The Order of Men

Crankyfeet

You mean...Men who can see through you for spewing out the kind of redundant and discriminatory crap that your article displays. Why would any REAL man need to join your web forum to learn how to become a man? Or...oh that's right...your Order of Men ARE all the real men....you just want to put the gays and metrosexuals in their place.

The KKK was an analogy. Your article characterized today's society as tending towards equal gender roles ("feminization"). Your article suggested that we as men have lost our way compared to yesteryear. It is no coincidence that yesteryear was a more patriarchal society.


Angry? Only in the sense that you are using this forum to plug your website. Not in the slightest bit angry at your article. Where did you get the impression I was angry?
And I thought that taking your article seriously was probably paying you too much of a compliment. But what are you trying to tell us? That you were not serious?....That your website/Order of Men is really just a joke endeavor?


So you want to change other men into the mold that you think they should be? Aren't you a regular magnanimous and charitable warrior. The characteristic of a person wanting to change others to fit that person's own mold is precisely the characteristic I despise.


No...I think you like females...who do what they're told.


Nice try Spam Sham.

Of course it means something, else Shaw wouldn't have created it.

That says nothing about you, though. It's just a quote that says nothing about you at all. Now, I suppose that you'd like people to believe that it does say something about you, that some correlation can be made between the essence of that quote and what you think you're all about; however, it appears, at least by the wife beater manifesto you posted, that quote is really meaningless in terms of you. It seems to be an opportunity to blow on your thumb and pump your chest up, all the while hopeful that everyone will see what a principled manly man you think you are.

Alas, you're strutting; the quotes you google, cut and paste; and your club for guys who feel inadequate all combine to make you look like your posing, hoping that no one notices how small you feel, how slighted you are by the mean way that society, in your eyes, has feminized your studliness.

No one needs to join the site, hell you didn't need to join cyclingforums.com but you did it for the sense of community, contacts, and great information. It's the same way with Order of Men, except apparently the article is spewing the kind of message I don't wan't in our forums. Although reading some of your articles have made me frustratedd, in the end it did exactly what I needed. You guys gave me the critiscm I needed to correct my mistakes. Which is wierd because I'm mad at you, yet I thank you if that makes any sense.

You have a good point there


haha funny guy, I get it now



I really had no intent to mold anyone, I guess it was more of a rant then anything. Something that other guys could look at and take notice and try to be a better "person" overall. Obviously it didn't have the affect that I wanted it

Hahaha, if you only met my girlfriend you'd realize how funny that seems. I've been in a situation with a girl like that before and hated every minute of it. Her father was deeply for the old ways of MAN>Woman and a lot of that seemed to rub off on her. Couldn't believe what I had gotten myself into, and quickly got out of it.

Please give me one reference of that article that would suggest it is somehow a wife beater manifesto?


Oh and I'm glad I could fulfill your probably otherwise typical boring saturday afternoon. I just find it funny how much energy you put into your posts, I really question what it is you yourself is trying to prove on here.

Is this the kind of place you like to feel all high and mighty. A place you come to let your mouth go because you know otherwise in the real world you'd be one to sit back in fear with your mouth shut?

I understand alot of your anger/words are coming because of the way I presented this thread, but seriously, why keep going at it? It's not my fault the mods/admin of your sanctuary have sold out for profits and wont let me edit/delete my thread. Seems like an endless waste of time you continue to spend here standing up and fighting. I'm truly sorry if this is the only thing you have going for you in life right now.

You mean he doesn't have his own website for men who've lost their way like you have?

No...you are not a strong "man". You are obviously a whimp. The Order of Men is an appeal to fellow whimps to come together and convince each other that you are "honorable knights" and really studly, and not what society has pegged you as...ie. a bunch of whimps...

You do realize your comments have absolutely no grounds and all you are really doing is keeping this thread that you "think" is spam at the top for people to see and click on the link? And you call yourself one? On a Saturday afternoon you get your kicks over degrading other people on the internet, truly sad you find so much appeal in it. Either give me some good suggestions or get a life, but don't continue to waste anymore of your life or lack there of in here.

Same goes for you alienator. I'm going to let you in on a little secret my little one side minded friend , your whole "crusade" agaist the so called "spam" is only increasing it. By replying, you only keep it at the top instead of letting it fade away out of view.

Here's a suggestion for a replacement second paragraph, that fits in with the message and style of your article:

Being a man means being manly. Manliness though has been lost in this day and age. Once a man was a male who oozed manliness. He was attentive to his manhood in a self-loving way that nourished his masculinity. Today, males and men who have lost their male-like qualities, yearn for some man virtue. They see that society is holding them back from expressing their manhood and accepting the manhood of other men. But men can appreciate each other's manhood. In the Order of Men, we massage our manhoods, and come together spreading masculinity to each other, happy to be together sharing our love for men, manliness, and man-handling.

Well, peaches, your not any target of any crusade against SPAM. No, you'd be the target of a crusade against tools, if there was a crusade. Alas, there is no crusade. I'm just enjoying the comic relief provided by you.

FWIW, I've spent all of about 4-6 minutes, if that, typing in this thread. Is that a lot? Typing can go really fast. Really.

I am tempted to make a witty, cutting remark about this thread. Instead I will leave you with this pic:

Bro, that's EXACTLY the kind of bunny they don't need in the Order of Bunnies.

He does look a little soft. He may have been corrupted by feminists. I am sure he can be turned back into a real bunny with a little deprogramming.
