1	How to Engage Conservative Family Members in Productive Political Discussions: A Comprehensive Guide The leftist talking to the conservative would get banned or the conservative talking to the leftist would? Either way I agree this does happen. I'd just like to see more people at least try and listen to the other side rather than fall back on defensive talking points. Maybe I'm overly optimistic lol!	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	23/02/25 06:14 PM
1	How to Engage Conservative Family Members in Productive Political Discussions: A Comprehensive Guide This is a nice guide. If more people on the left engaged with conservatives like this I think that would calm things down tremendously. I am curious though, what would you think if a conservative took this same approach with you regarding their values?	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	23/02/25 02:23 PM
2	Traditional masculinity shouldn’t be something men strive for Have you ever heard of the book King Warrior Magician Lover? It's about masculine archtypes in Jungian psychology. It's one of my favorite books. The way you talk about masculinity reminds me of it.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	26/01/25 07:50 PM
1	"It's not just men that traffick. Women do this to other women as well and men are also trafficked." Wow, thank you for sharing all this information. That is a higher number of women traffickers that I would have guessed. Also nice to point out the forced labor aspect. Talking with you and seeing this PDF does help remind me that there are lots of good people out there genuinely fighting human trafficking. There's a loud minority of feminists and other ideologues who "care" about trafficking because it gives them a righteous outlet for their hatred of men. The same people would probably never c…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	29/12/24 08:55 PM
2	"It's not just men that traffick. Women do this to other women as well and men are also trafficked." I really respect your perspective. You seem to have a nuanced view and can see a lot of factors making major impacts. Honestly I feel like I get overly hostile when topics like this come up cause I'm so used to the other person being single minded and driving in on something like bioessentialism (which I agree is gross and usually means they have some deep biases). To be fair I don't actually know a lot about human trafficking beyond that talking about it brings the worst out in a lot of women I…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	29/12/24 04:17 AM
3	"It's not just men that traffick. Women do this to other women as well and men are also trafficked." I agree that should always be the take away: Men and women are both equally flawed, and equally vulnerable.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/12/24 10:06 PM
5	"It's not just men that traffick. Women do this to other women as well and men are also trafficked." I agree with you that it's wrong to blame victims of abusive relationships for choosing their abuser. However, from my own experience, there is a very strong connection between people having unresolved trauma, and them picking partners that are abusive. Again, I don't think it's fair to blame the victim with unresolved trauma for what happens to them at the hands of their abuser. However, once kids enter the picture it's also not fair for the parent with unresolved trauma to unload all the accou…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/12/24 09:58 PM
3	"It's not just men that traffick. Women do this to other women as well and men are also trafficked." Oh I'm sure it's under reported. Even when women get caught engaging in trafficking they will try and act like they were helpless victims. I'm pretty sure that's what Ghislaine Maxwell did. I'm just leery of relying on the statistics being even. If it where to turn out that the number of men and boys trafficked is actually much lower, and that most traffickers are in fact men, that doesn't mean that men are inherently sex trafficking monsters and women are helpless harmless victims. A place this…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/12/24 09:27 PM
3	"It's not just men that traffick. Women do this to other women as well and men are also trafficked." Sorry, I wasn't very clear with my post. I'll try to be more coherent. I feel it's relevant to trafficking cause the common refrain I hear from some feminists after you force them to acknowledge men and boys are trafficked and women can be traffickers goes like this: "Well SOME men and boys may be trafficked, and SOME women may be traffickers, but MOST trafficking victims are women and girls, and MOST traffickers are men." Essentially implying that if men do most of the hurting and women get hur…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/12/24 07:58 PM
8	"It's not just men that traffick. Women do this to other women as well and men are also trafficked." Every man who becomes a trafficker had a mother that failed him, just like every women who becomes a trafficker had a father that failed her. Some feminists love to despair at being able to raise good children when the men in their lives are abusive. I feel like if they can't choose good men to be around that's their problem, and it doesn't give then the right to condemn their kids to being abused or becoming abusers. Human trafficking is a human issue. Trying to gender it is simple not true. Th…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/12/24 02:39 PM
2	Joe Rogan Being a Female Pedo Apologist You're right. I wonder if some people get confused about the "hot" thing because they don't understand the difference between "abuse" fantasies and actual abuse. Somebody else in this discussion pointed out that girls can fantasies about their attractive male teachers. That's a fantasy about being sexual (which I think is a normal human thing, look at 50 Shades of Gray lol), not a fantasy of actually being abused. As I said, actual sexual abuse is about hurting the victim using sex as a weapon. …	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	03/12/24 06:23 PM
6	Joe Rogan Being a Female Pedo Apologist In Rogan’s defense, he is a comedian, and I feel like during the first part of the clip he’s trying to be funny. However, after 1:30 he seems to get serious. Here’s the quote for reference: I just don’t think it’s the same. I don’t think it’s good. Okay? I definitely think she should be fired, she probably should face jail time or something like that for fucking 14 year olds. Obviously she’s a crazy person, but I don’t think it’s the same crime. I think it’s a different crime. I think that men h…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	02/12/24 10:34 PM
3	Homophobic Misandry? Thank you for clarifying. Also thanks for providing links. That was going to be my next questions lol! I appreciate your thoroughness.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/10/24 08:20 PM
6	Homophobic Misandry? Homosexual men are the only sexuality that prefers men over everything else. They are also the only sexuality that is repulsed by female sex characteristics. Literally every other sexuality likes women and often prefers them. Just curious, are you saying that homosexual men are the only male sexuality that prefers men, or are you implying that heterosexual women also feel some sort of attraction to women? No judgement either way. I just wanted a better understanding of your perspective.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/10/24 06:51 PM
