I am laughing uncontrollably at the fact that, every third comment or so, “Freddie” TRIES TO COMMENT AGAIN.

*So* donated-to.

First-time commenter here, and new to the blog. I surfed over here via some other feminist blogs that were inspired by your takedown of Freddie and his [BONERS] to write posts about owning your own accomplishments without qualification or self-degradation (ala “I’m Sady fucking Doyle.”)

Well, I had to go see the original. You had me giggling from the start, but when I read the “I’m Sady fucking Doyle” paragraph, (and this is going to sound so corny that I might barf) it brought a fucking tear to my eye. I felt uplifted. I felt inspired to stop checking myself every time I try to take credit for my own accomplishments.

I don’t know a damn thing about you, Sady Doyle, (though I hope to improve upon that by reading through all your archives) but I know that you are fucking awesome.

Freddie should really go get that checked out. Priapism isn’t good for anyone.

also the term “sexualizing freddie” sounds like one of those bad ladyprons sold at “sex parties”.

“We present serious, and subversive, and controversial subject matter here. More or less continually. We also make jokes. This is because serious, subversive, controversial subject matter tends to bore people, or scare them. If people are bored or scared, then they’re not learning. When they read Tiger Beatdown, they are entertained. They end up learning through the serious, subversive, and controversial points presented over the course of that entertainment. Also, they don’t feel like someone just had to shove a pill down their throats. We sneak it into the applesauce instead. Who doesn’t like applesauce, really?”

Oh my god, I laughed so freaking at this passage and that whole ‘De Boners” thing.

At the risk of losing whatever credibility I have as a blogger, Tigerbeatdown is like my person in the most Grey’s Anatomy of ways.

Wow, that Freddie really likes to talk about his [BONERS.]
