Women rate men on Lulu vise. But a new site where men rate women is deemed creepy and they want it closed. Double standard I would say.

Seems like a good way to promote a site. Betcha their traffic has doubled already.

This is not the same as lulu. Here the only Thing that gets rated are Looks which is universally accepted as subjective and easily proven false when it's false.

On Lulu, only women get to rate and by things that can't be seen to be untrue from the start. They rate behavioral characteristics and the guys can't defend themselves.

tldr: Lulu is much worse and more degrading.

What?

Women asking for equality then throwing a fit when they get exactly that?

Surely not.

2013-11-22T21:21:35+00:00

Could be the headline notice on the new site: we'll shut down as soon as Lulu does.

nihilist_nancy · 2013-11-22T22:10:42+00:00

Does Lulu use photos without the man's consent?

It seems like another example of a you go girl! double standard. Creepy? The thing is women do not have the privilege to subjectively define reality, and labeling something as creepy is just a weak attempt at that.

More misuse of the word "pervert".

unexpecteditem · 2013-11-22T19:28:36+00:00

And in a disturbing new development, girls who post their faces on Facebook discover men are looking at them. NBC's Penny Page has the details . . .

Suitecake · 2013-11-22T23:39:44+00:00

It's all creepy.

Don't expect a measured and reasonable treatment of controversial issues from the fucking Daily Mail.

eddiexmercury · 2013-11-22T20:24:21+00:00

I posted a question here a few months ago asking if there was an equivalent site for men that was like LuLu. My post was removed and I was threatened with a ban by the mods.

Interesting.

EDIT: Oops. I was looking for something like DontDateHimGirl.com.

Crimson_D82 · 2013-11-23T03:03:27+00:00

Take down lulu and we'll talk. Until then, turn about is fair play.

tygamer15 · 2013-11-23T05:30:43+00:00

We talked about Lulu in my comm class and everyone thought it was creepy, guys and girls

MrKocha · 2013-11-22T20:20:21+00:00

While I do believe social standards of beauty are potentially 'somewhat' infectious (partly biological, partly social) and thus any spread of standards could potentially make life more difficult for certain segments of the population...

Attempting to censor this behavior and creep shaming men for it, shows a genuine lack of respect for their personal freedoms, makes you appear like a hypocritical bitch (women do it too, only they objectify dominance and resources in addition to appearance), and does more damage to the possibility of both males and females considering the possibility of social standards of beauty being spread, and making educated and free decisions on how to spread opinions about beauty/desirability.

Edit: Spelling

isn't this how zuckerberg started?

GregorPike · 2013-11-23T01:57:33+00:00

Lets just close every porn site ever........

Delixcroix · 2013-11-23T04:26:46+00:00

I am not going to say this isn't a mens right matter... But niether websites a good thing. You should probably more actively protest Lulu.

2013-11-23T03:41:38+00:00

This is weird and seriously creepy. I've emailed them to ask for my name and photo to be taken down because it feels like a breach of privacy.

Privacy. On the Internet. Heh.

2013-11-23T04:24:44+00:00

Block lulu app and make them deactivate any profile they have created on you.

hypernormative · 2013-11-23T02:07:59+00:00

I don't think it's a double standard unless it's the same individuals that criticise this while supporting Lulu.

That's not double standards, that's just two standards espoused by different people.

N64Overclocked · 2013-11-23T03:44:41+00:00

Can we have links to these sites please?

simulet · 2013-11-23T05:56:15+00:00

So the same people that run/support Lulu also protest Ratemash? And there is evidence for this?

Obviously some people like Lulu and some people dislike Ratemash. Unless it can be proven that both groups share membership with each other, this post title is without merit.

But let's be honest: This post, like this sub, is built on the idea that women are a monolithic unit. So, if one woman likes LuLu, and another woman dislikes Ratemash, we can claim a double standard and avoid learning anything.

JayBopara · 2013-11-23T04:52:09+00:00

ratemash.com. Doesn't sound as bad as LuLu. But yep, you guessed it, because it affects women, there is outrage. Usual rubbish from our society - men do not matter.

StuntPotato · 2013-11-22T23:03:18+00:00

Ok, this is pretty creepy. Fun, but creepy.

Title	Women rate men on Lulu vise. But a new site where men rate women is deemed creepy and they want it closed. Double standard I would say.
