Using "love" as coercive pressure.

Bell Hooks says boys are conditioned through traumatisation, this aligns with the second view of Patriarchy I mentioned and also And her solution to this is to inflict different trauma on them so that they behave the way she wants them to.

I suppose we will have to agree to disagree, as all I can see reading hooks are coercive attempts to define for me my intentions and feelings while telling me my love is not love, which I will never accept: her arguments perfectly mirror those made by women who sexually abused me in their attempts to downplay their actions and frame my subsequent retreat into fictional worlds where women didn't abuse men as a desire to dominate women. I think it really is about love. A little bit like Jesus. It'…

She is one of the many celebrating the power of the female gender role and its use as a tool of coercion. Her call for love is indeed meant to be interpreted in the same way as the hippies "make love not war", but that too is naught but coercive love. It is calling for non-violent dominance, which is distinct from empathy and belonging. She is trying to break the patriarchy through social aggression masking as "connection, empathy, love and belonging".

That is exactly what hooks was advocating for. In All About Love, she writes When I travel around the nation giving lectures about ending racism and sexism, audiences, especially young listeners, become agitated when I speak about the place of love in any movement for social justice. Indeed, all the great movements for social justice in our society have strongly emphasized a love ethic. Yet young listeners remain reluctant to embrace the idea of love as a transformative force. To them, love is f…

It is as dogmatic as saying "all white supremacists are trash". The ideology is poison and those who choose to uphold it are choosing a path of bigotry. Making such statements about ideological beliefs and those who choose to hold them is very different than making similar statements about entire demographics.

Sanding the edges off dude bros. Rather, making "better" (from the perspective of feminists) patriarchs and shoving the rest of men in the closet.

Part of this is beyond men; the internet and everything that comes with it has led to the reduction of third spaces, hobby groups etc. But men are disproportionately affected. Why? Because men's interests and hobbies are routinely marginalized and even demonized. Men's groups in general are marginalized and demonized. You can be stigmatized for just having traditionally male-coded interests or wanting to spend time with groups of other men. This avoids mention of the more insidious way men's gro…

I'm not denying any of that nor am I arguing that natural selection explains modern dating. What I am doing is stating that your argument does not actually provide any evidence disproving the theory that natural selection explains modern dating and instead is simply an emotional appeal. The theory that natural selection explains modern dating relies on two basic premises: (1) there exist some traits of modern humans that are the result of evolutionary pressures facing past humans and (2) those h…

Sure, I never said it was. But saying that "women didn't have choice" is similarly not evidence against the theory and just an unscientific emotional plea.

Natural selection doesn't require choice. Like evolution, it is a description of the effects of the events that actually happened, not a directed process. The environment, including the social environment that often involved "arranged marriages and grape", is doing the selection, not individual people.

Why not point out the equally serious problems men face, many of which are very much systemic? Eg. the draft, the education gap, violent crime, homelessness, sexist domestic abuse and rape laws, harsher criminal sentences, police brutality, male genital mutilation, workplace deaths, suicide etc. Bringing up things that are tangible in relevant contexts makes it much harder for people to dismiss us as right wing misogynists who just don't like that women finally have rights. These "equally seriou…

They cannot fathom the idea of cis men having legitimate issues or being disadvantaged in any way. No, they can definitely fathom it. They can't tolerate it, because it poses a threat to their power.

100%, they cannot fathom that people are on a spectrum, they have to view 'men' as a fkn monolith because they are so braindead. No, they know exactly what they are doing. They are exploiting vulnerable boys to create "monsters" they can use to justify the authoritarian control they wish to inflict on society. They need a cohort of boys to be broken and threatening to women/society to incentivize popular support for their patriarchal control.

what women really want (a man who's emotionally intelligent) I don't think this is true. What women really want is emotional validation. They want men to display emotions that align with and validate the emotions they are feeling. Men's emotions are viewed instrumentally rather than being accepted as part of the men holding them. "Emotional intelligence" is merely a way of laundering that desire into something that is less obviously selfish. The reason so many men seem emotionally stunted is tha…

Do people actually say that though? AFAIK the claim is usually just "Feminists hate men" without any comparison to other groups.

So it's just academic whataboutism? "We don't hate men any more than all these non-feminists, why are you complaining about our hatred'?"

I think it is less straight men being scared of getting homophobia thrown at them and more that straight men are scared of having their intimacy co-opted to serve women. This is the fallout of allowing feminism to define male intimacy as inherently sexual, empowering women to define the context of men's actions and the wider social response to it. Fear of homophobia is just the smoke used to distract from this underlying cause. This is why you don't see this response in countries that are more h…

That's your perspective on the situation and that's fair. However, I think you should consider the perspective of the men who get defensive. They have likely experienced being creep shamed for things that were innocuous simply because they were "different". When they hear a woman such as yourself complaining about creepy men, they recall those experiences and ask themselves if they can really trust you or if you are going to attack them as they've been attacked before, even if in this particular…

I notice sometimes i will say something banal about a creep i encountered and then non creepy men will get defensive in a way that its nearly always impossible to break through. Thats sad though because it mens that some normal men think they’re creepy because they watched someone with extreme opinions say some type of “all sex is violence” type trash. Then the moderate middle are unable to talk because they guys with hurt feeling are shut down or angry. I don't think that's why they think they'…

It may not make it ok for men to do it too, but men doing it too certainly doesn't warrant withholding support due to it. If we aren't going to punish women for it, we shouldn't punish men either even if neither should behave that way in the first place.

It is exactly as ok as it is for women to make misandrist comments when they've had bad experiences with men...which is widely accepted and rarely criticized.

I think the pressure to be in a relationship is part of the problem...but the larger part is because of that, men's friendships are considered transitory. Once in a relationship, he'll be expected to give them up. Or once your friends are in a relationship, they'll be expected to give them up. Same thing. There doesn't even have to be a romantic relationship involved--look at all the women extolling men to "challenge the misogyny of their peers" with overly broad definitions of "misogyny" that i…

I think you might have the causality reversed. More accurately I think, "woke" is a useful tool for people who highly value indirect social status competitions and intrigue. It gives them some competitive advantages in these areas especially against people who don't recognize they're participating in such competitions (eg, stereotypical "geeks"). This is I think why "woke" took off in the programming/tech industry so much, being relatively more filled with stereotypical "geeks", over other indus…

So which is it? Do women not care what men think? Or do women care, since men put pressure on them to care? Again it can't be both. There is no nuance here. It's just cognitive dissonance. It's not cognitive dissonance. It's brute honesty. They (the women making such complaints) are making themselves look good to men because they are exploiting male validation to feel better about themselves. They only care about the male validation instrumentally, while their goal is the boost to their own self…

Women are much more likely to engage in social aggression than men and provoking men with sexual harassment in public while expecting others to "defend" them against retaliation is a very common method of social aggression.

Boys are falling behind in education, but that's not because girls are succeeding. It's not because girls are succeeding that boys are falling behind girls, but because schooling was adapted to privilege girls in an effort to improve girls' outcomes when they were behind boys'. Those privileges need to be revoked now that girls are no longer in need of them to catch up. That privileging of girls is what I think is being called feminization.

President Biden's Gender Policy Council was initially lauded as a step in this direction as a more inclusive version of President Obama's Council on Women and Girls. I think it is fair to say that it failed in that regard as the only "solution" it could come up with for men's issues was to patronizingly tell men they needed to "do better". I believe this is because actually helping men qua men is strongly anathema to most members of the party active in gender issues and other party members defer…

they are literally not talking about men's issues at all They are literally celebrating men's issues. Biden's Whitehouse Gender Policy Council published a National Strategy on Gender Equality and Equity that straight up calls a gender gap in higher education that has been widening for over 40 years "substantial progress". There is a very influential subset of Democrats who revel in knocking men down and the rest of the party apparently sees no problem letting them do so even to the detriment of …

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son John 3:16 Christianity exemplifies the love of the patriarch in the willingness to sacrifice his son for others benefit. Seen through this lens, women's demands surrounding gender roles can be seen as a desire for stronger displays of "love" from the patriarchs, who in turn push down even more on their "sons"--the men lower in the hierarchy--to demonstrate that love with their willingness to sacrifice other men.

I think I would say that enough men want acknowledgement that men should have reproductive rights too and for discussions of reproductive rights to include them as equal participants, not necessarily "financial abortion" specifically. Right now men have very few reproductive rights in the US and women's advocates--primarily on the left--are working on eliminating those we do have to ensure that women's concerns always trump men's. As a bare minimum, underage male rape victims should never be lia…

women can tell who is or who is not a creep Do you have a citation for this? It is often claimed, but I've not seen evidence for it while I have seen evidence against it. I would argue that "creepiness" is often just a way that women enforce gender norms on men.

Your example about wearing skirts illustrates this; it costs women nothing to let you do this so they're on board. And importantly, when it does cost women something--eg, when women are creeped out by it--they support the women's feelings over the man's ability to wear what he wants. It's only when men aren't wearing skirts because "femininity bad" that they speak up.

Counting "made to penetrate" in the stats is better than not, but it isn't anywhere near the whole problem here. The fact that it requires penetration at all still biases it against men since most common ways of stimulating female genitals require penetration due to being internal while most common ways of stimulating male genitals don't. The CDC's wording of "penetration no matter how slight, of the vagina or anus with any body part or object, or oral penetration by a sex organ of another perso…

You might be interested to read Lay misperceptions of the relationship between men’s benevolent and hostile sexism, which explores this topic in some detail. While it looks at attitudes toward women, it seems likely that there are similarities with attitudes toward men.

Some evidence suggests boys start life with greater emotional reactivity and expressiveness than girls, however, they become less verbally expressive than girls at about the age of two years, and less facially expressive by six years. I vaguely recall in the past seeing studies showing gendered differences in response to babies cries, where IIRC, the same audio was interpreted as the baby being upset or temperamental when the listener was told they were hearing a male baby and interpreted as bei…

That's a valid point I didn't think about, thanks for bringing it up. Taking that point a step further though, wouldn't that mean a woman would rape a man by forcing him to finger her, while a man forcing a woman to rub his penis it's not rape? Yes. The fundamental issue with the FBI definition is that nearly identical scenarios aren't treated the same based on the sex of the participants, independently of the severity of the situation. That wouldn't necessarily be a problem but for the fact tha…

That's not sufficient to make it gender neutral. The fact that penetration is required causes it to be gendered due to the nature of human genitals and how they are commonly stimulated. Consider a woman and a man sitting next to one another. The woman sticks her hand down the man's pants and rubs his genitals without his consent until he orgasms. Not rape. The man sticks his hand down the woman's pants and rubs her genitals without her consent until she orgasms. Rape. Both of these should be tre…
