UK: What gives you the right to touch me? More anti male crap from the BBC. The Fawcett Society said misogyny, and contempt for women, should be classified as a hate crime. It makes one worry what would happen if Labour ever get back in.

It really makes you wonder what would happen if they actually got their way. Lots more men just completely avoiding women, working and society in general...

This really worries me. They mention unwanted sexual advances. The thing is, as a man, most of my sexual advances will be unwanted, that's just the way it works. Now, if I knew they were unwanted before making them, then I wouldn't bother making them in the first place, what would be the point? This is how mating works: the man (usually) makes a sexual advance of some sort (can just start with a compliment), and either gets accepted (wanted) and proceeds or rejected (unwanted) and he gives up. Criminalizing this would effectively be criminalizing men for being the proactive sex when it comes to mating.

Do unwanted sexual advances make women uncomfortable? Yes, I'm sure. Do people have the right to always be comfortable? Nope. You'll be uncomfortable sometimes in life. Just like men also feel uncomfortable making these advances.

Any real men left in the UK? “The Fawcett Society also said misogyny, contempt for women, should be classified as a hate crime.” Scary.

Misogyny is a hate crime already if it is a driving force behind a crime. This is like shrieking for equal pay. It's there already, cut it out.

I would agree to that hate crime garbage only if Misandry and hate against men was also against the law.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Women do this too, don’t focus on one.
