Protests in Iran: Men make 80% of arrested and 75% of deaths along the "feminist " protests.

See the history. All revolutions were fought by men to overthrow authoritarian rule. Feminism exists in the safest countries in the world.

The few Iranian comments I see on reddit that comment on posts like these are very confused and upset why this is being pushed as a gendered issue when it's the youth vs a fascist regime.

4 to 5 times the risk, none of the reward!

Will women protest against 2 years of mandatory male only conscription in Iran?

Accomplished-Foot123 · 2022-11-20T03:28:05+00:00

What I find nauseous is nowhere you'll see anything acknowleding these men. 1 women dies (which is no less unfortunate), hell break loose. Not a single word about these men.

Nickolas_Bowen · 2022-11-19T19:32:12+00:00

What % of the protestors are men to begin with?

These are not just “feminist” protests (at least not anymore). The “feminism” / women’s rights are still symbolically on the face of this, but these protests go way deeper.

The best way I can summarise it is that in addition to the women’s issues (which are a huge deal) the protests are also about 43 years of Islamic theocracy, dictatorship, corruption, brainwash, governmental paternalism, bigotry, poverty, economic disasters, mismanagement and negligence, nepotism, oppression, lack of free speech, political imprisonment and executions, censorship, and more.

Mahsa’s death and the compulsory hijab was a catalyst but not the actual reason. This is a protest for men, women, boys, girls and all the people of Iran who want their country and culture back from the hands of barbaric and extremist invaders.

I say this not to trivialize the stats that you shared. Of course the imbalance is concerning as a mens rights issue, but it isn’t any different to casualties in any other protest or war. I think you were making the point here that this being a “feminist” protest is what makes it different and therefore makes those figures particularly salient and concerning, so I just wanted to point out that feminism is just the tip of the iceberg in these protests.

Yeah this doesn't surprise me and yet what do femnists do? They imply, suggest and blatantly misinform the public this is a female lead protest.

The first images of the protest show the men who bore the scars and wounds from protecting women but they don't count I guess?

I'm not going to pretend women live great lives in the middle east but I'm sick of pretending most men are doing just fine either.

In India feminism was started by a men name Mahatma Phule who wanted girls should also attend school get education and for that he educated his wife first.

This is about more than the burka thing, there's definitely economic issues at play as well as freedom for men and women.

Same BS with the women's suffrage movement in the UK. Few men were allowed to vote when the women started making noise, only the rich could. Then some rich women were pushing to have the same rights as their rich husbands - but only for the rich. Then WWI happened and they were forced to give the surviving men returning from the brutal war the right to vote, women just piggybacked on the blood spilled by them.

Absolutely hate this narrative of female oppression in Muslim fascist regimes. I was 1000% grateful to be a woman in the fascist Middle Eastern country I grew up in because the dictators there oppress humans altogether. Men have it worse, objectively. I'm grateful I don't have to be drafted, I don't get beaten up brutally by the police, I'm not incarcerated longer, I'm not expected to carry the burdens of my entire family tree on my shoulder. I would definitely prefer to be a woman in a country like Iran than a man.

Drifter64 · 2022-11-19T19:47:13+00:00

You won't hear that statement from mainstream media!

OzoneLaters · 2022-11-19T20:01:44+00:00

Par for the course.

KazukiYahashi · 2022-11-19T16:42:27+00:00

Wow… As a man, I sure am glad I don’t live there.

Black-Patrick · 2022-11-19T17:25:05+00:00

Ok..

adalyn7992 · 2022-11-19T19:53:31+00:00

Wait a minute…what is the source of this google doc? I couldn’t find the original source anywhere. Are these stats even true?

DOBLU · 2022-11-19T21:24:29+00:00

I should note that a lot of the "protestors" killed were rioting. Not peacefully protesting. If you look at the real situation, you'll know that Iran has had multiple terrorist attacks since this "revolution" (western backed psyop) started.

Flowersfallweedsgrow · 2022-11-19T18:45:27+00:00

Good fuck simps

feministnsocialist · 2022-11-19T19:24:35+00:00

Do you have any other source than a google doc with pixelated graphs?

dont-believe-me- · 2022-11-19T21:19:12+00:00

How can you possibly make this about gender? I am still astounded at how unbelievably idiotic some of the stuff here is.
