Mansplain It to Me Harder, Daddy — Blocking the Rude and Delusional Men of the Online World

Feels so good!

I’m on a banning spree. Target: mansplainers. Repeat offenders got the axe today.

It was getting quite weird. There were so many of them that I was imagining myself playing a first-person shooter, with a firing rifle at the center of the screen. But I digress… these are violent incel dreams. I prefer to block and forget.

You see, I’ve never played a video game. I’ve also never gone hunting, never hit anyone, and if I find a spider inside I trap and release it.

Squashing is murder. I find violence abhorring.

However, since I started my online journey, I’ve constantly been the target of poor misguided men who imagine my writing is for them. It is not.

My feminist articles are mainly for women or men who are interested in equality. My relationship articles are for men and women who want to be in a healthy relationship and could use the help.

None of my writing is meant for mansplainers. And still… every article gets at least one. Sometimes… the same one!

There are a bunch of guys who read every feminist and relationship article out there and have a bad thing to say about it. I read a lot on this theme on the platform and their negative comments are everywhere.

It’s like they have some sick pleasure out of reading things that bother them and then spewing out venom. Or tears. Whatever they’ve got.

Have I blocked all of them? God no… I don’t want to block everybody who has a different opinion than my own.

I just blocked the repeat offenders.

These guys made it a sport out of raiding every comment section with their vitriolic opinions. The same guys over and over again. Like parasites who use my work to scream their hatred.

I’m not having that. If everything I have to say is wrong, maybe it’s time they start writing their own article. Be the next Andrew Tate if you can. I dare you, there’s still enough room in Romanian prisons.

So I blocked 3 or 4 of them. See how it feels when you don’t have a voice.

Who are these guys and what were they about?

I won’t be mentioning any names, because I’m not into the shaming game.

It’s where they are at this stage in their life and it’s the best they can do. I just blocked them to not spread more misinformation, hate, and delusion in my comments.

Also to stop annoying me.

1. The guy who went through a bitter divorce and now brags about how he’s giving his current girlfriend 20–30 orgasms a day.

Yeah, right…

This one really cracked me up, I swear I’m going to miss him. He found an argument in everything. Everything! His wife left him for another man (or cheated on him with another man) and obviously, she needed to be punished in every feminist woman’s article.

We didn’t all cheat on you, and the world is not unfair towards men, dude, quite the contrary.

Also, him giving his current girlfriend 20–30 orgasms a day was quite laughable.

No, the human body doesn’t work that way. No, he wasn’t giving her all those orgasms, because it’s biologically impossible. She was either faking or has a disease, in which case those orgasms are self-produced by the body as a response to any sort of stimulus, even a sneeze.

My guess is that he doesn’t even have a girlfriend, but that’s just speculation.

Nobody had the heart to tell him we all know he’s delusional, but I also didn’t have the heart to subject myself to that level of idiocy any longer. So I blocked him.

2. The guy who had really basic arguments that needed a ton of unpacking.

This guy… he argued against every article with such a level of stupidity that I didn’t even know where to begin responding.

The comments were not just incredibly idiotic, but also very basic and steeped in prejudice not just against women, but especially against men, who he considered one-dimensional miscreants who are only capable of watching the game, having a beer, and a hard-on.

Usually in the same hand.

It just wasn’t worth the comment space. He’s out.

3. The guy who always wined that women don’t love him but refused to believe my insights on how women function.

I swear I tolerated the rest of them better than I did this guy.

He was always complaining: omg, look at these women who aren’t into soft people like him. Why am I saying that women like good guys when obviously women are into alphas and jerks?

Poor him, look how he’s all about pleasing women and he’s doing everything I said, but it’s just not working, what male pick-up artists say works better.

Why do women want muscly guys and he’s flabby? Can’t I see I’m contradicting myself? He would love the degree of attention women get from men, why don’t women appreciate it?

I couldn’t stand his whining anymore. I also have a problem with delusion: the guy wasn’t trying the tips I gave, he was all about bitching about his lonely life that he was doing nothing to improve.

All the while convincing himself that he’s a nice guy.

Being soft and spineless doesn’t make you a good guy. Sorry.

These guys weren’t blocked because of the mansplaining, which happens anyway and I learned to live with it.

Almost all my relationship articles have at least one comment from a man that says ‘but women don’t know what they want anyway, why should we listen to them’.

Mansplain it to me harder, Daddy. Tell me what women want. I’m dying to hear how you know so much more about women than I do, from your high and mighty throne of entitlement and delusion.

Mmmm… oops! I got so excited that I accidentally pushed that big mean block button.. silly little old me! Bye then!
