I believe it, because 50% of white women voted for Trump, and 50% of them - I shit you not - consider themselves feminists. Because the right side of the political spectrum is motivated by fear, cruelty, and resentment, I can absolutely see those women using "feminism" to be total assholes to men. Additionally, we all need to remember that there is a percentage of all of this discourse originates with bad actors - the same thing that has been going on since the 2016 election. Some of this shit i…

Red pill garbage makes a lot more sense if you flip everything they say upside down, because 99% of it is projection. They're just accusing women of doing/thinking/being the things that they hate about themselves and are holding them back. Once you start turning everything around, it all fits together.

We may be relatively similar regarding the degree of anger and/or dissatisfaction we express, but that's about it. Feminism developed out of oppression and has been organized around the fight for the legal, personal, and human rights that were long denied women. Red pill ideology is based on the defense of male privilege, which is rightfully being eroded by women's progress, and doesn't advocate for men as much as it blames women. Feminism has established fields of academic and scientific resear…

No, please - I'm enjoying this glimpse into the excuses you make for yourselves. Tell me: do you ever take responsibility for anything you do? Maybe that's just another male privilege - the luxury of telling yourself that everything is women's fault.

Actually they did. Most of the meat prehistoric peoples ate came from small game, which was usually hunted by women and children as they wouldn't be required to stray far. Men hunting mammoths wasn't a regular thing because it was more arduous and yielded a shitload of meat. Sorry to burst your bubble. Maybe one day you guys will actually start educating yourselves before you start talking out your ass. I recommend The Dawn of Everything by David Graeber and David Wengrow, and The Chalice and th…

Women's suffering makes billions of dollars yearly - it's called the porn industry. Every year, hundreds of thousands of women are trafficked into sexual slavery where they have their rapes recorded and put on the Internet so that men can be spared the inconvenience of masturbating to their imaginations. So however much men are suffering, at least women aren't fucking masturbating while they fucking watch their humiliation. Pathetic.

Not a "feminist idea," historical fact. Ideas about masculinity and femininity have been continuously changing throughout history. The gender norms with which we are familiar originate in the Victorian era, only 200 years ago. Has it ever occurred to you that men have zero chance of resolving their gendered injustices if you insist on believing this inaccurate bullshit? You're making the exact same mistake that men have been making since the mid-1800s, and it's going to do the exact same thing i…

Men are not all the same, right?

I honestly have a sprinkle of respect for you for at least being honest about your self-centeredness and contempt for women.

"Boys will be boys" keeps the bar set lower for boys when it comes to what is considered acceptable behavior, how much responsibility they "can handle," and is generally a prefab excuse that winds up allowing boys to remain immature.

Shit - I forgot an important thing: The situations that you listed may appear to favor women, but that's partly because almost none of that stuff was discussed in public before 2nd wave feminism in the 60s/70s. So the only time we've ever heard about that shit has been when women have been agitating about it - and if they succeed in getting legislation passed about an issue that only they have been talking about, it does give the appearance of bias or privilege. But it's basically a mirage. Also…

I feel you - this shit is super complex and sounds contradictory. I'll explain my two cents worth and hopefully make some kind of sense: Patriarchy isn't as simple as "all men oppress all women." For one thing, patriarchy couldn't have been established without SOME degree of cooperation from women, so there were most likely certain privileges afforded to women who colluded with male supremacy, which means there was a hierarchy created amongst women so that not all were oppressed to equal degrees…

The reason you think this is such a devastating comeback is due to your own ignorance. You're basically just saying the gender equivalent of "The earth is actually flat/hollow" and, when no feminist will bother wasting their time by writing the doctoral thesis that a proper response to your nonsense would require, you simply assume that you're right. What I don't fucking get is how you don't realize that educating yourself about how laws, societal norms, concepts of gender etc were developed and…

it's the men that are being robbed of their rights for things. So my question is how can we say we want equal rights and then take rights away. If this were true, it still doesn't matter because men hold the majority of political power and thus make the laws. Your problem is not with men or women, it's with patriarchy that exists only for the benefit of a tiny handful of people (mostly men but some women, too) and shits on everyone else.

Expecting men to perform the mundane adult routine of identifying your problems, examining the part you play in them, and adjusting your behavior/attitude etc in order to have better relationships with the people in your life is now discrimination?

What we know is that men view sex as love / it is how men bond with us I don't dispute this because there is research that backs it up. However, I submit that it's a symptom of men's emotional repression and the garbage stigma about them expressing any kind of tenderness, not something they just do because they're male. Also, this seems to set the bar quite low for men's emotional contribution to a relationship. Like, junior high low. And I can only speak for myself, but I find expressions of lo…

You're getting snowed, sister. The idea that men have extremely high sex drives and are largely motivated by the pursuit of women has only been around for a few hundred years, being firmly cemented by the Victorian era. For about a thousand years before that, it was women who were said to be incorrigible nymphomaniacs who were eternally chained to the flesh. This wasn't any more accurate than it is about men today, but women were still considered property at the time and their supposed hypersexu…

What is the substantive difference, then, between sex and masturbation? Because it seems like getting some relief so that one can study could be most easily accomplished by one's self, if the implication is that men just need some kind of physical release of tension.

I am pushing back hard on the notion that men (or women, for that matter) ever need sex. They do not. Strictly speaking, a need is something that one can't live without - food, water, shelter, warmth. We do have a general need to propagate the species, but that doesn't mean that every individual absolutely has to have sex. Untold millions of humans have been celibate all of their lives, some of whom were so successful that they achieved lasting fame, such as Nikolai Tesla and Isaac Newton. The r…

I will grant you that the Rad Fems are probably more honest than the mainstreams versions of feminism that exist today. Thank you! I really appreciate that - I literally can't remember the last time I heard anyone say anything nice about us! The main reason radical feminism appeals to me is because I saw it as giving me a "loophole" to advocate for men, too, since patriarchy is shit for all of us.

Interesting question. I'm not sure that it makes you a misogynist, in that you don't seem to actively hate women. However, I don't believe that it's possible for a man who utilizes sex workers to truly recognize women as "real" human beings, since they believe they have the right to more or less treat them as temporary sexual slaves. If money weren't involved as a means of coercion, the sex would be non-consensual in virtually every case. I personally find it extremely disturbing that men can ev…

From studying feminism I realized that, even though I was not a "girly girl," a surprising amount of my identity was still shaped by influences from traditional femininity as well as from my peer group.

Yes, if you can't get laid you are a loser as a man, it's a brutal truth. You do realize you only care about this to get the approval of other men, right? The only people that consistently hold you to the "if you can't get laid you are a loser" standard are other men. It's not about the women, and only marginally about sex; it's about trying to increase your status with your bros. Women are only pawns. Patriarchy is homoerotic like that, it's kinda funny, really.

The problem with your post is that you don't know what you're talking about, and here's why: At a certain point in life, often in college or in their late 20s/30s, a lot of women get sick of the tsunami of misogyny they deal with every day and start wanting to know how in the hell the world got this way and how it can be made better.

Men don't define their self-worth only by sex, stop womansplaining to men how they define themselves.

Thats like telling women to not put value into societies beauty standards. They have been shown it since they are young and it has been reinforced while they were growing up. And this is precisely why feminism came about and why it has been such a powerful force in the world: it helps women realize that all of that is just so much bullshit that was dreamt up by men centuries ago and does not define us. If men would bother to actually read what feminists think, they would realize that feminism is…

You girls have no idea what testosterone is like. I'm so tired of the MuH tEsToStErOnE argument. Not only is it still not understood exactly how testosterone works to affect the male libido, but estrogen is also crucial for them. Hormones are not an acceptable excuse for shitty behavior. Sex is healing for us, literally! We don't crave it because we are perverts, we crave it because it makes us whole, it resets us, it allows us to focus all our energy on other things.

Again - you're enough as you are. Men don't need women to be "real men;" why give us so much power over you? Feminism spurred women to better understand the concept of femininity and the ways that it was holding us back. Men would benefit so, so much from an analogous liberation movement that would free them from their dependence on women and controlling women. Go work on establishing that and worry about yourselves instead of worrying about us.

Second wave feminists, such as Mary Daly and Andrea Dworkin, often spoke of this possibility as giving men the ability to finally eliminate women entirely, which has long been their ultimate goal.

We're told there's this systematic privilege for men that's existed and been promoted for centuries. This is true, but it's an oversimplification, because the reality is that not all men are as privileged as other. There is a hierarchy in which the men on the higher rungs shit on the men below them, and there is constant competition over status. Most men do not reap the full benefits of male supremacy/patriarchy. In fact, it damages men almost to the degree it does women, but it's easy to overlo…

I think the notion that women don't like vulnerable men comes from fear of intimacy more than reality.

Every time we interact with someone there is some kind of emotional response going on, even if we're not consciously aware of it.

Or just stop defining masculinity by sex. It seems like that's all it's about now, it's devolved into the lowest common denominator. And the sex most seem to want is just empty self-gratification. There is this idea that one can have sex without any emotional involvement, which is just not a thing. There are emotions at play in every human interaction - that's why they exist.

It's a remnant of slavery and white men's obsession with their fear of their black property having sex with their female property.

One of the points of having sex is to be given an orgasm by another person. That's part of what makes it so pleasurable - it's different than the same old masturbation you're used to. Not only that, but giving someone else an orgasm is also pleasurable and hot as hell - it's half of the whole shebang. Can get herself to orgasm? I mean, what do you even think sex is? You just thrust your dick in and out and it's up to her to figure out how to make it feel good? Are you aware that about 80% of wom…

Women aren't taught to center their personal concept of femininity and their entire fucking identities around sex and sexually exploiting men. Men get taught the exact opposite, and internet porn has made it so much worse in a bunch of ways. Women don't have an issue with seeing men as fellow human beings and generally take an actual interest in the lives of the men close to them, so they are more likely to see sex as a mutual activity and something that enhances relationships/intimacy.

Unbelievable. Anyone but men, huh? Why don't you set up a Google news alert for "pornography" if you're confused about who's to blame. Every single day it is nothing but men getting arrested for child porn. So if men want to feel better out in public, then they need to BE better and hold other men accountable for being better. It's really sickening how so many men will literally sacrifice anything and everything simply to protect their egos and their belief in their own supremacy. It's gross.

If the choice is between someone's feelings getting hurt and a kid getting abducted, the priority should be obvious.

Once again: it is a literal impossibility to fantasize about rape, because the act of fantasizing requires a degree of control that is fundamentally lacking in an actual rape. Fantasy is a completely mental activity and is thus entirely in the fantasizer's control; it can be no other way. Rape by definition is out of someone's control.

Because they're trying to force women to fix men's problem.

Actually, many of the traits of traditional masculinity are a performance intended for other men and have very little to do with women, who are seen as pawns or prizes.

From historic times, men have the goal of studying, working hard, and becoming a desirable man so that a woman can 'pick' you. Women weren't "picking" anyone until around the late 1800s, when arranged marriages were finally replaced by companionate marriage.

Most women like sex just as much as men do. The whole bit about men having such higher sex drives than women is a myth, and it needs to die. Women have several very good reasons to turn down sex. There is always the risk of pregnancy, first of all. When we choose to be sexually intimate with a man we also run the risk of being assaulted, raped, or even murdered, since the men that we already know are much more likely to do those things to us. Additionally, some women don't like to have sex on th…

I think that's really astute. The thing is that we can't tell which man might hurt us just by looking, you know? We have to be super careful. One in four of us will get raped/assaulted anyway. Another thing I'm hearing from a LOT of women is that they don't want to date men because they're disgusted by the porn they watch, it makes the men absolute shit in bed, and what really scares and infuriates me is that in the past few months I've seen heard several women say that men started choking them …

How about we just stop slipping misogynistic insults into these kind of quips altogether? Almost every insult that men invoke against one another double as degrading to women as well. Bitch, pussy, motherfucker, cunt, bastard, son of a bitch, and all of the sophomoric homophobic slurs. And what are those insults implying? That the insulted man is no better than a women. In other words, the worst thing you can call a man is a woman. But by all means - keep telling me how women are already equal i…

Why don't men focus instead on WHY women are leaving dating apps in droves? That's the real question here, if men would have the vagina to ask themselves.

Sigh...women are just as aroused by visual stimuli as men are. In fact, women get turned on by a much wider array of images and sexual acts than men do. The reason our attraction appears to be different is because men basically see women as vending machines that exist to meet their needs from moment to moment - usually by affirming their "masculinity." We are things that dispense validation. All the garbage about men having these super high sex drives is all bullshit. What men want is validation…

If they treat me with respect, I treat them with respect. How about we just treat people with respect, period? Social interactions aren't strictly quid pro quo, they are most often relational - they build relationships. I hate how relentlessly selfish and transactional the internet has made everyone - including me, this is just a general complaint. How about we just show everyone the same respect that we'd appreciate being shown ourselves, and then we can always simply walk away if someone doesn…

Yes, unfortunately there are still plenty of those women. I suspect the majority of them reside in the demographic alongside the 50% of white women who voted for Trump - 50% of whom actually think that they're "feminists," whatever in the fuck they think that means. My definition of feminism doesn't include "colluding with the patriarchy to oppress other women because I'm a terrified, pants-pissing bigot," but maybe I just missed that particular Dworkin quote, lol... (Just to clarify, I'm a whit…

Maybe when men give a single solitary fuck about women's suffering - except our suffering gets your fucking dicks hard and you call it porn. You jerk off to our misery, so pardon me if I'm less than sympathetic for men's psychic anguish. I'm so sick of listening to men whine and pout about their problems without doing any fucking introspection to see how your behavior affects everyone else! It's selfish, narcissistic bullshit, and it's a slap in the fucking face to women who are actually losing …

like a vagina is the stamp of approval men need to be taken seriously by society. That is something that men did to themselves. Thank patriarchy. Those are the kinds of "privileges" you're fighting so hard to keep. How long are you guys going to keep bashing your heads up against this wall before you finally realize that you've made your own prison?

What is your point? "Women are wonderful and men are trash"?? No. My point was that I didn't just "jump right to rape and murder" in my comment above, but rather that too many men often do. I never said that men don't struggle with injustices, nor did I claim that women have no issues of our own to address.

1 in 4 women have been the victim of sexual assault. 1 in 9 women were molested as children - the vast majority by family members, i.e. men they should be able to trust. Every day in America, 4 women are murdered by their current or former male domestic partner. Just because you don't know shit about the reality of women's lives doesn't mean that I need therapy. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Thanks! It feels really good to have my feelings - especially my anger - validated by a man (especially on the internet!) This is all i think many women want - for men to listen to us, acknowledge when we speak the truth, and validate our feelings. They don't have to go out and change the world, they only have to take us seriously. This is just my opinion, but I think it takes a much "bigger" and better man to have conversations like these with women, because you're making yourself vulnerable to…

I'm not saying that some women don't do the same thing - I'm not sure that I agree with "boss bitch," but Susie Homemaker/Becky Home-Ecky is spot on - but not only is it more prevalent with men, but women aren't going out raping and murdering men because they aren't making us feel "womanly" enough.

Hell ya, I've felt toxic before - I'm pretty sure it's always been when I've been super pissed at men. There have probably been 4-5 times in the past 5 years when I just said some super over-the-top things, most of which I'm not proud of, one or two of which I really meant but should have kept to myself. Because of those incidents ive been working on finding healthier ways of dealing with my anger. No - that's not honest. For dealing with my rage. I have a lot of it - I think most women do - and…

Relationship are for losers; and this is easy to prove as the ltr-man (a.k.a. physically unattractive/average man) has to provide far more to get sex without getting much else in return, tipping the balance of win/loss towards the loss compared to what a good looking man got from the same woman in a FWB-situation. I showed this post to my husband, and he wondered if you'd ever really had much interaction with women or have had any friendships with them, and I have to agree. I've never had any fe…

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