Misandry in a Jordan Peterson interview

JP is not our friend. He often talks about the value of men as providers for women.

Sir_Senseless · 2025-01-13T01:50:25+00:00

I've lost a lot of respect for peterson since he became a glorified celebrity with a psych degree. He's a millionaire now and can't even contain his own daughter who was flown out on a plane to f tate. He has no right to give advice to young men as he can't even seem to get his daughter to respect the family name.

If he were to accomplish his psych degree and marry today he would fail miserably.

i am not a fan of peterson but his statement does not imply what you say. it is simply an acknowledgement of womens sexuality being attached to higher value therefore being a higher target for crime by minority of people who are repeat offenders . when you try to keep your phone safe outside you are not accusing majority people of being a thief you are simply acknowledging the fact that there are probably a minority of people who are looking for an opportunity to steal.

It fails to explain empires and kingdom predating abrahamic religions.

I don't think what he is sayin is misandrist. The way I understand it he says there is and always will be rape and since women are in comparison more helpless in such situations they are easy targets. If biologically men were weaker than women and physically vulnerable to them, this same statement would be true but with reveresed genders.

RockyMaiviaJnr · 2025-01-13T05:08:01+00:00

He’s right. A minority of men want to attack and/or rape women. These men are far more likely to choose a woman by herself as a target, rather than one with men around her.

Nowhere does he say nor imply that rape is the norm among men. Nor is there any logical reasoning to get from what he said to that view.

The issue is your drawing invalid conclusions and putting words in his mouth with unjustified logical leaps.

Stick to addressing what people ACTUALLY say, not making things up and pretending like that’s their view when it’s clearly not.

Standard Reddit behavior unfortunately. Do better.

Edit: also, your headline is horrendous. A more accurate headline would be ‘Redditor makes up some nonsense that Peterson didn’t say and tried to pretend like he thinks it’. People like you are the worst.

Islamic societies seem to attempt to chaperone women at all times.

Always assumed that might be because they'd discovered that, given the opportunity, WOMEN couldn't be trusted.

Saerain · 2025-01-13T16:29:19+00:00

Sure, JP has taken the "stop whining and get to work for women" angle on men's rights for many years. The Honey Badgers kinda softened him on it for a little while but that seemed out of little more than kindness.

ggleblanc2 · 2025-01-13T04:06:26+00:00

In the 19th and early 20th centuries, western women were chaperoned. Either fathers or husbands were responsible for their daughters and wives.

Further back in time, it's hard to get a good description of male/female relationships. There's not much written about the common classes.

The Old Testament of the Bible describes how men and women should treat each other. I suspect most tribes had a code of conduct for both men and women.

Yes historically, women not under the protection of a man were fair game for rape. It's ugly but true. 2000 years ago in the Roman Empire, the most common occupation for an unmarried woman was prostitution.

I agree with u/dougpschyte that another reason for chaperones was to keep the women from straying.

Fearless-File-3625 · 2025-01-13T05:30:05+00:00

Jordan Peterson and other right wingers are gynocentric women worshipping misandrists. Almost all social issues that right complains about has an underlying element of misandry.

Former_Range_1730 · 2025-01-13T09:30:35+00:00

What do you expect? Jordan spent decades teaching people to not do foolish things like get pregnant (or get a girl pregnant) out of wedlock, and without your life being in order, yet that's what his daughter did. And he never talks about it.

Diligent_Divide_4978 · 2025-01-13T03:35:49+00:00

JP is a closet gynocentrist.

Clean your room, go to the gym, cultivate great social skills and charisma, become competent and generous (ie betabuxx), have cool hobbies, wait until your 30s so you can have your pick of run-through women, and for what?

The average woman. Average western woman, an overweight slob who’s never seen the inside of a gym or self-improved for even a month of her life.

Self-improvement for the sake of getting pussy is a form of female supremacy.

Lets_Remain_Logical · 2025-01-13T12:11:26+00:00

Hey idiot! Islamic rape gangs doesn't exist since islqm doesn't condone rape(i am not Muslim but I studied enough to teach the average Muslim.

Now why is this triggering: it's extremely stupid to denounce misandry and be islamophobe in the same post.

Let me word it differently: you can be xenophobic and denounce xenophobia!

Do you say "Christian rape gangs" when people are Christians? Oh no? Only when they are Muslim? Why?

who cares about anything jordan peterson says

Tumor_with_eyes · 2025-01-13T12:44:51+00:00

Women are and have always been, the bigger target for sexual aggression.

Men are and have always been, the bigger target for violent aggression.

Women all throughout history get raped a lot more than men.

Men throughout history get murdered a lot more than women.

We are all just “hyper intelligent” apes. And sometimes I really question that.

Just look at nature as a whole and among many mammals, it is still true today.

cyb3rfunk · 2025-01-13T13:58:13+00:00

the status of an unguarded woman constantly throughout human history has been "rape target"...

Jordan Peterson seems to think that rape is actually the norm amongst men

This is incredibly misandrist

I think the question is, what % of men being rapists would be needed for rape to be a legit concern?

I suspect it is much lower than 50%. It seems that even 10% would be more than enough. Which means you can say "women need protection from rapists" without implying that most men are rapists.

ACLU_EvilPatriarchy · 2025-01-13T15:16:01+00:00

In Ancient cultures a married woman wore a certain type of attire, and an unmarried woman usually Virgin wore another type of attire, and a professional sexworker wore yet another type of attire.

A sex worker was a "Public Woman".

A known promiscuous "Slut" was considered defacto equivalent.

In Islam all women past puberty were expected to dress and signal identically because they were all at any given time the chattel ownership of the current Male Guardian... A woman in Muslim societies who cheated on her husband with multiple men, engaged in premarital sex with multiple men is classed as a whore-prostitute, a "Public Woman" and is there for the taking.... like what happened to the Australian 60 Minutes female reporter in Egypt.

In Roman Catholic Medieval Empire Canon Law there were a half dozen categories of Rape from Capital Death Penalty Crimes to as low as a simply pain & suffering Civil tort and Public Disorder/Public Indecency violations.... depending on if you were a:

Nun.

Wife.

Widow.

Virgin.

non-Catholic common law Wife.

molested/incest victim.

Slut.

Bed Wench Inn Keeper.

Brothel Prostitute.

Street Prostitute.
