Revenge on people who are dead, in fact.

kaushrah · 2020-02-10T12:17:55+00:00

Absolute power corrupts - no matter the gender, race, color etc. It doesn't matter. This is something left leaning studies/politics seems to have forgotten!

cholothebolo · 2020-02-10T12:00:10+00:00

I still believe that not everyone has black-or-white thinking. Most people (of all genders) can actually think, and I have hope in that.

CamilaTab · 2020-02-10T19:46:38+00:00

I said this exact thing in a subreddit for women and after getting being told I don’t know the struggles of women (even tho I am a women) I was then kicked out and banned from ever posting again 🤙🏼

goldietheswagbear · 2020-02-10T12:04:08+00:00

looking at the female leaders in history yeah it has totally only been men it's not like queens are a thing

Washing_Macine · 2020-02-10T14:54:20+00:00

It strikes me how many women advocate for men's right.

BeeStingsAndHoney · 2020-02-10T22:31:11+00:00

I've been saying it for a while (not that people listen), but that toxic masculinity may not be prevalent now, but if innocent people keep getting lynched by outrage culture... eventually people will crack.

Lisa Britton is friggen brilliant. I've recently stumbled upon her on twitter and it's like a breath of fresh air.

AlienID385325 · 2020-02-10T14:47:15+00:00

Nothing better than women putting other women back in their place

AbysmalDescent · 2020-02-10T15:17:16+00:00

It's also literally making the assumption that all men think the same way and have no individuality, making the assumption that men in power would not care about women or have their interests at heart(which is couldn't be further from the truth), and making the assumption that those men didn't get those positions through merit(also kind of dismissing the greater expectations placed on men to succeed).

wateroclock · 2020-02-10T14:04:35+00:00

Revenge for preferential treatment for thousands of years.

Blutarg · 2020-02-10T18:12:19+00:00

Just like if you want half of executives to be women, but don't mind 95% of garbage collectors being men, then you aren't for equality.

leysreverie · 2020-02-10T19:16:12+00:00

I'm so sick of women thinking they're entitled just because we have uterus

OP: In the future, please use a more descriptive title. Had I caught this post earlier, I would have removed it. However, it has garnered enough participation, that removing it now would result in stifling that participation. Never-the-less, for the future, please note that we have a rule regarding titles that requires them to be informative rather than clickbait.

The_Best_01 · 2020-02-10T21:46:29+00:00

Yep, feminism is basically revenge against their imagined slights. Sums it up pretty well.

oorakhhye · 2020-02-11T01:37:21+00:00

True. With that logic, they should also advocate slavery where Black people own white people slaves.

RobDog101 · 2020-02-11T03:43:01+00:00

Specifically taking revenge for problems you blame your fathers' generation for out on your sons while your fathers' generation cheers on and profits from it.

Svenskbtch · 2020-02-11T09:43:31+00:00

I reject the narrative of historical oppression of women: gender roles were much more strict, but life was harsh for most people of both genders. Even a medieval king would prefer to be a poor American today for a range of reasons, starting with doubling his life expectancy.

But it is an interesting question to which extent we have an obligation to compensate for the travails of past generations. Most blacks are descendants of slaves that were brought here by force, and that is probably at least a small part of the explanation behind their current socioeconomic status. What is the right thing to do? What about Jews, the victims of one of the three most horrific crimes against humanity the world has seen (apart from Stalin, Mao)? They are socioeconomically far above the US and world average.

Svenskbtch · 2020-02-10T17:19:54+00:00

In one meeting on gender equality, someone noted that our organisation had been very successful as 6 out of 8 directors are now female. I made the comment "Great. More equality", which I meant facetiously but was taken seriously.

A great example of this phenomenon is the Forums Gender Gap report, which evaluates gender equality based on economic representation, political representation, education, and health. The first two were pretty straightforward, but in the dimensions of education and health the team faced the "problem" that women outperformed men on most indicators. The solution was simple: count these areas as having a gender equality score of 1, rather than having "reverse" gender gaps cancel out gender gaps to the detriment of women.

Although I know this team struggled with these issues and realised the problem, I think this approach is pretty indicative: we simply struggle to see gender equality any other way. The mere thought of extending the logic to men, let alone to treat any systematic problem to the detriment of men as an issue worthy of attention, rubs not only feminists, but most of society, the wrong way.

The results ended up pretty bizarre, with political and economic gender equality in Afghanistan ending up in the low teens, and educational and health equality in the 90s (on a scale from one to 100).

Revenge isn't justice.

Anyone who thinks it is needs to reevaluate their life choices

yikes3636 · 2020-02-10T22:53:42+00:00

So they want men to literally go through the SAME THING? something that they DIDN'T like? Also, people who were adult men before 1920 would all be dead

wizwocket · 2020-02-11T00:38:08+00:00

Wow. A woman who employed logic and reason... How rare.

kvothethearcane88 · 2020-02-11T03:04:09+00:00

Female dominance would lead us to extinction. Every country would be at war over words and hurt feelings

McFeely_Smackup · 2020-02-11T04:30:25+00:00

people who have never experienced oppression advocating discrimination against people who have never perpetuated discrimination, is not revenge. It's sociopathic.

knoxfire · 2020-02-11T05:25:14+00:00

Literally who is vying for female dominance and why haven't I met them yet.

salamithenegro · 2020-02-10T12:19:14+00:00

That's stupid also

ScottishGamer1909 · 2020-02-10T15:10:23+00:00

In ones mind revenge and justice can run hand in hand. In reality revenge and justice run in opposite directions.

RAClSM_CEO · 2020-02-10T13:02:33+00:00

A woman spreading truth, instead of lies? It's rare but very good.

It's the same idea with affirmative action.

LegendaryEmu1 · 2020-02-12T03:46:41+00:00

Like finland saying its all for gender equality, but most of their government is women?

I mean, its essentially just garbage. women do have a greater in group bias than men do. They know once women are in power, they'll stay there. Equity is not equality.

People who want everyone a fair go, regardless of any circumstances, race, religion, sex, orientation or class, those are the ones that really want equality.

JPPlayer2006 · 2020-02-23T09:49:35+00:00

If you’re fighting for equal gender representation then aren’t you fighting for equality of outcome and not equality of opportunity?

Silentpoolman · 2020-02-10T18:19:12+00:00

Duh that's what every formerly oppressed group wants.

Flux_7 · 2020-02-11T02:45:57+00:00

Nobody in this sub should be fighting for “equal gender representation”.

This is really dumb because noone actually says that.

This is typical right-wing/mens-rights complaining about things noone actually said.
