I didn’t expect to like this article because “male entitlement” is a very misandrist phrase for the most part. Indeed, I don’t think sexual violence is usually the result of “entitlement”; rather, I think it’s more due to resentment and anger. Nor do I think it’s especially gendered.

However I think it makes surprisingly good points, particularly regarding the fact that men who are secure and mentally stable are not the ones who tend to behave in abusive ways. I also like the emphasis on men not being allowed in the social sphere.

Please use more descriptive titles.

EDIT: Otherwise, this is surprisingly frank and interesting, despite the misandrist title.

probably a decent bit of explanation for crime in general

but we don't say shit like "we live in a crime culture"

If we're focusing on dating women are approximately 6 trillion times more entitled than men will ever. Because they can be.

She is onto something with the having to pee on the bus analogy. She just thought of the reason as a woman, not a man. The "having to pee" bit isn't so much about loneliness (although that is a problem) as it is about men's much higher libido. Especially young men have a an intense, sometimes all-consuming biological urge for sex. This is not to excuse sexual assault or rape. That is unacceptable. However we do have to recognize the very real suffering cause by this unfulfilled urge. Men can't fix this because men can't willingly change their biology.

Imagine if every post in this subreddit had such a vague title.

I think there is some truth to this. Its a way to phrase male alienation.

I am reluctant to rely too much on the "men-are-victims-too" card, unless referring to specific representation issues, since I think that encourages them to believe they can control the frame, like we are BEGGING them for consideration, rather than that we deserve it by default (which is how it should be).

Both genders are entitled
