A thought about male empowerment vs female empowerment.

SerpentCypher · 2023-10-17T14:11:39+00:00

Male empowerment is about how to better yourself. How to improve and become great. The hero's story.

Female empowerment is you are perfect exactly as you are, and it's the world's job to recognise that.

Womens lib, in more recent years, has been about rigging the game for women. They play the rigged game and assume they are better. Equality, shoved down our throats the way it has been, is an absolute farce. I don't really fault women, but at the same time I do think that a lot of women have become entitled and self-centred because of the rules of the game.

Mens lib is about noticing the game is rigged and there are lots of bad players out there, and finding a different game despite society shaming you for not playing "the game."

Absolutely, modern pop music is a huge red pill if you pay attention to the lyrics.

Nowdays, women's pop songs are generally much more often angry and spiteful than men's.

And even love songs are pretty different. Men usually sing about how much they adore their partner, what they would do for her, often about family etc. while women's love songs are usually a variation "you drive me crazy and make me horny" - basically odes to Chad.

Are we just excluding every fuck-bitches-get-money rap song?

KlugOz · 2023-10-17T10:46:54+00:00

Women are more privileged than anyone has ever been but they have to keep up the narrative that they're still oppressed victims so they can continue to do questionable things without judgment

Also yes male empowerment songs are about giving free shit to women, it's part of the sexist feminism message

Comfortable-Dare-307 · 2023-10-17T14:09:42+00:00

Third wave feminism is about putting men down and being nasty to men. That's their entire movement. Feminists don't care about equality anymore. They just care about playing the victim and blaming men instead of being responsible.

I've never heard any songs about male or female empowerment. So I can't say much to this regard. But I also don't listen to rap or hip hop.

anonymousUser1SHIFT · 2023-10-17T08:37:33+00:00

It dates back to the first and second way of feminism where men did actually control women in multiple wrong ways.

Being nasty to men was basically the same as slaves being nasty to their masters and getting away with it, and It was a form of rebelling.

The problem is third way feminism hasn't done anything productive, it continues to push the same notion even though men don't and haven't owned women for a long time. Third wave feminism just pushes and sell the ideology that women are always the victims of men so they can do they can continue the fight for supremacy, instead of developing and pushing women into developing different forms of employment.

Which concludes my reasoning as to why third wave feminism is a cult.

Foot note: it's actually so funny to watch interviews about third wave feminism with women who participate in the first and second wave of feminism. You guys thing red pill is ruthless, oh boy wait till you hear some 80 to 100 year old shred these modern ladies for spitting on their movement.

I think maybe men have overestimated the extent to which women have let bygones be bygones. Could be that on some level they are still pissed for what they see as millennia of enslavement by men.

endless_yearning · 2023-10-17T06:37:12+00:00

You kinda have a point but then again I hear so many songs where men have revenge porn fantasies about "she didn't want me back then, now I'm up" so I think both genders do this a lot.

operation-spot · 2023-10-17T10:00:47+00:00

Women are constantly told that they need to be nice and appear in distress so men can feel needed. Outright saying fuck you or focusing on yourself is breaking those expectations. It’s not really about men, it’s about defeating the expectations others have but often a man is part of those expectations so they are inadvertently impacted.

Male empowerment also includes power fantasies of having lots of money and bitches so let’s not act like it’s about men bettering themselves, it’s about wanting sex and power.

l00ks-p1lled · 2023-10-17T10:06:01+00:00

Men try so much to act though and don't admit that what they are really after is a genuine connection and the validation that comes with it, however they struggle to get it so they try to act like they don't care.

as for Women I think that they have deep down an inferiority complex towards men and try to overcompensate flexing how much they are superior

silverhippo15 · 2023-10-17T14:51:41+00:00

Women have a giant inferiority complex which they are not very good at hiding. Nudge them a little bit and they will pop like a fucking balloon. Half the shit they do is so child-like. It can be cute sometimes but it's mostly cringe. No, it's cute if she's pretty and unpleasant at best otherwise.

januaryphilosopher · 2023-10-17T06:48:17+00:00

Women are generally pressured to be everything at once, so empowerment for women is being content with being just okay. (Most of the songs, when a man is mentioned, will mention him in the context of freeing themselves from his expectations, which represent broader social expectations. But usually no man is mentioned, even if it's mentioned how great women can be.) Men have low expectations set, so empowerment for men is to be guided by goals and work towards achieving them and bettering yourself.

WebBorn2622 · 2023-10-17T09:59:44+00:00

There’s plenty of male empowerment songs about sticking it to the man (their boss) or sticking it to society. There’s also plenty of female empowerment songs about being beautiful the way you are, about making a life for yourself, etc.
Women do get abused by men in way higher numbers than men get abused by women. For a lot of women the gap between where they are and where they want to be is to escape an abusive man.
Women do have higher chances at building something for themselves if they are divorced. Women in marriages have less free time, make less money, have worse mental health and a lower life expectancy. Many women won’t achieve much with a man in the picture

Cethlinnstooth · 2023-10-17T09:57:42+00:00

So exactly how long is your commute that you can obtain a big enough sample of 3 minute pop songs?

upsidemaze · 2023-10-17T09:24:36+00:00

Male empowerment is to become a jacked, career having, child raising, chores doing ninja. Thing is that can be achieved if men would just get up their ass and put in work. There are many shortcuts and tricks to "hard work" SAHMs do. Men by being empowered add value to his woman's life and improves their relationships

Women Empowerment is to become a career having, super mom. They want to have it all. It can be achieved but tend to make a lot of women miserable and torpedo their relationships, because they are not able to add value to their man's life. Its just easier to blame at man then seriously look in the mirror.

Relationships are not about defeating men, because if women try hard enough, they will succeed in defeating their man. He will just walk away with his tails tucked between his legs to play with someone else

HighestTierMaslow · 2023-10-17T22:57:41+00:00

You have confirmation bias. Plenty of material out there where female empowerment never contains the word "man"

Rogue5454 · 2023-10-17T08:43:40+00:00

It’s think it’s because women don’t have equality yet from those who’ve always been “built up” & encouraged to succeed.

Well as far as male empowerment songs being equivalent to female empowerment songs, are there any male empowerment songs about sticking it to the woman or pumping and dumping women?
