This is a prime example on how to lie and manipulate with crafted "statistics". The main problem behind this numbers are the concepts used as the foundation of the "study", because they will automatically bias the conclusion before the data collection. The main conceptual bias driving the whole paper is the false equivalece between perceiving unfairness against men and "perceiving women's rights as a threat" and "being sexist". Basically, what this false equivalence does is creating a framework …

The main fallacy of this talking point is that, even though most offenders are men, the overwhelming majority of men are NOT offenders. Not even close to that. Reseach has been consistently showing for decades that violent crimes are committed mostly by persistent offenders, an small subset of the population: 1945: University of Pennsylvania - about 6% is accountable for 52% of violent crime https://www.jstor.org/stable/986609?seq=1 1982: University of Pennsylvania (follow up study) - about 7% a…

I think language plays a big role in this kind of phenomenon. Algorithms search for patterns and correlations between content, using words as their input. But what happens when an ideology is so normalized that the name of that ideology is not mentioned anymore by its beholders? Most dogmas, concepts and biases included within the sphere of feminism are constantly reinforced in regular "entertainment" or "informative" content, without even mentioning the word 'feminism' (your search input). Take…

Personal stories are a good way to show to the emotionally driven persons specific effects of behaviors that are encouraged or protected by an ideology, but unfortunately, ideology is a very hard armor that repels the experience of outsiders using post-hoc rationalization (they reach their conclusions first, based on their moral dogmas, and then they create an explanation that fits their narrative) and this kind of stories tend to appeal only to the more moderate audiences that are actually open…

What an odd thing to say in an age when some of the great feminist thinkers have been referred to as "seminal" feminists even though the word "seminal" is related to the word "semen". Yes, the word "seminal" is related to the latin word "semen" which literally means "seed". What is wrong with associating the start of a thing with a seed? It is a good analogy.

Every Single Feminist Comment Made In the 21st Century amounts to, at most, 6% of the history of feminism, less than 1/10th. Ok, but 6% of the total time is not equivalent to 6% of the total content. There is no simple way to measure the volume of content, but maybe the biggest volume has been produced in 21st century (including both academic and folk content). Also, recent times of 21st century represent the current state of affairs that is what most people criticize here (no the old historical…

I think we need to be precise with words here. In your question you mention "feminism" (the ideology) but then you proceed using a Bill Burr example that talks about "feminists" (the people). When talking about "feminists" (persons that identify as feminists or express the feminist dogmas), as with any other person, there is no reason to start an attack in a peaceful scenario. But people counter when they are attacked in the first place, if a person uses their ideology in a harmful way to attack…

In the same manner a real rape destroys the life of a person, a false rape accusation also destroys the life of the victim. The difference is that rape has an institutionalized punishment in the form of laws and prison, as false accusations have no legal consequences for the perpetrator (and it doesn't even have big social consequences if the perpetrator of a false accusation happens to be a woman). If the state is failing men who have their lives destroyed by not criminalizing and punishing the…

It looks hard in the current scenario, but if we continue spreading awareness and more men became active in left-wing men advocate groups, we'll be effectively pushing the Overton window, slowly but steady. It's hard, but if we start acting now, consistently, it will eventually occur. Belive in men, we can achieve great things.

This is where social constructivism falls, it borders on scientific denialism to completely ignore biological factors. Their importance may often be exaggerated... To be honest, we still don't know if it's exaggerated, it could be that science prove over time that in fact we are underestimating that factors. But I believe in science, and just remember when Galileo was accused of "heresy" for stating that the earth moves around the sun. Inquisition "cancelled" him and obliged to retreat his claim…

From a left-wing perspective this scenario represents a perfect example of Cultural Hegemony (in Gramscian sense): "Cultural hegemony is the dominance of a culturally diverse society by the ruling class who manipulate the culture of that society—the beliefs and explanations, perceptions, values, and mores—so that the worldview of the ruling class becomes the accepted cultural norm." As this scenario is directly enforced by the state itself, it's about time to start a real resistance, we need to …

The whole idea is mathematically flawed since its inception. A simple mathematical analysis shows that the combination of variables as low as 300 objects (n) with a sample size (r) as low as 5 result in more than 19 billion cases. With this low variables, we've already reached a number greater than world population, so intersectionality at its core leads to individualism: the intersection of a few traits numerically leads to combinations that may only be applicable at individual level.

Thank you! This is a very interesting writing. I agree with almost all points, I just have one comment regarding gender roles. It is true that the ways and rituals we use to perform gender roles are a kind of "script" derived from recent social conventions ("recent" in historical lengths), but many gendered behaviors themselves have been biologically modeled throughout the course of evolution. Core behaviors women expect from men and men expect from women are greatly influenced by hormonal proce…

That's because people are just selectively empathetic (only with their tribes or people who shares some traits/ideas with them), and capable of doing many atrocities as a direct result of their selective empathy. Relevant reading here.

Many studies suggest women looking for partners, in average, are more attracted to men with a nice uniform, well trimmed, stubble.

...but men made beauty standards... This is one of the most stupid claims I've ever heard. The core physical beauty standards (not current social trends) for both masculinity and femininity were modeled after hundreds of thousands of years of evolution.

After all what people want to do is only a product of societal pressure... I respectfully disagree on this point. As discussed by many sciences like Behavioral Endocrinology, Neuroscience and Human Biology, there are many drivers besides societal pressure for human desires and behaviors.

Developed countries, which have more financial opportunities and more equal distribution of wealth (at least in comparison with non-developed countries) are increasing its rates of people that report no dating and no sex, mostly driven by men. This data is from USA, but I remember seeing similar patterns from other developed countries in Europe . Data don't show any sign of correlation between more financial security on social levels and finding partners, it shows the opposite trend. There are m…

👆 This post is great! Essentially, "patriarchy" is an ideological fantasy (in a very Zizekian sense) that became a dogma, reinforced by its academic ideologues and therefore by the media and other power structures to the point it helped modern feminism became culturally hegemonic (in a very Gramscian sense) maintaining it in a dominant position that actually makes it part of the establishment of present times.

No. If you read again my previous comment you'll notice that I don't state what is the specific non-cultural trend most men will express when talking specifically about desires (not actual actions). I generically refer a possible evolutionary trend as "what most men would do if..." and is up to science (real, properly executed science, from many fields) to determine what would be this trend. It could happen that, after more science is done, the identified evolutionary/biological trend (not the a…

This is a very important point for this discussion. Evopsych is not about what people actually do due to current social and cultural reasons/constraints. If done right (scientifically speaking), it is more about understanding the impulses human brain may have due to hard-wired mechanisms inherited along evolution. Is true that many of that mechanisms could have evolved from centuries of social modeling, but that doesn't mean they aren't hard-wired for current generation. So, one thing is what mo…

Exactly, is just faith in their moral dogmas, not different from any cult or religion. Claim: "But there is serious academic research that proves blah..."

Surveys are loaded by the language, concepts and ideologies they are designed around, also there are many other biases from sampling to interpretation that can lead researchers to reach their desired conclusions. This method doesn't describe "real world", and using the fallacy of appeal to authority citing that this is valid just because "it's sociologists " doesn't help either.

I think this is one of the most important discussions we need to have as a society. And going a little further, we need to question the epistemological foundations themselves. Current "progressive" social concepts, followed by its discourse, followed by its dogmas, followed by its ideologies, followed by their impositive policies is built mostly around the epistemology of Critical Constructivism (the academic jargon for the famous concept of "everything is socially constructed").

I made a post here I'm LWMA a month ago analyzing this issue from the perspective of egalitarianism and consent, is a model that still needs to be worked, expanded and refined, but it was a first attempt to put side by side the men and women perspectives about Reproductive rights: https://www.reddit.com/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates/comments/rqxwlc/the_first_step_towards_an_egalitarian_society_is/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

Certainly there is room for improvement in this initial model, I think that some open ended questions could lead to some confusions. As also mentioned by other commenter, the box with the question if "woman can abort" could be segmented into more specific scenarios, for example if she can't abort because of laws impeding her, or because of "natural" causes (ex: there are medical conditions that threatens her life if she abort, and she is technically unable to abort without risking her own life).…

For sure! Bodily autonomy including the right to abort is one of the components of Reproductive Freedom, and is maybe the must publicly discussed nowadays (even though it isn't already solved as an issue). But there are certainly many other components around this topic that also need to be discussed, and in particular, the ones regarding men are mostly in the shadows and we need to give some visibility and awareness.

Sure, it would be awesome if we could achieve greater levels of confidence and availability of birth control. But the main problem analyzed here is not the contraception, but how currently the imposition of roles on men without their consent is normalized. Let's imagine that in an hypothetical future, we achieve a rate of unwanted pregnancies equivalent to 1% of what we have today. You'll still have men being unjustly assigned a compulsory role they don't consented - yes, there will be less than…

Sure, in theory, the best possible solution is to fully control our fertility, but in reality- at least with current conditions- that is not attainable at all, even though there are plenty of contraceptives available: Condoms failure rate vary from 2% to 15% Vasectomy is not always reversible, and success rate decrease with time (many men don't want to be fathers in the present, but may want to be in the future and the impossibility to guarantee a reversal makes very hard the normalization of va…

Big revolutions require to think ahead of current material conditions and sometimes even ahead of our lifespan. For example, maybe many salves in the past thought that slavery will never come to an end and they even normalized their situation, until many generations later the seeds planted by some revolutionary ideas changed the landscape and challenged the established system.

Sure! Adopting a model like this may result in a huge societal change. Not only because children will not be raised by non-consenting parents that are being obligated to assume them, but because both men and women may change the way they see some issues of current system as a whole: women will be more conscious about exercising their bodily autonomy and avoid having babies that won't have enough support (more agency and also responsibility for women) and men will be able to approach to family bu…

I understand that point, but if the mother is deciding to give birth, knowing man will not consent to assume the provider role, that has more to do with female bodily autonomy (decide to give birth or not) than with men's right to decide if they want to assume a role or not. In that case, mother would have all necessary information to exercise her bodily autonomy and make her own decision - she will know that if she gives birth there won't be a man providing. Women have agency, and should be acc…

Thanks for the feedback, we can certainly build a richer model by adding many more cases in which both men and women have their individual choices undermined. I hope we may have some way to document everything (maybe in a wiki?) and build together a new more egalitarian framework for everyone.

I think you need to separate things. One thing is what many women want from men, the other thing is what current laws impose to men without their consent. As mentioned earlier: If many woman want men with that role, that's ok, as it is a choice If many men want to assume the provider role, by their own will, that's also ok as it is a choice If an structure/laws force you to assume the provider role when you don't want to, that's not ok, as you are not having freedom of choice <- this is the whol…

men have no choice but to stem in to the traditional provider role That's the point. Men should have the choice, not having the choice is a gross violation. I tend to agree with the point in you other comment about many woman preference for a provider man, and that's ok if that's her personal preference, and it's ok also if a man choose to have this role, that is no the problem. If that roles come to naturally occur in a big group or even the majority of society, that's ok, as long as nobody cou…

Many comments are adressing the statement on the last slide about "ideology not having place in politics ". The truth is that, politics being all activities related to making and enforcing decisions into groups, unfortunately in the current state of affairs, ideology is the most prominent mechanism to attract a critical mass in order to hijack the system we know as "democracy", as it relies on having the minimal numerical majority to enforce decisions to the whole society.

Feminism's an approach to interpreting data. Sociology has multiple approaches, and feminism is just one of them. Feminism within academia goes beyond interpreting data. It defines it's own concepts in an ideological way and then applies the methodologies that better fit its narratives to generate its data in a way that reinforces the concepts from which it born. Or in other cases, feminist research collects data from other sources/fields but only when it fits the ideological narrative. (For ref…

There is of course plenty of academic literature you can find for just about any of these topic. Most research that involves actual scientific vigor seems to support a more rational, non feminist view. Even if it got there by accident by researchers who expected to find something different. It would be awesome if you could point us to some of this research, I'll be very interested in analyzing and sharing with other people

In the same way they cherry-pick social media content to "validate" their vision about men, they also cherry-pick history to "validate" their narratives.

Thank you for this warning. And the fact that this sub is growing steadily is a good signal that the overton window for male issues is slowly moving. Subs like this give me hope that in the future caring about the very real issues of men will not be considered a radical idea, and at least will be accepted in a way men will be seen as sensible and human. As for the other sub you mentioned, I think many men will move eventually, when they reflect about many topics that are shared in this sub which…

You may want to respond that the main phallacy of this narrative is that, even though most offenders are male, not most males are offenders. Not even close to that. Reseach has been consistently showing for decades that violent crimes are committed mostly by persistent offenders, an small subset of the population: 1945: University of Pennsylvania - about 6% is accountable for 52% of violent crime https://www.jstor.org/stable/986609?seq=1 1982: University of Pennsylvania (follow up study) - about…

You may want to explore double-standards, it is a topic that may be easily applied on memes. For example: [First image] A woman activist holding a sign that reads: "we need to stand for all rape victims" [Second image] Someone showing her lots of real screenshots of news about sexually abused men [Third image] The word "all" on the sign is now crossed and over it is now written the word "some" so the sign now reads: "we need to stand for some rape victims" And many other like that...

These will be awesome but men participating in this initiative need to be ready for radical feminists trying to hijack the hashtag trying to change its meaning, as always, to dehumanize men. For these reasons, the first twits we need to send and massively like should be against reverse rethoric, like: MenAreHuman and people using this hashtag to attack men just proves how necessary is to combat ongoing misandy that dehumanize men Or Attacking men using the hashtag #MenAreHuman is the same as doi…

"Women have emotions, Men have egos". This is actually one of the strategies of feminism to dehumanize men

There are so many debatable points, but just to cite some: -The so-called "toxicity" (understood as behaviors that could damage others) doesn’t belong to a gender -Bullying is not a strictly male problem, there are lots of female bullies -Boys rough playing is not a bad thing is part of their development process Imagine an ad with broad generalizations about women portraying them using the negative female stereotypes and then saying that they can change.

Immigration scenario tends to be a little different, because of the kind of men they expect validation from. An immigrant Peruvian woman may perceive a very high percentage of American men as 'better positioned' within the social scale than most Peruvian men. I didn't wanted to use to the red-pilled concept of hypergamy, but in this case it sadly make a lot of sense. They don't like to be approached by middle or low class Peruvian men, but for rich Peruvian men and perceived higher status foreig…

Sorry for saying this, but I live in Latin America and it is not very different here. Latin America absorbed the same ideological and political thinking and currently this issues are not so different from other western countries. Certainly, latinos have a different communication style and some specific behavioral traits that differ from, let's say, USA. But hegemonic ideologies and their consequences on sexual dynamics are awfully similar :(

Everyone knows r/MensLib is not about male advocacy is just a feminist puppet that uses an strictly regulated definition of acceptable "male issues" as a disguise to advocate for feminism in the first place. Certainly they don't represent men.

I refuted this with a comprehensive argument and is still being downvoted. My answer was: There is no misunderstanding about what "toxic masculinity actually means" it happens that it means something different in real life scenarios in the present, than in the definition on a book written by an specific ideologue in the 80s. If the daily use of the term in real scenarios, massively, convey a different meaning than the book definitions, then, there is no misunderstanding, the term actually means …

Youtube is an awesome channel to share this ideas, with a proper content strategy the potential to start a real discussion and gain attention from other outlets is huge. Certainly, entertainment content reach bigger audiences than academic content, and for this reason maybe a good strategy could be to design entertainment content using this ideas as background. There are elements that could generate curiosity about new ideas, for example emotional stories and surprise. Emotional stories lead to …

This happens because facts are weaker than narratives. As long as the same academic, media and policy-maker gatekeepers continue to impose their ideological narratives nothing is going to change. The only possible way to change this scenario is by establishing a solid academic and social criticism to modern feminism. It's also necessary to have a large mass o men establishing their position on this issue in an open way, publicly. Currently, most men don't speak openly about their criticisms to h…

Not the first time, Disney-Pixar launched a misandric short film called Purl in 2018 in which they "criticize" the "bro culture". In this short movie men are shown as an homogeneous "toxic" horde against an "special" positive female character represented by a pink yarn ball that in the end transforms that group of "insensitive men" into woke SJWs.

Not only social media, but also academy and traditional media is also dominated by third-wave feminist thinking. There is an effort that has been going on for decades, fueled by propaganda, to demonize male-only spaces (labeling them as toxic, without diversity, and many other negative concepts) as well as to promote female only spaces (labeling them as empowered, positive and necessary). This is a calculated ideological effort that needs to be reversed immediately in order to avoid more damage.…

That specific generation of woman will find that specific generation of men attractive since it will be a sudden change that meet their standards. But since that hypothetical sudden change only occurred to men and not to woman, the next generation of men will be a genetic mix of previous all-attractive men generation and the regular distribution of female attractiveness. The result will be a new distribution of attractiveness since the mix of attractive men and attractive women should result in …

Interesting as history, not valid for today's scenario and definition of sexual success (that is not necessarily based on reproduction alone nowadays for a great part of western society). Most men can "reproduce" nowadays, but at what cost? What are the differences in the level of investment of a non-attractive man vs an attractive man in order to achieve purely sexual (not strictly reproductive) sucess?
