Com2Kid's Journal: Sick and tired of the image of men as giant walking penises

Really, it gets annoying. I mean sure the man show is entertaining, but half of the damn fun of the show is that it lampoons the entire "Men all stupid idiots who just want to get laid" motif that is going around in western society these days. (err ok not exactly a new invention or nothing, but it is just more publicly spoken of these days).

It does get rather annoying.

For one thing, any guy who writes poetry is almost instantly coined either

A: Gay

B: "just trying to get some"

Now this is ignoring the entire LEGACY of poetry AS WORKS OF ART WRITTEN MOSTLY BY MEN.(albeit mostly because historically the men refused to show the woman how to write. . . .) God forbid if in history men ever wrote entire BOOKS in poetic form, my my no, can't have that now can we? Must have been all either gay guys or woman! Because we all know that straight men can't write poetry "for real".

Or the entire religion thing.

Like, err, say, nearly every single major world religion today. Nope, not a single spiritualistic guy out there! We are all just walking dicks! I mean those religions, wowies, all just sex drugs and rock and roll! And don't forget the sex! I mean yah, that bible thing, woh, written by guys, so it must go around suggesting that men bang everything with a hole in it! After all, we all know that men just want to have sex, don't we?

Artwork.

Everything made by a man is a phallic symbol. Though granted here the woman do not get off any easier, since they are considered to be going around constructing giant phallic symbols as well. . . . Bleh.

Cars, must be there just to increase perceived dick length right? No intellectual value, no engineering, nope, nothing, just some guy who sits down staring at the car for a few hours and suddenly his dick must grow larger! Cuz why else would be be interested in the car if it didn't relate somehow to his dick?

See, it gets rather A-FRIGGIN-NNOYING. Yes I DO realize that a goodly percentage of my gender ARE total dick heads, but hey, with how many freakin BILLION of us out there on the planet, do ya mind giving the occasional one or two of us a break, or at least do a bit of logical analysis of what we are saying/doing and figure out if maybe, just maybe we are doing it for some reason other then because we have a penis?

Ok ok last post on societies views(sterotypes) on men and sex for some time now. Thanks for reading. :-D

Fine

Just fill out a waiver application and we'll see about exempting you. :)

I don't know if this is media propaganda or not, but the young male people I know certainly corroborate the stereotype that men are just looking for sex. Maybe it's a viscious cycle:

Media portrays men as penises -> Men act like penises because they are supposed to -> Media sees men acting like penises and portays them as such -> etc...

Beowulf

[gmhowell]

Next time someone talks smack about poetry, you should pick up a copy of Beowulf, and beat them silly with it.

I saw "Do's and Don't's of Strip Clubs" last week on Man Show, and nearly wet myself, it was so funny.

You Forgot Tall Buildings

[cyranoVR]

Hmmm...it seems you forgot to include tall buildings! The Empire State Building, Eifel Tower, Leaning Tower of Pisa...heck even the babylonian ziggurats [haifa.ac.il]! Their builders were just "compensating" for something!

Man oh man do I get tired of that lazy "analysis"
