WHAT THE FUCK DOES THIS SHIT EVEN MEAN? They believe that white people have ill-gotten gains based on racism and we all benefit from it over black p[eople. Black men are lower in the Progressive stack than black women because we have male penis privilege. Got it. Literally this. I don't care because I'm not amenable to victimhood narratives.

Yes, and the KKK claims they only want to be 'left in peace'. What something claims to be vs. what it is are often not just different, but in direct oppositon. You're new around these parts.

The problem is pretty simple: women can 'afford' to have low paying work, men cannot. Additionally, men's jobs have been more readily outsourced because of a less of sociopolitical fallout.

That study was fucking terrible and you should know it by the truncated y-axis they use.

Similarly, there are extreme feminists who are similar to TRP, but the majority of feminists seek legal and social change in order to even out the playing field - just like mainstream men's rights. Hardly. Modern feminism seek legal protections to benefit women on the precept that men as a class are oppressors and privileged operating on principles of collectivism.

That last one having the added bonus of containing the spurious assertion that 'teaching boys not to rape' = seeing male sexuality as destructive/shaming men for their sexuality. Yes, teaching boys not to rape comes with the implication that they need to be taught but women don't--it is based on the precept that masculinity at large compels them to harm women.

But... RP does have a lot of guys assuming rape victims make it up. Yes, a lot of women do, and they aren't 'rape victims' because they weren't raped. False rape has an 8% proven false with up to a 90% grey area. This is a crime that often has no distinction from one of the most common acts on the planet, save a few words being said/not being said. Unlike other crimes, there is a lot more motivations to be had in accusing men of rape, from covering up infidelity to it being a great 'punishment' …

Ah, sorry, I didn't know the comment went through originally. Anyway, I believe they are lying or, at best, participate.

I'm also dying to know why you think BP women are the stereotype of a SJW. Most of us don't affiliate with SJWism. I do not believe this for a second. One look on the BP sub says otherwise. To be this "anti TRP", you typically are heavily invested in feminism. Bloops tend to be more successful with women naturally (or at least they claim to be) I also don't believe this.

RPW are often conservative who are often blonde and many are in their 30s and 40s so they are just more overweight, and I have found the overwhelming amount of feminists are fat/obese, and either have dark hair or have dyed it some terrible colour.

Simone de Beauvoir would beg to differ with that. But she was another one of those Fake Feminists, I suppose... At least de Beauvoir didn't obfuscate her reasoning as to why this is is, i.e. how can you expect men to view you as equals if you're at home like toddlers?

Liking how you ignored the existence of sperm banks, thar. Kinda throws a wrench in the whole thing about it being a 'child's right'. It's not.

Fathers could take the same time off work as mothers without suffering financially for it.

Look up women's patterns of mate selection when ovulating. And no, it's not just 'sex', but again, way to show your colours: it's the validation women give men through being attracted to them. Somehow, in this patriarchy we live in, women are the barometers of both male and female worth.

Not particularly, no. Maleness and masculinity are more of a result of this attitude, not the cause, hence why the extreme and aberrant versions so often show up warrior cultures or western equivalents, such as gangs. We have a gut reaction against helping men, and I am sure it is biological. It's funny how we so readily decided to throw resources at women when they expressed problems, historically, but men's problems are all caused by the social version of hitting yourself.

Because you're being disingenuous. Men kill themselves more because they don't have resources to deal with problems. Boiling down those resources to having a good cry is ridiculous. Among other things, men aren't able to take time off of work as easily as women, and other people lack compassion for them. Does abject stocism harm some men in some instances? Sure, but to act like that's even remotely the majority cause of the problem is a wonderful microcosm of the actual cause: people don't give …

What about the fact that gay men also struggle with internalizing emotions/ openly discussing and displaying emotions? Is that still women's fault? Yes, because these gay men still live in a world where women dictate how men ought to act, but beyond that, testosterone makes men less able to express emotions and cry via prolactin inhibition.

I also disagree that women are directly to blame for this, though that seems to be the general consensus on this board if you look at two recent topics about this subject.

Yes, AMRat is just 'describing' the problem. but it's used by feminists to critique what they perceive is the tendency for some men to criticize feminists for not caring about men or their problems while simultaneously not caring about women and their problems.

Men commit suicide more because their lives suck, not anything close to exclusively because they don't have the ability to have a good cry. When your life amounts to working a thankless job for 50 years one paycheque from starvation in an increasingly loveless relationship where your children can be taken away at any time, is it any wonder why men kill themselves more?

I just wonder where the line is between "the system no longer supports men's needs" and "men are hurting themselves" is. Few men will not admit that there aren't harmful facets of masculinity if brought to an extreme, but stoicism exists in men due to, in large part, how utterly without sympathy and resources vulnerable and impoverished men are. This is why 'toxic masculinity' just so happens to be most rampant in cultures where men are one bad argument away from getting shot, or one missed rent…

It’s not just that neither partner has said no. It’s about both partners saying yes. Lack of protest or resistance does not mean consent, nor does silence.

The most common male form of circumcision is equivalent to the most common female form of circumcision.

Most rapes are committed by a small number of men, and they are repeat offenders. It is likely that whatever justification they had for going through with the action, e.g. she was asking for it for being drunk, is simply a post-hoc rationalization. The second is just plain bigotry, and contradicted by a swath of read…

http://www.theviolencestopshere.ca/dbtg.php Very similar campaign. "The behaviour of men, including the sense of entitlement in regards to sex and access to women's bodies is what is being challenged through this campaign. Don't Be That Guy is urging men to end rape." They believe that men via social mores--masculinity--programs men to believe they are entitled to the bodies of women.

The only reason we have as many reported rapes as we do is because people are (often incorrectly, sadly) led to believe they're safe and protected in reporting. Putting the plaintiff on trial for losing a case isn't part of our justice system; why should it be so for rape? Because this isn't what is suggested, and this idea is only consistently brought up as a red-herring, or by people who are just willfully ignorant about how the justice system works.

Oh, men should also be sexy, lest they not mate or succeed in any way. It's just that it's treated as a given for men.

I disagree flat out that male sexuality is shamed. Give me examples if you want to go down this road. Don't bother with the "you don't care" personal attack next time. It's rude.

What I am suggesting is that if you have a propensity to 'freeze up' during sex, you need to readily inform your partner of this, or stay the hell away from sex.

Same problem as above. If the 'body language' is passive in nature - which it can be for involuntary moans, relaxation, signs of physical arousal, signs of orgasm - then it does not count as "affirmative" ongoing consent, right?

That's because they were on state support which requires men to pay child support to the women who can't/won't work, and this was a one in a million case. You're not really making an argument, here. The fact of the matter is that many women can and do deny their children their supposed 'birthright', showing it to be a crock of shit that the support is not almost always for the mother. It's just a modern-day form of alimony.

If the mother is un/less educated, then she is less able to pass on a desire for knowledge and understanding to the child. There was recently an article showing that spending time with the father increased the intelligence of children far more than time spent with the women.

The relevant part is here: However, the argument that my calculations resulted in an equal number of attempts for both sexes is incorrect. Completed suicides are not counted in the attempts.

Ignoring the fact that women attempt it more often to present it as a mostly male problem is twisting facts in the most dishonest way possible To my knowledge, this 'fact' doesn't come from anywhere. The only behaviour we have is 'suicidal behaviour', and it also does not distinguish the individuals from the amount of attempts, i.e. a woman who has 'attempted suicide' like fifty times will have those attempts counted under suicidal behaviour.

They conflate them because they put rate of incidence under, simply, Type I. Removal of the clitoral hood and removal of the clitoris are woefully different, overall. That said, removal of the clitoris is most analagous to removal of the foreskin anyway, so it's really water under the boat.

We're talking evidence. You've seen the whole shitstorm over men's centers, right? One of the center arguments is that it makes it appear that men are in need of help to anywhere close to the same level as women. They will abide men getting help, as long as it is shoved down the throats of the populace that the problems of men pale in comparison to those of women, and are caused by men/a system that benefits men.

I've said this before in another thread, but the gender gap being only 6% or so after accounting for experience and hours worked linearly is telling as hell, because base pay has an exponential relationship to hours of employment.

Drunk driving is not necessarily a strict liability crime. The mens rea is that a reasonable person would know not to drive a vehicle when they've had a few drinks.

It may well lead to social reform and higher wages if we can't get the output necessary otherwise. Let's be real here: many people at many jobs are putting in hours for the sake of appearances.
