Important clarification/FAQ

I am not calling to coddle or excuse the behavior of bigoted men in any way!

I am calling to be kind and understanding to young men (often ages 10-20) who are very manipulable and succeptible to the massive anti feminist propaganda machine. Hope this clarifies that very important distinction. :)

Very good comments that express key points:

    Do you realise how pathetic you sound? Women are told to shut their mouth and keep their opinions to themselves all the fucking time. It’s time for men like you to realise that sometimes yeah you should shut up and yeah your opinion is less important than the lived experience of women when it comes down to sexism and SA. Educate yourself please before you embarrass yourself even more.

    Invisible women is a great book to start. Very easy to read and full of interesting statistics.

          Oh so it’s fine when it happens the other way, gotta perpetuate the anger somehow!

          Maybe everyone should be allowed a voice and nobody should be told to shut up?

        Facts don’t care about your feelings bro

        • 91% of SA victims are women, 99% of perpetrators are men;
        • women in the EU work 70 hours per week on average vs men who work 63 hour per week (this includes paid and unpaid work, women do about 3 times as much unpaid work as men)
        • number of women in the US who face workplace discrimination is 3 times higher than men
        • women politicians in the US face 3.4 times as much threats and harassment than men
        • car seats are only tested on male dummies resulting in women being 73% more likely to get seriously injured by a car crash
        • most medicines are only tested on male animals and or humans, resulting in lower efficacy among women and causing medicines that would be beneficial to women to go undiscovered

        Once again I recommend reading the book invisible women for more interesting statistics, and an analysis on gender specific data. It turns out that gender specific data is very hard to come by, making a lot of potential other gender gaps undiscovered. Women are much more likely than men to be victims of gender specific data gaps because women were not allowed to work for a long time and women still make up only a small fraction of executives making many women specific problems to stay undiscovered.

      It’s time for men like you to realise that

      Why are you talking to a 15 year old like that?
