It is nothing more than the most common manifestation of the lay justifications hate groups use. Patriarchy is to men and feminism, exactly the same as the Conspiracy was to Jews and Naziism, as Genetic Destiny was to minorities and the Klan. Look up the New Sokal Hoax one day. Liberal pranksters tried to get "Man" Kampf rebranded as feminist literature, where the only thing they changed was the demographic of which universally hated group conspired to oppress the innocent. Essentially, just swa…

We see it happening in cinema and videogames frequently (and the "toxic manosphere" backlash for daring to not support creators who overtly hate you), but this is more of an "opt-in oppression" by male liberal feminist allies who volunteered to be mistreated at a Sophie Stratt performance, knowing what they were signing up for. That said, it'd actually be interesting to see men stand up for themselves like that. Not just to see a small crowd of the audience immediately leave, but an equal number…

During performances on Monday in Ghent and at Best Kept Secret last month, she asked “all white men to step back” and make room for women, queer people, and people of color in the mosh pit. The hotline received “many hundreds of complaints,” the spokesperson said. “We understand that, but at this moment we do not see enough grounds to believe that there was discrimination based on skin color or gender.” Although the statement may be perceived as polarizing or offensive, in this context it must b…

If you consider the men's rights movement to have started in the 1920s-30s, then: We've gotten judges to stop issuing "Broken Heart Balm" settlements to random women who didn't even know the accused, but felt entitled to his military benefits and discharge payments.

Yeah no, we're just not willfully bind to men's issues. Was talking to a lovely young third-world woman about how oppressed she is, how she's "allowed to" go to school and then college to seek a technical degree but nobody "expects" her to be as good as men at math and science even though they rarely go to college even when they do finish school (or in other words, she has educational opportunities and privileges denied to men.)

I feel like nobody remembers the 90/10 rule. For a first kiss, the guy traditionally does 90% of the work. Establish proper mood, initiate intimate contact, bring mouth closer, and then wait. The other ten percent is "she leans in." Active participation. That's fucking it. If she leans in to finish the kiss, she's consenting. Technically speaking, she's the only one consenting (not that that bothers feminists) and initiating the kiss, you merely positioned yourself in a way to make it highly con…

While another member interviewed by the Post thought that the allegations were unfair — “In general, female-led businesses are under more of a microscope — especially a place that is preaching inclusivity” That's called "being held to your own standards", and is feminist kryptonite.

The simple answer is that it never meant equality. Even the Seneca Falls Convention had two meetings, only one of which we ever hear about in history books. The first was for women only, and then there was one the next day where selected men (mostly black men advocating for racial equality who were deemed useful for the women's cause, even though the majority of suffragettes were vehemently opposed to racial equality) were allowed to have a voice, provided that that voice was in unanimous agreem…

Discrimination doesn't have to "hurt" anyone in a visceral, measurable way to still be discrimination. By the same token, you don't see a problem with white only Ubers, right? Or straight only Ubers? Or male driver only Ubers, for people who don't trust females behind the wheel? If you wanna open up the door for discrimination to come in, open it up for all forms of discrimination. No?

Uh, Margaret Sanger. She literally started Planned Parenthood as a way to deceive black mothers into murdering their children (by first bribing or blackmailing members of the clergy, who would then inform their naive parishioners that abortion was a kindness and therefore encouraged by God), with a plan to "cull the undesired population to below 10%." And never forget that Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton split the early suffrage movement in twain over an internecine doctrine dispute.…

I got suspended for threatening to kill a female classmate once. Well, not exactly. What happened is she threatened to shoot me in front of the entire class, and I, being a scholastic child of excellent vocabulary, said "nuh uh, you." She wasn't punished, of course.

"Men are afraid of a little embarrassment when they meet real women for the first time. I live in permanent terror of you showing up to the date with your 98 rapist buddies who help carve out my delicate uterine lining and use it to waterproof your yacht. Our catfishing fears are not the same." - feminist articles if that headline ever happened, even once.

And I'll bet you a month's pay that when you started working with men only, you received far less hatred.

You also have to remember that this was in the early years of the internet, where policymakers (and indeed, most people in general) had no clue what this world wide web thing was, and the only way to express the issue was in terms they already understood, with real world analogs to services the internet digitized. As an example, you couldn't curse on broadcast radio or television during the daytime, that was obscene and offensive. Either have an afterhours special, or broadcast on a different, p…

It is admittedly more convoluted than I summarized it as (as all laws are, the original case was whether libel shared online was more similar to a newspaper or a bookstore), but the relevant argument that led to the formation of the section of law was: The court concluded that Prodigy [a forum host] was a publisher of the alleged libel because it controlled the content of its message boards through an "automatic software screening program" and "Board Leaders" who removed messages that violated P…

The problem you're going to run into is: Half of people believe empathy is zero sum, and are biologically and sociologically predisposed to ration out the majority to women. They never question it, they just care about women, and when they run out of care, they shrug at the men left over. The other half understand what empathy is, and typically acknowledge that nobody "deserves" your empathy. Just like other buzzwordified nonsense, which ultimately boils down to demands that people be forced to …

Really, everyone has a pithy explanation or comparison, but it comes down to one very simple thing. Conditioning. Feminism, by it's nature, cannot have nuance and shades of gray. Every time it tries, it fractures into splinter movements. All men are privileged, wait what about trans men, aren't they victims, bam, Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminists are born. This goes all the way back to before the roots of feminism, in suffragette activism, which was split between those like Susan B Anthony wh…

Men have wider variance, whereas schools cater to the median. By design, this means that the majority of men are excluded from the education system. Both the smart ones, and the dumb ones. I was the "smart kid" in my group (and plenty dumb in other things), and there was only one time in my early years that it was ever valued.

You make it seem like feminist slop is easy to filter out.

The thing that feminism falsely relies on is the ethos of sacrificial altruism. Specifically, you're not supposed to care about issues that affect you, as a man. To do so is selfish, self-centered, and even hatred towards women. While I'm speaking generally, in particular for this comic it strongly applies.

You're doing precisely the false equivalency Anatole France warned about when he said "The law, in its majestic equality, forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal their bread." Men can be whores, too. You even acknowledge that it's a matter of "if given the chance", tacitly recognizing that there's no inherent or autonomous value to it for men, it is something they have to opt into at some personal cost.

This is always going to be the issue going forward until one of three things change: A) "Emotionally investing" in men becomes a trend, and companies start chasing that trend. This is the most likely one, and we've seen a few stabs at it, but the problem is that it's so alien to most, that the best attempts we've seen so far are Gillette's "Men Be Better" tonedeaf bullshit and the occasional veteran-supporti…

https://www.reddit.com/r/MensLib/wiki/meta/profeminist We use many of the tools created by feminism to discuss and address men's issues. We consider ourselves allies to the women's issues movement, of which feminism is a primary mover. We are not an anti-feminist movement. Essentially, it's the gender equivalent of a civil rights movement allying with the Klan. I haven't cared enough since the late 2000s to check in on them, but last I saw their message was "look at how trampling and ignoring me…

Cart before the horse. A woman is not going to rise to the level of presidential candidate, without participating in all the "anything you can do, I can do better" bullshit necessary for her to rise to that level. Every raise, every promotion, every consideration for a better position, every opportunity to grow in her political career, stems in at least small part from her sex being a decisive factor. Imagine if you will, that to become president you have to roll ten dice simultaneously and have…

Once bitten, twice shy. Except it's a lot of "onces" that go into becoming shy, because we're men. We WANT to pair bond, start a family, raise kids, all that jazz, and so we keep touching that hot surface to see if it's cooled down yet. In my case, I've had a girl break my jaw because of a heated argument, a girl rape me in my sleep (and her friends flip it around to me being the abuser for not reciprocating her feelings), three or four girls use me for my money (this has been going on in some f…

It's not a legal inequality. I'm not allowed to display my sexual organs in public either. Not even in a non-sexual context: if I'm watering a tree and a female or underage neighbor walks by, I'm going on a criminal registry. And inevitably, women will then insist that breasts aren't sexual organs.

Who's complaining about women being too cautious? If anything, it'd be nice if they were more cautious, with the caveat of "when it makes sense to be."

Why do people always jump to "male erections = female orgasms" in this argument? The female analog to getting an erection is getting wet. Can be triggered involuntarily from sexual stimulation, waking up from an intense dream, or when the plane vibrates just right. And saying that every time a woman gets wet she's consenting to sex is FAR more offensive (and therefore much more likely to trigger consideration and conversation about the assumption of erections equaling consent.)

To be fair... If I'm accused of murdering all 50 people in my neighborhood, and the evidence points to me only killing one of them...

It's fun ignoring the article and just reading the comments. Girls could be adequate in the military if we could just figure out how to protect them from men.

It matters because infantilizing them in language leads to infantilizing them in thought. WHOOSH.

I knew that I had read both of those points before (suffragette pin, and the horse being punished), but couldn't find a quick source for either, so I left 'em out just to be safe. It's worth noting that the horse's political punishment wasn't much of a punishment (in fact, I like to think it was a second political statement that whooshed over suffragettes' heads) - he became a literal stud.

No, not-guilty does not mean innocent anymore than guilty means guilty. [sic] This irritates the everloving fucking shit out of me. Firstly, all accusations that are provably not true are by default false, there's no gray area in a binary. Whether they were maliciously and intentionally false is the technicality you were looking for, which indeed does need a separate proceeding to determine if guilt exists. But more than that, the goddamn cliche you spouted: You really have no grounds to stand o…

It's a concession that feminism (and feminism-lite defenders) see the world as an endless battle between men and women, and refuse to shake hands across the aisle as a result.

I'd have to disagree with your definition of MRA: there are men's advocates who are not MRAs. Either because they haven't been exposed to the movement, or because they have and don't wish for the association.

I've always understood why people commit crime. I don't necessarily condone it, but I understand it. What I've never understood is people who flagrantly commit crime and then brag about it. That cements your ass to the iron bars. Hosting an image you stole by itself? You can make claims of Fair Use, or at least innocent intent, and pretty much escape punishment. The hardest thing to get is mens rea, the criminal mind, the proof of intent. Hosting an image you stole while bragging about the lack …

It's not very egalitarian at all, other than on the surface level of "give a gift, get a gift." Giri choco (literally "obligation chocolates") can be anything from a candy bar to a small plastic bag of baking cocoa, given to male colleagues simply so that they'll be obligated to remember you on White Day.

Came here with the same section in my clipboard. "And feminism is about equality. And when we talk about having equality… Women are disproportionately affected by lack of education, lack of access to health care, poverty, no paid family leave," Remember, the feminist definition of "disproportionately women" is "any women at all." The right proportion for women is "zero out of all", anything else is disproportionate.

Man, talk about misleading. For a black male, 28% reply rate is a golden yellow, 17% is a deep red. For a black female, 40% reply rate is golden yellow, 32% is a deep red. At a glance, you'd assume that black females have it almost as bad as black men, they're both mostly red with smatterings of yellow. Of course, mostly red for the women is 31-37%, compared to 17-25% for the men. That's just one race. If you compare black women to white men, their pink is our dark green. The absolute worst repl…

Frankly, only women can even hope to make that statement (and it's still more false than true even then.) If I were a feminist, this is where I'd smugly proclaim "those who have privilege are often blind to it." It's why MRAs mockingly add the missing corollary to that statement: ... and 1 in 1 men worldwide will experience physical or sexual violence in their lifetime. Won't somebody think of the women? It's one of those anti-feminist on the face of it statements that they make. Anyone with a b…

Apples and oranges. If raping females were a slap on the wrist crime, I suspect the number of unscrupulous men in the world would rise. Simple statistics, part of the reason having punishments for violating the law is deterrence, there are some people out there who would rape for sexual gratification if they knew that there would be no repercussions for it if they were caught. To assume that they'd not contribute meaningful numbers if their crime of choice was made legal is to assume that the la…

Well, I was still simplifying a bit, but chevalier comes from the same root word (chevalier, "chivalrous man"), which is caballus, or the Latin poetic word for "horse" (the general usage word for horse being equus, from which we get equestrian, a more casual / civilian horse rider.) Poetry and warfare were intricately linked during those times, so chivalry is essentially "horse [warfare] conduct" and chevalier is by extension "man of horse [warfare] conduct." I.E, knight.

Well, actually it was two separate codes of conduct. Expressed simply, "chivalry" was a code of (military) etiquette for interacting with men, and "gallantry" was a code of (social) etiquette for interacting with women.

They can't (legally) vote, drink, have sex, drive, smoke, run for office, make their own informed medical decisions, practice most forms of gainful employment, utilize self-determination to decide how to spend their own time, own their own property, exercise marriage rights, have bodily autonomy (especially in terms of modification, such as tattoos or piercings)... compared to adults, …

No. No. Fucking no. CHS is only ever called a feminist by other feminists when she's needed to defend the movement from criticism. Every other time she speaks, she's at best ostracized and at worst silenced. It is all fine and dandy for CHS to engage in the uphill battle of using criticism to try and reclaim the label. It is not okay for feminists to run downhill to retreat behind her, hide from criticism, and use the label to try and reclaim her when convenient.

As one prolifer to another hypothetical prolifer, that's called won't, not can't, as in you had and made a fucking choice.

Easy way to remember it, transx is a self descriptor, and transpeople don't self-identify as the wrong gender, so if you dropped the trans, the x you're left with is their gender identity, with the trans in front to indicate they started out life identified as the other. I.E, a transman is a person who chooses to identify as a man, but was born identified as a woman. You can also cheat by treating "trans" as shorthand for "transitioned to", i.e transwoman = transitioned to woman.

So... men It's kind of one of the points of the MRM that we shouldn't have to be part of another group to receive fundamental empathy and compassion through the trickle-down effect. We shouldn't have to co-opt the sympathy of another group in order to receive any sympathy for ourselves. What do those aforementioned groups of men have that make them more human than the rest? I mean, would anyone be patting themselves on the back if this was a "Why you shouldn't say racist shit to a minority?" pos…

There's something to be said for clarity, and being able to deliver a message unambiguously, and something to be said for utilizing that ambiguity to turn yourself into a monster in the mirror. It's sort of a toss-up as to which is the more effective way to argue; some need exacting precision to form unbiased opinions, others need to have their bigotry held up to them from the other side of the aisle to realize their opinions are biased. That is to say, some need to be told a long list of why bi…

So Absorbing Man has just gotten done telling Thorette that he doesn't actually mind that she's a female superhero (quote, "who the hell cares?"), but that it irks him that she's a rule 63 of a popular, definitively male superhero (again, "get your own identity.") Her response is literally "Nyah nyah, you're gonna get beat by a GIIIIRL!" Who's supposed to be the egalitarian here, again? The guy who's only problem with a copycat is that she's a copycat, or the girl trying to shame a male for bein…

Then why are you downvoting, again? That's exactly the point he's trying to drive. If he didn't want it, he wouldn't get hard. If she didn't want it, she wouldn't get wet. One is actually said in earnest seriousness. The other, to the best of my knowledge, is never said, and is rightfully considered heinous and offensive. Putting the two side by side, where nobody can say (short of exposing their blatant hypocrisy) that the two are incomparable, forces people into a position where they either di…

And just to confirm, you are aware that cannibalism, while not illegal, is immoral and the sort of thing we don't tolerate on this campus, correct? Just wanted to make sure, we do live in a cannibal culture.

See, I look at it in terms of actual harm, not potential harm, when I put G before B in terms of oppression. I've seen people get jumped for being gay, I've never seen someone get jumped for being bi - although I have seen bi men get jumped for being gay, which leads to my next point: In a real sense, being bi includes being gay, just as it includes being straight. Both, at the same time. I feel that the overwhelming majority of oppression that bis face is because of the societal intolerance of …

I'd say TGBL, only because Bis have always had that working for them / working against them stereotype of being free-love and open-minded sexual beings. Society, by and large, accepts bi-dom, even as it tries to pretend that it's a phase that people grow out of. Although my dad (a weird old fart) used to say that if I came out gay, he wouldn't mind and he'd still love me, but if I came out bi, that's just plain greedy and he'd have to whoop my ass. So there's that, although I doubt many people h…

Next vacation I take, I'm gonna borrow this language to earn sympathy points. "It was terrible, I was driven from my home for two whole weeks, returning was unfeasable, and the courts did nothing!" "Didn't you go to Disney?" "That doesn't matter! I was technically rendered homeless by the hostile harassment I received from my boss!" "When she said you needed a vacation?" "Yes! I may have approached her about it first, but that doesn't give her the right to treat me like that!"

I like this contract, but problem is, I need an egalitarian contract rather than a gendered one. To wit, if the female party is allowed to specify the extent and limits of my primary orgasm (and what about multiorgasmic men?), I should also have the right to dictate her orgasm(s). If coming upon her feet can turn consensual sex into rape, then having the big O should also turn her into a rapist if I explicitly do not consent to that (I do consent to any number of small os not to exceed seven, ho…

I think people misread BS as "bullshit" instead of "benevolent sexism" and that's why you got downvoted so heavily. Alternatively, people haven't read the study showing that men who don't engage in benevolent sexism towards women are viewed as more misogynistic than those who regularly engage in benevolent sexism towards women.

Would it be wrong of me to teehee? Because this totally deserves a teehee. Take Advanced Feminism next semester and see if you can work in some new statistic on the number of preborn women who will be raped, as evidence of how the patriarchy and rape culture affects all women - even potential ones. Alternatively, see if you can woozle the numbers up to 1 in 1 women, or even better, more than 1 in 1 women. There are women who don't even exist getting raped under our cisheteroandrocentric society!

Moralistically, he should kick their asses hard enough that they never come back to mess with him again, and you should encourage him to get the training and discipline necessary to do so. Depending on the severity of the attacks they're inflicting upon him, shattered teeth and bones may be called for to deliver an important message - since the only framework bullies understand is hierarchical dominance, a pounding of prevention is worth an ounce of cure. Realistically though, if he doesn't want…

From the comments: Like you, LW, I’d cringe (and, years later, still sometimes do) when reading articles about feminist issues or George W Bush’s latest antics, imagining the debates I’d have with him, or imagining what my friends would think if they knew his opinions. I tried to stay with him and just avoid anything controversial, but politics and anti-racism and -sexism are really important to me, so after a while I just couldn’t do it and left. I also figured out after we split up and tried t…

Lemme boil it down some more for ya. man (sometimes man-): portmanteau prefix, meaning "something really innocuous that becomes suddenly bad when men do it because that really hurts women and totally is deserving of a campaign to stop evil men from harming victims. Example: 'Did you see Jake manliving the other day? Yeah, he wouldn't stop his misogynistic breathing, I can't believe he would be so insensitive to the plight of women struggling for the equal right to breathe in this country.' "

You left out manflu, male tears, what about teh menz, toxic masculinity, bropropriate, patriarchy, androcentricism, hegemonic masculinity, yes all men, Schrodinger's (always male) rapist, 10% of M&Ms, and a few other gems that were almost exclusively brought to us by feminism. But I mean, it's not like it's a really LONG list, or like any of those are FUNDAMENTAL tenets of feminism. Sheesh, where are people getting this silly notion that feminism is anti-male?

http://www-nrd.nhtsa.dot.gov/Pubs/809956.pdf Data showed that the percentage of fatally injured drivers who were drinking was highest for Native Americans (57%) and Hispanics or Latinos (47%). This trend appeared to be independent of such socioeconomic influences as education levels or the proportion of female-to-male drivers in the population of drivers killed. According to the data, we should be charging minorities (except Asians) considerably more than we charge whites for insurance. Statisti…

Your language betrays you even before your overt sentiment does. Surely, as the official female, you meant you feel for both the accuser and accused in this case? Or rather, the victim and the accuser? Hell, I'd even settle for alleged victim and accused. Not very clever little girl, tipping your biased hand like that.

Regarding your points 1-3 (and gravedigging a month old post) - those aren't necessarily faultlines within the MRM. I assume by faultline you mean a hyperbolic large divider between members of the same movement, but I haven't witnessed that within MR to the extent that it exists within feminism - or at all really, for that matter. We can disagree on whether gender roles are empowering or oppressive without it having any bearing on civil / legal / social rights. A person can hold the view "A real…
