Gender Equality

FireReadyAim · 2012-11-29T19:50:52+00:00

A lot of these really depend on the two most important rules, and I think probably go both ways:

be attractive
don't be unattractive

NotARealAtty · 2012-11-29T19:55:29+00:00

Oh, this again

This sort of stuff is as bad as any anti-male propaganda.

Russacky · 2012-11-30T04:02:16+00:00

I know this movement is fairly new but you guys seriously have to start picking your battles.

Zanju · 2012-11-29T23:30:35+00:00

This is ridiculous.

Women are not brave if they hit men, they're still assholes.
Sudden kiss appropriateness is subjective, there's a right time and place for them.
If you go into the wrong bathroom, people assume you went in the wrong bathroom. Unless you're sitting there breathing heavily and giggling, people assume it was a mistake.
Splitting the bill has never been an issue for any woman I've dated. If she values traditional gender roles that much, she's not someone I want to be dating anyway.
Men doing work and women not doing work? OH MAN YOU MIGHT BE ON TO SOMETHING HERE WAIT </sarcasm>. This is a really superficial observation that perhaps someone else will have the patience to elaborate on.
Staring at a man's crotch is not flirting. It is creepy as all hell, and is also considered perverted and offensive, at least where I live. MY EYES ARE UP HERE.
The last panel is the only one with any shred of something worthwhile to say. Men are underrepresented as rape victims. Now make some more comments on that, if you want to actually make a point.

Obviously there will always be outlying circumstances, but come on. This graphic has a slightly misogynistic undertone to it, wouldn't you say?

Edit: I accidentally a word.

This shit again

PsychoKittiez · 2012-11-30T06:30:00+00:00

I can't say I've ever felt compelled to stare at someone's crotch.

newtothelyte · 2012-11-29T22:27:27+00:00

Most of these are not true. I've suddenly kissed girls and it was romantic, most women are okay if you glance at their breasts, but if you stare at them, they'll probably be offended. I don't know if you go to a gym, but I've seen plenty of women that are in shape and can lift. I've accidentally walked into the women's bathroom. It was no big deal.

Need I go on?

jonscotch · 2012-11-30T00:30:50+00:00

Women doing work: Help me!

...Really?

xLadyVirgil · 2012-11-29T19:09:06+00:00

This is a great comic, but I will disagree with one point; the hitting thing. Believe it or not, most people believe women can be abusive in relationships and think hitting is unacceptable no matter the gender.

dwarf_manatee · 2012-11-30T07:04:39+00:00

Only one of those is actually true

DoctorBlaine · 2012-11-29T22:18:00+00:00

I use the women's restroom at my university all the time when i need to change into my gym clothes and a dude is using the men's rooms. they are singles so who the fuck cares? not I.

notreallycanadian · 2012-11-30T03:34:23+00:00

If a woman hits a man it's abuse. If a man kisses a woman suddenly it's ok if it's at the right time and they are in a relationship. (if you're not entirely socially oblivious you can figure this out) It's just a mistake if a man goes into the woman's bathroom. (unless he's retarded and doesn't realize the lack of urinals/the WOMEN INSIDE THE ROOM) women doing work is fine, if they need help, they ask, same goes for a man. (can you move a long table by yourself?) women staring at a man's crotch is just as creepy and weird as a man staring at a woman's breasts.
You might not know this, because chauvinistic morons tend to not get second dates, but in a long term relationship things like paying for meals balance out. If a woman touches a man's crotch it's molestation, and is treated the same way a man's touching of a woman's breasts is.
Please grow the fuck up and join the real world. If you honestly believe that women have it so easy in society then look up Roe v Wade.

I cut an info graphic like this up once and used it as title heads for a power point presentation I gave for a class final... using commercials, show clips, etc to support each notion.

EightOh · 2012-11-30T02:45:34+00:00

Theses things always piss me off, its just how warped it all is. And its all true.

jolakaldi · 2012-11-29T19:46:16+00:00

I can't agree with a single statement there. One has to wonder where all this bitterness comes from?

DuckSir · 2012-11-29T23:37:09+00:00

"Women doing work: 'help me'"

Gettid of that part.

Cosmiche · 2012-11-29T21:44:25+00:00

I'm sorry but this comic just sounds like ignorant men bitching about their loss of privilege.

one of the biggest problems female rape victims face is being dismissed by the police.

S-BRO · 2012-11-29T22:58:40+00:00

Sadly true

J3ss33 · 2012-11-30T06:17:07+00:00

Should have known this would be on MensRights. I'm a feminist so I'll just show myself the door, thanks.

Graenn · 2012-11-29T22:03:05+00:00

That's just dumb. Besides men and women aren't equal. Each gender has its own set of things they can typically can do better than the other, for whatever reasons.

2012-11-30T04:31:28+00:00

How I handle these stereotypes as a male:

I have learned judo for a reason. If anyone lays a hand on me, I will lock them down and they shall regret the consequences. Anyone saying I'm an asshole can talk to my lawyer (which is askreddit by the way).
They use tongue, I use teeth.
I make people feel like they're in the wrong bathroom.
I steal the food and hide it in my stomach.
Work? I usually just pick up both the item and the woman.
My penis is definitely attractive, so women and homosexual men cannot help but stare and imagine.
The only topic I'll actually respond to seriously. The judge had better rule on my side, or else America's judicial system is as horrible as the stereotypes, if not worse.

Good work.
