Just Girly Things

Men, we pride ourselves on our logic, so let's exercise some: This is more a comparison of pampered civilian life vs combat veteran life than a comparison of female life vs male life.

I'm just sayin that posts like this are what makes Men's Rights Activism sometimes look like shrill feminists.

Why are we making fun of "just girly things"?

Sure, they're easy to make fun of, but why should /r/mensrights care?

And this is why a lot of people are laughing at this subreddit. You need to stop upvoting shit like this if you ever want to be taken seriously.

This is stupid. Comparing sheltered teenage girls to soldiers 50 years ago is comparing apples to oranges. I could just as likely compare women in Africa or the Middle East to upper middle class urban college aged american men, and see how that looks.

Posting stuff like this is not going to get people to take Mens Rights more seriously.

This post has me so goddam pissed off. This is not what I expect from this sub. Beyond the fact that it is in incredibly poor taste to begin with, you could point for point go through and replace the "girly things" images with men doing equally inane bullshit and pictures of servicewomen experiencing the horrors of war. Fuck you OP, and fuck everybody that upvotes this post.

Come on. That's a total straw man. You need to show some things man have to deal with that can stand up next to wrapping the fucking christmas gifts. That war footage doesn't cut it. Besides, don't you know women are the primary victims of war anyway?

Ugh. The whole point of soldiers is so the majority may only experience the "trivial struggles" of a secure civilian life.

Looks like some ditsy petty over-privileged white girl's Pinterest account - the type of girl that uses "like" five times in one sentence and is in a sorority (really not that much different than the average young woman with a smartphone addiction). Seems we live in a culture where women are enabled constantly to be oversensitive about the most trivial of things which leads to them construing "hello beautiful" as street harassment. Gynocentrism (a dominant and mostly toxic female perspective) is enabled by white knights and manginas which most men are.

On the other hand, men have to stoic because they are the warriors and guardians of society.

Very Moving Images. Good stuff.

I really thought this was a post from /r/ImGoingToHellForThis

God damn do I hate seeing this stupid collection of pictures that is completely cherry picked.

brodohfasho · 2015-04-03T16:29:20+00:00

Downvote the post and move on

Why is this in men's rights?

SpongeBobMadeMeGay · 2015-04-03T15:53:08+00:00

Women fought and died in Iraq and Afghanistan. And everybody there signed up for that stupid shit. And now both countries are worse off... just neo-con things.

songofrebellion · 2015-04-03T15:27:10+00:00

my feels... all of them...

dugie13 · 2015-04-03T17:07:33+00:00

Both men and women serve in the military though...
