I'm ok with this :D

but men are pressured to work even harder to support that kid

Male workers having children then becomes an economic benefit, as the man has to work harder

Female workers having children is an economic loss, as the worker stops working entirely.

From an financial point of view, anyways

Another reason why i'm all pro WFH policies. It gets men back in constant contact with their children and makes all the excuses a woman might make to not have to work anymore really weak.

Can't tell you how many admin responses i've gotten that said "Hate or bigotry towards men is not covered by our anti-discrimination or hate speech policies. Please read our policies before submitting a report about hate speech."

Finished the article

It's a tiny step forward.

It technically gets rid of permanent alimony, but only for new couples. Existing payers will have to go to court to have their setups adjusted, and that's not a guarantee. They just now get to have their "right to retire" considered as part of the adjustment, which it very much wasn't before.

My initial response is "about damn time"

But knowing how laws work... i want a bit more info into the specific details before celebrating

Hey brother

I'm in a similar boat as you, and watched TRP go from "this is info men need to know, and soon" to religious conservative grifters, and similarly upset about it

And then watching menslib and others get setup so men could talk in "approved" ways

But all of that makes it even more important to me not to abandon other labels to grifters. It just makes it easier for them to dissipate any momentum we might accrue for social change.

Any space that caters to feminists or feminist thinking is in no way a safe place for men, we should make that clear

hopefully this community can collect many of the castaways of the reddit ones

tbh, male centric subs were targets for admin actions far too frequently, and moving away from a corp like that can only help a community like this.

And that reveals their blatant sexism and focus on female supremacy

If i used "women" as a shorthand for a broader female-dominated system of oppression against men (like how feminism very much behaves), people might physically attack me. We have to reiterate repeatedly that feminism != women because feminism does some very nasty sexist genocidal things and blaming all women for those things would be as silly as blaming all germans for the actions of the nazi's

They don't make that distinction against men because they're actively trying to attack men, and so want all of those 'miscommunications' and 'oh i didn't mean it that way even though thats absolutely what i said' bullshitery so they can hide how outrageously sexist they are being while pretending not to be.

That's a logical fallacy. There probably should be more outrage about those things, but that doesn't change the initial situation.

It's 'funny' how you are perfectly capable of seeing this logical fallacy.... until you're doing it yourself.

The fallacy you are claiming they are making is the same one you made yourself when you waltzed in here and made it all about how hard things are for women.

I wish it was more surprising to me that this person genuinely went to "This female dominated field starts at less pay than this entirely different male dominated field, wymyn are swo oppwessed!"

    This conversation conveniently ignores how many women frequently reflect men by outright saying “you are not enough”

    In fact, if they have an audience, they’ll often do even more: “and how dare you think you were good enough to even talk to me, you creepy pervert go die”

    But to many people, even that one is the man’s fault, because as some commenters have clearly shown: everything is

    Dating is more dangerous for men than for women

    It only seems like the reverse due to your Gamma bias

    Your argument would make more sense if men weren’t dealing with all that defensive bullshit and being shit on for being single and not in some way giving their resources to a woman

    Oh and if it wasn’t illegal for them to pay for sex

    Oh and if they didn’t hear “where are all the good men” on every dating site

    Oh and if men weren’t statistically provably in more danger at all times women complain to be (you didn’t provide sources either, when you gave them a pass for treating all men like shit out of their own delusional fears)

    So, if it weren’t for a little thing called reality, you’d have an excellent point!

    Well maybe if men weren’t almost entirely responsible for dealing with rejection, and women dealt with some of it, then it wouldn’t be an issue?

    Seriously tho, it’s hilarious to watch a woman complain about how badly men take rejection.

    I’d bring up some stories of how women handle it, but you can Google the damage they cause on your own. And that’s with them dealing with <1% of what men are expected to deal with

    In case you were wondering why all your advice sounded outrageously sexist when you read it back to yourself 😁
