Are you a heartless bitch?

I figure that it is totally unfair of me to attempt to provide information to curious readers without allowing the “other side” of the story to be told.  I came across a site the other day devoted to heartless bitches (at least they are honest).  They seem to have some issues with men but after reading their statement I felt I was somewhat off base; maybe they weren’t so heartless after all:

“Despite the statements of some of our more Bitter Heartless Bitches, Heartless Bitches International is NOT about Man-Hating. We don’t discriminate against stupidity, arrogance, irresponsibility, bloated egos, or immaturity on the basis of gender.”

The main page of the site continues with The Heartless Manifesto:

*Do really sappy, insipid, “always and forever” love poems make you want to puke? (and that goes for Bon Jovi lyrics too!)
*Do you find typical “Women’s Magazines” to be either stomach turning or pathetically laughable?
*Are you sick of people who have confused objectifying women as sex symbols with female “empowerment”?
*Are you tired of the walking wounded moping around expecting that the world owes them something because they are victims?
*Do you find the likes of Michael Bolton and Kenny G. revolting?
*Does the sight of an incredibly handsome man turn you off, because too many of them have room-temperature IQ’s, and obnoxious or non-existent personalities?
*Are you sick of lazy women who use emotional and sexual manipulation to get what they want instead of using their own brains and muscles?
*Are you fed up with women who feel they HAVE to be in a “Relationship” in order to be whole, and will sacrifice their self-esteem and personal growth in order to avoid being on their own?
*Are you tired of men and women who are emotional children, and won’t accept responsibility for their actions or behavior?
*Do you want to SMACK women who play “helpless” just to gain male attention and stroke male egos?
*Have you run out of sympathy for your Female friends who continually whine about how awful MEN ARE, but then they keep dating the same kind of ASSHOLES, over and OVER, AND OVER AGAIN!?
*Are you fed up with your Male friends who are looking to date a woman with the appearance of a supermodel, and yet they continually whine about how “women don’t like nice guys – they only want good-looking assholes”?
*Do the words “If you REALLY loved me….” turn your heart to ice?
*Do you retch in response to “The Rules”?
*Have you HAD IT with people telling you that you are TOO LOUD, TOO ASSERTIVE, or TOO OPINIONATED?
*Do you wish you had a button that said: “Thank you for sharing, now SHUT UP and quit Whining!” ?
*Are you utterly uninterested in pathetic individuals who seek attention by whining in their online “journals”?
*Are you sick of guys who hit on you and you politely decline, and they keep pestering you and pestering you, and pestering you like some obnoxious, festering, pus-filled sore, until you finally have to WHAP them over the head with a VERY LARGE CLUE-BY-FOUR ™….?
*Do you feel like you might as well “get hung for a sheep as a lamb”, because no matter how POLITELY you try to turn down some guy’s advances, you invariably get called a “Bitch”?

If you answered YES to all of the above, then Heartless Bitches International wants YOU. Heartless Bitches is now recruiting! Join up and be proud to use phrases like:

“Keep it in your pants, asshole”
“Oh why don’t you just masturbate and get over it!?”
“No, you can’t watch.”
“Wah, fuckin’, Wah.”

All card-carrying members will be sent a card to carry (if you send in the SASE), so you can proudly display your HBI membership card when some clueless jerk tries to give you grief.

Far be it for me to judge, check out their site for yourself here: http://www.heartless-bitches.com/

Men are:

Men Are From Arse

Men are insensitive. Men are so insensitive, they are insensitive to the fact that most people – especially women – in relationships with men are actually extremely glad of this. It makes them much easier to manipulate. However, more and more men are attempting to overcome this by adopting an attitude of fake sensitivity that can be seen through from a distance of five hundred meters. They are, of course, completely oblivious to the fact that a) no-one buys it, and b) no-one wants it anyway.

Men are simple. Bluntly, they are intellectually timid, with good reason, since they are rarely particularly bright, no matter how clever they might think they are (and they usually do). Men get together in groups to tell each other how clever they think they are, by setting up specially limited systems (such as cars, computers, football games etc) the entire intellectual core of which can usually be assimilated in an afternoon. They then spend inordinate amounts of time operating solely within these painfully tiny intellectual spaces, believing themselves to be doing something worthwhile. There is never any point in trying to argue with them about this.

Men are sentimental. And for all the wrong things, in all the wrong ways, in all the wrong places. Men will cry, quite genuinely, over sports events that have had a different result from the one they would have preferred. Men will hang on to jumpers and other items of clothing that are so old and threadbare as to be completely useless as actual clothing if they are not actually virtually walking around the room by themselves due to not having been washed properly for over a year. Yet there is a common thread to all these male sentimentalities – they all in some way related to the man himself, usually to something in his past for which he imagines himself to feel affection. Male sentimentality is usually nothing more than a screen for self-obsession, and, as with their stupidity, there is rarely any point in telling them this, unless you wish to upset them deliberately, which may be no bad thing.

Men are smelly. This is partly due to the natural processes of biology, which dictate that a man shall produce an unpleasant odour from his whole body no less than twenty-four hours after the last time he washed it, and sooner than that if he has been doing any kind of physical work or exercise. Despite this, it is quite clear that most men have little or no idea of the concept of ‘laundry’ or of ‘hygeine’, and usually require extensive coaching in both subjects. A tip for the sanity-conscious – let someone else be the mug who actually does that coaching. You have better things to do with your life. And you don’t need to live with their socks.

Men are, in short, seriously annoying. They are by turns stupid, insensitive, sickly-sentimental, and in the unlikely event that they themselves do not currently smell, they have probably left something somewhere in your house which does. Or they will do soon. Don’t let them.
