Guys let me tell you a story.

I see thousands of breast cancer reconstruction surgeries. Women who lose their breast to cancer can have it reconstructed and insurance will pay for it. It's just an accepted thing.

A colleague said a patient came into the emergency room because of irritation to their penis. They were in their 20's and their main complaint was they were noticing chaffing of the glans against clothing and thought they had a STD. STD panel came back negative.

Basically this patient was seen as having an anxiety disorder because they were "obsessing over their penis".

In reality this patient did not know that they were missing an important body part- the foreskin and that the chaffing was a adverse effect of their infant circumcision.

My colleague is still in training and couldn't tell them this, they could only say that there was nothing wrong, no infection.

Guy complains of missing body part? He has anxiety and a mental health disorder.

Woman complains of missing body part? Let's do everything we can do make her feel whole again.

It's so fucking wrong that we treat 50% of the population like shit.

If you're a male between 15 and 59, poverty, injuries and death are supposed to eventually buff out, if we're too busy helping living beings we actually care about

When I read such articles that focus on women, completely ignoring male victims, I can’t help but wonder if the authors are consciously deciding to omit men’s plights or if gynocentrism is just so ingrained that they focus on females without even thinking about the men’s needs they ignore.

I wonder this even more when it comes to physically denying help to male victims. The most amazing case to me was when relief organizations in Haiti only gave food to women, denying it to men. When I first heard that I couldn’t believe it, but several sources confirmed it. To deny people food simply because they are male takes a special kind of misandry. I don’t know how such people live with themselves.

Sadly my Haiti example and this article are far from the only such cases. We see men dying in the Ukraine while media and relief organizations focus on the poor women who were allowed to escape such a fate. Under legislation such as VAWA we see funds allocated specifically to help female victims often denied male victims. I’ve read articles along the lines of what Lastlaugh indicates: women getting cosmetic surgery while male vets with blown off limbs get inadequate treatment. Sadly, it goes in and on.

There are gender studies grads dominating media and government- god forbid they put on work boots and actually build or fix something. The sole focus of their paper pushing efforts are to enforce empathy with one gender. Guess which.

Fellow Canadian here, and I did a tiny bit of subcontract work at a CBC News office a few years ago.

The thing I noticed was how many women were working there. Not only women, but OLD women. The well educated well-off type.

And they had so much ego. As a working class man, I was just garbage in their eyes. The entire senior editor board were these grey-haired man-hating feminist harpies, and they really treated the people under them like crap.

One other thing I forgot to mention is that this quote was from an ER doctor. So note how ER doctors are able to flat out admit that they will discriminate against you as he views your health issues as less important than the health issues against others.

So this isn't some rando, but a guy who is tasked with determining the priority of care.

Infection spreads in canada. Canadians are no longer nice it seems.

This is the worst kind of misandry, because its probably entirely unintentional.

I see this kind of thing a lot. I think it's just kind of ingrained in people to use language like this; besides, I think people understand or feel intuitively that mentioning women and children drives sympathy.

As an able-bodied, prime-of-life male you just get used to it. You know any plights you may have aren't tugging on society's heartstrings...

The CBC got a huge govermmentedia bailout and is funded by the leftie government of JT. Of course there is Misandry going on in there so called journalism. And yes men cannot be deprived or not advantaged group in Canada. It's all about women and children. Men don't matter one bit

Several years ago I was at a fireworks display in my town waiting in line at the port-o-lets to urinate. I overheard a woman behind me talking to her friend say that “men shouldn’t even be allowed to use these bathrooms when women are waiting in line”. The audacity of that bitch! I was younger and didn’t say anything but this was when I learned that women really think of us as subhumans. In hindsight, i probably should have asked her where the hell she expects us to urinate.

Men are always taken for granted by most societies.

rabel111 · 2024-01-06T23:52:56+00:00

Institutionalised misandry is wide spread and unquestioned across most western democracies. After dominating academia in epidemiology and psychology, feminists have systematically erased male victims experiencing hardship or discrimination, from public discource and policy making.

As a Canadian Male, this article just gave me another reason to leave Canada.

Canada has become too communist for me to tolerate living in.
