From Wikipedia: "The 2012 Delhi gang rape case involved a rape and fatal assault that occurred on 16 December 2012 in Munirka, a neighbourhood in South Delhi. The incident took place when a 23-year-old female physiotherapy intern Jyoti Singh was beaten, gang raped, and tortured in a private bus in which she was travelling with her friend, Awindra Pratap Pandey. There were six others in the bus, including the driver, all of whom raped the woman and beat her friend. Eleven days after the assault, …

The males portrayed like that are meant to be shown as the village idiots. When that happens a great deal, it is no less harmful than the old stereotype of showing women as the equivalent of village idiots. You are looking for sexism where it doesn’t exist. Call it sexism, fine, or I might call it a harmful stereotype. The name doesn't really matter. I'm saying it is not healthy for it to be seen as OK to routinely portray any group as deficient.

I can't speak to issues in paleontology, but in science in general, women's achievements did get badly discounted. See : "The Glass Universe: How the Ladies of the Harvard Observatory Took the Measure of the Stars" by Dava Sobel. While it is mainly a story of a few great breakthroughs, it is also a balanced and interesting picture of a period during which substantial contributions from women went from being discounted to beginning to get well deserved attention.

And I would say that wasn't sexual harassment either. As long as the tickling was about tickling or about pranking. My only point is that no matter who is doing it, if it is not sexual, let's go with that fact. Just because someone else says they see sexual harassment everywhere doesn't mean they are correct.

It makes a point and at that level it is useful. But I fulminate when feminists or other ideologues misuse language and twist concepts, and I do take them to task, so I should start being more careful of how I say things. Only fair.

You're right. And the charges would be erroneous.

Frequently it is said (correctly) that if a guy did such and such, he'd get accused of, say, sexual harassment, and that is frequently a true thing.

Knismophillia. Never heard of that one. knismophilliacs derive sexual pleasure from tickling and this is a well documented fetish The fact that a few people derive sexual pleasure from tickling or being tickled does not mean that same act is sexual for everyone. For most people tickling or being tickled is a gender /sexuality free thing. So, the act depicted may be sexual for that woman - or may not.

The title is not accurate. The unwanted tickling depicted here is not sexual harassment. This prank is indeed objectionable, intrusive, and inappropriate, and it could be called harassment, but it is not sexual in nature.

I love how the fact that we all have put in "too much" of one sort of labor, so that we can do "too little" of another kind gets lost in some of these discussions. It has been a workable (not perfect, but manageable) exchange / arrangement. Frequently, men deal with an excess of the crap of the work place, and get to (in general) deal with less at home. Or, in the modern twist, the stay at home dad reverses the roles. Each pays here and reaps a benefit there. The activists deliberately imagine t…

The thing I am wondering about is the people who do not show up. Your experience, which I am not questioning, is with those who do show up. You are dealing with people well enough to seek help. It's the folks who don't who may be most badly hurt. See an exact analogy: https://www.motherjones.com/kevin-drum/2010/09/counterintuitive-world

There may be a filtering mechanism at play. If my explanation is correct, you will be less likely to hear from people who do experience shame, and more likely to hear from people who do not. What you have is anecdotal evidence from one population, but have not sought out evidence from people who do experience shame. Those who talk are those who find it easier or safer to talk.

The largest issue is when consent is able to be revoked retroactively - "I said yes back then and meant it then, but now I mean no and you should not have listened and now it's rape back then".

When someone, in this case, the author of that article, uses the phrase "rape culture", that person is not likely to be dealing with reality. The phrase implies that all men are in on a vast conspiracy to subjugate and violate women. It's the same with nasty language like "the patriarchy" and "toxic masculinity", sweeping all men into one negatively stereotyped grouping.

I know we see all sorts of crappy stuff from feminists who try to crap on men and try to make fragility seem somehow a male trait and somehow bad. At some level we are all fragile. We all have some breaking point. Fragility does not equate to "bad" - it's human - not even male vs female. I've had people close to me in my life who have been suicidal, including a parent, and who have dealt with depression. It's just human. That poor guy had his limits and had too much to deal with.

A few random thoughts - I'm not saying the guy is somehow bad or defective. I'm saying he was human and had his limits. The guy went through way too much. I probably would have had many of the same thoughts and reactions. Who knows, I might have killed myself. I'm human and fragile too. I've had suicidal people in my life. Each has been especially fragile.

True. I have not gone through it. I do not mean fragile as defective. I mean fragile as human and not able to withstand such a miserable situation.

"Open up with your feelings" is a part of the disingenuous verbiage loosed upon men by those feminists (and allies) who have an investment in intentionally misunderstanding guys.

I could find only one use of the phrase "thot audit" in the thread you reference. How is that an infestation? Not a flood of evil 4chan activity. Not even proof of 4chan activity for that matter. And "leaf", I could not find. Maybe references were on continued threads one has to click on to follow? I do see trolls pretty much everywhere all over Reddit and most online discussions, but not 4chan or incels, and I'm a bit confused by your fear of a plague of 4chan incel trolls.

If you ask (or get asked) the wrong question, you get the wrong answer. Leaders are individuals. There is no simple gender distinction that makes men or women better leaders in general. Just because someone says you have to choose one does not make it so. I have no idea how porn could possibly be related to the title question. Set that aside. Any answer that says men are better, or women are better is flawed, stereotyped, and sexist. There are men I would not follow and women I would.

There are lots of compulsory actions in any democracy. Being compelled to vote, or to pay taxes, or to drive on the right on a public road (left some places), all are compulsory because they are mostly agreed upon by the electorate.

I am wary of labeling traits as either masculine or feminine. We share almost all traits and those traits only vary in proportion, and on average. Defining "good" and "bad" traits for guys by how masculine those traits may seem to be is cutting of part of one's humanity.

I'd say let's just not engage in unhealthy attitudes no matter what label, masculine or feminine, might be attached.

Quite seriously, do you really want to start off by imagining that I have never opened a history book, and saying so without evidence? If you are going to call me unlettered, you should know me better than that. I'll do you the favor of not returning insult. Instead, I'll offer my view. Of course, men are most named in something like 99%+ of written history. The differing biological roles of men and women through history have created that gender disparity.

Of course some women lie. While any group of people will have some liars, that isn't the point.

I do not disagree that there is a real basis in what you say. While my experience is almost certainly different, I see what you speak of in terms of expectations put upon men. We are in agreement that they exist. My concern involves the use of a stereotype - a phrase used as a derogatory term that implicates all men with undesirable characteristics of only a subset of people. There is no good reason not to use more precise language from the start. Regardless, I don't wish to beat this to death. …

I wouldn't try to say society treats males and females the same. Our culture has differing role definitions and expectations for men and women, but the extremes I mentioned and the somewhat outlying examples you mention do not encompass the variability of roles in either gender. For example, most guys do not get told to be without feelings, but they do experience expectations that they will work with their feelings, and express their feelings differently than most women. I was not brought up to …

Because it's more than a bad upbringing. No, it's mere bad upbringing, and for that matter, some women are brought up to be "tough" or "not show feelings". The phrase toxic masculinity is inaccurate and tends to indict all men no matter how much the users of the phrase may try to deny it. It is a bad bit of language. Other words are more focused and more accurate.
/r/MensRights06/08/19 05:33 PM

So why call it toxic masculinity? Just call it bad upbringing. Exactly. The phrase "toxic masculinity" is designed to paint all men as bad - no matter how much some users of the phrase may say, "only some men", it is like a shotgun, hitting everything nearby. Your phrase "bad upbringing" is far better.

Free stuff for all seems like a bad idea in general because we can all find some item that costs that we are condemned by gender to need. And nothing is really "free". Someone always pays. Were there some huge public benefit I would feel differently; like if free tampons would stop war or change public health overall. So, no to free period products. Birth control for women (and men) might have a case for social benefit. Unwanted or unplanned children can be catastrophic for the parents.

Reasonable people can disagree over definitions, or over the usage of a phrase. To me, "toxic masculinity" feels like a tool to portray all men as toxic while at the same time the speaker can claim deniability by saying "well, not all men". I think the term is manipulative, disingenuous, and dishonest. There are lots of people who are miserable to deal with. Some are men. Some are women.

The women mentioned - and others - appear to be putting in a ton of work. I cannot imagine they are getting rich off making videos, blogs, talks... The women I am seeing in videos etc., seem sincere. I believe they are speaking from the heart. A woman critiquing feminist stances may be more effective than a guy saying the same. The guy could be seen as furthering his own interests. The guy reaps more reward than cost when he tries to further his own interests. A woman may be seen as incurring mo…

A quick glance at Rollo Tomassi's twitter does not impress. His words regarding a men's conference seem to embody the same sort of distorted thinking that I object to in some feminists, that nothing good can come of anything the "bad" sex does. That sort of thinking causes problems - is the problem - taking some real or imagined trait of one member of a group and labeling all of the group with that trait. I don't like it when feminists do it and I don't like it any better when some guy does it. …

I'm not an evolutionary psychologist but a fair reconstruction of our origins suggests reasons that people overlook aggressions against males vs aggressions against females. Go back to pre-history and back to the dawn of human origins. We have a very long period of gestation and an exceedingly long period during which the infants and children are utterly dependent upon the older members of the family or village. It is a fair guess that the men did a lot of the hunting and also defended the women…

You can prove this yourself via mathematical induction if you want Only within a system that you have defined and axiomatized to fit a set of rhetorical purposes. I suspect your axioms and assumptions won't stand outside scrutiny. So, could you please show us your math, starting with your values, and the assumptions and axioms that flow from them? Please, clearly indicate what you deem axiomatic or self evident. And then, please show us your logical edifice.

Indeed. Though maybe pay could be negotiated higher.

Is this connected to this men's rights sub? Maybe I'm missing something. There are valid issues in the principle's message, but telling kids they matter has real value too. Is this a men's rights thing? Maybe since male black kids do get targeted faster than white kids?

thought that that would be appreciated by the sub. I was wrong. I don't think you can judge by a single commenter.

Good question. Somehow that quote did not set off my alarms in anywhere near the same way the APA hitpiece did. I guess that I didn't feel like it was saying "all men" are bad, because man (and people) are often at the center of trouble. Simple fact. Funny, I was way more bothered by the disingenuous subliminal messages in the Gillette piece than this one. Same for the APA guidelines. I'll have to watch this piece again in light of your comment.

The video seems comparatively innocuous to me. I do not feel the same about the recent APA Guidelines for Psychological Work with Men and Boys. The pdf reads like a feminist socio-political diatribe, gender politics thinly cloaked as a guideline but offering little for therapeutic intervention. See: www.apa.org/about/policy/boys-men-practice-guidelines.pdf

People who act inappropriately can pop up at any time, in any job, in any part of one's life. Your suggestion gives control of one's life to anyone who happens along..

Were other parents there too - who might be able corroborate? Did the teacher say other inappropriate things?

With the issues she seems to have, it isn't surprising she cannot react appropriately. Sounds like large maturity issues.

Men want female rapists to be arrested, charged, and convicted with rape... Feminists fought against this in Israel, claiming that changing the law would result in men filing false rape claims. The irony.

In a way she made your point for you, that the law (really, the humans who apply the law) is so structurally biased that men get more arduous sentencing, and probably see their decisions as completely reasonable. The same group of judges - mostly but not exclusively male - are tougher on guys. I believe that some places have some jury input on sentencing in certain circumstances which would be closer to 50/50 male female. Not sure on that. I suspect that in general, women are the beneficiaries o…

I should note that I do not mean to suggest you kinda jam it down their throat at the last instant, but to put one thing that is little seen in the context of another thing that is little seen. A gentler approach that might be more likely to actually get heard. Maybe the invitation to a longer conversation. Nuance.

the professor opened up the class on day 1 asking what our preferred pronouns were ... if he deemed it necessary to keep his class a “safe space” or whatever... If your school has "safe spaces", "trigger warnings" etc. I hope you'll take care of yourself first. I don't know if it would be a cop out - or a tactical side step - or maybe the start of an interesting discussion, to list off, say, the stats on homeless women, women's suicide... with an emphasis on the fact that these people live and d…

I have a very different, and more positive, reaction to this ad than to the Gillette ad. This ad is women-positive rather than being male-negative. All the difference in the world.

Like I said, my ideas are probably not good - however - if you take as your job, writing as best you can, the facts that support her thesis, and leave the opposite position as a separate job for a future day, as if you were in a debate and assigned to do this, it is good writing practice. It might be a good idea to have a couple of other teachers take a look at your writing so that it is the best and most articulate statement you can produce. While the ideas the teacher espouses may be narrow an…

Weighing in here very late - I would love to hear how this is playing out. Perhaps at some point you could do an update? An idea that struck me would be - and it's a bad idea because it doubles the work involved - to write two papers. One in concord with your teacher's notions. One against. Write each as best you can, and support each with the best facts you can find and bring to bear. I know - bad idea. But then again, part of the learning value of report writing is to get practice in writing, …

There's the literal message of the original Gillette ad, essentially platitudes, and then there's what people hear. If a small number of viewers were annoyed or offended, it would be a credible explanation to say they were thin skinned or have unresolved guilt, but the ad poked a well populated hornet's nest. A very large number of folks, interestingly including a number of women, don't care for the tone and implications about men. A lot of people, including me, feel it smears all men with the s…
