Think of this as a support group for guys who aren't great at interacting with women romantically. We were all in your shoes once. Some people will try to make you feel bad for trying to improve yourself in this way, ignore them, pity them, they can't get beyond the idea that seduction isn't about tricking women into having sex with you.

It feels intense at first, but after awhile it becomes the default and you'll notice the impact it has on your interactions. Something I've noticed: successful people generally are great at eye contact.

Well as we all know, women would be the primary victims of a war with Iran because their husbands brothers and sons die in wars. Those soldiers never have male family that will miss them, and certainly they aren't the primary victims just because they were subjected to death as a direct result of the war. Being a primary victim=(vagina-power)/(political agenda)

Is this really a flip side exclusive to women? The same thing is happening here, except the offender is the one who got pregnant. No matter the gender of the victim or offender, it really goes without saying that the victim shouldn't have to pay child support, and the offender should lose their parental rights.

Well, according to the feminist worldview, minor threats to the availability of birth control or abortion and having your resume taken less seriously by employers (this was based on a flawed interpretation of a study but I digress) is oppression by the patriarchy. But having genital mutilation be legal based solely on your gender, having to register for the draft because of your gender, your gender being punished more severely for the same crimes, your gender being assumed guilty in cases of DV,…

MRAs heap praise on the occasional egalitarian feminist that gets notoriety (Christina Hoff Sommers comes to mind), and are critical of feminist policies and ideas that are harmful to men. It's pretty reasonable when you are criticizing aspects of an ideology, rather than hating a gender. Most of the bad press that MRAs receive is a product of poor public opinion on the idea that men aren't completely privileged and women aren't oppressed, and the subsequent media effort to smear the MRM as miso…

TIL "stripped of all agency/power" and "fully a victim of the Joker" (the words used by the person actually being refuted) is the same as "crying out of fear."

How so? What if I said this: Women can be affected by a variety of actions, such as rape, cat-calling, stalking, or other more minor offenses. Did I just say that rape and other minor offenses are similar in severity just because I grouped them or even mentioned them in the sentence? Or did I just include them in a list of things that can happen to women? Maybe the former is true in feelz> realz lala land.

I'm sorry if English isn't your first language, but if it is you're wilfully misinterpreting what was said, a liar, or very stupid. You can't back up your argument further than pointing out they're in the same list, which as I've pointed out abundantly isn't a valid point.

You've managed to blame overt oppression of men by people in power on men in general, despite the fact that abolishing selective service and the draft wasn't discussed seriously in the US until after women could vote, and it still didn't happen. The only way to do this is to ignore the fact that the majority of men have the same amount of political power as women now, and that historically, most men also had little to no political power. Furthermore there is no evidence that politicians act excl…

Goddammit.

You misrepresented his post, plain and simple. Listing things together does not on its own imply anything about the relative severity of the items grouped, and in this case is clear that's not what he is doing. This isn't a case of us interpreting a post differently, it's a case of you making outrage with no cause. You're creating ragebait out of nothing by claiming he's implying that rape isn't severe when he's done nothing of the sort. That's fucking low. Hence why you're a lying piece of shit…

Grouping something with less severe things doesn't imply they're the same in every circumstance, context matters, and context is the enemy of bullshitters (like you), in this context the grouping wasn't to show similarity, it was to give examples of things which are taken more seriously when they happen to women, you just want him to be saying that. The context and intent of his post is extremely clear, claiming it's wrong to group things of different severity or that it implies similar severity…

When did he undermine the seriousness of rape? There's nothing wrong with grouping rape and other less serious things when the point is that when it happens to women it's taken more seriously.

Wait wait wait, sexism against men isn't as bad when men make the laws? Do you actually believe that? So the victims, because of guilt by association, are culpable for their own oppression, because they share the gender of their oppressor? It's lovely that you think the idea that women aren't suited for war is even close to the idea that men are suited for should be forced to fight in war. How horrible to be spared from the pleasures of war.

I've had this same bullshit discussion with you before, you are very wrong. Pointing out that adults have the capability to reduce risk to themselves by altering their behavior is not the same as claiming they deserved it because they didn't alter their behavior.

The inmates formed a group called "prisoners against rape" and discussed rape in prison and outside, and the permissive attitude towards rape. The film itself never defines "rape culture" but I think we can agree it's when a large group of people condones of rape, a culture where rape is normal. And for the US that only happens with regards to prison, and US policy and towards child sex slavery (primarily boys) in the middle east. There are also microcosms of victim blaming and protecting rapist…

Rape culture is a term originally coined to describe the prison environment that turns a blind eye to rape between inmates, as well as society's view of rape in prison as deserved punishment. There are certainly other places that share qualities with American prisons, but if we're talking about the US, the only real tolerance of rape applies to female on male rape. Of course you might bring up that some police labs don't test rape kits diligently, or that rape accusations rarely result in convic…

How are those ideas patriarchal? I think you are talking about restrictive traditional gender roles, which aren't promoted by either sex exclusively.

My reasoning was that if both parents know of the pregnancy and make their choices while abortion is still a viable option, neither should or would be responsible for the child. If the father isn't notified but would opt out he shouldn't be on the hook at all (no surprise child support requests). If he does know and changes his mind later, he should have to assist with paying for part of the hospital bills and cost of infant care (because the mother carried the child thinking he was on board).

I think a common sense law would work this way: The mother is obligated to inform the father of the pregnancy asap, and the father then has the option of opting out of fatherhood at any time before the third trimester plus maybe a one month buffer (equivalent of an abortion for the father, but the mother has an extra month to decide what she wants to do based on the father's decision for practical reasons). If the father doesn't opt out before that date, he's on the hook for helping pay for deli…

I'd give it one more shot at asking her out, with a specific date and time and activity, and if she says she's busy and doesn't suggest another date, she's either socially retarded or uninterested, and you move on to other…

And people think seduction is about tricking women into having sex with you, if they bothered to look at the sub they'd see that the majority of us seek to improve ourselves and our lives, success with women is simply a symptom of living an awesome life and taking care of yourself.

Which is why they now classify their servers as entertainers.

I'm not even sure why I did the trip tbh, I guess I wanted to "find myself" however cliche that sounds, and this experience was part of that discovery. I made a mistake by not having an up front discussion about what my expectations were and seeing if we were on the same page. That discussion happened way too late and by then I'd already left.

In hindsight, I think it was a bit stupid of me to assume she'd understand that I was really into her, even though is said I really liked her and cared about her, and then decided to keep traveling with her, because it was really sudden and she didn't put it all together until a few days later. It really was something that warranted a more direct discussion on its own, instead of assuming so much, which is why I got my hopes up.
/r/seduction05/09/14 10:09 AM

That really resonates with me, I probably could have said something like "Hey, I know we just met, but I really like you and can see this becoming more than just a hook up if we spend more time together, and that's what I want to do." At that point, she would have to be honest and explain that's not what she's looking for.

Well, we got the the point of both being naked and grinding on each other in my room, I fingered her and ate her out once, we showered together, etc, but never any sex. She said she doesn't have sex easily and I think she had some trust issues. I was hoping to escalate more once we started traveling together but by then she'd already lost interest. I think in her mind it was just going to be a fling and when I told her I was coming with her she got a bit freaked out.

Actually pressuring someone into sex, in the absence of coercion or force, is not rape.

Homeless doesn't necessarily mean living on the streets, it's a state of having an irregular living situation. If you don't have a house/apartment/hotel room that you can stay in at night regularly, you would qualify as homeless. This includes people who use homeless shelters regularly.

The first three are actually true, more women attempt suicide, men on average get paid more (for a variety of non-discriminatory reasons) and men are the majority of homicide victims and murderers. How they extrapolate that to mean that men aren't facing problems by killing themselves more, working harder and more dangerous jobs, or committing and being victim to violent crime at higher rates is a mystery to me.

Actually he described the trends pretty accurately. I think anyone who harms themselves is crying for help, but men generally tend to use more direct methods of self-harm. Women generally attempt suicide as a cry for help, men generally do it to kill themselves. This doesn't discount the severity of self-harm or suicide for men or women, or imply that it's manly to kill yourself or womanly to cry for help using attempted suicide.

You do realize why they want it not done to infants right? Adults can modify their bodies as they wish. I'm assuming you had it done because it was medically necessary and/or a well-informed and personal decision. You could have opted for other therapies but chose that solution. It's a personal choice, doing it to infants is removing that choice and a violation of human rights to bodily autonomy. Routine removal of the foreskin in infants is simply not medically justified, it's cosmetic.

The issue is that the discussion was about sexism, not hypocrisy, although I understand that's what you were bringing up, which a lot of people missed. If her ideology is one of traditional gender roles, she didn't say enough about her own plans in life to determine if she is being hypocritical, maybe she is planning on being a housewife and popping out kids.

False accusations made to police are really the only ones that can be punished legally, libel and slander also if you can prove it.

So the criminal charges associated with a false accusation would be filing a false police report, obstruction of justice, tampering with evidence, etc. depending on the circumstances.

If men face the same sort of public treatment at all, and not all women face this public treatment, then it's not male privilege, it's not even a privilege, it's a cultural trend, not being hit on is a product of being unattractive and in an environment where it's unlikely to get hit on, not a product of your sex.

Just so we aren't confused and working with the same terms, male privilege differs from personal privilege or being privileged.

For an accusation to be false it means no crime occurred, not that the alleged victim misidentified the alleged rapist. Furthermore a lack of supporting evidence isn't sufficient to prove a false accusation, you need evidence that the accusation was false (confession, text or email records, witness testimony, etc.).
