Oh, and women don't blame others for their suicides? "13 Reasons Why" got popular for a reason. People of all genders commit suicide and blame others for it all the time. The difference is that when a woman kills herself and leaves a note blaming a man, nobody considers it to be about gender. Nobody ever says "she just had problems with men."

Let's say a generation of women faces horrible sexism, so as a result, they form a man-hating culture. Then let's say that a new generation is born and starts being raised in this culture. Young boys turning into young men who have never seen the sexism that existed 20 years ago- only the "backlash" to it. All they know is that they've grown up being told how terrible men are. They've been raised to be ashamed of their gender for crimes that they never committed, problems they never contributed …

For what it's worth, I have a friend who fought for the insurance company to cover her out-of-network therapist as sort of a "gap exception" because this therapist met her needs and the others in network didn't. I know insurance fights really suck and maybe you don't want to go that route, but just know that it might be a possibility.

Personally, I would shop around for therapists and question each one in the first meeting to see if they'd be a good fit before forming a relationship. I'd probably say something like "I've had a lot of traumatic experiences inflicted on me by women throughout my life specifically for being male, and specifically in the name of feminism. My mother was abusive and said horrible things about men my entire life, and I was targeted and falsely accused of things in high school that nearly ruined my e…

Man, the hypocrisy. Men: We want to be vulnerable and bring attention to the mental health struggles that so many men are facing. Some women: THIS IS YOUR OWN FUCKING FAULT BECAUSE YOU'RE NEVER VULNERABLE AND YOU NEVER SHARE YOUR EMOTIONS, SO SHUT THE FUCK UP!!! Women will talk day and night about internalized misogyny, about how growing up with xyz caused them to have body image issues, and some even use their own bad experiences with men as an excuse to mistreat men or say horrible things abou…

To be fair, men and boys have been the sole target of ADHD research and discussions for like 60+ years, so I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing to focus a bit on the women who have it (same goes for autism). But I think you bring up an interesting point that when it comes to talking about our own lived experiences, women almost always have the spotlight these days. Men may be targeted more as research subjects, but women are chosen (or volunteer) more when they get to own the narrative. In…

That's fair. And thank you for sharing this video! The "unequal vs different roles" conversation is a very complex one for sure, and definitely one that needs to be brought up more without being dismissed. When both genders are restricted to certain roles, it makes more sense to recognize them both as prisoners than to argue over which role is worse.

I don't think the initial takes were bad, I think they were just one-sided. Accurate, mind you, but one-sided. Women do face those issues in the workplace. But this is where we see an incredibly common issue with discussing gender inequality. Most people, male advocates included, will only talk about their side of things, and not fully consider the struggles of the other gender. And we get so used to seeing that, that it becomes impossible to ever just focus on one gender for a conversation with…

Firstly, trans men sure as hell face transphobia. Let's get that out of the way- being a trans man is not easy. But trans men are a lot more invisible than trans women, and I believe that it has to do with the fact that the vast majority of trans men can pass as cis after they go on testosterone. Testosterone is a very powerful hormone, and it changes the body quite a bit. Once your voice has dropped, your face has masculinized, and perhaps you even have a beard, what does it matter if you're sh…

thinking you're a woman doesn't make you a woman anymore than thinking you're a cat makes you a cat. Transphobe. You're calling trans people delusional. You pretend to be on the side of science despite not understanding the research that has been done on trans people and the evidence that their brains developed differently than the rest of their bodies. Why don't you talk to a doctor who has studied up on the subject? I have talked to several. Typically the word "woman" refers to a social role, …

Dude, gender dysphoria is a medical condition. Brains look different for males and females, and studies have shown that trans people have brain structures and activity that most closely resembles the gender that they claim to be. But tbh your answer about intersex people tells me everything I need to know. You're not even the person I was questioning. I'm not the one who argued that sex-based spaces were important. if no, why is an xx person with those things a woman, but an xy with those things…

not all women have breasts, soft features, wear dresses, etc. Correct. And not all women have XX chromosomes. Do you consider intersex people to be neither men nor women, no matter how they identify and how they have lived? And if somebody's hormone composition is entirely female and they don't have a male reproductive system or male genitals, they are not "biologically male." Maybe they used to be, but they aren't anymore. Nothing about them is male other than their chromosomes at that point. E…

Nobody is arguing that sex isn't real. Okay, maybe a few fringe groups, but the vast majority of trans people and allies are not. Sex is real but it certainly isn't everything, and it isn't as easily definable as people think it is. Let me ask you this. Is a trans woman who has been on estrogen for years, who has breasts, soft features, and a vagina really a "biological male" to you? Because one of the biggest problems with these arguments is that people act like trans people don't, y'know, tran…

First of all, I'm sorry for everything you've gone through. Nobody deserves that. What's interesting about your post is that I feel the exact same way about women. Take away the first two paragraphs about sexual assault, and I could have written this with the roles reversed, word for word. Women take their anger out on me constantly.

It's a defense mechanism. They don't want to be lumped in with men who are seen as toxic and oppressive, especially in the eyes of their female friends, so instead they distinguish themselves by saying "Oh that's not me, I'm over here with the girls! You're thinking of the straight cis men. Haha, aren't they pathetic with their fragile masculinity and male tears?" When women throw other women under the bus, it's seen as internalized misogyny and frowned upon by feminists. But when men throw othe…

This is important. Feminists will point to the ever-villainous "other men" as the reason more men don't come out as bisexual. And while, sure, homophobia and biphobia from every direction is a factor, I think this is a big one. If you come out as bi, your dating pool is now mostly gay and bi men, which is a much smaller dating pool. Straight women often just won't consider you anymore due to their own biphobia and insecurity. Men basically only have the choice of being perceived as straight or g…

I don't think women's fears are totally irrational. Please hear me out before downvoting. 1 in 6 women has been the target of a rape or attempted rape. That's a pretty high number when you're talking about something so terrible. The number is also a lot higher when you broaden "rape" to "sexual assault". It's understandable, in my opinion, for women to have some fears. However, I believe what's irrational is their belief that they are, in general, less safe at night than men. Men make up the maj…

This is what bothers me, though. Supporting men's issues shouldn't mean abandoning women's issues. Supporting women's issues shouldn't mean ignoring men's issues. Gendered issues as a whole need to be taken seriously. The sooner we can stop this childish competition between the sexes and actually focus on the ways in which gender roles and sexism harm us all, the sooner we can actually make progress.

I agree with this. What's frustrating, though, is that it seems like the loudest and most prevalent voices in the feminist community are the sexist ones who hold double standards against men and really don't advocate for men's issues.

And even if they're not the majority of Feminists, the majority of Feminists refuse to call them out for their toxic feminism, and then get …

Well, yeah, Feminists have been trying for years to monopolize gender equality. They straight up lie by saying "Do you believe that women should have equal rights to men? Then you're a feminist!" as though feminist theory were not an incredibly specific ideology with thousands of books written on the subject. You can't say you're pro-gender equality or egalitarian without a feminist insisting that you're not really either of those things unless you call yourself a feminist. That's one of the thi…

What gave you the impression that men, at any point in history including now, have had bodily autonomy Did I ever say that? How does my pointing out that women don't have bodily autonomy imply anything about men's bodily autonomy? My point was that we shouldn't be pretending that either gender has it. The very first thing I said was that I agree with this post- men and women should have equal rights to not have a child.

I really don't understand why I'm getting downvoted. Surely nobody can disagree that women still don't get complete choice over their bodies, especially after the fall of Roe v Wade.

I agree with you that this is how it should be. I think part of the reason it's not is because women have never had complete choice over their bodies, and even less so now (in the US). Abortion has always come with restrictions, road blocks, and price tags that have always made it inaccessible to many. I think that some people just have a hard time thinking about men having complete choice because it would only make sense when women also have complete choice, and we are unfortunately getting far…

When the argument made against men is "but you don't know how hard it is to be female," being validated by someone who can actually make that comparison is incredibly valuable.

They've long since started actually, and they employ many of the same stereotypes that white supremacists have weaponized against Black men for over a century. That's the point I'm making. They also straight up use black men as pawns in their arguments.

Has it occurred to you that so many people are trying to argue because you phrased your comment terribly? You can't just say something broad like "pedos are being accepted into the LGBT+ community" with the assumption that everyone understands you're talking about a very specific group of people who are not part of the LGBT+ community. You are the one who is getting emotional with your responses. You're too angry about being misunderstood to admit that you just phrased something poorly.

What really gets me is the victim blaming. Women get to complain about "society" causing problems even though they make up half of society. But if we try to talk about how lonely it is to be male, how we struggle to find the same close companionships or struggle to live up to expectations, it's always suggested that we did this to ourselves.

The funny thing is that "gender doesn't exist/gender is a social construct" is literally terf rhetoric. They think that gender doesn't exist, only sex, so people who transition are just being sexist and want to fit into certain gender roles.

why do I hear so, so many stories of gay men being left by their bisexual partners? Might be your personal circle. I, personally, haven't heard of any, but personal experiences are not data. I've heard of a lot of gay guys cheating on each other, but I don't think that makes it rational to not want to date gay men claiming that they're more likely to cheat.

I can understand having insecurities in any relationship, including a relationship with a bisexual person, but you have to own up to them as your insecurities rather than painting them as logical and reasonable. There is always going to be another type of person that somebody could leave you for- somebody younger, more successful, more interested in a family, etc. Gender is not the only factor.

putting themselves in a horrible position This comes off as a bit rude tbh. It implies that being trans is a choice. Better wording would be, "I think trans men are in a horrible position with all the drawbacks..." I can assure you that most of us would give anything to have been born cis, but this is the hand of cards we were dealt.

I do think sexual assault survivors (of both genders) need to be taken more seriously than they have been in the past, but saying "believe ALL women" actually dehumanizes women in a way by assuming that they can't be assholes who make shit up, just like everybody else.

Testosterone doesn't masculinize a feminine face If a trans man... has a soft small face, testosterone cannot change that either. This is factually untrue. Doctors disagree with you. Of course male puberty will masculinize a face just like it masculinizes the small, feminine faces of children when they hit puberty. Maybe we won't all grow a killer jawline, but plenty of cis guys don't have that either. We grow adam's apples, facial hair, and all the rest that comes with male puberty. You have no…

Trans man here, and that's not true at all. Almost every trans man will pass 100% eventually, because the effects of testosterone are much more noticeable than the effects of estrogen. Our voices drop, our faces and fat distribution masculinize, and we get hairy. Most of the time we just end up looking like regular guys who are a bit short. It's a lot easier to masculinize than to feminize. If a trans woman is six feet tall, has broad shoulders, has a thick jawline, etc., estrogen won't change t…

Guilt. Men have been told that we are oppressors for years and more recently have been told that every man is part of the problem.

It has become pretty much accepted in common leftist culture that the only way for a man to be good or to redeem himself is to admit that his entire gender is problematic including himself, and to stand behind women no matter what.

So again, this has never really been a female-dominated field.

That's what I hate about the feminist ideology (and MRA ideology). There always has to be someone who has it worse. For feminists, everything leads back to female oppression and misogyny, and that mindset prevents feminists from taking male problems seriously no matter how much they swear they do. If you can't acknowledge the hardships on both sides without turning it into a competition over who has it worse, then you're not really fighting for equality. Gender roles are a prison for everyone.

Hey I agree with this but I don't think this post implied anything about sex work or porn being bad, or that all sex workers are female. I think it's just that dating a sex worker will ever be seen as totally "normal" because most people don't want their partners having sex with other people, and it's their right to be monogamous. End the stigma, sure, because people can do whatever they want. But if someone doesn't want to date a sex worker it doesn't make them a bad person.

So one group doesn't have the right to be frustrated at a lack of representation just because another group is also lacking representation?

Gender is not determined by a self-perception that you can "flip at any moment." To get your legal gender marker changed almost everywhere, you have to prove that you have started transitioning. You have to provide a letter from a gender therapist, or you have to have been living as that gender for a year or more, or you have to have started medical transition. Do you really think a lot of men are going to start transitioning to female just for tax breaks? This isn't just a box you can check on …

Listen, I am 100% as pro-choice as it gets. I think women should have more control of their bodies when it comes to abortions, sterilization, hysterectomies, etc. But proposing a bogus bill just to make a point is so fucking stupid, and a waste of everyone's time. Nobody is going to change their views on women's rights because of this. Besides, it's a false equivalence; women aren't forced to take birth control or get mandatory surgeries. It's just so childish to propose a ridiculous violation o…

Have friends from different walks of life with varying opinions. Try to get a healthy dose of outside views, and seriously consider them. Never be afraid to let your views change. I'll know that I've taken on an unhealthy view the second I start to think that anyone has it easy. This is the issue with many people who sling around the word "privilege" and act like we cannot reach equality until everyone admits that one side has it so much worse. The truth usually lies in the middle. Try to have e…

Most of the very sexist men I have met have had abusive mothers or family members. They have trouble not having preconceived notions about women because the women in their life were awful. Women who grow up having issues with men because of their "daddy issues" generally receive sympathy, but when the same thing happens to men: silence. 50% of people are women. Women play a very large role in socializing children. Yet they never seem to catch any of the blame for enforcing gender stereotypes or …

The biggest problem I personally have with the feminist "Patriarchy" argument is how it's essentially an unproved hypothesis that is treated as an indisputable fact by feminists. This is one of the biggest reasons I no longer consider myself a feminist. So much of what I hear is just unproven theory, but if you disagree with it, you're shamed and considered wrong and just "not woke" without discussion. A lot of feminists I've known will tell people "Feminism is defined as the idea/movement that …

I don't think I could handle that level of anxiety. I need someone to balance me out.

I am always one to recognize gender inequalities throughout history, and even those that continue today, but when a big chunk of the population is blaming everything from societal statistics to social norms on "the patriarchy," I am really confused as to why more people aren't labeling feminists "conspiracy theorists."

Oh come on guys, this is a stretch. She obviously isn't saying we exist because of menstruation alone. Some of y'all just want to be offended by stuff as much as feminists do.

Don't you think this is kind of sexist? Men don't have a higher propensity to do things in general, we just have a higher propensity to do different things than women. Men have a higher propensity to commit violence because we are the ones designed to fight, hunt, and defend.

Some people like to compare gender dysphoria to that mental illness where people feel, for example, that they should not have legs and want to cut them off. I think it's actually closer to phantom limb syndrome. The brain is just doing what it is supposed to do, acknowledging that something is supposed to be there. Both trans people and amputees /know/ that the limb is gone or what their biological sex truly is; there is no delusion. Nobody would try to claim that somebody with phantom limb synd…

If you look into it you'll actually find that being trans is a medical condition, not an ~identity~ and not a mental illness. The current theory is that it is caused by abnormal hormone exposures in the womb. Studies have shown that when trans men get brain scans, the patterns look more like those of males than females. So basically as a fetus somebody's brain developed to be a certain gender/sex, while their body went in the opposite direction. I know it's really easy to dismiss because so many…

So you can generalize the male responses you get, but I can't generalize the feminist interactions I have had. I know some feminists address male issues, but not enough do unless they are fighting some accusation, or blaming men for our own issues as well. Maybe you should be angry at the so-called feminists who are misrepresenting you. Pointing out that males have always been forced to fight and die for our country is not "overshadowing" the issues that women face when they join the military.

I agree that there has definitely been misogyny posted on this sub, and that's a problem, but I don't think this post is one of them. It's just referencing the fact that many feminists point out all the privileges that males have without acknowledging many of the disadvantages. Most feminists I have met, when asked about gender equality in the draft, will tell you that they believe the draft needs to be abolished entirely, but they have made no effort or public outcry with that the way they have…

Also a woman should get out of a ticket for sobbing. So much for feminism.

I 100% think it's stupid for anyone to get upset about the toilet seat. But if both sides are getting petty about it, I would point out that it makes the most sense for the seat to be left down because it is used that way the majority of the time. Women need the seat down for pee and for poop, and men need the seat down to poop. But I have no idea who actually gets into fights over this. As long as people aren't pissing on the seat, I don't care whether it's left up or down.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
