cozumel on a dive trip with my dad and brother. The one guy on our boat spent the entire trip grilling me on why I didn't like Donald Trump, and then in the resort pool...
