I remember, one time, I responded to a feminist online who was complaining about the stigma that attached to women who made rape accusations and how this stigma made it so gosh-darned fearsome for women to report their assaults. I asked why, then, this stigma didn't dissuade this lil' darling from making five false accusations or this treasure from doing it 8 times. I didn't get an answer. That is some mighty stigma.

Some male feminists are quite macho. Some of them have (correctly) intuited that it is safe to beat-up on lesser men if the target is labelled a 'sexist' They can go online and yell 'STOP BEATING YOUR WIVES!!11!!' and it's a very impressive moral performance to oppose stuff that is already-universally opposed, innit? So very brave. Joe Biden gets called a feminist but he's an old-school chivalrist who thinks women need special protection. Feminists lap that shit up.

That had crossed my mind. Though my mother would've preferred that I stay a virgin forever. Her sneering disapproval of the thought of me having a girlfriend when I was in 20 is something I won't soon forget and it was 20 years ago.

Why get involved? Because they want to have a small captive group who sits in the back of the bus silently until your name is called. Then, you are bestowed the honor of working very hard for your vagina-having betters, perhaps as an attack-dog or human shield.

It really is hard to fathom that anyone takes Lindy West even 10% seriously. I looked at her Twitter feed once and I couldn't even get three tweets into it. Her militant victim-mentality about being 'powerless' in society is an excellent reason to keep her as far from power as possible. There aren't many people who I can envision as Robespierre executing people for a lack of revolutionary zeal, but with her I can. Artie Chu is another.

what sort of tattoo artist gives a young girl a facial tattoo? One who really needed the money or one who does not care about the individual getting the tattoo. A tattoo is a collaborative piece of work, one which the artist is free to refuse to do for whatever reason. Like if the person is not sober, for instance. Or if the client has not gotten confirmation that the kanji means what they think it means. This is done to protect the person getting the tattoo. That is my understanding.

I'm no expert on pro sports, but the WNBA has been a money-loser since the beginning but it keeps soldiering-on because its financial backers really believe in it.

I will say what's kind of irritating about this kind of article: the author (and the band members) are appealing to a moral principle while upholding only half of it. (Many feminists do this as well, which is one reason I find them so very annoying.) It is the principle of universality. If something is OK for you to do, it is OK for others to do.

Wyoming wanted to attract more women and more families. No women were involved in the decision-making and, in fact, the state museum in Wyoming actually made-up a story in which an actually-existing woman was said to be a suffragist advocating for voting rights when there's no record of her actually doing such a thing.

As for "revenge," what exactly are they taking revenge for? They're getting revenge for all the stuff that men did to women since the dawn of time. And they have but one lifetime to do it in!

Maybe medical staff would need training too, idk. My understanding is that medical staff already do have that kind of training. When someone comes into a hospital and says they've been raped, they do have procedures for that. It seems to me that the world is actually quite responsive to rape victims, but in the mind of the feminist rape-fixated madwoman, no level of response is ever good or appropriate enough.

but rather start something new that actually is about equality. Well, in that case, it would be called "egalitarianism" or even "liberalism."

The result of this will be a less-equal society, such as the situation in higher education where feminists demand gender-parity in the STEM fields i…

It seems like the end result they want is to have the accusation itself count as evidence. Oh that IS what they want. It most definitely IS! Treating rape as a normal crime is outrageous to them. For this one crime alone, the whole of the world must be altered.

Think back to when the women where fighting for the vote Like in Wyoming Territory, the first place in the US for women to be given suffrage, despite there being no suffragist movement in Wyoming Territory to demand it. The rest of the American suffragists, by the early 20th century, were simply demanding that the remaining states do what so many of the western states had done without them. But it's not as heroic-sounding when you say it that way. ;)

No, it seems to be that men are taught to rape by society and if you don't counter-act this poisonous message, they will go-out to rape women. Sex has nothing to do with rape; rape is a political crime against women and the penis is the choice of weapon. It is not that a rapist is a pathological man who doesn't care about consent and may get-off on hurting his victim, average men are rapists because they've never heard the word "consent" before and don't know how the concept works.

I think the preferred term is 'secular religion', like Freudianism was in psychology or Marxism. Feminism is the secular religion for women. That's one reason they have a special, visceral distaste for Christians. Muslims, Hindus and Jews, though, are exotic minorities and get a pass. As do goddess-based religions. They will hate Catholics until there is a female pope. After that point, everyone will need to follow her infallible bulls, they will insist.

Because white-girl feminists don't want to look racist. Muslims are an oppressed class, in their view, so criticizing them is racist. That's the same reason they don't criticize the misogyny of rap lyrics, unless it's Eminem. True, Islam isn't a RACE and anyone of any race can be Muslim, but never mind that. If it was lily-white Bosnian Muslim men who'd done it, I suspect the feminists might have a real conundrum on their hands.

Interesting fact: there is a similarly-sized income gap between self-employed women and self-employed men. A self-employed woman is her own boss and sets her own hours; there is no evil male boss around to under-pay her. What explains that? Well, obviously, the self-employed woman is working differently from the self-employed man. Not worse, just differently. So, really, even if women and men are doing "the same work", a crucial question to ask is: are the women doing anything differently from t…

If it's okay for women to go topless, it's okay for me to take pictures of them. Much in the same way that it's okay for women to take pictures of topless men. To argue otherwise is to say that breasts are appropriate to expose to view yet inappropriate to see or photograph. But, then again, incoherent demands are the most fun to to make.

In Japan, where abortions are basically done on demand without moral qualms, it is possible to find at certain temples very small statuettes that have been put-up in remembrance of aborted fetuses. This would greatly annoy American feminists who insist that when you abort a fetus, nothing of emotional importance is being destroyed, so feeling bad about having an abortion is just the patriarchy getting into your head.

The cultural narrative implies that women have less agency, and that when they do things, they are less responsible for the outcomes, for better or worse. Not quite.

Contrary to my fantasy, feminists actually have a pretty easygoing attitude towards men who put the moves on women to get sexual consent, eh? Thank you for setting me straight. I'm suffering from another crazy delusion as well.

Well, most feminists do seem to think that lying is perfectly okay if it advances the cause. Women need to be able to lie, you see. When you have a small, weak, innocent character (Team Woman) fighting their righteous fight against the big, evil slobbering sharp-toothed boogeyman (Team Men), the weaker character needs a lot of stealth weapons in order to have a fighting chance. And carrying a stealth weapon in your back pocket requires you to lie a lot. You can't say "rape accusations are very p…

One time, I made the mistake of looking at her twitter feed.

They also believe, simultaneously, that society devalues anything feminine. Yet the feminine versions of products are said to command higher prices. Try and figure-out how that one works, sparky!

Everything would crumble because putting a slice of ham on top of a slice of rye bread is way too taxing for any man to ever do for himself.

Words' meanings are plastic to these people, meaning whatever they wish them to mean for the convenience of the argument and, when the argument ceases to be useful, the meaning is instantly forgotten and some other meaning is immediately adopted. When convenient, I'm sure she points to the dictionary in order to back-up her claims. So, yes, misogyny is destructive hate and oppression because Team Woman must be sided-with in all things.

I'd thought that women knew how to shop, seeing as how they traditionally do more shopping and there's more retail space devoted to women's goods and so on. But I was wrong. Checking price tags is too burdensome and whether one number is bigger than another is too misleading if the product is pink.

Actual performance is irrelevant when you are a female businessperson. Not being feminist enough is the important criteria because feminists neither know nor care about the boring stuff involved in doing actual work; turning profits is something they find rather distasteful and they would rather throw capitalism itself into the wastebin of history. But that doesn't stop them from praising the likes of Janet Yellen or Carly Fiorina before they figured-out Carly is a Republican.

And in situaions where men are NOT treated as the default, that is male privilege as well, such as how men are supposedly praised for mediocre performance in doing traditionally female tasks.

I must say I am again impressed by the compartmentalization of the feminist brain. To wit: Feminine things are under-valued by society and even stigmatized by society due to widespread misogyny. Feminized products command exploitatively-higher prices. Does not compute The two ideas are incoherent.

There is no fraud going on. The prices are visible. In my home county, there was a law where if the price of a product on the shelf is lower than the price at the checkout counter, the customer was owed a cash-back amount 5 times more than the price difference (or something like that). Pricing is VERY transparent.

My take on this? When 'femaleness' is suggested in a product, it becomes a premium product that people are actually willing to pay more for. The bit with the pink calculator suggests to me that women are willing to pay more for a pink product because it is made special, for women and there is absolutely no qualitative reason to buy a pink calculator if you don't want one. Perhaps this is the price one pays if one has the idea that one's sex makes them more valuable than a product made for mere m…

If you look at her record of going from success to success, it really is hard to imagine that she ever experienced a day of discrimination in her life until she got to the tech sector. After that point, one gets the impression that she entered a field she wasn't cut-out for. Which IS something that happens to men, too. But, you see, the only possible outcome for a woman ought to be success with zero criticism involved. Because, God knows, no one ever criticizes men in positions of authority.

It's a good thing that nothing a woman says or does is ever a kind of microaggression. Even if it involves stuffing a baby in the microwave.

The only news on ISIS you can get is ridiculously obvious war time propaganda. So the mass-killings and the torture-dungeons are exaggerations? Or are they just wacky performance art? I do get the impression that when IS says they want to kill-off 200 million Shia as heretics, they actually mean it.

The colleges are arguably worse because, unlike ISIS, frats serve alcohol in order to "get women drunk". Because everyone knows that women cannot refuse alcohol and to offer a woman a shot of Grey Goose is to force it down her throat and, furthermore, women cannot offer drinks to men. /s (oblig)

I don't know about you, but whenever I look at a woman, I see a floating uterus with a bunch of extraneous flesh, bones and organs getting in the way. 20 years ago, men were a bunch of sex-craving beasts. Now, apparently, we're reproductive-control-craving beasts! We say stuff like: "Hey, check-out that hot womb at the end of the bar. I'd sure love to see it be filled with someone else's seed and watch it swell with a fetus."

My grandmother outlived my grandfather by about 15 years. But I shouldn't bring that up, though, because it's not average. Big people die a bit earlier than small people. So in Bangladesh, where male life expectancy slightly exceeds women's life expectancy, the men must have slightly smaller bodies than the women do. Makes sense. And when the USSR collapsed, and the Russian male life expectancy-- but not the female life expectancy-- plummeted to a 3rd world level, the men must've grown friggin' …

LOL! I once saw a book by Ariel Levy called 'female chauvinist pigs', and I thought maybe it would be about anti-male sexist attitudes that women have. Nope. It was about women who do things like star in porn and produce Girls Gone Wild videos and what have you. They are the female chauvinist pigs, you see, and anti-sex man-haters like Levy are the cure.

I don't think that was something they ever freely talked about, though. As for this project in the jungle, would these independent gals pour their own concrete? Sort of reminds me of Nietzsche's sister's scheme for Germans in Paraguay.

In aligning oppressive government with repressed womanhood, the oppressive force of masculinity is nicely tucked away out of scrutiny. I... I've read this sentence a few times... and... what is this even supposed to mean? Does this make any sense to anybody?

It seems to me that feminists make appeals to the government all the time and, in fact, the Swedish chicks who accused Assange went to the authorities as their…

There was a man in Massachusetts in 2008 that I read about in the Boston Globe. He'd been working in the Social Security bureaucracy for quite a few years and he got put under investigation and fired. Why? Because he'd failed to sign-up for Selective Service way back when and you can't have a federal job if you didn't register. He was homeless as a teenager and didn't have an address to mail the form to, but never mind. I think he eventually sued (successfully) to get his job back. No woman woul…

Well, yeah, male guilt is simply presumed by feminists, and this presumption exists before any accusation is even made. This is why they believe every single accusation ever made by any woman.

Well, I wasn't talking about rape fantasies. I was talking about the co-existence of "consent can be revoked at any time, turning a consensual sex act into rape" with "rape is about power, not about sex". I don't really hear feminists saying stuff like: only some rapes are about power or rape is really about sex in some situations and about power in other situations or rape is not necessarily about power. If I did hear feminists say these things, I probably wouldn't have asked the question up to…

You do a disservice to feminism when you take comments from the radical feminists and assume they are representative of all of feminism. So radical feminists aren't real feminists, then? And the article from The Frisky that I linked to above, the one which says consent can be revoked at any time, (that is what my analogy was really based on, btw) does that not count as a feminist opinion? If one is going to credit feminism as a whole for the good achievements of some of its individual members, a…

I remember when Viagra first came-out in the late '90s. Feminists at the time did not exactly evince an insouciant, good-natured attitude about it. And over the previous three decades, they gave not a shit about the nonexistence of an oral contraceptive for men (and they still don't, btw).

I really don't think that feminists hate sex. They're wildly, enthusiastically on-board with gay people having sex. When it comes to heterosexual sex, they flamboyantly promote female orgasms while, simultaneously, try to punish men for having sex because men are a bunch of perverted, sinister, violent, objectifying sickos whose penises are, simultaneously, pathetic and terrifying.

So being a drunk, naive woman at a frat party is no different from being a billionaire at the Waldorf Astoria? You've never actually been to a frat party, have you? Go on, it's sa…

Can you boil-down your point into one sentence without using the words "rape culture" or "normalized"? Because I don't think we're on the same page with the definitions of those terms.

Because the feminists are correct-- we live in a society in which rape is normalized. Because advice.

So, in other words, rape culture is a culture in which people think rape is normal. As evidenced by the fact that advice exists. Jesus. Well then! If that's the case, then rape culture will vanish when people stop giving advice about rape. QED!

Well, the dictionary [begs to differ with you.] (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/normalized?s=t) to make normal. to establish or resume (relations) in a normal manner, as between countries. Metallurgy. to heat (a steel alloy) to a suitable temperature above the transformation range and then to cool in still air at ambient temperature.

I've seen you say this quite a number of times, as if you're the only person with insight into what "rape culture" is.

I can assure you that things are different in most other countries. In the U.S., "rape" can include things that would not be called rape in, say, France or Italy.

Those who use 'patriarchy' as a shaming tactic are also adamant that it does not mean "men are evil fuckers."

Oh, I noticed the same thing ages ago. But when I say those same words, I'm shouted-down because I'm burdened the world's most horrible and insidious birth defect: the Y chromosome. ;)

This author deserves some props for giving a fair-minded review to Hanna Rosin's book 'The End of Men.' Her review was enjoyable to read, as she uses an even-handed perspective to call-out the author for her rampant and undeniable misandry. Really, she fully grasps the idea that when one sex emerges on top, both sexes ultimately come-out losing in the end: Equality is the pole star of my own politics, and that made it really tough going for me to read The End of Men objectively, or maybe even fa…

I read Chesler's book. In the introduction, there's a very interesting passage in which she said that, when she was writing the book, her colleagues in Women's Studies departments basically gave her stinkeye the whole time because they thought it was politically necessary to put-up an uncritical united front.

It's sounds like you've applied some critical thinking on gender issues and you extended empathy to people regardless of their sex. Good on ya for giving this subreddit a fair chance.

Hey, JTO- good luck with this. Predictably, the people on the feminist side will be arguing that NO, feminism has not gone far enough. In fact, no amount of feminism is ever enough for them. I think it would be a good idea to ask them: At what point would they be willing to agree that feminism has gone too far? What's the tipping point? Predictably, they would say that it must be the point at which men are cowering in fear of being raped, that women out-earn men on the job and all the other usua…

Hey, friend. Hell of a jam you're in-- you try to do the right thing, but your boss took it the wrong way and came down on you. Here's the thing: you need to look-out for yourself first and foremost. Because, after all, you can't protect other people if you can't protect yourself first and foremost. So that's the first thing you need to do: protect yourself. And the best way a man can protect himself is by being professional. Follow the rules by the book. I work with a horribly annoying woman wh…

One way that men can increase their own status in women's eyes is by stepping on the heads of 'lesser' men. You get patted on the head and praised by individuals whom you consider to not only be your moral superiors, but also individuals who have been unfairly held-down for thousands of years. Adding to it, you trust them instinctively. Women, you assume, know what they are talking about. They have serious moral cachet, after all, so they must be right. No man has ever been punished for doing wh…

It reminds me of closing time at a 3rd rate bar in downtown Cincinnatti when the lights go on. At SlutWalks, there are a lot of signs telling men that it's not OK to rape, which is something that pretty much everyone agrees with. Except they really seem to think that anyone is actually going to debate that statement. Arguing in opposition to something which everybody is already opposed to is not an impressive performance.

Then you have to ask: Shouldn't shareholders-- the folks who actually own the company-- ultimately be the ones to decide who ought to represent them on the board? Also ask them how they feel about gender quota rules for parliaments. You'll be stunned at how many of them are willing to back such an anti-democratic measure. It's as if these people think the political and corporate systems ought to be reformed for the benefit of female office-holders and female board members rather than for the pub…

A lot of feminists believe that women, oppressed darlings that they are, deserve a little something extra. Preferably a lot extra. Or better yet- why stop at mere 'equality' when you have a chance to grab the whole enchilada? Sure, they talk about 'equality' all day long but they love it-- absolutely love it-- when they think they have an occasion to do a little victory dance over the bodies of defeated enemies. A victory dance that, while sweet and well-earned, in no way suggests that their elu…

I think women probably always knew deep down that they were the more intelligent ones – but as the gentler sex we were quiet about it and let men continue to believe they ruled the world. Interesting. So back when women lagged men by 5 IQ points, that proved nothing but that the tests were sexist and needed to be fixed because women are just as intelligent as men. But now that women register higher IQs, the test results prove superior female intelligence, which was always the case all along. Kin…

I remember the NPR debate on "The end of men" and what was so striking was the sheer eagerness that the audience displayed about the concept, despite the fact that Rosin had to reframe the argument as "the end of a certain kind of model of masculinity" instead of the original question of the debate. Rather conveniently, this model of masculinity existed in her own head. Amid all her triumphalism, what I find disturbing is her refusal to acknowledge male disposability or, God forbid, extending it…

I'm sure the pay is tempting. But the women who go into the industry are not exactly doe-eyed virgins who were merrily on their way to Sunday school when Bob Guccione stepped-out from an alley, bonked them over the head and bundled them away in a wheeled cage.

Question: How hard is it for a woman to not be in a porn flick? Because when I read stuff like the above, I get the impression that the recruitment goes like this: Naive young waif: "I'm through with high school and all that homework, gosh-darn it! I'm quitting today. I'll run-off to Hollywood and become a big star!" Cackling, mustache-twirling sinister fellow in black overcoat: "Hey, chickie. Wanna be a big star? How would you like to make it big in the glamorous world of PORN?" Naive young wai…

Yeah, that's located in the Behesht-e Zahra cemetery. My understanding is that there's a martyr's museum in pretty much every Iranian city as well.

Of course you may. I don't own it. My understanding is that Iranian school textbooks are big on martyrdom, as well. Men really need to be DRIVEN into this kind of behavior. They need religious urging, social urging, nationalistic urging, economic incentives, maybe having a street named after you, etc.

Oh, there will be a wave of shaming language. Men who take it won't be "real men." Commenters on articles will say: "I wouldn't trust a man who's on the pill." There will be pointed questions about its long term health-effects. Just you watch.

Then we're going backwards? In some ways, I suspect we have been going backwards. Progress isn't inevitable. Pompeii, when it was buried back in 79 AD, had a lot of erotic art right in public. Big penises, sex acts, all kinds of stuff right in the open air that wouldn't make it past the FCC nowadays. I wasn't talking about pornography in public. I was talking about openly having it on the coffee table in one's own home.
