I'd be fine with this if people didn't weaponize the term against anyone that pisses them off. People have been doxxed/fired over the perception of being "-ist's"😉.
Heck, I've even seen prominant, well known feminists call other feminist's "anti-feminist" over a simple disagreement about alimony payouts..

My other problem is that some people will imply our society is misogynistic and all that, and I'm not saying it doesn't exist at all, but I think we also have examples of the opposite of misogyny in our society. By that I mean not the hatred of women, but the love of them..and the valuing of them and their lives, as more then men.
If you are a female in this country you're more likely to get a more lenient sentence for a crime then a man who committed the same crime would get. In this country when it comes to couples who divorce and have children, etc. we have this silly thing we do where a majority of the time we just assume the kids would be better off with the female.
If a man and a woman get in a physical fight and the cops are called and the man says the woman started it and the woman says the man started it..the woman is more likely to be believed and the man is the likely one who will get taken to prison. It's also been almost cemented in our culture that the lives of women are more important then the lives of men. Think about it, it's always the women and children people tend to think about saving first whenever something bad happens, right?
It's more acceptable for a woman to initiate violence against a men then vice versa. We have battered women's shelters all around our country, but we don't really have ANY places like that for men despite the instances of the females being the abusive ones aren't drastically less then the instances of men abusing women. We live in a society where a woman can say a man raped her and sometimes be immediately believed without any credible evidence. We live in a society where women can admit to falsely accusing people of rape and get little to no jail time for it. We live in a society where some men have actually been arrested for hitting a female despite the fact the women initiated the violence. I am not talking about a situation where two people are alone and it's one persons word against the others. I am talking about dozens of witnesses being around to witness this and the man still gets taken to jail.
In other words: both genders seem to receive "privileges" for shit based on their gender lol. It's not just women treated unfairly. This doesn't mean females don't face issues in this country, it just means they need to be put in perspective.
Also it's just plain not wrong to call a female a female. Or if it is then a man being called a male is wrong too. It is not wrong for one gender and okay for the other.
On another note I've seen PLENTY of "feminists" spewing vitrol about how all men are awful or even about how all men should die. Some of them try to play it off that they were "joking", but of course if a man said he wants all women to die and then just said it was a joke why do I get the feeling the feminists wouldn't accept that?
Also btw f*ck alimony. When two people get divorced they should split up their assets evenly. Then..that should be it. Your spouse is *not* your child, but your spouse. So when you break up then it's up to THEM to pay their own bills. Child support is one thing, grown ass adult support is another.

"As far as you're aware" ? Okay so..are you like on the cusp of the rape scene? Constantly aware of rape stats? Or what?The source is a female: Lauren Southern. Feel free to go send her a msg asking for her source. Though of course it'd be a weird stat for a female to make up. But then again as this topic has shown..females DEFINITELY can lie so yeah. But the figure she gave was 100,000-140,000 people.
You see she's all about exposing the hypocritical bullshit of feminists. Like exposing there is no rape culture and all that, I have to wonder if she was giving false info why we haven't seen a bunch of squawking feminists telling us this in order to discredit her. But like I said: females b lying, so it could be a lie. After all if they can lie about rape or hate crimes they could potentially lie about rape stats too.
Just out of curiosity, if you find out the stats she gave are true your reaction would be..what?
Good to know.
And by "as far as I am aware", I meant "I looked it up and the victims are disproportionately women".
I don't care about whatever dumb ***** on the internet you're latching onto in order to affirm your own biases, nor am I going to go try to prove your own point. If you're too stupid or lazy to do it yourself, don't make the point.

I told you my source lol. You asked me for a source and I told you.
Also here is the problem: women are sexually assaulted more. But rape isn't the only thing that falls under the definition of sexual assault.
Originally posted by SurturI did look her up. I found a twitter and a youtube account.
So in conclusion: I gave you a source, a woman well known for standing up to the feminists by bringing up various facts and stats. This is not a random youtuber, but hey okay.Maybe look up who the woman is before dismissing her? Especially when you're going to sit and call others lazy.
You say she brings up facts and statistics? Post those. Post the sources she used and cited that prove what you are saying.
The name of this woman means literally nothing to me, nor does whatever reason you seem to think she is credible. She's not credible unless she cited a source that you can link me.
You say post the things she brings up, but I just did. You asked for a source and I told you the source of the information and who said it. I don't know if she even cites links to what she says? So okay. It's not important enough for me to try to contact her to find out her sources. So like I said she could be lying, that is possible as this thread proves.
Originally posted by SurturUh, no, I asked for you to post credible sources on your claim, but you haven't done that, and I'm pretty convinced you won't at this point.

If you can't or won't provide a credible source supporting your point then don't make it. 👆

You asked for the source of the stat I gave. I told you who it was. Then I also told you that I don't think she actually cites her sources. Then I also told you it's possible she could be lying.
Personally I don't think she is, but no I don't have any way to conjure up her sources out of thin air when I don't know if she makes them available.
Originally posted by SurturThen why post things you heard from her as if they were fact?

Originally posted by SurturThe first statistic is well-documented, as is the second IIRC. The other thing? If you have no proof for that shit you probably shouldn't say it.
Because the other shit she said in the same video was fact? Like men make up 80% of suicides and that they make up nearly half the victims of domestic violence.
