I was listening to Sam Harris’s podcast when Anna-Liisa woke up this morning. This is what she said to me: “You know how the French have that great expression ‘tête à claques’ (or ‘face à claques’), which roughly translates to ‘punchable face’, a face that’s so annoying that you just wanna punch it? Well, Sam Harris has a punchable voice.”

Machiavellian colleague who regularly sends out passive-aggressive emails, cc-ing everyone, whose sole purposes are to: take credit for other people’s work; cast aspersions on colleagues; and give their superiors the impression that they’re taking care of business.

The condition of being a straight guy trapped in a misogynistic body. Those afflicted with sexuality dysphoria are prisoners of their own sexuality: they simultaneously desire women and can’t stand them. They're happiest when they’re hanging out with “the guys” and really don’t like the company of women.
I feel bad for all those MRA guys suffering from sexuality dysphoria. Wouldn't they be happier if they were gay? Wouldn’t they be happier if they could get a little man-on-man action at the end of the night? I think so. As it stands, they simultaneously want women and hate women.
