Actually they do, it's less because most women don't approach most. Men

It's not that they want to be asshole, women claim they don't like assholes , it's women that give the impression that they choose based on moral character all the time, so when they don't, it makes no sense especially for someone who is very morally because the idea is if he who is a piece of shit can get someone, why am I, who isn't a POS still struggling

Anti femininits, trad wives, MRA, non feminist, men, conservatives e.t.c, There are more but those are just examples

Being a feminist isn’t a relationship role; it’s a belief in an ideology. An ideology that doesn’t automatically make someone a good or bad partner. People often generalize because many feminists present themselves as moral beacons, so when flaws are noticed and questions are asked, they may deny it. You could argue this applies to other groups too, but it seems they aren’t held to the same standard because they dont give this level of charity to any other group they disagree with.

feminism is the advocacy of women to achieve the goal of equality; it doesn't mean they don't have a preference for traditional men in relationships

A trad wife isn’t the opposite of a feminist, and it seems there’s some misunderstanding about what a trad wife is. They take care of the home and their partner when he’s there. A feminist doesn’t necessarily have to see men as partners; they can still view men as a paycheck and not actively support their partner. Assuming that being a feminist automatically makes someone a good romantic partner isn’t true, and assuming feminists can’t have traditional expectations of men while not fulfilling th…

I am fine with caveat it's not always 50/50 all the time but in situations that aren't lopsided yes it is

You aren't getting it, you assuming logic some people just like taking advantage of others even people who are poor, a woman doesn't need a reason to take advantage of someone, neither does a man, why marry if I can just have sex with someone else and leave, you are looking for basis, even thou ther doesn't need time be, I don't have to be rich for a woman to use me away a wallet, I just have to be willing to do what she wants
/r/PurplePillDebate26/07/26 06:07 PM

not really, there are women who use their partner as wallets , there is real difference in motives, you are looking for a way to apply this specifically to men and i dont get why
/r/PurplePillDebate26/07/26 05:44 PM

ok not loyalty , but a 50/50 is not a basis for a redflag, is poor behaviour that is basis for that , if you dont want your relationship to be 50/50 say that but the issue isnt the 50/50

but this goes both ways whay are you making it sound unique to men
/r/PurplePillDebate26/07/26 05:14 PM

I think it’s a dumb take. Whether a man splits things 50/50 or follows a strictly traditional approach doesn’t make him more or less loyal. This applies to both women and men, there are men who cover everything financially, even hire a maid, and still get cheated on, sometimes losing their money and kids in the process.

I don't know whether or not it will lead to better outcome but i am saying men approaching doesn't always or even mostly lead to success and they should approach when they want to , who they want to and when they think it is likely to lead to success, but I think the same applies to women biology doesn't entitle men to anything but it's the same for women
/r/PurplePillDebate24/07/26 03:18 PM

I don't think it's better for everyone, if you want to approach, approach if you don't, then don't however if someone wants you or is interested in you, it's up to them to get your attention or approach you themselves and that includes women, no one is entitled to anything even women, as for expectation I don't believe either gender should have that expectation
/r/PurplePillDebate24/07/26 02:39 PM

I don’t agree because I don’t think feminism is truly against gender roles for men, only for women. If it were, there would be equal effort in addressing the gender expectations placed on men and in calling out not just men, but also women who engage in and expect those roles from men. That doesn’t happen often, so I’m not convinced. I do agree on one point: feminism gives men an excuse not to participate, not because the movement inherently supports it, but because men are no longer obligated t…

this is somehow changed because you approached him, men still approach women and still make this complaint , but as i said before a man approaching you doesnt somehow make him a better man , and you sleeping with him is not payment for a relationship, you can choose to stop the relationship, just like men can choose to end a relationship that doesnt follow through, you know just like how if you dont have sex with them , they move on , or if you somehow show red flags they move on

this implies dating always leads to relationships or that there arent people who date for fun or for other reasons.

you do know even if they approach you , they can still waste your time which is the point, if it was that you were saying yes based on seriousness then sure, women say yes to men who they find attractive
/r/PurplePillDebate23/07/26 10:26 PM

its not about law, if men arent approaching those women its because there is no incentive to approach, its up to women to approach those specific men in that scenerio , because those men have less to gain approaching them
/r/PurplePillDebate23/07/26 10:23 PM

by that logic no woman should complain about men not approaching them , and they shouldnt complain when a guy they like doesnt notice them

I agree with Richard Reeves but and I am not for generalisation but I am for holding the movement accountable for its shitty member , they don't do that, and the reason i am is reasonable, the charity you are requesting for them is not something they award to other groups they disagree with, even this one, they aren't deserving of that charity

You do realize a lot of women also echo red pill beliefs, right? If listening to and observing women was the best or the even the ultimate solution, then many of those red pill theories wouldn’t hold any truth. You’re assuming women always know exactly what they want or are clear-cut in their preferences, but believing women doesn’t always work, if it did, everyone would follow their advice and be feminists. Even your point on feminism isn’t entirely accurate: most anti-suffragettes were women, …

Okay, but how many men actually do this? This seems like a serious outlier. Your argument is based on a weak premise, using an outlier to make a point rather than reflecting a common pattern of behavior. you are cherry the most extreme and asking for why they would do this , most men do not do this , no i mean most women encourage marriage more than men overall , its not usually not men forcing marraiges
/r/PurplePillDebate19/07/26 01:36 PM

This is a straw man, most men consider finances before considering entering a relationship much less getting married , if anything it's usually women insisting on marriage even progressive women

Most women don't have to do this, they do this because they want to attract a specific man, you aren't entitled to a man you, it's up to you to appeal to him and it's not by force, you choose to do this

Men don't complain about women wearing revealing clothing thou, rarely see this happen. Also women outright whine about men looking at them at the gym and finding them attractive, men don't, if you aren't trying to get male then you have the right to complain but if you are then you are the issue here, you deny the intention behind it and gaslighting men for calling your BS out

I disagree, I would argue most men would be fine being stay at home husband, you see just under the assumption that Stay at home husbands are popular with women, women also want a man with finance in fact one of the reasons a lot of men aren't dating is particularly because they don't have the means to finance a family

Traditionally masculine traits aren’t by default conservative; they’re just more likely to encourage conservative tendencies, because it's conservatives who encourage that form of masculinity. I also think there’s some confusion between liberal and progressive. The issue is that progressive women often claim you don’t need to present your masculinity in a specific way, but that doesn’t necessarily matter when it comes to attraction because attraction isn’t logical. Just because they say they’re …

First off, it’s not about whether a preference is valid, but whether it creates an obligation for either gender to meet it. Relationships are about compromise, so both sides need to give and take. Everyone has their preferences, men included, and if someone doesn’t meet yours, you wouldn’t lower your standards, which is fine. The same goes for men. No one should be blamed for their preferences, but everyone is responsible for the results they get in dating, regardless of gender. It’s perfectly f…

They are now less interested in relationships and less willing to compromise, yet their requirements have grown, and their expectations have become more rigid compared to their view on masculinity. Compared to the past, fewer people are involved, and the tools men once used to navigate these dynamics have diminished.

The only thing that makes patriarchy unique is the leadership of men, nothing else. Not gender roles, not traditional expectations of men, not even what’s considered toxic masculinity. It’s solely the leadership aspect that sets patriarchy apart.

That doesn’t make sense. Women can be single too. If the claim is that more men are single not by choice, that’s fine, but it should also be shown that women choose to be single because they see it as better, not because they can’t find the man they want. They don’t actually have more options, since that would suggest there are more men than women, and in reality, more men are actively seeking relationships than women. Dating apps give women more opportunities because men are more likely to init…

Okay, sure, you’re right; you can be progressive and still express traditional masculinity. Apologies, what I disagree with the guy in the video on is the idea that he can prescribe a form of masculinity as if it's the correct version; that's antithetical to the idea that masculinity shouldn't be restrictive
/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates16/07/26 11:42 AM

No, you don’t get to decide the masculine expression that individual men, or men as a whole, choose to show. You can only encourage the one you want and hope they decide to embody it. Even if they have the qualities you want, if you’re looking for that type of man, it’s up to you to embody the qualities that kind of man desires. This video also goes on the assumption that women by default embody the qualities these type of men want, we dont know this.

Exactly, conservatives are the ones who promote this kind of masculinity. You don’t even have to be conservative to appeal to it; you just need to find a way to meet these men halfway. I don’t think the type of men these women want would necessarily date them, because there’s no way for a guy to know which woman embodies the type of femininity he’s looking for unless he talks to her. It’s conservative women who encourage traditionalism, while progressives are the ones who reject it. They even cr…

Not really, if he was dressing it up as exploring romantic compatibility then he would bring up sex as multiple, according to post, he expressed he wouldn't continue the relationships, if there was no sex and he chose to be straight forward meaning when she said I don't know, he took as no, she invited him later and he asked again, how is that manipulative, she can say no

Wrong again cuck means you let your partner sleep with other men , beta means weak, if you are weak, it means you lack the skills to be successful in dating , at least they think this, a cuck doesn't get sex, redpillers measure success based on sex, they don't believe a cuck is having sexe hence the insult, what context, what connotations

Except it can, you can explain what flirting and get evidence on the most successful types of flirting, you can study if specific dating event actually leads to success, Dr K has done this, but it doesn't claim it's an absolute guarantee but this increases your chances, I never claimed redpillers do this so

No one, but moral judgment about dating failures, especially towards men, seems to come more from progressives than from redpillers. I’m not sure about tough love, but saying it’s your responsibility to improve your dating life is different from saying it’s your fault. Sometimes things aren’t your fault, but if you want them to get better, it’s up to you to fix them. You can say it’s someone’s responsibility without claiming their failure is solely due to lack of effort. These ideas aren’t mutua…

I never said they were unideological, but they’re more likely to admit the blame isn’t solely on you. Blue pillers aren’t like that, and most normal people aren’t always upfront that dating advice doesn’t guarantee success, which is the real issue. It’s not that the advice is worthless, but blue pillers tend to place more blame on the individual regardless of the effort put in, even thou the effort never guaranteed success in the first place

It’s not that it doesn’t work, but more that no one really has solid, evidence-based dating advice. Red Pillers claim theirs works, and for some people, it can. for you to give proper non toxic dating advice, you have to acknowledge that it might not work and its not your fault. Progressives usually don’t give men that level of grace except for people like Dr. K, and they tend to focus more on women. Men don’t necessarily need dating advice; they need honest discussions about their issues from a…

That doesn’t make sense. The red pill isn’t enforcing this; they’re acknowledging what’s already enforced. If we were actually dismantling these roles effectively for both men and women, the red pill wouldn’t exist. They rely on gender relationships to make their observations, but observation isn’t the same as endorsement. It’s about examining how society views and treats gender and its roles.

That’s what I’m saying, the red pill isn’t inherently right-wing; it just happens to have more right-wing people associated with it. Unlike feminism, which is left wing because it’s politically motivated as well , the red pill isn’t driven by politics. It’s more of a descriptive and prescriptive framework about dating and gender dynamics. While many followers may hold political views, the framework itself isn’t a complete political ideology.

You’re misunderstanding what I’m saying. Based on red pill values, they can align either way because they’re not actually pro–gender roles edi: whether conservatives live up to their is a different conversation, i am talking about redpillers not them

The red pill and conservatism are related in public perception, but they are not the same ideology. Traditional conservatives generally emphasize marriage, family stability, responsibility, and protection, while many red pill spaces focus more on sexual strategy, hypergamy, status, and male self-improvement. That distinction matters because conservatives can reject aspects of red pill culture while still holding traditional views about gender roles. At the same time, politics still affects datin…

The biggest reason the red pill is popular is because it highlights real behaviour that people don't like to acknowledge exist in dating, for example even if progressive reject gender roles being forced it doesn't mean they reject it as a preference so they don't believe they should live by it but they want that preference for their relationship, it's inconsistent but you can't point out hypocrisy because it's based on choice not actually destroying gender roles, if they wanted to destroy gender…

Yeah, that’s another issue, they forget that their philosophy is mainly from a women’s perspective and interpretation.

It doesn’t have to be about legality, but more about a lack of conditions. The benefit to men in this case is very conditional; it doesn’t really change anything, and they don’t directly influence the decision, only indirectly and if certain conditions outside of their control are met. Regardless of their preference, they can’t do anything to change it, and it doesn't affect their gender roles positively or negatively

Those are important structural and legal improvements, but they aren't necessarily examples of disadvantages that every woman experiences daily. Not every woman wants to vote, attend college, join the military, run for office, or get divorced.

Most men do not benefit, and deciding as a couple is a personal matter that affects both parties and it only matters if the woman values her partner’s opinion.

The point isn't whether some men can benefit from an abortion taking place. Obviously, some do. My point is that abortion doesn't represent a direct gain for men as men. The legal right belongs to the woman. If she wants an abortion and he doesn't, she can still have one. If he wants an abortion and she doesn't, he has no legal ability to compel it. His role and legal position haven't changed. So, while some men may benefit when their partner chooses abortion, that's an indirect or incidental be…

It's not even a vague answer. If you create gender-specific initiatives to address what is fundamentally a gender-neutral need, then you've created an institutional disparity. That's a concrete disadvantage. The reason you can't point to someone's personal life as evidence is that movements make claims about populations, not individuals.

I’ll be straightforward: there’s no direct advantage men gain, and it’s not consistent across the board. For example, with shifting gender roles, feminists may advocate for removing certain expectations for women, but that doesn’t mean those same expectations will be removed for men. Abortion doesn’t really change anything for men, and men’s roles haven’t shifted much.

Aside from increased misandry, it reduces my opportunity to get jobs due to quota meaning , i have a reduced chance getting a job, same with schools, i am not afforded as much chance of a getting a scholarships, there are less social workshops for me provided by the governement when i am in trouble because a lot of them are gendered for women, they tend to pathologize men , leading to more misconceptions about men and more mischaractirizations of men

There are no inherent advantages, though there can be some indirect ones that depend heavily on specific situations and on how the feminist movement chooses to address them, which they often don’t. If we separate men and women, there’s no inherent advantage for men, do you think there is one

I don't necessarily know about disadvantage aside maybe they have increased the misandry but like I think they significantly overstate the advantages it gives men and they tend to pretend it only comes from them even thou they are just one factor they aren't even the main cause, another issue is their theory over pathologises men and because it is taken as fact by most of their well members, it leads to a lot of misconceptions. There is more but for now that's that I can think off

Russia started the war, Ukraine didn’t—they defended themselves. It’s Ukrainians, not Russians, who are seeking asylum. Simply being men is not a significant factor, but it is a lot of weight in your argument . If anything, it makes more sense for men to accept other men seeking asylum.

Again, feminists fight for women’s empowerment, not equality. You’re also assuming that removing the patriarchy eliminates gender role for men.

I think progressives should be discussing male issues beyond just encouraging men to open up. Actively seeking help is a good step, but it’s only one small part of the picture.

There should be male-tailored approaches to solving problems like suicide, loneliness, depression, domestic violence, and ch…

i disagree with your argument on why, its not so much that these women are being picked but more so that they are trying to attract any woman, they are seeing any woman as success because they generally don't get women in abundance like at all, that's why the argument is bad, its not that they don't want to pick someone else, its that woman in question is their option, the better advice is to say they should prefer being single because that's an objectively bad partner

Communicating fr this kind of aspect is like putting on a performance, where you display traits that are appealing. However, attractive characteristics are neutral and not necessarily good qualities or triats.

I’m not blue-pilled, but even when women can’t find a partner, I don’t think there’s some deep underlying reason. Maybe they just don’t put themselves out there, but I don’t believe it’s due to emotional instability or an ideological issue. For some, it might come down to looks , , but I don’t really buy that either, since men have a wide range of preferences when it comes to who they date or sleep with.

the only thing that makes men specifically unique is reproduction just like women, nothing else, but in terms of benefit to society, simple, they contribute to the functioning of society just like women, they also work, they also pay tax, they also come up with ideas that better society, they also are willing to do dirty work, the idea that women provide a unique outside of reproduction isnt true this also applies to men

Trauma does not inherently impair one's ability to understand or make decisions; rather, mental impairment affects these cognitive functions. While experience, including trauma, can influence behavior, it is different from mental impairment, which poses a greater challenge to decision-making capacity from birth, unlike trauma which is a result of experience. i dont have to accept how she is portrayed, but like even i were to accept it , it doesn't mean she is supposed to be viewed in a positive …

My argument is simple: the reason people, especially men, dislike Jenny isn’t just because she makes bad decisions but because Forrest is mentally impaired. Regardless of genre, the movie portrays her dying of HIV and Forrest raising their son as an emotionally satisfying or even positive ending for Forrest. If Jenny were a man and Forrest a woman, he would face far more scrutiny and receive less sympathy from fans. In that case, people would recognize the power imbalance, and some might even se…

No, it’s a romance, that’s the genre of the movie. I’m not saying she has a motive, but her actions aren’t always kind to Forrest, and a fully grown, mentally capable man would notice the red flags. She’s lucky it’s Forrest, and she’s given way too much leeway for her bad decisions. Whether she was nice to him as a kid isn’t the point , the point is that she increasingly makes choices that should hurt Forrest, yet he sticks by her not because she deserves it, even though that’s how the movie fra…

You are correct, I am saying the dating context isn't required for sex, the dating context is required for a date, if she is sleeping with a man she would date, she isn't being used, she is sleeping with him thinking that sex should establish a relationship or a relationship is already established.

The reason I don’t place much blame on men for hookup culture is simple: most men aren’t engaging in it.

If they were being forced, that’s wrong, and the responsibility falls on men. But if you’re not forced and still not getting what you want from hookups, the issue lies with you, not culture.

I’m not saying it can’t be part of patriarchy; I’m saying there’s no kind of society, even one where women hold more authoritative power than men, where men aren’t still the majority in high-risk, high-security, and resource-gathering roles. Patriarchy can adopt this idea, but it didn’t originate there, and they’re not the only ones who have done it or could amplify it.

No, it’s not. In every society, even in matriarchal ones, men have been overrepresented in high-security and high-risk jobs, and they’ve often been judged more on their usefulness than their inherent humanity.

The body itself makes that argument On top of that, those men are never judged by their good qualities. They’re only held to their presumed bad qualities. So it becomes “he’s an asshole but he’s an active father, doesn’t get angry with her, and helps feed the hungry.” I’m being a bit facetious for the sake of the example but you get the point. these are perception based, you can only know this based on actions and outcomes not morally, having good qualities doesn't make you good, its a collectio…

The problem is that your title suggests you can be sexually attractive because you’re good, but from what you’ve written in this reply, it leans toward the idea that you can be a good person and also be sexually attractive. They’re not mutually exclusive, they are separate factors that can exist together and also exist separately from each other on its own . edit: Actually, you agree with me more than you think. It’s all about perception—what you consider good may be different My question is, wh…

This argument relies on a false premise that being good or bad is what makes you sexually attractive, that's not true, competence and perception is what makes you sexually attractive, good or bad is determined by how your actions affect others not by how people view you, meaning that the actions taken regardless of intent affects people positively is what should make you good perception however is different . you can be horrible to everyone in your path but because you are successful that can wr…

This doesn’t really align with the data, and considering that most women don’t mind being approached, even by average men tend to date poor women more often than women date poor men. They also date women who aren’t conventionally attractive with fewer caveats. People generally date their age range. As for men who avoid dating women with kids, it’s more complicated since there’s a third party involved who often more lasting presence than the man, and the cost of a failed relationship involving ch…

If you’re meeting someone for the first time, unless you already know them well and have communicated with them for a considerable of time, you really can’t tell much. A date is one of the best ways to get a sense of someone’s character; even through their texts, it's not always shown. Plus, it’s not like women share their dating history right away; people tend to curate how they present themselves until they feel comfortable.

not the point, firstly you assume they have to selfish to be attracted to bad men Secondly, the main idea is simple: women aren’t always attracted just because a man is good to them. If the advice to men is that treating a woman right will make her like them, it should lead to results. If doesn’t, then why is that the advice? Whether the woman is a good partner isn’t the point; the focus is on getting any woman to show attraction, not a specific one. Many men struggle to get any female attention…

The issue is that sex is a fundamental part of marriage, and having sex outside of it is considered cheating. There’s also the framing that men only wanting sex is seen as a negative for women, from sex work to hookup culture. Men don’t always connect sex with love, while women often do. Even in hookup culture, it’s framed as something that benefits men, yet if both parties are getting what they want the man seeking sex and the woman perhaps using sex as a way to keep him neither is necessarily …

This isn't really something that they imply outright, but a lot of feminists just have that tendency to act like that. There's this deep conspiracy to market and tailor everything for male use. A great example is the whole shenanigans is the pink tax discussion, while yes, sometimes men's grooming products are much cheaper and therefore more affordable to buy in a bulk setting keep in mind this is usually because men are willing to pay a cheaper price for grooming products considering a lot of m…

You're missing the point a bit there. It isn't referring to "men" but "patriarchs"- men who have power over others, in the mold of the Roman paterfamilias. Considering this is supposed to be a "left wing" sub, I'd hope that would be an important distinction. This is still blaming men in the end , because it implies this can only occur based on fact that a man was in control , the statememt patriarchy in feminist terms is used different from how any other group uses it because it used as a villai…

Not direcrtly, indirectly but as i said before you are under the assumption that they believe this , they dont , if they did , they would provide equally the same support or resources or at least half of what they do for women they dont , some of them even shunn discoursiona of male issues in university , they dont even t heavily discuss thwse issues in respects to solving them but more as a critic to men and the critic isnt for helping men but educating women and empowering women , they have do…

aside from actions the basis of their theories implies that men simply being in charge is based on a strategic and planned effort to subjugate women, and anything that is somehow a benefit to men mainly is a negative even when it has nothing to do with them, they tie into basically anything wrong with the world Take the patriarchy idea, its is mainly deemed as a bad thing because it puts men on the pedestal and harms women and it is mainly blamed on men and not simply a product of the times or e…

They dont , men dont rely on women more than women rely on men emotionally , thats literally the point of toxic masculinity , the idea that men do not try to connect emotionally to any one even their partners , they are the emotional rock even for women , its also why they are the ones whose emotional needs actually take a back seat generally, women also vent to their partners even to the point that it can become toxic , women also use their insecurities as a means to guilt trip their partners a…

i don't think its wrong to not want to engage in such behaviors or hobbies, you shouldn't judge those who do but the idea that does who don't simply want to are fragile is weird because it implies that they cant just choose not to do something , either way , there is no terrible or negative consequences to doing it

it is true that in some area's men are the leaders DeFacto, specifically in the middle east, some African countries, and Asian countries, and there are some who abuse that power, however, I don't think it's as conspiratorial as feminist make it out to be.

False the main reason is lack of charisma for some hygiene and some looks , misogyny can play a role in you not getting , but you can be misogynisitic , openingly and get women , there are several examples of this online and in real life , being broke or not having a degree also doesnt prevent you from getting , also the demonization of masculinity doesnt play a role , there are men who are very feminine and get a lot of women , charisma and unique ness is the main issue , being a good person al…

I think men should just go back to being toxicly masculine not because i think its healthy but i dont think people care for them or thier issue so they should do what they have always done, help themselves

it does, and it's ironic, because it reflects everything the left claims to hate about toxic masculinity which is odd because they use it the most, incel is derogatory not because the person is misogynistic but because the person is incompetent when it comes to sex , if it was based on misogyny they would not receive the most vitriol because they aren't the most harmful to women, not by a long shot even the person they site as an example Elliot roger, killed more men than women when he went on h…

i don't think you can be pro feminist and pro men because the feminist ideology specifically views men as the enemy. even the way they talk about men or theorize male action implies that men are just oppressors and their enemy
/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates29/09/23 07:31 AM

not neccessarily being for men right indirectly makes you ant feminist, because feminism views men as the oppressor class by default , so in a way while being anti feminist doesnt mean pro men, being pro men issues is anti feminist indirectly

I think there are some form of objectively systematic violence against women , in cases of religions that encourage disciplining of the wife specifically or outright misogyny or killing of women for not doing her duties but that's where i think it ends , i don't believe male violence against women overall is systematic, because its spontaneous it happens random and doesn't actually go in line with the facts, women are less likely to be attacked in public compared to by people they know, women di…

exactly because the way at which they use implies men have some form of self hatred , but the reason why they don't label it as that would be because it will take away the focus and attention from women , and what's odd about it is that if they did frame it that way , it could lead to better revelations and results, ​ an example is the idea that men are choosing to not show emotions because it makes them weak, they made it about themselves and implied that its because women are more emotional an…

Sorry I am about to go on a rant on one of their replies to the linked post because the cracks in their response is too annoying to ignore As far as I know, but I may be off about a couple of things, the core tenets of feminism are equality and equal of all gender expressions, gender identities and non-hetero normative Sexualities. Also I believe acknowledgement of the patriarchal system which system which has, and continues to, suppress anyone that is not a cis-gendered man. Suppression can als…

They mean something specific by this, which is that misogyny is a system of oppression faced by women and bought into by misogynist men and women. Misandry doesn't exist in the same sense, and it's very rare to find men and women who hold truly anti-male beliefs. Those few people who do hold those beliefs aren't reinforced by a system of oppression, they're just kooks with little to no power. someone actually said this BS there even thou they literally consider toxic masculinity as an anti male …

it makes sense, because its in line with traditionalism, homophobia and transphobic can be misandrist but its isn't necessary misandry just transphobia and homophobia , also even if you did go against this sentiment , this doesn't mean that they do not support men issues, one of the reasons for transphobia and homophobia from MRAs Specifically is because the LGBTQ also participated in outright misandrist and hateful behaviors towards men , and while it doesn't mean they should clap back with big…

i agree to an extent but at the same thing, they actively oppose solutions as long as those solution dont help women, or reduces their own influences, the reason feminism gets a lot of hate from anyone who tries to address men issues, is because feminist tend to road block areas people try to help men in , even when those areas dont include women, they also like to go after anyone who addresses men issues even their own this sub mainly critics and uses actually good arguments against their point…
