Their mental gymnastics justifies all slights against person's in the oppressing class especially when the slights come from people in the oppressed class. Through this completely skewed lens anyone with the appearance of multiple victimhood statuses can practically do no wrong. You will rarely reach them with reason because they have abandoned it for caveman urges.

"I was reading Antidump’s machine and he went on to say how if she’s not super interested in you, then you have to drop her. Like, if she declines two date ideas you just delete her number. And I’m going to sound like such a bitch for saying this, but that sounds crazy to me. That high of a standard for women just seems absurd." It's not a standard for the women, it's a standard for you so you aren't wasting your time and energy.

I had an ex act take grave offense when I suggested we might have both attained greater sexual satisfaction had I been natural. The sex was already great and she talked as if it was a selfish desire to not have been cut. Taking into account other topics we'd discussed it was clear she was all about my body my choice, but apparently only for women.

It's because society puts women on a pedestal. It's really always been this way, it's just that with women now having the right to vote, near absolute power in parental rights, and all the other things they lacked for legal equality; then you contrast that with them never losing their innate social status as a protected class, too weak to have true agency even as adults, too immature to bear equal responsibility for a drunken ONS... this is the result.

It's a catch 22, and ultimately driven by a denial of reality. Many women claim they want men to be able to speak out, to show sensitivity and vulnerability, but very few of them will respond the same way to you actually doing that as they would to another woman confiding in them. Showing vulnerability as a man is viewed as weakness. Having victimhood attached to a common man might garner pity, but not respect. Opening up is necessary, but it's critical to remain very private about it if you don…

Attraction cannot be negotiated. He showed vulnerability, for right or wrong, and she lost attraction. Is she a terrible person for it? Pretty much. Is this uncommon or unexpected? Not really. Women generally do not respond positively to weakness or vulnerability in their men. No, it's not fair, but you're not going to change the biology of an irrational being by reasoning with it either.

I've been wrestling with this for months. I think I have a pretty quality gf, but she isn't very close to my ideal physically and doesn't stimulate me intellectually. I can substitute the mental aspects with other close friends, but being exclusive... not the former issue.

Because you can determine the merits of a title by the results of the group adhering to that title.

Lots of women do this, in fact it's basically expected of them. Why do you think the stereotype of the guy always being wrong exists? Women relieve themselves of agency so that they can never be seen at fault when they fuck shit up or feel bad about their choices. Often they'd rather deal with the cognitive dissonance of lying to themselves if it means everyone else thinks that the woman's problems are purely circumstantial. You probably shouldn't have even confronted her about it, accepted the …

Only time I saw him make mention of the word pathological was about his nephew. Via context you could maybe extrapolate the same about females, but unless I missed it it was not 'literally said'.

Just excluding the other gender makes it strange. Given the context it really doesn't, and even in his own words he uses an example of a male liar he knows. It would be fair to guess that GC69 also understands that men are not to be taken at their word simply for being male and that women are not to be disbelieved simply for being female.

I was personally present for one when I was in middle school shadowing a surgeon, but I've always been pretty desensitized and detached.

Background: I was cut at birth like so many, I always thought this was a good thing, family always said this was the right way. I eventually dug into the topic like OP and completely changed my take on it. So get this.

She was never that bright though. Don't be stupid.…

It belies the assumed innocence of the procedure. They also stupidly believe that not remembering something in the way adults remember things means that it has no effect. A brief study of childhood trauma and associated PTSD and repressed memories should be enough to convince someone with a lick of sense that this is patently false.

How can I believe all of this, if the author doesn't want me to circumcise? Obviously I'm not OP but I have done my own digging, have uncovered the same info as OP, and agree with basically everything he presents here. I don't care if you want to cut yourself, 100% your choice. Kids are not property, however, and being a purely elective cosmetic procedure except in rare cases it is deeply wrong to take that choice away from them.

Yeah well I've read that circumcised dicks are on average 15% shorter than uncut, too. I'm cut, well above average in length and girth (genetic olympics, baby), I like my dick because I'm a man not a self loathing bitch, and of course sex is fun, but I should have never been cut without my consent.

But I agree that we shouldn't perform it on children who cannot consent to it This is exactly the problem in the US. I have zero problem with adults choosing to lop off any part of themselves they like as long as I don't have to pay for it. I don't even mind if parents have a conversation with their kids about having it done and maybe ultimately have it done, but the kid needs a lot more say in it and the only thing an infant will do is protest.

It is really a matter of common sense... It should be, but bring it up in a public forum here and all you get is screeching about hygiene, cultural norms, appearance. Almost no one here who supports the practice gives a fuck that it's not actually necessary and therefore deeply violates the child.

I was cut, thought it was totally normal and even a good thing.

Circumcision is not required under Christian faith. No, but many of them still cite religious reasons for doing so.

I'm no model of pure success, but I'm glad I'm making progress even at 31. It's never too late to stop sucking at being a man. Don't trust a woman? No, trust no one but yourself. Unless someone admits it, and I have my suspicions, I'll never know how exactly I contracted herpes, but it's pretty much …

This is because FGM has been demonized in the West (and rightly so) where MGM has been applauded. In terms of "Does X look better than Y?" it's no different than pierced ears or tattoos. Some people like them, some don't, and some don't care either way. This should be a good indicator that the "But it doesn't look better" argument won't get you far. The far more important argument is that it's unnecessary, painful, and permanent. While it's necessary on rare occasion, the vast majority of the ti…

Yes, but Title IX 'investigations' are not subject to any real legal scrutiny, to even call them investigations is wildly inaccurate, and nothing I've heard about them ever involved things like officer testimony or official forensic reports. Title IX investigations don't report to the police, they set up their own panel of school staff and listen to the accuser, and occasionally the accused, then decide who they think is telling more truth based on "a preponderance of the evidence". Furthermore,…

Screw forcing the schools to conduct investigations on criminal actions, there was nothing wrong with the way it was before where if there was a crime you report it to the police and it gets investigated. If it doesn't get investigated properly we definitely need to correct that, but Title IX created many more problems than it solved. Due process is a crucial right. Involving untrained and unelected administrators in cases that belong in court is only begging for miscarriages of justice.

Good advice. We do not meet the all criteria in our state for a common law marriage.

We do meet the other criteria, cohabitation and being of age, but you have to meet all the criteria from what I can find.

This is part of the reason you have to declare your right to remain silent. Once you declare your right to remain silent, interrogation ends.

Atrocious. I did some quick searching and found the percentage may often be more like 10%, but that still appears very wrong as it creates incentive for the state to demand more money.

Oh, it doesn't take time to go to court? It doesn't take time and money to secure an attorney to argue your case and navigate the complex legal system? And as for child support, there are many paying significantly more than $400/month. The average in 2010 was $430: http://www.census.gov/newsroom/releases/archives/childre…

The law is faulty and should be changed. You're seriously telling me that, in order to achieve a more fair settlement in the common matter of child custody and support, a person should be required to spend exorbitant amounts of time and money that that person may not even have? That's very wrong, and it's wrong to put people in that position if it can be helped. Btw, it's "concur". And no, you think the government is going to help someone trying to reduce the amount of money they're required to …

Yes, the child needs support, but not from someone who was wronged in the act of creating the child. The same should apply for men who are lied to about birth control, men whose sperm was salvaged in order to conceive without their consent, even men who had the mother leave for no good reason. "His sperm, his duty" is overreaching, and some of these cases the child(ren) aren't even blood related to the man that gets sued for support.

It's still different because the child does not and cannot consent to the action (I say cannot because a large number of child support orders are filed before the child is even 10 years old, such a young child can't have a thorough understanding of the process and its implications). Furthermore, sometimes instead of the custodial parent suing for child support it's the government.

...the child is the one who sues for child support. You're out of your mind. Parents are custodians of their children and act for them when the child cannot, that is not the same as the child acting on its own.

The boy does not pay money to his rapist the boy pay money to the child. You need to understand that is false. The custodial parent is the one who receives the money, there is no paying money to the child. There is also no accountability for how the money is spent, and often it is spent as much if not more on luxury items for the mother rather than the child.

I believe punches fall under this, as broken jaws, broken noses, blindness, and other things can result even when inflicted by a weaker person. I'm also not saying he should have stabbed or shot her, but hitting her harder? Good for him. A robber or vandal who presents an imminent physical threat to someone is no longer merely a robber or vandal. I…

This approach can get very ugly with armed attacks though. Trying to restrain a knife or gun attacker can get really bad fast for the victim. Offensive measures are a good defense in those situations. In the video it's clear he still had trouble restraining her even after he struck her, too. I like the reasoning stated in the petition that if he is expected to not respond as violently as he did in situations such as this it sets a bad precedent for all the other drivers that they are expected to…

I think a big part of the problem is that they're pointing people in a bad direction. When they paint a poor picture, if not outright false, of individuals, then post their private information in a single concise place, it gives crazies an easy route to violate strangers for ultimately no good reason. Doxxers might stand on a moral soap box, but if someone's doing something they shouldn't, the information is more appropriately placed in the hands of the authorities. Doxxing caters to vigilantism…

I want to make the distinction here that there are rights and there are recognized rights. By this definition, women in America always had the right to vote, but for many years it was not a recognized right, the government did not allow women's suffrage. The way I use the word "right" in this context is equivalent to "human rights".

I do see what you're saying here, but I think that's shaky because she did not stop all forms of harassment and assault after she struck him. She might have even gotten away with assaulting him if she'd simply left the bus, but she refused to do that as well. I don't see that he had any reason to believe she was done assaulting him, she did it once and was still acting belligerent, she was reasonably likely to revisit the offense.

When somebody has already assaulted you in that same moment or is clearly about to do so (imminent threat) then it is neither revenge nor preemptive. 1) When a person assaults you, you have no guarantees that they will stop at any point unless you guarantee it yourself. 2) A person who physically attacks someone and immediately is gravely injured or killed as a result of the defense is not a victim. As a side note, the Trayvon Martin case is still ongoing, Zimmerman may or may not have been comp…

So you expect people to let an assailant do whatever they wish to their victims? Because your reasoning doesn't seem to leave room for much else. [edit] for the people who don't get it: you cannot stop an assailant by doing NOTHING.

Elfballer, you're technically correct, but not politically correct. It drives me nuts reading parenting articles where the author always refers to the child as "she". It's hard to know whether the author simply wants to display a different use of pronouns, or if he (ha, see what I did there?) wants to textually spit in the face of men because misandrous undertones are becoming the norm.

Laws which govern financial issues (i.e. support) in divorce aren't passed to screw men. They're passed to make sure that individuals don't have to stay in awful relationships for fear of being homeless and unable to provide for their children. Yet these laws do screw men. They often go much further than needed and do in fact create monetary incentive for a woman to leave her husband, rewarding her for breaking the marital contract and, by means of excessive cost, punishing him for her decision.…
