Feminists be like

Without the mods to save them all the bloops are getting absolutely savaged everywhere here. It says just about everything in the terp/bloop fight. Bloops need mommy mod to come same them for it to be a fair fight.

The absolute desperation in bloop defense and deflection is great. What other position could you be in though when you're trying to deny reality, facts, evidence, and truth at every turn with no one to block them for you.

I can question a lot of these, but will specifically choose, "Favored in healthcare."

How? I thought studies actually supported young women were taken least seriously by general doctors.

They'll bitch that there aren't enough women in clinical trials but you very well know if it was reversed they'd say women aren't guinea pigs to test medicine for men.

Lets be honest for a moment. Facts aren't actually facts. Feelings are facts. I feel that the patriarchy exists, so it does. You can't argue that.

I'll address some points:

Women shouldn't be made to register for a draft because men are stronger and more disposable than women. Maybe once a guy can birth a baby this will change.
Its not my fault that men are just stubborn and don't go to the doctor. Blame men they control all the money for research, AKA patriarchy.
Most men deserve to be in prison. So who cares? As we all know, women are better people than men anyway.
Women should by default get children over men. Father's aren't important for the nurturing of a child. Women are better at it. But you're slightly right, it is sexist, but only against women obviously because it keeps women in strict gender roles.
Women shouldn't be held responsible for most things they do because of the patriarchy. Doesn't matter if it involves alcohol or involves murder. There is usually a man to blame.
I laughed at this one. Men can be raped? HAHAHA that is news to me. I think the right wingers call that fake news.
Men shouldn't be allowed to defend themselves against women because physically men are stronger. If a woman hits you 10x, it doesn't mean you can hit her back. If he does, he should be the one going to jail. I don't see anything wrong with this.
BELIEVE ALL WOMEN. No ifs ands or butts. If she was raped, she was raped, if she was sexually assaulted she was sexually assaulted. Obviously, this only applies to when women are the victims and men are the perpetrators. Women don't lie, this is fact.

After reading all these bullet points please re read my first line in my post....No really, read it again. Now you know that I'm right and you're wrong. Feelings > Facts.

Technically, anything that favours women and hurts men is still sexism against women. It's just benevolent sexism. So yes, this meme actually hits the nail on the head, in a way.

Feminists like to throw around the concept that the loss of privilege feels like injustice to men but it’s just one of many many examples of things they got backward.

Women face particular difficulties in their lives, but they are not oppressed in most (they are exceptions) of the West by any stretch of the imagination

planejane · 2018-10-02T21:31:35+00:00

Exempt from Selective Service (Draft)

Probably negligible. For us to be in a situation where the draft is instated, at this point in technological history, we'd have to be on the verge of Nuclear Winter.

On a personal note, as a servicemember who just got back from deployment, fuck the draft altogether. The last thing anyone would actually want is people of either gender serving who didn't want to be there.

Favored in Healthcare

This one requires a lot more nuance than that. How about how until recent history, drug trials only used male volunteers because they didn't want "female hormone cycles" interfering with results, so now commonly prescribed medications have unexpected results cause they've never been tested on women? Or how women with heart attacks present very differently than men and even still many health practitioners are not aware, so statistically many women that could've been treated appropriately die cause their symptoms aren't recognized?

Yes women "win" in some aspects of healthcare but the bottom line is it's a much more complicated assessment than this.

Lighter sentences for same crimes

Agreed, with the caveat of violent crimes. Are you seeking to punish based on intention/rehabilitation or possible damage done? The majority of the time, a guy beating the shit out of someone can do a lot more damage than a woman.

Exclusive Government Services

Agreed, again with a caveat- VA services, while shitty in many ways, are especially shitty to women. Even though the percentage of female vets is climbing higher every year, few VA centers have regular women's health or are equipped to offer services for those suffering from sexual trauma, especially when considering the rape/sexual assault rates in the military. I haven't looked up the statistics since 2016 but at the time there were exactly two VA homeless shelters that took in women, and hundreds for men.

Proportionally speaking, yes, there's many more male veterans but even with that in mind the resources for female servicemembers are shockingly abysmal in comparison.

Not net-taxpayers

Agreed

Diversity Quotas/Affirmative Action

Agreed

Default child custody in divorce

Agreed to a degree. Most men don't fight for full custody of their kids. The ones I know who did, have it.

No responsibility for drunken sex

Agreed.

Govt Subsidized Everything

Come on now. That's a heavy blanket statement to make.

Can rape men and still get child support

Convicted rapists can sue in most States to get visitation rights of the child they conceived DURING a rape. While not exactly the same thing, obviously this system is fucked on both ends, wouldn't you say?

Men arrested for defending selves

Agreed to a degree. Men can cause significantly more damage, on average.

Can falsely accuse men of rape without evidence

And nothing legal will happen to him. While I get that reputations can be destroyed and jobs lost, it's very, VERY difficult to obtain an actual conviction of rape. The Innocence Project shows WAY more people exonerated of MURDER than rape, cause to actually get a conviction requires a LOT of evidence.

On that note, thousands of rape kits across the country are sitting in cold storage and have yet to be processed due to finances of local municipalities. Fact of the matter is, it's sadly easy to "get away" with rape for just this reason, and people know that, which is why most people assume it's possible a woman was raped when she claims it.

Therefore, you want to get rid of false claims, fix the system-process the kits, advocate for more money to go to SVU investigations, harsher sentences for those actually convicted, and tighten up the system. If people believe it works, they're less likely to believe outright a woman who comes forward with nothing but a claim.

Can rape boys... Media

Agreed

Never responsible for their actions

Single motherhood is a pretty big responsibility. Yes they get Government help but for the majority of single moms, that's still their life.

Whoa haha amazing

chronoventer · 2018-10-20T23:08:32+00:00

r/theredpill needs to go back up. There are far too many incels on here. God forbid women want equality.

hemoglobinz · 2018-10-02T23:01:56+00:00

Disregarding the veracity of these claims, all of these things you described are the result of the patriarchy. It's a pretty basic concept: men benefit from feminism as well as women.

VermiciousKnidzz · 2018-10-02T20:16:50+00:00

every gender benefits and suffers from patriarchy in different respects. most of these stem from the BS idea that women are all delicate lil' creatures who cant do any wrong. which feminism and Red Pill both coincidentally want to do away with.

also, is it surprising that women have more focus in healthcare? aside from the fact that some necessary parts of women's healthcare (Access to abortion, BC, etc) are actively on the line, women literally give birth. of course healthcare wont be equal.

some of these (can accuse men of rape without evidence, women assumed custody) are bullshit MRA talking points.

HOLY MOLY ITS AN 2013 again and MRA s are HOT BABY!!!!!
