If this current moment and this society existed in a vacuum where everyone was already equal with zero other factors involved and without taking history into account, I'd agree that equal measures should be taken. But centuries of subjugation and the continued attitude - however subtle or overt - is an everyday thing…

What the hell do you think a movement IS then? He's advocating a movement to go against the vast majority, which is exactly what you said!

The problem is that the MRAs who have actual valid points aren't doing anything to discourage the "#masculism" whiners who think they're owed vagina and that's what inequality means. I'd absolutely respect the ideals of men who want rights that apply only to their gender if it weren't for the fact that they're simply…

Did you read any of this story? His plan was to slaughter an entire sorority. Fortunately he didn't get that far. Had he succeeded in murdering all the women he wanted to (he had over 400 unspent rounds), you wouldn't be making this point because it wouldn't exist. But guess what? If that were the case, dozens of…

You're missing the point. The ones who are defending him and spouting the "Not ALL men" rhetoric are the same MRAs people are talking about. Race doesn't enter into it unless you wedge it in there. A misogynist is a misogynist. MRAs and PUAs are just different parts of the spectrum.

When there is a subculture that is promising more deaths if they don't get laid, that's objectively terrorism.

It also vilifies mental illness, which is harmless in most people. His problem was a combination of rampant misogyny and mental illness, along with a ridiculous sense of entitlement. Neither on its own makes a person mass-murder a specific type of people. There are mentally ill people who suffer from the same things…

I feel like this article needs a followup already, unfortunately, because whenever I search for #YesAllWomen I'm honestly seeing more MRA bullshit backlash than support for women.

I... I don't understand. It's a video game adaptation and it isn't terrible. what is happening oh god my whole world is crumbling

You know what, we had a female Jack Bauer and her name was Renee, and she was badass and hot and awesome, and they killed her like they kill everyone else in that damn show.

Maybe ZeniMax can keep Facebook out of this if it succeeds then.

I am a man and I demand an apology for men being mildly oppressed for a few seconds.

So did you read "Shit My Dad Says" and get offended because YOUR dad doesn't say that?

And yet, Pacific Rim fails Bechdel, but it would pass if the Bechdel Test were about race rather than gender: A person of color has several conversations with another person of color about something that isn't a white man. But it gets criticized by people waving the Bechdel flag because despite having arguably the…

People treat it like it is. Constantly. If you don't think people use it as literally a pass/fail test on whether or not a movie has any merit, you're not paying attention.

The TWILIGHT SAGA passes Bechdel. ALL of it.

Ehh, as a former OKC user, I have to say that it's not simply "fat" that's the problem. I want to be clear here: When I was using the site, I made a point to mention in my profile that I run, I go to the gym, I do yoga, and I eat well, and I didn't want to date anyone who doesn't take care of themselves in the same…

I, too, enjoy being called racial and homophobic slurs by 12 year olds just because I beat them fairly.

Stop shitting yourself. Stop shitting yourself. Stop shitting yourself.

At least wait for the third one and see what we're getting first. I for one have been waiting to see Smaug's attack on the lake town since I was a kid, and I won't have fanedits shredding that to ribbons and taking that away from me dammit.
