I like the comment that suggests Gender Studies focuses more on men than women. I wonder where they got that impression?

Probably a about how 'male privilege' lists will have BS like "the brotherhood". "Having it all" is a very obvious play on this.

Which is different, since it's a quote and a full sentence all on its own, with an attibution afterward.

I'm aware that's supposed to be the rule, but I personally disagree with it. It seems logically inconsistent. The sentence contains a quote, but doesn't end inside that quote. If I said "you're going through my comment history" in the middle of a sentence, everything makes perfect sense. But if it's at the end, it seems a bit weird to have it "end within something within itself."

No. I don't know if you're deliberately misinterpreting things, but this kind of "playing dumb" needs to stop. If they're not a feminist, they're not a feminist. It also happens that they're gender-neutral and inclusive, which is at odds with the self-described feminism most people encounter. I don't know why you're mixing those up and conflating everything together. She is not a self-described feminist, but is working towards many causes that feminism should be working towards. But feminism (as…

No. It's pretty clear you're just trying to antagonize people here. No one has inherently defined feminism as bad. I have, however, found the actions of a great number of self-described feminists (both online and IRL) as extremely hateful and disrespectful. While terms like "gender-neutral" and "all-inclusive" theoretically apply to feminism, they do not describe the feminism most people encounter in their lives, which is what is usually discussed.

Really good article. It touches on the remarkable achievements of women this year (none of them feminists), while focusing on the damage feminists have done to gender politics and debate. But it's not unbalanced, with the hilarious "Top three conservative caveman moments of the year" section. I echo the "Top wish for 2014: a “true equality” movement" notion at the end. With that last big MR post in SRD as a reminder, we really need to crack down on assholes in this movement.

Just from the graph, you could just as easily play "Minus a Penis" with other categories.

Part of that "legal equality for men" involves "smashing gender roles", like only men can take part in combat, only men should work and provide for the family, women are better at taking care of children and should always be given custody, etc...

She consented to have sex with him, how is that not clear? She didn't say no, she didn't do anything to suggest she didn't want to have sex. She just had sex with him. Sex isn't some one-way street, where men have sex and women have sex thrust upon them and say "yes" or "no". For two people to have sex, they both have to have sex. It's not just "the man has sex" and the woman "doesn't say no". You're going in with the assumption that it's rape unless there's clear, enthusiastic consent from the …

<Devil's advocate mode turned: ON> She accepted "oral sex" not, "intercourse". She consented to one form of sex, not all forms. <Devil's advocate mode turned: OFF> Speaking of blowing past arguments, remember this bit: The BJ is rather inconsequential at this point. She consented to the actual sex. The BJ doesn't really matter.

It isn't. If she accepted having sex, regardless of what she said earlier that weekend, how can you say that's rape? The BJ is rather inconsequential at this point. She gave consent, and then regretted having sex the morning after. That's not rape. In case you forgot, women are people too. They can change their minds, or stay steadfast on their decisions. I was kinda hoping someone other than me would poke holes in the arguments I supplied, rather than focus on my afterthought statement. You're …

Stereotypes of men in tech are part of a stigma keeping women away from tech positions. Before modern feminism took off, women were at the forefront of computing. They were the first computer users, the first computer programmer (before modern computers existed), the (co-)developer of Wi-Fi, cryptologists in WWII, the list goes on. Universities had amazing female enrollment numbers for Computing. But as the 'man-hating' portion of feminism grew, they began to mock more and more of the men involv…

That was so incredibly self-centred, I'm not quite sure how to respond. "Your problem is actually just a by-product of my problem, so let's solve my problem first. It doesn't matter if I'm actively part of your problem, because I insist it's your fault in the first place."

The 'article' broke down to: "498A is scary. What is 498A? It is scary. Do background checks on future spouses." And that was it. No real or useful information, other than telling you to do background checks on someone you're about to marry. It didn't explain what 498A was, other than being an Indian law that had at least something to do with marriage.

Some dictionaries insert the male definition to differentiate further between "hero" and "heroine". However, if you were to hear someone say "female hero", you'd likely take no issue with that.

There's four things that make a relationship work. Everyone knows about the first three (romance, intimacy, and trust). What everyone doesn't always mention is respect. Respecting your partner as your equal (regardless of gender) is essential, and your relationship won't work without it.

It's only stupid because she made a choice earlier that she didn't think through. Why should she be able to take someone else's support for granted? And even if she does, why isn't it that person who's paying? The answer to both those questions is because they're women. Women (almost) never have to pay child support. But here the court has a case where the couple is two women - who can they pin the child support on? Obviously, the solution is to hunt down the male sperm donor and get him to supp…

Well, no. She did choose to get a sperm donation to have a child. This isn't even a matter of having sex and accidentally getting pregnant. She went out of her way and paid to have sperm donation used to get herself pregnant. Not being able to support yourself after making such a decision is just stupid.

They used single quotes in the title(s), and paraphrased what the article claimed. Could you clarify what the difference is between someone claiming that they'd been "raped with his eyes", and someone claiming that they felt they'd been "raped with his eyes"? Aren't they just skipping the redundant part of the sentence, since you can't literally rape someone with your eyes?

So women just don't know better? I hate how feminists seem to treat women as helpless victims of society. This may surprise you, but women are just as capable as men at making decisions. Just because you disagree with the choices that women in general seem to make (like prioritizing fewer working hours and safer work conditions over higher pay), doesn't mean that they're being taken advantage of, or that they're repressed 'by society'. 'Society' isn't some all-encompassing scapegoat that we can …

It is sexist, because it is assuming all men are potential rapists. In the example I gave elsewhere in this thread, it is analogous to assuming all black people are criminals. Sure, it might be statistically more likely, but that doesn't justify stereotyping everyone.

If I ran an awareness campaign, with a list of things for black people to do to stop robbing people, would it still be okay? Of course not. Suggesting blame onto people who aren't criminals through generalizations is wrong, in any context. It doesn't raise awareness, it just scapegoats people in a bitter and misguided way.

when someone can tell me how paying for a girl's drink in attempt to sleep/converse/have time with her isn't essentially using booze to lower her ability to consent, I'll believe that this isn't rape culture Simple. It's when women can be trusted to make a decision for themselves on whether or not to drink. Personally, I think they can.

Thanks for linking those studies. They make for good reading. However, you're making the same mistake Bobsutan did. We're talking about using generalizations of a group to argue against everyone in that group. Even if it's the majority, and backed by statistics, that still doesn't mean you can assume that for everyone. Majority =/= All.

It is fair to generalize men as being aroused by a woman's sexy appearance. No. You forget gay people entirely. It is also fair to generalize women as being aroused by a man's perceived higher status. No, that's just your opinion, based on your perception of a small number of women in your personal life. It's definitely not true for all women, and you'd have a hard time proving it even for most. You're making generalizations, and then trying to support them with isolated experiences in your life…

He's trying to say that, if a woman so desired, she could simply accuse a co-worker of sexual harassment. His career is over, and he gets no appeal, nor a chance to prove his innocence. The accuser doesn't need to prove any guilt in this case, since it's a woman accusing a man.

Then it would seem you're having a problem with your Reddit Viewer, wouldn't it? Since the link itself works fine, maybe the Reddit Viewer can't handle the (long) URL, or perhaps the video has embedding disabled? How about reporting the bug/problem, since it clearly doesn't lie with the post itself.
