They just blame all that on patriarchy, thus absolving them of any responsibility for their own actions and choices.

I try not to fall into generalized thinking, but some stereotypes are true. Women, from my experience, engage in petty gossip at work far more than men. BUT in all fairness, I've worked jobs where men could be just as petty with gossip too. But there is a double but here - the gossipy men would usually bitch and moan about the higher ups, the bosses, the job itself - while the women tended to gossip about co-workers and each other.

This is just another rung on the ladder of: "So much of feminism is really just not-even-that-thinly-veiled gender essentialism." So much of feminist talking points are just ways of saying "Women are inherently better people than men." They speak of men and women as different species. On face vale you can see why this sentiment is appealing to people: modern governance is mostly ran by men, therefore women would be better." But when you actually look beneath the platitude, you quickly realize ju…

A cold, hard truth that society desperately needs to understand is that women sexually harass as much as men do. And we have normalized to such a degree it's invisible. The only thing that can shift the tide is more men (and women) speaking up about their abuse and harassment at the hands of women.

I hate to generalize, but yes, I've also known more than one woman who has had fairly stereotypical man-hating views, but still loves sex. So in these cases, they like the dick, but hate the man. Entirely anecdotal, I know - but it a phenomenon I have witnessed.

I don't want to tell you how to feel about your history here, but what you are describing is, in no uncertain terms, multiple instances of rape and sexual assault. And my heart breaks that so many men experience these things and we have no safe outlet for it but spaces like this that are themselves niche and ostracized from wider discourse. If a woman was recounting these experiences, nobody would be saying anything other than that she was raped. If you don't see it as such, I don't want to forc…

A little crass, but yes. A lot of my friends in life have mostly been pretty sexually liberated. And for straight women who GENUINELY like sex, they will never just default to a toy as a "better" alternative. They want the human to human interaction. They want to have sex with men, not a toy.

The more these types of people adopt these horrible mindsets, the more it becomes obvious it really is no deeper than "man bad, woman good." They really don't think about it any deeper than that. Notice how the extreme misandry seems to have really infesting zoomers?

Yes, that's the whole thing - it never translates to the real world. I should have specified they usually use this kind of metric from other men online or famous people - like influencers or musicians, etc. The type of man they lionize online they will ignore wholesale in daily life.

I envy your "not online-ness" regarding this, lol. For years now the popular thing to lionize in men are men who are the most unthreatening, "unproblematic" dudes out there - usually more effeminate (not that there is anything wrong with that) with a distinct lack of anything that can be attributed to stereotypes of masculinity. Basically, a more gender neutral/effeminate male feminist are the only "approved" men online.

This a dangerous slippery slope my friend. If you find yourself in an apathetic state of mind right now because gender discourse is so fucked, I get it. But you gotta put principle above the personal. You should care about women's rights, if not the discourse itself, but the bare necessity or it if only because if we as a society move backwards taking away rights from one group, other groups are bound to follow.

There is no reason porn has to be a special case. You can teach it like any other form of mainstream entertainment. "This is for show, for fun. It's for adults to enjoy. It's not real life or meant to show what real sex and intimacy is like." Am I crazy? It seems like this stuff was inherent in even just semi-normal development and child raising.

But I also love hanging out with friends and shooting the shit, going for a walk at my local park, etc. I have healthy, real-life relationships. A lot of people today do not.

Good points until you went the "porn and videogames bad" route. It's conservative brainrot. These are not the problem. The society that forces young people, specifically boys and men, into these areas of solace and escapism to such a degree that they all but lack a genuine social life are the problem. If society met people's needs, they wouldn't get lost in videogames, AI chatbots, and porn.

My whole ethos is: being a leftist/progressive/etc is about principle, not performance. My principles happen to align with the left to far left side of politics. I see no reason why feminism needs to be a factor in that. Just because it has positioned itself as a synonym for leftism, doesn't mean it is. Feminism is not, nor should be it be treated as the final word of equality. I don't care how conflated feminism is with leftism...doesn't mean it's valid.

Can't add anything other than the that the notion that a women is bestowing some great honor and gift to a man for allowing him to be intimate with her is far from new, sadly. Despite all of the strides to break down gender norms and expectations, it seems that for men, gender norms are more restrictive than ever but now with the added pressures of modern corpo-feminist brainwashing.

Most female popstars are to some degree misandrist. It's just how it is. The question is - who is talented enough for you personally that their sexism doesn't bother you?

Yea, I don't have anything to add. Women have more room in society to "just be." Or at least there is more open discussion of allowing women to "just be" without needing to perform or meet some restrictive standard of womanhood. Men are not afforded such grace.

While I do like the idea of not making feminism the whole target, it...kinda has to be a big damn target though? Because feminism has entwined itself so firmly into broader leftist/progressive ideology and talking points feminism is largely seen AS leftism. Like, to the average lefty/progressive/liberal the notion of being a lefty/progressive/liberal does not compute with NOT being a feminist. Feminism has positioned itself AS leftism, progressivism, and liberalism.

Exactly, on the left, empathy is dictated by identity. It's the monstrous side of intersectionality. I don't think the base idea of intersectionality is at all unreasonable, but it's created such an insane amount of people who literally reserve their sympathy, empathy, and advocacy for people that accrue the most oppressed check marks on a spreadsheet.

Yea, I've never had attachment or concrete ideas/ideals on what a "real" man is or should be or how I fit into it. I'm a cishet man. Born male, raised male, "feel" male, etc. I present "traditionally" male and engage in some but not nearly all activities or interests associated with men. But when it comes masculinity?

I really don't want this to sound like I'm invalidating bi identity, but from anecdotal experience I've met far more women who identify as bi than men, and ALL of them seem to treat relationships with women as a sort of "treat" or "break" from men, and their longer and more serious relationships are always with men. In essence, they treat women as a booty call. I would really like to reiterate that I am NOT trying to invalidate bisexuality nor am I trying to make the argument many bi people face…

To be utterly fair. Men often ARE misandrists, or spew misandrist rhetoric. But note that male on male misandry is painted as another way in which men are somehow inherently flawed and "bad," whereas when feminists talk about "internalized misognyny" it is something they are a victim of, and it is spoken of with empathy and even sympathy. Men holding misandrist opinions is due to men just being inherently shitty cuz men. Women holding misogynistic opinions is due to, you guessed it, also men.

I know this is basically feminism in reverse - "good men are feminists and speak out" kinda stuff...but men are so thoroughly on the backfoot here that, unfortunately, other groups speaking up with us (not FOR us) is des…

Queer/inclusive fiction isn't new. Literature has a vast and long history of queer exploration in fiction and even non-fiction.

It's simple. When it comes to gendered issues, only women are taken seriously. When it comes to sexism, only misogyny is taken seriously.

The narrative is so transparent at this point. It really is just a pathological aversion to any kind of accountability. Isn't it funny how, even when people DO talk about women/a woman behaving badly it's treated as either being behavior existing in a vacuum, or they are treated with more inherent empathy for behav…

I think it's irresponsible and rather ideologically captured to say that misandry = 47. Too many people DIDN'T vote at all for the blame to laid on one cause. I will freely admit that it does indeed play a part, but one of the main reasons of THE reason? No. There are far too many factors, far too much nuance in all kinds areas that led to the oligarch in chief getting a 2nd term. Decades of a failed education system, our corporately owned and cowardly mainstream media that even at it's most "le…

I watched the video, and don't really disagree with much of what she said. I've outright rejected "rape culture" as a concept since it first gained ground in the discourse. And I still do. But this video makes one of the more balanced nuanced explanations of it I've heard. I just don't think complex societal issues are serviced well with the labels they are often tagged with. How do you label something with such nuance? I'm not sure, but "rape culture" ain't it.

Edit: And it seems that a lot of feckless lib types and idpol captured leftists are still on the "this is all men's fault" train and refusing to acknowledge how women voted.

It just goes to show how much of feminist and (alleged) progressive thought is just female privilege and supremacy. Feminists hate men so much they are now mask-off throwing a part of the LGBTQ+ community under the bus by virtue of their identity. Edit: Also, this is just another notch in the belt of "trans misogyny is more rooted in hatred of men, actually" that people REFUSE to acknowledge. People, terfs, right wingers, etc don't hate trans women because they hate women. They hate trans women …

Women being bi-phobic towards men is so depressingly common. You ever want to see REAL sexual objectification? Just listen to how straight women fetishize men sleeping with men. But when asked if they'd date a bi-man? 98% of them say he'll no. It's objectification of the purest sense. They'll use you for their own sexual fantasies.

"Why are men leaning right!!!!????" Gee, maybe because they cant even exist in public spaces without being told by fuckin' signage they are oppressing people by virtue of their existence? And yes, all transphobia (against trans women) is misandry. And considering transphobia is at a fever pitch right now in the media, it's extra disappointing the progressives haven't caught on yet. Because recognizing it as such would mean recognizing their own blindspots and giving an inch to the "enemy" that i…

Maybe this is ignorant to say - I guess you could call me a class reductionist.

These people are just so blind. "Romantasy" as it's dubbed, is every bit the sexist power fantasy male authored genre fiction is accused of being (if if ever was). If not more so, because the trends of these newer books follow stereotypes and tropes so closely they're all basically the same book. The female heroes are always just shy of perfect. The male love interests are basically "unproblematic kings" or "safe dangerous" with the bodies of marble that can fuck like nobody's business. I won't …

And notice how it's only ever a problem when men like dark and villainous characters? Fandoms are FULL of women who adore and stan villains, "problematic" characters, and toxic relationship dynamics. Not because they condone or endorse such people and behavior irl (but some of them indeed, do) - but because it's FUN AND INTERESTING to engage in on the level of it being ENTERTAINMENT. It's such easy to follow, grade school level logic. Yet progressive scolds simply don't get it.

I love how the first thing every single one of you people do is bring up the UK trial as a gotcha. It just goes to show you literally have no clue what the UK trial was actually about. The trial wasn't about proving Depp was an abuser, it was about the Sun having the right to publish the words of their sources under the assumption of belief. The UK trial wasn't about heard winning. It was about the publication rights of The Sun. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhshYyUul1o&ab_channel=LostBeyondPl…

You really think money protects a man from being falsely accused? BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh you in the in pro-Depp camp for a long time? Well, I was in the "yea, guess Depp is a monster" camp for a long time. I mean, like you said. He's insanely rich. He's famous. Rich and famous people, especially in Hollywood, are always outted as monsters in some way. So I "believed all women" in this case for a long time. So what changed?

By that logic anyone into augmenting their appearance in any way is insecure. I hate to throw out these kind of terms, especially when discussing misandry...but…

The entire discourse around make-up is so....messy as fuck. Most men don't give a shit. I like women with or without make-up. I really couldn't care less. The way libfems act like the weird relationship women have with make-up is because of men is just...a fuckin' lie.

No, it's not a huge mistake because its a harsh reality that men of color have to contend with in these situations. Ask any black man about walking around in the city when they pass a white woman. It's not about whether the outcome WOULD have been him being arrested for being a brown man who physically pushed a white woman away from him for her assaulting him. It's about the fact that it IS a possibility and that is something men in these situations work through in their head. Men are ALWAYS fli…

When a man experiences harassment and dehumanization so upfront and casual by a woman, it's a shock to the system because it totally destroys everything about how we (men) have be programmed to feel and behave regarding our treatment of women.

I think it hits different because racism, while still sadly prevalent in society, has been and is still actively pushed back on and fought in the mainstream. Racists know racism is unpopular.

Let's not play the tired No True Scotsmen game here. Broadly speaking, of course feminists aren't a monolith. But enough self identified feminists over a long enough period of time have shown their true colors. So yes, they're feminists. And lets not whitewash past feminism as somehow more pure. Feminism from the very beginning was deeply rooted in supremacist ideology and was deeply racist. Even (some) feminists are smart enough to acknowledge the racism roots of feminism.

Shocked it took so long to find this comment. Agreed. Especially that last sentence. All this bluster about "its not a problem they're consenting adults" rapidly shuts down when son or daughter brings home a date you went to HS with. It might be a more "conservative" train of thought on our parts, but imo there just isn't any reason a 45, 50yo needs to be dating someone half or even less their age. Are there exceptions? Sure. There are exceptions to everything. But in general? Naaah. You're 50. …

I'm in my mid 30s and can barely stand being around people in their mid 20s. Not because I'm on such a higher level and look down on them, but simply because we can only relate to each other so much.

We should have all been more alert when things like "mansplaining" and "manspreading" become like, actual serious discourse about how broken men and how women are "victims" of it. It's all lead to the bald-faced misandry that is so in right now. Granted, misandry and performative feminism are not new. But the proliferation of it in the internet age has made it worse.

Yea, once you realize how prevalent finding a sympathetic angle to a woman's atrocities is compared to a man...it blows your mind.

Whereas male monsters aren't given as nuanced a take.

Misandry is normalized. So normalized many don't think it's a real thing. And because it's so normalized it's flagrantly bandied about all over social media to cheers, encouragement, and comradery.

It's unfortunately an uncomfortable discussion, but one that needs to be had. I believe that transwomen should indeed be allowed to compete in sports. BUT they have to be far enough along in their transition to where their biological advantages won't present an issue. If anything, you're only doing the trans community more harm by plugging your…

But somehow giving birth to a female child wouldn't ruin your body? Oh yea, you can't make a genital mutilation joke about a female child because that's horribly misogynist and gross. But one about a male child? Well, that's fine! We can toss those kinds of jokes out like candy on Halloween!

The patriarchy doesn't exist. And if it did, it failed to do what it's commonly defined as: a societal system created and upheld by men for men. If this system we're under is meant to privilege men in large and small ways...it's a shitty fucking system because, well, we all know why. It's not patriarchy. It's oligarchy. Always has been.

Quite literally almost anything men do will be called misogyny online.

While you make a good point for nuance, you're citing instances relegated to within those communities. Hating and vilifying men, as a group, is mainstream.

Misandry is just like misogyny. It can be overtly hateful and disgusting and more "passive" and "benevolent."

Men, from both a liberal side and conservative side, have been taught to treat women extra special by virtue of their gender and gender alone.

The sad truth is, a lot of women who say they want sensitive, emotional men REALLY mean that want men that THEY feel comfortable unburdening all of their stress and problems onto so they can receive support without resistance.

I do think certain platforms, like Twitch for example, need a LOT stronger rules and regulations about this stuff considering how much of this stuff is just right there for kids to see without even looking. But overall sexualized content online is just not something I personally feel invested in one way or the other.

This is a far too common shut-down tactic feminists use to invalidate and dismiss men's issues. It's often used purely as a deflection tactic. For one thing; ANYONE who isn't a totally oblivious dummy is going to feel uneasy or afraid walking alone at night. But feminists frame it a situation that only affections women, and that women are specifically targeted for random public crime. Which, as well all know, just isn't the case. And these stats have been known for a long, long time. They aren't…

I think it's quite obviously a thing. And I think denying it outright is a little silly imo. But I will say that, like most male-specific terms like this, it should be renamed, because at the end of the day "male privilege" is just another example of highlighting how larger society views men and women along gender-conforming lines. Here's an example feminists love to use as an everyday example of "male privilege" Feeling condescended to at the mechanics while men are assumed to know more about c…

He takes great pains to really deep dive into male loneliness, ostracization, how society is cruel towards men and male pain etc...only to then blame it all on patriarchy. Like everyone else. Granted, his definition and description of patriarchy is more nuanced than most - as he doesn' tuse it as a "men bad, their fault" bludgeon - but he still uses it as a catch-all for the root of the issues men face. And this undermines the painstaking nuance he lays out.

Well, the way I see it is there is nothing wrong with actually decent people focusing on a certain aspect of men's issues over trying to tackle EVERYTHING and leaving their wheelhouse when they may not be the best to leave said wheelhouse. And The Dadvocate is pretty well read and researched on the courts bias against men and fathers, so she does indeed tackle larger issues.

It's no deeper than this: They believe in the oppressor, oppressed dynamic between men and women. They see a world where "men were and are always on top while women are subjugated." So to them, it's literally impossible to be misandrist. And if they do cop to misandry they excuse it as justified. And if they cop to misandry being harmful it's "not THAT harmful, just annoying" while misogyny is deadly.

Perfectly succinct. I'm actually genuinely empathetic to women being brainwashed to fear the outside world to such an extent. Women are taught to internalize the world (men) as an ever-present existential threat to their being simply because they're women. Can't be good on the psyche. And naturally the flip side of this is men internalizing feeling like monsters and threats by virtue of their gender. Also not good on the psyche....

You must be a crazy alt right incel!" Me: "No. Fuck the right. I'm very much not right wing I just think that men today-" Them: "shut up incel! Take you're fragile masculi…

I struggle with my thoughts on the patriarchy. There are more nuanced and layered definitions that make sense that I can almost say "yeah ok. I guess the patriarchy is real" because they don't necessarily run on "men bad their fault" but "society was built on patriarchal terms BY powerful men and everyone is still suffering under it." But there is still the nagging truth of: at the end of the day we're still blaming men for how shitty the world is. It's in the damn word itself. It's a gendered t…

When you stop to think about how absolutist and dogmatic these phrases are, it's actually pretty unsettling. Feminism has turned into the one religion you aren't allowed to criticize due to its corporate and institutional power along with its position as the cure-all for all of societies ills. According to feminism it can end misogyny, racism, LQBTQ+ bigotry, fat phobia, etc. And because feminism aligned with the left, any ill spoken of it is instantly shot down and you're labelled very ugly thi…

Uuumm, no? I'm a man. My definition of respect is treating people with basic human decency. I think tons of other men share this opinion.

This isn't hard. Feminism does not equal women. Feminism does not own the concept of equality despite its best efforts. Feminism, like any other doctrine, is perfectly fine to criticize. The problem only arises out of the institutional power feminism has gained.

Eh, that sub is known to be rather right wing, reactionary, and bitter. While some of these responses have meat the chew on, this is just another overly generalized "women bad" thread on a fairly toxic and genuinely misogynist sub.

Lol what? I couldn't even read past the first paragraph. Imagine telling someone to suppress their basic human impulses. I get the strong sense you're a zoomer considering your puritanical views on sexuality. You literally told someone to suppress their basic sexuality and did EXACTLY what they're talking about - demonizing cishet male sexuality as inherently wrong. It's the most human thing in the world to find other humans attractive. Checking them out is natural. Even fantasizing about sex wi…

Defending an abuser is not a good look for this sub.

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