As much as I agree with everything that you're saying, the part that I worry about is attraction.
How would one attract someone if the world abandoned the idea of gender in a non-biological way? I'm to tired to think about it.
But I agree on the beard thing. People don't believe me when I tell them how jealous I am of guys for their beards. Not that I would want one as a female, but if I were a guy, you can bet I'd grow one.
I adressed the points in this video, refuted all oposing views and in desperation ur buddy comes in with a usless remark that doesn't have a thing to do with the video or my responses. In other words, certain people just want to talk for the sake of talking even when it has nothing to do with anything....trolling anyone lol.
No. He simply doesn't care about your argument. That's all. He doesn't want to get into it. There's no point.
I don't see how you can criticize him for wanting attention and trolling people by criticizing completely off-topic things when you're the one posting all these completely irrelevant comments on this video.
Come back with a real comment on this video and stop trolling my friends. Thanks.
You know, whenever someone focuses the shift of the argument into"spelling"you can tell they don't have much weight to stand on lol. Anyhow unless you come with a real argument there is nothing more to be said....rants are not permissable as legitiamte debating tools lol.
I choose not to engage in this argument mostly because it is not at all what the video is actually about. My intention, completely separate from the general debate, was to point out the hubris of your flippant offer to "educate" us via PM.
And don't talk to me about legitimate debating tools. If you want to be taken seriously, selectively indulging in txt spk doesn't help.
Well considering that it is already scientifically proven that men and women have innate biological tendencies and that our brians are wired differently as is our bodies...I think the only issue is people like u not willing to accept this reality. Sane normal people accept gender for what it is, it only becomes a problem when u make it a problem. Everyone else is confortable being either male or female, it's the way it is and nothing will change it.
lol all those comments seem like one person made five accounts all just to argue with you. but i would not be surprised in the least if there are this many longwinded misanthropes in the tube. more, probably. definitely.
i think you're right. people have a hard time letting go of the idea as their gender being the be all end all of their lives and sexuality.
Women are more then simply somaller then men, the sexual dimorphism exist in literally every region and accross all species. The upper 5% of the female elite are only comparable to the male median in terms of physical capcity....women cannot run as fast,hit as hard,take as much damage or perform the same physical feats as man by quite a long shot. Not that I think this makes women inferior, but I just think we all need to be mindfull of the physical reality of the sitauation.
i don't know, gizzard. gender is a big deal. it's who we are, just like race and ethnicity. people put a lot of emphasis on gender, race, etc in society so we're (you and i - open minded people) are forced to deal with that emphasis. you making a video about this means you think it's a big deal. i'm not saying you're wrong. this vid is awesome because you have a lot of ideas. what do you think of our rsstb series? sometimes i'm worried it can be viewed as misogynistic, but i don't really care.
I completely agree that gender (separated from sex) is a big part of who we are as people, I just disagree that we can only choose one of the two we're commonly presented with.
And I usually don't mind sexism or misogyny in humor, I sometimes find myself being sexist or homophobic for the sake of comedy.
my god, the people you attract to this video are fucked. i've always felt insecure about not liking sports. if you're a guy and you don't want to watch a bunch of dudes run around throwing a ball while a loud crowd cheers, then you're not a "real man", but at the same time, people have said it makes me unique. i don't know. whatever. i know what you're saying.
ok, here's my real comment. this is how i view gender - women are smaller than men. that doesn't mean they aren't as strong or they aren't as smart, but they're generally more afraid of men than men are afraid of women. you are who you want to be. i remember you leaving a comment saying that you've perfected the "crazy face" to keep people at bay. that's what i mean. not many guys are afraid like that. some guys are so "fearless" that they'll get into bar fights and end up losing a tooth...
i've been trying to find time to watch your videos but i haven't been able to until now. some of them are so long! i'm not saying that's a bad thing. anyway, dobogio is one of those guys/girls that gets really wordy but doesn't say anything. a lot of people are like that. i can't make heads or tails out of his/her comments and his/her grammar is atrocious. not that grammar really matters. i just posted a video about that. what's wrong with what you're saying? nothing. this comment box is small.
Now the rest of ur points are irrelevent as Red as already refuted them point by point, u also admitted that u would ignore any evidence contrary to ur belief which suggest to me ur using emotional reasoning then anything with a basis in fact or reality. If u really want to prove me wrong u know what to do...I suggest reading a book or learning something about the world outside women studies lol.
"These days we seem to hear nothing else but concerns about the underachievement of boys. I have struggled hard to try to remember the same amount of energy being expended in debate, consternation and general handwringing surrounding underachievement of girls in the past or indeed now."
When the boys are doing badly compared to the girls the educationalists do not give a damn yet the exact opposite is true if the roles are reversed.
Now for education,boys are doing worse than girls educationally. This is an indisputable fact. Something is definitely going wrong for boys. And yet here we see two lofty professionals who are supposed to be concerned with the education of our children clearly indicating that they are not really bothered about this situation at all...just look at this quote from Barry Sheerman and Chris Keates.
The strict rules of evidence used in Criminal Court proceedings don't exist in Family Court, and no other corroborating evidence such as medical reports by doctors is required.Even though allegations of domestic violence aren't under trial in a custody hearing, these pictures are nevertheless presented to make a case for "property rights to children" and are extremely effective in making a lasting impression about the violence of the father....this is what feminisnt call "equality"lol.
One woman at the public forum with Erin Pizzey in Edmonton reported that she had worked for many years as a helper in battered women's shelters but that she finally had to quit on account of the lies that were being manufactured there.She spoke of the practice of using make-up teams who would conspire to execute make-up jobs that would fake injuries on women and children, of which photographs were then taken that were incorporated into affidavits claiming abuse by men.
Allegations by women can be made with impunity often simply by making an anonymous phone call but also often with the support of personnel at women's shelters.Often as part of their divorce strategies to compose the affidavits in which such allegations surface.If allegations are found to be false they never result in an indictment let alone a conviction for perjury. The number of false allegations doesn't make it into the criminal records from which justice statistics are compiled.
Although since u don't want me to wreck u over a pm debate, I'll just isolate some of ur persistent themes and debunk them here. First off, women and men intiate around the same level of domestic abuse but it is women who are easily more porne to abuse agaisnt children. It should also be noted that domestic abuse between lesbian women is by far greater then any other group. Now comes the fun part..the false allegiations...
So let me see, you willfully ignore the statistically proven points from the opposition and dismiss diseenting views yet we are all supposed to take ur assertions at face value lol. What are you using for the basis of you're argument, what point do you have that Red or myself have no already refuted...exactly why are you so afraid to debate?
Ur right, there is sexism is in the classrom but it is sexism agasint males. The simple fact that the education system employs educating methods which disadvantage boys but favor girls is a very REAL reality. Any educator or astute researcher in the education field will tell u the samething...the boy crisis does exist and it is only getting worst.
Gender identity and gender are 2 different things, u can identify urself as whatever u wish but the physical reality still prevails. It's just anothe feminisntand PC tactic to give the illusion that gender is maliable and interchangable.
And pop culture shows men as success objects, horses asses, pigs and jack asses (donkeys), throw into garbage cans by women, beaten and humiliated, so what is your point exactly, that only women deserve advocacy and are oppressed??
No this is a hybrid society or a full blow matriarchy. You can see this in terms of men's rights especially in relation to marriage.
You have to understand that in no time in our previous history were women objectified and sexualized than they are now in our post feminist sexually liberated society. Female sexuality used to be part of her private married life and now it is public and promiscuous. Sexual availability of unmarried females is now common fact.
You say: "And only 40% of college degrees are male because 40% of college *students* are male. Its not that men arent given degrees, its that they choose to not go to college in the first place"
No see, men are not admitted to college because they are not given equal opportunity under Affirmative Action, Title IX and women only loans and scholarships. Furthermore all competitive\resource reward based learning models have been removed from schools and are now cooperative learning models.
"Women are 51% of the U.S. population and the voting public."
No they are 51% population and 54% of the voting public
"But there are 82 male Senators and only 17 female Senators. There are 44 male Governors and only 6 female Governors. 83% of House representatives are men, only 17% are women."
Again women do not run for office at ANY level of government in the proportions men do and furthermore females tend to vote for male candidates..No one is holding women back.
You say: "Kids stay with their mothers because children are drawn to their mothers."
--More than 79% of Americans feel the most significant family or social problem facing America is the physical absence of the father from the home. Research shows that the lack of a father in the home correlates closely with crime, educational and emotional problems, teenage pregnancy, and drug and alcohol abuse.
You say "Womens success and ascent in the business world is determined less by their actual ability compared to men and more by their appearance."
Men's success in the mating world is determined more by their ability and less by their appearance. Can you see how sexually selection and female preference play a role here???
You say: "and they should not have the system of support and education set up for them to combat the fact that men keep women down"
Most certainly NOT given that women keep men down by these very policies such as Affirmative Action and Title IX and earn 60% of college degrees because of them. Also can you demonstrate to me "how men keep women down" ?
I can certainly demonstrate to you how women keep men down and then demand we give them the fruits of our labor anyway...
Women do not run for political office at ANY level of government in the proportions men do and furthermore women overwhemingly vote for men, that's a fact.
"and despite being half the population, they are (except for a handful) excluded from any stereotypically male-dominated or higher echelon positions in life"
U R A PATHLOGICAL VICTIM...u identify urself as a victim and therefore u will always be one. If u chose ignore the facts and cling to ur delusions about a mythical oppression then U WILL FOREVER BE A UNDERACHIEIVING VICTIM. What u need is professional help, u need to read some books and get a clue in ur fucking head. Honestly I chanlenge u to pm me with any point, any claim and I will refute u every sngle fucking time...c'mon if ur so sure of urself I dare u to try it.
You're getting so angry, it's adorable, it's so entertaining...I really don't feel like wasting my time on you. Have fun being a blowhard and caring about the opinions of strangers on the internet. You are so fucking cool, man, you are just the definition of popular. Hope you enjoy being angry. Try not to take out your anger by hitting a woman, though. She might steal your job.
Look at urself, look to why u believe all these myths and ask urself why the fuck u have come to these conclusions. WOMEN GET HIRED ON LITTLE TO NO BASIS ON CAPCITY OR ABILITY.Feminism is the reason why there are so many naked pictures of women on the internet, Playgirl and female based pronography is not as popular because women dont find naked men as arousing as men find naked women. Why are all the male themed brothels not that popular...its because women dont see sexuality in the same sense.
If U CHOSE to ignore the statistis, the science, the biolgy, the history and the fact that there if fucking quota's that are specifically DESIGNED TO ADVANTAGE WOMEN ABOVE MEN then in all honesty u r nothing but a fucking troll. Try to explain why the education system doesnt doesn't focus on phonic reading systems or why math is more about neatness of the writing as opposed to the actual equation...the evidence is all right there in front of u.
U can post a dictionary worth of text, but at the end all it is logic fallcy. Equality in oppurtuinity is not equality in results, men and women are interchanable and u can't cite examples of men being head of industy as example of oppression. Do u realize how fucking retarded that sounds. The simple fact that u insist that the lack of a boys gone wild means some kind of sexism is just insane, there isn't a boys gone wild because male sexuality is different from female sexuality.
The sexual revoluion only accomplished one thing, it told women to usurp male sexuality and thusly it lead to the exploitation and over sexuaization we see today. The pop culture is lead by the same people who where responsible for sexual revolution and feminismt...do ur research.
(cont'd) Since males and females have been equipped for different roles in life, long before electricity was ever invented, the genders have been seperated for a long time. Modern times will hopefully abolish that - where both genders will realize their potential on both sides of the playing field. (The man as the loving single father, the woman as the lean construction worker?) Feel proud of what you have and who you are, that's all that should matter.
(cont'd) The rest should not be labelled as male or female behaviour, though physicality may contribute to some of those common gender divided behaviours. As for the rest: How you act is part of your personality, not your gender. Though sexual orientation is a factor in the way a person will act towards you. Subconsciously, or consciously do they look at you as a potential mate, or a potential friend or rival? (cont'd)
I feel gender is defined as what your body is equipped with and how it functions. Like an adam's apple, sexual organs, whether the majority of your abdominal fat collects at the sides and the back or is centered at the front, whether your body makes primarily testosterone or estrogen. (con't)
This is a really fascinating topic. Thanks for posting this video.
I'm male, I've always felt perfectly comfortable with that, but as I've become more aware of gender issues, the Ts, Qs, Is, etc. in the community, I have been noticing all the times I'm asked about my gender, particularly online, and how it's always just two choices. And when possible, I've often chosen to leave those fields blank, because you're absolutely right: it doesn't matter at all.
U can't throw a men and women into a boxing ring and expect that it will be a fair fight, U can't legislate the education system and workforce with bias misandric policies and then cry" sexism" because more men then women decide to work as construction workers. If u really think gender isn't so important, then why no use a urinal when u take a piss or why not just go topless when it's a hot day. How about u not have a menstral cycle or how about u try to produce sperm, try it lol.
I think Gislina was trying to talk about gender, and not sex, as you are. People's gender identity is determined by hormones received genetically. Most biological males inherit hormones of male self-identification, and same for bio-females and female hormones. Some people receive genes mentally and emotionally closer to the sex other than their physical bodies. That is the actual meaning and cause of gender identity, or disparate gender self-identification.
Now Red has pretty much debunked a lot of this nonsense but I just wanted to add something. Ur proclaimation that gender is rather a ideal as opposed to anything biological is just a very sad statment IMO, Being male and female matters because men and women are governed by different bodies of hormones that effect how they feel,think and even precieve the world. U cannot make men and women interchangable, u can never deny that gender goes deep then just a penis or vagina.
Ur facts and data are all distortions to fit in this sensless conspiracy theory from feminisnt that women have been oppressed when infact the exact opposite is true. U don't even realize how easily refutable u r, Im not saying this to be mean spiriting but u honestly don't have a clue. The simple fact that u think the education system is somehow bias agaisn women just shows how out of touch u really r.....if u ever want to be educated feel free to pm me friend.
How f**king dare you. Why should anyone come to you for "education" when you don't even bother to spell your arguments correctly? It boggles my mind that you have no problem typing long words like "conspiracy" and "refutable", and yet you feel the need to abbreviate three-letter words.
You have a full keyboard - USE IT! To do otherwise is just plain lazy.
Furthermore, you are a supremely arrogant individual. The goal here is civil discourse, not a lecture.
U don't mention how women work less hours on average and chose occupations that are typically more" people" orientated which will obviously pay less. U don't mention how industries aim for specific quota's that's deliberate intention is to employ women regardless of capcity or ability at the expense of men.The facts and evidence all support that we live in a misandric/matriachy marxist state.
Andrew: In all the comments u have made, not a single 1 has any real basis in fact or reality. U assume that equality in rights should equal equality in results, u neglect to account for the innate biological motivations between men and women and that the dimorphic disparity is not only a reality in the physical realm but in mental faculties as well. U forgot to mention things such as tittle Xi or affirmative action which are direct misandric policies that favor women.
You can easily relate to males on a deeper level, without presenting yourself as male. Hang around the people that you feel comfortable around, but dont be fake. There are plenty of tomboys like you that you could also relate to.
If anything, just ignore gender roles. Only fools try to pass themselves off as something that they are not.
These sort of comments would sound bizarre if they werent so ingrained.
When you are surrounded by tall people, do you feel an element of shortness? Do you then start to play the role of a short person?
It is one thing to feel different by comparison, and another to switch "roles".
No one is forcing you to play a useless role, or to fit any of the collective expectations of a group, regardless of the type of difference that you feel.
If you really want to know why people are so "obsessed" with what gender you are, it is not hard to understand.
People want to know if they can mate with you for one thing. Then there is the fact that males only compete with other males, and females only compete with other females. We crave information and we are in the habbit of identifying sex.
Male or Female is much more than just a role, or a social construct. It is not a matter of frivolous fashion statements, desires, or status symbols.
While it is true that both in our basic biological traits, and agian in our cultures, we have developed methods of signifying our biological reproductive functions and compatibility to others, but there is always a deep meaning and significance behind these signals, even when they seem arbitrary or shallow to an outsider.
Your sex is and should be profoundly important to others, and if you present yourself as the opposite sex, that is tantamount to lying.
I think we get caught up in the gender polarization because we are so insecure as a culture about sexuality. I'm not sure if it comes from the religious tradition of repressed sexuality or maybe we just have a existential struggle with the fact that we are only here to support reproduction.
In any case, I think we will be able to think about sexuality in more abstract ways as we progress intellectually and spiritually. But progress can be slow & painful.
I believe perhaps what you are referring to is called gender queer or the feminist ideal of androgynous, genderless and equal sentient beings with equally genderless sexual orientation whom by very definition are predicated by Marxist theory of a classless society.
Besides everyone knows that society finds the needs of women and girls more important.
Men do not have hundreds of men's studies departments, research institutes, policy centers, and lobby groups working tirelessly to promote their gender as a political cause."
Jesus, I knew you were a fuck, subscribing just waiting for me to make another video about feminism so you could write the same things over and over again, but exploiting my personal gender issues to spout your ridiculous claims is pretty fucking low.
I understand that there are some advantages that women have, but there are many more advantages that men have.
The draft? Really? You do realize that the draft is a relic of an archaic society where women were regarded as incapable anyway, right?
I had no idea, NO fucking idea, that women had it so easy.
Here I thought it was a man's world filled with the exploitation, subjugation and objectification of women, a world where little girls are encouraged to become sluts, professional women receive 75% of the money men do for the same job, and 9 out of every 10 cases of sexual assault are against female victims.
"I thought it was a man's world filled with the exploitation, subjugation and objectification of women, a world where little girls are encouraged to become sluts"
Actually men and especially patriarchal societies do not promote or espouse sluts.
"professional women receive 75% of the money men do for the same job."
Actually the Raw Wage Gap is a measurement of the disparity in earnings of all men and women in the workforce and not "the same job"
"9 out of every 10 cases of sexual assault are against female victims."
96% of all workplace deaths are males. 85% of the homeless are male
80% of suicides are male
98% of combat deaths are male
40% of college degrees are male
So what is your point, that men should not have equal rights and protections under law? Men should not have advocacy and that the only problems that matter are women's problems? That men are responsible for everyones welfare and women are not?
A measurement of disparity in the workplace? The only way that would mean society isn't unfair to women would be if less than half of all the job positions of men weren't worked by any women whatsoever. But that's not true. Most job positions held by men, certainly more than half at least, are held by at least one woman, There is at least one woman doctor, one woman lawyer, one woman mechanic, one woman soldier. Both genders work the same jobs.
If one gender is paid less in general, it doesn't mean most women are working lower-paying jobs, it means most women are paid less than men for the same job.
There is no way you can say a patriarchal society (and you admitted, this is a patriarchal society) does not encourage promiscuity. Look at the way women are portrayed in movies and television, look at the way women act in music videos and commercials.
No this is a hybrid society or a full blow matriarchy. You can see this in terms of men's rights especially in relation to marriage.
You have to understand that in no time in our previous history were women objectified and sexualized than they are now in our post feminist sexually liberated society. Female sexuality used to be part of her private married life and now it is public and promiscuous. Sexual availability of unmarried females is now common fact.
Pop culture shows women as sex objects, something whose brain is pointless and is just there to sell products on TV and masturbate to. Women are encouraged by pop culture to value their appearance and sex appeal over their mind and abilities. Theres no statistic to back that up, its an incessant and perpetual social trend that cant be categorized, it can only be observed. If you dont think women are objectified and sexualized in pop culture and society then you are delusional. Open a window.
You say: "Pop culture shows women as sex objects" And pop culture shows men as success objects, horses asses, pigs and jack asses (donkeys), throw into garbage cans by women, beaten and humiliated, so what is your point exactly, that only women deserve advocacy and are oppressed??
How is it better that womens sexuality is exploited rather than repressed? Are you saying exploitation is *good* just because its *different* than another bad thing? One bad thing has been replaced with another. I mean, you actually admitted that in this post-feminist world, as you put it, women are objectified and exploited. Is this a good thing? Are you saying these are not horrible things?
The sexual revolution and feminist movement encouraged women to accept and embrace their sexuality, but pop culture exploited it immediately after. Read Ariel Levys Female Chauvinist Pigs, see how women have been manipulated into believing that turning themselves into sluts is not just a good thing, but an empowering thing.
There's no Boys Gone Wild. Playboy has always been far more popular than Playgirl. Boys aren't encouraged to wear revealing clothing and tons of make up and to kiss other boys at parties. Kids are brought up with the idea that it doesnt matter what a boy looks like as long as hes tough and manly because all girls love that, and girls are brought up with the idea that they have to be pretty sexy fun-loving available and not so intelligent. Trust me, I know that's the kind of girl most boys like
Men's success in the mating world is determined more by their ability and less by their appearance. Can you see how sexually selection and female preference play a role here???
Sorting through that grammatical nightmare, it seems that youre saying men are taught that girls judge them by the content of their character, while guys judge girls by their physical attractiveness.
Unless you want your girlfriend (if you have one) dumping you tomorrow for being too ugly, I think youd agree that this is a bad thing. And I say girlfriend and not wife because obviously you could never trust that a woman might want to marry you for a reason other than stealing your kids and money.
And pop culture sometimes portrays men as jackasses to undo the damage of a century of overly positive portrayals of men and negative, submissive or exploitative portrayals of women. Its the same reason there are all these commercials portraying black people in fortunate situations and a white guy as the naïve dolt. Yeah, of course there are no doubt tons of real-life examples where a black guy happens to be less fortunate or intelligent than a white guy.
But people have been thinking thats the only way it is in the real world for so long, that if we dont start reversing the trend directly, that idea will persist. Same with women. Women have always been portrayed as Marilyn Monroes and Grace Kellys and Vivien Leighs, attractive and brainless pairs of breasts, helpless, defenseless, dependent on men.
And it still is. Who do little girls have to look up to in popular culture? A bunch of partying image-obsessed sexualized moronic whores. Lindsey Lohan, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears. Rihanna. Shakira. Fergie. Sex symbols. Even Miley Cyrus was pole-dancing at the Teen Choice Awards. Watch the average teen comedy, slasher flick, watch the average TV commercial, see the guy buying the product and getting the attractive girl.
Thats what women are made to feel like, rewards for men, objects of desire, slaves to material wealth and the need for a man. Boys have every single U.S. president to look up to. Girls have the Disney princesses—each of whom only find happiness after ending up with a man.
Affirmative Action might seem unfair in theory, but in practice it doesnt really do enough. Some (keyword SOME) A.A. people are trying to give women an advantage because men dont hire women. Even with all the A.A. peoples work, they dont hire women. And can you give me one example of a U.S. federal law that actually gives women an advantage in workforce representation, instead of just preventing discrimination and declaring equality?
All this complaining about Affirmative Action, fair or unfair its not working. Women are only 15% of the board positions in the top companies of the United States, and only 11% of executive positions. The 2008 Global Gender Gap Report from the World Economic Forum gives America an equality score of only 72%. The amount of men in the workforce surpasses the amount of women by 14%. The wage equality ratio of women to men is only 69%, and the average income earned by women is 63% compared to men.
The ratio of female politicians and business managers to men is 72%. And dont give me this mens rights guilt trip pity party. Men are equal to women in literacy and middle/high school enrollment. Maybe the reason more women go to college is because they know they *need* to go to college to succeed more than men do. Men can just finish high school and live their lives and get a job. Women who dont go to college cant get good jobs. Hell, even most women who go to college cant get good jobs.
And youre right. Women are 54% of the voting public. Dont you think if there were truly political equality in elected office, a woman would have been elected president by a 3% majority at least once since 1920? Just once? Dont you think there would be more women Senators and Governors and Representatives?
This is not a matriarchy, you self-pitying mens rights guys only think that because youre subconsciously aware of the fact that you are sexist assholes and you feel guilty about living in and supporting a patriarchy. You feel guilty, so you assume the women are secretly in power. The women who you see as so weak and defenseless, yet still so conniving and man-hating. Women who men rape and beat and put on billboards in bikinis and photograph naked for every newsstand patron in America to see.
Women do not keep men down. Men are our presidents. Men are our bosses. Our lawyers. Our principles. Our soldiers. Whos your member of congress: boy or girl? What gender is your boss? Name one political or economic field or domain run (keyword RUN) mostly by women. Men are our everything, and sometimes not even our fathers. People are so concerned about absent fathers because its always the man skipping out on the woman, leaving women to raise kids by themselves.
84% of single parents are mothers. Its simple. Women care about kids. Men dont. Watch 16 and Pregnant some time, see what its like for girls whose boyfriends dont care about their kid. Men dont have that problem. Watch 16 and Pregnant. Watch a few music videos and TV commercials. Really. Get back to me and tell me honestly you think women have equality. To suggest that women have any advantage over men is as ridiculous to me as the idea of a woman president is to you.
So, no matter how delusional you are, no matter how many statistics you spout, you will not convince me, and you will not convince any women, that they have the advantage. Youre on the computer right now. Try looking up naked pictures of women, and wonder why theres so many.
And if you have a girlfriend, go to her, look her in the eye, and ask yourself why you think (keyword THINK) she and all her kind hate men and truly enjoy their state of advancement in society. Ask yourself, out of you and your girlfriend, whos more likely to get raped, whos more likely to get passed up for a promotion if they dont wear makeup, whos more likely to become President.
And if you dont have a girlfriend, maybe you should wonder why.
Most workplace deaths are male because the most dangerous jobs are mostly worked by men. Society is discouraging towards women who want to pursue dangerous jobs because theyre regarded as tough and thus men only jobs. Same with joining the army.
Most suicides are male, but most suicide *attempts* and acts of self-harm are female. This just means men choose more violent methods of suicide, whereas women choose subtler and less bluntly effective methods. They still want to do it more.
And only 40% of college degrees are male because 40% of college *students* are male. Its not that men arent given degrees, its that they choose to not go to college in the first place. So 40% of births in a America are to single women, 70% of divorces are initiated by women, and 90% of divorce cases go to the women. That just means 2 in 5 fathers skip out on the mother, most bad marriages need a divorce because the man is a bad husband, and most courts recognize that.
You say: "And only 40% of college degrees are male because 40% of college *students* are male. Its not that men arent given degrees, its that they choose to not go to college in the first place"
No see, men are not admitted to college because they are not given equal opportunity under Affirmative Action, Title IX and women only loans and scholarships. Furthermore all competitive\resource reward based learning models have been removed from schools and are now cooperative learning models.
My father initiated his divorce to my mother, man. It happens. Kids stay with their mothers because children are drawn to their mothers. Thats how people work, thats how nature works. Im guessing you were the one in ten that stayed with his father.
Women are 51% of the U.S. population and the voting public. But there are 82 male Senators and only 17 female Senators. There are 44 male Governors and only 6 female Governors. 83% of House representatives are men, only 17% are women.
"Women are 51% of the U.S. population and the voting public."
No they are 51% population and 54% of the voting public
"But there are 82 male Senators and only 17 female Senators. There are 44 male Governors and only 6 female Governors. 83% of House representatives are men, only 17% are women."
Again women do not run for office at ANY level of government in the proportions men do and furthermore females tend to vote for male candidates..No one is holding women back.
You say: "Kids stay with their mothers because children are drawn to their mothers."
--More than 79% of Americans feel the most significant family or social problem facing America is the physical absence of the father from the home. Research shows that the lack of a father in the home correlates closely with crime, educational and emotional problems, teenage pregnancy, and drug and alcohol abuse.
There have been no female presidents. Women are attacked and killed by spouses and partners more than men. Girls are paid less attention in men and are discouraged from taking higher-lever or more intellectual subjects in university—another reason women receive lots of degrees. Theyre forced into the easier subjects by universities that stereotype and subjugate them.
Womens success and ascent in the business world is determined less by their actual ability compared to men and more by their appearance. 61% of male CEOs are overweight, more than the 40% of males in general. This would suggest being overweight helps you become a CEO. Until you learn only 22% of female CEOs are overweight. That only makes sense if you accept that sexism against women exists and women have it bad off in America.
You say "Womens success and ascent in the business world is determined less by their actual ability compared to men and more by their appearance."
Men's success in the mating world is determined more by their ability and less by their appearance. Can you see how sexually selection and female preference play a role here???
What you're saying is that women should be disliked for any way they're more successful or rational en masse than men, and they should not have the system of support and education set up for them to combat the fact that men keep women down, they have always kept women down, and they will always keep women down.
You say: "and they should not have the system of support and education set up for them to combat the fact that men keep women down" Most certainly NOT given that women keep men down by these very policies such as Affirmative Action and Title IX and earn 60% of college degrees because of them. Also can you demonstrate to me "how men keep women down" ?
I can certainly demonstrate to you how women keep men down and then demand we give them the fruits of our labor anyway...
Women are kept out of the business world, they are kept out of politics, and despite being half the population, they are (except for a handful) excluded from any stereotypically male-dominated or higher echelon positions in life. They are laughed at, scoffed at, and pushed out of the way. Trust us, sir, this is not a woman's world. Everyone in western society does not think like us. They think like you. And if they didnt, we would not be so upset.
Women do not run for political office at ANY level of government in the proportions men do and furthermore women overwhemingly vote for men, that's a fact.
"and despite being half the population, they are (except for a handful) excluded from any stereotypically male-dominated or higher echelon positions in life"
But BOY was I wrong! Thanks, Red0660, I have seen the light. Good lordy, I'm found. I sure do hate my penis now.
All that respect and money and opportunities I'll get sure don't feel worth it if I can't have reproduction rights. I mean, obviously as a man I'll never reproduce, but still, damn those lucky women for having those rights.
Ohhh did I mention women only scholarships and loans. ALL THE RIGHTS in conception, reproduction, parental and custody rights to children.
Women acquire 60% of college degrees.
Clearly at best men are simply an accessory that is disposable to the "independent" woman but still required to provide and protect her when it is convenient for her. Women initiate 70% of all divorce and 40% of all births in the U.S. are to single women. 90% of children loose their father in divorce.
Hmmm I wish I was female.. Women have Affirmative Action, Title IX and they just dedicated an entire Council on Women and Girls and their needs. They also diverted the entire stimulus package to women and girls. Google and READ "NO COUNTRY FOR BURLY MEN" published in the Weekly Standard. Lets see women have all the rights and divorce and men are required to support women and single mothers in or OUT of marriage. No mil. draft for women. They have 7 offices of women's health and not one for men.
"I don't understand why I would have to give up being female in order to be male."
Trust me, that makes sense. Like, that's beautiful, that's so exactly how I feel, so perfectly put. That is probably one of the most sensible and downright wisest things I've ever heard and I will very probably repeat that to anyone who asks about my gender identity and remember that idea for the rest of my life.
I feel more woman than I do man, but I still would get a gender reassignment. There is something I like about being a gay guy and not a straight girl. And it's not that I like to be different or anything, but I think the emotion doesn't have any english words for it.
As much as I agree with everything that you're saying, the part that I worry about is attraction.
How would one attract someone if the world abandoned the idea of gender in a non-biological way? I'm to tired to think about it.
But I agree on the beard thing. People don't believe me when I tell them how jealous I am of guys for their beards. Not that I would want one as a female, but if I were a guy, you can bet I'd grow one.

One woman at the public forum with Erin Pizzey in Edmonton reported that she had worked for many years as a helper in battered women's shelters but that she finally had to quit on account of the lies that were being manufactured there.She spoke of the practice of using make-up teams who would conspire to execute make-up jobs that would fake injuries on women and children, of which photographs were then taken that were incorporated into affidavits claiming abuse by men.
Dobogio 2 years ago 2
Allegations by women can be made with impunity often simply by making an anonymous phone call but also often with the support of personnel at women's shelters.Often as part of their divorce strategies to compose the affidavits in which such allegations surface.If allegations are found to be false they never result in an indictment let alone a conviction for perjury. The number of false allegations doesn't make it into the criminal records from which justice statistics are compiled.

Although since u don't want me to wreck u over a pm debate, I'll just isolate some of ur persistent themes and debunk them here.

It should also be noted that domestic abuse between lesbian women is by far greater then any other group. Now comes the fun part..the false allegiations...

No this is a hybrid society or a full blow matriarchy. You can see this in terms of men's rights especially in relation to marriage.

(cont'd) Since males and females have been equipped for different roles in life, long before electricity was ever invented, the genders have been seperated for a long time. Modern times will hopefully abolish that - where both genders will realize their potential on both sides of the playing field.

(cont'd) The rest should not be labelled as male or female behaviour, though physicality may contribute to some of those common gender divided behaviours. As for the rest: How you act is part of your personality, not your gender. Though sexual orientation is a factor in the way a person will act towards you. Subconsciously, or consciously do they look at you as a potential mate, or a potential friend or rival? (cont'd)

I think Gislina was trying to talk about gender, and not sex, as you are. People's gender identity is determined by hormones received genetically. Most biological males inherit hormones of male self-identification, and same for bio-females and female hormones. Some people receive genes mentally and emotionally closer to the sex other than their physical bodies. That is the actual meaning and cause of gender identity, or disparate gender self-identification.

Now Red has pretty much debunked a lot of this nonsense but I just wanted to add something. Ur proclaimation that gender is rather a ideal as opposed to anything biological is just a very sad statment IMO, Being male and female matters because men and women are governed by different bodies of hormones that effect how they feel,think and even precieve the world.

These sort of comments would sound bizarre if they werent so ingrained.
When you are surrounded by tall people, do you feel an element of shortness? Do you then start to play the role of a short person?
It is one thing to feel different by comparison, and another to switch "roles".
No one is forcing you to play a useless role, or to fit any of the collective expectations of a group, regardless of the type of difference that you feel.
St37One 2 years ago
If you really want to know why people are so "obsessed" with what gender you are, it is not hard to understand.
People want to know if they can mate with you for one thing. Then there is the fact that males only compete with other males, and females only compete with other females. We crave information and we are in the habbit of identifying sex.
Male or Female is much more than just a role, or a social construct. It is not a matter of frivolous fashion statements, desires, or status symbols.

While it is true that both in our basic biological traits, and agian in our cultures, we have developed methods of signifying our biological reproductive functions and compatibility to others, but there is always a deep meaning and significance behind these signals, even when they seem arbitrary or shallow to an outsider.
Your sex is and should be profoundly important to others, and if you present yourself as the opposite sex, that is tantamount to lying.

Brave video. I support your thoughts.
I think we get caught up in the gender polarization because we are so insecure as a culture about sexuality. I'm not sure if it comes from the religious tradition of repressed sexuality or maybe we just have a existential struggle with the fact that we are only here to support reproduction.
In any case, I think we will be able to think about sexuality in more abstract ways as we progress intellectually and spiritually. But progress can be slow & painful.

A measurement of disparity in the workplace? The only way that would mean society isn't unfair to women would be if less than half of all the job positions of men weren't worked by any women whatsoever. But that's not true. Most job positions held by men, certainly more than half at least, are held by at least one woman, There is at least one woman doctor, one woman lawyer, one woman mechanic, one woman soldier. Both genders work the same jobs.

If one gender is paid less in general, it doesn't mean most women are working lower-paying jobs, it means most women are paid less than men for the same job.
There is no way you can say a patriarchal society (and you admitted, this is a patriarchal society) does not encourage promiscuity. Look at the way women are portrayed in movies and television, look at the way women act in music videos and commercials.

No this is a hybrid society or a full blow matriarchy. You can see this in terms of men's rights especially in relation to marriage.
You have to understand that in no time in our previous history were women objectified and sexualized than they are now in our post feminist sexually liberated society. Female sexuality used to be part of her private married life and now it is public and promiscuous. Sexual availability of unmarried females is now common fact.

Pop culture shows women as sex objects, something whose brain is pointless and is just there to sell products on TV and masturbate to. Women are encouraged by pop culture to value their appearance and sex appeal over their mind and abilities. Theres no statistic to back that up, its an incessant and perpetual social trend that cant be categorized, it can only be observed. If you dont think women are objectified and sexualized in pop culture and society then you are delusional. Open a window.

You say: "Pop culture shows women as sex objects" And pop culture shows men as success objects, horses asses, pigs and jack asses (donkeys), throw into garbage cans by women, beaten and humiliated, so what is your point exactly, that only women deserve advocacy and are oppressed??

How is it better that womens sexuality is exploited rather than repressed? Are you saying exploitation is *good* just because its *different* than another bad thing? One bad thing has been replaced with another. I mean, you actually admitted that in this post-feminist world, as you put it, women are objectified and exploited. Is this a good thing? Are you saying these are not horrible things?

The sexual revolution and feminist movement encouraged women to accept and embrace their sexuality, but pop culture exploited it immediately after. Read Ariel Levys Female Chauvinist Pigs, see how women have been manipulated into believing that turning themselves into sluts is not just a good thing, but an empowering thing.

There's no Boys Gone Wild. Playboy has always been far more popular than Playgirl. Boys aren't encouraged to wear revealing clothing and tons of make up and to kiss other boys at parties. Kids are brought up with the idea that it doesnt matter what a boy looks like as long as hes tough and manly because all girls love that, and girls are brought up with the idea that they have to be pretty sexy fun-loving available and not so intelligent. Trust me, I know that's the kind of girl most boys like

Men's success in the mating world is determined more by their ability and less by their appearance. Can you see how sexually selection and female preference play a role here???
Sorting through that grammatical nightmare, it seems that youre saying men are taught that girls judge them by the content of their character, while guys judge girls by their physical attractiveness.

Unless you want your girlfriend (if you have one) dumping you tomorrow for being too ugly, I think youd agree that this is a bad thing. And I say girlfriend and not wife because obviously you could never trust that a woman might want to marry you for a reason other than stealing your kids and money.

And pop culture sometimes portrays men as jackasses to undo the damage of a century of overly positive portrayals of men and negative, submissive or exploitative portrayals of women. Its the same reason there are all these commercials portraying black people in fortunate situations and a white guy as the naïve dolt. Yeah, of course there are no doubt tons of real-life examples where a black guy happens to be less fortunate or intelligent than a white guy.

But people have been thinking thats the only way it is in the real world for so long, that if we dont start reversing the trend directly, that idea will persist. Same with women. Women have always been portrayed as Marilyn Monroes and Grace Kellys and Vivien Leighs, attractive and brainless pairs of breasts, helpless, defenseless, dependent on men.

And it still is. Who do little girls have to look up to in popular culture? A bunch of partying image-obsessed sexualized moronic whores. Lindsey Lohan, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears. Rihanna.

Watch the average teen comedy, slasher flick, watch the average TV commercial, see the guy buying the product and getting the attractive girl.

Thats what women are made to feel like, rewards for men, objects of desire, slaves to material wealth and the need for a man. Boys have every single U.S. president to look up to. Girls have the Disney princesses—each of whom only find happiness after ending up with a man.

Affirmative Action might seem unfair in theory, but in practice it doesnt really do enough. Some (keyword SOME) A.A. people are trying to give women an advantage because men dont hire women. Even with all the A.A. peoples work, they dont hire women. And can you give me one example of a U.S. federal law that actually gives women an advantage in workforce representation, instead of just preventing discrimination and declaring equality?
VolatileChemical 2 years ago
All this complaining about Affirmative Action, fair or unfair its not working. Women are only 15% of the board positions in the top companies of the United States, and only 11% of executive positions. The 2008 Global Gender Gap Report from the World Economic Forum gives America an equality score of only 72%. The amount of men in the workforce surpasses the amount of women by 14%. The wage equality ratio of women to men is only 69%, and the average income earned by women is 63% compared to men.
VolatileChemical 2 years ago
The ratio of female politicians and business managers to men is 72%. And dont give me this mens rights guilt trip pity party. Men are equal to women in literacy and middle/high school enrollment. Maybe the reason more women go to college is because they know they *need* to go to college to succeed more than men do. Men can just finish high school and live their lives and get a job. Women who dont go to college cant get good jobs. Hell, even most women who go to college cant get good jobs.

And youre right. Women are 54% of the voting public. Dont you think if there were truly political equality in elected office, a woman would have been elected president by a 3% majority at least once since 1920? Just once? Dont you think there would be more women Senators and Governors and Representatives?

This is not a matriarchy, you self-pitying mens rights guys only think that because youre subconsciously aware of the fact that you are sexist assholes and you feel guilty about living in and supporting a patriarchy. You feel guilty, so you assume the women are secretly in power. The women who you see as so weak and defenseless, yet still so conniving and man-hating. Women who men rape and beat and put on billboards in bikinis and photograph naked for every newsstand patron in America to see.

Women do not keep men down. Men are our presidents. Men are our bosses. Our lawyers. Our principles. Our soldiers. Whos your member of congress: boy or girl? What gender is your boss? Name one political or economic field or domain run (keyword RUN) mostly by women. Men are our everything, and sometimes not even our fathers. People are so concerned about absent fathers because its always the man skipping out on the woman, leaving women to raise kids by themselves.

84% of single parents are mothers. Its simple. Women care about kids. Men dont. Watch 16 and Pregnant some time, see what its like for girls whose boyfriends dont care about their kid. Men dont have that problem. Watch 16 and Pregnant. Watch a few music videos and TV commercials. Really. Get back to me and tell me honestly you think women have equality. To suggest that women have any advantage over men is as ridiculous to me as the idea of a woman president is to you.

Most workplace deaths are male because the most dangerous jobs are mostly worked by men. Society is discouraging towards women who want to pursue dangerous jobs because theyre regarded as tough and thus men only jobs. Same with joining the army.
Most suicides are male, but most suicide *attempts* and acts of self-harm are female. This just means men choose more violent methods of suicide, whereas women choose subtler and less bluntly effective methods. They still want to do it more.

And only 40% of college degrees are male because 40% of college *students* are male. Its not that men arent given degrees, its that they choose to not go to college in the first place. So 40% of births in a America are to single women, 70% of divorces are initiated by women, and 90% of divorce cases go to the women. That just means 2 in 5 fathers skip out on the mother, most bad marriages need a divorce because the man is a bad husband, and most courts recognize that.

No see, men are not admitted to college because they are not given equal opportunity under Affirmative Action, Title IX and women only loans and scholarships. Furthermore all competitive\resource reward based learning models have been removed from schools and are now cooperative learning models.

Women are 51% of the U.S. population and the voting public. But there are 82 male Senators and only 17 female Senators. There are 44 male Governors and only 6 female Governors. 83% of House representatives are men, only 17% are women.

There have been no female presidents. Women are attacked and killed by spouses and partners more than men. Girls are paid less attention in men and are discouraged from taking higher-lever or more intellectual subjects in university—another reason women receive lots of degrees. Theyre forced into the easier subjects by universities that stereotype and subjugate them.

Womens success and ascent in the business world is determined less by their actual ability compared to men and more by their appearance. 61% of male CEOs are overweight, more than the 40% of males in general. This would suggest being overweight helps you become a CEO. Until you learn only 22% of female CEOs are overweight. That only makes sense if you accept that sexism against women exists and women have it bad off in America.

What you're saying is that women should be disliked for any way they're more successful or rational en masse than men, and they should not have the system of support and education set up for them to combat the fact that men keep women down, they have always kept women down, and they will always keep women down.

Also can you demonstrate to me "how men keep women down" ?

Women are kept out of the business world, they are kept out of politics, and despite being half the population, they are (except for a handful) excluded from any stereotypically male-dominated or higher echelon positions in life. They are laughed at, scoffed at, and pushed out of the way. Trust us, sir, this is not a woman's world. Everyone in western society does not think like us. They think like you.

Hmmm I wish I was female.. Women have Affirmative Action, Title IX and they just dedicated an entire Council on Women and Girls and their needs. They also diverted the entire stimulus package to women and girls. Google and READ "NO COUNTRY FOR BURLY MEN" published in the Weekly Standard. Lets see women have all the rights and divorce and men are required to support women and single mothers in or OUT of marriage. No mil. draft for women. They have 7 offices of women's health and not one for men.
