I love your videos. My mother abused my sister and I as children, and I watched her abuse my father. That cast iron frying pan really isn't funny when you see what it can do. My mom was shocked and appalled when I told her I wasn't going to marry, or have children, and when I told her I was cutting her out of my life as well. She refused to see the facts even when I sat and explained them to her 9 years ago. I say feminists are great at excuses for their behavior
@AcidReflux27 , you are condemning the entire lot for the actions of a few ( maybe a bit more than few ). There are good women out there. If the women you currently know are not worth it then simply FOCUS HARD on your CAREER. Who knows, at some point in the future, the right one might come along and you can settle down with her. :-) All the Best!!!!
@silvermirror03 I'm not saying I hate women. In fact I love women. I will just never marry one, or have a child with one. If I do find a good women, I will enter a committed relationship with her, much as gays. Many woman are single mothers anyway, so I really don't need to have a child. Then she doesn't have the option of trying to divorce me. I am successful and many women run away when I tell them this is the lifestyle I choose. because they cant take half my stuff.
One time, my mother was in a bad relationship with a man named Bob, and she went to a womens shelter for a time. We (and my stepfather) went to where she was to talk with her,
and when we were done talking to her we took her back to the shelter and I walked with her up to the shelter (I've missed her because she was in that shelter). As we drove off she called us telling us that she had been kicked out because-
-I, her 19 year old son, came onto the property. Apparently no men are allowed to set foot onto the property, no matter who they are, even if its her own son. My mother ended up being forced back into the relationship.
I think you mentioned that males experience domestic violence directed at them as frequently as women. I'm not really convinced that the rate is the same. Have the levels always been equal or is this occuring only in the last few decades or since the start of third wave?? Do govt statistics on violence support this opinion? I am asian and have not encountered any violence from women ( or heard/ witnessed any) to date ( i'm 32). Is this a trend predominantly among the caucasian populace??
@silvermirror03 Have the figures always been the same? They have since Erin Pizzey opened the world's first domestic violence shelter in the UK in 1971, and found 60 of her first hundred women were as violent as, or more violent than, the men they were leaving.
A woman beating her husband with a skillet has been so common for so long, it was a well-worn comic trope even in Victorian times, and I'm sure it crosses cultures. (cont)
@girlwriteswhat You would not have seen it because even in the west and even now, men face social abandonment and shunning *at best*, ridicule at worst, when they're "found out". I would expect in a culture with a strong culture of patriarchal norms and a "face saving" sense of honor, the social stigma would be much worse than even here.
Some fun facts:
-women hit first 50-70% of the time
-women are more likely to scratch, bite, attack genitals, use weapons
@girlwriteswhat. Thank you for the factual response. I moved to the US about a year back and am now based here. I guess i need to watch out for that frying pan ;-). On another note - women are now an integral part of the workforce - both govt and private sector. Outsourcing and govt austerity programs will impact them negatively. I wonder how the feminist movement is going to respond. These two factors might amplify the clash between feminists and its opponents. What do you think?
@silvermirror03 One feminist recently characterized the US government's refusal to increase the deficit as "an attack on women". So I really don't think feminists will take well to any belt-tightening.
As for outsourcing, as long as the job losses only really affect men (manufacturing, tech, etc), I don't think they'll be up in arms over it.
@girlwriteswhat I think it is very useful indeed that you have provided these statistics. However, I know what would happen if a man were to present these to somebody who objected. The man would be asked for references (such as hardvard refs or equivalent) to back it up. Without these, they would be discarded as fictional or misguided. Can you provide such proof to avoid this happening? I'm sure a lot of readers would appreciate it.
@girlwriteswhat It's true what you say about the old imagery of women abusing men with skillets, rolling bins, etc. In a women's studies class I took the professor thought it would be a lark to put a photo in the syllabus of an old statue of two figures, a female who's hitting the male with a rolling bin. It goes back centuries. There's also the 1963 review of comic strips, which revealed much more cases of wives in the cartoons being more violent towards their husbands.
@silvermirror03 Some food for thought out there - what would you consider violence from women? A woman hitting a man is not always acknowledged as violence. A video on Youtube called "Reaction To Women Abusing Men In Public" (by Clotheslinemedia) shows a pretty astonishing example of how the same behaviour can be perceived totally different ways.
@Railstarfish , i would consider it as violence if it is above a certain level of ferocity. A quick thump on the back from your gf is not an attack, especially if you were eyeing some pretty dame. Swinging a frying pan would definately qualify as violence.
On the video link above, I left this comment to Olga Kay
:
Why have you shown men dying in graphic bleeding violence during a computer game on your youtube video which you clearly target at an audience to include kid girls? There are age restrictions on such media for a reason, you know. Yet you have taken it upon yourself to veto that. I'd like to know if some guys on youtube could perhaps target towards boys, videos showing computer games where women get hacked to pieces?
@TableWolfMusic Just watched the clip, which is from the game "Dead Island". While you might be right about the gore not being suitable for children, you're not right about there being sexism in the depicted violence. Dead Island has both male and female zombies to kill, in equal numbers, and male and female characters to play and kill them as. There's no gendering of the murder in that particular game.
@KalamityKrisAnimates I never said Dead-Island was sexist. But it's somehow acceptable the footage was of killing men? Think about that as per girlwriteswhat's video. So my point is, considering Olga's show is for girls, there'd be an almighty difference in uproar had the Dead-Island clip shown women hacked to pieces if the olga-kay show was one for young boys (especially if presented by a man instead of Olga Kay). Is it really so diffiult to put the shoe on the other foot?
@TableWolfMusic The fact that it was only men hacked to pieces in the clip was completely random. It's not as if she specifically edited out any of the women being hacked up so she could just show violence against men. In fact, you can hear a few female zombies screaming in the background.
There's definitely an overall cultural problem of depicting violence against men more often and more flippantly than women, but right now you're looking for it where it isn't there. It was just random chance.
@KalamityKrisAnimates I know the video was random choice. You're the one reading something into my comment which isn't there. This is a little bit frustrating speaking with you about this tbh. You seem to be starting up these little fires and I end up running around stamping them out. If you look at my comments again, you'll see that what I'm saying is that it doesn't even cross somebody's mind that it is bad when men die. whereas if it were women, uploaders would hesitate.
@TableWolfMusic This is ridiculous. Your problem is that a) a woman is making a video b) to other women c) that depicts men dying. I never said earlier you thought Dead Island was sexist, what I said was that you thought the male-only (supposedly gendered) violence depicted in Olga's video was sexist, yet now in this comment your agree that the victims in the video were chosen by random choice? If you understand the victims in the video were (cont)
@KalamityKrisAnimates Oh my god, I cannot even read this monologue of yours in order by clicking "Sort By thread Beta". You really have exploded in a rant of inflated word count. What's all this ABC nonsense? You're just making stuff up as you go along now by fragmenting my sentances. What is the point in doing that? Mate, you are ridiculous. If you really want to start flinging mud at each other like "ridiculous" where will that get anybody? Keyboard warrior much? Oh dear.
@TableWolfMusic Enjoy attacked my writing and your fabricated perception of my personality, rather than re-examining your weak example of male disposability in games. I will leave you to it.
@KalamityKrisAnimates Attack? Erm... no you are the one who started with the "ridiculous" comments etc. Look, mate, everybody can see what you've written. You do know that don't you? You've attempted an argument where there isn't one. While I don't expect everybody in the world to maintain the same opinion, like I said, you were argumentative "enough" to resort to the CAPSLOCK button and also to write many comments in response the more readable 1-comment-at-a-time approach.
@TableWolfMusic male at random, what is your issue? I know that you have an issue with male disposability, but you're aware that Olga didn't choose the male victims intentionally. She didn't glorified or support or normalize men dying. In fact the comment, just prior to the game clip she made a comment that killing people was wrong. And I'm curious, since you acknowledge the men were there randomly, would you have still had a problem (cont)
@KalamityKrisAnimates You have made so many comments, I'm finding it hard to keep track. You strike me as somebody who is argumentative enough to use the capslock button and inflate your word count to the point where it is counterproductive. You're just arguing for the sake of arguing. We agreed on the point my comment was about, as you said:
"There's definitely an overall cultural problem of depicting violence against men more often and more flippantly than women."
@TableWolfMusic You posted your original comment to get a little pat on the back from GWW, but when someone challenged it instead you deem it "argumentative". I disagreed with your comment - I think you could have picked almost any game in the last 2 decades to make your point, but for some reason you chose a randomized clip from one of very few games with equal gender representation in both enemies and player characters. I never used caps. You backtracked and diverted conversation.
@KalamityKrisAnimates Yeah, you really aren't getting anywhere with this are you? I'm not after a pat on the back from GWW. Lame accusation. And anyway, anybody could equally say you're after a pat on the back from women who agree with you. I never backtracked at all. Anybody can read over my comments and yours to see where you grabbed the wrong end of the stick and looked foolish. So now you're puffing your argument up to make it look bigger as it snowballs out of control.
@TableWolfMusic if there had been female zombies interspersed with the male zombies? It still would have been completely random. Finally, here is a video made by a male, for a male audience, INTENTIONALLY depicting only female zombie deaths. Do you have a problem with this video? /watch?v=_DeAbUxVvGI
Young men, boys getting raped. Yes. It's tough to to stop a female relative (aunt) when we are strongly told to respect our elders. I was a victim of 2 aunts at age 10 and then again at 13. Yes it was very weird to say the least and I was ashamed and afraid. Something inside said "This is not right". But whats a young boy to do? Keep spreading the word my lady!
@girlwriteswhat You are light years ahead of your time and I suppose you will do some part in improving the lives,hopes,and aspirations of many young men including your own 2 young men.Really you are running the road less traveled on this planet-right in your own kitchen,which looks just fine to me LOL : )
Norway recently withdrew all the funding to so called "gender studies" in scientific research much due to a documentary "hjernevask" (Brainwash) shown on National Tv NRK. It shines the light on how feminism do not hold up to science when faced with biology and psychology.
sweden still keeps up the gender fascism.
The show has English subtitles and should be seen and spread by anybody antifeminist and interested in the present nordic situation.
i.e. if my father's hits me in the face, he breaks my jaw. if my mother does, it stings a little. one i can easily prosecute. the other i cannot. verbal or emotional assaults are unquantifiable and therefore, virtually, pointless to report. on the former, that is where i think the misapplied "gendered violence" is coming from. war, for millenia, since the beginning of time until the 20th century, is the best example of "gendered & systemic" violence perpetrated by men on men & society.
also, physical size & emotional maturity/developmental capacity of perpetrator and victim, socio-economic correlations w/ incidents of abuse, the role of mental illness in cases of domestic/interpersonal violence, & gender disproportion in the exertion of & normalizing of violence overall, also have to be accounted (difficult if not impossible to collect data). access & reporting are tremendously influenced by all of these factors in ways that aren't just a matter of evolutionary gender bias.
agreed but i grew up in an abusive home (main physical/sexual aggressor being male, main emotional/psychological/verbal aggressor being female--they both suffered the same things, respectively, in their own homes/childhoods, and we all [mum, dad, myself and my sibling] have mental illness requiring medical intervention), my only issue with this is that physical abuse and physical girth makes a difference and understandably so in what we can and cannot police systemically/globally.
Bravo Sister! Your intelligent, informed articulation of this topic has done the most in opening my brothers eyes to the realities of mens issues. I think he seriously thought I was just, I don't know, in my own little world when I spoke about such things.
Another great video. I would like to get your thoughts on male disposability in today's dating scene, and as it relates to social darwinism. I am possibly going to be working on a thesis related to this concept and I think that social behavior in one realm of life carries over to other realms no? So what do you think? Would you mind making a vid on male disposability in partner selection?
Disposable man in say...a bar: I am often not let in without a girl with me, I hold open the door, I give up my seat, I give my jacket, I put myself up for rejection by making the first move, a woman has no problem telling me to fuck off instead of politely declining, i am served after women at the bar, i buy drinks for women even though i dont earn much, if another guy has a problem with a woman i am with the anger is directed at me, i may have to fight to protect a woman's safety...and so on
@AnonymanForeverlol When I was in college I got into every party no matter where. Because I always had at least 4 women in tow. Even if I was alone most people knew I could one day show up with young ladies to add tot he atmosphere of a party. What did the women get from hanging with me? They were aware I knew what parties were good and I was a local. I had a self-perpetuating party gig going on. The currency being traded was the presence of women and knowledge.
When society as a whole can begin using the term(s) person, people, human, homosapien, etc instead of differentiating between the male and female- both in discussion and law/lawmaking, but especially law/lawmaking, then we will have progressed significantly toward eliminating sexism. This is of course saving in the cases where differentiation is necessitated i.e. I prefer to date... fill in the blank with your preference, and laws for protection based on sex/gender etc.
The mark of a person who has fulfilled their full human potential is someone who can care about, and make impassioned arguments for, things that don't benefit them directly. Very nicely done girlwriteswhat. Proud to share a species with ya.
@AcresofAnarchy Amen. I went through alot of crap when I was a kid. I am faaaaarrrrrrr from perfect but I do think it gave me an insight into suffering. So, it really confuses me how many, many people just flat out don't care about anything that does not directly serve their personal interests. It freaks me out more that many, many people (e.g. feminists) do not care at all if other people are adversely affected by their getting what they want....getting what they want is all that matters.
Actually, Women are becoming more and more violent towards men.
I just finished watching a family show on TV: Two 8 year old girls were hitting, slapping and punching an 8 year old boy and ... it was supposed to be FUNNY !!!???
My 14 year old girl was watching it... it's not the first time she watches something like that.. and she herself is becoming more violent towards boys !
Today, Girls hit Boys much more than Boys hit Girls.
Girlwriteswhat,thank you very much for your honest, common sense explanation of why our response to and efforts to prevent domestic violence are failing miserably. teri saveservices(dot)org
lets be honest, the Egyptian thing from america's MSM is about viewers and viewers are attracted to sex.
those women chanting, are in a society, where the men DO the fighting and some women can join--if they got permission. i guess you forgot the Egyptian muslim vs christian violence there that killed many people only weeks before...Egypt is still a Muslim country, so lets not blame feminists for the their backwards society.
male violence needs to be address, lets not scapegoat.
i got your vid: male violence needs to be address; but your scapegoating isn't working... like, when it comes to advertising, while do a PSA.
and yes, horrors of men dying in war became trivialized and their deaths became martyrdom-ish because they were the fighting force; the government knows a man willing to fight and die was a better solider, than one who was drafted.
u want to bring up male victims in violence, without talking about the situations behind it, why?
@FREEAMERICANOW69 No, you didn't get my vid. I have not scapegoated feminism as complicit in male-directed systemic gendered violence.
My critique was of feminism's insistence on there being a global problem of female-directed systemic gendered violence when there is no such thing, and its resistance to the reality that all systemic gendered violence in society--patriarchal or otherwise--is directed against males.
If feminism is "the doctor", it's a shitty diagnostician.
@girlwriteswhat hey, this is off subject, however. i just had a debate with a female friend about the fact that many women get into relationship with dangerous and violent men! gangbangers, drugdealer, convicted murders etc. most men know that many women knowingly get into relationships with dangerous and violent men yet meny women deny this fact. why do many women choose to date dangerous and violent men? and why do so many women deny this fact?
@FREEAMERICANOW69 Let me be a good memeber of the patriarchy, and protect the woman, here: Her scapegoating isn't working, because her scapegoating DOESN'T EXIST. You're arguing with a tombstone, and looking appropriately foolish. Systemic gendered violence is what she was addressing--and the mentality over the news coverage of Egypt is the same thing that drives it in the USA, and other countries.
@FREEAMERICANOW69, ah, it's nice to know that people like you are typical American imperialists: contemptuous of every culture and race except your own, genocidal in your thinking, yet compelled to project your own evil impulses onto other ethnicities and cultures. It's nice to know that as we head into the 21st century, certain traditional American values like racism, hatred and hypocrisy are still embodied by valiant citizens such as yourself.
@FREEAMERICANOW69, I assume that by "free American" you mean "free to bomb anyone you hate back to the Stone Age". What a wonderful person you are! Why, if more people were like you, the Earth would already be a nuclear wasteland.
@FREEAMERICANOW69 I think u got a bit confused, she wasnt blaming feminists for the violence against men, she was just saying that society is more outraged when women are victims of violence.
@FREEAMERICANOW69 And so the predictable feminist hypocrisy begins. There is an old saying "charity begins at home". You claim you're not diminishing male survivors such as myself, yet refer to instances of violence in third world countries to excuse abusive female behaviour and the corrupt system supporting it in 1st world countries. But then what else should be expected from the mindset of the "perpetual immaculate uterus of perpetual victimhood"?
sigh...for the commercial, you have to look at the marketing, time and whether the majority of audience who will pay your product will support you.
i'm not trying to down-play male victims of violence, but when promoting PRODUCT and a PSA: want a psa that is easy to swallow---you don't want your viewers to think hard about other issues.
also, lets keep in mind at the time, men were the fighting force in war...so "dying w/ honor" was so keep men "happy".
@FREEAMERICANOW69 Actually, the majority of the dead in war are poor landless conscripts, mere cannon fodder for the rulers; "patriotism" has simply become the latest whip by which serfs of the state are harangued into giving up their lives. "Men" weren't kept "happy" by dying with honor; centralized state power is kept safe by having a disposable gender. Most every civilized state has used men in that capacity--"with your shield or on it"--to enable the worst kinds of petty tyrants and kings.
"centralized state power is kept safe by having a disposable gender." duh. my point-- she doesn't want to address government's role of "honor in death" in wartime propaganda...thus, the he-man-woman-hating club will having another illogical tool to use against feminism.
i do believe that propaganda of war: dying, fighting for the homeland, really DID keep some men happy... just like some people believe in jebus christ--- a pretty lies makes people happy.
@FREEAMERICANOW69 You mean like your hated model of "an oppressed housewife" that had no dreams of their own nor their potential fulfilled kept some women happy? Brainwashing is the essential psychological prison needed to atrophy human potential.
i have spent the last few years watchings videos and reading articles refuting feminism, and you have stated the case better than any of those previously, whether man or women.
Great video girlwriteswhat. I wish more women would realize that what your are saying is true. I doubt it will happen though. You know why? Because such a realization is of no benefit to them. Right now, women are the most privileged species in existence. Why would they wanna change that?
What say you about blacks being three or four times more likely to commit rape than Whites, and black men raped White women thirty times as often as White men raped black women.? Surely there's a disconnect somewhere that needs a linkage.
@Catalysis24 My bet is on the culture in that community. If you hear that being a gangsta gangbanger is cool everyday, and that white people are the cause for all the black peoples problems, ofcourse youd have a bigger chance commiting rapes against white women.
I think the main problem is that there was a time, when women and children were in a role that placed them under men, not because men were oppressive, but because that the male had that leadership role to protect the women. However we as a society has sadly lose that mind set and act like women need to have a higher role than men, yet they should remain innocent and delicate. Men and Women are NOT equal, they are different, But they do have the capacity to live coherently.
Can we just agree that everyone has their battle and one is not less worthy than the others? This is not a competition. Humans all need to cooperate. Violence is not inherent to males or to females. It is present in people, period, and parasites exist in any form. Culture can be a massive conduit for violence, in men as in women, depending on the environment (cf aggressive feminists as part of modern western culture if you wish).
@MsWildtiger "Can we just agree that everyone has their battle and one is not less worthy than the others? This is not a competition. Humans all need to cooperate. "
It would seem to me that this video has already done just that, but has moved to the action step of what that cooperation needs to address, by combating the misrepresentation of the violence that is in all of us. I think she's done a great job.
By the way guys don't jump down my throat, not just men were spoken about in the video, women were referred to too and that is why I responded. I have never negated men's suffering and I have shed bitter tears over the plights of men, especially when it comes to genital mutilation and the gangsterism rife in my community. In my birth town women stress when they give birth to boys because they know life will be harder for them, just walking down the road can be life threatening.
Women are the big pillars of society...hmm how can someone be a pillar when they can't even carry their weight without a man doing the main grunt of the lifting lol.
I only started hearing a lot about feminism this summer, and started to feel like perhaps women were only ever oppressed at everything. But after I have watched your videos, and heard some other perspective, I have begun to realize that there is no "absolute" right answer, only different perspectives. People can bend facts to fit their pre-conceived notions. Now, I just ignore people who declare themselves as being oppressed, at least in the west.
Here in South Africa the people who are the most mugged (by men) are the honest hard working women on their way to and from work. The men are lazy and prey on the defenseless. It is of course a generality but an overwhelming one. It is hard for me to relate to your reality and agree with everything you say, though I do see your point and you have many intelligent arguments. I think african feminism has a vital role as women are the everyday heroes in South Africa.
@MsWildtiger I'm curious, have you ever stopped your "we women are so wonderful and perfect, and the bad bad men keep hurting us, oh pity me oh pity me" long enough to wonder why so many men are turning to crime to survive? Ever wonder if maybe, the reason all the men are muggers and the women are mugged may have to do with gender politics making employment easy for women while working against men? I don't have the answer to that question, as I'm not African, but the US is on it's way there?
@MNeilGri don't put words into my mouth. Look for a fight elsewhere. The status of women in South African cultures leaves a lot to be desired as they are more often than not regarded as minors. Bride abduction still occurs here on a daily basis. I know my reality, you know yours. No need for a war between you and I.
@MsWildtiger And acknowledging men have issues too detract's from your women's issues? is that why you can't allow someone to speak up for men without trying to inject the "pity us women" attitude? There is absolutely no need for someone to ALWAYS, EVERY SINGLE TIME, come in and tell us how bad women have it whenever there is a person talking about men's issues, except as an attempt to usurp the compassion, to try and get people back onto the pity women train and leave men to fend for themselves
@MsWildtiger Did you read any of what I said? Or did you simply dismiss it as "angry" and lashing out? Imagine for a moment, every single time, and I do mean EVERY SINGLE TIME, you attempted to point out how women are treated, dozen's of men came along and started telling their sob stories about how men are mistreated, and how we should be helping men solve their problems and completely and utterly ignoring what you had to say. Entirely changing the topic. Would you accept that?
@MNeilGri I'm sorry for the other people that hurt you but I am not responsible for them. I can only speak for myself and I gave you a detailed explanation of my why's and wherefores without attacking you. for the record, I don't mind hearing about men. I am into human rights in general, not just into women's rights. About the topic, I have explained what I was responding to. This is a public forum and I think debate is healthy. (cont'd)
@MsWildtiger Every time. You'd rather assume someone "hurt" me, rather than acknowledge your own failings. And your explanations have nether been detailed, nor where they actual why's, simply attempts to justify your actions as corrections or defenses against things never said. The author never denied women suffer, she simply said it is mens suffering that is ignored. You defended against that by ignoring the fact the discussion was of ignoring men's suffering, and speaking of women
@MNeilGri ...I don't like to be judged on "dozen's" of people's mentality just like you don't like to be judged along with other men. None of us should be judged as globally good or globally bad and that is the bottom line of why I responded. I just thought the message was way too general and I had to defend certain situations where this generalisation affects me, just as it would affect you if roles were reversed. I hope I have made myself clear...
@MsWildtiger I judged you on your own actions. Your choice to inject a plethora of women's issues that affect yourself into a discussion about how men's issues are ignored in favor of claiming it's women that suffer "systemic violence". I may have presume your motives were the same as every other person that does the exact same things, and I may have been wrong to do so, but you haven't proven that yet. You simply continue to justify it and attempt to shame me, just like the rest.
@MNeilGri goodness gracious, to shame you? I am shocked. Seriously! when I leave comments about how men's circumcision is considered an non-issue under female genital mutilation videos am I wrong too? I'm really sorry I ever addressed you because you seem dead set on attacking me. I really tried to have meaningful exchange but I shouldn't have.
@MsWildtiger "You must have been hurt to feel such anger" instead of addressing what I actually said (hell, even when addressing what I actually said) is shaming language. Be shocked all you want, but you said it. Ask yourself, what was the reasoning for such an accusation against me? was it relevant? was it necessary to project it?
@MNeilGri You can't win because society and people like her don't see men as people. Men are characters, men are unrelated abstract concepts....but full flesh and blood beings who might feel pain and be suffering isn't even a possibility. A single women gets hit, the society DEMANDS the whole country rise up in arms....a man gets beheaded...well its just another dad at the office.
Yes, because you are the rightful judge of what is in and out of proportion. You ARE using shaming language towards men who are expressing a view point you don't like. It is a brand new concept to anyone familiar with MRM
@utubehayter have you seen the way he addressed me from the start? what if I had to get as bad as him? what would that have made me??? try and read this from the start instead of falling for his provocations! gooness, what a load of abuse, no wonder you guys are so unhappy, all three of you!
Yes, I have seen the "way" he addressed Your Highness. If you were to get as "bad" as him, it would be an improvement. It would have made you a more compassionate and empathetic person.
"no wonder you guys are so unhappy, all three of you!"
Ah! another helping of shaming. Nice! Yes, and men are the ones who should be polite to ... YOU? Go to hell for all I care
@MNeilGri you are the one who forced me to justify myself over and over again for one simple innocent comment then you tried to portray my replies as rants. Very talented manipulator...not a good ambassador for your cause.
@MsWildtiger Defend? Defend would imply she said something untruthful or accusatory. None of your comments were defending against anything she had to say, they were simply injecting your own agenda into the discussion. You appear to have simply taken her failure to focus on your gender as something that needed correcting. Your welcome to explain to me what she said that needed "defending" against, and how your comment corrected that mistake.
@MNeilGri My bottom line is that people are not bad/good based on gender. Blood-sucking vampires come in all varieties. People use and abuse, not just men, not just women. The vulnerable, emotionally or physically, will be picked on. That's humans. Different humans do the bloodsucking according to circumstances. I emancipated when I stopped thinking of myself as a colour or a gender or part of a culture but as a human rather, and it empowered me. BUT I acknowledge focussed help is vital first.
@MNeilGri And by the way I got very emotional and warmly touched in my heart when I witnessed the love this woman has in her heart for men. It is truly beautiful and very encouraging. I agree with most of what she says, don't let one comment that I had to defend endlessly cloud my admiration of my male counterparts who toil every day in this world.
@MNeilGri Let's just say I wish our men were more like you guys, who do everything you can to be fair in society and get little or no recognition for it. So at the end of the day, all men are not the same all over the world and all women are not the same. So action needs to vary to accommodate these differences in mentality. In Africa we still have a long way to go to get where you are. I have noticed in Europe for eg women are very harsh towards men (in general). I am not a feminist btw.
@MsWildtiger But in the western culture, there is no difference in mentality, according to feminists. the men in the western nations are as bad as you claim African men are, and the western women are as bad off as you claim to have it. And actions need to be taken in western laws and policies to stop that from continuing. But men suffer too, we are neither the invulnerable monsters, nor the beneficiaries of all (and only) good things society offers, feminists make us out to be. Do you deny this?
@MNeilGri I am not saying men don't suffer, please read my comments carefully. I acknowledge that gender roles are different everywhere and I have seen many cases of men being abused by western women, that is why they love getting together with us traditional ones. There is a wonderful exchange of appreciation in cross-cultural marriages, like mine. My husband is very grateful for my nurturing and I am very grateful for his kindness. We would not easily find it in our own communities.
@MsWildtiger "I am not saying men don't suffer" No, but your choice to initiate a "women's issues" conversation (which, in the west as least, is the predominant, if not the only gender conversation ever had) instead of discussing the topic at hand is presenting as "lets talk about women instead.". Can you not see how that portrays as "men don't matter"? Is it so much to ask that a conversation on the issues men suffer stays on men's issues, instead of being steered towards women?
@brownie1982ad It's not a man/woman thing. The more vulnerable will be picked on in any given circumstance. The same goes for women that emotional abuse men who are kind and gentle.
@brownie1982ad So? It happens to be the case with most of the world on a geographical scale. The places where there is equality or domination by women constitute a minority on a global scale.
Being African, I can speak for Africa. Women are the big pillars of society, facing responsibilities that few men face. They have to carry every burden of society and are often the main bread winners. Yet they are raped and killed all the time. The statistics would make your hair stand on end. Even if only for the interests of the children that they mostly raise alone, women here need special protection. In many cases they cannot negotiate fertility, or a condom or even sex in the first place.
@MsWildtiger Once again, we have a feminist trying to subvert the conversation and return it to women's issues. do you deny that what she said regarding how men were treated, as being disposable, is correct? Because in your comment, you never actually claim she's wrong, you just try to guilt us into pitying you, simultaneously claiming women's superiority (pillars), how they're downtrodden (burdens) and how they're victims, and once again ignore how men suffer. and you wonder why they gave up?
@MNeilGri I think you are not understanding me at all so your anger is wasted on me. What you are saying is not a reply to me, just a knee-jerk reaction. I am just saying feminist action is environment-dependant. I have seen enough women battling to survive rape and its consequences such as back street abortions and HIV. These women need help.
@MsWildtiger "I am just saying feminist action is environment-dependent." But it's not environment dependent. Routinely, the 'plight of women in [insert third world country here]" is used to justify further actions against men and/or for women in north america all the time. Almost daily I hear "women only make up x% of CEO's worldwide" as evidence there should be more quota's or affirmative action taken in western nations. And why the need to mention your issues? Can't mens issues get some time?
@MNeilGri I am responding to the issue in the video about women not needing special protection and the "more men are victims" allegation. That definitely depends on where you are. The whole world is not america so you cannot put all men and all women under one label.
@MsWildtiger, of course these women need help, but there are hundreds of thousands of men in prison that get raped every day. Many of them end up with HIV, and many of them wind up getting murdered. Do we hear about these victims, ever? No. Does society care? No. It's good that we care for abused women, but we MUST give the same consideration to abused men.
And before you spout nonsense that all those prisoners deserve to be raped (hundreds of times), most of them are in jail for drug use
@MsWildtiger, and besides, the very notion that those in prison should be raped is Unconstitutional. The Constitution forbids cruel or unusual punishment, and being imprisoned in a prison were widespread rape is allowed to exist does indeed constitute cruel and unusual punishment.
People always say, "That guy should be in jail and get raped!" for MEN. They never say such things about women. NEITHER sex should be raped in prison.
@MsWildtiger, cool. Sorry if I was harsh. I try to be as civil as possible with my comments, but I don't always succeed.
I'm glad to see a woman who believes men deserve the same consideration as women. In the West, it's a rare thing.
The heart of what I'm saying about American society is that it not only doesn't care about men, it doesn't care about alot of things: global warming, the well-being of those who live in other countries, and morality in general.
@MsWildtiger, I will say that I think the great majority of rapists are men, but only because men are physically stronger and having an easier time of holding down people to rape them. It doesn't stem from female moral superiority, because neither sex is morally superior to the other. And even though men are stronger and faster, they are susceptible to many diseases that occur only rarely in women. I believe the sexes are different and yet equal. I wish feminists could understand that.
@KhagarBalugrak I really agree that immorality has no gender and that it is a question of opportunism vs vulnerability, aided by enabling environments. This video is very revealing w w w. ted . com/talks/steven_pinker_on_the_myth_of_violence.html. Men often are in jail because of women. From the moment that the mother asks no questions when her teen brings home loads of cash then the girlfriend and the wife repeat the pattern.
@KhagarBalugrak If we take prison out of the equation (and talk about daily life), I don't believe men are the majority of rapists at all. It gets iffy because everyone thinks rape = force and violence and women don't generally do that. It's more often something like a teacher systematically segregating a student and weaseling her way in, which everyone doesn't see as rape, they just see it as a joke.

hm, id like to see your opinion on advertising and the sexual portrayal of woman in music and television etc. also the double standard of a girl being a slut and a man being the best thing ever in terms of of having sex
@NattieAngel Why? There's already thousands of journalists & talk shows addressing those issues. In contrast there are very few people, especially women, addressing the issues and discrimination men face.
@NattieAngel That happens to men to. You've never seen the pepsi ads from the nineties? Or the more recent man on a horse ads? There is also the issue of men being the clutz or the moron or the wrongdoer in so many adverts. How many ads can you recall where the women embaresses a man infront of her friends and they all laugh? Or where a child wants something and its the man who gets to say no. If someone does something violent on an ad it's always a male perpertrator. Watch more TV.
@NattieAngel Slut shaming is a female response to sexual rivals. It is a rare incident where a man will use slut shamming outside of an altercation involving (perceived) sexual betrayal of rejection. It isn't discrimination. As others have noted, both men and woman have portrayals within the media. I'd rather my gender be portrayed as sexual beings than the abusive or disposable buffoon we always are, absorbing abuse, outwitted by children, incapable of using an air freshener
the term misandry comes to mind.

@girlwriteswhat It's true what you say about the old imagery of women abusing men with skillets, rolling bins, etc. In a women's studies class I took the professor thought it would be a lark to put a photo in the syllabus of an old statue of two figures, a female who's hitting the male with a rolling bin. It goes back centuries. There's also the 1963 review of comic strips, which revealed much more cases of wives in the cartoons being more violent towards their husbands.

@silvermirror03 Some food for thought out there - what would you consider violence from women? A woman hitting a man is not always acknowledged as violence.

@Railstarfish , i would consider it as violence if it is above a certain level of ferocity. A quick thump on the back from your gf is not an attack, especially if you were eyeing some pretty dame. Swinging a frying pan would definately qualify as violence.

Why have you shown men dying in graphic bleeding violence during a computer game on your youtube video which you clearly target at an audience to include kid girls? There are age restrictions on such media for a reason, you know. Yet you have taken it upon yourself to veto that. I'd like to know if some guys on youtube could perhaps target towards boys, videos showing computer games where women get hacked to pieces?

@TableWolfMusic Just watched the clip, which is from the game "Dead Island". While you might be right about the gore not being suitable for children, you're not right about there being sexism in the depicted violence. Dead Island has both male and female zombies to kill, in equal numbers, and male and female characters to play and kill them as. There's no gendering of the murder in that particular game.
KalamityKrisAnimates 2 weeks ago
@KalamityKrisAnimates I never said Dead-Island was sexist. But it's somehow acceptable the footage was of killing men? Think about that as per girlwriteswhat's video. So my point is, considering Olga's show is for girls, there'd be an almighty difference in uproar had the Dead-Island clip shown women hacked to pieces if the olga-kay show was one for young boys (especially if presented by a man instead of Olga Kay). Is it really so diffiult to put the shoe on the other foot?
TableWolfMusic 2 weeks ago
@TableWolfMusic The fact that it was only men hacked to pieces in the clip was completely random. It's not as if she specifically edited out any of the women being hacked up so she could just show violence against men. In fact, you can hear a few female zombies screaming in the background.
There's definitely an overall cultural problem of depicting violence against men more often and more flippantly than women, but right now you're looking for it where it isn't there. It was just random chance.

You're arguing with a tombstone, and looking appropriately foolish. Systemic gendered violence is what she was addressing--and the mentality over the news coverage of Egypt is the same thing that drives it in the USA, and other countries.

@FREEAMERICANOW69, ah, it's nice to know that people like you are typical American imperialists: contemptuous of every culture and race except your own, genocidal in your thinking, yet compelled to project your own evil impulses onto other ethnicities and cultures. It's nice to know that as we head into the 21st century, certain traditional American values like racism, hatred and hypocrisy are still embodied by valiant citizens such as yourself.

@FREEAMERICANOW69 And so the predictable feminist hypocrisy begins. There is an old saying "charity begins at home". You claim you're not diminishing male survivors such as myself, yet refer to instances of violence in third world countries to excuse abusive female behaviour and the corrupt system supporting it in 1st world countries. But then what else should be expected from the mindset of the "perpetual immaculate uterus of perpetual victimhood"?

sigh...for the commercial, you have to look at the marketing, time and whether the majority of audience who will pay your product will support you.
i'm not trying to down-play male victims of violence, but when promoting PRODUCT and a PSA: want a psa that is easy to swallow---you don't want your viewers to think hard about other issues.
also, lets keep in mind at the time, men were the fighting force in war...so "dying w/ honor" was so keep men "happy".
FREEAMERICANOW69 1 month ago
@FREEAMERICANOW69 Actually, the majority of the dead in war are poor landless conscripts, mere cannon fodder for the rulers; "patriotism" has simply become the latest whip by which serfs of the state are harangued into giving up their lives. "Men" weren't kept "happy" by dying with honor; centralized state power is kept safe by having a disposable gender. Most every civilized state has used men in that capacity--"with your shield or on it"--to enable the worst kinds of petty tyrants and kings.

"centralized state power is kept safe by having a disposable gender." duh. my point-- she doesn't want to address government's role of "honor in death" in wartime propaganda...thus, the he-man-woman-hating club will having another illogical tool to use against feminism.
i do believe that propaganda of war: dying, fighting for the homeland, really DID keep some men happy... just like some people believe in jebus christ--- a pretty lies makes people happy.

What say you about blacks being three or four times more likely to commit rape than Whites, and black men raped White women thirty times as often as White men raped black women.? Surely there's a disconnect somewhere that needs a linkage.

@Catalysis24 My bet is on the culture in that community. If you hear that being a gangsta gangbanger is cool everyday, and that white people are the cause for all the black peoples problems, ofcourse youd have a bigger chance commiting rapes against white women.

I think the main problem is that there was a time, when women and children were in a role that placed them under men, not because men were oppressive, but because that the male had that leadership role to protect the women. However we as a society has sadly lose that mind set and act like women need to have a higher role than men, yet they should remain innocent and delicate. Men and Women are NOT equal, they are different, But they do have the capacity to live coherently.

Can we just agree that everyone has their battle and one is not less worthy than the others? This is not a competition. Humans all need to cooperate. Violence is not inherent to males or to females. It is present in people, period, and parasites exist in any form. Culture can be a massive conduit for violence, in men as in women, depending on the environment (cf aggressive feminists as part of modern western culture if you wish).
MsWildtiger 1 month ago
@MsWildtiger "Can we just agree that everyone has their battle and one is not less worthy than the others? This is not a competition. Humans all need to cooperate. "
It would seem to me that this video has already done just that, but has moved to the action step of what that cooperation needs to address, by combating the misrepresentation of the violence that is in all of us. I think she's done a great job.

By the way guys don't jump down my throat, not just men were spoken about in the video, women were referred to too and that is why I responded. I have never negated men's suffering and I have shed bitter tears over the plights of men, especially when it comes to genital mutilation and the gangsterism rife in my community. In my birth town women stress when they give birth to boys because they know life will be harder for them, just walking down the road can be life threatening.

I only started hearing a lot about feminism this summer, and started to feel like perhaps women were only ever oppressed at everything. But after I have watched your videos, and heard some other perspective, I have begun to realize that there is no "absolute" right answer, only different perspectives. People can bend facts to fit their pre-conceived notions. Now, I just ignore people who declare themselves as being oppressed, at least in the west.

Here in South Africa the people who are the most mugged (by men) are the honest hard working women on their way to and from work. The men are lazy and prey on the defenseless. It is of course a generality but an overwhelming one. It is hard for me to relate to your reality and agree with everything you say, though I do see your point and you have many intelligent arguments. I think african feminism has a vital role as women are the everyday heroes in South Africa.

@MsWildtiger I'm curious, have you ever stopped your "we women are so wonderful and perfect, and the bad bad men keep hurting us, oh pity me oh pity me" long enough to wonder why so many men are turning to crime to survive? Ever wonder if maybe, the reason all the men are muggers and the women are mugged may have to do with gender politics making employment easy for women while working against men? I don't have the answer to that question, as I'm not African, but the US is on it's way there?

@MNeilGri don't put words into my mouth. Look for a fight elsewhere. The status of women in South African cultures leaves a lot to be desired as they are more often than not regarded as minors.

@MsWildtiger And acknowledging men have issues too detract's from your women's issues? is that why you can't allow someone to speak up for men without trying to inject the "pity us women" attitude? There is absolutely no need for someone to ALWAYS, EVERY SINGLE TIME, come in and tell us how bad women have it whenever there is a person talking about men's issues, except as an attempt to usurp the compassion, to try and get people back onto the pity women train and leave men to fend for themselves

@MsWildtiger Every time. You'd rather assume someone "hurt" me, rather than acknowledge your own failings. And your explanations have nether been detailed, nor where they actual why's, simply attempts to justify your actions as corrections or defenses against things never said.

@MsWildtiger I judged you on your own actions. Your choice to inject a plethora of women's issues that affect yourself into a discussion about how men's issues are ignored in favor of claiming it's women that suffer "systemic violence". I may have presume your motives were the same as every other person that does the exact same things, and I may have been wrong to do so, but you haven't proven that yet. You simply continue to justify it and attempt to shame me, just like the rest.

@MsWildtiger "You must have been hurt to feel such anger" instead of addressing what I actually said (hell, even when addressing what I actually said) is shaming language.

MNeilGri 1 month ago
@MNeilGri My bottom line is that people are not bad/good based on gender. Blood-sucking vampires come in all varieties. People use and abuse, not just men, not just women. The vulnerable, emotionally or physically, will be picked on. That's humans. Different humans do the bloodsucking according to circumstances. I emancipated when I stopped thinking of myself as a colour or a gender or part of a culture but as a human rather, and it empowered me. BUT I acknowledge focussed help is vital first.

@MNeilGri And by the way I got very emotional and warmly touched in my heart when I witnessed the love this woman has in her heart for men. It is truly beautiful and very encouraging.

MsWildtiger 1 month ago
@MNeilGri Let's just say I wish our men were more like you guys, who do everything you can to be fair in society and get little or no recognition for it. So at the end of the day, all men are not the same all over the world and all women are not the same. So action needs to vary to accommodate these differences in mentality. In Africa we still have a long way to go to get where you are. I have noticed in Europe for eg women are very harsh towards men (in general). I am not a feminist btw.
MsWildtiger 1 month ago
@MsWildtiger But in the western culture, there is no difference in mentality, according to feminists. the men in the western nations are as bad as you claim African men are, and the western women are as bad off as you claim to have it. And actions need to be taken in western laws and policies to stop that from continuing. But men suffer too, we are neither the invulnerable monsters, nor the beneficiaries of all (and only) good things society offers, feminists make us out to be. Do you deny this?
MNeilGri 1 month ago
@MNeilGri I am not saying men don't suffer, please read my comments carefully. I acknowledge that gender roles are different everywhere and I have seen many cases of men being abused by western women, that is why they love getting together with us traditional ones. There is a wonderful exchange of appreciation in cross-cultural marriages, like mine. My husband is very grateful for my nurturing and I am very grateful for his kindness. We would not easily find it in our own communities.
MsWildtiger 1 month ago
@MsWildtiger "I am not saying men don't suffer" No, but your choice to initiate a "women's issues" conversation (which, in the west as least, is the predominant, if not the only gender conversation ever had) instead of discussing the topic at hand is presenting as "lets talk about women instead.". Can you not see how that portrays as "men don't matter"? Is it so much to ask that a conversation on the issues men suffer stays on men's issues, instead of being steered towards women?

Being African, I can speak for Africa. Women are the big pillars of society, facing responsibilities that few men face. They have to carry every burden of society and are often the main bread winners. Yet they are raped and killed all the time. The statistics would make your hair stand on end. Even if only for the interests of the children that they mostly raise alone, women here need special protection. In many cases they cannot negotiate fertility, or a condom or even sex in the first place.
MsWildtiger 1 month ago
@MsWildtiger Once again, we have a feminist trying to subvert the conversation and return it to women's issues. do you deny that what she said regarding how men were treated, as being disposable, is correct? Because in your comment, you never actually claim she's wrong, you just try to guilt us into pitying you, simultaneously claiming women's superiority (pillars), how they're downtrodden (burdens) and how they're victims, and once again ignore how men suffer. and you wonder why they gave up?

@MNeilGri I think you are not understanding me at all so your anger is wasted on me. What you are saying is not a reply to me, just a knee-jerk reaction. I am just saying feminist action is environment-dependant. I have seen enough women battling to survive rape and its consequences such as back street abortions and HIV. These women need help.
MsWildtiger 1 month ago
@MsWildtiger "I am just saying feminist action is environment-dependent." But it's not environment dependent. Routinely, the 'plight of women in [insert third world country here]" is used to justify further actions against men and/or for women in north america all the time. Almost daily I hear "women only make up x% of CEO's worldwide" as evidence there should be more quota's or affirmative action taken in western nations. And why the need to mention your issues? Can't mens issues get some time?
MNeilGri 1 month ago
@MNeilGri I am responding to the issue in the video about women not needing special protection and the "more men are victims" allegation. That definitely depends on where you are. The whole world is not america so you cannot put all men and all women under one label.
MsWildtiger 1 month ago
@MsWildtiger, of course these women need help, but there are hundreds of thousands of men in prison that get raped every day. Many of them end up with HIV, and many of them wind up getting murdered. Do we hear about these victims, ever? No. Does society care? No. It's good that we care for abused women, but we MUST give the same consideration to abused men.
And before you spout nonsense that all those prisoners deserve to be raped (hundreds of times), most of them are in jail for drug use
KhagarBalugrak 1 month ago
@MsWildtiger, and besides, the very notion that those in prison should be raped is Unconstitutional. The Constitution forbids cruel or unusual punishment, and being imprisoned in a prison were widespread rape is allowed to exist does indeed constitute cruel and unusual punishment.
People always say, "That guy should be in jail and get raped!" for MEN. They never say such things about women. NEITHER sex should be raped in prison.
Oh, and 93% of prisoners are male.

The heart of what I'm saying about American society is that it not only doesn't care about men, it doesn't care about alot of things: global warming, the well-being of those who live in other countries, and morality in general.
KhagarBalugrak 1 month ago
@MsWildtiger, I will say that I think the great majority of rapists are men, but only because men are physically stronger and having an easier time of holding down people to rape them. It doesn't stem from female moral superiority, because neither sex is morally superior to the other. And even though men are stronger and faster, they are susceptible to many diseases that occur only rarely in women. I believe the sexes are different and yet equal. I wish feminists could understand that.

It's more often something like a teacher systematically segregating a student and weaseling her way in, which everyone doesn't see as rape, they just see it as a joke.

How many ads can you recall where the women embaresses a man infront of her friends and they all laugh? Or where a child wants something and its the man who gets to say no. If someone does something violent on an ad it's always a male perpertrator. Watch more TV.

@NattieAngel Slut shaming is a female response to sexual rivals. It is a rare incident where a man will use slut shamming outside of an altercation involving (perceived) sexual betrayal of rejection. It isn't discrimination. As others have noted, both men and woman have portrayals within the media. I'd rather my gender be portrayed as sexual beings than the abusive or disposable buffoon we always are, absorbing abuse, outwitted by children, incapable of using an air freshener
