Unsurprising, the progressive left has been a welcoming home to psychopaths for a while now. They only get exposed when the clamour gets too loud to suppress, as with Harvey "plant pot" Weinstein.

I think you have misunderstood this sub. Gender roles adversely affect both men and women. Historically women's agency was undervalued, their opinions, their labor, they were excluded from political power, and so on. In addition to these injustices, historically men's lives have been undervalued, and also their importance in child-raising. They've been expected to do dangerous jobs, and ultimately to die in war if their society demands it. They're expected to work long hours to support their fam…

The problem has a name: intersectional feminism, as distinct from equity feminism, which is what most people think of when they think about feminism (equality between the sexes). Intersectional feminism's worldview is that human interaction is a hierarchy of oppressor groups and oppressed groups, and the people at the top oppressing everyone else are straight white non-Muslim males. The people at the bottom change with the times, but currently, it is transgender women. In this intersectional wor…

First, to be clear, there is a lot to dislike about Damore’s memo. He demonstrated, at a bare minimum, a profound lack of judgment and what appears to be very poor self-awareness. The fact that his ultimate argument continually referenced his beleaguered status as a Silicon Valley employee whose politics tilt to the right Wasn't he beleaguered? He was fired and publicly vilified by his own employer for stating scientific facts that contradicted the intersectionalist ideology. (plus the fact that…

Wow. Do you think you could quantify how prevalent this is in US corporate culture? It would be very interesting to quantify this by size of company. Perhaps this explains why startups can win against large companies. The big companies just can't compete once the identitarian socialism creeps in and takes over.

Yes, that's actually quite a succinct explanation of the way Damore's argument is consistently misrepresented, especially by "reputable" news organizations. It's fairly convincing evidence that every last one of these journalists are either incompetent, dishonest or both.

Gender equity is equality of outcomes. I don't agree with this definition of gender equity, and I don't think we should give the identitarians control of this term so easily. Gender equity and equality both mean "equality of opportunity", and anyone who seeks to conflate this with equality of outcome should be corrected.

Like I said on the NYTimes article, I wish this lie would die. Take issue with his conclusions or hell even the science, but don't misrepresent his conclusions. These hacks simply don't care. They don't want to know that they are misrepresenting the facts. The question is: what can we do about it? Does CNBC have any kind of ombudsman or process for reporting errors?

This article is so full of obvious misrepresentations of the men's rights movement, it reminds me of a North Korean press release. Don't journalists have fact-checkers anymore, or do they get a pass on accuracy when they're acting as pro-identitarian propagandists? And what happened to fact checking organizations?

If they are different then they are unequal. You still have not even tried to get around that issue. I've explained repeatedly that people can be different but equal. I'm done with you.

So you agree that equality is currently impossible. No, I haven't agreed with that and I don't agree with that. Equality is both a direction and a destination. We must always be striving to move towards it, even if it's difficult. Negative. I'm viewing it as a competition between societies. As long as that holds true, we need women in order to reproduce to have the soldiers for the next war. Because of that, we can't treat women as individually disposable as we do men; nor can we hold men as ind…

Because we can't do it. We're humans. That's not true at all, we've made lots of progress towards it, we just aren't there yet. Might makes right; numbers make might; women make numbers. You're still viewing this as a zero-sum game between the genders, where there must be a winning gender and a losing gender. That's not how the world actually works. Both genders are on the same side. The enemies are misogynists (like intersectional feminists) and misandrists (like you). But those enemies can bec…

It's not a generalization to say that everyone, male or female, can be a victim at times. That's a truism.

Then men don't really have it. So men don't have the right to an abortion? Where is the law or court ruling that says men can't have an abortion? Men have a penis, women have a vagina. Yes, I've already explained multiple times that people can be different but still equal. Why do you have such trouble with this concept? It's really not complicated or controversial. Because there are many different factors to measure, and you have excluded them all except one. You may be equally of the same speci…

Because that's working out so well right now, isn't it? We're not doing it yet. We'd be a lot better off if we did.

How do you give both genders the right to an abortion? Last I checked men didn't actually give birth. Men probably do have the right to an abortion, they're just very unlikely to need one for the biological reason you helpfully point out. Now you can give men something like legal paternal abondonment. Give them the legal option to not lay claim to the child and it's welfare, but that is not equal to abortion. They are different rights. If the man intentionally gets a woman pregnant, can he then …

So what's your answer to enforcing men's responsibilities on women? Just treat people the same way you would if they were a different gender. It's easy.

So what's your answer to enforcing men's responsibilities on women... or are women just "more equal" than men? We should all have the same rights and responsibilities, regardless of gender.

Yes, it does. If you're not interchangeable... if you are not "the same", then you are not equal. That doesn't make sense. Am I interchangeable with LeBron James? Hell no I'm not, I don't know the first thing about playing basketball. Similarly, he probably isn't as good at building machine learning systems as I am. We're different. But am I equal to LeBron James, as a human? Do I deserve justice as much as he does? Is my pain equal to his pain? Of course I am / I do / it is!

Who is it that the men's rights movement blame? Women? Other men? Themselves? Something vague like "society" or "the system"? Who is their oppressor? I reject the whole oppressor/oppressed moral framework. This ideology is called "intersectionalism". It is currently the dominant ideology in our country, and it is fundamentally bigoted. Intersectionality has two pillars. One is correct, the other is wrong. People can be oppressed due to their social identity (gender/race/etc). This is true, and i…

So men are doing all those things to themselves Genders don't do things, a gender doesn't have agency. People do things. For example, I'm not responsible for the crimes of other men just because I'm a man, any more than I'm responsible for the crimes of other people with birthdays in February or other people whose social security numbers happen to be prime numbers.

Men and women are not equal, they are complementary That's a false dichotomy and a trap. Saying people are "equal" doesn't mean that they are "the same". We're all different, we are diverse, but we are all equally deserving of justice, and fair treatment, irrespective of gender, race, sexuality, or anything else we don't control. Don't make the mistake of mixing up "equality" and "sameness". You can believe in equality without believing that we're all the same.

Well, feminism isn't just one thing of course - although I would still argue that the various versions have more in common than they do differences. Are there feminists who are a moral equivalent of MRAs, people that focus on injustices against women but without holding "men" responsible for these injustices (or supporting policies that imply men are responsible)? What are they called? Or are they, by definition, not feminists? i.e. feminists that refuse to accept trans-women as women and who in…

Apologies, I'll try to restate: Is feminism a "type" of intersectionality?
/r/MensRights07/08/17 07:17 PM

the criticisms of mainstream feminism made by the intersectionalists are remarkably similar to (if not the same as) the criticisms of mainstream feminism made by many people on this sub and in the MRM generally. That's interesting, I didn't realize there was a split between intersectionalists and feminists. And it's easy to see why the intersectionalists did that, it's hard to justify being solely focussed on women's problems when there are clearly other social identities experiencing bigotry an…

I get that intersectionality is, in effect, a generalization of the feminist idea of collective male complicity (aka patriarchy) to other groups. So, in a sense, while feminism might predate intersectionality, it is still a special case of it? I think that's what I meant with my original question.

As I understand it, "intersectionality" boils down to two ideas: People with particular social identities can suffer injustices as a result of their social identities. This is clearly true, due to bigotry of various forms, although it isn't the only source of injustice. Social identities can bear responsibility for injustices suffered by others, this is called "privilege" This second part is not true because a social identity such as "male" doesn't have agency, and thus cannot bear responsibilit…

I suspect the author didn't anticipate the reaction, perhaps due to men, on average, having lower mirror neuron activity. But seriously, there is a showdown coming between dogma and rationalism, and it just kicked into high-gear in Silicon Valley. I think this could be a lot more consequential than people realize.

It baffles me that someone who is being attacked in the court of public opinion, as this guy was, would think that all they need to do is stay quiet and lie low, and it will go away. That just makes them look guilty. If, once the alleged victim began her public protest, this guy had come out aggressively and said "hey, look at these messages she sent me after the alleged rape, would a rape victim have sent messages like these to her rapist?" - then she would have been stopped in her tracks. By s…

Atheist in Texas here. Not really. I think people have a rather caricatured view of the US/Texas with regard to religion. Don't forget - the atheist experience is broadcast from Texas.

I see, and how specifically do you "crush" a human? Were you thinking that you would knock them to the ground and stamp on their head? Or perhaps use some kind of crushing device, maybe a vice? Isn't that a lot more trouble than having a discussion?

I'd say the best move is to shame them with questions: "What do you mean by 'man child'?" They might respond: "A man who enjoys activities typically enjoyed by children or teenagers" To which you could reply: "Isn't there anything you did as a child or teenager that you still enjoy?" And so on. The best way to respond to this kind of thing is, firstly, not to get angry, but to calmly explore what they mean with fairly neutral questions, and in the process expose its stupidity.

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