It's a intresting view on how we value the different genders.. And if you're predisposed to female underwear it's probably not going to push you away from your crossdressing self.

edit: she's actually very critical of mainstream feminism.

Our swedish feminists should listen to that, I mean it would be fun to see their reactions.
Many of them would blow a fuse I'm sure.

Shared it with some friends who tend towards that perspective, it's going to be fun to see them explode.

Is this some sort of Betty Friedan type of deal? I can't watch it at work, I'm asking so I know whether or not it's worth checking out when I get home.

It's pro equality but more or less against feminism as a whole.. It's actually a big f'kin fist in the face of feminism.

This.

One of my favorite parts was when she talked about the reaction to the increase in work-related injuries for women. There was an outcry that 'something must be done' as this was unacceptable.

It turned out that women's injuries had NOT increased. What had happened was that so many men had lost their jobs due to the recession that the number of injuries to men had decreased so significantly that the ratio of injuries between men/women had changed.

And 9 months later, the woman is disposable too, in fact, 19 out of 20 women only need to exist for about 14 years, biologically speaking right? One woman can take care of about 20 kids in the proper setting. We've got formula so breast milk is unnecessary too...

Obviously my remark is sarcastic, attempting to show the futility of the "biologically speaking" argument in an era of human existence where the extinction of the species is not reliant on biological imperatives as it might have thousands of years ago.



As I watched the video linked in the OP, I kept thinking about the phrase: "There are no atheists in foxholes", and I wondered how many feminists there would be in foxholes too, or how many feminists might be on the deck of a sinking ship rather than in the life boats...

I value women and men equally but I place mothers of young kids a bit higher

I find working with men and women is about equal. Not all women are emotional criers at work. I've had lots of women bosses too and they've all been good and fair. It depends on the person not the gender

So far as I can tell Women in the military have a different set of standards. If I voiced my concerns it would seem like whining from those who don't have a first hand account.

Like it or not the reality is that certain unpleasant tasks will always fall on the shoulders of men.

Not because we're the only ones that should do them, but because we're the only ones who can/will. We are bigger, stronger and more aggressive. Men, in general, will always be better suited for certain tasks than women. And women will be better suited for certain tasks than men.

The genders are different, and we have different roles. That's how it is.

Its good men and women are different. Some radical feminists between both genders are basically the same and its only environment like forcing little girls to like pink, dolls, and unicorns that makes them that way.

There are often many atheists in foxholes. Especially as soldiers try to justify the horrors of war with a supposedly just and loving god. grin

I was watching a WWII special and the phrase "there are no athiest in a foxhole" was brought up and a POW responded "POW camps are full of atheist."

That always amused me.

Most feminists do not want to either live completely sexless lives or become Whores of Babylon, despite what FoxNews wants you to believe. Most just want to be seen as people first, where their brains or hearts are more important than their genitalia. It's a shocking topic, I know.

As an aside, I do not understand why any male would ever object to women getting to have more sex. Well, unless that male were pig or cowboy .

And so begins the shaming language.

An interesting statement, but utterly irrelevant to the idea that the lives and interests of men are considered to be disposable.

Oh I've got not issue with that, and am far from railing against it. I just object to the continued selective double standard that says men are disposable and women should in every other way be considered identical but should not be considered disposable.

I'm pretty happy with general equality, all things considered and recognize the biology as well or better than anyone. I just think it takes a particular brand of ignorance to advocate equality in every aspect except for the societal consideration of the value of the life of one sex over the life of another.

Yep, that's the standard reply. The sad thing is that the guys with the "shaming language" as you put, think they're being "manly" or "masculine" but in reality they are just as bad or worse than the feminists.

Agreed. It is utterly irrelevant to the discussion - that's the intent of this and of all the language like this - to turn the discussion into something it's not with a spurious correlation, again, as part of the effort to discredit one side of the argument.

Society functions better when there are more females than males.

Having a large population of useless males is a problem. It is often self correcting, but the aftermath can be ugly.

Really - setting aside prostate cancer, what significant sex based natural selection paradigms do you see acting on the population that aren't socially derived and which don't have a correlating equivalent or nearly so for the other sex?

Men are more aggressive than women.

They are more likely the commit violent crimes, or pursue careers where violence is part of their job.

Our nation has been engaged in a prolonged armed conflict, and it looks like the future is filled with even more wars.

Wars that will be fought predominantly by males.

War is what happens when you have a lot of useless males. Then there is a baby boom after you win a war and your strongest males come back to a horny and lonely female heavy population.

Then the cycle repeats.

That's human nature.

Those are all social paradigms, not natural ones.

Further the baby boom wasn't so much about coming back from a war, it was the culmination of 15 or 20 years - an entire generation's worth of hardship in America coming to an end. Remember the Great Depression was a major issue just prior to WW2.

Social paradigms are part of our nature. We are social animals.

15-20 years of depression which meant you had a surplus of useless males. Then you have a huge war, and suddenly had a lot less useless males.

Then things got better.

Then you have a baby boom and 18 years later you have a surplus of useless males then you have Korea and Vietnam.

Now the Millennials are coming of age, also known as the Echo Boomers, and what's happening?

More war. It's not a coincidence.

We are social animals with the ability to change our sociology and to change the social constructs with which we live and/or tolerate. We are not entirely slaves to our "nature".

She misses something very important...

Men are given the choice to be disposable. I dont care what is written about in stories.. Men treat other men as disposable too. Women are seen as disposable as well.

Its only in stories that a man will die in order to save the life of a random stranger (lifeboat example). I wouldnt give up my seat for a stranger..id pull her out of the lifeboat to save myself, most of us would do that. If we as a society cared about women and children first we wouldnt bomb afghanistan into the stoneage(hurting the wesk the most).

I disagree with her point of view.

The only problem with modern women is that men as a whole are mot modern yet either. Men need to modernize to match womens new world view.

The reason we protect women is not because they have the egg and men have sperm so one man can impregnate a thousand women... Its because our children require long term upbringing. If we had children that matured in 1 day then we'd treat women as 100% equal.. The way fish are. Women need to stay in the nest long term to raise the children..so we have a society around maintainging it.

Most feminists do not want to either live completely sexless lives or become Whores of Babylon, despite what FoxNews wants you to believe. Most just want to be seen as people first, where their brains or hearts are more important than their genitalia. It's a shocking topic, I know.

As an aside, I do not understand why any male would ever object to women getting to have more sex. Well, unless that male were pig or cowboy .


I gave her 3 minutes. She's full of shit. Most of her examples of disposable males are examples of women being infantilized.

Feminism is about equal respect for both genders. Her entire premise is based on the hypothetical of the "lifeboat" situation. Whereas actual questions regarding unequal pay, unequal opportunities and such are based on real numbers and real statistics.

These lifeboat examples kind of prove that women are inferior. Ive walked right on by a homeless woman with her child. I dont give a crap about her. Clearly in my book, she and her child do not come before me.

She is nuts to think that i would let myself drown a painful death just so she can be on the lifeboat. If a bunch of people denied my passage on the lifeboat, theyd have to murder me... Id fight for my survival. Id probably only die to protect my children but i cant say for sure that id suicide for that purpose until im in that situation.

It's pro equality but more or less against feminism as a whole.. It's actually a big f'kin fist in the face of feminism.


It's not pro equality. It rejects dealing with actual inequality with reams of data to back it up in favor of dealing with strawmen and hypotheticals.

She's antifeminist, and her argument is made on behalf of being anti-feminist, not pro-equality.

MRA's are assholes.

If it's anything like the meltdown here on the OP amongst the feminists, it should be a fkn laugh riot.

Here's a hint for you Remedial...

Feminists are not the same as those who advocate equality.

I agree. Probably only 80% of self-identified feminists advocate for equality. But that's much better than the ~3% of MRA's who advocate for equality.

Words! You should learn to use them better.
