Maybe it was the 'hot chicks' part of the url that did it.

It's like they collected all the guys from Parental Control and Exposed and Next and Room Raiders and ran them through a Gotti-izer and put them all on the same site. It's a public service, really.

This lays the "smart, funny, and intelligent" crock to rest and proves vividly that confidence is what many women want.

Now let's not get too excited here. These are merely pictures of douchebags posing with women. The women, for all we know, may be somewhat embarrassed at the pure, unadultered douchebaggery that is touching, groping, and snarling at/near them. These pictures do not indict us, as young Americans. Women do not prefer douchebags. To draw this conclusion from a few photographs is not dissimilar to saying that women prefer mentally handicapped men. Have you not seen the promotional material for Special Olympics? Why, it's nothing but pictures of attractive people embracing and smiling with the mentally and physically handicapped! To sum up, yes, douchebags are retarded, and no, most women are not attracted to them.

I live in Chicago, and any time I'm out at a hipstery bar with my hipstery friends, somebody inevitably utters the word "douchebag" or one of its variants. It is used to apply to men who seem to be upping the gentrification quotient of the bar and/or neighborhood. As in, "Check out all the douchebags in this place tonight." or "Is it just me or did this place get really douchey all of a sudden?"

Why do all of us supposedly liberal first-wave gentrifiers love using this not-so-subtly misogynistic term to describe second-wave gentrifiers?

If you're a straight guy and you look at this and are envious, consider this: yeah those guys are probably sleeping with those girls, but presumably they're also having conversations with those girls. Is it worth it?

I hope for these people's sake that they're no older than 20, and at 20 I would have looked past these girls' abysmal repulsiveness for one night. I say "would have" because I was not the right kind of douchebag for this type of girl. Now I wouldn't look twice. And think of this: if you're this douchebag, not only do you have the bad fortune of being this douchebag, but you have the doubly bad fortune of only being ever able to find the kind of girls who would be into this kind of douchebag, and what kind of reckless maniac would that girl be?

On preview: I don't normally use the word douchebag but the original poster put it into currency in this thread.

It's just got something about the combination and order of the syllables that makes it both satisfying to say and suitably negative. The actual definition is irrelevant. The term has endured because you feel a little better when you use it in regards to someone that makes you uncomfortable.

"Cocksucker" is a similar word, but it has more explicit cruel baggage attached to it. So you can't really use it, except to describe bad drivers when you're alone in the car. But when "cocksucker" comes into my head as an adjective, it's unrelated to sexuality of the act of fellatio. It's just a word that feels powerfully, strongly negative based on the combination of sounds. It's a shame that it has its roots in an ugly gay slur.

"Cocksucker" has crept into my everyday speech much more often after watching a season of Deadwood.

But the word I reserve for special occasions, occasions for which calling a person with this word is no in no way an exaggeration, is "butthole". Not "asshole", which is my everyday road-rage word, and imply generic meanness. But buttholes have a special kind of unwillingness to play nice with the other kiddies.

Some of these guys are merely douchebags, and most of them look like assholes. A couple few look like real buttholes.
posted by notsnot at 8:13 AM on August 23, 2007


Anyway, isn't douchebag probably a popular insult for people who grew up with that famous ad with two women in the canoe and a not-so-fresh feeling? I saw that when I was about 10 and I thought, "what the fuck are they talking about?" I asked someone else, and he explained it to me and I thought, "what the fuck is he talking about?" Last week I was watching Sopranos, where they say douchebag a lot, and my Spanish girlfriend asked me what the word douchebag means, and in the middle of my explanation she said, "what the fuck are you talking about?" So the reaction to the concept of douchebag seems universal: puzzlement, the sort of shudder you get around lunatics, and, if you're a 10-year-old boy, disgust. So it's quite natural to turn the word into an insult. I don't think it's misogynistic at all.

I like that one too. "asshole" seems sot of temporary "you're an asshole" mostly means "stop doing that." "butthole" seems more permanent, like a description of the person rather than their actions.

How the hell is douchebag a misogynistic term? It's the bag on a douche. It's disgusting. Nobody wants to be that thing. It's a great term, and it perfectly sums up the dudes in these photos. DB's, d-bags, douche captains. From Dr. Bill Long (.com):
"4. Douche-bag (1963). I wonder if you guessed that douche-bag was introduced earlier than "dirt-bag." Even the OED has something about douche-bag. The word douche, with this spelling, goes back to the 18th century, but "douche-bag" doesn't occur until the 20th and, at first, in a medical context. For example, in a gynecological handbook for nurses, from 1908, we have the advice to "hang the douche-bag eighteen inches above the level of the patient's hips." By 1967, according to the OED, the term came into its more prominent contemporary usage: "Douche bag, an unattractive co-ed. By extension, any individual whom the speaker desires to deprecate." By the time I made it to the university in 1970, the language of "douche bag" was in the air, but it was almost universally applied to males. Once again, the males take over what properly belongs to women. Isn't that the complaint of the feminists? Well, at least we humanists finally took over a scientific term and used it for our own noble purposes."

I would submit that Dr. Bill Long might himself be a douchebag. But I digress. The term has been in circulation for quite some time, and I think that it avoids all the particularly nasty baggage that attends alternates such as "cock-sucker," "cock-snorkler" and "cock-waffle." In fact, I'm glad to see cock moving into retirement whereas douche, a fantastic, versatile word, is moving into the prominence it has so long deserved.

Ah, yes. Chode. A schlong with greater girth than length, no? Great word. And then of course there is the "Geraldine" - a penis that is long and spindly, not unlike a pipe cleaner. I also had a friend once who attempted to introduce the name "Howard" as a new and curious moniker for the vagina - somehow, I don't think it has caught on.
posted by billysumday at 8:47 AM on August 23, 2007


Ah. So that's what a douchebag looks like? I always thought a douchebag was a receptacle containing liquids which a lady might utilize for keeping her vagina clean. These guys look like legitimate reasons why a woman might want to use a douche afterwards. I'm also hearing a bit of sour grapes in this thread. The girls are probably not any better than the guys they're with. That it looks like they'd all 'put out' and are therefore loose and sleazy.

I'm happy these couples have found one another, and bring whatever small amount of happiness and pleasure they can into each other's lives. I know I'm supposed to find humor in this link and this thread, but I guess I don't need to put down others to make myself feel better about myself. I would of course give myself a wide berth from such couples in polite company, but more power to them. May they go forth and share body fluids and bring their little douchebags into the world, therefore perpetuating the species and insuring the destiny of humanity.

...

Yeah, I don't believe a word of that bullshit either. Did someone earlier mention there was whiskey in this thread?

In San Diego, douchebags were a familiar part of my growing up. Back then, the formula to create a douchebag was often this: first you take one young, inexperienced, hormonal guy from a remote American small town, preferably one who has never been more than 100 miles from where he was born. Snatch him from his mother, toss him into the Navy/Marines and train him to be a military machine fueled by testosterone. Be sure he spends loooong periods of time in an explicitly male bonding environment with other inexperienced, hormonal guys. Let the natural testosterone in the air feed and multiply. Keep him inside of the petri dish for a long time and then let everybody loose into the local community without supervision for three days, seeing the world for the first time while traveling in a testosterone-fueled pack.

Now... watch people with boobs enter the picture. Voila! A douchebag is born.

Anyway Socrates' argument that it's better to suffer pain than cause pain applies to these people: you will be stuck with your own company for the rest of your life, so it's better to be a gentleman and a scholar than a douchebag, since you wouldn't want to be stuck with a douchebag for the rest of your life.

Sites like these challenge the notion of forgiveness.

See, you look at these people, and there's the envy- easy, plentiful sex with physically fit people, no matter how dumb or venal- and there's no honest way to avoid that. It may be cheap one night stands, but they're still one-night stands. And yes, married to that is the understanding, the truthful disdain, knowing that in 10-5 years these douchenozzles will have only their rapidly fading looks, staunch conservatism (i.e., the frat boy = Republican = xenophobic prick connection seen at Late Night Shots), and a realization at the utter hollowness of their lives to keep them company.

So... doesn't it seem only fair that we have to root against their ever having a spiritual awakening? That if they were to party hardy now, then grow older, grayer, and obtain some growth and peace and spiritual health... that it's not fair? That in effect, they got the best of both worlds: the prodigal Guido, fucking everything that moves, then coming home when they no longer have an invite to the party, and still being welcomed with open arms?

I want them to suffer, personally- I want them to have the lousiest lives possible, payback for the sheer psychopathic selfishness that characterizes their every moment. The fashion obsession, the juvenile cutdowns, the pettiness and bullying attitudes, the mean-spirited "Late night shots" type websites. I don't think it's fair that I have to be forgiving or accepting, that I have to be above it all and more thoughtful, when clearly they aren't. Their excuse is stupidity and shallowness, but somehow simply being a little bit smarter enough to ponder these things, to have an ethical conscience, requires that I be kind? Fuck it! Why can't I be as selfish in my older years as they are now, and look down on them. I want to be this guy; to have the sadistic pleasure of meeting these people when they aren't in the full the flower of their youth, and are pathetic, poor, and hurting SO bad inside, hurting everywhere at realizing how off the tracks their lives are, wishing they'd made different choices. I want to kick them when they're down, because dammit I'm not Jesus McBuddha, and I won't be "better than that". We live in a brutal jungle, there is no greater moral compass.

I think that the multiple people who have drawn a correlation between this site and Late Night Shots need to go back and take another look at that post. The Late Night Shots people are united in their hatred of what they term "turbos". If I am remembering the description of what they call a turbo correctly, then it is these douchebags exactly. Therefore, it is not Metafilter v. Late Night Shots/douchebags. It is Metafilter/Late Night Shots v. douchebags/turbos. Or, what I think may be more accurate, upper middle class privileged white elitists v. the lower class intruding on our social sphere.

"Hookdag?"

Here is the quote I was thinking of:

Deviations from the uniform, like a striped pullover from Old Navy paired with cargo shorts, invite severe judgment. According to several vocabulary guides on LNS, such attire denotes the status of “turbo,” a term suggestive of a Long Island mall boy with gobs of gel in his hair and maybe a puka shell necklace.

Good point krinklyfig. I suppose that all of the lolchristians posts here are essentially us laughing at poor people. I realize that being poor doesn't make you morally superior. It just seems at odds with people's stated beliefs that we as a community would be reading a blog written by a right-winger (I don't know who runs the site, I am just assuming from the comments above) as he posted pictures of people who appear to be lower class, or at least lower middle class, and makes fun of them for their hair or clothes or facial expressions.

Yeah, it's kind of misleading because guys, for the most part, will find any woman who's vaguely attractive with visible cleavage "hot."

Whereas we have some sort of standard for the appearance of other men, in that they should look dignified and not like over-tanned, over-manipulated hair, steroid-addicted, idiots. So the women are pretty much as bad, but guys just aren't nuanced enough to tell the difference between bad female fashion and good female fashion as it relates to "hotness."

It all makes me wonder: was I supposed to try this hard for girls? Be this desperate? I guess, really, what I mean is I am clearly, simply better than these poor buggers. I (a white guy) have never made funny gestures with my hand while sneering (aside from catching my ring-finger in a door last week). I don't wear a base-ball or trucker hat (the beret is a better shape for my face). These guys obviously lack my dry charm and disdain for full-chest tattoos of the covers of any of a number of Journey albums.

I'm still trying to find my jaw. I think it broke into pieces and got lost in the cruft around my computer.

They're just people, doing the same peacocky things that most people do, with a different vocabulary.

Well put - and touché.

However, I'm still going to judge potential partners or dates by their books. Like, whether or not they own any. And if they look like they're well-read and loved. I may even note if they keep their Anaïs Nin next to their A. N. Roquelaure or near Franny and Zooey. If there's a balance between fiction and non-fiction and reference.

But it's obviously not just about books. Books are just gateways to ideas and exchanges. It's one ready way to explore and find out about someone who is, hopefully, complex.

I have a hard time swallowing "all these things are equal" when compared to - err, well - that video.

I think there's a very real difference between valuing a fellow human for things like these subtle non-material traits and the not so subtle things - like material wealth or surface beauty.

These material-motivated relations and, err, mating dances aren't relations that will end well, for the most part. They don't come from places of respect for someone else.

He isn't going to reminisce over a beer with his buddies about how nice she was to hang out with or wax poetic about conversations they had.

I don't know if that's a false sense of superiority or not, or whether it is or it isn't superiority itself. I don't know if I really even care.

No lekvar, none of that makes you a douchebag. I know lots of guys who style themselves that way who are not douchebags at all. But there is a certain type of guy (whose style unfortunately overlaps with yours a bit) who gives off a palpable stench of obnoxious douchebaggery the moment he enters a room. I don't know what it is. I don't know why it happens. But most of the women (and men) I know can spot it a mile away.

Well, that's a little silly... it's not like I went around asking men how old they were and then dating them if the number sounded right. It's the WHOLE PACKAGE of a person that attracts me, it was never just how old they were. If anything, there were times where I really liked someone & I didn't want them to be older... I WANTED to be with someone my own age, but I just wasn't meeting that person. So I dated the people that I was drawn to, that I bonded with, that made me laugh, that I found to be interesting & respectful & kind to me. I really wanted conversations that were about deeper topics than how much he wanted to grab my boobs.

I think the key is... I didn't date older douchebags either. Douchebags of any age have never, ever, ever had any kind of an edge with me. And as previously mentioned, living in San Diego and then Los Angeles throughout my twenties I met a Hell of a lot of them. I think every skeezy "Producer" in Los Angeles tried to hit on me when I arrived. Getting a little nauseous just thinking about 'em.

I've always found it most effective to attract pussies with tuna. And when they are well trained, you just need to use the can opener and they come running.

It's the WHOLE PACKAGE of a person that attracts me

So you were just in it for their junk? I'm sorry...I couldn't stop it....

Whoa, watch where you're pointing the douche, lynnster. Those are the words of a younger self. None of us were mature and level-headed our entire lives.

Now that you mention it, I do have a 1/4 douche on my father's side. You might be onto something.
