A recently created Tumblr page called "Nice Guys of OkCupid" drew my attention to a particular flavor of passive aggressive misogyny that tries to pass itself off as something wholesome.
These pages are filled with the musings of self-proclaimed "Nice Guys" who all seem to have a poor command of the English language and a huge sense of entitlement.
What are the habits of a Nice Guy, you ask?
Here are some highlights:
He tells anyone who will listen how nice he is.
He whines about holding the hand of Girl X when she is weeping over some other guy who dumped her or hasn't noticed her existence.
He wonders why, even though he's never said anything directly about it, Girl X just can't read his mind and see that he's the one it she should be with.
He pretends to listen and be concerned when Girl X is talking, all the while looking for a chance to initiate physical contact.
He thinks that being "nice" entitles him to certain things-like having sex with Girl X at some point.
If Girl X rejects him outright, she turns into a slut, whore or bitch. Also she is stupid.
He lumps millions of "girls" into the same category saying, "they only want to date assholes." He concludes that he should just "become an asshole", not realizing that he already is one.
He has a never-ending supply of self-pity and a serious victim complex.
The parts of this Tumblr page that are particularly disturbing are the ones where the "Nice Guys" respond to the questions OkCupid has given them.
One actually wrote that "A 'No' is just a 'Yes' that needs a little convincing."
Another one answered in the affirmative to the question, "Do you feel there are any circumstances in which a person is obligated to have sex with you?"
Several others said they felt that the man should be the head of the household.
Reasons for the singleness of the "Nice Guy" have never been more clear.

It was also noteworthy that many seem to think we have an obligation to shave our legs. Huh. I'm sure those also think we have an obligation to brazilian wax so that they can act out their fantasy of fucking an 11 year old.
