Sometimes I think femenists say misandry doesn't exist in a symantic way, similar to how some people say black people can't be racist (even though they can be predjudiced). It is symantic argument about structural power systems and not individual behavior. All in all, these symantic arguments just aren't productive outside college classes, and are more confusing than illuminating. Secondly, I think both men and women have a really hard time recognizing and empathizing with the hardships the othe…

I had to look up how big the team was. It is 5 people. That doesn't seem crazy to me for it to be all one gender. It can happen completely randomly. If it was 30 women, it would be a different story

I do think there should be provisions for times when women find out particularly late. That is why I made an exception for that. I also think 2 weeks is an appropriate minimum amount of time to make a decision. An abortion is safest and easiest to perform the earlier you get it, so if this was to be a framework for a legal process, it makes sense to give parameters that make it expedient. I feel like this is best for both parties.

I am basically referencing the emotional pain from going through the procedure, and the effect of hormones, which is not nothing. Remember, we are comparing this proposal to the current state, which is that the man gets no opportunity to divest himself.

I disagree. If she decides to have an abortion, the woman is already paying a cost in terms of time (especially in parts of the country that now ban abortions and require travel), physical impairment (a minor medical procedure at best, but along with potential complications and hormone imbalances), and maybe emotional pain. I think it is more than fair for the guy to shoulder the financial burden to offset this, particularly since this is equally both of their responsibility. In the case of the …

Denial of parental rights means that you have no special rights or responsibilities to or from that child. Like the other person said, no custody, visitation, or financial support. No implied inheritance or say in medical decisions. Nothing. Legally, they are just another person in the world to you. Same as if you were a sperm donor.

It seems like there is a way to make the whole process fair for everyone, maintaining the right to be a parent, as well as bodily autonomy. Barring strange circumstances where women don't realize they're pregnant for a long time due to medical irregularities, we ought to have some sort of rules like this: When women discover that they are pregnant, they should be required to let the potential father know within the 1st trimester. If she is not certain of who the father is, she should take a pate…

It is funny because I was thinking that the way they conducted that study makes it very difficult to determine causality. If someone starts creating a more stable life for themselves, they are more likely to be in a good relationship. For a control group, rather than comparing married and unmarried delinquents, they should compare married gay and straight delinquents. Then you will see if women pacify men, or if stable men simply have better relationships.

Men are just more violent than women because most crimes are profit-motivated This sentence doesn't make sense to me,a nd has a lot of built-in assumptions. Most crimes are not violent, and why would men be more motivated by profit than women? not to mention that women can outsource violence. I agree that women often outsource their violence. I was bullied in high school by a girl who told her boyfriend to beat me up because I rested my feet on the legs of her desk. I am not convinced that women…

I think laymen reinterpreting data is a huge part of the problem. I suggest listening to a few of those podcasts, where you get to hear from actual evolutionary psychologists talking about their field. I would be curious to see if it changes your mind. Although most of the controversy is around sex differences, there is also a ton of fascinating stuff about friendship, fears, group dynamics, and status games.

It is crazy to me that some people define rape as "a man putting his penis into someone without their consent". But a lot of jurisdictions do that. That is one of the reasons why we have heavily skewed rape and sexual assault numbers. I am definitely an egalitarian, but I do try to be a realist, though. I think men are more violent than women. In practice, and by nature. I do not think that the vast majority of men are unable to control themselves, though, as evidenced by our modern society, whi…

Pinker is definitely an evolutionary psychologist. Although I think he is an early one. I hear him quoted all the time. One thing about EP is that it is a relatively young field, and even they will admit that their science is much better now than it was in the 90's. The problem with just comparing humans to chimpanzees is that we are still very different from them, and that they share being our closest relatives with bonobos, which are relatively peaceful and matriarchal. I do think there is a l…

I've heard a lot of people say exactly what you have said. But then I looked into it, and was like, "No, this is legit science where they do normal hypotheses where they use the scientific method, falsifiable claims and have peer review.

I have said this for a long time. Slogans matter. The slogan of the Me Too movement should have been, "Take women seriously". That way, it talks directly about how people easily dismissed women's accusations and stories without being hyperbolic.

I think you have an interesting point in talking about who is unheard. I also think that shows the nuance of the situation. here is what I think, tell me if it aligns with your experience. In day-to-day life, men have more power, influence and ability to change things. Their voice is heard more often in a general sense. When talking about who is victimized or marginalized, we as a society don't like talking about men being in that position. So specifically talking about male victimization doesn'…

Sexual assault - I would agree that all victims should be acknowledged, but I also think on this issue it is fair to say that women are sexually assaulted more often, and the large majority of perpetrators are men. It is an issue that affects both men and women, but it is lopsided. Wage Gaps - This topic deserves a lot more nuance. There are definitely issues with hiring women, and the types of fields that men and women re steered towards. Domestic Labor - I would love to see where you got your …

I don't think holding two similar issues is a big difference in time or empathy. It is like saying you are against racism against black people and Latinos. Maybe you are more involved in anti-racism on one front, but you see the overlap. I also think that very few issues of either gender as confrontational as your example.

I agree that for the topics of IVP the stats are pretty similar (as are the reasons), so there doesn't need to be as much division of the issue by sex. However, I think with a lot of issues, including genital mutilation the issues specific to each gender are pertinent. It is fine to say genital mutilation is wrong point blanks, but the reasons and solutions are very different (FGM efforts would mostly be in Africa and towards African immigrants, while MGM would be in the first world for example)…

I agree that looking at gender dynamics as oppressed/oppressor groups is detrimental and not based in reality. On feminist subreddits I constantly have to say things like, "Women≠feminist" and "Patriarchy ≠ men doing stuff to women". I do see this dynamic in reverse alive and well in MRAs too, and to a lesser extent, here.

I don't think that is the example you think it is. When I asked people actually involved in custody cases today, they said that discrimination against men was very rare, and usually it was more of an issue of who wanted the kids or were capable of taking care of them. I would agree with underlying issues about society thinking children belong with their mother as opposed to their father, but that blade cuts both ways.

It shouldn't be that way at all. But the harsh reality is that yes, sometimes, in order to lift up one side you must crush the other. No, don't hold back. Be honest with me. /s Honestly, I don't think this is the case most of the time, are really hardly ever at all. Society is very well capable to address two issues at once, and men's and women's issues are very rarely in actual conflict.

I totally see the concept of empathy fatigue. We simply don't have the capacity to engage with every horrible issue. On this subject, men's and women's issues seem to be extremely linked though. And because of this, they are often compared and contrasted. I think they are two components of a larger category. It isn't like engaging with both racism and world hunger, it is more like engaging with black and brown racism IMHO.

I agree that the logic is stupid. She is trying to show that men don't like it, so why would women like it? Not a great thing to do IMHO. There was one point where she pats a man's butt, which I think is SA, the rest is just cringy personal space stuff.

Is there a link? The only reference I could find was her intentionally moving past men by touching their backs/waists to move them out of the way, in the same way some men do to see their reactions. I agree that that is immature (also the men who do that), but I wouldn't call that SA.

I think 'anything-wing' makes you sound extreme in that way. Right-wing sounds like you dropped out of high school, left-wing sounds like you hug trees. I prefer the term progressive, because I want to move forward, rather than backward.

She talks about lots of things: Male SA victims False rape accusations Men not being taught to share their emotions Paternity leave Having to earn manhood Men being the primary victims of violence I would say that she is not a scholar, but she is knowledgeable about the subject and able to talk about it in a witty and entertaining way.

I think that we definitely have a social paradigm that influences the way we view and react to gender stereotypes that is hurtful to both men and women. Many feminists call this patriarchy. I wish there was a better word for it that didn't seem to imply that it is about men in power, because I believe it is really an emergent property. Not something that was consciously engineered or enforced by anyone.

Of thought, yes, not of gender or skin color. Both. Gender and skin color inherently give you different perspectives. This isn't just virtue signaling, it is well-established. They also all want you in lockstep with no opinion of your own. Who is the 'they' you are referencing?

Looking at your post history, you seem to like to argue a lot. I do like debating people because I think people are wrong a lot and people have lost the art of having reasonable debates when they have different opinions. It is funny to think that that is a bad thing on a post specifically about debunking something. I do debate in good faith. If I misinterpreted what you said, that is fine.

Personally, I don't see a point in having programs that encourage men and women to pursue different fields. Highly disagree. Diversity makes teams better. Study after study shows this. Also, while STEM jobs are high-paying, they are also hard to get and rare. Also, traditionally masculine jobs like manufacturing are shrinking dramatically. Meanwhile, HEAL jobs are rapidly growing. Men not entering these fields means more unemployment for men. If women, on average, tend to prefer healthcare, I do…

I think there are policy and program decisions that can be made to nudge society towards more equity. For example, we can have programs that encourage women to join STEM fields, where social bias says women are not good at math. We can have programs that encourage men to join rapidly growing HEAL fields (Health Education Administration and Literacy), where society says these professions are feminine. We can increase benefits for both maternity and paternity leave, so that having children is not …

Wouldn't that be assumed in a false allegation of rape? What other type of scenario are you suggesting? If it is simply mistaken identity, then wouldn't everyone agree that the woman shouldn't be punished? Also, if it is in civil court, the burden proof would still be 'preponderance of evidence'.

The 'myth' is that the uncontrolled gender pay gap (what you described in your first paragraph) is often conflated with the controlled gender pay gap (where men and women work the same job with the same experience for the same amount of time). When the 77-cents-on-the-dollar statistic is brought up, this needs to be addressed. The gender pay gap is a complicated issue though.

So . . . a linguistical argument? Maybe you should have studied linguistics better then. Any 'archy' type word doesn't require a single person to fulfill the role specified.

I just don't think you are being honest with me right now.

You also stated that false accusations don't happen with little to no consequences which undermines the seriousness. There's plenty of stories where they happen with little to no consequences.

You have to be proven to lie to get punished. Tell the actual victims this. I don't know what you are referring to with this statement. There is no context. If you are talking about slander, you don't need 'beyond a reasonable doubt' evidence, you need 'preponderance of evidence' because it is a civil suit. At least in the US that is how it works. If you want it to be a criminal issue, yes, you need 'beyond a reasonable doubt', which is as it should be. But criminal court is not the only remedy.

That's only true if you specifically define rape as "being penetrated" which the FBI has been guilty of. At that point, of course most rapists are going to be men. I have never heard anyone seriously argue that most rapists were women. Even where men are SA victims, the perpetrators are still more likely to be male.

No, when you're shaming men's emotions, that's toxic masculinity. . . Incorrect. That is nowhere near the definition of toxic masculinity.

The definition I used is from Science Direct, and is literally the first link when you Google 'patriarchy definition'. Source

It means men have to compete harder and harder to meet the expectations to ensure that they're able to get and hold on to the limited number of places opening up for men in an equity-focused economy. I don't think the data suggests the level of struggle you are referring to. If young men are struggling, it is because of a new education gap. Not because of an equity-focused DEI economy. So ultimately I think one of the big part of the issues, is because people do hold on so hard to the oppressor/…

This is just hyperbole and doesn't even deserve a response. You do seem very worked up about this and emoting a lot of extreme statements that are more hypothetical than true. I suggest either taking a break from he internet, or hanging out is some spaces like r/bropill to get some help.

That's like saying Natzism hurts Natzis too. Being rich hurt rich too etc. I think you just disagree on the definition of what patriarchy is then. Patriarchy doesn't mean 'all men have all the power'. Here is one definition of patriarchy that I think is more accurate. Patriarchy is a system of relationships, beliefs, and values embedded in political, social, and economic systems that structure gender inequality between men and women. Attributes seen as “feminine” or pertaining to women are under…

The problem is.. we are told "The Patriarchy Benefits and Hurts men" I agree with that statement btw. who then further go on to victim blame all men by claiming that ALL the issues men face are cause by "The Patriarchy I see what you are trying to say, but this is rather hyperbolic. and because men invented "The Patriarchy" its out fault.. I have never heard anyone claim this. Nobody thinks that any man alive is responsible for creating the patriarchy. Patriarchy was an emergent social system th…

I don't know what you mean by 'matriarchy'. Nobody is advocating for that. What we want is equity. You don't need to convince me that the patriarchy has hurt men too, as that is what your list is of. You can see my list of how patriarchy harms men, as well as my list of how patriarchy harms women. It harms both genders.

In my mind, I separate feminism from feminists quite a bit. The concept of feminism has and will help men. Patriarchy definitely hurts men as well as women. Many feminists (not all though) though are hurt women lashing out at men, and want to view men as in the wrong in every scenario.

I never got the whole, 'men's issues are caused by other men' issue. Innocent people are still victims even if that is true. Men are still in danger. It doesn't matter who the perpetrator is.

If female-on-male rape and domestic violence are very similar in numbers to male-on-female rape and domestic violence Do you have a source for that? I have not seen statistics that the numbers are similar.

This is actually pretty consistent from various sources over time. I have also heard that roughly half of women have experienced sexual violence at some point in their lives. Obviously, it depends on how you define sexual violence, and how you obtain the data. The numbers are not small though.

The time period we are talking about was 2000-2010. I don't think the draft was on most people's minds. The education part is probably true though.

Seriously. The time period we are talking about is 2000-2010. We aren't talking about ancient history.

We aren't talking about a hundred years ago, we are talking about 2000-2010!

Is there a reason you don't think it is likely that young men could have been more liberal for a time? I just think it is odd that your first thought was, 'This is incorrect, let me think of a reason this would be incorrect'.

Why is your first assumption that the data is somehow wrong or misleading, rather than that for a certain period of time men were more liberal than women?

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
