How to make a supergamma

Assuming that one doesn't simply have a budding young lambda on one's hands. If you don't look at these pictures of smiling, happy young drag queens and see the evil lurking underneath, there is something very, very wrong with you.

The camp, “You Are You” (the name has been changed to protect the privacy of the children and is also the name of Morris’ series), is for “Parents who don’t have a gender-confirming 3-year-old who wants to wear high heels and prefers to go down the pink aisle in K-Mart and not that nasty dark boys’ aisle,” Morris said with a laugh.

It is also a place for both parents and children to feel protected in an environment that encourages free expression.

“[The kids] don’t have to look over their shoulders, and they can let down their guard. Those are four days when none of that matters, and they are surrounded by family members who support them,” Morris said....

Although it is unknown if the kids at the camp will eventually identify as gay or transgender—or even if the way gender and sexuality are defined throughout society will evolve—the camp allows the kids to look at themselves in a completely different way.

“They get enough questioning in their daily lives, so it’s a great place for them to express themselves as they feel. … I feel we hear so many of the sad stories and how LGBT kids are disproportionately affected by bullying, depression, and suicide, and it hangs a heavy cloud over them and kind of dooms them from the beginning. I’m saying this is a new story. This is not a tragedy.”

It's not often that one looks at a youth camp showing pictures of happy children and finds oneself thinking, "you know, those jihadists really do have a point".  This camp for "gender non-conforming" is evidence that decadent Western society deserves to be killed with fire.

Here is my prediction: by encouraging these mentally abnormal young boys to revel in their illness rather than to conquer it, the consequences are going to be exactly the opposite expected.  I hope they do follow the progress of the camp attendees over time, as I predict that as adults, the camp attendees will not only show higher rates of depression, drug abuse, and suicide than the average of the general population, but that they will show higher rates of depression, drug abuse, and suicide than the LGBT average.

I will also bet that at least one of these campers will murder his parents in his teenage years.  Some of these kids are so young that their behavior appears to reflect their mother's desires for a daughter rather than any self-directed inclinations.

Female sport as parasite

The call for a women's Tour de France is one demonstration of how women in general tend to be parasitical with regards to male creativity:

 'What came first, the chicken or the egg?' Bear with me, for it seems this well-trodden phrase can apply to women's cycling too. For years critics have argued that a female Tour de France would have no audience and no sponsorship. Without one (the chicken), you certainly won't get the other (the egg). And vice versa.

But just look at what's happened in the last few weeks, and the first 'reason' critics give for not staging a women's race – a supposed lack of audience – is almost certainly not true.

A petition calling for a women's Tour de France launched earlier this month, now has 70,000 signatures and counting. Surely, if campaigners can prove there is an audience, the egg – sponsorship – will inevitably follow?

That's enough chicken and egg comparisons for now. My point is simple. The petition in question was launched by several key women in cycling – including Britain's former world champion and 2008 Olympic time trial silver medallist Emma Pooley and Olympic road race champion Marianne Vos – and has gained huge momentum in a short space of time.

With Chris Froome in the news for pedalling his way to glory in the Tour de France over the past few weeks, now seems the time to act for a women's race. 

Now, what is there stopping any of these 70,000 petitioners from holding a women's Tour de France at any time they like?  They can do exactly what Henri Desgrange did in 1903, obtain a newspaper sponsorship, attract 60 entrants, and hold a race.  There is absolutely nothing preventing anyone from doing that.

In fact, there are already many women's races which have more entrants than the original Tour de France did.  They tend to be shorter, but then, any of those race directors can simply extend the race if they want.

Instead, what the women want to do is force the Tour de France to hold a women's race, pay it equal prize money to the men, and pretend that it is of the same interest to bicycling enthusiasts and worthy of the same respect.  The Tour is doing the right thing by simply ignoring the parasites, but an even more effective response would be to call their bluff and announce that the Tour de France is neither a men's event nor a women's event, but a race that is equally open to all men and women who qualify.

If they want to be particularly cruel, they can allow one token women's team and demonstrate just how far from equal they are.  The NBA could have saved a lot of money if, instead wasting millions on the WNBA, they turned one franchise into an all-star all-women's team to serve as the Washington Generals of the league.  That would have been hilarious and probably sold more tickets in a season than the entire WNBA ever did. 

The most defensible way to deal with equalitarians is to force them to deal with true equality, thereby rubbing the fact of nature's inequality in their faces.  This won't stop them from babbling about disparate impact, nonexistent privilege and the esoteric fairy tales concocted in women's studies programs, but that's just a fighting withdrawal.  The best way, of course, is to simply tell the parasites to go to Hell and start their own organization.

The fact is that there was a female Tour de France from 1984 to 2009.  And it failed, like most leagues that involve women playing men's sports do.

Black knights

As is becoming abundantly clear in the wake of the PyCon debacle, women are not actually the primary problem with regards to the female tendency to upset every applecart in which they come into contact.  They can only wreak the havoc they do because their white knights condone, support, and defend their destructive behavior.

To counteract the deleterious influence of these white knights, black knights are needed.  By which I mean men who are capable of mastering the bureaucratic force to which women readily resort in the dark art of corporate ninjitsu.

What does that mean?  It means acting exactly like a woman would every single time a female coworker does something that would result in a complaint to the employment authority if a male coworker did it.  The purpose is not to get the female coworker fired, but rather, work towards shutting down the abusive system by utilizing it to its full extent.  When faced with absurdity, the correct response is to push the pedal to the metal and aucto ad absurdum.

Let me give you an example.  I can't provide any details, due to the organization's rules, but I can paint a general picture.  There was a discussion of a proposed system that was, due to its nature, intrinsically unfair.  Simply by expressing an intention to utilize the system to its fullest, which intention thereby illustrated its fundamental absurdity, was enough to convince at least some of the people involved that the whole concept was best abandoned.

Many, if not most, women make shameless use of their sexual power at work.  It is to their advantage and they are able to do so because men enjoy it and permit them to freely utilize it. This is short-sighted on the part of the men who are entirely vulnerable to the speech and thought police in HR.  So, the system has to be taken down, and it can easily be taken down in any organization by keeping two core HR principles in mind.

1.  women are not to be held responsible for their actions
2.  women are equal to men

Women are not be able to restrain themselves any better than men can; they will inevitably make inappropriate comments and display themselves in inappropriate ways.  So, each time a female coworker crosses any of the clear HR-defined lines, in any way, the black knight will immediately go to his superior as well as HR and express how her behavior is making him uncomfortable and so forth.  You know the drill.

The average woman affected in this manner is going to be upset, humiliated, full of wrath and likely, as women are wont, to double down on her behavior.  Two or three complaints should be enough to provoke a vulgar, public outburst that even the most feminist HR department determined to see, hear, and speak no female evil will be unable to sweep under the rug.  Once she is gone or transferred, smile, be charming, and patiently await the next victim to step over the line.

Be sure to document every complaint and meeting.  That way, if the women in HR try to turn things around on the black knight, he will have a case for going directly after HR lest the corporation find itself facing an obvious wrongful termination situation in which the victim has been blamed.  Remember, the black knight doesn't make the rules, he merely masters them and apply them to his maximal benefit in every situation.

The various white knights will attempt to belittle and minimize every female violation of company policy, of course, that is what white knights do.  But it is the duty, to say nothing of the pleasure, of every black knight to subvert and defeat their best efforts.

Spare them a thought today

A vintage Valentine from 1905 for all those single ladies who are making a point of exuberantly loving their lives on Facebook today:

 

As for the single men, today is your day!  Can't you smell the desperation all around you in the air?  The first thing you should do today is make a reservation at a great restaurant that you particularly like.  And when the first girl who interests you laments that she doesn't have a date or a boyfriend, tell her that you'll take her out tonight.  If she doesn't agree, (and she usually will), then repeat with the next one to come along.  Even if you're normally a helpless gamma, you'll look like a smooth player and it's guaranteed that when the maître d' escorts you to your table, she'll give you a funny look and ask if this is something you do every year.

Do NOT give her a straight answer.  Just smile and tell her that she really should try a particular dish.  Don't try to impress her, just relax and enjoy yourself, let the evening come to you.  Order a decent bottle of red wine.  If nothing comes of it, that's fine.  It's just a good dinner with a drinkable wine and a beautiful woman, what is not to like about it?

And when people compliment you on being a cute couple, don't straighten them out.  Tell absurd lies.  Tell them it's your fourth anniversary.  Tell them you just got engaged.  Tell them she only has six months to live but tonight you're celebrating life.  She'll be simultaneously horrified and trying not to burst out laughing.

Keep it light, keep it fun, and the first date won't be the last one.

Evil crouches on the pedestal

For those who insist that women are pure, innocent, and pedestal-worthy, I invite them to consider the incontrovertible evidence of female evil: Spacebunny knowingly and purposefully inflicted this velutinous Lovecraftian horror upon me this morning.



It may not initially seem so bad, but just wait until you belatedly realize that you've been whistling it to yourself and recoil in spine-chilling self-loathing. Granted, it's pretty funny to see her walk around cheerfully singing it and shaking her ass, but THIS ONLY GOES TO SHOW MIND-BOGGLINGLY EVIL IT IS!
