Chat Roulette and What it Says About Humanity

I recently discovered Chat Roulette, a chat site that launched in early November of 2009. It is a webcam chat site where you connect with a stranger. This is the point where the website departs from a standard chat site and enters the arena of unsolicited hardcore pornography. Merely click "new game" in the upper left hand corner and you are whisked away to ocular rape. Your first connection might be a cute girl, and your 75th connection might also be a cute girl. Somewhere in between your eyes will be greeted by no less than 55 half naked (or naked) dudes.

The numbers concerning the website are even more disturbing. For every girl on chatroulette.com, there are upwards of 70 dudes, many nasty naked ones, too.

Aside from the lesson that technology is nearly always used exclusively for evil, pernicious activities, Chat Roulette has taught me one more thing: most girls are lazy. I've long suspected that girls are lazy. In my early day college classes a large majority of girls would show up wearing pajamas and slippers. That kind of behavior isn't tolerated from most male students, yet girls can get away with it. How this applies to Chat Roulette will soon be explained.

Chat Roulette ties this laziness up with a nice little bow. When you finally wade through the ocean of perverts that populate Chat Roulette and get to a girl, you'll find that she is most likely incredibly boring! Of the few girls I talked to on Chat Roulette, most were mind numbingly boring. Some were doing homework and rarely looked up, one even read a magazine. She literally typed, "hello," then turned her head and picked up a magazine. WTF! C'mon!

Now I'm an egalitarian, meaning that I believe people should be treated equally. Whether they're gay, black, white, muslims, christians, or atheists, I think people should enjoy the same rights and privileges. I also believe that all people should be called out on the same shit. If a dude can't show up to classes in pajamas and fall asleep in the back of the room, than neither should a girl. Only when all people are accountable for their own actions and placed on the same scale can we truly coexist.
