This is what women tell each other without any thought into how the government actually treats men as resources. If men could get pregnant, Men of childbearing age would need permission to leave the country, and birth control for men would be illegal with a 5 digit fine for breaking it.

https://old.reddit.com/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates/comments/1iek6g6/gender_bias_on_reddit_a_sentiment_analysis_of_140/?ref=share&ref_source=link This redditor did something similar to r/relationship_advice, a subreddit with a lot of overlap, and the results are exactly what you'd expect, that misandry is the mainstay there. It's not a published study like the one that did sentiment analysis for feminism gendercritical mensrights and incel, but seemingly studies trying to measure misandry never get f…

No, men are one of the few groups with a well proven out-group bias.

And of course she quotes Lundy Bancroft, "domestic violence expert" who fun fact, hates male victims so much he does not like the term domestic violence, instead he prefers when it was explicitly gendered to exclude male victims. From the horses mouth, Twenty years or so ago, we started to hear that it was important to talk more about male victims. The argument was that it would give our movement against domestic violence more appeal, because men would realize that it can happen to them too. We’…

The real answer is because men are the socially accepted group to commit violence against.

So, these are numbers that only exist from the most sexist sources available. Your source cites the department of justice in 2002 for it's 99% claim, but that is of course including data from before the idea that men could be raped. It was 2013 before the U.S. would change it's definition of rape to include male victims: Previously, offense data for forcible rape was collected under the legacy UCR definition: the carnal knowledge of a female forcibly and against her will. Beginning with the 2013…

Hinge is Ironically fucking named for me today. Opened it up, first profile is a woman with a picture of a hat saying "3rd wife material", one of her prompts is just "please shut the fuck up". Second profile is a lady with a voicenote straight up trauma dumping about being robbed and knocked unconscious. One of her prompts is literally just asking for guys to leave a 1 star review on a business that fired her.

"Something I don't do" Yeah. See, this complete lack of nuance in that assertion is exactly why I think you do in fact do it. Every "accusation" I have thrown at you has come with the implicit implication I could be wrong about it. I have given myself room to be wrong, because I do not and cannot completely understand the circumstances. I am doing that purposefully so that I am not doing what I'm accusing you of.

I mean swapping out water for milk does alter the chemistry of the baked good… Point missed. I'm saying that asking clarifying questions can be good and get you past giving a just world fallacy, but it by no means does on it's own. You can absolutely still be falling into it despite that, if you are asking questions looking for something to poke a hole in their story. Personality is a good example you brought up. You can't really judge their personality or vibe, so assessing any issue to that un…

Alright, but if you're asking questions to find something you can latch onto to then say the person is wrong, it can still be a just world fallacy, just extrapolated a little bit. If we go back to the bread, there is a difference between "Well, did you bake it in a Kitchenmaster 4000" "No I used my oven, a Whirlpool" "Aha, that's your problem, see you did it wrong! The recipe would have worked if you used a Kitchenmaster." And "Well, did you substitute any ingredients?" "Yeah, I wanted it to be …

You aren't wrong, people really don't trust narrators here. Which is part of why they use the just world fallacy. Not trusting the narrator doesn't suddenly make the world just, it just obfuscates the problem. The correct response to "Well I tried this and it didn't work" is not "Well you did it wrong" or "Well the plans broken let me entirely reconsider". It's "Well, while I understand that it might not have worked out for you, and it will not work for everyone, it is still the generally best p…

The "Just world fallacy" does not only apply to people being good and bad, it's an argumentative fallacy. It's like this, if you write out a recipe for making bread, and then somebody follows that recipe to the letter, but the bread doesn't rise because the amount of yeast in the air is different from the environment of the person who wrote the recipe, then the person following the recipe might say "this recipe doesn't work" and the person who wrote it might say "you are bad baker". This is the …

It's hard to keep up appearances when you don't have a house to do so from. You probably have, but you didn't realize it because the guy who is handsome but lives out of a van in line in front of you at the grocery store isn't clockable as homeless from his appearance. Being visibly pathetic is how panhandlers and beggars get money. Pretty privilege is real in general, but when it comes to charity, people want to feel like that person needs their help. Have you seen any pretty homeless women?

Where? The worst I'm seeing is "condoms are better" and "You're wrong about the side effects" neither of which is really a lack of support for them, especially not in any regard to their opinion of paternal surrender.

The male pill is viable. And I asked why men don't support this. Who says they don't support it? Your evidence for them not supporting it is that they also support paternal surrender? "I like pancakes!" "Why do you hate waffles?" Kind of thinking there. Should women stop supporting abortion because female birth control exists? Or are those entirely seperate things in your mind in a way that this isn't? Wait, let me make it easier. What about maternal surrender? It's legal in all 50 states that a…

If the "male pill" was viable, i.e. offered significant contraceptive effect with tolerable side effects, it'd be a multi-billion dollar patent. And companies know it. That's why it gets millions in research funding and according to r/science has been "right around the corner" for decades.

Animals are capable of harm, humans are capable of healing. Dogs and cats have no concept of abuse or nuanced takes on violence. They are still only a step away from the law of the jungle. Hell, in dire enough circumstances, so are we. If you fuck around, you're going to find out. If your cat is truly attacking you for no reason, then take it to the vet and maybe a shelter.

You’re focusing on edge cases and emotional appeals instead of addressing the core argument. No I'm not, you are. You are focusing on abuse cases as if they are the norm and holding them up as "This is the risk", and that's a bullshit framing. The vast, overwhelming majority of cases of somebody getting the benefit of having a partner for security, is that their partner just helps them put when they needed it, they get back on their feet, and continue from there. That however, doesn't stir the r…

Even in my marriage, I still earn enough that I could afford my own place if needed. Yeah, but you put your money together and have nicer things than you could afford on your own, right? Economic benefit right there. While you say that you were raised not to be financially dependent, are you going to ask for divorce if you get laid off, because you'd rather stick to that than go against how you were raised? So like I said, I want to buy a house and I really wish I wasn't trying to do it alone. T…

What? Where did I say anything about an expiration date? I don't assume that a woman who relies on her partner's help to get back on her feet, would then break up with him after she has. That's psychotic. And there are definitely economic benefits to being in a relationship. Shit, being a single guy who wants to buy a house has made that very clear to me. Edit: i can see the mistake. When I said "needs it for a bit" I only meant the help, not the help and relationship.

That is an insane leap from your evidence to your argument. I can think of several complicating factors you'd have to adjust for before making that claim. Maybe its just socially rougher to be a single man than a single woman? 2 important test points, how happy are asexual aromantic men, and how do straight men's relationship satisfaction compare to gay men's? Maybe the inverse, being a married woman is just much easier than being a married man? Again, check against asexual aromantics, and lesbi…

When someone says, “A relationship can get you a place to stay and provide security,” they’re not talking about casual help. See that right there? Thats an assumption. A pretty far fetched one too. Plenty of people do get places to stay and stability from relationships, without purposefully trying to do it. Some people might look for a relationship with that motive in mind, that's rarer and I would hope anyone doing that is doing it temporarily to get back on their feet again, and not trying to …

Once you find the person you want to be with this entire benefit basically disappears. Kind of? Once you spend a dollar, you lose the dollar, but you still have the thing you spent it on. Once you get the career you'll keep until retiring, all the benefit of sexist hiring dissappears, but just like with the relationship, you still have that job, and you can't really know if it'll actually last so the potential for it to help is still there. Same goes for the home as well, really.

So OP said a relationship can get you a place to stay and security. You immedietely assumed that meant a completely dependent relationship, instead of just help, why? I'm not conflating dependence with help, you are making out all access to help to be dependence, when that's not true at all.

it’s a terrible long-term strategy. Why did you take the idea that a woman can depend on a man, and suddenly slippery slope it into becoming a stay at home partner reliant on their other half? It just as easily can be someone who needs it for a bit, and gets into a relationship to get that security, but then becomes self reliant again. That relationship can be "genuinely fulfilling" the entire time. There is a ton of willing help, that is just that, help. You aren't "handing over control" of you…

The pregnant woman statistic is so thoroughly over tread because it's misleading. The reason homicide is their number 1 cause of death is because a young woman making regular hospital visits and avoiding dangerous activities is incredibly safe in every other way. the homicide rate for pregnant women is a grand total of ~3 per 100,000. The homicide rate for a 18 year old boy just existing is ~46 per 100,000. Even if we do some napkin math and apply that ~90% of men are murdered by other men, that…

Ah, found some stats finally: 5% of women were victims only, 12% were perpetrators only, 27% participated in reciprocal violence, and 55% reported no IPV. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3775877/ So yes, it seems women also are more likely to be abusive during hard times like pregnancy, and at an even higher rate of 1 directional violence than men, though we can probably assume because of basic sexual dimorphism that results were worse for women.

So it's a 30% to 40% rise, for women. Although what I really wanted to see was how much that compares to men getting abused by pregnant women, because many of the factors I laid out apply to them too. Like financial hardship knows no gender. Sadly, I cannot find any statistics regarding that. Like, not even an off mention of it. Which is wild, you'd think one source would mention it just for comparisons sake, but I straight up can't find any. Also, you laid out 1 cause and of course this source …

Some of us know that that is a misandrist urban myth that was retracted and no follow up study has ever been able to replicate. But a lie that lets you hate who you already wanted to hate can get around the world twice before the truth can tie its shoelaces, so doctors still give misandrist advice.

doctors have to have a talk about a woman’s supportive group after a diagnosis Because a misandrist narrative was pushed, that you still believe in despite the narrative being false from the start.

I kinda agree with both of you. Gay men seem to be much more varied in what they find attractive, more outspoken about it, and more positive about it. I wish women treated men the way gay men do.

Almost every question in PPD is odd. Alright, fair. But also, most people ask them with some idea or theory in mind that they are trying to test.

You had me until "accuse women of thoughtcrime". This train of thought is way more demonizing towards men and way more excusing of women.

Perhaps this is an odd take, but I genuinely don't think there is much of anything wrong with being attracted to people or expressing it, as long as your still respectful about it. This is very clearly some sexual objectification, but they aren't hurting anyone with these comments. It's just that women, by a metric which cannot be measured or explained by anything other than vibes, are "overly sexualized" so it's more upsetting or something I guess.

100% agreed and you see it all the time. Men have an out-group bias, and most men care more about what women think of them personally, not them as part of a group.

It's only "socially conditioned" when women are sexually attracted to sexually attractive men I said neither that it only happens to women, nor did I put in this silly circular reasoning you did. Men have been able to select their partners based on what makes their dicks hard since the beginning of fucking time. That's such an incredibly out there take, …

I find this argument basically the equivalent of: "Boys will be boys". It's a non-sequiter to blame biology for something that is clearly and obviously somewhat socially conditioned. Yes, you should be sexually attracted to that quality relationship partner. Yes, many more women than claim so can and would be attracted to them, if that was the social conditioning they had. If that weren't true, you wouldn't see so many posts about single guys wearing fake wedding rings because women find them mo…

Language matters, not words. If you want to be persuasive and argue effectively, then the person you are talking to understanding your intentions is important. Twisting someone's words around into easier targets cheapens the argument for both sides. I think we are at our best, not just at arguing, but in making this more than just gender war bs, when we try to take the other opinion as seriously as we can. And that means fully understanding the arguments against your own, and asking for clarific…

I actually care, and that's why I think it's important not to throw out the tools we can use to understand them better, which seems to be the thing we are arguing about right now. Comparisons on who has it worse are a starting point for understanding what the problems are, who is having them, and what can be done about it. They are valuable.

But some inconveniences are worth keeping, because humans are weird like that. My cat has never done anything for me except snuggle and be cute, but I'll keep letting him inconvience me every day.

Neat bit of cynicism from a man currently carrying out a genocide, also happens to be very false. It's easy and alluring to boil people down to extreme pragmatists, but that's just not how people work. We have ideologies, compassion, and care. We do remember the weak.

A lot of this is just: "be kind and interested in him." and like yeah, ofc that works on everyone. It's missing the "be baseline attractive" part though. You could easily add a bit in here for going to the gym and getting a good figure, because that also works on pretty much all men. The only bit I do have a problem with is the bit about "just look at another man". That puposefully trying to invoke jealousy shit would have the absolute opposite effect on me.

I think for some reason it seems like we've erased any ability for a woman to be a sexual subject. A woman existing and being sexy is objectification, regardless of context or how much agency she actually had in that situation. People actually seem to think that women cannot be sexy except for the sake of being pleasurable to men. Until we can say that a man wanting to be loved isn't automatically objectifying women, women cannot be real people. Get rid of your misandrist view of men's gazes, an…

You've slightly misremembered your stat, it's 12% of men feel as attractive as they'd like to their partners, as opposed to almost 88% saying they would like their partners to do more, and a negligibly small percentage saying they do too much. Arguably that does mean the same thing, but I think it is an important difference.

I think heteropessism is bad in general, and effecting women in a terrible way.

Or "Straight women are the only group that has to date their natural predators". If that's the kind of messaging women are eating up, no wonder they are avoiding dating.

This sounds a lot like you don't actually care about the problem or it's causes, you just don't want anything to change so we should all accept that the cause is the one completely unchangeable and unavoidable one. And the one cause you are focusing on makes no sense as the cause, or else the effect would actually be correlated to it, and yet it's not.

Yeah, I agree with all that.

Especially not while they also seem to be the most effected by it.

The loneliness epidemic didn't start 50 years ago though. It is a problem of the last decade, maybe 2. So no, I don't accept that simply not needing to partner up is what's causing it, and definitely don't agree that it's a non-problem we should just wring our hands of and say nothing can be done about.
/r/PurplePillDebate27/06/24 06:26 PM

This is a disingenuous framing. The increasing amount of loneliness isn't coming from a population that had to marry out of necessity vs. a population that didn't, it's 2 populations that didn't have to marry out of necessity, so this as an explanation makes no sense. And yes, if things are going badly for a lot of people on a huge scale, it almost always because of a systemic issue.

Are you really trying to say that the reason dating is harder for men now is because they are worse potential partners, and nothing else? That's a misandrist take straight out of left field. All of those are things that matter because they've made it harder to socialize (dating apps, feminism(I agree here despite still being a feminist), social atomisation) or made it harder to get a relationship out of socializing (dating apps, high standards, social media) It takes more than being a good poten…

Most social progress comes at personal expense. When you've identified a problem, the next question should always be "What are you willing to give to solve it?" Money? Time?

Since the staff was overwhelmingly female, they could get away with all male staff only having male participants, but some male participants had to be given to female staff, so even though I'm sure they would have loved to prevent that, it was kind of impossible to actually do. Also, most participants…

Perfect answer, 10/10, no notes. Sort of related, but I wonder how much this applies to paradox of gendered suicide where women attempt more but men go through with it more. Like, men have to build up to much higher level of unhappiness to make an attempt, which leads to more certain outcomes.

I am honestly shocked to see that a woman has posted this. But yes, there are situations where I have taken precautions to avoid possibly being falsely accused. When I was working in social care, it was company policy that all men had to avoid ever being in a room with just 1 woman. (No such rule existed for women.) But I cannot for the life of me consider that entering those rooms would ever lead to anything worse than a bear attack, so no, I'm choosing woman, every time. Edit: I worded that we…

Hold on a minute there, because you changed things up a little. Are we talking about the amount of this that men do for each other, or for their spouses?

I hear you, but kindness isn't just one verb. Like, I'll help my brother move, but shit talk him all the way through it. My buddy will make fun of me for being broke, but buy me a drink. I get you, there are performative things people say where saying it is also doing it. Telling someone you are there for them, is part of being there for them. Asking about their life with genuine interest is part of caring. However these acts of care explicitly also express the care, so men don't do them. So yes…

I think the major problem with yours and Grid's understanding here, is that men don't express kindness to each other, but we are kind to each other.

Women more than men tend to navigate the world with a “i treat people with kindness they treat me with kindness” I think this overlooks something important, the indifference women treat men that they don't want to pursue them.

AFAIK, "no accountability" is hyperbole, but there definitely is a great degree of "benevolent sexism" given to women. It comes from Misogyny of course, and what it actually means and how far it goes varies by opinion.

It is possible to extend this to basically, every facet of life, but asking for how it manifests is a bit like asking "How long is a piece of string…

I believe they are talking about that old activity we are all striving for, the pursuit of happiness. Saying "it's not over" is a sign of hope, that you can still find happiness, saying it never began is doom posting because it means you don't believe you ever really had any chance of getting there in the first place.

What is included in “the chase”? Is it treating the woman as if she is a treasured and valued part of your life? Is it showing appreciation for her? Is it actively dating your partner? It's all those things, to the max degree possible.

I'm not sure you'd want to see the longer version tbh. For context I'm 25M, and I find myself attracted to older women, and so it was very much coming from a place of still thinking that grooming feeling is absolutely ridiculous.

I had typed up a much longer comment, but then near the end I stopped and considered how I'd feel if it was a much younger woman, the feeling that even if you don't mean to, considering any relationship with a girl of a certain age would still feel like grooming. I get it now, but I do still have to say that it still seems incredibly ridiculous to have that same feeling for anybody in early 20s that you aren't like a decade and a half older than.

The thread about women not being as badly shamed as men for their sexuality felt like I was reading something from some bizarro world that never left the 1950s. Then it clicked. Women don't realize how much men's sexuality is shamed, because they think that the ways men's sexuality is shamed is deserved, and therefore doesn't count.

Okay, you understand that there is a huge difference between "this is not just" and "This should be fixed by government influence", right? Like, cheating on your partner is bad. You deserve to not be cheated on. But nobody is saying that there should be government intervention in the case of cheating.

I agree with that, but I do think there is a gap between feeling jealous about somebody who didn't suffer as you did, and being disdainful about it. Like, slut shaming is bad, but I do think it's reasonable for a man to not want a relationship with a woman who would invoke that jealousy. And going back to the original point, I don't think any of that warrants it being called a complex or unrealistic expectation that men should be shamed for either.

So to summarize, and please correct me if I'm wrong here, you are saying that abuse and physical violence are more or less unrelated, and we can explain how women might be both the initiators of more physical violence, and also the recepients of more abuse? I'm sorry, but that simply does not track to me for how Violence is associated with abuse. Overall, coercive controlling behaviors were characteristic of individuals within violent relationships, regardless of their physical abuse status. The…

Okay, so first thing to keep in mid with the CDC's numbers, is that they all come from Surveys and self-reporting, not studies. And across the board, men are way more likely to under report their IPV for a myriad of reasons, mostly related to not being believed or seen as lesser because of it. Even then, when it comes to the CDC's numbers on physical violence: Women, Slightly more than 2 in 5 women (42.0% or 52 million) in the United States reported experiencing any physical violence by an intim…

What? I think you are just misunderstanding terminology here. Being "more likely to initiate violence" isn't talking about in an altercation, it's talking about who is more likely to initiate violence in a relationship. You really have to be on some kind of good shit to think that the only reason women would be more physically violent is because those pesky men keep forcing them to. That is victim blaming in the highest degree.

Firstly, your study doesn't actually show any research for the correlation between IPV and other forms of victimization of that women face. It just presupposes it all. That is laughably bad methodology, just saying why do women hit their partners more? Well women are stalked more, so that must be why, with no actual connection between those 2 things. Secondly, your study says this: However, other authors propose that some forms of controlling behaviors are equally likely to be used by women and …

All these misconceptions come from the asynchronous experience of OLD. Women describe it as a barrage of dicks, so men think of course they have sex on tap. They mention most of their problem with OLD is not finding a good man, so combine that with the barrage of dicks again, and from an outside perspective, it definitely seems like those 2 things can only be possible together if the woman in question is just being picky.

Framing all DV as "Male violence" especially when the CDC says that in cases on Uni-directional violence 70% of the time it's the woman abusing the man, is misandrist as hell. Yes, there are reasons to focus on "Male violence" in specific, as it can be the most dangerous, but it is not the most prevalent. Especially not when it comes to control.

He did the right work, but came to the wrong conclusion. Beauty is a measure of attractiveness, but that is why anybody can be the judge of anybody else's beauty.

That lesbians are somehow more violent than straight men. That myth gets debunked every time it rears its head, but men still bring it up when we talk about male violence in relationships. The problem is that the "debunk" isn't clear. I'm not going to go look up the exact numbers again, but it's something like: ~34% of hetero people have been the victim of DV, as opposed to ~44% of lesbians. The "debunk" is that of that population of lesbians, something like only ~63% have had the violence come …

Pro tip: for buying laptops, you are going to get the best prices for the best products buying refurbished.

Yeah, that's another example of something that isn't true, but easily fuels a certain kind of outrage machine so it gets retold. Honestly a solid part of me writing this up is so I have it on hand the next time I see someone sharing that myth.

Maybe I haven't been clear. The claim I am countering is that when polled, single women as a group report being happier than married women. That claim is false, and comes from people either misconstruing the facts, or completely misunderstand the polls they are citing. I am NOT countering "Women who want relationships are happier single", because like you said, that is reductive and a stupid argument that nobody was making in the first place. Sorry for the confusion.

There's like, a whole ass post under the title. Try reading some of it. I'm not saying women should stay in unhappy relationships, I'm saying there is a common myth that women in general are happier single, and it gets bandied about to say that women should give up on dating and love. That myth isn't true, and women should make their own decisions based on their life and experiences.

Coffee is a bitter "you have to get a taste for it" kind of drink that because of that, has an air of maturity around it. Iced coffee, and basically all trendy coffee drinks are sugary attempts to make something that most kids would still go crazy for. That's not a bad thing, drinks tasting good to you is all that really matters, but some people want the same air of maturity for a drink that does not take any getting used to at all, which is odd.

Red pill self-filters men into the blackpill.

I do enjoy the classics, but I think you are way underselling how good the storytelling is in BG3 and you know it. As far as narrative games though, I put it up there with one of my other favorites The Witcher 3 and Brothers a tale of 2 sons. The difference to me is that I enjoy the combat in BG3 a lot more than any of those other games. It helps that I came at it from playing a whole lot of 5e D&D that BG3 is based off of, but the game has definitely earned all it's praise IMO. What the best ga…

BG3 is the best game to come out, possibly ever, and a big part of it is that they made this game for literally everyone, including the biggest female pandering character I have ever seen in a video game. Like Asterion is a slightly assholeish sexy vampire who comes onto you very strongly because he's trying to manipulate you, but you can slow him down and learn that it's all because he has a sad backstory and fix him. Or make him worse, if you're into that. And they did it so well that even mos…

I haven't watched Buffy, is she actually flawed like Walter White? I mean like an anti-villain, not an anti-hero. (The difference being a anti-villain is still a villain of the story, but has heroic qualites, an anti-hero is a hero without heroic qualities.)

Eh. It definitely goes both ways, but they aren't equally bad by a long shot. On a personal level, misandry is just as disgusting in a person as misogyny, but misogyny exists on a societal level to oppress women, especially in less developed parts of the world, in a way the history of misandry just does not get close to. We should be able to look at misandry and try to eliminate it as much as we can without resorting to very untrue "both sides"isms. Part of me does hate writing this out because …

So a man without options can't leave the relationship because he "can't afford to" but he can afford to risk the relationship by cheating? Nah, no cheaters think they are going to get caught. Either that, or they don't care if they do. Either way, it's really not anything to do with options, it is entirely about a lack of morals.

Secondly, saying "society is held up by men because they do X jobs" is weird, especially when women could do a lot of those jobs. Just because we have traditional gender roles, doesn't mean that if needed to, women couldn't step up …

I'm sorry to hear about your son. (Not so much your brother.) I am curious though, has seeing what happened to your son shaped your views on what modern dating is like? I stalked your profile a bit because it sounds to me like you have a unique perspective, are you ashamed of your son? Proud of him? Do you think his "trying to be a perfect man" was a good thing for him? Also, just a note, I find it funny that you posted this comment, and this comment within 15 hours of each other.

Either side accusing the other of gaslighting is funny, because it's stupid. The difference in red pill/ blue pill ideology is literally about the nature of reality. Gaslighting is when you are trying to undermine somebody else's sense of reality. Since we fundamentally disagree about what reality is, there is simply no way for us to debate or argue without gaslighting. We can't both be right, there is only 1 reality. I'm fully guilty of condescension though, but this is PPD, the only people who…

I am? Personally, I've always thought that celebrating and appreciating the existence of love was one of the most blue pill things imaginable. I think it's only natural to also think a lack of love is sad. I think it's very modern and red pill to think that love comes secondary to sex and status.

PPD woman, without a doubt. The biggest difference to me is that the women on Twox will go complain about their bf/husband on twox, then act all surprise pikachu faced when the people on the internet hate on their partner and tell them to leave. And they listen to that kind of feedback. The women on PPD only ever bring up their partners as shining examples of what they like, because they know what the crowd is like.

As a nerdy man with nerdy hobbies, my first reaction is to make sure its because she's actually not good at budgeting, not just lying because shes embarrassed about it.

If she is actually bad at budgeting, then I'd help her with it as much as I can, but always keep seperate finances just in case and drop her if she becomes a leech.

I would think he is less caring. I tend to think caring deeply is also pretty masculine, so yes I suppose I would think that's less masculine. Edit to add: I'd also think he's less masculine if he cried when he shouldn't. It's not about the crying, it's about the caring.

I didnt say one is a requirement for the other, they are both masculine in their own different ways. Another example of masculinity I aspire to is the example of one of my high school math teachers. A short, older man with no muscles to speak of. But he was a true romantic. If we were ahead of his lessons, he would read us poetry that he had written for his wife. I know many people who have a general love for humanity, but this man cared. If you were in his class, he'd treat you with all the kin…

I didn't say that. I think being comfortable showing your emotions is masculine, and being able to challenge hard tasks, grow strong, and be that competent is also masculine. Put both together, and your masculine squared.

I feel like the context he said that in is pretty important. Like there's a difference if the way it was said went: Friend: "She's not much of a looker, is she?"

DMs are generally the de facto leader of the game, being put in charge of basically everything because they have put the most effort in and people generally respect when you've put effort into giving them a good time. Like being the person to organize a party. But it does mean you have to play D&D, one of the nerdiest hobbies under the sun. And not only play it, but put a lot of effort into it, so the DM is also often the nerdiest person at the table. So theres a strong argument either way, lol.

Trans people have nothing to do with it. In fact, mentioning trans people shows you how accessible mens spaces are to everyone, and how closed off womens spaces are in comparison. You don't hear about trans men trying to get into mens spaces, because they aren't being kept away from them in the first place. Most "Men's spaces" wouldn't have any problem with cis women entering them either. Its hard to even think of an example other than the boy scouts, which is now open to everybody.

I can agree with that, given that the focus on casual sex stays about casual sex, and not about making a point about men or women as a whole. For instance, if you are saying that more men participate in casual sex, all good. If you say that more men participating in casual sex is proof men care less about getting hitched and raising kids, no bueno. That's extrapolating outside of the original focus. Obviously the reverse is true for women, just in case it needs to be said.

In general terms I think I get what you are trying to say, but I'd argue 2 things: First that there isn't a singular focus.

The whole thing about communism in its idealised (and impossible to achieve) form is that everybody is equal.

Especially the part about women being the ones trying to stick to a schedule.

Not how victimhood works. It's the people being unfairly maligned that are the victims. If a murderer kills 4 men and 1 woman, their primary victims were men. It wouldn't matter if the murderer was a man or a woman. If 4 women were murdered and 1 man, it should be obvious the primary victims were women, even if the murderer was a woman. If you want to say women are better than men because they cause less violence, that's an entirely different sexist argument.

I worked in social services taking care of people with disabilities. I've seen absolutely deplorable care being given, because the "caregiver" really just wanted the federal check, without doing any of the things they were supposed to as a decent human being. However if you ask me, the answer to that is more money being put into these social programs, so that they can actually afford to run check ups and police this behavior, not a cutting of the budget. That just makes more people suffer.
