Gotta correct myself here, *I see discrimination not as a major thing society is doing at present to adults, but something we are all inflicting on children by ascribing to them gender roles from birth. We teach our boys to be tough, and our girls to be pretty, so that's what we're going to get. Until we stop discriminating with our own children and with other people's children and training them to fit the old models of male and female, disparities will remain.
Thank you for this video Criss. I do have to chime in one thing. One of the big reasons for the different choices women tend to make than the men is due to gender discrimination from childhood. Female and Male children are raised differently. I was raised differently than my male relatives. I was not raised to be tough, I was raised to be girly. I see the discrimination of men and women not as something society is doing presently, but something adults are inflicting on children.
I think my main complaint about this video, is that it justifies the pressure on both genders by the corresponding pressure on the opposing gender, and really the argument should be for abolition of that pressure on BOTH genders...You can't just justify discrimiantion by saying that society discriminates equally... The truth is that people shouldn't put pressure on EITHER gender to meet their expectations.
@georgelopezblows I clearly stated, "I do not even know where to begin explaining." It would be too long to cover all of the points through a youtube comment - where you are limited to a certain amount of characters.
By the way, I do KNOW the earth is round; it's a sphere, to be exact.
@Sleepyflowar Yeah, because saying, "I do not even know where to begin explaining" clearly wasn't a cop-out. Yeah, Youtube doesn't let people send multiple comments, in which they can express even the lengthiest thoughts. Yeah, if only you could share your knowledge. Darn Youtube! LOL!!
You believe the earth is round? I see flaws in that belief. So many flaws, that I do not even know where to begin explaining. So I will just leave it at that.
@georgelopezblows I see the connection you're trying to make between my youtube comment on feminism and the comment saying that the earth is round. But seriously, It's not working. They're two different things.
If you're free and would like to discuss this further in a way that is mature and not condescending and mean, then write me a youtube message.
@wereaux If you're going to throw around insults to defend yourself from a nonexistent attack, then no. I'm not going to discuss it. You're being hostile for no reason and it makes me uncomfortable. If you show more respect and willingness to listen, then I will be more than happy to discuss it with you.
@Sleepyflowar OKay, I'll make a special exception for you. I promise not to hurt your tender little feelings. What are these "flaws" you see in her video?
@Exsugarbabe1 Lol To say that Heterosexual men rape other men because, "sometimes it's about power" is ludicrous. It shows that you are a misandrist. It's people like you who give feminism a bad name. & why do you think there are more housewives than house husbands? Well One reason is, to have the wife at home & the husband at work is the best system for marriage ever recorded. Two, most women aren't attracted to men who make less than them. Biology has further proof.

I think she's talking about herself! Men and women need to share the load if they both work. We need to compromise with the family. Why can't men and women take it in turns to go to a child when their sick. I know a few house husbands and they are very happy.
@wbraddell2 male are the vicms in all that, they are homeless, life less time, and have to go to thse wars all over the world. and still womans hate them, that seems retarded for me.
Feminism is an old, last century term that does not stand for equality. "HUMANISM" is the new present century term that means equality for all. The term humanism is neutral to men, women, to all races etc. Welcome to the next step in our evolution. Please us the word humanism or humanist.
in my opinion , feminism is an enemy of its own people and country. just send a feminist of the western countries to africa or midle east for a year or so, that will teach them a lesson for life , if they survive the trip.
@tangerinefarmer well , they need to go there first for a year with out cash. i am not woman, . but if you or them cant think , so i can t say anything.
@tangerinefarmer basicly , my point is that feminsm is crap, it wont make the countries to go any forward and wont help to defeat any enemy. is just like a big , expensive set back. and wont be acepted in africa or midle east, these two parts of the globe are very male controled and so on. So These white feminists are wasting their time and prejudicating people around.
@mariamole011 I don't think the majority of Africa and the Middle East are forward either. If you are selling patriarchy by saying the rest of the world should be like them, you are for a hard sale. The human rights grievences are just too plentiful.
@tangerinefarmer you are right , but the major progress in the developed world was not realy done under feminism (recent decade). i am not saying womans cant be free or independent. i am saying there are risks, big risks, and consequences. just remember the internal debt of the developed countries in the recent decade. it basicly had doubled.
@tangerinefarmer welcome, a lot of people get mad when i critisize feminism, but the strage factor , is that the most free the womans is in the country the most feminism they become, just look at many womans in the US and other rich western countries, they are the most free on the all planet, but still they protest as victims, and still they live more any other woman on the planet, + better off than most in the world. they play psicological games.
It would teach them to be reasonable and put things in the proper perspective. It would bitchslap them with the realization that women in the west are already equal, and that feminists should shut the fuck up and stop their irrational bitching. I think it's a good isea. Deport all feminists to the Middle East!
I don't get the whole cunt being bad, dick being less bad thing. Like if you say cunt, it's this horrible thing and people are automatically offended just by hearing the word, no matter in which context, but dick is, for the most part, acceptable (definitely much more acceptable than cunt anyway). If a call a dude a dick, I don't necessarily mean it in a good way. The same for cunt. They're just fucking words. Neither is 'worse'
@arnean No money for maternal leave is a great idea, the earth is already too overpopulated. If women want equality, than give it to them. I mean I think its a bit unfair that a man does not get the same paternal leave when he has a child, so why should women get this free money. Why would anyone want a higher birth rate anyways? Do people enjoy destroying the earth?
I think you make a lot of well thought out points. I agree with what you say. My biggest problem is men who claim to be persecuted against and want patriarchy rule once again. They often make aggressive, crude mysogynist remarks. You see a lot of them on youtube.
@tangerinefarmer "My biggest problem is men who claim to be persecuted against and want patriarchy rule once again."
Fathers are in fact persecuted as a group. That is a fact. As for the "patriarchy" comment, that's an entirely separate issue. Why did you link the two concepts together in the same sentence? That would be like an anti-suffragist saying "those damn suffragists want women to have rights and make the whole country start practicing witchcraft!"
@wereaux I linked the two together because a lot of the men campagning against feminism link the two together. They say that things were better under a patriarical society. I know fathers have a hard time, and I feel for them. But I do think society is listening to them and making strives to not automatically reward the children to the mother. I don't mind men making valid points. I mind when they say feminism has ruined society. Thank you for your input.
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 these ideas do not hold up to science when faced with biology and psychology.
sweden still keeps up the gender racism.
The show has English subtitles and should be seen and spread by anybody antifeminist and interested in the present nordic situation.
I reach my deadline faster than many men and I am a very efficient worker, do not generalise.
There are some crap female workers and than there are some crap make workers, there are some good female workers and there are some good make workers. Everyone is different.
Not all woman want children. stop assuming and branding people without ever getting to know them.
Erm not all women are the same, many women work longer than men in the same jobs, some go into higher risked work than men and many woman work in harsher climates than men.
@nigen In England Car insurance is allot more cheaper for women, this is because men take more stupid risks that are not needed, women can work in high risk jobs and seem to understand the safety requirement and follow the rules better. Men are also more mentality weak, just look at the amount of male suicides compared to female suicides.
"Men are also more mentality weak, just look at the amount of male suicides compared to female suicides" so... using your rhetoric I can say that the reason men earn more at work is due to higher competency than women. your explanation makes about a much sense.
@nigen Your sentences do not make any sense LOL, I was not talking about ability, I was talking about why people die. Ok the only way a person can fully know what gender is more productive is doing tests on them, you cannot base your arguments on assumptions. For example how do you know there is "higher competency", what evidence is there?Many factories in Korea and Italy only employ female workers, the reason they do this is because the female workers can get paid less and have smaller hands.
@nigen Well men become more mentally weak because of society, men keep their emotions within them, than the negative emotions weather them out making them fragile.
Not all men are like this, but this sort of mentality is one of the leading causes of male suicide. Also when someone kills themselves it is a sign that that they where not strong enough to deal with their negative emotion or physical situation.
@Crystal0mask so in other words, men are denied way women a privileged to, crying. and the fact that you seem to see this as a perfectly acceptable reality, shows that women and feminists in general are going to do little about this, so why are they expecting men to do things for them?
face it, women and feminists alike are still perfectly happy to have males remain the disposable gender, just as long as all form of praise is taken away.
@nigen No I dont see is as acceptable, I think every gender should should be able to express any mental anguish. Its not that we do not allow men, it is because men are afraid too. Society and the media should be changed to allow men to express themselves more. Anyways if I do the same work as a man than I want the same pay, I do not want any assumptions put on me.
"Its not that we do not allow men, it is because men are afraid too"
that, and the minute a man breaks down and shows emotion society turns its back on them, so there is the incentive NOT cry.
the media can be change and for a while was heading in that direction, however, that whole plan falls apart if women also turn there back on men who cry (which they do) so for this change to stick women would have to change too.
@nigen I think everyone should be expected to do the same job, if she/he does not do it than they should have pay deducted. I also believe women should not get any money for maternal leave. So the business does not have to take into consideration a woman leaving work for that matter.
@Crystal0mask Yes, no money for maternal leave does wonders for the birthrate. It's happening all over Europe these days and is a ticking demographic bomb!
@Crystal0mask women *attempt* suicide much more often than men do. men are just more likely to actually succeed, because men tend to have more violent suicide methods- usually, women try to overdose or poison themselves, whereas men tend to hang or shoot themselves. since it's easier to be resusicated from an overdose than bullets in the head, this skews the stats.
@Crystal0mask In England Car insurance is allot more cheaper for women.No it's not not no more that got changed more than over a year ago by LAW now it's the same.
Thank You for being reasonable. I appreciate your honesty and willingness to be realistic in your views. You are the sort of woman that is rare in the midwest, usa- specifically, st. charles, mo.
Nice video, Id just like to say all feminists are not the same, we are not one big identical group. Many women who call themselves feminists I would call non feminists. I get anoyed because I think there are some people on the extreme that have been allowed to take over the word. The only thing all feminist agree with is equal economical, social and political rights and opportunities. I think stripping and prostituion should be legal in example, other feminists think it should be banned.
@Theasen89 well the sooner feminists recognize the extreme as a liability and kick them off and give em and REAL hard bitch slap next time they use the work out of context, the better feminism would look to the populace.
however this is their judgement. if feminists continue to allow their extremists to use the term with abandon, then and still invite them to rallies, then I say that is the new face of feminism and one that needs to stop.
@Theasen89 All I have to say is Listen to all three segments of this show, and prove that feminists are different. If you can do that I will become a Feminist myself. I am an MRA AND PROUD! There is no way that this can disputed if you listen to all three of these segments.... Throwing retarded baby boys out of windows, and blowing men up... how is that ok?
@AcidReflux27 Throwing baby boys out of windows and blowing men up is obviously wrong and has nothing to do with feminism! Feminism is the idea that there should be equal social, political and eqonomical rights and oportunities between the genders. And it also focuses on human rights work for women (like the gay rights movement focuses on human rights for gays). People who call themselves feminist may have opinions on all sorts of things- but that is their opinions, not all feminists opinions.
@wereaux Not really constructive criticism no. You could have pointed out where I had been wrong or where you disagreed, and I would have listened. The definition of feminism is equal social, political and economic rights and opportunities, and it started out as a movement to achieve that. I believe in that and therefore I call myself a feminist. Outside that definition there is an ocean of opinions, not all of which I agree with. And that was my point.
@Theasen89 Here's something for you to ponder. I believe in equal rights and equal opportunity for both genders, and I oppose the idea that one gender should be held as superior to the other. I also hate feminism and actively work to erode and destroy it, bit by bit. I consider feminism one of the greatest threats to society at the moment.
See, it's okay to believe in equal rights and not call yourself a feminist!
@wereaux I dont have an issue with what you call yourself. The definition and idea of feminism is equal social, eqonomic and political rights and opportunities, if you believe in that too thats great. Call yourself whatever you want.
@wereaux I know a lot of people use that term and I don’t mind it. We both want the same thing. I prefer feminism, to me it’s also an homage to the original movement whom I’m grateful for getting women the right to vote, work and control their own bodies. I think it’s a shame if certain extremists (like some who claim ridiculous things like men being naturally evil) are to take that away (like I said in my original post).
@Theasen89 Well, the Suffragists and the Republican Party gave women the vote, not modern feminism. And to be honest, I don't think we do want the same thing. I believe in individual rights, as opposed to special group protections. I believe in equal rights and equal opportunity for each individual person, so that each individual can make his or her own choices. I do not believe in using government power to bully others into getting my personal flavor of social change, or to force equal outcomes
@wereaux Im not american so I cant answer to the republicans, but yes the sufragettes gave women the vote- and they were a feminist group. Im sure we disagree on many things, but individuals right to choose is something I support as a feminist.
@Theasen89 Yeah, I'm not a leftist either. I don't believe a movement that claims to fight for equal rights should take a partisan position in politics. Feminism should be neutral, but it's a leftist ideology.
One reason of the hatred against feminism is that it destroyed the family unit rendering generations of children psychologically damaged and unhappy.
All of you women are Feminists. Which was brought on by your Elites to make money from men and women, since they are both working. That whole women's liberation is a bunch of bullshit. Pretty soon the World will get put back in order and you women will be put under our feet!
Many of your points are reasonable and valid and it was an interesting video to watch, but I think what you forget about is the whole learn behavior thing. For instance, women think "cunt" is a to-genital-degrading-offensive term because a cunt is seen as a weak and vulnerable and bad and whore-ish thing, whereas a penis is differently interpreted by society, not necessarily less dirty, but strong, the one that decides or whatsoever.
Society views are very relevant for your arguments.
@LiviaAnnRox Personally, I don't think women who hate the word 'cunt' actually put that much thought into why they hate that word. They hate it because society told them so. I know a woman who likes to be called every name in the book when she is having sex, except for cunt. She can't even explain why. She just "hates it". Women even walk around town with shirts that say "proud to be a bitch", yet if you call them a cunt, they freak out.
@LiviaAnnRox women think "cunt" is a to-genital-degrading-offensive?? Depends on the culture your from in the UK the word is used all the time by men and women and its not considered offensive bad language yeah but not offensive.So that is just your culture talking
In fact, Christina said it in her video, I was just quoting her. Yes, this differs from culture to culture, just like in the UK it's by far more OK to cuss than in the US for instance. Where I'm from, this term is perceived extremely offensive, that's true.
Christina said that in her video, I was just referring to this. I know this might not count for the UK, because it's i.e. more ordinary and ok to cuss in the UK than in the US; and yet there are places were "cunt" is indeed kinda the worst thing you can use for a woman. Just because it's not true in every case doesn't lessen the fact that it's often enough painful truth.
@LiviaAnnRox Yeah it's just cultural differences here in the UK women say it and call it you as well its just the same as calling someone a dick to us it's not a word that is offensive you could say it like "you're too funny ya cunt" or a aggressive way like arguing "hey u fucking cunt" .I know in the states its a word used to offend and considered offensive.
Who think we should put an end to all this gender role orientated nonsense, western society is trying to build up a culture where men are but national cannon fodder whilst women live the good life either as medics or simply at home with the kids, either way NOT ON THE FRONT LINES!!! i belive men and women are equal and im trying to waken up western society from this delusion that men are meant to do all the dirty work.
SK84ANGELDUST is engaging in a classic bit of feminist bait and switch. Just about everyone agrees that women should have the same rights and opportunities as me. That is not what makes feminism so disliked. It's stuff like claiming that there's this evil patriarchy where men are deliberately trying to keep women down or the idea that we all support rape (see Duke lacrosse). Feminists refuse to face up to the real problem. Pretend problems are so much more fun.
Oh my god. I agreed with every single thing you said. Every. Single. Thing. That never happens with videos like this. My mother's one of those feminist you talk about and i sort of took my cues from her when I was little, but everything here makes sense, is well-articulated and expresses my exact views. Thankyou.
@wereaux I think all feminists are heroes?? I stressed earlier (I think), that I think extreme feminists are nuts. You are being extreme because oh, i don't know, "feminism is generally evil." Because that is an extreme opinion to irrationally generalize all feminisms to be evil (shocker!). You can fight for your rights, but realize that NOT ALL FEMINISTS ARE THE PROBLEM. Reevaluate the angle you're going at this? Accept that some feminists actually want to better conditions for BOTH sexes.
I understand that you want better things for both sexes, but then why call yourself "feminist"? Shouldn't all people want the betterment of humanity, not just some subset of women? I think the reason you get grouped with those extremists is because the name itself lends a lot to the idea of bias. People take things for face value quite often.
@vincent15641 I'm sorry but the amount of ignorance in your posts are overwhelming. I just need to clarify the whole cover charge thing for clubs. Firstly, club owners (who are most likely MEN) are the ones charging men more than women (thus, BLAME CLUB OWNERS). Secondly, women arent charged less because their wonderful, its because MEN come to the club more when MORE SEXY WOMEN come. Its capitalism you should blame, not feminism. You're so naive for thinking feminists are to blame for this.
@vincent15641 Oh and btw, your logic is flawed. Here's why pal:
Idea 1: If a man always pays for a woman and drives her around, then society is showing favoritism for women, men are victimized, women in a way are worshiped. Idea 2: If a woman always pays for a man and drives him around, then the man is being submissive and is a dependent child.
in both situations, you claim that the man is getting shorthanded. Which one is it? It can't be both. in my opinion, I think both are wrong.
@vincent15641 In a previous comment I said "dominant makers" when I meant to type "dominant money makers." Basically I'm referring to how men are pressured by society to always pay for dates and make more money than their woman.
@vincent15641 Oh i see, when there's an example of how a woman participates in an equal relationship and drives his man around, you assume the man is submissive. You are contributing to the notion that men who get driven around are submissive. This is exactly the mentality that pressures men into being the dominant makers, because men like you like to downgrade them as submissive. And i told you, that he does everything in return for me. We take turns, you see. So what is your claim now?
@SK84ANGELDUST "yeah, because me volunteering and donating an helping my friends and the people in my community is not lifting a finger, right?"
Exactly. Where were you when the feminist leadership was pushing VAWA and Rape Shield and on the airwaves demonizing men? You never raised a single objection to it.
I find it problematic that boy's are doing worse in school than girls. I find it problematic that the general view is that a man can't get raped. I find it problematic that domestic violence against men is laughed off and not taken seriously. I find it problematic that people excuse rape by referreing to biology. I find these things and more problematic BECAUSE I'm a feminist and I do what I can to change them.
@wereaux Not here, you're right about that. But you'd be surprised how often - when discussing men's violence against women or other men - testosterone is used to excuse or explain that kind of behaviour. I don't think that's fair and it certainly doesn't help prevent it.
@nigen In theory, yes ( but really, no. I'm swedish and Uni is free here, so the money isn't an issue when it comes to the further learning of men. It's more of a confidence-issue, so to me - it's more relevant to take a look at what changes I can make to encourage that behaviour even earlier - say primary school and thereafter.)
well, I guess the concerns for Sweden are WAY different than the US... US has had its head up its ass for too long... oh well, atleast your country takes care for eachother..
@inkdummy "I find it problematic that domestic violence against men is laughed off and not taken seriously."
That's great, but this is not a feminist position.
"I find it problematic that people excuse rape by referreing to biology."
Nobody is using biology to excuse rape.
"I find these things and more problematic BECAUSE I'm a feminist"
That's actually kinda stupid. Why not have a problem with these things because you're a decent human being? Why is the crazy ideology necessary at all?
@wereaux No shit, Sherlock. Anybody CAN. That doesn't mean that they SHOULD. Not everybody is an extremist. And would ya look at that, practicing what you preach by trying to school ME on dictionary definitions. Guess that makes you a "coward" just like me.
@SK84ANGELDUST "Anybody CAN. That doesn't mean that they SHOULD. Not everybody is an extremist."
I never said that everybody is an extremist. Feminism in general is evil. It doesn't matter that there are some well meaning individuals inside the movement. Those people aren't lifting a goddamned finger to stop the damage that's being done.
@wereaux The fact is, you are just as delusional as extremist feminists who always victimize themselves. You are victimizing yourself over and over again in these comments. "Feminism in general is evil." Hmm, why does that sound familiar? Oh yeah because it sounds almost like "The patriarchy in general is evil."
@wereaux my last rant to you, the most intellectual and insightful man I have encountered.
"It doesn't matter that there are some well meaning individuals inside the movement. Those people aren't lifting a goddamned finger to stop the damage that's being done"
Great, we agree there are well meaning individuals inside the movement. However, blaming them for (apparently) not trying to help men as well is like blaming you for not stopping other men from raping women. Not fair is it? Bye sweety.
Blah blah blah people who don't understand feminism criticize it because they feel threatened. I get it, you feel threatened by extremists who put down men a lot. I would too. Now go bother them.
@carminav25 "I get it, you feel threatened by extremists who put down men a lot. I would too. Now go bother them."
I feel threatened by feminism in general because feminists and their ideology is destroying this country and taking away my rights. It's not just the extremists, it's all feminists. So I will bother all of you until the movement is either destroyed or no longer a threat.
@wereaux calm down. no need to get your panties in a bunch under a video that clearly demonstrates how a lot of women do not agree with extremist feminists. i understand your frustration wholeheartedly. But you're not getting anywhere talking to me. its a waste of time. Everyone generalizes as an instinct, but its our responsibility to analyze the entire picture once we get all the information. Disagree with me, I could care less. Its not like your YT comments are wearing down the extremists.
@wereaux "I feel threatened by feminism in general because feminists and their ideology is destroying this country and taking away my rights"
I don't want to take away your rights. I love men. I respect men. I love having sex with men. This isn't even a feminist issue to me when I say this but...I'm a pretty okay woman if I say so myself. And I don't need your accusations saying I'm taking away your rights. Saying all feminists are the same is like saying all men are the same.
@wereaux And to top it all of, calm down. nobody cares what you have to say under this video. If you were really standing up for men's rights you'd do something productive like fight against men getting raped in prison. It's stuff like that that get's rights for men, not your senseless whining on a youtube video. HAVE. A. NICE. DAY. SIR.
@wereaux Hmm you can't refute the fact that your just another extremist pushing your own political agenda. And also the fact that you irrationally generalize all movements? Alright, sounds good to me. I wouldn't believe you refutation to my claims anyways.
@wereaux Its frustrating because every time I try to hint to you that I agree with you that some feminists are taking away your rights and that I care about men, you seem to be covering your ears and screaming "LALALALA" and completely ignoring it like a child. Because it's not what you want to hear. You want to think that all feminists are enemies of men. It's just easier to blame an entire group right? Continue to think that way and see how much credibility you get from both women and men.
@carminav25 "You want to think that all feminists are enemies of men."
I never said that all feminists are bad, or that I hold every feminist personally responsible.
"every time I try to hint to you that I agree with you that some feminists are taking away your rights and that I care about men..."
You can show you care about men by renouncing feminism. You obviously aren't objecting to the leadership's actions, so that implies you tacitly approve of it (or just plain ignorant). Renounce it!
@wereaux if you had bothered to read the middle of my comment, you would notice that i said that assuming that all feminists think and act the same way is ignorant. There is a wide variety of feminist views and not all feminists agree on all topics. and why are you getting on my case about using a definition? if you describe that definiton as confusing, you must not be playing with a full deck because that was extremely simple and easy to understand.
@SK84ANGELDUST "assuming that all feminists think and act the same way is ignorant. There is a wide variety of feminist views and not all feminists agree on all topics."
Why is it that feminists make the claim that one cannot make a general critique of feminism simply because there are many different schools of thought within it? Are you kidding me? Is that the kind of crap they taught you in your Women's Studies class?
Newsflash: Anybody can make a general critique of anything
@SK84ANGELDUST "if you describe that definiton as confusing, you must not be playing with a full deck because that was extremely simple and easy to understand"
Oh really? Easy to understand you say? Then why do so many feminists get it wrong? The Merriam-Webster's dictionary has two meanings. The first one is historical and does not apply today. The second one is the actual definition of modern feminism. If you don't believe me, ask Webster's editorial staff.
What needs to be focused on is not these little bandages of fixing things, it needs to go down to the root of issues follow the roots and it becomes clear why feminism still matters, with roots for example the reason why rape happends is due to lack of respect for each other. Some people say im not a feminist because i give a crap about men, this is aload of crap im a feminist because i want to change how things work and most of the videos I have watched Id say you was a post feminist.
@wereaux So your saying there is no influence that makes people want to be how they are so why is it that in India most women want to become doctors? and most do successfully? where as in the usa, uk there isnt all that many they more go for nursing?
the influences in which role you want to take as an adult, baby girls have a influence of what toys they play with which is aimed at being a house wife, if you got the same for a boy and focused on this it would change, Theres a good documentary called centry of self which exsplains how adverts change how and why people think. I love you have done so much research though most videos people have not.
Gotta correct myself here, *I see discrimination not as a major thing society is doing at present to adults, but something we are all inflicting on children by ascribing to them gender roles from birth. We teach our boys to be tough, and our girls to be pretty, so that's what we're going to get. Until we stop discriminating with our own children and with other people's children and training them to fit the old models of male and female, disparities will remain.

I think my main complaint about this video, is that it justifies the pressure on both genders by the corresponding pressure on the opposing gender, and really the argument should be for abolition of that pressure on BOTH genders...You can't just justify discrimiantion by saying that society discriminates equally... The truth is that people shouldn't put pressure on EITHER gender to meet their expectations.

@tangerinefarmer "My biggest problem is men who claim to be persecuted against and want patriarchy rule once again."
Fathers are in fact persecuted as a group. That is a fact. As for the "patriarchy" comment, that's an entirely separate issue. Why did you link the two concepts together in the same sentence? That would be like an anti-suffragist saying "those damn suffragists want women to have rights and make the whole country start practicing witchcraft!"

@Crystal0mask so in other words, men are denied way women a privileged to, crying. and the fact that you seem to see this as a perfectly acceptable reality, shows that women and feminists in general are going to do little about this, so why are they expecting men to do things for them?
face it, women and feminists alike are still perfectly happy to have males remain the disposable gender, just as long as all form of praise is taken away.

@Crystal0mask women *attempt* suicide much more often than men do. men are just more likely to actually succeed, because men tend to have more violent suicide methods- usually, women try to overdose or poison themselves, whereas men tend to hang or shoot themselves. since it's easier to be resusicated from an overdose than bullets in the head, this skews the stats.

Feminism is the idea that there should be equal social, political and eqonomical rights and oportunities between the genders. And it also focuses on human rights work for women (like the gay rights movement focuses on human rights for gays).

Many of your points are reasonable and valid and it was an interesting video to watch, but I think what you forget about is the whole learn behavior thing.

Secondly, women arent charged less because their wonderful, its because MEN come to the club more when MORE SEXY WOMEN come. Its capitalism you should blame, not feminism. You're so naive for thinking feminists are to blame for this.

@vincent15641 Oh and btw, your logic is flawed. Here's why pal:
Idea 1: If a man always pays for a woman and drives her around, then society is showing favoritism for women, men are victimized, women in a way are worshiped. Idea 2: If a woman always pays for a man and drives him around, then the man is being submissive and is a dependent child.
in both situations, you claim that the man is getting shorthanded. Which one is it? It can't be both. in my opinion, I think both are wrong.

@vincent15641 In a previous comment I said "dominant makers" when I meant to type "dominant money makers." Basically I'm referring to how men are pressured by society to always pay for dates and make more money than their woman.

@vincent15641 Oh i see, when there's an example of how a woman participates in an equal relationship and drives his man around, you assume the man is submissive. You are contributing to the notion that men who get driven around are submissive. This is exactly the mentality that pressures men into being the dominant makers, because men like you like to downgrade them as submissive. And i told you, that he does everything in return for me. We take turns, you see. So what is your claim now?

Exactly. Where were you when the feminist leadership was pushing VAWA and Rape Shield and on the airwaves demonizing men? You never raised a single objection to it.

I find it problematic that boy's are doing worse in school than girls. I find it problematic that the general view is that a man can't get raped. I find it problematic that domestic violence against men is laughed off and not taken seriously. I find it problematic that people excuse rape by referreing to biology. I find these things and more problematic BECAUSE I'm a feminist and I do what I can to change them.

@wereaux Not here, you're right about that. But you'd be surprised how often - when discussing men's violence against women or other men - testosterone is used to excuse or explain that kind of behaviour. I don't think that's fair and it certainly doesn't help prevent it.

@inkdummy If someone cites testosterone as a cause for men's violence, that's okay. Nothing wrong with that.
If someone uses testosterone to excuse violence, then that's fucked up and wrong.

@nigen In theory, yes ( but really, no. I'm swedish and Uni is free here, so the money isn't an issue when it comes to the further learning of men. It's more of a confidence-issue, so to me - it's more relevant to take a look at what changes I can make to encourage that behaviour even earlier - say primary school and thereafter.)

That's great, but this is not a feminist position.
"I find it problematic that people excuse rape by referreing to biology."
Nobody is using biology to excuse rape.
"I find these things and more problematic BECAUSE I'm a feminist"
That's actually kinda stupid. Why not have a problem with these things because you're a decent human being? Why is the crazy ideology necessary at all?

Considering all the favoritism that women expect- like free cover charge, compare these things with the video called "What Women Want is Worship".

I never said that everybody is an extremist. Feminism in general is evil. It doesn't matter that there are some well meaning individuals inside the movement. Those people aren't lifting a goddamned finger to stop the damage that's being done.

@wereaux The fact is, you are just as delusional as extremist feminists who always victimize themselves. You are victimizing yourself over and over again in these comments. "Feminism in general is evil." Hmm, why does that sound familiar? Oh yeah because it sounds almost like "The patriarchy in general is evil."

@wereaux my last rant to you, the most intellectual and insightful man I have encountered.
"It doesn't matter that there are some well meaning individuals inside the movement. Those people aren't lifting a goddamned finger to stop the damage that's being done"
Great, we agree there are well meaning individuals inside the movement. However, blaming them for (apparently) not trying to help men as well is like blaming you for not stopping other men from raping women. Not fair is it? Bye sweety.

@carminav25 "I get it, you feel threatened by extremists who put down men a lot. I would too. Now go bother them."
I feel threatened by feminism in general because feminists and their ideology is destroying this country and taking away my rights. It's not just the extremists, it's all feminists. So I will bother all of you until the movement is either destroyed or no longer a threat.

@wereaux calm down. no need to get your panties in a bunch under a video that clearly demonstrates how a lot of women do not agree with extremist feminists. i understand your frustration wholeheartedly. But you're not getting anywhere talking to me. its a waste of time. Everyone generalizes as an instinct, but its our responsibility to analyze the entire picture once we get all the information. Disagree with me, I could care less. Its not like your YT comments are wearing down the extremists.

I don't want to take away your rights. I love men. I respect men. I love having sex with men. This isn't even a feminist issue to me when I say this but...I'm a pretty okay woman if I say so myself. And I don't need your accusations saying I'm taking away your rights. Saying all feminists are the same is like saying all men are the same.

Then you have no reason whatsoever to be involved in a movement that is harmful to men. As long as you are a feminist, you are the enemy of men.

If you were really standing up for men's rights you'd do something productive like fight against men getting raped in prison.

@wereaux Its frustrating because every time I try to hint to you that I agree with you that some feminists are taking away your rights and that I care about men, you seem to be covering your ears and screaming "LALALALA" and completely ignoring it like a child. Because it's not what you want to hear. You want to think that all feminists are enemies of men. It's just easier to blame an entire group right? Continue to think that way and see how much credibility you get from both women and men.

I never said that all feminists are bad, or that I hold every feminist personally responsible.
"every time I try to hint to you that I agree with you that some feminists are taking away your rights and that I care about men..."
You can show you care about men by renouncing feminism. You obviously aren't objecting to the leadership's actions, so that implies you tacitly approve of it (or just plain ignorant). Renounce it!

@wereaux if you had bothered to read the middle of my comment, you would notice that i said that assuming that all feminists think and act the same way is ignorant. There is a wide variety of feminist views and not all feminists agree on all topics. and why are you getting on my case about using a definition? if you describe that definiton as confusing, you must not be playing with a full deck because that was extremely simple and easy to understand.

@SK84ANGELDUST "assuming that all feminists think and act the same way is ignorant. There is a wide variety of feminist views and not all feminists agree on all topics."
Why is it that feminists make the claim that one cannot make a general critique of feminism simply because there are many different schools of thought within it? Are you kidding me? Is that the kind of crap they taught you in your Women's Studies class?
Newsflash: Anybody can make a general critique of anything

Oh really? Easy to understand you say? Then why do so many feminists get it wrong? The Merriam-Webster's dictionary has two meanings. The first one is historical and does not apply today. The second one is the actual definition of modern feminism. If you don't believe me, ask Webster's editorial staff.

What needs to be focused on is not these little bandages of fixing things, it needs to go down to the root of issues follow the roots and it becomes clear why feminism still matters, with roots for example the reason why rape happends is due to lack of respect for each other. Some people say im not a feminist because i give a crap about men, this is aload of crap im a feminist because i want to change how things work and most of the videos I have watched Id say you was a post feminist.

the influences in which role you want to take as an adult, baby girls have a influence of what toys they play with which is aimed at being a house wife, if you got the same for a boy and focused on this it would change, Theres a good documentary called centry of self which exsplains how adverts change how and why people think.
