TEACH THEM NOT TO RAPE!

The information we hear about men and women in Middle Eastern and Asian countries is almost 100% from feminists´propaganda. It is false. It is lies. That includes information about domestic violence and sexual assault.

It makes me very sad to see normally men-friendly people, including MRAs and skeptics, so quick, almost eager, to capitulate to feminists on the meme that non-Western countries are heavily one-sided against women. It´s not true. The feminists are selling another pack of lies. If anyone truly studies any society and looks at ALL the priviliges versus ALL the responsibilities of the average man versus those of the average woman, one finds that the resulting picture is nothing like the one painted by feminists. In fact, in most cases, it is the average man who has it worse.

So, why? Why are so many of us western men (including MRAs and skeptics) so ready and willing to sell out our fellow men from non-Western countries? Why are we so ready to throw them under the bus? There are probably a few different reasons, but I think most often it boils down to plain ol´ self-interest, with a touch of arrogance. I imagine the inner monologue, conscious or not, goes something like this:

"If I agree with the feminists on the Asia thing, it might shield me from some of the criticism long enough to talk about the things in Western countries that I want to talk about. Anyway, it´s easy, and it´s not like it really matters. Those people are backwards anyway."

It is a shameful thing to do to our non-Western brothers. Right now, there are MRAs in Africa, the Middle East, and Asia dealing with exactly what we are dealing with. They are dealing with the same multi-trillion dollar global feminist juggernaut. They are dealing with constantly being lied about. They are dealing with ever more laws and policies discriminating against them. They are dealing with watching women being liberated from ever more traditional responsibilities and given ever more privileges, while they, the men, are not only not released from old responsibilities but are burdened with ever more new responsibilities.

Let us, as Western MRAs, refrain from throwing our non-Western allies under the bus. Let us question everything we are told about gender relations in non-Western countries. Let us call each other out, where appropriate, for carelessly helping feminists to demonize these men. Thank you.

P.S. HERE and HERE are information hopefully some can find useful.
