In the current culture it seems that women can be forgiven in the same way that children are but they aren't considered children if it would get in their way. I would tell HR the same thing they would hear about any other class of people. Can you imagine if someone said this about race?

All women are not the same. Let's not make the same mistakes so many people do in social activism. There are many respectable women. There are women who completely sympathize with men and women who don't sympathize but respect men and other people who want to live and behave differently than they do. Men and women are different in behavior and thought in some ways and these trends show up readily in the population. This itself doesn't make one or the other better or worse so long as they don't f…

Many people here are simply wrong about this. The average man is much stronger than the average woman. Teenage boys are stronger than female professional athletes. I train in MMA. I can promise you that even the top female fighters in the world would not have great odds against decent amateur male fighters (but yes they would devastate an untrained man). It's completely different potential. I'm not defending the things OP is complaining about though. Imagine it this way. One person assaults a pe…

I see it kind of in reverse. I'm fine with dark or dumb humor. But the double standard is what is annoying to me. The assumption from the ad is that men want women to treat them like this. People don't care if you broadcast assumptions about men. And if we were to reverse the genders here, people would be upset because of the assumption of assault from men, whereas people reduce SA from a female to something somehow innocent. I don't care what people make light of, but if they need to be consist…

No but I think the double standard is ridiculous. Major newspapers review female sex toys and grocery stores will put graphic erotic novels on shelves. A sexual assault allegation against a man is still assumed true in public opinion.

I had a room of about 70 people furious with me because I said that if men are visibly angry at work it is unprofessional just as it is for a woman to cry and that both should be called out. This was a discussion about women in tech jobs. One girl tried to back me up and said "what's wrong with that? he's saying it should be fair." and the whole room hated her too. Afterward a few women came up to me and thanked me for not going along with the crazy narrative, but the majority just gave me angry…

Oh this is nowhere near fair. That's why I said I have no scientific knowledge. There is a selection bias in multiple forms including what you mentioned but also things like region of the world and even neighborhood, cultural trend, etc. I met many of the women at the peak of a time where it was fashionable to complain about the patriarchy. So it's also selecting for the most socially impressionable people.

I have no scientific knowledge of this but in my life I've met about 20 very cool gay men and none who were terrible. I've met about 3 very cool lesbians and about 20 who were terrible. I just mean this from social experience. All the lesbians were just stereotypes of making their whole personality about having a chip on their shoulder.

Well, these days a lot of it is. At one point it was about equality, but after that went through it just became a tool to use to get out of responsibility. They want men who accomplish more than they do, but they also want to believe the only reason they don't accomplish more is not their vault. To have the cake and eat it too. As always, not all women are like this, but a visible part of modern feminists.

I'm not sure that's what he is saying but I don't think it makes any sense to say rape has nothing to do with sex. If it is "only about power" then why even engage in the sexual portion of it? The show of physical force and bodily control is not dependant on sex. In fact, it would demonstrate more power to force yourself into a stronger person rather than a woman who will typically be smaller and much less athletic. Why target women at all if it is not sexual?

It could be a joke and I don't have a problem with that but in the general culture there would be a huge blowback if you joked about hitting women. Maybe you could do it in a roundabout way very carefully, but you can say just about anything about abusing men and it doesn't cause any issue.

As I recall there is basically no economist who agrees that there is a pay gap once you control for important factors like line of work, hours and experience. Pay gaps that do remain after those things are small percentage differences that can't be said to be the result of discrimination. People have often taken the measure of all females working versus all males and just looked at the big averages. Then they make conclusions that are politically aligned with what they already believe. If you do…

I agree with you that physical control is unacceptable as a response to speech, but I have to think most people would accept that above comment had the OP been in reference to most other groups of people.

There are definitely songs that shit on a particular woman in a breakup, and there are songs that maybe demean women or objectify them in certain ways. But I can't think of any song that both pushes the view that women are an evil group of people, and encourages people at large to discriminate against them and causes the song to be celebrated. The "bitches and hoes" stuff is not understood as something we should educate young adults on, while the misandry is taken seriously far more often.

These are all pretty good points. I've always said that in the event of a divorce, if one person was raising children and keeping the household tasks going, they are entitled to something. But there's just no reason they are entitled to 50% of say, millions of dollars. More like a handful of years of entry level work and the early years of childcare do a payout. If both parents work and further their career, they will eventually end up with more money, even considering all the costs of childcare…

We don't have a full transcript of everything said in court and its typical to address the crime as its effect on society. Pointing out the damage something like this does to women, or anyone who might need help in a similar situation is also an effective way to get through to people who need a contradiction to see what's wrong with their thinking.

Ridiculous. The main reason is testosterone which gives you a drive to compete and be physical. There are plenty of other reasons to do it but that's the main explanation for the gender difference. It's not sexism it's just a preference. Notice how the reverse is never claimed. Nurturing roles that involve social skills, like many types of nursing which can be great careers are female dominated, but nobody says men are being kept out.

I'm speaking in very general terms and not saying everyone behaves like this, but on average I think culture as a whole treats men as people who have to make something happen and women as people who have things happen to them. This removes most responsibility from women and allows shaming of men in situations like you describe. When it comes to sexual devices of any kind, people are very tolerant to what women do.

That's not even true at all. Women hardly face any consequences for cheating. They can make up a story about "finding themselves" or even blame it on the man by saying he didn't "make her feel" how she wanted so the cheating is justified or excusable. They have almost no responsibility in relationships at all. I wouldn't buy it, but I think social media would be more likely to accept that women who are promiscuous face more consequences than men who rape. It's hard to think of any time where a w…

I've often felt like women are expected to be treated as children in a relationship. The man is responsible for their emotional state, money, and general happiness. If anything goes wrong it's the man's fault, even if it's the woman who breaks the relationship. That's how you get those cheating stories where the woman can defend herself by saying "well he didn't make me feel good so I found someone else".

I've been saying this for years. The way men look, even on cheaper TV shows, is nearly impossible to get to. If they aren't completely jacked on steroids, they are still muscular with very very low body fat. Both of these things would take 10+ hours a week and a draconian diet, with a very high likelihood of steroids in the bulked up case. This is far, far less "realistic" than female actresses or models, even considered to be most attractive. If they're at a healthy weight, they could maintain …

The most consistent thread I see through all the varieties of feminism talked about is that women aren't responsible for anything. A woman can cheat on her husband or boyfriend and you will get a story about how its his fault for not making her feel like she should be with him. Not all women are like this and not everyone lets an excuse like that pass but the fact that it is ever taken seriously is totally insane.

Although I would not be surprised if almost every man involved in it has at least one woman who eagerly enjoys the spoils of his criminal activity while inheriting almost none of the risk.

I would almost say some of the best movies of certain genres are female leads. Alien/s, Terminator 2, Fargo, Fury Road I don't think the gender has much to do with anything. The idea that the audience needs to "identify" with the on screen character is something that might only be true for young children, if its true at all.

I would say it depends. Lifting weights doesn't require lots of dynamic movement.

But there's still a double standard. I can sympathize with a woman who is trying to work out and doesn't want restrictive clothing, but also isn't trying to get attention.

I think the answer has to do with female sexuality often revolving around their partner's attraction to them.

That seems totally impossible to enforce fairly in any way. Harassment should require someone to tell the other person to leave them alone. If they persist, then they are harassing.

I think you have grossly misunderstood what is going on here. The author of the article would most likely be in agreement with many posters here. She is very likely not part of the current wave of feminism. It becomes hard to take this sub seriously when it makes such sweeping generalizations about "women". Based on the article, I'm sure most people would brand the author a TERF and want her nowhere near modern feminism. She probably never supported trans women like most people college aged do. …

I know this is satire but I don't think the idea of "unrealistic standards" holds up at all for adults. If you are so far from thinking for yourself that you can't realize these things are ideals and not expectations, I don't have much sympathy. For adolescents maybe, especially girls. But even in that case, that's the job of parents to handle. It doesn't make sense to blame movies for the issue if your daughter is upset with how she looks. She needs wisdom, not censorship. The other odd thing i…

This isn't unique to men, but it is weird that when you reverse the genders people are much more upset about it.

I hardly understand why it exists at all. Yes there are cases where someone has raised children and sacrificed their career. Something needs to be done so they aren't automatically homeless. But there are so many insane cases in it's current form.

I think proven false accusations should carry at least the same sentence as the accused crime.

FGM is also shielded by religion to a great degree but for males its on a much larger scale.

Ideally there would be no reason to split these things by gender like this. There's no part about me being a man that means I should be more concerned about men's issues than women's. Of course we want a world without trouble for anybody. I just hate the broad generalizations and cult mentality that I see from (many, but not all) people who call themselves feminists. And I think we should be honest that there are some very incel sounding comments from some varieties of men's rights that cast hug…

Actually, I can't take any theory seriously that depends on entertainment media influence. That might be believable if we are talking about very young children, but teenagers? No way. Has anyone ever supplied good evidence for this kind of thing having significant impacts on people old enough to drive a car or have a job? I'm not aware of anything. Think about what that person is suggesting. Batman doesn't encourage studying? Ok so what does he encourage? Fighting crime and vigilante justice? Ar…

If there were a citation here I could take a look and see. There are many possibilities. Right now this just reads as somewho who hates feminism and while I agree there are plenty problems with feminism, I also don't expect to be taken seriously if I just put blame there without evidence.

I'm not denying that those things have happened. I'm saying I doubt that the reasoning for what I quoted would be described that way.

They backtracked having papers graded nameless by outside teachers because all of a sudden women didn't do better than men anymore. I highly doubt that was the reasoning.

Feminism is a broad term though. There are definitely "feminists" that support men's rights. I do not want to just have more identity politics around these issues. The only reason to even call something out as a men's issue or a woman's issue is when the general population ignores it because of bigotry, and it's the bigotry we should all be against. Yeah feminism has some stupid history behind that name, but I am not going to draw more lines because of that. I would much rather work with people …

Isn't this totally insulting to women? To me this says they are too dumb to rise above something as obvious and childishly manipulative as advertising. For tweens and teens I think there is an argument, especially if they don't have great parents. For adults this is kind of like saying "I'm forced to eat at taco bell because they had a commercial". It's blaming someone else's suggestion for your own problems. I can imagine a stereotypically male equivalent. "You're an incel because society has b…

Big difference between looking and "staring" though. A glance or a look is part of knowing where obstacles and people are in a room. I don't agree that it is ok to stare at anyone. Imagine if you are being stared at by another man. You would be wondering if he knows you, if he is trying to intimidate you, if he is planning to intercept you later for something benign or dangerous. Now if you are a woman you can have all the same questions but with the added high likelihood that he is casting all …

I think the site is more centered on women worried about dating guys who are married or lying to their girlfriends about seeing other women. There is a double standard there and I agree it is a privacy violation. I can see the use if she has seen someone for a long time and has had suspicious signs but for the first few dates it sounds crazy.

Also those stories of going to a foreign country so you can bang a dude who has an accent, just "finding yourself" or having a "romantic adventure". Guy does it and he's just a pig.

That's the reason I never bought into it in the first place. Labor is the most expensive part of almost any business. If you could cut it by even 1% reliably that would be a big deal. You also hear claims that people don't hire women as a result of sexism. I can't imagine any serious company doing that. You're going to cut your hiring pool in half for no good reason?
