That's my point - it's just a meme. I'm not offended, I'm underwhelmed. I'd like to see this become a popular place for good quality information and thoughtful discussions, not just another repository for angry memes.

While you have good points, the whole concept of "privilege" engenders divisiveness and hate based on identity groups. It frames people who do not experience negative social stigmas as receiving an unearned benefit, rather than as simply being the default of how society should treat a person. I'm a white, heterosexual male. Do you think that the way society treats me should be re-examined, and my "privilege" should be taken away? Or do you think that we need to treat people from other demographi…

Trans men are men, too. They suffer from the same sexism that non-trans men do. The Men's Rights Movement is not exactly in a position to be shooing away supporters.

Counter argument: Suicide is often a cry for help. Men use more lethal methods because they know there is no help. Women don't want to mess up their appearance because they might actually get help.

I don't know that privatizing the Army would fix this. The government still holds the purse strings. I'm usually in favor of privatization, but it doesn't work for some things. Prisons, for instance, are terrible to privatize. Allowing corporations to profit off of incarcerations is a bad move.

Yes. There's a Men's Line too. The Men's Line is for: Men who are using violence in their relationships Men who are experiencing domestic and family violence Others seeking support for men using or experiencing domestic and family violence The Women's Line contains no similar support for women using violence, or "others" seeking support for women using violence. So women have TWO lines they can call, unless they're lesbians, but no one to call if they are the ones committing the violence.

No, it's actually trans people in general who are extremely prone to suicide. Research in this area is extremely lacking, so there isn't any data that would show rates of suicide for those who transition vs those who can't. However, the highest rate is among teens, so it would be safe to assume that a large factor in that would be lack of family support for transitioning. From a purely anecdotal standpoint, I will say that my son seems much happier, calmer, and more confident since I took an act…

Because we still don't know what it means to be a certain gender. We know that men and women behave differently. How much of that is sociological, and how much is biological? Different factors influence the developing of the mind and body. So what happens when the body develops as one sex, and the mind develops as the opposite gender? Aside from the science, we know that there is a small, but not insignificant, amount of people who suffer from gender dysphoria. We know that drugs don't help them…

This is exactly right. However, it does go a little deeper. Women are violent when there is little risk to themselves. A violent man will will be physically aggressive to men who are equal to him. A violent women will only be physically aggresive with much weaker targets. If the target shows any hope of fighting back, a violent woman will usually turn to social violence, or she'll manipulate a man to do violence on her behalf (false rape claims are an excellent example).

This picture has been around awhile, and I read once that it was at a private club that catered to men who enjoy being humiliated, as a fetish thing.

My son doesn't think he's someone else. He knows his name, he knows his body is female. The issue is that his neurological gender doesn't match his biological sex. This causes significant distress and anxiety for him. Transitioning relieves that distress, and it's the only treatment that works. It's as simple as that.

I think you're a little confused. That's understandable, because there's a lot of bad information out there. "Gender dysphoria" was previously classified as a disorder, not a mental illness. It was removed from disorder status in May of this year. Some do argue that it shouldn't have been. Either way, whether you consider it a disorder or not, people affected by it still need treatment. Drugs and/or therapy has been tried for decades, and had never shown any evidence of being effective. There ha…

You're right, transitioning doesn't fix the issue. That's why it's called a treatment and not a cure. My son will always have issues with dysphoria, but with transitioning he can at least have a normal life. Suicide rates before vs after transition haven't been studied, so there's no real science to go on there. In that area, I can only go by what I see, and my son is much happier, more confident, and seems much more comfortable now that he's presenting as male. While I do miss my little girl, I…

The first thing I did when my son came out to me was get him to a therapist. I assure you, the last I wanted to do was make things worse.

I learned that gender-affirming therapy has been tried for decades, and has never produced any reliable results. I learned that almost half of teens with gender dysphoria will attempt suici…

No, don't open up to any women. There is no "right type" of woman that a man can be vulnerable with. There are basically three reactions you can get from a woman by showing them weakness: They didn't care before and don't care now. They cared before, but now your weakness has made you unattractive and a burden. They care about you, but don't know how to deal with your pain. Your weakness just stresses them out and now there's TWO people stressing over your problems. Women can either have no empa…

I didn't get it wrong. Trans people are not disconnected from reality. They know their biological sex doesn't correspond to what's in their head. They're completely aware of what genitals they have. However, what's in their head doesn't match. Having a mismatch between what's in your head and your body type is called gender dysphoria, and it's not a psychosis. People suffering from gender dysphoria have been trying for decades to change what's in their heads to match their bodies. None of those …

Transistioning is not insanity. Transistioning is the only effective way to treat the psychological distress of gender dysphoria. Not all trans people choose to have surgery. But if they do, it is entirely within their rights to do so. In regards to children, transitioning is a touchy subject. You can be supportive of trans people without supporting transitioning young children.

I think a law like this might have the effect you're talking about for a very small number of cases, but a larger effect for more of them. For every 1 case where it prevents a false accuser from coming forth, there will be 5 more cases where the false accusation never happened in the first place.

A child would need a lot of time with a "paternal figure" to even come close to the influences of an actual father in the home.

I agree with you regarding competing in the sports arena. People who are in mid-transformation will obviously have unfair physical advantages when it comes to sports. The sports arena needs to handle that from their perspective, in a way that's both sensitive to trans people and fair for non-trans people. However, from a social perspective, that distinction has no use to us. We don't know what anybody's chromosome makeup is, because few people get that test done. I don't need to know what's betw…

The phrase "toxic masculinity" originally meant "toxic expressions of masculinity". Unfortunately the intersectional/gender warrior crowd has overused and misapplied the term so much that people think there are actually two kinds of masculinity - regular and toxic, rather than there being an entire spectrum of masculinity expressions ranging from negative to positive, just like femininity. I don't mind the term "positive masculinity", because at least it reminds people that such a thing exists.

I don't think it's an intentional message. If you ask people outright, "Do you think men's lives are worth more, the same, or less than women's lives", 99.9% will answer "the same". It's more an attitude that's present in our culture, a fundamental belief that's shown more in subtle ways. Think of when children grow up. Johnny skins his knee on the playground, and he starts to cry. He's told, "Suck it up, be a big boy, stop crying". Little Susie does the same, and she cries the same, but she is …

The segregation in the Army is about to get worse. The Physical Fitness Test, previously the same for all MOS's, but graded separately by gender and on a curve for age, is about to change. The new test will be scored equally across age and gender, but will step the passing threshold up based on physical requirements of the MOS. That means women are going to gravitate toward the less intense jobs, even more than they do now.

That's not always an easy decision, especially when there is shared property and/or children involved.

The reason you've never heard the term "toxic femininity" is because when the phenomenon occurs with women they call it "internalized misogyny". It's important to emphasize victimhood when talking about women, and emphasize responsibility when talking about men.

But the term 'internalized misogyny' is actually used. I mean, they could call that 'toxic femininity' instead, but that would imply that women were at least partly responsible for it.

The OP brings up a good point though. If an adult man has sex with a 16 year old girl, it doesn't matter if she told him she was 18. It doesn't even matter if she shows him a fake ID, and he has every reason to believe she is 18. He will still go to jail for statutory rape.

I absolutely agree. We just have to be careful not to become hyper-aware and thin-skinned about it. Men typical won't see themselves as victims, even when they are. But going too far in the other direction, by developing a victim mentality, isn't good either. I like to apply the "gender reversal" standard to situations.

I totally get where you're coming from. However, this kind of statement associates men with pedophiles, and I think that will backfire. Also, it's not quite the same because the definition of pedophile is "someone sexually attracted to children", meaning that they all have the urge (even if many never act on it). So it implies that you'd be trying to teach men to go against their natural urge to rape. Also, women can commit rape, and men can be raped. I like to compare it to "teach minorities no…

To me, the whole idea that there is even a name for "I wanna get laid but I can't" is pretty disturbing. I think it puts way too much emphasis on sex as some kind of lofty goal.

Thankfully, I've never had to throw a grenade in a situation where it would really count. As a medic, if I'm throwing live grenades anywhere, the situation is super fucked. :)

When did the throwing actually become part of the qualification? I went through in 2006, and the qualification was based on identification and SOP. We practiced throwing, but it wasn't graded. Hell, my shitty throw from the supine position would've killed me and my battle buddy.

Meanwhile, men still can't wear sleeveless shirts, shorts, or open toed shoes as "business casual" attire, while women can.

Because she didn't go to jail for baptizing the kid, she went to jail for contempt of court. Still, she probably thought the judge wouldn't lock her up for disobeying (in her mind) an unjust order in such a trifling way. So she learned a lesson that non-custodial fathers have been learning for years - you don't disobey the judge, no matter how right you are (or think you are).

Men are caretakers of their children at the whim of the mothers and the state. Once you have a mother decide to use the power of the state to remove you from your children's lives, you see just how tenuous your claim to them really is.

Typically feminists are long on talking about true equality, but short on actually promoting it. You'll often see them express the conflicting ideas that "If men want something done to help them, they should have their own movement", and then "Men don't need their own movement, because feminists fight for their rights too". Then Cassie Jaye releases "The Red Pill" and feminists boycott her.

I'm sorry you're receiving so much hostility here. If what you say is true, then I certainly appreciate it. I can't excuse the hostility, but I will say that the reason it exists is that true egalitarian feminists are rare, and egalitarian university groups even more so. To many of us here, what you're saying sounds like, "My neo-nazi group volunteers their time to help clean and restore synagogues, and we regularly donate to the Holocaust Museum". Just like the above example would be hard to be…

Competitiveness is a GREAT thing, in the right context. Competitiveness is what advances civilization, drives improvement, and encourages us to reach our potential. It's one of the best things about masculinity. However, in the "social justice" power struggle, our competiveness is hurting us. In our strive to be the best, we try to pull down what we see as inferior, so that the superior can rise to the top. This works great for species evolution, for product develop, for team leadership in cutth…

I absolutely agree with you on the "gender is a social construct" thing. They aren't even consistent about it - if gender is only a social construct, then how could someone be "born as the wrong gender", or be "gender fluid"? However, he said "beta CUCKS" (cuck is short for cuckold - a man who's wife has sex with other people), not beta BUCKS. And, as others have pointed out, if we expect Men's Rights to gain traction, we need to stop referring to other men with juvenile insults like "cuck" or "…

Oh, so you're not looking to have an actual conversation, you're just looking to run around and insult people. Well, I see it's obvious who the immature one is here (hint: it's not me). I sincerely hope you find some maturity and go on to have a successful relationship some day. Have a good night.

Is grabbing someone's genitals a sexual act? If not, then Trump's "grab 'em by the pussy" is no problem. If it is, then it seems pretty logical to expect that someone grabbing your genitals is attempting to initiate sex. So which is it?

You're absolutely right. While I don't necessarily agree with the details of your comment, I completely agree with the general point. Instead of calling other men "beta cucks" or whatever, we need to be focusing on why the behavior of these men is damaging for us all. That's why I made my initial comment in the first place.

Probably because men are genetically predisposed to competitiveness, and groups have a tendency to create jargon within their own group. Also the Men's Rights movement is still in its infancy, and hasn't yet quite found its footing in regards to specifying grievances and goals. There's a lot of repressed anger and hurt in these circles, and men are not accustomed to talking about such things in ways that effectively communicate our issues. We're socially conditioned to ignore our own injuries, p…

I want to upvote this, but the term "beta cucks" is grating. It's as bad as "military-industrial complex", "incel", or "hetero-cis". I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just pointing out that the term is very off-putting for people in the mainstream, and might prevent someone from considering this line of thinking, when they would otherwise be open to it.

Apparently this kind of thing "raises awareness". I can see the long term benefits for it. I may not have the time or money to spend, but someone else might. Keeping the issue in the public eye increases the chances that the someone with money and time to contribute will choose that cause. Having said that, yeah that shit IS annoying, shallow, and pointless half the time.

I understand your frustration. However, non-white males need this kind of positive message most of all, as their communities generally suffer from fatherhood issues to a greater degree. Also, having a non-white father depicted here doesn't exclude white fathers from the message.
