I honestly don’t think it has anything to do with objectivity - linguistics or else - people

Damn Stockholm syndrome.
Same experience. He said I was sexually manipulative and trying to appeal to his masculinity to get him on “my side” (whatever that means). I was 13, and the reason I was here was ED and OCD therapy after years of sexual abuse. He could not have said something worse if he tried.
False Apology 101
So why is it still in the poll? If it's a mistake, you just take it out, and ta-dah, fixed. And you still have a few days to finish the poll. This apology is pointless, and they're just going to have to apologise again when giving the results, "because it wasn't supposed to be there".
It may be "women's common sense" but you need facts in a debate. Karl just gave us that. Next time anybody wants to use that in a debate, there won't be a vague "everybody knows women in the media are more judged on their apparence" that any MRA can easily brush off, pretend it's in your head or give examples full of…
In 1976, a young Dustin Hoffman was shooting one of the biggest movies of his career - Marathon Man. (...) To put himself in the mindset of a man losing control Hoffman didn't sleep for days at a time and let his body become disheveled and unhealthy. Finally, after all this work Hoffman notices his co-star Sir…
I think a lot of people would give that sort of answer to a "woman's job". From 3 years old to 100+.
I'm feeling stupid feeling grateful for your post. Because your attitude should be normal. Yet, I'm more used to "you're exaggerating" type of comments so this feels like a nice change.
Anyone who keeps trying and goes oops is a fucking rapist, pure and simple.
I am not appointing myself judge and jury and sentencing the alledged rapist, am I? Making the road to prosecution more emotionally difficult than it already is, by victim-blaming and publicly calling bullshit (when the rates of false allegations in cases of sexual assault are ridiculously low) a story as difficult to…
You obviously don't know what victim-blaming is. Victim-blaming is refusing to see someone as a (somewhat idealised version of a) victim. That can mean either knowing that person is a victim but still blaming them because you somewhat feel they provoked the situation (yeah it happened but you deserved it, I call it…
Everytime Kate is chosen as a role model for young women, I die a little bit inside. Never even starting a career (and letting the above average education goes to waste) in order to wait 10 years for a ring is the perfect "Do not" advice I would tell any woman, young or otherwise.
That's exactly my stance on the whole thing. Policing someone's emotions is nasty and a sure trip to insanity. You can't really understand yourself and learn from what's happening to you if you deny feelings the "good sense" or a particular religion tell you are not healthy for you. Feelings don't care if they are…
"There is a strong reason to believe that when called on the phone asked about a sexual violence survey, those who experienced sexual violence will be more likely to participate to make their voice heard."
And I bet a large part of that abuse "against men" is tales and jokes about mothers, as heard in every online game. If you count that, I can maybe imagine you didn't pull that study from your own ass (yet I still doubt it can top the total of dick pics, fat-shaming, slut-shaming, rape threats etc.). One little problem…
Because they have brains, you know, that stuff allowing humans (when they're amenable to use it) to understand and think about complicate theories and abstractions, as well as extrapolate and investigate (think around missing informations)? Which is what's differencing human intelligence and artifical intelligence,…
But that's assuming there is related pain (rather than pointing toward it). There is such a thing as "lack of experience", talking about things that can't be grounded in any related pain because there is no relation with past experiences. I heard the "suicidees are cowards" argument from a few people. Hell, I thought…
That would mean everything we do and say make sense and are consistent with our long-term mental state. It doesn't. We do and say stupid things in the spark of a moment, without it always being a indication of long-term suffering, or long-term anything. Didn't sleep well, hangry, lack of knowledge, or just didn't…
Oh yeah, I have a habit of being a bit too cynical and jumping on the conclusion that if it sounds like a jerk, it's probably a jerk. But yeah, maybe it's a zebra.
