How Feminism Hurts Men
Not surprisingly, from the Huff Post

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/micah-j-mu...66733.html

Yesterday somebody on Facebook told me that feminism elevates women at the expense of men, that its agenda to validate women emasculates us guys.

He was right.

For men, the rise of feminism has relegated us to second-class status. Inequality and discrimination have become part of our everyday lives.

Because of feminism, men can no longer walk down the street without fear of being catcalled, harassed, or even sexually assaulted by women. When he is assaulted, the man is blamed -- the way he dressed he was "asking for it."

Because of feminism, there are no major Christian conferences about how to act like men, where thousands of men can celebrate their manliness and Jesus (and perhaps poke fun at female stereotypes).

Because of feminism, church stages and spotlights are often dominated by women. Men are encouraged to just serve in the nursery or kitchen. Sometimes men are even told to stay silent in church.

Because of feminism, women make more money than man in the same jobs.

Because of feminism, it's hard to find a movie with a heroic male lead anymore. Most blockbusters feature a brave woman who saves the world and gets a token man as a trophy for her accomplishments.

Because of feminism, women's professional sports are a massively profitable enterprise where women are globally idolized. Men only appear briefly, before commercial breaks, when they're objectified for their bodies.

Because of feminism, all birth control is covered for women without question or debate, while men have to fight to get insurance companies to pay for their Viagra prescriptions. When men do speak up about this, leaders of the "family friendly" right wing labels them "sluts" and "whores."

Because of feminism, the male body is constantly under public scrutiny. If a man appears topless on TV, it's a national scandal resulting in huge fines and boycotts. Bloggers regularly write about how we need to be more mindful of the ways our clothing choices tempt women to sin. Satirists insist that shorts "aren't really pants" and then men should cover up because "nobody wants to see that."

Because of feminism, men are not represented in the White House, and women hold over 80 percent of the seats in Congress. When a man runs for office, his physical appearance and clothing choices are discussed almost as much as his policies and ideas.

Because of feminism, men must fight for a voice in the public sphere. In issues of theology, politics, science, and philosophy, the female perspective is often considered default, normal, and unbiased. Male perspectives are dismissed for being too subjective or too emotional. When we speak up, we are often dismissed as angry, rebellious, subversive, or dangerous.

But stay strong, bros.

One day we'll all be equal.

Whatever you do, don't read Jesus Feminist. It's full of ideas that will continue to oppress and harm men -- ideas such as "women are people too" and "the dignity of and rights of women are as important as those of men".

Feminism hurts everyone except the few elite wealthy men using to further their wealth and agenda.

RE: How Feminism Hurts Men
Yawn. Feminists never create anything, only try to tear down greatness. Don't like a song/book/blog/forum/religion/law enforcement/laws/politics/gender of politicians/lack of women at the top/the wage gap/movie content/computer games/sports/birth control availability/the lack of the female body being shown(what the fuck is this one? Genuinely you feminists can't even get your hysteria consistent, either women are being objectified and sexualized from all the naked women shown in the media, or they are being shamed and told 'nobody wants to see that', it can't be fucking both)/the representation of women in politics/the lack of female perspectives in the public sphere/etc then fucking do something about it, create value, stop being perpetual worthless non-achievers. Make pop songs, make a music label, create value, write your own books, blogs, forums, create your own religion, move into law enforcement and become policemen, run for office and make laws, be politicians, vote for women(something women don't do), form voting blocs, rise to the top or elect women to the top(women voted for Obama), take on hard degrees and high risk careers while sacrificing your family life and you'll get paid more, make your own movies, create your own movie studio, runs consuming media that you feel harms you, make you own feminist computer games that will doubtlessly be huge financial successes, go to female sports, create your own market and sports leagues, or make all sports mixed gendered and have men stomp all over women, be a professional athlete, give your time giving training and coaching exclusively to young girls, create a female sport that is financially more successful than male sports in the open market, create your own insurance companies that give women free birth control(as an aside you are fully aware that men don't get free birth control, that's why you chose Viagra as an example, cause you're an intellectually dishonest scumbag, the reality is women have far superior access and options when it comes to birth control, but fuck you.)/create programs to give all women free access to birth control(all the guys in this forum are pro this by the way, the libertarians don't want to pay for it, we are happy for you feminists to put up your own cash to do so though)/be naked all the time/create your own massive global media outlets that celebrate women being topless(playboy? All porn? I really don't get this point)/create your own political party/create your own public sphere and have as many female perspectives as you want(though again with the inconsistent bullshit, either gender isn't real is all socialised in which case their is no female or male perspective, or we are different and one is superior, perhaps the free market could sort this out... Oh wait). Genuinely stop being reductive assholes constantly outraged and trying to control other people. Your offense and personal tastes mean absolutely nothing, Jack shit all, if you want the world to take a certain shape then get off your ass create that world rather than constantly complaining and shaming other people into the same non achieving, non creating, empty life you all lead.

You are literally trolling a forum created by men, for men, trying to shame us into supporting your view so that we might work to change things rather than actually changing anything yourself. You are scum, your life will pass without remark or comment, no achievement will mark the grey tedious outrage that is your pathetic hum drum existence. Fuck you.

Sorry guys - I should have made the original post more clear. I figured the "not surpringly" this is from Huff Post would have done that.

This is vomit inducing to say the least.

New account, linked the guys Twitter, and quoted a new article in it's entirety. Seems pretty suspect to me.

Yeah it was a cut and paste from Huff Po. When I clicked on the article I thought it was some of the red pill stuff we were seeing in the mainstream media spreading. But I was mistaken. Awful article. But this is the Huff post so I should have known better - hence the "not surprising" intro.

Why did you go through the extra step of hyperlinking the author's Twitter? That doesn't happen when you cut and paste.

Tuth because that's the way the page on huff post is formatted in text format. Plus it was a way to identify the author and link his twitter which I thought would be useful.

So it's because of huffpo's or/and you thought it'd be useful? Also why would it be useful?

Honestly I'm betting troll, but Tuth has a sixth sense for these things.

No troll here. Was my first post on here after waiting for a month to get approved and after reading the forum, roosh and ROK for months.

All good. My bad for any confusion.

Just use the quote tags more so it's clear what's your opinion and what's the cited article.
