Yes none of the things I mentioned exclusively affect men. But they all affect men more than the selective service, which was my point.

Literally anything that negatively affects men. The manosphere, the minimum wage, homelessness, drug ods and suicides, the negative mental health consequences of social media. Heck, the loss of reproductive rights for women negatively affect men more than registering for the selective service.

I'm not saying you shouldn't advocate for this. If it speaks to you by all means. But there are about a zillion things that I personally think are a more serious threat to the wellbeing of men than this. This is not something I intend to be putting effort into in the near term.

written erotica and filmed sex are so different it would be extremely weird to include them in the same category.

A lot of women and feminists are not great at understanding that just because the people in charge are men, doesn't mean men as a group are in charge.

I think they were asking about the ad. Not the party positions on who we serve. I'll see if I can find it. That said, the who we serve page is archived here: https://archive.is/9rRI2

So it's definitely a mix of things. Negative generalization about a group, even if theoretically only talking about a subset of that group, will always make member of that group defensive. You see it everywhere. Almost everyone I've met will react like this, except maybe some self-hating white people (and even they often have this reaction but just suppress it). The online gender wars take this and just crank it all up to 11 in toxic feedback loop. I don't see this nearly as much in real life, b…

This is a misunderstanding of the complaint. The critique is for people who think feminism is the panacea of human flourishing, that it helps literally everyone. In reality, no group can be for everyone and everything. It's just not practical. A movement that is advocating for everyone is really advocating for no one. It's right and very much OK that you pick a few topics that matter to you and then advocate for them. The issue that crops up is that all too often feminists try to police men's sp…

While I'm personally convinced sex work is extremely bad for everyone involved, especially the workers, I'm not convinced that it should be illegal everywhere. Like a lot of industries, it matters how and where you do it, largely because of the ancillary effects I think it's reasonable to not to want a brothel near your home or kids school, or near your own storefront that caters to the general public. If someone is discreetly making content in their home, and no one nearby can tell, then what's…

I will die on the hill that reading smut is not the same thing as watching porn. The 1 to 1 comparison that is often made in male reddit subs drives me batshit. I say this as someone who both reads smut (targeted towards men) and watches porn. Anecdotally, I know plenty of women that read female erotica (including my girlfriend). While it's not my thing, I've checked these books out and they aren't the bodice ripper kind that depict abusive relationships and dark tetrad men in a positive light. …

Yes, he is overblown, but don't mistake your lack of exposure for lack of influence. You just aren't in the demographic. I actually meant my comment to say basically this. There's deeply concerning pipeline from "ironic" to "maybe he has a point." It also drives behavior as younger boys mimic what he's saying to get a reaction, and that's bad for them and everyone that has to interact with them, especially their female peers.

Andrew Tate is mostly influencing younger boys. Like in middle school and high school. He's a lot less appealing to older men. I sort of get it. Maddox (bestpageintheuniverse) was that guy when I was in high school. Boys love the content because it's edgy and countercultural. I'm sure the degree to which they actually believe he's offering good advice varies wildly.

I mean feeling lonely sucks no matter what. And it's true lots of women also experience soul crushing levels of loneliness. It also seems to be true that it's getting worse for everyone. That said, by every measurable metric that isn't just self-reported feelings of loneliness, men are doing worse.

The other thing that always comes up is: "studies show women self- report being just as lonely as men". Which is genuinely interesting considering that by every objectively measurable metric, women have more social connections and support. This raises the obvious question: do women just need more social connections to not feel as lonely or is there some funky going on with the self-reported loneliness studies?

I don't base my politics based on what assholes say on the internet. I base my politics on what I want the legislators to do (or often not do), and I base my objectives on what I think would ultimately best for everyone.

I mean, I noticed you didn't answer my question. But my point was that it varies a ton. Lots and lots of jobs are as easy or easier. Ask any SAHM who later went back to work if they found work easier and it will give you a clue as to what is really easier. Probably more accurately than your example, since many breadwinners haven't actually experienced both scenarios. As you noted about some office jobs, being a SAHP can be very taxing. Look, I'm not trying to say that working outside the home is…

I mean, a ton of women really really prefer to go back to work. That's super common.

Are you married with kids? Like, you're not wrong that slaving 8-10 hours a day at a job you hate, especially a physical job, is really really tough. But lots and lots of dads have jobs that are a lot less taxing than a steel foundry worker. That's still real work, but it's often not much harder (or even less taxing depending on your kids and your own personality) than being at home with kids. If you have a young kid, or even worse, multiple very young kids, it's really really hard to actually g…

It's possible to have this conversation while also injecting some nuance into it. Some of the problem with discussions about family dynamics online is that people take broad trends and try to apply those directly their (or someone else’s) specific relationship. IMO, broad social commentary shouldn’t be used to analyze your personal marriage and family, at least under most circumstances. My job as a father and husband isn’t to leverage my family and my kids to promote social change, but rather it…

The nag is a great comparison, because there are absolutely women who do that. There are also men who talk down to women by explaining things. Both are now more often just used as gendered insults that attempt to shut someone up.

I don't even know what feminism is. It's frankly too broadly applied to have a real meaning anymore.

I realized this when I looked at the DMC positions page. They are so scared of appearing to care about men as a group they won't even mildly pander to them on a few topics. We're so fucked.

Bernie rarely talks about woke stuff at all. Its almost all classic democratic socialist stuff.

My skeptical hot take is that the online gender wars have created an alternate, yet increasingly manifest reality that doesn't map well onto in-person lived experience. We need to fix out media consumption and cool off the online gender wars.

Fascinating. It's always wild to me how so many attacks on men from so-called progressives rely on what they would call "toxic masculinity" from anyone else.

Thanks. Definitely agree with a lot of what you said here. I will say though that the elite backing Harris likely has as much to do with how volatile and unpredictable Trump is, along with the fact that his actual policy suggestions are insane. It's also true that lots of elite people backed Trump. If being the richest man in the world backing a billionaire to be president isn't "elite", I'm not sue what "elite" means anymore. Though your point about faux leftism is 100% spot on.

Left wing social circles very enthusiastically specify the ways in which to NOT be a man, and it tends to revolve around traditionally masculine things. Do you have a characteristic example of this you can share? The only thing I can think of is some of my more liberal friends disgust around combat sports like MMA.

All fair points. Downside of a left/right paradigm is that there are lots of different dimensions to public policy that may or may not sit well within that.

They've tacked to right starting in 2021, and now Harris is running basically as a centrist border hawk. But if you go back to 2019 and 2020 not only were the overwhelming sentiments among democrat voters further left than ever on the border and immigration, but you so a ton of these reflected in public comments by the democratic politicians running for office.

There's definitely a tendency for people to react by overshooting, because they feel like it's necessary to balance out the extremism they see on the other side. The US elected a president who bragged about sexually assaulting a woman and wanted to build a wall along the Mexican border. In response, #metoo dominated the Left and the democratic party became more liberal on immigration than at any other time in history.

Has this sub always just been the spillover from mensrights? I swear there is so much right-wing and centrist POVs here.

I mean, it does seem to be the case that boys develop a bit slower, while there is also bias in schooling. His suggestion about redshirting boys is just a pragmatic way to address the problem that is relatively simple and actionable. I don't really have a problem with him suggesting it, but I do think it's a terrible idea, largely for the reasons you've outlined.

Fair. Also, in my example it's not even all hierarchies. There are always only a subset of specific ones in mind.

It's because social commentary on the left is primarily about breaking down social hierarchies and viewing social problems through the lens of oppressed/oppressor dynamics. In gender, the oppressor is men and it's a much harder sell to suggest we need to help oppressors. Not to say that there aren't thoughtful ways that folks on the left have approached the topic, but this sentiment runs deep and cuts across the left. The right is largely about upholding hierarchies, because it is believed that …

My personal favorite is "all cis men" as if trans men aren't man enough to hate.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
