List of legal of legal privileges women have over men.

Male circumcision is legal while female circumcision is a crime
1. The legal definition of rape excludes female perpetrators
2. A woman can sue a man she raped for child support
3. Women don't have to sign up for Selective Service
4. Women receive shorter sentences for the same crime
5. Women can opt out of parenthood by getting an abortion. Men don't have the option to opt out of paying child support

Some societal privileges women have over men.

Women are always assumed to be the victim in domestic abuse situations
1. People don't take male victims of rape seriously
2. Men are a majority of the homeless
3. Men are a majority of the imprisoned
4. Men make up a majority of work place fatalities
5. Men make up a majority of suicides
6. Men are more likely to be victim of a violent crime
7. If men talk about any of these issues conservatives will tell them to "man up" and the left will call them misogynistic.

Try asking your girlfriend if she can give some specific examples of how she is oppressed. We often hear the very general terms of oppression of women by men but I think most men would be fighting along side women if we could see some examples of this. Maybe if a woman was paid much less than a man for the same job or if a woman is forced to perform a role which she is unwilling to do. But most of the women I come across are strong, confident and take no shit. Far from oppressed. But I'm always willing to hear both sides.

Just ask for evidence

"Prove it."

Ask her how confident she is in her view, and if there is anything that would change her mind.

If there isn't anything that would change her mind, then it is not worth talking to her about it.

Recently was broken up with for saying women have more privilege than men. I shouldn’t have said it, as both genders have their own benefits and drawbacks and not all are quantifiable. Still frustrating

youch, sorry man. in different areas women can be more oppressed, but it's equal and sometimes the opposite in others. all depends on what you're talking about. stay civil, king

I'm thinking what is the point to debate people that used different definitions than you.

You try to reason with people where up is down and down is up based on what they feel at that moment in time.

You should make yourself( or join to0 a world with people like you and discuss things that have a common understanding for all of you.Better ignore and you do you.Life will remove stupid people from genetic pool sooner or later.

But that statement warrants discussion.

For one, where? The US, Australia, Canada, the UK and most of Europe? Fuck no.

At least half of Africa? Yeah. But even in Africa, there were all those Muslim schools where men and boys were going and being beaten imprisoned, tortured, raped and the police had to be anonymously tipped off before anything was done.

Your GF sounds incredibly unstable, shallow and dumb.

Why are you still with her?

excess_inquisitivity · 2020-08-23T20:19:08+00:00

Why? She said, "end of discussion." You should take that as "end of relationship".

mikesteane · 2020-08-20T23:32:02+00:00

~~discussion~~ her privileges in your relationship

FTFY

Noone in the West is "oppressed." She's a snowflake.

EDIT Women have easier lives though. They live longer and are financial parasites.

Women pay only 27-30% of income tax. Use 34% more healthcare, and pay only $0.80 on the dollar for retirement.

In Denmark they are 8% less productive than men in the same jobs.

They take way more sick leave than men and it has nothing to do with caring for parents or children.

Women are less likely to work, and more likely to work part time. Even physicians. https://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/12/opinion/12sibert.html

You mean ex gf, right?

bartonsmart · 2020-08-23T08:10:24+00:00

If she’s hot, maybe just put up with it. If she’s fat you should probably leave her.

Sorry if this advice is dumb. I’m just trying to think what I would do.
