This is very unfair. A conversation about disingenuous men acting in bad faith by drawing attention to men’s issues at the expense of women’s issues is precisely the place where feminist men should be making their voices heard. I am exhausted by the fact that any time women’s inequality is discussed there are men

Good to hear. Keep up the good work.

Yes. Exactly. Thank you.

What in God’s name is Richard Dawkins doing in this movie?

Haven’t seen it.

You’ve done absolutely nothing wrong, and it’s a shame some people here have piled up on you. I’m sorry to say you’ve come to the wrong site for a respectful, nuanced conversation about how gender harms everyone. Feminists can be assholes too. Feminists can be bullies. Feminists can have itchy trigger fingers. It’s

No. This is not an example of a man wading into a conversation about abuse of women, or trafficking, or sexism at work and saying “what about menz”. This is a conversation about sexist men arguing for men’s rights in bad faith so as to maintain the status quo of oppression. That is exactly the conversation during

It is, by definition, discriminatory, though it’s a pretty trivial example, obviously. But you know... micro-aggressions and all that. Besides, like all discrimination, it cuts both ways, assigning roles in either direction. Giving women free entry to clubs is about sexualizing and objectifying them. I don’t really

It’s exactly the time. Mocking good men who believe in equality but are sensitive to the ways gender bullshit harms men is not a good idea. They should be empathized with and understood. The alternative is that the only men having the conversation are the MRAS.

I agree with him. And you kind of make the point perfectly. Gender narratives hurt everyone, and those men who argue that that’s not okay in good faith shouldn’t be ridiculed for ‘male tears’ or ‘mansplaining’ or any other rhetorical devices that have their origins in dealing with misogynistic dick-bags but have

I think this campaign is scary bullshit, but I’m still very surprised to see someone on this site saying they expect a man to pay for their dinner. What the fuck?

I mean. It should be on the woman’s terms and the man’s terms. It should be on everybody’s terms. No sex should be happening that is not on both parties terms.

Right. Somehow I don’t think we’ll be hearing the 82 percent of sex addicts were sexually abused in childhood statistic over the course of the narrative.

I know! She’s so relatable and fresh! You are the target audience. Enjoy the movie.

The one making the joke about having guys up her ass isn’t the sex addict.

Maybe it’s the marketing, but this seems smug as fuck.

Calling out a shithead, especially an abusive shithead who has broken the law, is certainly appropriate. However, the question of whether this particular shithead is, in fact, a shithead, much less whether he is guilty of rape, remains unsettled for a great many people.

While this story interests me I could not read past the wankery of that first paragraph.

Don’t you worry. The ring may not have made you invisible, but aging will soon enough.

The “fuck me” opener and all caps at the end really make this post.
