I have met at least a half dozen people who claim to be mras who still follow him.

And has hijacked a portion of the mra movement in order to do so, yes. Like Anita sarkeesian and a few others have done with feminism.

I met a lot of good feminists. There are absolutely still problems with the movement but I don't think the movement should be judged based on its weakest links. Just like how I don't judge mras based on the drivel that is Andrew Tate and his enablers.

I don't think any movement should be defined by its weakest links. Just look at Andrew Tate and his enablers. Though I do completely agree that feminism (and pretty much everybody tbh) does not call out bad actors in their respective movements nearly enough.

Anti-feminisim isnt necessarily alt-right. True, but for me, it was, which is why I equate the two. It isn't alt-right for everyone, but it was for me. That vocal "minority" is the most powerful and influental part of feminism, "good" feminists are nobodies who are unaware of how hateful their ideology actualy is while enabling feminists who actually matter (you know the ones who work against gender equal laws and spread anti male bigotry.) by defending their label religiously. The thing about t…

Gender discourse nowadays is just two groups talking past each other. I used to be an antifeminist. The reason was because I faced tons of discrimination, and alt-right talkers and antifeminists were literally the first people to treat me like a person instead of like a man. Im a feminist now, but I won't forget anything about the discrimination and stigma that I faced and continue to face. So I feel I'm in a good spot to answer that question. Its because they don't understand. A large vocal min…

Self-made man and the empathy gap are pretty good, but I have to warn you that good ones are few and far between. There's a lot of good literature out there, but a lot of it devolves into misogyny when the human predisposition to an "us vs them" mentality kicks in in aspiring authors.

Chadwick Boseman hit me hard. I didn't believe it when I first read it. ​ But nothing compares to one other person: I had COVID, I was super sick. I also had been speaking to my cardiologist about some heart palpitations that I had and had a heart monitor on my chest to make sure everything was ok (which it is now but I didn't know that at the time).

It's a strawman with no basis in logic. Yes, elites tend to be male due to past and existing traditionalist societies throughout the world. But that does nothing for the average man. It's like pointing out how the people who tend to perform FGM procedures are women, or how a lot of beauty standards placed on women are reinforced by other women. Or how people of color, while more likely to be murdered, are more likely to be murdered by other people of color, and also tend to commit more crimes, w…

They are right that that is feminism, but if they don't believe in the rights of genders that are not women, they aren't feminists. So just ask: "So then how are you a feminist?" There are good feminists out there, hell, I consider myself one.

Toxic masculinity is a loaded term, I prefer to call it "Toxic traditionalism" From what I know of current era feminism, toxic masculinity refers to the negative societal ramifications of giving men complete control but also complete responsibility over the world. These ramifications include: Women not having power over their lives Men being expected to be strong and take initiative as they have total power over their lives Women not being taken seriously in work (intelligence, achievements, etc…

I wanted to say once they become adults, but then my repressed memories came back. For me, it was around the time the girls in my class started puberty (I was 10) but honestly, it could be earlier.

I'm not so certain. Being scared of people is fair, and men are simply stronger, so more fear will occur if you're afraid of people. I don't think it's a sexism thing.

because straight women are attracted to men, yet men are also scary because stranger danger is increased when the stranger can bench press you likes men -> men have masculine traits -> likes masculine traits stranger danger -> men are stronger -> male strangers more danger -> men have masculine traits -> strangers with masculine traits means bonus danger = both afraid of and attracted to masculine traits

I don't think it's a discrimination thing it's just that meeting people is scary and you as a man are physically stronger than most women so some people see a risk they don't want to take. Paranoid? maybe, but unfounded? No. Though I don't really understand it when you're meeting in public anyways.

I'm of the first half of Gen Z, I was born 4 weeks before 9/11. I haven't seen evidence of overarching patriarchy that oppresses all women (in most place in America).

This is a misrepresentation of simple information. We do get more of our smort genes from our mothers, that's just a fact, and that's because the Y chromosome doesn't do much, leaving the X chromosome to do most of the heavy lifting to make us us. But what I can't get past is the idea that our genes DETERMINE our intelligence, which is just plain false. Don't get me wrong, genes absolutely play a role, but upbringing and education are the main factors.

lmao no, if that were the case less men would be virgins.

But society as a whole? nah. If that were the case, prostitution would be legal.

I believe it's biologically ingrained but that it can be unlearned. We favor women because women are evolutionarily orders of magnitude more important than a man, as women are the bottleneck. A woman can only have a child around once every year or so in her prime, whereas a man can get multiple women pregnant in a single day, multiple in an hour in his prime. For a woman it takes a year, for a man it can take a few minutes, and any other man could do the same job just as well. Therefore the loss…

Ok I looked it up and the laws have since added ectopic pregnancies as a caveat, but the wording is vague and healthcare providers could delay them. I'll give you that one.

And it's an unreliable system where many children are neglected, on top of the fact that pregnancy is dangerous and child support is ridiculous. Speaking of which, ectopic pregnancies are not included in some of these state bills, which are near guaranteed fatal to mother and fetus alike if an abortion isn't performed.

If there were a scan for that, I'd do it because it would put my spouses mind at ease and I love them and care about how they feel. If they've been with me for 5 years they've trusted me that far, but just want to know for sure. I have generalized anxiety disorder and that's the exact kind of thing my brain would want me to ask someone. Not out of distrust but just because of who I am. I've been working on it and have made progress, but it's still something I'd have to deal with.

in order to be able to breach a woman's consent for a test pre-birth you need a court order, and I'm sure you could understand why that might be an issue. For me, I'll absolutely accept necessary risk. But risk can be reduced if my spouse agreed to a test. I just want the stigma surrounding asking for the test to disappear.
/r/PurplePillDebate18/06/22 05:53 PM

These are completely different. This is a testable occurrence to detect a breach of trust. If there were a brain scan to see if a man would inadvertently become a rapist, I would happily submit to such a scan if my spouse wanted me to get one. I wouldn't think it's out of a place of distrust, but a place of fear and wishing for certainty.

There are some people, myself and I would assume you included, that cannot trust anyone 100%, potentially because of things in our past, or maybe just because we're naturally anxious people. This is difficult to live as and with, but there are things that allow some peace of mind, paternity tests being one of those things. I just want the stigma around them, especially asking for them to be dismantled if possible, and for mandatory paternity tests to be given if the stigma can't be shaken.

"A mother cannot give the baby up for adoption if the father identified as such on the birth certificate opposes it." That is true, but you're missing a key part - she wouldn't be able to give it up for adoption the usual way, she'd just give it up to the father. As for whether she'd have to pay child support, that's another issue, and chances are she won't. Secondly, I agree that not allowing women to get sterilized is misogynistic and horrible.

while you're absolutely right that women face greater risk during pregnancy, I have to disagree with the overall idea that a child makes women more vulnerable overall in comparison to men. Before the child is born, it depends on the abortion laws in your area. When you're within that window, the woman has all the power. After the child is born, again the woman has all the power regarding whether or not she wishes to sue for child support or simply give the baby up for adoption. One thing that I …

I can totally agree with that, but the thing is this is a whole different ball game of anxiety. Anxiety isn't a general, one-note thing, and with the amount of times I've seen men unknowingly raise children that turned out not to be theirs, and then they STILL had to pay child support, is sickening, and I absolutely understand why a man would be stoic most of the time, but anxious once conception occurs.
/r/PurplePillDebate18/06/22 03:09 PM

I absolutely understand why a woman could see it as stemming from a lack of trust, but I hope most women understand it comes out of a place not of distrust, but of anxiety.

The distrust is a separate issue.

Here's what I replied to them. ​ cheating because you're unhappy IS a better reason than "because I could". It's not a sufficient reason, there is no sufficient reason, but it's better than "because I could". OP claimed that that was the reason that women cited. I looked at OP's sources, and they are NOT CLAIMING THAT BY ANY STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT MARGIN.

"men were cheating because of opportunity, women were cheating because their relationship lacked romance" "men were cheating because they could, women were cheating because THEIR RELATIONSHIP LACKED ROMANCE". Women claimed to cheat because of their relationship, men claimed to cheat because they COULD at the time. How is that nothing like what I claimed? Cheating is wrong, we both agree. You've said that men do it out of opportunity, and women do it for a reason. That is EXACTLY what I've claime…

the UK and Austrailia in my book. The UK has no sympathy for male victims of sexual assault - in fact written into their laws is a technicality that means in a lot of cases it can't be considered a crime any worse than battery. Austrailia has literally run projects over and over, keeping the ones that benefit women, and getting rid of some that don't give women enough of an advantage.

Around 25% of relationships contain violence. In half of these, the violence is reciprocal - both parties partake. But in ~70% of nonreciprocal cases, the woman is the aggressor. You're right that anecdotes are not universal, so here's a study with a sample size in the tens of thousands.

There's also this study https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1854883/ It kind of implies that women are more violent, but I just think it's because men are raised to never hit a woman, whereas women aren't raised with the same standards placed on them.

No, they're people, because they have been people in the past. We're not talking about people on life support, we're talking about a cell that cannot survive whatsoever outside of its host, and has never had that ability, that literally has less of everything that makes a human than a teratoma.
/r/PurplePillDebate17/04/22 05:12 AM

but theoretically speaking, if possible, killing any cell could be considered murder as it is preventing a fully formed human from growing from that cell. Zygotes are no different, and I don't think there's a point to putting a personhood label on a fetus until it's viable outside the womb because the definition of "person" can be stretched, poked, and destroyed with a simple trial by absurdity, hence why I'm not pro-forced birth.

exactly what I said - if we could clone a person using a skin cell - if scientists were able to take a skin cell and clone you - make a person out of it, would killing skin cells be murder? No? Then why is it the case with an embryo?

So it's not even harassment (unless he did it multiple times) even if he did do it (which he didn't, the articl…

I don't really care what its origins are, but it has the effect of making people think that only men can be perverts, which, as a man, I can confirm, is NOT true. I mean, some men are perverts. That is absolutely true - but women can be pervs too.

even if this weren't a pile of steaming BS, who the hell cares? It's affecting billions of people, why does it have to be a gendered issue? People will do anything to silence other people's issues nowadays. "I had X happen to me" "You think that's hard? I had Y happen to me!" "wow I'm cured! now that I know that other people also feel pain, I have realized that my pain, in fact, never existed!"

I have been slapped, kicked in the nuts, had things thrown at me, etc. Honestly, it wasn't that bad. We were all young, we didn't know what assault meant yet.

Literally was once having a conversation with a woman, she looked at a guy passing by us, and I asked her what she was doing (cause I was young and dumb), she just said "His face was pretty ugly so I was hoping he had some ass to make up for it. He didn't even have a nice ass". Like jesus christ if I said that and someone overheard it I would be fucking crucified.

it does make sense though, there is a stigma around a woman approaching a man. A small one, but it's there. It's like "Hoe behavior" for women to approach men according to some people for some reason. But there's a much larger stigma around a man who WASN'T the one who approached the other, so women usually don't bother. It's human nature to not really want to do something if it's optional for them.

Feminism started when women couldn't even vote, and continued when they fought to be paid the same for the same work. It was about equality. It isn't anymore, but at one point it was.

I just read that entire article. It has a lot of words in it, but I'm not sure if it actually said anything. like...

though I agree with you, the woman has vanished and the man refuses to comment. He's definitely been receiving some abuse and she should be put in prison if that is the case, but it's turned into a missing persons case and it looks like he may have murdered her. She may be abusive, but she doesn't deserve to die.

(if proven) Expulsion at the very least, any other punishment would depend on his age. Like a 17+ year old should be put on the offender registry. whereas a 13 year old boy should just be expelled and given therapy. Sexual assault is bad.

If men could get pregnant, abortion might or might not be legal. There would be just one change to the procedure though. Instead of an actual medical procedure, the doctor would just hand you a glock and tell you to do it your god damned self.

women are told that, just by a tiny minority of people. Men are told that by the vast majority of people It's a fucking awful state of mind. Women aren't cognitively impaired - they should be held accountable for their own actions just like men are. That being said, I disagree with the new Texas law. I think that a 12 year old rape victim should be able to get an abortion.

It's a gendered question. Obviously people aren't only dangerous when they're horny. This was simply the only danger I found relevant to the question.

It is true that some men are dangerous threats. A tiny minority of men, but the demographic is there. And it is also true that some women are dangerous threats, but straight women don't deal with that. Some women just like to err on the side of caution. Those who are vocal about it and say that all men are bad or that men have failed them, however, are a problem too.
