Thought this was interesting. First time I've actually seen a larger newspaper write about the issue with male feminists

The power imbalance is that women fear men and women are taught to fear men because parents use a fear of boys to control their daughter’s behaviour, politicians use that fear to gain public support, newspaper use that fear to sell copies, women’s groups use that fear to borrow power from the powerful, charities use that fear to get donations, and lastly women themselves use that fear to bond with each other and create in-groups of accepted males.

Men are not the problem - it’s the sexist fear of men and the exploitation of that fear that is the problem.

More like the problem with all feminists.

A. Trudeau is a clown.

B. I don't agree with the premise that pornography is tantamount to "sexual abuse".

One might even make the argument that pornography prevents many men from harassing women in real life.

Prostitution is the oldest profession for a reason. It will always exist.

As long as somebody is willing to pay for it, and as long as somebody else is willing to do it for money, it will exist.

Is the porno industry perfect? Probably far from it. I'm sure there are many nefarious aspects to the porno and/or prostitution industry. That is certainly unfortunate.

But is it exploitation? Hard to say. More than likely that depends on the person.

One thing that makes me bristle is when women suggest that porno is somehow "bad". This bothers me. This indicates to me the level of how women do not understand men, yet feel at ease speaking for them. This bothers me.

Who am I to discuss a woman's period for example?

I truly find it an apt comparison. Feminists simply do not understand the male sexual necessity. They might even mock this concept. But when you think about it biologically in a reproductive sense. Women have a menstrual cycle, in order for the species to propagate. Men have a sexual necessity, for the same reason.

I'm not commenting on porn itself, but how do you link it with "sexual necessity"?

Archeologists have determined that for practically all of the last 200,000 years men have been able to masturbate without high resolution video hardcore porn. In the last ice age for example cave men had nothing but grainy black and white photographs of naked women, yet their sexual necessity was met somehow.

[–]Lupinfujiko 2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

That's true. That's a good point.

In that way, pornography is a facilitator or an enhancer.

This is not unlike tampons in that regard.

I think many women who are in the sex industry understand this, and are getting paid for it.

[–]Troubleshooter11 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

The truth is that, in all likelihood, most men - if not all men - have engaged in behaviour that was inappropriate, made a woman feel uncomfortable, or was even abusive.

Yeah, ok..the author is a fucking psychopath.

[–]antilopes 2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

You have never made a woman feel uncomfortable or done something inappropriate? Wow, get this guy a halo.

I'm mild and inoffensive around women to a fault but I still did a few things I regret when young. Nothing of much significance but I find it hard to imagine most men don't have anything in their history.

FYI - the author of that piece - Megan Murphy - is the person behind the Feminist Current website. She is awful. The precise opposite of human being.

[–]PJsutnop[S] 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Yup i'm not saying the article is good, just very interesting. Shows that we may be seeing a push by feminist media to push out men more.

[–]EricAllonde 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I think it's simpler than that.

Meghan Murphy is a TERF. Out of all the types of feminist, TERFs hate men the most. They loathe us with the burning disgust of a thousand suns.

This article is just Meghan's excuse for venting her misandry this week. Next week it will be something else, but vent her misandry she will, just like clockwork.

[–]antilopes 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link

TERF's vitriolic hatred of trans women comes from the R part of TERF, it is based on gender essentialism and the fear of and distaste for men common among radical feminists.

After allowing for her rad fem attitude to porn & prostitution the article itself was surprisingly mild and sensible I thought. Emma Watson's glib claim that every man who is for equality is a feminist didn't get the critical analysis it deserved from feminists or anyone else except MRAs so it is good to see her pointing it out.

Indeed. Al Jazeera should be ashamed of itself for running it.
