"Male Privilege"

Twitcher77 · 2013-12-27T01:18:45+00:00

Feminists will just blame this on the "patriarchy" and say that males are killing other males, so the homicide rates are excusable. They will blame men on the workplace fatalities because women aren't encouraged to work in dangerous fields like men are. They will say that since women attempt suicide more often then men, women have it worse, or that since men use more fatal methods it's there fault or something.

It's all happened before when I posted the last male privilege chart on Tumblr. (I added a source, don't worry.)

The entire thing is such a bummer. The human apathy is abundant in feminism when it comes to the other half of the world's population.

Feminists will say:

More women TRY to kill themselves.
Men get paid more so of course they'll die at work more.
Men are homicide victims because they kill each other.
Men are homeless because they are abusive and get kicked out of home.

Source: None. (Edit: surprisingly, almost exactly the same list as another comment)

These are mostly stupidity-related statistics.

I don't want to be the ignorant dumbass who sounds like a feminist, but can someone use this to support an argument? It's late, and I just don't see where to go from here. Is this about victimization? I can understand that. How can we use this to further an argument or goal? (I just want to learn and discuss pls be kind)

What is the definition they are using for homeless there? I've personally never seen a homeless female in my entire life. Granted I'm not in some huge city or anything, but I've just never seen one.

Are these statistics per capita or overall?

More men work in 'dangerous' jobs. Therefore is it's overall of course there are more male deaths.

One of the leading causes of homicide is gangs and most gang members are male.

How about we stop making this men vs women and instead worry about the fact that suicide is the third biggest killer in 15-24 year olds and the growing number of homelessness which includes men, women and children.

If "patriarchy" treats men much worse than women this begs the question of why did feminism put so much focus on women but so little on men? Do the United Nations and various other feminist informed human rights organizations condemn country that employs mandatory military services? Do they make it an important "men's rights" issue? No they don't treat men's rights as an issue even in this most rightful context. They treat men's slavery as business as usual but when women are the hardest hit the feminist rhetorics come out.

Key words here: business as usual; male suffering is business as usual and feminists are not exempt to this bias, because it was not examined when they were busy developing their little theories to save women. They assumed because "men disadvantaged? You must be kidding" and didn't bother to check the facts. They dig themselves a rabbit hole now they can only lie out of it.

It is important when dealing with this issue to establish some terminology. Namely, if you want to make maximum impact, it must always be referred to as "genital mutilation". This is the term used for female circumcision by opponents of that event, and so should be used for male circumcision as well.

I don't understand what this has to do with male privilege. Obviously these aren't descriptions of privilege... I don't get it...

I could make the same chart for 'white privilege'

I think it's worth noting that you've all just upvoted to hell something submitted by a mod at r/WhiteRights.

Nicely done.

I don't buy the homeless numbers. George Orwell made this observation in 1932 in "Down and out in Paris and London." Homeless women were virtually non-existent. His estimate was about 9/10 were men. Worst case scenario a woman can always just find a man.

fuck bitches get money

Homicide perpetrators = mostly men. Rape perpetrators = mostly men.

Suicide "victims"? Nobody is a victim of suicide, they do it themselves
