I don't know. Do you have any idea?

Often, some of them just pull that data straight from Reddit itself :D

I'd say MRAs represent a very small minority. Feminists are mostly women, and MRAs are mostly men, so we could easily substitute them with their respective genders. But even if that distinction isn't entirely accurate, I'd argue that men in general don't seem to cooperate as well as women do. As a result, any MRA movement would likely be less effective than the feminist movement, I suppose

I don't know — how would we even measure that? But I wouldn't be surprised if it's true, considering that men don't seem to be very active in activism these days.

The whole notion of blaming an entire group simply because a minority — or even a majority — of its members commit certain crimes is deeply unjust. Yet, for some reason, this logic has never been consistently applied to other areas, such as race or ethnicity, when it comes to crime. It seems that being racist is widely considered far less acceptable than being misandrist.

Thanks! But this won’t work with them, since they operate on an emotional level rather than a factual one. Just think of the so-called “rape academy” that was widely shared across the internet — according to their claims, 62 million men visited it. They don’t care whether the real number is 0.00001%, 1%, or 100%. Their conclusions don’t follow from the data anyway.

Although men, historically and cross-culturally, are the dominant sex, they possess remarkably weaker in-group bias than do women. In four experiments, we found this sex difference persisted using both implicit and explicit measures, despite using a gender attitude IAT that was unconfounded with gender stereotypes. Averaging IAT effect sizes for men and women across four experiments revealed ds 0.28 and 1.27, respectively. (The comparable effect sizes using self-reports were -0.67 and 0.06, resp…

Thank you for your understanding. I, too, believe that expecting an ordinary person to become a hero is asking too much. There is actually something unhealthy about making such a demand — especially when the sacrifice won't change anything in the end. There may be a certain beauty in fighting the system even when you know you're going to lose, but politically speaking, it makes zero sense. Take Navalny, for example — the most prominent opposition leader to Putin. He was a hero in many ways. He f…

Men do show in-group bias. It's simply that the bias observed in women is 4.5 times stronger.

Unfortunately, for most feminists, it's only oppression when it benefits them. When it doesn't, they don't care — even if addressing it would contribute to overall equality and erase some gender stereotypes.

That's why military service roles should be defined by individual characteristics, not gender

We can think of pregnancy as a potential way out of military duty, but for that to be even somewhat fair, it should apply only to women who actually become pregnant. It cannot be an automatic exemption: “Oh, you have a chance of getting pregnant, so here you go — you don’t need to serve.” That’s an absurd excuse. As for the rest, the arguments are equally weak. It’s true that women on average do more housework, but men tend to do more paid work in relationships, so there’s a balance, so what? Do…

Thank you for your kind words! I'm sorry about the ongoing situation too and hope it ends soon. Russia has brought a lot of unnecessary suffering to Ukraine. Unfortunately, the current regime doesn't give many options for protesting all that madness — unless you're willing to risk ending up in jail for nothing, since one person's sacrifice won't change anything. So as an average Russian citizen, you end up in a pretty helpless position.

Ukraine is in a much worse situation. I’m from Russia, and we don’t have an ongoing mobilization like they do in Ukraine. I mean, technically we do have mobilization in place on paper — legally, the government could activate it at any moment — but we haven’t actually had one since 2022. Still, there’s been a lot of talk about whether it might happen this year, or after this election, or after that one, and so on.

That’s not actually a fact, though — not even in biology. The Bateman principle you mentioned is widely criticized today. It’s not a hard rule; you can read all about the criticisms on Wikipedia. Issues like sampling biases, mathematical errors, and selective presentation of data have been identified in the original 1948 paper, among other problems. So when you present it as fact, that’s simply incorrect. It isn’t a settled principle — it’s been so thoroughly challenged that many biologists no l…

Oh yes, they absolutely do that, unfortunately. "I take pills, don't worry, no need for protection!" — but then boom, and you have a child. That said, this usually happens when she wants to stay together and he's somewhat hesitant, so it's just a way for a woman to trap a potential husband. It makes little sense when you're apart, unless you're a millionaire and she's set to receive a hefty sum in alimony. I've always found this asymmetry somewhat unjust: a couple agrees to have an abortion in c…

So you broke up, but she decided to carry your child anyway? Why? Why would she do that? Is she pro-life? As for your question — have you been portrayed that way? If so, it's a common tactic to manipulate you into believing the child is yours. Nothing more, usually.

I'm not sure that "gold digger" is an equivalent, though. I would say the equivalent would be "woman-child," but no one uses that at all. Society tends to punish women less for the same behavior, I believe, because of gender stereotypes. For instance, it's considered more acceptable for a woman to live with her parents longer than for a man, because, well, he's seen as a loser regardless of circumstances — he has to be a provider after all. It's ironic that even feminist women often think this w…

I actually think it’s for the better: maybe this could unite men to push back, which, in turn, would draw more attention to the more subtle and underrecognized forms of sexism against men. Without feminists, a group like that likely wouldn’t have existed in the first place. But the more radical feminists become, the more likely men are to see their behavior as absurd — to laugh, point out their double standards, and inevitably fight sexism against themselves.

There have been more abortions in the last 40 years, then there have been deaths FROM WAR, over the course of ALL OF RECORDED HUMAN HISTORY. Oh, my, I didn't know that it was THAT high.

Just to add my two cents (which is, ironically, roughly the size of the adjusted gender pay gap in the US): in my opinion, people focus too much on the money side of things. The reality is that people who earn more usually do so because their jobs are harder, often riskier, and lead to more injuries — categories in which men are overrepresented too, by the way. These jobs are also in high demand simply because fewer people are willing to do them. So the higher compensation generally comes with h…

I agree with some of your examples of toxic masculinity. Gender roles undoubtedly harm both men and women, and there are countless instances of toxic femininity that feminists tend to overlook — yet these would be equally worth discussing, both to inform women about their existence and to reduce the unnecessary antagonism between men and women. As for the patriarchy, I find the situation somewhat amusing: it's impossible to simultaneously reduce this concept to "those in power" — as is often don…

I don't know about this specific case, but it's no different from how other industries work. If an accusation surfaces in the film industry, the actor will most likely be dropped — remember Johnny Depp. The video game industry is no exception: remember Chris Avellone, one of the co-creators of Fallout 2. It's always the same pattern: it's safer to sacrifice one person than to risk the entire reputation of the company. The same goes for political parties. There are rare exceptions, like with the …

We had the same situation in Russia about 15–20 years ago. We had basically no male teachers. It's very likely still the same today, but I've been out of school for so long that I can't really say for sure. Boys were also asked to put chairs up at the end of classes because, I believe, we were supposed to be stronger — despite the fact that the average girl was larger than the average boy at that age due to the growth spurt difference, lmao.

They just blame ABSOLUTELY everything that men do, EVEN the men who suffer and succumb to their mental illnesses, they just find a way to make it about WOMEN. Men can’t be seen as victims of anything, including of their own suicide anymore and it breaks my heart. Now think about how this kind of thinking supports the patriarchy and the idea that men must be strong, never be victims, and never show weakness. For some reason, they don't seem to notice that.

I am open to any definition, provided it is both falsifiable and verifiable. Unfortunately, I have yet to encounter such a definition from the feminists I have spoken with. While one could argue that the same applies to concepts like democracy or capitalism, those concepts are significantly easier to quantify and falsify

I once had a discussion with a woman who said that feminism is about rights, not duties. She argued that since conscription is a duty and not a right, it doesn't matter if only men are drafted. I'm not joking: a world where men are burdened with duties and women are free of them wouldn't be a problem for her. It's a very warped perspective, but that's exactly how some of them — so-called elitist feminists — see it.

Pretty funny to notice that people in the comments of that video state something like this: No. 62 million. Until that number is zero and every man in the epstein files has been executed, I am NOT moved by that statistic. In fact, those are amateur numbers. It tells me that despite actively torturing women, men still feel entitled to being loved by women. GET OUT OF HERE WITH THAT BS. You are apologists for the disgusting, bestial behaviour of men. They really don't care about whether these numb…

And it’s fine to overreact in situations like that. What’s not okay is to justify one side and shift the blame onto the other by using unrelated statistics. If it’s now considered normal to justify any kind of disgusting behavior by citing unrelated statistics about a certain gender suffering more, then I could justify pretty much anything. But it always goes like this: we suffer more, so we can do X, Y, Z, and you cannot. Hitler did the same.

Sick weirdos will always find a way to blame the other side, because of some unfalsifiable-unquantifiable-something-something-patriarchy. And here's a bunch of rape statistics that have nothing to do with the ongoing discussion or incident, so we can do whatever we want and justify whatever we need to, even if it's the woman who's clearly overreacting (and, therefore, also being at least as wrong) and calling men slurs

I believe they're in middle school, so they basically corrected her, no? Then laughing is just a joke or a stress reaction, I guess.

It's such a pleasure to see an academic philosopher like Benatar untangle these unbased premises that many (not all) feminists tend to accept as a default. It seems obvious that even if philosophers are so quick to misinterpret arguments, trivialize them, avoid engaging with them, and instead just repeat learned phrases like "patriarchy" like a Pavlov's dog, I'm expecting too much from random online conversations with feminists. If philosophers can't do that without ideological bias, then averag…
