How the fuck are you mentioning Emmett Till's name with this shit? I swear to god, if you want better advocacy for men, one thing that you could start doing is stop using black people as nothing but tools to draw comparisons with every time. Even worse is when you bring someone like Emmett Till's name and use it in a scenario with a demon like this. F off

Couole of things. None of these types ever seem to personally to a racist person... If every other woman knows a woman who was raped, it would seem that most of these women dont know a rapist either. Further, a little common sense Rape, however many people have proximity to victims, is a crime committed by a minority of men and women. What she is talking about will be rapes that have majority gone unreprorted to authorities. Just speaking to friends. Thats how every other woman knows someone who…

I'll leave this here. As a black male, born and raised in the west, I well versed in the frustration of being made responsible for, and force-represented by the negative actions of fewer than 1% of people who I share an immutable characteristic with, and the subsequent bigotry that follows. Third wave, corporate millennial feminism/feminists dont realise how perfectly their language and actions parallel those of far right racists and fascists.

Take this how in the spirit it is meant... In the same way that MGM is represented by colour, and how thise colours affect the reader and the reaction they have to the information, so the way a long post is written will affect the reader at first glance and affect how they take in the information. You desperately need to break this up into paragraphs. You recognise that how information is presented affects the reader; apply this to your post please. Break it up

I saw the "fancy degree" comment and wanted to say that the closestbthis person has ever got to any kind of degree is a protractor For what its worth, the fact that female teachers grade male students lower for the same work, and punish them harsher for the same behavior as girls is a known fact.

Placing male victims of abuse under Violence Agaimst Women and Girls is the most clown world nonsense i have ever seen in my life.

I think its important to be able to distinguish the movement from individuals following the movement. With that in mind its also important to read what youre responding to, noting that reference was specifically and deliberately made to "intersectional feminism" as a movement and its effects as a movement, and its issues as a movement, rather than targeting individuals within the movement who act well. Any movement or ideology will consist of individuals... Mens rights for example. As a movement…

The problem is often see with Intersectional feminism, is that it recognises the various interscetions of race, culture, economics, etc as they pertain to women, whilst still seeing men as a patriarchal monolith. It is quick to rightly point out the differences in power dynamics of white women compared to non white women, sure, but it still refers to "men" as a group.

Wanting to see them is quite different to coercing someone to show you them when they dont want to and don't consent to. You've focused on the internal desire whilst conveniently ignoring the acting on that desire, which is where the problem lies.

They're not men. They don't frequent ordinary male spaces with ordinary men having ordinary conversations, they don't really know men outside of what other women have told them what men are, they don't like men, and they don't know any men outside of family perhaps. And those opinions of men are given to them through the lens of men being a threat/barrier to success rather than just humans. So all of this combined has this type of woman see men as this kind of caricature comprised of all the wor…

"Be strong so you can take whatever you want" is obvious is it's problems. "Be strong for those who need it" is not the analogous alternative. At best it is a very charitable alternative of it. In reality, the what "be strong for those who need it" means is that masculinity is predicated on being a resource for others. The problem then is with the "those who need it" aspect. Who defines that? Left to the modern left, it becomes whichever group decides that they are oppressed at any given time. T…

52% of white women voters voted Trump. 78% of black male voters voted Harris. These were always going to be the likely turnout. White women voted in favour of trumonfor the 3rd time in a row.

Listen. Kind of off topic but something to carry forward. It's being missed because it relates to black men, but bear it in mind.

I'm a black man in the UK. Expecting men to pay is very much the norm in pretty much every black community. It doesn't have to be very macho at all. The problem is we have white liberal westerners living in white liberal western culture bubbles, and they think that their reality must be reality everywhere else, and that where this isn't the case, it's only because those places are extremes.

It's funny because they say boys are coddled at the same time they say boys aren't socialised properly and are discouraged from showing or valuing emotion. They say girls are neglected whilst complaining that whilst boysbare free to roam, girls are forced to learn social and domestic skills. And then they say they're neglected lol.

Childhood neglect. Boys are left to their own social an emotional devices growing up. Girls are socialised. Then we do this weird thing where we blame men for their parents' failure to recognise boys need love as compete human beings as well, but also call it a male.privilege that girls weren't left to figure things out on their own.

All I remember is every woman and her dog wanted a "strong silent type" when looking for a man. Then came 3rd wave feminism Now we have every woman pretending that never said any of that. Men have always been expected to be silent and listen to a woman's fears, expectations, hopes, dreams, ups, downs, and every aspect of her emotional life. A good man was a man who was her "rock". A man who would remain stoic in the face of her emotional exhibitionism, and this was a very mainstream expectation …

The killer is that there is this widespread urge to deny the existence of misandy. A more nuanced take on its lesser effect institutionally than misogyny is worth discussing.

This doesn't apply to "men". This applies to the specifc subsection of men who are not socially adept, not engaging with society, don't know how to, don't intend to etc. It's why you so easily go from that to incels. Lonely men and incels have crossover but one is not the other and it is dangerous to so easily suggest they are.

This is one I've spoke about myself so this was like reading something straight out of my own head. Another issues is the double bind. A while ago there was the dismissive "get therapy lol" whenever a man spoke about an issue he was facing. If a man then is to speak on the fact that therapy spaces are female dominated and female oriented, he is then blamed for this as a man because men aren't choosing to go into psychological fields as a profession.

I saw that as the types of women who wanted to.uphold some semblance of a "traditional" relationship between the sexes. Specifically where it benefits them. The type who wants to find a man so they can live a life of leisure, he pays the bills etc. I see that a lot.

How can anyone say that the hatred of men doesn't exist? The irony is that the people who say that are the same people who proudly proclaim that they hate men. I think people have forgotten the meaning of words.

One of the most annoying ironies is that we are encouraged to be vulnerable an emotionally open. Fine. Men like to do this with as few people as possible, preferably the persona closest to us. The person closest to us tends to be the only person we've made a choice to spend life with side by side. One's parnter/wife/husband/boyfriend/girlfriend.

Two things at play. Women in general are a little more socially savvy so they're able to talk and socialise their way around their deep held racism.

If there's any validity in it, it is to do with our perception of competence, rather than any concerted effort to include men and exclude women. We vote for our leaders, our councillors, etc and if there's any argument to be made about this disparity it's to do with how our unconscioys biases surrounding perceived competence affects how we vote. Beyond that, and in my mind far more pertinent, is the fact that one of the main gender expectations pushed on men is the need to prove himself competen…

Human beings are animals. Sometimes animals are violent. Some of us are more violent and controlling than others. Some can control it. Others less so. Violence need not be a symptom of patriarchy.

I disagree entirely with your reasoning here. The premise I agree with, but then there's this huge logical leap that I just can't accept. Yes, patriarchy is about dominance, partly. Yes, physical and emotional IPV is also about control. Yes, patriarchy and its norms can be a factor in IPV. Yes, female perpetrated IPV is about control. That's as far as I agree.

That kind of reasoning is akin to us in the UK having domestic violence against men recorded as 'Violence Against Women and Girls'

I agree. What annoys me is that the artist, Nadina Ali, is one of us, ie, black. I call those types "white woman adjacent" though, because their ideals and approach to western society is all taken from the playbooks of the white women you speak of, often to the detriment of those black women's families, and communities. Their priorities are not their brothers and fathers, but hanging onto the coat-tails of an ideological movement they see as a free ride to the power that rich white women wield.

It's a substantive list but I think it misses out a key issue in society right now that leads to many issues further down the line. Early years education. The lack of male early years teachers. The fact that male early years and primary/elementary teachers are viewed a certain way by society, thusbdlreducing the likelihood of male teachers wanting to teach at those ages. The fact that boys are punished more severely than girls for the same behaviour. The fact that girls are marked higher than bo…

Why not slightly amend the tech behind the app so that female drivers are only given female users in the first place, therefore eliminating the need for the driver to refuse a passenger?

Men sit differently from women mainly due to the difference in the shape of the pelvis which in turn affects the angle at which the femur sits away from the body, rather than because of balls.

I dont see that that is the issue. The issue was the idea that ones identity as a feminist is Inextricably linked to the existence of a theoretical social construct and that this negates the possibility of self enquiry because it would have the adherent question their very identity as a person rather than just the theory itself. Whether patriarchy exists or not isnt the issue, its that nothing is allowed to be questioned. Creating a theory that exists in the sphere of social sciences that cannot…

Its almost a radical stance now to acknowledge that men are not in fact primal, sex obsessed animals whose only thoughts revolve around having sex with or at least sexualising every woman they come across.

Shutting down prisons and using the arguments that justify doing so is benevolent sexism. It suggests that women are incapable of being flawed and only do wrong under duress from men. This in turn feeds into the pedestalization of women, denying them agency and the freedom to be human and all that encompasses. This, according to most feminist theory, would be one of the many manifestations of patriarchal norms and perspectives. Being overprotective of women and not seeing them as equal to men. I…

I think the terms are over and misused.

Actual misogyny is the 0.1% of reasons. Similarly, whilst all your insights are extremely valid, I don't think I'd put any of them as being due to misandry. It is, as is the case with the discrimination women face, more complicated than that. Much of it comes a…

All the wife said was welcome home lol! How did you presume financial dependence from welcome home and an open door? And what is your thinking on the far more common expectation where women want a man they can depend on financially? In this day and age where everyone is able to get educated and get a job and contribute financially to the household, most men don't want a financial dependent adult. They want a partner in every sense of the word.

Slightly different but related; reminds me of a tweet I saw the other day where a woman said that men shouldn't order appetizers or desserts because it makes them look weak and that only the woman should order them. No doubt an example of "men" holding other men to impossible, toxic, standards of masculinity and something that "men" need to tell other "men" to stop doing.

One of the first points made was that women felt a relationship was less stable if they weren't the ones holding more power. This seems worrisome in and of itself.

Women don't "manspread" because men and women have differing pelvis shapes which affects the natural angle at which the femur sits relative to the hip. Men have to actively contract muscles to sit as a woman would in a relaxed state. The "balls" thing is not science

Reading that, the issue seems to be that she simply doesn't actually know what misandry is. She attempts to define misandry as anything that emphasises societies requirement for men to be masculine.

A refreshingly introspective article. Still irked by parts of it though, especially the "we need to teach men..." notion that seems to be so prevalent in feminist narratives.

I actually agree with this. Men are more violent than women generally. It served a purpose historically when we look at it from an evolutionary biology perspective.

The issue with your argument is that DV shelters for women are already plentiful as they should be given that there are more female victims of serious violence.

On the one hand we're being told to be open and expressive and t…

One of the issues I have with framing men's space for emotional expression so as to avoid the toxicity that comes with emotional repression, as a feminist issue, is that when it comes to emotional expression for men, lot of women feel that they should be, or it is their right to be the gatekeepers of men's emotional expression. They feel that they should be able to dictate what is and what isn't valid and/or useful, and that it should be the feelings of the woman that is centred when considering…

I'm sure I'm wrong from a wider perspective, but from that article at least, the majority of female art seems to be about women. Mens art is more an interpretation of the world. People are more inclined to be interested in artistic interpretations of the world rather than continuous focus on women, which is of course incredibly limiting in regards to wider appeal. There are similar arguments about female writers and my conclusions aren't the same but are similar. Men and women write about what m…

There wouldn't be a lack of women if it was based on quality rather than male preference. That's what's being asked of her. A meritocracy. It's relevant to the hiring of female writers because if male preferential hiring was eradicated in favour of hiring based purely on quality (rather than them being female as she suggests), more women will be hired so long as they're good enough. The only barrier will be quality. In contrast, you and her stand against merit based employment regardless of gend…

We have whole social movements and marketing campaigns focused towards women created on the idea that "you are perfect as you are", "you are enough", the idea that she doesn't need to change but society does etc. With regards to looks, media campaigns are again focused towards women telling them that they are healthy and perfect at every size, society is castigated when suggesting a woman is unattractive, "you are beautiful" is an idea sold to every woman, the whole body positivity movement is s…

He addressed it again in a newer show. He says that women, children, and dogs are loved unconditionally, whereas men are loved on the condition he provide something. Man meets woman, his friends ask what she looks like. Woman meets man, her friends ask what he does.

I'm not clinging to anything. Hormones aren't "ways of the past" no matter how much you protest. And again you are now clearly placing your own narrative into what I'm writing and not actually reading the actual words I'm typing. There is no issue with changing these things up and changing the way we see such professions, my point is that we have to accept that choices made will still differ along gender lines because men and women are different. Or is it simply that you're suggesting that the i…

Imagine telling a woman who was raped by her partner that it was her fault for not noticing "red flags", or that her wariness of men due to concerns about rape and assault issues mean that she should just stop having sex if she thinks men are all that malicious. It's always interesting how we differ when speaking to men and women about their respective concerns.

How do you outgrow natural hormonal differences that influence behaviour in genders? I think you're misreading or deliberately misunderstanding. There's no problem in trying to equalise certain fields, but we also have to realise that women and men will still make different choices in life precisely because men and women are different and will be drawn to different things. Acknowledging this isn't excuse making. Theres nothing to make excuses for. It is simple observation of fact.

Yep, teaching is an important one here. As for "priming" women to be protectors, I know the social convention is to say that all gender roles are socially constructed, but differences in gender behaviour are also biological. It is evolutionary psychology and the physical tools that implement it are our hormones, hormones that give us our sex in the pre natal stages. Males having higher levels of testosterone and the effects that has on behaviour is what primed men for the protector role througho…

By suggesting that it is something 'we' (read men) are responsible for doing, it, in my mind at least, infantilises women. It's the "benevolent sexism" that more enlightened feminists suggest is actually a hindrance to womens progression in society. So long as these industries have no legal barrier to entry for women, the choice is there for them to make. Women are simply making different choices and this will always be the case so long as men and women are biologically and psychologically diffe…

I think I get what she's trying to say. She's a single woman (romantically), but not a single mother (as the father still plays his part). Thus, shared parental duties, but without a romantic partner. I'm not mad at it. I'm more put off by the idea that she's a stoner whilst being a mother.

Instead of doing a literal comparison, allow for the idea that the woman has a sports bra type thing underneath, just so we can avoid devolving into a debate about the legality of female toplessness. If she took off her tshirt with a sports bra underneath, and there was a man in the crown taking pictures, he'd be labelled a sexual predator, he'd have lost his job, hed be on the news and front pages of newspapers, and men everywhere would again have the spotlight on our collective toxicity and en…

According to the prevailing social narrative, it is attitudes like this that lead to "toxic masculinity", in that it suggests that women are to weak or infantile to perform certain tasks and that it is a mans place to do so for her. Feminists would say that men behaving like this is purely a result of patriarchal attitudes passed down by men. They refuse to acknowledge how it is women and their base expectations of men and mens willingness to appease women that leads to these attitudes more than…

Unfortunately, the most plainly presented, unbiased facts are not going to change their minds.

Judge John wants to fuck. Hyperbole but I think it's a genuine issue.

I really don't think they're able to be entirely objective. Similar for female judges; they see a woman and start thinking of mitigating factors for the crime committed.

This is so hilarious. If someone was to satirise feminism, this is what they'd come up with. There's a 'law' of some sort that explains the above. Something about when something becomes so ridiculous you can't satirise it as you'd be unable to tell reality from satire. What's it called again?

Somebody teach this woman about how the respective shapes of men's and womens pelvis' determine the angle at which the femur sits naturally.

Forgive me if I'm being stupid, but if your child lives with you 50% of the time, why should you even have to pay child support? You are already providing for them for the same amount of time as the mother. Child support at this point is just a tac on men for having children with women they're no longer in relationships with.
