Women Are Not Paid Less Than Men

The myth that women are paid less than men is a myth perpetuated by political opportunists 50 years ago and to this day. Watch Thomas Sowell destroy that myth.

Feminism is not about Equality

This woman pretty much nails it about Feminism. Feminism focuses on the rights of one group, which is an inherently divisive thing to do.

Women Abusing Men is Okay

This video shows what I already know. People justify it when women are abusive but would never stand for a man to do anything "aggressive".

What Drives Men and Boys to Kill

Fighting and Dying for Women

There is still this expectation, no matter the woman's political orientation, that men will fight, die and go to jail for women. Sure, some women might say they don't want men to sacrifice for them, but you have to count the incidents when it is at least implicit that you should "do something". The loud guy next door is getting on her nerves. You are expected to do something about him, even if her own irritability is the real cause for your grief. It doesn't matter that a fight could ensue with the subsequent outcomes like going to jail. It is expected that you fight and die for her.

It is also expected that you should be the most tolerant human being on Earth, in terms of her behavior. Noticeably, she can't be wrong. You should understand her and if she doesn't understand you, then you have to get used to it. This is related to the man having to fight and die for her, in the sense that a man must be the strong one and sacrificing even when she's the wrong one.

Men Who Approach Women Are Considered Disgusting

It seems to be the consensus, among women, that men who approach women are disgusting. You hear the complaint all the time, interested men are considered pigs and pests. You almost never– in my experience, never– hear a man say women who approach them are disgusting.

I think this video illustrates the issue well.

Men Are Judged by Performance and Ability

It is often thought that only women are judged, usually judged by looks. The greatest insults you can give a woman is to say she is fat or ugly or that certain body parts are not up to par. However, most people don’t think there are equivalent insults for men that cause just as much damage. But there are. Men are judged by their performance and ability. This is why one of the common insults applied to men is to call one a loser. The implication is he doesn’t have a job, he can’t do anything right, he’s clumsy, etc. Men are judged by what they can or can’t do.

Don’t be fooled, it’s damaging. Men are expected to be able to do things, get it up and keep it, and if they can’t or don’t, they are considered disposable. Men must fight in wars, have jobs, provide, perform in bed, be strong, be the one who admits when he’s wrong yet should do everything right, have a cool skill. Then people have the nerve to make fun of the guy who’s a show-off. Or have the nerve to block him from doing things, when it’s expected that he “do things”. And if he wears down or any of these things he does destroys him, then he is discarded. And people have the nerve to chastise him for not going to the doctor when they also expect him to be strong, capable and to endure everything. Nonsense.

If a man can’t do these things, he is looked down upon, rejected, expected to do better. It’s even cause for the end of relationships.

Creep Vs Slut

I’ve been thinking for awhile now that if men can be called creeps, pigs, sleazy, douche bags, etc, then we can continue to slut shame women. Because, it is the same thing. Men are taught to be ashamed of doing something as innocuous as talking to a woman on the bus, or just finding her attractive. Using any excuse they can get, they begin to label a man, who has some kind of sexual desire, a creep. Man, fuck that.

I thought I was the only one who felt this way, then I ran across this thread on Reddit
In fact, there is quite a bit of discussion on the subject. I don’t agree with that Reddit poster’s characterization of the hypothetical married teacher possibly being rightfully called a slut for sleeping with her student (in his comparison to guys who really are jerks), but nonetheless the basic premise of his post was spot on; and the responses were great. I knew I couldn’t be the only one.

I think one of the best lines from the poster of that thread is this: ” The idea that a guy should already know if he is ‘worthy’ of talking to a girl before ever approaching her is ridiculous.”

I mean, like, yeah. The creep stigma makes it so that you must never approach a woman or have some kind of extrasensory power that women themselves don’t even have; and let’s not get into that double standard that a woman is allowed to have such a flaw as insensitivity, but a man isn’t allowed to make a minor faux pas. Just like the situation in which she hurts you and you have to fix it and if she hurts you, this makes her feel bad and you still have to fix. Either way, you lose. And she can’t be wrong.

I also found this video which has now become a favorite of mine on the subject; this guy nailed it.

I mean, you can’t show interest in women at all without being thought of as a sleaze; made to feel ashamed of your desires and sexuality. Sound familiar? He’s right what he says in that video, everybody’s fucked up and they shame everyone, men and women, because of their hang-ups.
How about instead of just getting rid of slut shaming and body shaming, we just get rid of shaming? Including making that genius scientist ashamed of his T-Shirt, or making another man ashamed that he likes to admire the beauty of women, or making men feel like they’re not allowed to have a desire. Really get rid of your prudish, backward, archaic, psychotic repressive ways. Go into your own mind and stop trying to control ours.

The Problem with Feminism

The Problem with Feminism

Sabrina Harman, convicted of torturing prisoners at Abu Ghraib.

This article serves as a critique of the Feminist Movement but also as a critique of political movements in general because they all tend to do the same thing; shift the problem they purport to address to another place. In the case of Feminism, a prime example of this phenomenon, it purports to address the problem of divisiveness and inequality and, instead, just changes the form of divisiveness and inequality, shifting its results to another sector of the population. In this case, it creates substandard conditions for men and boys.

It is a fact that we have spent more time medicating boys than we have educating boys. We effectively shut them down and medicate them when they show signs of having “too much energy”. A mass of boys are on “hyperactivity” medications and fewer of them are going on to college; meantime, more girls, women, are going on to college and completing their education successfully. Women and girls are given more opportunities and treated as if they need more attention, while boys and men are treated as nuisances that need to be “dealt with”. Therefore, we are seeing more boys and men in the streets, not knowing why they feel like trash, and eventually some of them act on their frustrations (mild word, here) and start blowing people away at the mall or movie theater, or just die in the gutter or a jail cell.

In the meantime, the Feminist Movement has served to create and further exacerbate this problem. It carries an ideology that characterizes males as predators, as dangerous and unworthy of any kind of care; the problems that males have are considered secondary if not non-existent. This has led to the justification of the subordination of men in all social areas, the workplace and even in the family.
Read on for a breakdown of this problem with Feminism.

Uses Divisiveness to Fight Divisiveness

The tactic of Feminism is to point out the divisiveness and inequality in the social system and counter it by advocating more divisiveness; by collecting in their group, opposed to a fictional idea of men and just to men in general, while following an ideology. Either way you slice it, if you say this is my group opposed to your group, that is division. Ideology too is division, used to differentiate yourself from others.

The Feminist outlook also serves to belittle men, degrade them, make them seem brutal and subhuman. Feminist perspective characterizes all men as predators and encourages a feeling of “keeping an eye on them” and of being constantly suspicious of everything a man does and his motives. They squash anything natural that might occur between people in the name of their half-cooked ideology.

Represses Men’s Sexuality

 Along these lines of seeing men as only predators, Feminism serves to repress men’s sexuality; men are not allowed to compliment a woman or look at a woman, and anything they do can be construed as creepy, sleazy and predatory. Therefore, men are constantly watchful, unnecessarily, in terms of what they do and say and some will give up entirely trying to get their needs and desires met; the friction and unnecessary accusations make it not worth it.

This, of course, distorts the mind and men begin to question their own natural tendencies. Women control the situation, seeking supremacy and not equality.

Men learn to revile themselves and believe their every sexual desire is loathsome and bestial. If you are a man, you are told what you are allowed to find attractive. If you like thin women in miniskirts, you are a pig, of course.

Assumes Women Don’t Control Anything

As already stated, women dominate certain sectors of society; including education. There are also laws that favor women and the justice system favors women in many instances; men are more likely to go to prison, for instance, even though women commit the same crimes. Statistics are often manipulated and wrongly stated by feminists to make men seem more dangerous and worthy of punishment. This has a lasting and horrible effect on men’s lives and truly needs to stop.

When it comes to child custody, domestic abuse and other cases of assault and abuse, women have the upper-hand. In workplaces dominated by women, women have the upper-hand. In social situations, women tend to dictate what is acceptable and impose it on others. This is old and on-going.

Does Not Acknowledge the Problems Men Have

A feminist is more likely than not to belittle the problem of a man and also belittle the man. Like most of society, feminists judge men as disposable and think a weak man is worthless. If he says he has a problem, they don’t think it’s real or important. They also tend not to acknowledge the problem even exists.

Feminism long ago fell into that trap of in group and out group; you are either for us or against us, you either kowtow or get shut down and alienated. Ideologues of Feminism spout a lot of good rhetoric about caring about people, about equality, but what they practice in day to day life is subjugation and coercion.

Fortunately, many people have become sufficiently tired of it and are calling them out. It’s about time.
