Male Privilege

I guess it makes sense the the mothers get custody more often, I mean looking at these numbers she is way more likely to live

ISOanexplanation · 2016-07-17T19:07:27+00:00

I hate this graphic because it misspells homicide as homocide. so lame.

I swear. Each time this image is reposted, it gets shittier and shittier in quality.

Every. Single. Fucking. Time.

What this graph doesn't show is that women are the primary victims of men dying. Women lose their husbands, their fathers, their sons.

AgingAluminiumFoetus · 2016-07-17T18:52:54+00:00

Typical men, dying more frequently than women in these drastic ways, just to make sure that women make a higher proportion of the population, so that they are oppressed even more!

Don't you guise get it? Dying for the betterment of women and society is a privilege.

See # of women only colleges vs male only colleges (with the exception of the Jewish only colleges, which are numerous but only 1% of the male population is eligible/Jewish)

It's almost like genders aren't equal and we should all fix the problems that all genders are facing.

Beltox2pointO · 2016-07-17T21:13:21+00:00

For the custody percentages is there any statistics when both parents want custody?

Just because I think it may be skewed as some men may want custody but having to work full time to support their fanily means continuation of that role so they can't feasibly have custody.

flee_market · 2016-07-18T00:09:01+00:00

Sure, I'll take a shot at this. We don't have a draft, so I'm not sure how combat deaths is really relevant. These are people who chose to go to the frontlines as soldiers, and the military is largely still a boy's club so there's not nearly as many women in the military so you should be using a % of men that die while serving and % of women that die while serving.

Homocide victims is a weird one as well. While certainly true, there are other violent crimes that women are more likely to be affected by. Its one of those things where you're just cherry picking

82% of all juvenile victims are female. 90% of adult rape victims are female.

Females ages 16-19 are 4 times more likely than the general population to be victims of rape, attempted rape, or sexual assault.

1 out of 6 women have been victims of rape

1 in 71 men have been victims of rape or attempts

Industrial Deaths are very similar to military deaths where women just won't be in the field nearly as much. Its a field that's been a boys club for a long time and a lot of them won't hire women because they feel that they can't get the job done due to strength, work ethic, or whatever.

Suicides is the one that really made me want to talk about this though. That's the statistic for successful suicides. That does not take into account the attempted suicide rate where women have a MUCH MUCH higher rate of attempted suicide. This is due to the methods that men and women typically choose. Men usually use a gun and women usually use pills. With pills they're able to regret it and get help, or have a failed attempt. With a gun, a failed attempt is a lot less likely.

Also I'm not sure I understand this custody chart. Where is joint custody? Or neither? I feel like those are both pretty important to understanding the numbers on it.

WodensEye · 2016-07-17T20:03:05+00:00

Homocide? Is that when LGBT are murdered?

McFeely_Smackup · 2016-07-18T00:33:33+00:00

while the graphic is accurate enough, it understates the overall problem so badly that it's almost counter productive.

There's way, WAY more areas of "male privilege" inequalities that aren't included, making this small list look a little bit like whining. Include 20 or 30 more items and it becomes harder to discount.

Throughout my entire life the most privilege and abuse of privilege I've ever seen has come from white women. While it's just my personal experience. That's a solid 20 years plus of cognitive memory. Not even close. White women.

Pointless_arguments · 2016-07-18T03:26:13+00:00

This infographic would have a lot more weight if it had correct spelling. "Homocide"? Really?

un_salamandre · 2016-07-18T11:58:34+00:00

This infographic had me way confused by making women blue.

2016-07-18T12:33:37+00:00

Homocide

Homicide

SenorTrumper · 2016-07-18T19:43:29+00:00

Is there a bigger version? One made for people not ants?

MRA-automatron-2kb · 2016-07-17T19:29:33+00:00

The titles are always: Male Privilege

How about: The Misandry Gap

.

Added: those aren't male privileges, it's misandry.

2016-07-18T01:07:47+00:00

Out of curiosity, how do these numbers compare to others, such as the percentage of industrial employees that are men?

Jayebyrd1515 · 2016-07-18T05:33:34+00:00

This data is so screwed up and skewed its unbelievable. Though the individual data points are correct, the conclusions that this infographic leads you to are complete bullshit

But arent you guys against women in combat arms and industrial jobs? In any case our society does not support women joining those roles and teaches girls at a young age that they shouldnt participate in those jobs.

Ohbeejuan · 2016-07-18T03:20:43+00:00

Some of those are bullshit. Many, many more men serve in the military and work in industrial settings.

Mac4491 · 2016-07-18T03:03:20+00:00

Isn't saying that more men die in combat or due to industrial workplace accidents along the same lines as saying women get paid less for the same job?

We all know that this is false, there is simply just more men in higher paid jobs than there is women. Just like there are more men in combat roles and industrial workplaces than there is women.

I just don't like that argument all that much.

Grasshopper21 · 2016-07-18T11:01:59+00:00

Forgot to include 90% of all rape victims are men

anonymous_212 · 2016-07-18T12:18:03+00:00

Another one is 80% of women have children and 40% of men have children.

earlywarningsigns · 2016-07-17T22:31:06+00:00

is this really OC to you?

Surtysurt · 2016-07-17T18:58:54+00:00

But I feel oppressed

SweelFor · 2016-07-17T23:30:58+00:00

So are you asking that more women get killed ? Or to suicide more ? Okay I know you're not but then what's the point ? Men suicide more ? That's true. But are you accusing women of that ? If not what's the point ? I don't understand

Honestly these just don't make sense, I don't even know where to begin, it's non sense

I_Like_Stats_Facts · 2016-07-18T00:21:07+00:00

I like this :).

Its a privilage to be their doormat.

Sgshallow · 2016-07-17T23:20:56+00:00

I must say that after thinking about custody again. It does make sense to give the mother the child as she is much less likely be brutally and or violently killed. If daddys going to die at work or be murdered may add well just live with mom. I feel all the privilege suffering for others. =_=
