Long Article Attempts to Explain Why a Clear Double-Standard Totally Isn't A Double Standard

excessive victim-blaming

Already happens, moreso than it happens to women. A lot moreso.

unwelcome catcalling

Also happens. Not sure if more or less.

mortifyingly high rates of sexual assault and rape

Already happens. Probably at rates very similar to women.

having your value in society based exclusively on what you look like

That is true. Our value in society isn't based exclusively on what we look like.

It's based exclusively on how much money we have.

Because the objectification of women leads to all of those things. The objectification of men does not.

This is probably true. Men suffer those things just for being men - objectified or not.

When they start writing this sort of rambling ideological bullshit it really is just time to tell them to fuck off.

There's a widely-accepted concept in academia called the male gaze

No, it's widely accepted amongst only feminist academia you fucking dolt.

Cuz girls are special, and it's cute and funny when they do stuff that they freak-out about when it is done to them.

any other sort of media you can think of are specifically created to satisfy a straight, male audience.

Well, except maybe for the aforementioned “Magic Mike,” Cosmo and Elite Daily which are totes okay. You'd think the author might be able to recall the examples she'd written scarcely one hundred words earlier in her own article.

hypocritical bitches and blah, blah, blah.

Irony fails to work when you sarcastically say something which is close to factual. It's almost emulating the behavior of a hypocritical bitch, IMHO.

Oh yes, because a man's worth doesn't come down to his wallet and his ability to work dangerous jobs. His expendability, if you will.

This article again? You know, guys, by repeatedly posting and debunking this shit, we just keep it alive. Only feminists by into the crap it spins anyway—most people think it's perfectly fine to objectify both men and women, so long as you don't let it devalue their status as human beings.

Seriously—let it go. Let feminist garbage rot in the sun. By obsessing over it, we just stoop to their level. It's one thing to expose new feminist trash to the world, but old reposting old articles for a redux rebutting is just a circle jerk.

Girl stars at my package cause I'm freeballing in gym shorts it's no biggie, I stare at her ass in those yoga pants that she's definitely wearing to receive male attention and I'm a pervert. Those tits in that halter top is for men too.

Lol, I love the last line in her description: "Stalk her at alexialafata.com."

Time to play red light, green light again gentlemen. You better not be tired of it because it's the ladies' favorite game.

I'm not even white, but even I'm getting annoyed with all this "white guys are evil" shit.

jmg83 · 2017-09-15T08:39:16+00:00

I know women who've turned down or dumped men because his job wasn't suitable, because he's not "ambitious" or "successful" enough. It goes both ways.

Archive exists for this garbage so use it http://archive.is/bfTOr

edit; I love the "victim blaming" argument. "Well women are victim blamed!" This entire argument is "victim blaming" men. It's men's fault for why you objectify them, because men aren't "oppressed enough" to be victims of your actions.

"Objectification" is not a real thing unless you have outright brain damage. Our brains recognize a human being without the need to actively think about it. You don't see a human being and ever see an object. Treating someone like garbage =/= seeing them as an object. And finding someone hot before you ask them their life story is not seeing them as an object either, that's stupid.

Our brains even see faces in the inanimate. Cars, barns, the clouds, the moon. We humanize the non-human all the time. That's how hardwired we are to see this shit.

Sexualizing people is fine. What a hypocrite. Yes you're a hypocrite. Just saying you're not doesn't fly, and your shit arguments don't help any. They just make you look even worse

TBFProgrammer · 2017-09-15T13:04:46+00:00

Men belong to the category: object. Ergo, it is perfectly acceptable to acknowledge their object properties. This does not act upon them in any way.

Women are no different in this regard.

This is how propaganda and totalitarian control works.

If, basically through repetition of an idea, you can get people to believe obviously absurd notions, then you can get them to reflexively believe absoultely anything.

I don't really see the problem with two standards. Especially when it comes to sex. Anything else would be retarded, IMO. Men and women do NOT have the same sexual psychologies or behaviours.
