| 8 | People who don't know what a horror movie is think Bear not the Wish Willow is the villain of Obsession.It's like how a significant portion of the Midsommar audience focus on the relationship aspect over the white supremacist cult. Authoritarian, obsessed with eugenics, rituals, and casual violence, either doesn't register or is overlooked, some people even see them as benevolent. It takes place in a camp, where those seen of no value, that can't or won't meet the cults requirements, are drugged, humiliated and then burnt together, a Holocaust allegory exploring propaganda's impact on society. | /r/EverydayMisandry | 06/07/26 02:57 AM |
| 0 | Women won't tolerate a male version of AWDTSGIt’s not a “what if” scenario like OP is stating There's so many comments saying this and I can only think it's because they don't engage with the traditional news media. It was only a few months back that there was extensive global press coverage of the tea app hack, that leaked pretty much everything, posts, DM's pic attachments and users ID's for verification, and over the years individual AWDTSG groups have been leaked and reported as harmful, for instance this ex husbands murder, instances … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/07/26 09:59 PM |
| -1 | Women won't tolerate a male version of AWDTSGWhat you described is not a male version of AWDTSG. (I had to google it because we don’t all know what it is). It's surprising how many people haven't heard of it as it was only a few months back that there was extensive press coverage of the tea app hack, that leaked pretty much everything, posts, DM's pic attachments and users ID's for verification.

| 1 | Can anyone list me examples of feminist violence that we know were done because of feminism-related motivations/beliefs?So true, and it's hard to imagine another ideological movement with a similar history, be celebrated, held in such high regard, that most people accept the policies and social/cultural position as fact, and just asking questions is hateful and unacceptable. I remember the global campaign against the red pill documentary when it was released.

| 1 | What everyday disadvantages of feminism do you experience?At least this is a good demonstration of my point though, well documented historical actions that harmed other groups in society are censored because the mention of those actions in response to a question on how an ideology disadvantages certain groups, is more damaging than acknowledging they took place with a significant impact on society.

Essentially you're saying the O… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/06/26 06:06 PM |

| – | Go bag and DNA tests are equivalentIn the emergency preparedness scenario, they might feel offended that their parent doesn't believe they'll never make a bad choice. In the testing scenario, there's some level of suspicion inspiring the insistence on the test, which they might feel is inappropriate. The parents have decided it's worth offending their teen if it protects their child and by extension themselves from something they might do. A DNA test prevents an emergency resulting from something that has already happened. Patern… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/05/26 12:27 AM |
| 1 | Go bag and DNA tests are equivalentNo. The teen would be the other adult who feels mistrusted. In what way mistrusted? They would feel guilt from breaking the trust the parents have in them to do the right thing. The fear they might feel is from being caught, not being hurt by someone. Party A (the parents) does X (obtains Narcan to keep in the house), for reason Y (emergency preparedness based on statistical likelihood) and Party B (the teen) could feel offense.

Any examples where someone doesn't feel like they aren't trusted lies outside of the OP and are a separate conversation. You referred to domestic violence and paternity fraud as the fear people were protecting themselves from, which I agree with. I think the numbers and data you used aren't representative of those fears. For both, the most severe examples are most frequen… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/26 03:32 AM |
| 2 | Go bag and DNA tests are equivalentAnd it's the segue into dropping the kid - which is what most affected men do. Not only did they just find out mom cheated, but now dad's bailed, so they're stuck with mom, trying to handle it alone along with the rejection. Is there any data to support this? Is this from family court data? Contested paternity in family court addresses missattributed paternity, including fraud but not exclusively.

| 2 | Go bag and DNA tests are equivalentWhat we're discussing are paternity tests initiated by men who've been assigned paternity and suspect fraud. His suspicion is integral. The cause of the suspicion isn't necessarily the relationship they're in, it's the examples where there was no suspicion and the impact on all those involved. In the medical or DNA ancestry examples there was no suspicion so they wouldn't have got a test themselves. A woman doesn't suspect he's going to be violent but has the go bag, a man doesn't think she's be… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/05/26 05:14 PM |

Those figures aren't really a fair representation either though. 20% relates to IPV, not physical abuse you've attributed.

| 1 | Male Nudity / PrivacyI'm in the UK and it's the same sentiment. Campaigns encouraging men to be more proactive are ineffective, talking heads and politicians look at every possibility other than formative healthcare experiences. For someone to be in unwell, or in pain and still be reluctant to seek help, suggests they don't associate healthcare as a positive or even neutral experience. I don't think it's malicious, more clumsy insensitivity, mixed with overfamiliarity they think is helpful. | /r/MensRights | 15/04/26 07:23 AM |

I’d be more afraid of a mama bear than a lone male bear. Women also must provide to children and the elderly, sick, and even men. I'm not saying women don't protect and provide for their family.

I just saw a hospital bill where they charged $70 for a pregnancy test. You can get a pregnancy test for $1.25 at dollar tree. Some states in the US and many Governments, including the UK, are increasingly debating the implementation of mandatory paternity tests, on the grounds of cost.

| 3 | Male Nudity / PrivacyYou would think this might register as a significant contributor in men avoiding healthcare. Literature lists a range of factors, from masculinity/stoicism and fear of diagnosis and when avoiding examinations/embarrassment is mentioned, there is no suggestion or link to previous experiences, the logical place to start. | /r/MensRights | 03/02/26 03:06 AM |

A UK policy papers use of terminology, published a couple of years ago, similarly used terminology to influence readers, but would have influenced the data collection, while potentially revictimising boys and men.

In the documentary ‘I am not a rapist’, three cases of false allegations, with evidence of innocence in one case, strong enough for a judge to feel the need to apologise to the defendant, wouldn’t be classified as proven false, as they wouldn’t even be classified as false allegations, only classified as such if the complainant admits to it.

Coming out the gate with wanting to outlaw an extremely common and widely normalized medical procedure makes the entire concept ridiculous to many, many people. The same thing is said by FGM supporters FGM supporters, "Just as the male foreskin covers the head of the penis, the female foreskin covers the clitoral glans.

How are you comparing procedures? It looks like you're comparing outliers in terms of the global rates, the safest male procedure with the riskiest, most invasive female procedure, which comes across as disingenuous.

That's the same thing the men you saw on insta saying, so are you asking why in the same circumstances women still want to get married but men don't?

You didn't address the point I was making, that it's too simplistic and inaccurate to portray porn consumption in that way, especially when there's so much data out there.

The Summer blockbuster starring Emily Blunt and Ryan Gosling. Female nudity still used to sexualise as an object of desire.

| 1 | Women's shame related to masturbationIt may have been more talked about, but not always positively. Came to make this point, between wet dreams and random erections in school, masturbation was and still is more utility than sexual. I'd say most guys of high school age were far more concerned with avoiding public humiliation and waking up in a mess, erections perceived as a lack of self control, sexual stimulation, rather than an involuntary biological process like a venus fly trap, snapping at the faintest pressure. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/05/24 05:22 PM |
