It's gotta be that 55-year-old she was with when arrested. Clearly, he hypnotized her (with his patriarchal penis power) and forced her to do that. Clearly.

Then they'll ask you who made those rules, as if the last 150 years of political change never happened. "Well, women didn't have voting rights until 100 years ago" Neither did men until maybe 200 years ago. And that changed mostly because those men realized they were dying in wars for other people's benefits with no say in who they'd fight.

Same thing, really. Feminism was coined in the 70s (which I would still call modern) so the most you can get is non-western Feminists, such as in Japan and the like.

Yes, that is the stereotype and how we perceive it. Luckily numbers are somewhat resistant to that. Look it up yourself. Erin Pizzey's work is a good place to start. If you don't know, she was the founder of the worlds first battered women's shelters in the UK.

Dude (I will not call you words I don't mean like "love", you are free to passively aggress as you want, tho), before battered women shelters the rates were about the same. Unfortunately, feminists didn't want Erin Pizzey to also provide battered men's shelters, so we're gonna have to make do. Sad for her dog, too.

several years of steadily increasing anti male rhetoric and beliefs (which I still have zero idea of where they came from) My personal consipracy theory around that is that the increase in both gender- and race-based identity politics was a defensive distraction after Occupy Wallstreet. People nowadays often forget the momentum that movement had, and it was basically crushed by internal issues like using the "progressive stack" to establish who gets to speak. Some... people saw how effective it …

A bit of bothsideism, but I can agree to a certain extent that media has a huge influence on politics. Yeah, no. You are not being sincere. "A bit X but I can agree with Y" is clearly a negative judgement. If you calling something as "bothsideism" isn't meant to disparage it, then I'm sorry I got you wrong but you are terrible at phrasing.

How do you accuse someone of "bothsideism" while claiming you know the left-right dichotomy is false? Those are actually mutually exclusive perspectives, in my view. There is no "bothsideism" if you agree "both sides" don't exist. Wtf? And that is besides the point that it is a laughable insult in the first place.

I don't think how mens deaths are treated has it's origin in feminism, though. That's much older. Basically, to remain functional as a species, strong empathy could not be given to all, or we would have found ourselves unable to act at all out of fear. This kind of empathy is a female privilege as old as humanity, imo. When we can afford to empathize, we empathize with women and children. "Femicide" however is a strategy of emotional manipulation we mostly need to thank feminism for, though.

Except, of course, that person would have the "excuse" of not having any exposure. There's a chance exposure would help them realign, and recognize whatever race they hated as human like them. Something this woman is unlikely to do. She has been exposed to men. She found them wanting. She did not realize that was not men but a mirror.

To be fair, there's certainly some selection bias there. Fathers will generally only get full custody if there's something seriously wrong with the mother, or they really fight for it. So the selection of fathers in those studies would be much smaller. Also, very few fathers will have children for the purpose of getting benefits as a single parent. (Read none, because it won't happen)

The reddit comment in the post says it quite well. It gives an advantage to a manipulative parent, mother or father. The mother will likely have an easier time convincing the court, ut it's not completely one sided.

I'm not sure why you seemingly put competition and cooperation in two mutually exclusive categories. To compete does not mean to hate. Competition is about measuring, and especially tribal men were sure as hell incentivised to know themselves and the others who'd hunt 5 ton animals with them as well as possible. Which is done by competing, predominantely though not exclusively.

Hard disagree. Maybe you could say it's excacerbated by the current system, but the system is not it's source. I teach boys, they are (especially physically) more competitive than girls. And I highly doubt that's all nurture. Not that, again, it's not excacerbated by it.

Meanwhile, women seem a lot more united than men because of feminism. One big reason for this is found in the statement itself. Seem. It's about perception. Yes, women have an in-group bias, but primarily it's about dissenters not getting a voice. Which seems a lot more peaceful. For a time.

Dude, just say "yeah, humanity would have fit a bit better than humanness, but I'll keep it as a sign of my humanness", or something, and move on. Humanness isn't really a word in the first place, while humanity very much is. And it's used the way it seems you wanted to use humanness. "They are rejecting their humanity" is more correct than "they are rejecting their humanness", but they mean the same thing.

All the single women I know disqualify men on that one feature alone. The man could be kind, look great, be successful and funny. But without height, they won’t get a look in. Plus, every short man I have ever met has also had quite an over-the-top personality. The Napoleon complex is very real'. HMMMMMMMMMMMM.

I think the perspective that you're not seeing that people criticising you are arguing from is that you are part of an industry that mainly exists because of men's loneliness and in general our gender dynamics. It's not saying you specifically are predatory, it's that the whole business only exists (at the scale it exists at) because quite a large part of men do not get any action. I think that's where they're coming from. Personally, I am mostly also on the side of "ultimately, people have to b…

Upright people with a worthwhile character don't really exist in feminism anymore. They would have been forced by their conscience at some point to remain secure and convinced in their opinion, and would have been thrown out. People like Erin Pizzey or Warren Farrell.

Women aren't really into muscle mountains. At least not to the point of physiques you can really only get by taking steroids unless you're in the top 0.001% for it genetically. Honestly, passing for trans men isn't really all that difficult (for many), even at least moderately handsome men if they weren't overly ugly in the first place. Get a beard and that gets you 90% of the way there.

The German band "Die Ärzte" wrote a song that translates to "Men are pigs" more than 20 years ago. Almost 30 now, actually (fuck). Now, what somewhat relativizes that song is that it is sung (and written) by men. to women. So it's somewhat ironic, at the very least. Most certainly not a song that could be written about women at any point in time, though.

Men are obviously more visual Nah. As is common, generalised statements are generally not true, or at least overstated. It really depends on what you mean by "being visual". For example, women can, on average, identify and tell more colours apart than men can. Men on the other hand tend to have better spacial reasoning. Just going "visual" is idiotic, as if women didn't have plenty of evolutionary need to see. Their need was generally more social than physical, but humans are still really visual…

So? Even if that was 100% of the reason, no one, especially men, is allowed to actually use their physical strength to solve conflicts, legally. You think self-defense would fly in court? Maybe if there was direct camera footage, but even then there's no guarantee. Or at least that's the thought process. The harm these actions cause isn't so much physical, it's mostly mental.

I think that's a very negative interpretation. Do you think the men on that subreddit all feel the same as you? Some might actually be very happy about some female "appreciation", no matter the form. Just an acknowledgment from women that they can actually see their pain. Because from my experience a lot of men are looking for something akin to that, and are severely lacking in it. It's not crazy to think both men and women strive for acknowledgement from the other, that's part of us as humans. …

I’m angry with my own sex. I know that men have had it their way for centuries, but why do we women have to descend to that same unevolved view that one gender has to be on top? How she doesn't realize that this isn't the full truth is kinda disappointing. Used to be men were seen as brutal and not deserving of pity, so they developed defenses of their own. Now, those defenses are seen as proof of offense, and we're all fucked.

Best way to argue against Feminism is to let Feminists speak. Or make a movie, in this case.

I can't completely deny that's a factor. But I think more importantly it stems from the (stupid) idea that "Men want the sex, Women don't want the Sex".

If you are circumcised and you're okay with it, great. But do not tell other men that it's not a big deal and invalidate their concern for bodily autonomy.

This I think is largely a product of the portrayal of "men" in popular discourse as being an inherently privileged oppressor class. I think that plays a role.

I'm not a big fan either, but as a descriptor of ones generalized value on the sexual market place, I don't think it's derogatory. Saying to a specific person that they are not, on the other hand, is. Talking about poverty isn't derogatory, but calling someone poor for no good reason, even if accurate, is a dick move

I think it could be argued that the modern mindset differs in some respects quite heavily from the historic one.

In this case it's not even really a law, but how society views IPV which then influences how the laws are read and used.

You can recognize something as bad without "blaming" anyone.

But that doesn't mean we can't see something for what it is (in this example, hatred - specifically self-hatred - is rarely productive) and try to address it.

It's also why we need to be really careful with UBI, Especially when it comes to kids.

For example, if you have 1 child, you get, say, 20% of the UBI as "child support"(plus your own UBI), if you have two you get 15% each (total 30%, so only 10% extra for the second), etc. Or something like that, it's not like I have the actual solution.

Hmm, maybe something like weaponized oppression? With a dash of solipsism? An extreme crystalisation of the empathy gap?

Linguistically, men were kind of erased centuries ago. Erased by being generalized. It's not as obvious in English, where terms aren't naturally gendered. However, let's take German names for professions as an example. Traditionally, the terms used for professions are according to the gender that traditionally performed it. In most cases, that's male. However, they could absolutely be used gender-neutrally, "Krankenschwester" (Sister of the Sick, eg nurse) is something that's constructed from a …

It's not that easy. In fact, your statement that "You have never had the right" is decidedly untrue. Since /u/KaiserEspinoza mentioned somewhere other than England, I'm going to assume the states (likely), where it was absolutely traditionally a right americans had. Now, that does not mean it's a good idea to resist arrest, even if you are innocent, even just for the likelyhood of getting injured or killed. But historically, having the right to resist arrest if you are sure you are innocent is s…

I'm not completely clear on my own thoughts when it comes to this. But I think a lot of it comes down to risk taking. Society requires a certain amount of risk to be taken. How much you personally risk depends a lot on how much of a threat you perceive and how much you value yourself compared to what you can do. If men all judged risks the same as the average woman, our society would lack in these regions where risk-taking is required. I am talking about both physical risk (underwater welding, l…

Right. Mostly it's a bit of a cynical realization I had recently. I call it empathy overflow. If men were allowed to begrudge violence commited against them at the same degree as women do, society would stop functioning. Men are 9 times as likely to be the victim of violence. If men's reactions were scaled according to threat at the same rate as women's they would be paralized in fear.

Part of it is also the duplicity. So much "anti-toxic-masculinity" discourse tells you to "speak up" when one of your friends is objectifying (meaning a raunchy joke like OP) a woman.

No. But I do think it would be fair if men had the same span to decide whether they want to take that responsibility or not (so generally first trimester).

One thing you might want to keep in mind (or maybe not): that's the diligence they show when a man is doing the kidnapping.

Non-consensual and consensual sex are still both subcategories of sex. BTW, in no way am I arguing that rape is right, or whatever. I was making a minor point of the fact that, while it is often used onesidedly, calling rape sex isn't wrong, if inaccurate. It's like squares and rectangles.

It's not even just the gender. One parent is just worse than two, simply for relationship dynamics (e. g. if you fight with one, you still have someone else to confide in). Other people can help out (teachers, relatives, etc.), but it's still most optimal if you have both poles of the relationship living with you. Exposure to members of both sexes is still really important, of course. But two gay dads is still loads better than a single father, all other things being equal.

Generally, yes. And we should address it from a gender neutral perspective. But that doesn't deny the fact that men are incarcerated at massively higher rates than women, even if corrected for criminality rates. So it would be a problem whose solution mostly benefits men. What exactly that solution looks like is a tough question, of course. Definitely more psychological support, both for the incarcerated and everyone else. A recognition of the problem would be a good start.

I'm not 100% sure about the exact numbers, but I read about 50% of UK prison inmates have a history with TBI (Traumatic brain injury).

You can absolutely be in need, and beg and guilt trip. In fact, that's basically expected. Of course, liers also exist. Some people really dislike begging, no matter the circumstances.

Question is, do you (general you) have gender dysphoria or sex dysphoria? If gender dysphoria is not a medical condition, then it's just people who want to break out of restrictive gender roles, which is A OK with me, but you're (once again general you) not helping that by somehow medicalizing the situation. Because that, in my opinion, just reinforces the idea that if you don't have gender dysphoria you're obliged to behave according to gender roles, therefore reinforcing gender roles. The idea…

I would actually agree with the sentiment that women tend to be more emotional (just a tendency, not a rule), but one disadvantage of emotions is that it's harder to look at things from a different emotional perspective than a different cognitive perspective.

I've felt for a long time that the transition from talking about transsexuality to transgenderism is honestly kinda fucked up. If we say gender is how society expects people of a specific sex to behave, transgender individuals don't make sense. We all want to be the way we are. Noone is naturally gendered in the first place. I'd rather we dissolve gender as a whole and just accept that people tend(not as a rule but as a tendency) to act differently and have different desires based on the sex the…

That only really works if see only voting blocks, not people. Men who have gone through military service are likely to think "I've gone through this, why shouldn't other people like me go through it".

According to the PHD thesis I read on this (about the only work I could find, let me know if you care enough for me to dig it up), It would be interesting to see their methodology. social support for the role makes basically no difference (the correlation coefficient in the mult regression was 0.03 and obviously wasn't statistically significant). Especially how exactly they measured social support. If it's surveys, these issues can be heavily biased through questions.

Keep in mind that's correlation not causation. They mentioned that "egalitarian values" could lessen depressive symptoms for the mothers but not the men. "egalitarian" values rarely actually equalize the expectations on men. Fathers that lose their job/become a SAHP will be told, mostly by themselves but likely also their surroundings, that they have failed their family. Which can cause depression. That's my take, anyways.

It's not just a gotcha, either. I think many of the behaviors called out as "toxic masculinity" stem from a desire to prove themselves and their worth/strength, because that's what they believe men have to do to be a man. Women don't really have to prove they are women, it used to be giving birth was that proof, but that was, rightfully, abandoned as a litmus test. Now we need to do the same for men.

If toxic masculinity exists, then toxic femininity exists as well. But that never gets talked about. It does get talked about, but it's called internalized misogyny.

Yes, and so do girls. In fact, women tend to be more attracted to older people than men. They also start puberty earlier. If anything, the other way around would make more sense (teachers' relationships with boys seen as more egregious). That was a hard if, though. Better option is still a total "no".

You're probably right that many kids that age (15-18) would be interested in their attractive teachers sexually. It's probably correct, however, not to allow this due to the high potential of abuse. Ironically, the double standard where boys plus teacher is seen as less problematic than girl plus teacher is also showing misogyny (in addition to misandry). We can't accept girls wanting to have sex with their teachers, because we know better than them. For boys it's mostly: who cares?

It used to be that made some sense, because there was one sacrifice expected of women, that of childbirth. Which used to be incredibly dangerous. Now, childbirth cannot be expected of women (though many still have children ofc), and it's also magnitudes less dangerous.

Because the dictionary calls feminism the "theory of [...] equality of the sexes." It would go a long way to convince people feminism is that, and not "activism on behalf of women", as the second definition goes. A common argument against the MRM is, "feminism already does that". I see traces of it in popular feminism, but academic feminism in my experience has been mostly a self-echoing shit show.

I wouldn't want to be painted by the worst examples of men, so I won't paint all women by their worst examples. I am aware however, that there exists an imbalance in how individual mens and women's action are perceived, where displaying a woman being choked on a poster becomes "they're saying women should be choked/normalizing violence against women", and a man misbehaving becomes "all men are pigs". But it's still counterproductive, imo, to paint all women with the same brush.

If we forget the toxicity of the term in the first place, that would absolutely be toxic masculinity, if people who use that term have any interest in truly applying it. I was once told (in a comment on reddit) that women's equivalent to toxic masculinity is internalized misogyny.

Probably, among other reasons, due to the fact that there was much less sexual selective pressure on women (they would often get a mate whether they wanted to or not) than on men. Also, evolutionarily speaking, a really smart guy might have hundreds of children, a woman with 15 is already a lot.

Being frustrated that society doesn't reward you for the work you are told you need to do is not the same as feeling "entitled" to a specific woman. Not that those people do not also exist, but the distinction exists.

It makes sense, and it is partly what's happening here. Women are seen as too fragile to handle the same punishment as men. Which is technically an insult, but still results in lower sentences. Additionally the women are wonderful effect makes people assume better motives on part of women and a better outlook on improvement (recidivism).

Nah, that's not the problem. Your comment makes me think it's you who has a problem. Men can be just as overprotective and hypocritical towards women as women themselves. Could have just as well been a man, who would never dare complain about women's only weightlifting. Or women's only anything.

I do think these statements can be misused, but they don't have to be. This person was most likely afflicted, and that's fine to recognise. If her mental disturbance caused this, she should be committed forcefully until she can be cured(or stay committed). People most likely do not understand what could bring someone to do this. I'm against toxic femininity as a concept, just like I'm against toxic masculinity. Look at the case, not the gender.

It's not fake facts most often, it's just orphaned statistics.

It is mentioned though that in Esmeraldas case, it was her initiating and men reciprocating. With Tarzan it was, at least according to the information we have, purely from the side of the women.

I think the point of your last paragraph was the one I wanted to make as well. Caring comes in many forms, and "reading" someone doesn't necessarily mean you actually "empathise" with them, as in, you feel their pain and want to stop it. But it doesn't not mean that either.

Essencially, Yes. While Men were disposable in a sense for example during the war for a long time, that was really a small part, and a necessity too. It was never possible to have truly "disposable" men, since men are still needed for day-to-day life during most of humanities history. It's really modern society, which in the west has no actual deficiency in anything(Food, warmth, medicine, etc.) where we can create a class of people (Men) as risk-bound and disposable as we are.

There's other cases too, though. For Instance, here in Switzerland(That's why mandatory military service) it took until 1976 for women to be able to vote everywhere.
