When Commenters Demand Gross Realism

[ShelbyDawn57]

Why?

Part of me wants to explain it to you in excruciating detail. The bigger part just wants you to hold me and tell me you understand.
EDIT: and maybe hand me the fucking screw driver...

I would hold you, but I would not understand. Misogyny and mansplaining has always angered me

 

[Britva415]

Mansplaining is fundamentally men believing that they are somehow intrinsically wiser and smarter than women, I guess based on their anatomy. I don't know when that level of disrespect turns into enough hatred to be called misogyny. But it is definitionally built of a deep rooted disrespect for women, which is pretty damned close to misogyny if it doesn't reach it.

This is why I said "to some people:"

There are many others who do not have the above in mind when they fling the word around. Half the time, it's literally just namecalling anymore. They say it just because they know it will provoke defensiveness.

My apologies. I thought you were arguing that mansplaining wasn't that bad. Of course, I do not see the term thrown around inaccurately all that often. I just see it excused as not that bad.

For most topics, I agree 100% with you. However when it comes to pregnancy and childbirth, 99.999% of males should zip it

One very very hot take I have about mansplaining is this:

A man can't talk to a woman the same way he can talk to a man. Something that he can say to a man which is not called mansplaining, he cannot say the exact same thing the exact same way with the exact same intentions (in other words, none of this) to a woman or it's called mansplaining.

If I didn't think that it was just a misunderstanding of his motivations, which I already think is wrong and indefensible, then I would think it was gaslighting and sexist.

I'm not even saying a man can't mansplain to a man, it happens, I'm talking about a double standard.

I've witnessed plenty of men mansplain to other men, though.

There are certainly some men (and some women) who are just arrogant towards everyone. But I have more often seen unqualified men explaining something to a woman but conceding to an equally unqualified second man

Did he date a midwife? Or did he have a 60 second speed date session with a woman who claimed to be a midwife?

a 60 second speed date session with a woman who claimed to be a midwife?

I know what you mean, but I'm now picturing a gender-flipped Seinfeld where women make up professions to improve their dating chances.

Georgina: A midwife? Why did you tell him I was a midwife?
Jenny: Well, I know how you think guys are intimidated by you being a firewoman, so I wanted to say something feminine.
Georgina: A midwife isn't feminine, Jenny. It's gross, that's what it is. A midwife? Really? You couldn't have told him literally anything else?
Jenny: He was hot, I was flustered. So what should I have said?
Georgina: Well, you were right in theory, but you can't just throw out any female-majority profession. If you say primary school teacher they're going to think you want kids straight away. If you say nurse, they're going to think you're okay handling all kinds of disgusting bodily fluids. Nah, just say fashion. It's nice and simple and guarantees absolutely no follow-up questions. But you know what the absolute best profession to go with is?
Jenny: What?
Georgina: Marine Biologist. It's gold, Jenny! Gold! Say you're a marine biologist and suddenly the guy is subliminally thinking you're secretly a mermaid.
Jenny: I don't think they're thinking that.
Georgina: Subliminally, Jenny! Subliminally!

Having the son-father there at the birth is novel, and witnessing how painful the end-game of ecstatically cum-drenching her cunt is for the seed-carrier, that's also fairly innovative. But the reality of their joyous fucking's consequences end there. For that was one impossibly clean birth, the bathtub she delivered in could almost be seen as a metaphor for how immaculate it was. Giving birth is invariably wet and messy. It's also very bloody. There's also the matter of bodily functions. Although the author mentions her prior 'emptying her bladder' that would be like a few drips of water from a crack in a dyke. In terms of her bodily-functions, soon the dyke will split open and the floodgates will be overwhelmed. I once dated a midwife and she told me how many women wouldn't have their partner at the birth for fear of pooping in front of him . Giving her a strong enema some hours before didn't guarantee a crap-free delivery. She also told me that at the posher maternity hospitals the facemask the father is forced to wear during deliveries is impregnated with deodorant so he won't have the embarassment of having to smell the birth. It's at best 'ambitious' that the author tries to turn the delivery into a sexy form of foreplay: "he gently stroked and licked her erect nipples". For at this point a ball of flesh four times the size of her vagina is trying to squeeze through a hole a weasel couldn't get through. But then I suppose fantasy breedings beget fantasy birthings. No mention of an umbilical chord, is it still attached? And the "gurgle in her belly" postpartum that she still had to push out between her legs. What did they do with her placenta? Store it in the fridge and sprinkle it on their pizza some months later, when they're going at it for a third bump in her belly.?? In summary very suburban, very spotless breeding-birthing fantasy.

Conclusion:

Misogynistic cowardly ignorant mansplaining.

I gotta say it - THIS comment is worth preserving! I love the ones like this that are so way out there - I'd be trying to think of a way to take this and write it into a story. It's a classic! The wording!!!! "....at this point a ball of flesh four times the size of her vagina is trying to squeeze through a hole a weasel couldn't get through..." I'm rotflmao

Honestly, I would be proud to get a comment this lengthy, detailed, articulate and bizarre!

Write a story about a mother and specifically mention her pubic hair. It's guaranteed to get a 500-word essay from Anonybush.

The comment that started this thread is from my "A Mother's Lust" I/T series. The mom's hairy bush got rave reviews from readers.
