3	What are some criticisms about the other gender that make you roll your eyes or cringe? Maybe not a criticism as such, but the general idea I often see expressed from women that men are largely unattractive, lacking in style and don’t have basic hygiene and grooming abilities (‘just take a shower etc’) while women are these beautiful people and that you see beautiful women with ugly men all the time. Perhaps this is a result of only being attracted to men and also the places I’ve lived, but I’ve never seen that as true.	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/06/25 07:17 PM
1	What do you actually expect of women? Just giving my opinion here As a Woman TM. I honestly have found the vast majority of this sub’s content to be non-hateful, especially when compared to some more mainstream MRA subs and pretty much every feminist community out there these days. This is why I choose to come here for a lot of my gender-related content. I see some things I don’t like, which is natural anywhere. I don’t read the threads about dating, and I really dislike some of the discussions of ‘hypergamy’. I personally have stru…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	20/08/20 05:18 PM
2	Do you think there is any possibility of having a reasonable, cohesive men's advocacy movement? Warning: generalisations based on personal experience ahead. I can relate to this a lot. I remember discussing gender issues in university pretty frequently. Most of the men who spoke were left wing in their politics, and they nearly always were more supportive of the feminist position, even if not entirely. The men who most strongly spoke up in favour of men’s rights were generally a different type. A lot more likely to be right wing and come from right wing families, and espouse viewpoints lik…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	17/05/20 01:42 AM
7	They don't want us IN feminism. They don't want us forming our own spaces. What do they want us to do and what should we do? I see these sorts of dynamics where one group is allowed to participate as long as they follow the exact wishes of another group at all times as a kind of large-scale illustration of abusive relationship dynamics: no matter what you do it will be wrong, and even if the other party is inconsistent or hypocritical and you point it out, it is your fault. There is no real logic involved. As magus678 said, the best thing is to distance yourself and advocate sensibly for your own interests. At least t…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	10/05/20 12:37 AM
2	The left and feminism From my personal experience, for what little it is worth: one or two years ago I would go into Facebook and see at least one article or comment about feminism, or a personal comment complaining about experiences with men. Now I see a lot more economic leftism and environmentalism, and a lot less about gender, race and sexuality. Or maybe all those people just unfriended me. But I do think there is a shift going on.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	03/05/20 05:58 PM
1	Woman opines that "ironic" misandry isn't funny and needs to stop. Pinkpill brigade shows up to accuse her of being a "Pickme simpette" who just wants male validation. Goodness this is a whole new level. In related news, I remember reading GenderCritical semi-regularly a few months ago. I obviously disagreed with most of their posts, but I remember them mostly hating transgenderism then, but now most of the recent posts seem to be just about hating men. It seems like things get worse every time I look at the gender discussions the internet, or is that just my perception?	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/04/20 05:40 PM
7	Suggestions for for real life activism? The closest I came was emailing the university ‘equalities’ (what a joke) representative, and ask her to discuss men’s issues. She gave me a phone appointment and talked to me for about two minutes, told me men were able to use the health services provided by the university, that I was the first person who had ever mentioned the issue, and that the fact that I was a woman just showed that men weren’t interested in equality because they were too lazy to do anything about it. I also put up a few p…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	25/04/20 03:49 AM
