A male feminist walks into a bar

I love you anyway.

He loves weddings so much, he had three of them!

Reality leans left. People what can’t handle that are welcome to try drugs or something to take the edge off.

I’m curious what you think the other good points are, because I honestly don’t see them.

This is the common conservative refrain: the bleeding-heart liberals and their sob stories about disenfranchised minorities have obscured who the real victim is here: ME. THE WHITE GUY WHO IS ENTITLED TO EVERYTHING!

One point being, we should be able to discuss this without instantly shaming/closing off the opposing viewpoint.

This is pure techbro. White dudes who think they got there on merit alone (lawl) and are trying to post-justify it, like they post-justify women and minorities being less competent. Bringing up IQ pretty much seals it.

Now you’re just being biologically neurotic, which is not your fault, but I’m going to have to give you a 20% pay cut, because it makes sense to.

I believe he’s frustrated that not all people are men who look like him. The struggle is real.

Not to mention all the departures from reason and facts that his gut-driven manifesto is built on

because conservatives tend to be higher in conscientiousness

Except when it applies to him, everyone needs to feel empathy for him.

Oh, there it is. Poor thing. Life is so hard. “Guys, why can’t I be an asshole at work?”

• I’ve heard several calls for increased empathy on diversity issues. While I strongly support trying to understand how and why people think the way they do, relying on affective empathy—feeling another’s pain‚causes us to focus on anecdotes, favor individuals similar to us, and harbor other irrational and dangerous…

I value diversity and inclusion, am not denying that sexism exists, and don’t endorse using stereotypes.

In one ending, your client is found innocent the moment the evidence of his accuser’s bipolar disorder is brought to light even though her act of violence isn’t brought up as testimony, erroneously conflating mental illness with violence.

And people who would have seen their kid graduate if the experimental treatment hadn’t killed them 3 months early would also exist, is a problem.

About the right-to-try stuff:

I’m not super persuaded by the colophon defense. The entire thing is weird and they should understand why thanking a bunch of women in low income service jobs and calling them Wonder Women is not a great look.
