“Real man/not a real man“ sounds like the no true Scotsman fallacy. To be a real man, all you have to do is have the biological makeup of a man (XY chromosomes, testosterone, etc). I get it can be confusing in intersex and trans terms, but this is how to be a real man 101!

Politically and socially, I’m not sure if there’s much we can do (I’m from the US though; we have our own issues). What I planned to do all June but chickened out on was sending all the guys in my life a little text or email that was uplifting and validating toward their needs. Giving individual support is the most I can do, and I feel it’s more impactful since it’s also more personal to each individual guy who receives the text/email.

I’m hopeful, though I really do hope it stays as androcentric as it deserves to be.

Well, we have this sub, for starters! Good start, we now need this kind of thing in real life where guys and their female allies can meet in person. Even then in real life, I still support at least a few male-only groups since I’ve heard abused/assaulted men may get triggered around women since they had a female perpetrator. And some guys just aren't as open with women since they know how that will end.

Being an MRA isn’t male-exclusive; it’s just androcentric — pertaining to the issues men and boys face — as they should be! It’s a bit of androcentricism among a whole heck of gynocentricism, which is progress, I’d admit.

Good point. I still think we should still have a few male-only spaces, though, as long as female-only spaces are also tolerated. If we do allow women and girls in, men and boys should at least have their needs met to make the best out of the experience.

Interesting to know the racial differences alongside the gendered ones! I can kind of understand why these struggles occur with each racial difference, even though I’m an Asian female. With ICE going around these days, of course Latino/Hispanic male survivors are less likely to disclose in fear of being deported. For black male survivors, it’s the aspect of involving law enforcement. Black men are highly likely to be discriminated against as more “dangerous“ and are arrested more often than whit…

I’m not sure if it’s one of the main ones... I think it’s more about “including women“ than anything. I believe it’s more gynocentricism than misandry here. Neither are significantly worse than the other, per se, as they sort of intertwine in these cases, though it’s like the DEI of groups/clubs favouring women, that kind of a thing.

I’d assume that males are just more likely to be involved in a crash, and that’s why data’s so skewed. I learned that yesterday, in driver’s ed. I will try to scour for data, though!

Never did I say male dehumanisation doesn’t exist. I’ve heard of it, and even witnessed it a lot! However, that is only one tiny factor in a multitude of reasons for people denying male-only spaces but praising female-only spaces.

“Misandry doesn’t kill!“ Last time I checked, the global male death rate in itself is higher. Why? Forced conscription, lack of mental health help that leads to suicides, workplace deaths, etc. I recently learned than men are about twice as likely as women to face physical trauma in a car crash (surprising, since I thought the female physique would make women more vulnerable). After I bring that up, it’s just silence and crickets chirping.

That’s probably only one tiny factor. I assume it’s so “women and girls are included.“ That’s a whole hunk of jack crap, since it’s just as easy to do joint sessions or open a whole new co-ed scouts instead of having girls infiltrate the boy scouts.
/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates21/07/26 12:50 PM

What I’d propose is more male-exclusive spaces, but apparently that’s “excluding women!“ The Garrick and Boy Scouts are two examples of male-only spaces that have been infiltrated by women and girls. At least in my town, we’ve got two successful all-boys high schools! I hope they stay that way. Boys need to be around each other more often and interact more to be more successful in the long term.

Too many people only want to help men to help women; it’s all a bunch of gynocentric crap. Help people for the individual humans they are. When did that go out of fashion? Why is that statement all of a sudden “ahead of our time”? Shouldn’t have it been held dear since the beginning of time?

This. I’m so relieved I’m not the only one who’s been bothered by this. I remember having a this whole large debate on misandry and misogyny with ChatGPT, and at a point, I asked, “if patriarchy reinforces misogyny, what reinforces misandry?” ChatGPT then answered also patriarchy, which extremely confused me, but I took it that time since I hadn’t the heart to question the concept of “patriarchy” just yet.

Interesting. They want nondiscriminatory language and ended with “male violence against women,” which is highly misandristic (discriminatory toward men). This is either a paradox or a contradiction, and I can't wait to see how the guys of Italy react to this one. P.S. We hope the answer is that they either hold an uprising or move away.

Feminism is a gynocentric activism, so obviously, feminists will only care that women do well in education. Women have been behind, and now that they're ahead, some may see boys falling behind as “revenge” toward the patriarchy.

I mean, obviously they wouldn’t charge childless women, though it seems as if women are preserved solely for childbearing. I’d assume that’s why it’s illegal to cane women and girls, and why Singapore protects their right to maternity leave more than they protect men’s right to paternity leave.

I’d assume like any other misanthropic country would do, Singapore treats its men purely as soldiers and its women purely as baby-making machines? If you’re not a good soldier/baby machine, you get (extremely) harsh punishment.

I think when women are highly oppressed, the men are as well. Gender roles affect both genders, and when a woman is forced to stay at home, her husband is forced to go out and do the work. Also, the men in those countries are no doubt forced to serve in the draft, as even the draft is open in America. To solve one side, we also have to solve the other as well

I’m kind of talking about those countries that actually oppress women. Forcing them to wear hijabs/burkas, giving them less chance in education, etc. I think Afghanistan has even passed a law recently, saying it’s okay to beat your wife as long as no bones are broken. That is true oppression.

Also, usually, the “oppression” of which feminists speak either are experiences men have also faced (sexual violence and domestic violence), or aren't even that bad (”benevolent sexism,” etc). Have they ever known real oppression (women in Middle Eastern and Asian countries)?

I’m sorry, but when I read this Mom wants an "inflated sense of self" for her daughter to survive patriarchy. it sounded so cult-like to me since “patriarchy“ is literally their favourite keyword. Also yet another way to spot the similarities between feminism and the Nazis, this way of raising kids sounds a bit like Hitler Youth to me...

You’re correct that most people who hold power are men, but it’s still all men till it’s none /s. Men must face the same consequences of the few men who rightfully deserve that consequence (collective punishment). This does not apply to women, as that’s misogynist and makes you an incel. Women have been oppressed long enough; now it’s men’s turn /s.

This “patriarchy“ thing still makes no sense to me. You think if women were that opressed, we’d all know patriarchy like the back of our hand. As long as the concept of patriarchy is like quantum rocket maths to me, I doubt it exists or has much affect in my life, at least.

What in God’s green earth is “benevolent sexism”? Imagine being so entitled that you’re ungrateful for even the advantages and privilege you have, calling it “oppression” and “sexism.” What’s really sexist is putting all that burden on guys to pamper gals.

I can’t believe the male-only draft is still enforced even in a first-world country like the US. We’ve got a long way to go before we reach gender equality of any kind, so long as young men and even boys are forced to war in all sorts of countries around the world.

Not surprised! I was a girl scout only in kindergarten, and I barely remember anything about it. I would’ve joined a gender-inclusive scouting group, anyway. But not one that used to be for boys only; that’s just barging in. Did the lawsuit get much focus, or was it mostly shoved off to the side?
/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates14/07/26 01:38 PM

I’d add The Garrick Club (traditional English gentlemen’s club) and The Boy Scouts (now Scouting America) to that list, there! I ashamed at the screeching double-standard that women can barge into men’s safe spaces, but men cannot do the same to women’s spaces. If cis women can be allowed in male-only spaces, it’s only fair that trans women and even cis men be allowed in female-only spaces, and I say this is a conservative, usually right-leaning Catholic.

It just seems that gender and sexuality is so much looser in Protestant settings, especially considering that some denominations allow homosexuality, birth control use, being transgender, etc. Catholicism has never allowed any of that. Also, I am really curious to know under which right conditions masculism could’ve become mainstream before feminism!
/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates13/07/26 08:58 PM

That is very interesting; I did not know that, but am not surprised to hear about more right-wing women due to Mother Mary. I love my Mama Mary! I see Saint Joseph as a great male role model for men and boys, however, and I pray for his intercession every day before I come onto Reddit for LWMA and my male survivor space. I’m not surprised that feminism originated in Protestant countries, since Catholics have a much stricter view on gender roles (which I don’t normally follow).
/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates13/07/26 06:53 PM

Yeah, and I’ve noticed that in media. If the majority of sexual violence victims in juvenile prison are boys, news says “X number of children, including X number of girls,“ if applicable. No news I’ve seen highlights boys in any way, shape, or form unless it’s an all-boys prison, and even then, news would just say “children.“

I am Catholic, but I am fully supportive of you and suggest you take a look at my post about Biblical misandry!

This is a harmful Hammurabi's Code way of thinking. There is absolutely no excuse or justification for rape. Not for punishment, not for reimbursement, nothing. We have to remember that even if someone does commit violent crime, they are still human and most likely hurting.

I can kind of relate, mostly with the “my roof, my rules“ thing. I was freaking adopted, also. Whenever my parents told me “we don't owe you anything,“ no matter the context, one of two things would occur every time. The first is that I’d technically sell myself slave to them and punish myself severely whenever I didn't live to their expectations, and the second that occured more after I realised that they may be verbally abusive at best was that I wondered, then why even give me anything at all…
/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates11/07/26 11:21 PM

Your point about mothers is amazing. And I’ve seen studies that show more mothers are abusive than fathers, and it’s usually sons being abused (by either parent). I’ve experienced some verbal abuse myself, and the amount of time it took to even acknowledge that for myself was much longer than I’d wish upon anyone. Mothers are usually the stay-at-home parent, therefore get many more opportunities to hurt the children than fathers do.

I just don’t like the term in general. It has such a bad connotation now, and even masculinity without any descriptors does.

They teach their sons such inappropriate things at such a young, vulnerable time! I saw one video where a little boy called his mom sexy in the dress she was trying on, and that made me wonder now who taught him such language, huh? Children see, children do. Children hear, children say.

That reminds me of what I was thinking! Patriarchy totally exists, but patriarchy is a misnomer. More like strict gender roles/norms, since they advantage and disadvantage a gender at the same time. All this rhetoric around “patriarchy“ and “toxic masculinity“ sounds more like a sweeping generalisation and victim-blaming than digging deep, even as deep as hell, to find the real issue.

At least some US states have gender-neutral rape laws! In the UK, you need a penis to be charged with rape, so male survivors who were forced to penetrate are bound to be left out. The UK really is not a safe place for men. At least they have the ManKind Initiative and Abused Men in Scotland shelters for men, which is a plus, I guess.

If boys and girls are different, what’s it with trying to make them “equal“? If they’re different, why are we trying to break down “patriarchy“? Feminists tryibg to “break gender stereotypes“ while also saying “guys and gals are different“ sounds hypocritical.

I mean, it really is true that men are targets of violence more often. They’re also still forcibly drafted in some countries, which pushes them to be both an instigator and a victim of violence when they might rather not, and instead live a peaceful civilian life. There has always been an epidemic of violence against men and boys, and instead of trying to cure it, we’re staying complacent at best or worsening it at worst.

I notice that in videos as well. They focus too much on the perpetrator and not enough on the victim.

Surprisingly, I was so done with feminism when I discovered LWMA so I joined without hesitation.

I mean, the FBI of America counted more rapes against men than against women even with a gendered, penetration-focused statute since prison rape was also counted. This was fourteen years ago, in 2012, and this made America the first country in history to have counted more male rape survivors than female rape survivors.

I think the reason why we focus so much on feminism is because it really is a huge barrier to male rights. Even if something affects everyone, such as an earthquake, feminists will demand women and girls be given assistance first, even when men and boys are just as affected or possibly even more affected. We still have wage gap rhetoric when women are doing better in education and in the workplace than men are. All those wider left-wing topics you’ve described are indeed issues that deserve disc…

I feel bad for the guy, really. He’s got to change himself only while his wife can stay the same.

That‘s my main issue. Why do feminists love the victim card so much? I saw this one quote and I was blown away at the genius bluntness of it.

I wonder why the definitions have even been like that in the first place.

Also, some versions of Homer’s Odyssey feature female dieties like Circe and Calypso raping Odysseus via coercion or magic traces. If it’s feature in literature, surely it should’ve been in real life since people write about what their senses pick up…

I do not believe things are equal or just at all unless the genders are treated equally as survivors/victims and equally as perpetrators. We all know men can rape women.

This is great info with excellent sources! I’d apply this to domestic and intimate partner violence as well! A majority of unilateral violence perpetrators are female, yet when we bring domestic or intimate partner violence up, there’s this widespread impression that the men are hurting the women.

Koss said, and I quote, “It is inappropriate to consider as a rape victim a man who engages in unwanted sexual intercourse with a woman“ and called male survivors “ambivalent about their sexual desires.“ The last quote and the way she used engages makes it seem as if the guy wanted it or even liked/enjoyed it.

Why haven’t we been counting them as the same? How is being forced to penetrate different from being forcibly penetrated? When I look at CDC and NISVS stats, I simply count the forced to penetrate and rape stats together with the best of my mathematical ability.

Even under the US’s general definition, more rapes were counted against men and boys (prison rape), making America the first country to count more male survivors than female survivors. Imagine what adding forced to penetrate would do to that already male skewed statistic.

Actually, a whole lot, about 80-ish percent if I’m not mistaken, but the problem is that said care is not helpful, thus men dropping out of therapy and giving up. It’s so sad; really, we need to tailor mental health care to boys and men if we really want to help lower male death rates.

I have an issue with this study. It defines rape as, and I quote, “forced sexual intercourse, including both psychological coercion and physical force. Forced sexual intercourse means vaginal, anal, or oral penetration by the offender(s).“ That definition erases all male survivors who were forced to penetrate, which really should be counted as rape.

If we cannot use stats, what else can we use to make a logical argument? I agree that stats are hard; I don’t like them very much as well, but I’m not sure if subjectives can be used any better than objectives. Even stats can get subjective, so what’s to say subjective subjectives are better?

It goes back to the fact that feminism is a gynocentric women’s movement, thus called feminism. Talking about men’s issues without blaming men or the patriarchy takes away from all the gynocentrics of that. And apparently, bringing up male issues “undermines women!“

Crazy thing I saw on TheTinMen blog, if we added all different types of IPV-related deaths, men would be the primary victims bcause we added the “suicide“ category, in which many men in abusive relationships have at least attempted, especially if they are the victim. The only category women are most affected in is actual homicide. Men in IPV are more likely to die from all other categories such as law enforcement intervention and corollary deaths.

How I view misandry versus misogyny is this: Misogyny such as “women are weak” can easily be proven wrong. That’s the worst type of misogyny I’ve faced so far and I can prove it wrong. Misogyny is mostly about false assumptions. Misandry, on the other hand, is a bunch of crap expectations. Those, you can’t run away from as easily because expectations are probably more policed than mere assumptions. And I can think of many more misandry examples since I‘ve seen and heard of misandry much more oft…

Yet another area in which women can play the victim. We talk so much about beauty standards, but have we really noticed the standards for men? My sister had been listening to some song recently, and as I really listened to the lyrics (unlike she does), I noticed that Superfruit’s “Guy.exe“ points out almost every single expectation people have for men pretty cleanly.

There’d be more shelters for male survivors of DV/SA, and even the bare minimum: they’ll be taken seriously. On that same note, take every accusation seriously, but do not immediately believe the complainant. If it’s a false allegation, that guy’s life is ruined. Also, add a false accusers’ register and charges for false accusers that are similar to the sex offenders’ registry and charges. Misandry would be acknowledged and taken seriously. Possibly even labelled as sexism (if society’ll let us)…

If a man dares lay a hand on a woman, he’s cancelled. If a woman (or anyone, even) dares lift a knee to a man’s no-no square, people laugh at his face distorting in pain. We can hit the male character all we want since y’know, he’s a man. Just like we can send young men, and even boys off to fight war. Just violent soldier war machines, that’s men to society.

Welcome back to “Would It Survive the Gender Swap.“ Today, we’ll consider whether men’s cologne made from FGM is acceptable. If not, why is this??? Circumcision is a heinous act of sexual violence toward a nonconsenting baby boy, which is already terrible enough. And now the foreskins are being used in women’s skin creams. No words could convey how appalled I am at this, despite having already heard about this via TheTinMen blog.

Welcome to the sub!!! I respect the accountability and willingness to research even if results don’t align with your view. Misandry and misogyny are both buns of a crap sandwich, or two sides of the same ugly coin. And it is cyclical. If we stop one, the other’s demise will almost surely follow.

I do colour guard and once told a flautist that I like guys in colour guard. They’re confident in their masculinity, possibly not caring if anyone makes fun of them. She responded with “all colour guard boys are twinks“ which I could see from the bodily aspect, but it sounded pretty mocking to me. Gentlemen, do whatever the heck makes you happy, whether “girly“ or “manly.“

Hmmm, because masculinity is a thing so heavily policed that even if a guy displays emotion, he’s seen as less of a man/weak/etc. However, I’ve never seen or even heard of gays being excluded from male spaces. That seems quite extreme, especially since we can’t really judge a person’s orientation based on looks alone. A guy must tell us first that he’s gay; we can’t just assume and magically be right every time.

Exactly!!! For every misogynistic thing, there’s ALMOST always an equal and opposite misandristic thing!

I think I have much right to believe men are sexually judged much more brutally than women. If a man shows interest in a woman’s body, even if he has no malicious intent, he’s objectifying her.

Took time to reasearch, but according to RAINN, states such as South Dakota and Tennessee require the perpetrator to do the penetrating.
