This is what women tell each other without any thought into how the government actually treats men as resources. If men could get pregnant, Men of childbearing age would need permission to leave the country, and birth control for men would be illegal with a 5 digit fine for breaking it.

https://old.reddit.com/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates/comments/1iek6g6/gender_bias_on_reddit_a_sentiment_analysis_of_140/?ref=share&ref_source=link This redditor did something similar to r/relationship_advice, a subreddit with a lot of overlap, and the results are exactly what you'd expect, that misandry is the mainstay there. It's not a published study like the one that did sentiment analysis for feminism gendercritical mensrights and incel, but seemingly studies trying to measure misandry never get f…

And of course she quotes Lundy Bancroft, "domestic violence expert" who fun fact, hates male victims so much he does not like the term domestic violence, instead he prefers when it was explicitly gendered to exclude male victims. From the horses mouth, Twenty years or so ago, we started to hear that it was important to talk more about male victims. The argument was that it would give our movement against domestic violence more appeal, because men would realize that it can happen to them too. We’…

The real answer is because men are the socially accepted group to commit violence against.

So, these are numbers that only exist from the most sexist sources available. Your source cites the department of justice in 2002 for it's 99% claim, but that is of course including data from before the idea that men could be raped. It was 2013 before the U.S. would change it's definition of rape to include male victims: Previously, offense data for forcible rape was collected under the legacy UCR definition: the carnal knowledge of a female forcibly and against her will. Beginning with the 2013…

Hinge is Ironically fucking named for me today. Opened it up, first profile is a woman with a picture of a hat saying "3rd wife material", one of her prompts is just "please shut the fuck up". Second profile is a lady with a voicenote straight up trauma dumping about being robbed and knocked unconscious. One of her prompts is literally just asking for guys to leave a 1 star review on a business that fired her.

Admittedly, we are getting kind of into the weeds here, here let me change tone to make it clear: I think you believe that you are right all the time, and debate clearly without bullshitting. I think that is itself, bullshit. If you say, "I don't bullshit" in response to "You may bullshit more than you think", than yes, you are saying I was wrong. Flat out? Arguably, no. Functionally yes.

"Something I don't do" Yeah. See, this complete lack of nuance in that assertion is exactly why I think you do in fact do it. Every "accusation" I have thrown at you has come with the implicit implication I could be wrong about it. I have given myself room to be wrong, because I do not and cannot completely understand the circumstances. I am doing that purposefully so that I am not doing what I'm accusing you of.

I mean swapping out water for milk does alter the chemistry of the baked good… Point missed. I'm saying that asking clarifying questions can be good and get you past giving a just world fallacy, but it by no means does on it's own. You can absolutely still be falling into it despite that, if you are asking questions looking for something to poke a hole in their story. Personality is a good example you brought up. You can't really judge their personality or vibe, so assessing any issue to that un…

Alright, but if you're asking questions to find something you can latch onto to then say the person is wrong, it can still be a just world fallacy, just extrapolated a little bit. If we go back to the bread, there is a difference between "Well, did you bake it in a Kitchenmaster 4000" "No I used my oven, a Whirlpool" "Aha, that's your problem, see you did it wrong! The recipe would have worked if you used a Kitchenmaster." And "Well, did you substitute any ingredients?" "Yeah, I wanted it to be …

You aren't wrong, people really don't trust narrators here. Which is part of why they use the just world fallacy. Not trusting the narrator doesn't suddenly make the world just, it just obfuscates the problem. The correct response to "Well I tried this and it didn't work" is not "Well you did it wrong" or "Well the plans broken let me entirely reconsider". It's "Well, while I understand that it might not have worked out for you, and it will not work for everyone, it is still the generally best p…

The "Just world fallacy" does not only apply to people being good and bad, it's an argumentative fallacy. It's like this, if you write out a recipe for making bread, and then somebody follows that recipe to the letter, but the bread doesn't rise because the amount of yeast in the air is different from the environment of the person who wrote the recipe, then the person following the recipe might say "this recipe doesn't work" and the person who wrote it might say "you are bad baker". This is the …

It's hard to keep up appearances when you don't have a house to do so from. You probably have, but you didn't realize it because the guy who is handsome but lives out of a van in line in front of you at the grocery store isn't clockable as homeless from his appearance. Being visibly pathetic is how panhandlers and beggars get money. Pretty privilege is real in general, but when it comes to charity, people want to feel like that person needs their help. Have you seen any pretty homeless women?

Where? The worst I'm seeing is "condoms are better" and "You're wrong about the side effects" neither of which is really a lack of support for them, especially not in any regard to their opinion of paternal surrender.

The male pill is viable. And I asked why men don't support this. Who says they don't support it? Your evidence for them not supporting it is that they also support paternal surrender? "I like pancakes!" "Why do you hate waffles?" Kind of thinking there. Should women stop supporting abortion because female birth control exists? Or are those entirely seperate things in your mind in a way that this isn't? Wait, let me make it easier. What about maternal surrender? It's legal in all 50 states that a…

If the "male pill" was viable, i.e. offered significant contraceptive effect with tolerable side effects, it'd be a multi-billion dollar patent. And companies know it. That's why it gets millions in research funding and according to r/science has been "right around the corner" for decades.

Animals are capable of harm, humans are capable of healing. Dogs and cats have no concept of abuse or nuanced takes on violence. They are still only a step away from the law of the jungle. Hell, in dire enough circumstances, so are we. If you fuck around, you're going to find out. If your cat is truly attacking you for no reason, then take it to the vet and maybe a shelter.

What I’m pointing out is the risk that comes when survival depends on that support. That’s a different scenario than “my partner helps out with bills for a while.” That’s "I can’t sustain myself without them," and it creates a massive imbalance of power. And nobody was talking about dating exclusively to get those things. Bringing this up at all is either derailing or strawmanning. knows it’s not rare and it's not a minor risk.

You’re focusing on edge cases and emotional appeals instead of addressing the core argument. No I'm not, you are. You are focusing on abuse cases as if they are the norm and holding them up as "This is the risk", and that's a bullshit framing. The vast, overwhelming majority of cases of somebody getting the benefit of having a partner for security, is that their partner just helps them put when they needed it, they get back on their feet, and continue from there. That however, doesn't stir the r…

Even in my marriage, I still earn enough that I could afford my own place if needed. Yeah, but you put your money together and have nicer things than you could afford on your own, right? Economic benefit right there. While you say that you were raised not to be financially dependent, are you going to ask for divorce if you get laid off, because you'd rather stick to that than go against how you were raised? So like I said, I want to buy a house and I really wish I wasn't trying to do it alone. T…

What? Where did I say anything about an expiration date? I don't assume that a woman who relies on her partner's help to get back on her feet, would then break up with him after she has. That's psychotic. And there are definitely economic benefits to being in a relationship. Shit, being a single guy who wants to buy a house has made that very clear to me. Edit: i can see the mistake. When I said "needs it for a bit" I only meant the help, not the help and relationship.

That is an insane leap from your evidence to your argument. I can think of several complicating factors you'd have to adjust for before making that claim. Maybe its just socially rougher to be a single man than a single woman? 2 important test points, how happy are asexual aromantic men, and how do straight men's relationship satisfaction compare to gay men's? Maybe the inverse, being a married woman is just much easier than being a married man? Again, check against asexual aromantics, and lesbi…

When someone says, “A relationship can get you a place to stay and provide security,” they’re not talking about casual help. See that right there? Thats an assumption. A pretty far fetched one too. Plenty of people do get places to stay and stability from relationships, without purposefully trying to do it. Some people might look for a relationship with that motive in mind, that's rarer and I would hope anyone doing that is doing it temporarily to get back on their feet again, and not trying to …

Once you find the person you want to be with this entire benefit basically disappears. Kind of? Once you spend a dollar, you lose the dollar, but you still have the thing you spent it on. Once you get the career you'll keep until retiring, all the benefit of sexist hiring dissappears, but just like with the relationship, you still have that job, and you can't really know if it'll actually last so the potential for it to help is still there. Same goes for the home as well, really.

So OP said a relationship can get you a place to stay and security. You immedietely assumed that meant a completely dependent relationship, instead of just help, why? I'm not conflating dependence with help, you are making out all access to help to be dependence, when that's not true at all.

it’s a terrible long-term strategy. Why did you take the idea that a woman can depend on a man, and suddenly slippery slope it into becoming a stay at home partner reliant on their other half? It just as easily can be someone who needs it for a bit, and gets into a relationship to get that security, but then becomes self reliant again. That relationship can be "genuinely fulfilling" the entire time. There is a ton of willing help, that is just that, help. You aren't "handing over control" of you…

The pregnant woman statistic is so thoroughly over tread because it's misleading. The reason homicide is their number 1 cause of death is because a young woman making regular hospital visits and avoiding dangerous activities is incredibly safe in every other way. the homicide rate for pregnant women is a grand total of ~3 per 100,000. The homicide rate for a 18 year old boy just existing is ~46 per 100,000. Even if we do some napkin math and apply that ~90% of men are murdered by other men, that…

Ah, found some stats finally: 5% of women were victims only, 12% were perpetrators only, 27% participated in reciprocal violence, and 55% reported no IPV. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3775877/ So yes, it seems women also are more likely to be abusive during hard times like pregnancy, and at an even higher rate of 1 directional violence than men, though we can probably assume because of basic sexual dimorphism that results were worse for women.

So it's a 30% to 40% rise, for women. Although what I really wanted to see was how much that compares to men getting abused by pregnant women, because many of the factors I laid out apply to them too. Like financial hardship knows no gender. Sadly, I cannot find any statistics regarding that. Like, not even an off mention of it. Which is wild, you'd think one source would mention it just for comparisons sake, but I straight up can't find any. Also, you laid out 1 cause and of course this source …

We all know it’s a fact men are more likely to leave sick or injured wifes. No we don't. Some of us know that that is a misandrist urban myth that was retracted and no follow up study has ever been able to replicate. But a lie that lets you hate who you already wanted to hate can get around the world twice before the truth can tie its shoelaces, so doctors still give misandrist advice.

doctors have to have a talk about a woman’s supportive group after a diagnosis Because a misandrist narrative was pushed, that you still believe in despite the narrative being false from the start.

How do I put this... I think this is like, the opposite problem of a shit test.

So do some guys work like this? Just like shit tests, yes some do. I don't think there's any reason to buy into it as a core part of how relationships work.

My general impression now is that there was clearly violence going both ways, and so Amber heard's statement about being a public figure of a domestic violence victim is absolutely correct and should not have been defamatory. There was clear signs of misinformation and purposeful propagandizing from the Depp team to make him out to be a victim and only a victim, and it worked, there really was no way he should have won that trial.

You had me until "accuse women of thoughtcrime". This train of thought is way more demonizing towards men and way more excusing of women.

Perhaps this is an odd take, but I genuinely don't think there is much of anything wrong with being attracted to people or expressing it, as long as your still respectful about it. This is very clearly some sexual objectification, but they aren't hurting anyone with these comments. It's just that women, by a metric which cannot be measured or explained by anything other than vibes, are "overly sexualized" so it's more upsetting or something I guess.

Being loved and respected by your partner is not mutually exclusive from being treated differently based on your physical appearance or financial status. Princess treatment is not a synonym for good, for which any deviancy means bad. If this is creating a hierarchy among women, it's coming from a place that cannot see different lifestyles as equal, which is somewhat patriarchal in nature, but does not originate from men, as I have never seen a man bring up the concept of "princess treatment" eve…

Yeah I got plans for a cut bulk cycle. That plan is just permanent bulk, because cutting is for people who want to look good, I want to make the funny numbers go up. But yeah, I lift clean and it's quite a jump. Only 1 way to find out if I can do it though.

You can do it, I'm sure. DMing is honestly only as hard as you make it. I've run both published adventures and honebrew ones, and published stuff does already do a lot of the work for you, if you prefer that. Map making, encounter design, basic plots, all good to already have the work done. It helps if you can find a way to consistently sit yourself down to put the work in, which is something I think every DM struggles with.

Well, I have one group that meets online every Friday that has 2 DMs, and we alternate campaigns every week. Or at least, that was what we were doing, but now the other DM's campaign is finished and we are working out what to do next while I run. The other group is just newly formed, some of my nerdier relatives played BG3, knew that I DM 5e and wanted to try it so they've gathered some friends and I'll start running for that group after the holidays.

3, 4, and 5 are bad resolutions. They are too open ended for you to use them as actual goals. Maybe swap 3 for learn (Number of your choice) number of recipes instead of just "more". For 4 and 5 I'd say try to find a way to express those ideas instead of just the generality. Like if you want to be more grateful, find something you usually take for granted and make a note to appreciate it. I.E. "I am going to say thank you to everyone that cooks for me".

There are a few other differences. The big one being that the guy who attempted to kill Trump also very much did kill an innocent bystander, and also failed in his goal.

I think it's fine to see it as an accusation of cheating, or paranoia about the possibility of it. I also think any lady saying she would get divorced over it is way overreacting.

That guy would of course be a major asshole, and I see it the same for paternity tests.

I'm going to ruin your night here, but there isn't any special kind of "super love" that guys are holding onto only for the girls they are really really into. Everyone gets the same. There is no "like you specifically" there just him, and you, who said yes. It's the saying yes part that made you special to him, not anything else. And you can skip straight ahead to the being special part by asking him.

Your "fix" is worse than the original. Agency means the ability to choose. So what then, you think a woman who chooses not to sleep around doesn't exist? Every woman either sleeps around because she can, or she doesn't because she can't? And that's not even getting into the travesty that would be the implication of "having sex = having the ability to choose" that would come with rape...

"Both sides-" Absolutely not. They tried this shit in 2020 and now of course they're trying it again. One side is clearly and obviously much worse. Kamala was pretty goddamn honest, for a politician. Trump told obvious lies, said shit that clearly betrayed a lack of understanding, and of course was racist as fuck on live TV. There is a reason Kamala was not fact checked by the moderators like Trump was. No, it was not because of bias.

Politics is the movement of power. In your life and everybody else's. Throwing away your vote for any reason is dumb, but it is yours to do with as you wish. And deciding how you want your life, and the life of everybody else in the country to be impacted based on who annoys you the most, instead of what they would do? Also dumb, but it's your vote to do with as you wish.

"Infidelity"? Really? That is as much infidelity as playing an action game is violence. I get why you would want your partner to only he attracted to you and no one else. It can feed insecurity to understand that even while you might be special to them, you'll never be as special as you might want to be.

From of all places, I think some video games have addressed this problem well. In that many games have tried to use a player rating system that leads to misery, but what is usually very well received is a "Kudos" system. Where instead of asking for direct feedback or having a positive/negative rating, instead the only option is a positive one, and being given a positive rating has a benefit. For example, if you don't get Kudos-ed after unmatching, you continue as normal, but if you do get Kudos-…

You are mostly right, but disclaimer is needed that the "giveaway" is a shallow correlation, not causation. You can want to have sex for own pleasure without it being objectifying too. And you can fantasize about wanting to give pleasure in a way that is objectifying. And none of that is the real point I was jokingly making, that being that people (mostly women) need to break out of this harmful self-victimizing mindset that all/most of men's desire is objectifying.

In the 90s, the first gaming companies could only make extremely simple games that were mostly only entertaining for children, so they were sold as kids toys.

Chemical castration is a lot more dangerous, it's not like there's been a large scale health and safety verified test for a castration drug, so allowing it would be a huge health risk. And most people who would even want such a thing would probably prefer to have surgery like a hysterectomy or a vasectomy.

This sounds a lot like you don't actually care about the problem or it's causes, you just don't want anything to change so we should all accept that the cause is the one completely unchangeable and unavoidable one.

Yeah, I agree with all that.

The loneliness epidemic didn't start 50 years ago though. It is a problem of the last decade, maybe 2.

This is a disingenuous framing. The increasing amount of loneliness isn't coming from a population that had to marry out of necessity vs. a population that didn't, it's 2 populations that didn't have to marry out of necessity, so this as an explanation makes no sense. And yes, if things are going badly for a lot of people on a huge scale, it almost always because of a systemic issue.

Most Men's leagues already are technically open leagues, it's just that practically no women are capable of competing at the highest levels. Or if they are, they don't play because they are highly elite players in women's leagues, but would be middle of the pack in men's leagues.

"It's not about karma" It's extremely silly to keep saying that lonely guys, by nature of just being lonely, are showing that they aren't doing enough.

You really need Occam's razor.

The way you describe cucks makes no sense for anything I've ever seen about the subject. I think you are mostly talking about swingers or something and using the wrong word.

Some people seem to be here to confirm their own biases, some people are here because they think they are going to change minds, some people are just here for the sense of community, some people are here just to kill time. Why are you here, and follow up, do you ever consider why somebody else is here while your arguing with them?

Man it's almost like this whole attractiveness thing is somewhat subjective. Maybe we can come up with a catchy, redpill-esque phrase for it. Something like "Diversified looksmaxxing" or "Attractiveness agency" or something really really red pilled like: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder".

Absolutely not. gloomette is young and inexperienced and is distinctly talking out of her ass and responding to rage-bait 90% of the time. Lillith creates her on ragebait by implication but doesn't include the last 10% of the argument she obviously gesturing towards, then acts offended that you said she crossed that bridge when she didn't. Both are very irritating argument styles, but they are very distinct.

I very much agree that some guys do use it to dehumanize, and it's obvious when they do. And they know that they are doing it, but don't like it be pointed out because half of the point of it is the plausible deniability of doing it. It's a little dig that they think they can get away with because it's usually not the point, and by bringing attention to it you are distracted from the other point.

It's pretty well known that Japanese police/prosecution only goes after nearly sure win cases. Meaning that a LOT of cases that have merit never get their proper chance for justice. As of 2001, Japan has a conviction rate of over 99.8%, even higher than contemporary authoritarian regimes. Scholars say the biggest reason for Japan's very high conviction rate is the country's low prosecution rate and the way Japan calculates its conviction rate is different from other countries. https://en.wikiped…

Only if the point of your argument is the attack. If your argument doesn't work because it is specifically targeted at members of a group, then your argument is shit. Sorry, not sorry. Nobodies allegiance to a group is the thing that can be wrong, it's the thing you are saying that group is doing. So removing taking away the possibility of upsetting them because of their allegiance (or maybe membership of or something else is a better word) is a better argument, every time.

The best piece of advice I can give anyone here for having compelling arguments: ungender your language. Seriously. If you are making generalizations about any group, really, REALLY consider if you can swap it for "people" instead. This one trick will stop so much backlash because it makes people feel less attacked. And if your a trite bastard like I am, you can then point out that you didn't specify a group if they bring one up, therefore making them the one to apply that generalization to that…

I think it very much comes from both sides. Men will call things degenerate, but women complain about things being for the male gaze, how women being sexualized is objectifying no matter how much agency that woman actually has in her own sexualization, and of course, the classic "predatory". I think you have to be turning a huge blind eye to think it's only coming from one side or the other.

Some things can be completely true and completely reasonable, but still unkind to bring up. "I don't trust you" is an example.

Be careful with what you call evil, or else your will to do good will be co-opted for it.

Most social progress comes at personal expense. When you've identified a problem, the next question should always be "What are you willing to give to solve it?" Money? Time?

Perfect answer, 10/10, no notes. Sort of related, but I wonder how much this applies to paradox of gendered suicide where women attempt more but men go through with it more. Like, men have to build up to much higher level of unhappiness to make an attempt, which leads to more certain outcomes.

AFAIK, "no accountability" is hyperbole, but there definitely is a great degree of "benevolent sexism" given to women.

No. The ones you read said that, and you read those ones because they got a lot of engagement because everybody loves a feel good story about a pedophile being brutalized. The times where an innocent man is fucked over by a crazy lady don't get as much engagement because they tend to be downers.

Divorce the welfare of men from your definition of patriarchy. All men could die tomorrow, and women could keep patriarchy alive and well all by themselves. It is an attitude towards society and gender, not an ideology about men being better off than women. Although it does, or arguably did, create a society that made men better off, it isn't the sole defining thing that patriarchy is.

I think people want to do this, but the conditions for it are hard. People want to teach their sons to be the kind of people who are successful and care for others, but how do you teach a man to do that, while reconciling that you need to teach him how to be self-made because other people in general aren't going to care about him? Like wise, how do you help a daughter find a man who cares for her and treats her right, while reconciling that there are many people who will only pretend to care, or…

I think a lot of guys find it hard to imagine being raped by a woman.

You've put the cart before the horse, bud. "female" isn't dehumanizing because the word carries a negative connotation, the word has a negative connotation because people used it to dehumanize. It's like the word "gay". It's fine on it's own, but people use it as an insult, and that's where the problem comes from. Before the internet age people did not use "female" they way they started to in incel circles and on 4chan. So no, "female" as it's used in feminism predates that baggage.

Picking the bear is misandrist. If it comes from a place of fear because you've had bad experiences with men, it's still misandrist. "Guys who don't get why we pick the bear, or argue against it are the reason we pick the bear" This is a stupid ass Kafka trap to justify your bigotry. It's a non-argument to shut down conversation you'd rather not have, because your wrong. It's very easy to win arguments when you decide defense is proof of guilt.

You can't force somebody to not be misandrist the same way you can't force somebody to not be misogynist. But you can reduce misandry the same ways you can reduce misogyny, by calling it out when it rears it's head, by challenging peoples assumptions and being more informative, and by including it in education as something that exists and should be avoided.

Yeah, it's definitely all 3. And feeling those things doesn't mean it's actually true.

Asexuality is a sexual orientation. All sexual orientations are labels. I'm a straight guy, that is a label you can stick on me. Practically everything that we consider a part of our identities, whether we chose that or not, are labels. Some other labels for me could be white, bearded, average height, able bodied, et cetera. The way I think about it, if you could use it to describe somebody to somebody else, it's a label. If you are trying to figure one out for somebody else, you are labeling. A…

Okay, armchair psychologist, I'm sure she is asexual and cannot enjoy sex with anyone. Even though she said she has felt sexual attraction and arousal before.

Listening to old guys talk about their single days is honestly crazy. Like, these MFers that revolved their entire lives around women. Went bar hopping with my friend and his dad the other day, and his dad was casually saying things like that he used to spend entire weekends doing nothing but looking for places with lots of women in them to hit on them. That he'd blow off his friends and family as there not being women in their plans there as his "excuse". That said, he was a pretty good wingman…

It's almost like the entirety of TRP is lies based on stupid fabricated ideas about your identity with paper thin differences in order to sell a misogynistic worldview to lonely men. You don't need to worry about finding a woman okay with your "beta", you just need to find a woman okay with you.

IDK, but being single as you get older makes having good friends make you feel more lonely, imo.

I'm not sure you'd want to see the longer version tbh. For context I'm 25M, and I find myself attracted to older women, and so it was very much coming from a place of still thinking that grooming feeling is absolutely ridiculous. Maybe that just means I'm a vulnerable target lol. "There's no way I could be groomed! She said I was mature for my age!" sounding ass.

I had typed up a much longer comment, but then near the end I stopped and considered how I'd feel if it was a much younger woman, the feeling that even if you don't mean to, considering any relationship with a girl of a certain age would still feel like grooming. I get it now, but I do still have to say that it still seems incredibly ridiculous to have that same feeling for anybody in early 20s that you aren't like a decade and a half older than.

The thread about women not being as badly shamed as men for their sexuality felt like I was reading something from some bizarro world that never left the 1950s. Then it clicked. Women don't realize how much men's sexuality is shamed, because they think that the ways men's sexuality is shamed is deserved, and therefore doesn't count.

Okay, you understand that there is a huge difference between "this is not just" and "This should be fixed by government influence", right? Like, cheating on your partner is bad. You deserve to not be cheated on. But nobody is saying that there should be government intervention in the case of cheating. You can in fact think something is bad and unjust without thinking there needs to be a government response to it.

Because the paranoia is used as justification for what should be considered bad behavior. If you panicking every time you heard "Ala----" led you to yelling over them because you got spooked, we might want to consider if it's really justified, or if you're just being an asshole about it.

I agree with that, but I do think there is a gap between feeling jealous about somebody who didn't suffer as you did, and being disdainful about it. Like, slut shaming is bad, but I do think it's reasonable for a man to not want a relationship with a woman who would invoke that jealousy. And going back to the original point, I don't think any of that warrants it being called a complex or unrealistic expectation that men should be shamed for either.

In other words, Men shouldn't be allowed to have any "ugly duckling syndrome". Which, I'm not going to say that's entirely wrong, it's not like the ugly duckling syndrome is a good thing, but saying men just shouldn't have it also seems somewhat cruel.

Gotcha, I just had a wrong understanding of what you meant by "gold standard", I view that phrase more as meaning the standard good thing, like a "nuclear family", rather than an ideal thing that can't actually be reached. it’s hypocritical to want a virgin if you aren’t one.
