Ok. From my understanding Tyler Durden, uses fighting to teach men how to be men. Because of today's society men have been robbed of their roles as men. So he uses fighting to help them regain just a little bit of what they have lost. Still with me?
Now, what would tyler do if someone started talking junk about him? Would he set it off on them? Would he ignore it and let it go? WWTD?

I think I agree with you. Tell me more.

Okay. Okay, yeah, yeah...you're on to something here. I think.

You're say--I--no. No, you lost me. Hold on.

Oooooh. So as men we've forgotten who we...no, no I'm still lost. What's the thesis here?

Set his junk off on them? Probably. The book was pretty homoerotic. I'm sure in the refractory glow he'd eventually ignore his junk and let it go though. You're right. I get it now. Tyler would do something gay. We're on the same page.

I DID read the subject line as "Tyler Durden and Fisting," so that theory totally makes sense.

If this is your first night at Bake Club, you have to bake.

Can one of you guys actually answer the question? Because no where in the book or movie does Tyler talk about fighting out in the street, except when he gives out the homework assignments. WWTD?

What I want to know is WWTD if he had rented a 4 door luxury sedan and when he arrived to the car rental place they gave him a 2 door economy hatchback?

I don't know what he would do. I'm just trying to figure out if he is really an aggressive person or if he just uses aggression to help men.

In either case, I think he'd develop a weaker second personality to whine about it until he got his way.

I see what you mean blah blah blah..or whatever your name is.

Tyler seems too enlightened to be involved in aggressive reactions. However, I do think he would react violently to things, just a cool sort of violence.
Laughing while he's fighting.

If someone started talking smack to Tyler Durden I think he would either talk them into meeting him at a Fight Club so they can beat the crap out of each other or Glasses Use his wit and sarcastic tongue to bring it to their attention that his face is messed up from fighting and if they really wanted to brawl, Tyler could step up to the plate and bring it on.

Tyler uses fighting to snuggle with guys on a regular basis without making it seem gay.

QFT.

If the fighting in the novel Fight Club is, as shown previously, a metaphor for myriad homosexual acts, then unknowingly fighting one's self - an imaginary self - is masturbatory. Masturbation is not usually seen as homosexual even though it is, by necessity, always "same-sex", thus the Narrator/Tyler pairing is a sublimated reaction to buried, or "closeted", nascent or latent homosexual tendencies.

I would've thought masturbation as more "asexual" or whatever it is. you know, like worms.

Just because they don't enjoy it very much doesn't make them asexual.

I didn't think asexual was right. What's the one where the thing has sex with itself and splits off? Like those ameoba things. whatever that is.

If masturbation was parthenogenetic, there would be a hell of a lot of Tuffies running around the world.

I know that amoebae don't reproduce through parthenogenesis, but "binary fission" just doesn't have the same ring.
