"The worst misandry does is hurt men's feelings..."

Klang_Klang · 2013-07-24T09:15:54+00:00

Her last response is one of the most "difficult to deal with" feminist beliefs. It has pervaded their movement to such a high degree... It is the belief that "yes, we will concede that misandry exists, but it ONLY exists because misogyny exists. Fix your goddamn misogyny and then the misandry will vanish!"

Couple that belief with the fact that feminists can never say what they mean, but instead have to dress their point up in a paragraphs worth of feminist buzzwords (systemic oppression, patriarchy, etc) and you ain't winnin' this argument.

it is funny how feminists so frequently claim the systematic oppression of women, yet can't give a single example of a law that favors men over women, while every MRA can give you at least 5 examples of systematic discrimination against men.

Ask the homeless man in the streets, or the fathers in jail for child support that exceeds their income, or the soldiers coming home in boxes, ask them if they feel they have power.

More projection.

She says that Misandry doesn't come from a place of power but look at the divorce courts that have been set up, look at the Television with its depictions of "bad men", look at the feminist organisations set up to lobby the government and also look at the powers given to the police to be able to remove men from homes based on no evidence.

Projection is a classic feminist tactic.

AtheistConservative · 2013-07-24T09:14:03+00:00

To the best of my knowledge this is a form of cultural marxism and it is self-defeatingly preposterous.

If institutional oppression is the only form of societal pressure that can legitimately be criticised as sexist, fine, but please stop calling the depiction of huge breasted women in a videogame 'sexist' then.

You can't have the cake, eat it, and expect me to take the whole thing seriously.

Ahahaha, it's like I'm listening to a gender studies course. I always hear that systematic/systemic argument and it's fucking stupid -- if you hate men or hate a man just for being that, it's misandry. If you make rules/laws strictly for men, or hold men to different standards that negatively affect them, it's misandry. Definitions really need to be revised so feminists can't abuse them to dismiss any problems men face.

TracyMorganFreeman · 2013-07-24T12:48:40+00:00

Internalized misogyny drives women to hate themselves

All misandry does is hurt men's feelings

Hmm...

I mean let's ignore actions by the state motivated or kept from being stopped due to misandry.

Typical cherry picking on their part.

ExpendableOne · 2013-07-24T14:12:45+00:00

Even if you ignore for a second the countless ways in which women hold power over men(financially, romantically, sexually, socially, judicially, etc), that kind of stance is still completely disgustingly unjustified and false. Misandry doesn't just "hurt men's feelings", obviously. Misandry criminalizes and incarcerated men, misandry is a source of violences and rape against men, misandry causes some men to lose their lives, their loved ones, their livelihoods, their sexuality and their opportunities, and misandry subjugates, alienates and objectifies men(while completely ignoring men's pain and experiences). All of which goes significantly further than simply just "hurting men's feelings".

JavaPants · 2013-07-24T16:48:03+00:00

Women are actively oppressed by it on a systematic level

Have you ever noticed how they don't ever give examples of how they're systematically oppressed? (The wage gap doesn't count because it's BS)

Because I can sure name some ways men are systematically oppressed: Child custody, unfair child support, automatically being assumed to be in the wrong on any DV call, automatically being assumed to be guilty in any rape accusation.

First of all, 'Feminazi' is an incredibly immature word, and the teenage MRA's that use it need to recognize that you are doing more harm than good every time you say it.

Second, how do Feminists say, on the one hand, that "The Patriarchy" was set up simply to serve men's interests, and then on the other hand, dismiss men's issues such as higher suicide rates, higher dropout rates, higher homeless rates, military draft, longer working hours, discrimination in family and criminal courts, etc, as simply being a result of The Patriarchy? If the Patriarchy was actually a plot by Teh Menz to serve our own interests, none of that shit would be true.

That gave me cancer.

I'll sum this up so you don't have to deal with the pain of reading it.

oppressed on a syentatic level ? then why do women control household spending, individual spending, the political vote, personal wealth, and even healthcare priority ?

Misogyny my ass.

stop_stalking_me · 2013-07-24T16:48:49+00:00

I'm getting sick of hearing this "oh women are so oppressed (in western society)" crap. Every day I see more and more evidence to disprove that.

Everything_Is_Rape · 2013-07-24T17:33:11+00:00

Insisting misandry is real is rape

2013-07-24T15:40:00+00:00

Everytime I read one of these copy and paste from FB, I just wonder why people have those kinda eejits on their FB.

I had one, that person was a radical and somewhat brainless example of all that I abhor - they are no longer on my FB.

2013-07-25T02:19:42+00:00

I find it ironic that the person has the last name Koch, but that's not important.

What is important is how this post pretty much says exactly what that best-of post was talking about. I'm sure we all have read that post by now, but I don't have a link, sorry.

Leinadro · 2013-07-25T05:18:46+00:00

I can't be the only person that wonder how is it that if the struggles for gender equality are not about who has it worse the first time someone mentions the struggles of men there is this compulsion to fire back with how the struggles of men are not the same as the struggles of women and therefore don't count?

DavidByron · 2013-07-24T17:10:12+00:00

Hurt feelings are the only "issues" feminists can name for women. This is an example of how conservatives (ie feminists here) tend to accuse others of what they are.

Bohica69 · 2013-07-24T14:11:34+00:00

Why are you dealing with this cunt?

2013-07-24T14:56:18+00:00

Goddamn I know that it's wrong, but I just want to kick whomever this is really hard in the nuts/cunt.

barbadosslim · 2013-07-24T13:50:29+00:00

seems like a reasonable explanation to me

also fwiw being a proponent of equal rights and status for women is not really that similar to being a proponent of the systematic killing of Jews, Gypsies, gays, disabled people, etc
