Here's something for Erica's Anxious Masculinity Watch:

The other night Parker and I were talking, and somehow or another we were talking about some guys he lived with in the dorms when he was 18. They always ate in the cafeteria together, and the women in their dorms sat at their own table at the same time. Parker noticed that one of the guys at his table was always glancing over at the women's table, but he didn't really think anything of it. One day, the guy marched over to the women's table and pointed at each of them and started shouting, "You. You. You. You. Every single day you eat ice cream. Word of advice. LAY OFF THE ICE CREAM." To which they all stared at him in shock and said nothing.

Flashback to being 18 myself. Nathan used to spend lengthy amounts of time discussing how he and the guys HE sat with would watch (and obsess) over girls going up to the softserve machine, talking amongst themselves about it. "Don't do it! No!", etc.

I'd also like to note, that in both cases, upon questioning, neither one said that the young women were obese, not that that would make it appropriate in any way, just further proof that these men are complete contolling bastards.

It's pretty damn ridiculous that men such as Nathan and whoever this other guy was actually spend their time thinking they have a right to control what women fucking EAT. I'd say that's pretty damn crazy. I know how much fucking icecream Nathan used to consume, and it was A LOT. And I'm sure the same goes for the other men that think they can tell women NOT to eat it. Pretty pathetic.
