When I started this blog, I began a series of self portraits with this mirror and it had graffiti on it. Bob Arihood actually taught me how to blog -- correction -- he taught me half of what it takes to blog and he expected I would have to come back to his apt. to learn the other half. Call it a "control" issue but I did not want to return for some reason....hmmm. When they have the annual "Misogynist Club" meeting at Tompkin Square Park they can discuss that. No discussion there, misogynists just blame and trash women. I believe the "attitude" towards me is so pervasive and accepted it permeates our country in the worst ways from the work place to violence towards women which I believes starts with trash talking them, putting them down.The Internet Cafe in the old Carl Fischer Building had some very kind young people that worked there and one of them told me the rest about how to blog so I can bring this blog to you. The Internet place went out of business along with so many business and so many people displaced under Bloomberg's tsunami of community crushing development.
I was walking along Avenue A last night and I felt someone staring at me from across the street and guess who it was?Do I shout out for the police? No don't bother. There are none around and if they are around, they do not wear uniforms although they do tend to stand out and most are standing hanging out with Bob. Bob Airhood and Lincoln Anderson are co-presidents of the Misogynist Club and I have discussed with many people Bob's photo of Marlene topless in the park which is perfectly legal and Lincoln's comments I should get a life and his false accusation on behalf of Bob Arihood that Marlene at my urging attempted to extort money from Bob Airhood. I actually told Marlene if you are not comfortable with a topless photo to tell Bob Arihood to take the photo down. Am I surprised she asked Bob for money? No, she asks me and many other people just like I get requests from the Metropolitan Museum, Lincoln Center, PAL, MOMA and again thanks to the Bob Airhood and Lincoln air head Anderson for clarifying all these organizations are attempting to extort money from me. Marlene is dirt poor and Arihood has taken so many photos of her, you would think he would offer her food, money and hand her some copies of the photos he has taken of her not that she has a place to keep them being mostly homeless but still.
Bottom line: Everyone thinks it was exploitative and wrong to take a photo of Marlene topless when she was drunk and post it on the internet.
Question: Is staring at someone harassment. Someone you want no contact with. I will ask the undercover officers standing next to him in the park next time he does it! Just joking of course.
Misogynist: A man who hates women.
I would add blames them as well. The Misogynist Clubs has weekly meetings at Tompkins Square Park and there are no annual fees.
Please note: The Misogynist Club is a fictitious club I made up after Lincoln Anderson sent me a high volume of emails I consider harassing especially when I alerted him to the fact I did not any contact with him and I would consider any emails harassment. I even let him know right away I was posting his emails but it did not stop him. He wrote me horrible untrue statements speaking both for himself and Bob Arihood so I created this club to lampoon misogynists that like to stand and gather to make false accusations and blame the women they are actually victimizing. Anderson actually tried to defend his dehumanizing Marlene by calling her "Hotdog" because he wrote in one of a few emails I did not publish that he calls Jim Mosaic Man and Biker Bill their street names but folks their names add something marvelous to their name, a mystique while Marlene's street name does not.
Note: I was alerted by a community member regarding Jim almost being beaten up by a gang of teenagers in Tompkins Square Park who witnessed the attack that was halted by Jesse Jane, not the porn star but hero dog. Suggestion to the police...catch the teens and when you are in the park don't stand by Bob Arihood because I may need to ask for your assistance.
Teenagers need to be in programs that engage their time and their minds. Any programs that can be offered during the summer, after school, plus any internships, preferably even some paid would be excellent. Any mentorship programs, big brother, etc. any local organizations that can expand or amp up their programs because we have so many young people and their focus needs to be constructive not destructive. We don't want young people ending up in jail but they can't be allowed to run around the East Village beating up homeless people or any people for that matter.
Note: To women that dare to speak out be ready to be harassed, disparaged and the men and even women that join in will try to convince you -- you are the problem but don't stop speaking up. Do contact the police and any authorities, speak to lawyers and keep community members informed.
Thank you.
