-3	Do women really think men are stupid? Both patriarchy and logic have their origins in the ancient Greek language: patriarkhēs and logikē. Logic derives from logos (word) and it means the art of reason. Patriarchy literally means 'rule of the father'. Reason tells me that fathers can have both sons and daughters. Therefore sons and daughters can both be the victims of a cruel and self-serving father. And in its modern usage, as sons and daughters of patriarchal order, we can all be harmed by patriarchy: both men and women. Quod erat …	/r/MensRights	23/11/23 01:10 PM
1	Do women really think men are stupid? I agree that no gender alone created our society. And it is certainly true that women participated in the ongoing production of patriarchal orders through hundreds if not thousands of years of history. Patriarchy has not been stable, and it has not been one thing at all times and places. Human history is always in fluxing and evolving. However, patriarchy has still been a dominant strand in the ancestral societies to our current society. I do not understand patriarchy to be a theory that assumes…	/r/MensRights	23/11/23 12:57 PM
-13	Do women really think men are stupid? Patriarchy isn't supposed to benefit men. It's a power system that uses and abuses men and women in different ways. Patriarchy only benefits those at the top of the hierarchy. Most men are kept well down the hierarchy. That's why most men are wage slaves and cannon fodder.	/r/MensRights	23/11/23 12:48 AM
1	How to learn how to date the right way I approached my mid-20s in a similar situatino to you. I found that dating websites and apps were a godsend. The hardest bit for me was asking someone out and fearing rejection. But n a dating website or app, that's what everyone is there for. So my first advice is to find a site or app that you think suits you. Get your profile up. Be honest in your profile. Don't try to puff yourself up. The more you read other people's profiles, the more you will get a sense of what works to write. Women like…	/r/ExRedPill	23/11/23 12:32 AM
1	Why are men called misogynistic in response to attempting to hold women accountable? Survivor bias would be a fantastic alternative name for Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection.	/r/MensRights	22/11/23 11:54 PM
-14	Feminists criticize evolutionary psychology,but believe in patriarchy. There is the whole historical legal framework that denied women, personhood, bodily autonomy, property rights, voting rights, bank accounts and so on. Plus the whole agnatic male-preference primogeniture.	/r/MensRights	22/11/23 11:49 PM

1	Do women really think men are stupid? The women I know don't think that I'm stupid, so it's not an experience I can relate to.	/r/MensRights	22/11/23 11:39 PM
-1	Why are men called misogynistic in response to attempting to hold women accountable? I've never felt the need for a separate 'men's rights' movement as liberation for both men and women is the goal of the feminists who have most inspired me. The idea that women have 'created a world that is actively hostile to boys and men' just doesn't fit with my life experiences. I am sorry if you have had experiences that make things feel that way, and I hope your experiences improve.	/r/MensRights	22/11/23 11:36 PM
1	Why are men called misogynistic in response to attempting to hold women accountable? I think your 'observable reality' suffers from confirmation bias, as some people's experiences like Hubris are valid to you, but other people's experiences are treated as suspect if they don't affirm your views.	/r/MensRights	22/11/23 08:39 PM
1	Why are men called misogynistic in response to attempting to hold women accountable? Wow, I am sorry you have suffered so much from such an awful parent. I hope you have managed to make a clean break to no longer have her in your life. And I hope it hasn't left too severe a legacy of cptsd.	/r/MensRights	22/11/23 05:08 PM
3	Why are men called misogynistic in response to attempting to hold women accountable? Karl Popper would say that your Mum falsifies your views about women, and that it is manipulation of the data to exclude her from the dataset. Are there any other women in your life that do not fit the portrayal you gave, and that you exclude from the dataset too? I don't blame 'women' for taking advantage of men's desperation, such as through Only Fans. I blame our particularly manipulative form of economic consumerism. In so many ways, we have all have our needs and insecurities manipulated to…	/r/MensRights	22/11/23 04:50 PM
-5	Why are men called misogynistic in response to attempting to hold women accountable? If we look at observable reality, the great majority of people don't view women in such a negative way. So we must conclude that most people are having positive experiences with most women. Hubris's experiences are therefore worth asking about to understand why he does not share the much more positive mainstream view of women. p.s. Yeah, my Mum too. She never could get her head around pot odds mental calculations so she would fold too early!	/r/MensRights	22/11/23 12:13 AM
2	I can't believe how much people don't care I am so sorry to hear that you feel this way. It must be very hard keeping on from day to day when you are feeling so low. One day five years ago, I was shattered by the news that my best friend had killed himself. I won't go into his full story, but I will just say that I think he might still be with us if it was easier for men to share their feelings and help each other. I also think he needed to find the right therapist to help him with the legacy of a very dark chapter from his childhood - b…	/r/MensRights	22/11/23 12:07 AM
-24	Why are men called misogynistic in response to attempting to hold women accountable? No, it is meant to be a question within the context a conversation that I hope will lead somewhere helpful. I asked it as a starting point to try and understand the pivotal female relationships in your life that have led you to feel this way. I am lucky to have many wonderful women in my life that do not fit the characterisation that you give. First and foremost among these is my Mother, to whom I owe so much. Maybe you had a terrible relationship with your mother, and that is a part of how you …	/r/MensRights	21/11/23 11:47 PM
0	The Rise Of Jordan Peterson - Hero or Villain? I came across this doc on JP, the doc goes into why JP is so vocal about mens suffering and how he is saving mens lives. Personally he has made a huge difference to my life and he is a positive role model. Continued in the comments... I'm a feminist and I don't find it hard to have respectful conversations. I think some people would call me a SJW too. I don't call myself that - it is one of those funny buzzword labels that people like to use as an insult these days because I believe in things like social security and fair trade. But yeah, I take your point that some people are not easy to have respectful conversations with. And it has become harder too in the last couple of decades, as so many of us are communicating on a dai…	/r/MensRights	21/11/23 11:41 PM

Personally he has made a huge difference to my life and he is a positive role model. Continued in the comments... I think you may be spending too long on the internet. Get out and meet people. Left-wing people are nice too. The thing is, we don't all have the same ideas about what the best policy approaches are. But we are all trying in our way to get to someone better as a society. Instead of seeing people with different ideas as your enemy, see them as an opportunity to enter interesting exchanges of ideas that allow you to both learn from each other.	/r/MensRights	21/11/23 11:22 PM

That is not a helpful mentality and it does not lead to a positive culture. We should be able should discuss ideas with people whose politics is different in a positive and respectful way. It's also more enjoyable to do it in this way - and we all learn more.	/r/MensRights	21/11/23 11:18 PM

Personally he has made a huge difference to my life and he is a positive role model. Continued in the comments... JP is very exciting and charismatic to listen to. He seems to be able to leap from one subject to another - mythology, neuroscience, economics, etc - and for his audience he always seems to know more about these many subjects than than they do. However, he is an exciting and charismatic phony. You can see this by watching videos when JP is in discussion with people who he knows are smarter than him, or at least on a particular topic are far more expert. Take the discussion he did with Roger Penr…	/r/MensRights	21/11/23 11:13 PM

3	I am fucking tired of being told the purpose of my life is a woman. Stop it. Do what makes you happy. And be nice to all the rest. There's no need to be aggressive to anyone. Live and let live.	/r/MensRights	21/11/23 10:58 PM
0	I am fucking tired of being told the purpose of my life is a woman. Stop it. There's all kinds of messages out there. You will also find plenty of messages out there from people saying to just live your life as you want to. Be single if you like. What's making you unhappy is not these messages, it is that you are so hung up about them. You;re not being "punished" for being a man. What gives you joy in life? Just focus on that instead of getting a persecution complex and letting your mind all caught up in negative thoughts about some of the many and varied messages out th…	/r/MensRights	21/11/23 10:57 PM
