I still think that many people underestimate just how many women would actually have more empathy for men if they were truly aware of what men go through

I recently saw an increased number of women saying that they truly didn't realise what men go through on a regural basis and it made me think about how there is probably a lot more women who actually have no idea what issues men face and are simply ignorant.

Now I fully understand that there are plenty of the actually fascist female feminists who fully understand what they're doing and want society to stay the way it is so they can keep benefiting from it.

But I still think a lot of people underestimate how many of them are women who simply bought into all of the propaganda considering it's everywhere, In Schools, in the media, in literature and on social media where algorhitms are in many cases more likely to show feminist content to women that paints a one sided picture that makes it seem like not being taken seriosuly in leadership roles is the worst thing that can ever happen to someone.

So I still think there is a chance to take some of these women out of the movement and that we should differentiate between those feminists and the actually fascist ones.

Washington state: this is a state that I would suggest never living in. They(state government) do everyone dirty.

Got into an argument one night back in 2020 with my ex she takes my daughter leaves. I haven’t had any contact with my daughter since because of hearsay in the state of Washington granting no contact orders for this so-called woman yeah I live 2200 miles away and the state wants to grant a no contact order saying that she feels unsafe while I’m over here in Indiana and have started a whole new life. She doesn’t want any contact with my daughter happening yet she’s always concerned about child support and has the state over here. Demanding I pay child support or they’re gonna put me in custody and on top of that. The state has a new fee for dealing with child support so one state wants to keep me from seeing my daughter by granting no contact orders for some woman I give no shit about and the other wants me to pay for a child that I’m not able to see.

Can someone put this into context for me to where it makes sense?

"I agree with you that female on male violence is equally wrong. I disagree with you that it would be at the same systemic scale as male on female violence."

Found this quote on Reddit just earlier. WTF. I know I rant about this sort of thing often, but just how in the Hell is male-on-female violence on a "systemic scale?" Implying that somehow male violence is a law and every man/boy is supposed to be violent against any female. I know I shouldn't be upset by random internet morons like this who spout this sort of drivel, but damn. Just when you think someone can't be more ignorant and stupid. Somehow the fact this person acknowledges female on male violence but then claims it's not "systemic" like it's counterpart in some ways is even worse than denying it since this person is basically making it out to be a non-issue and not something that's of concern. I hate this, always making things into a competition between the genders and throwing around stupid terms like "systemic." It's so infuriating and frustrating.

I’m an ugly 39M guy and women are getting vindictive towards me for declining to be their backup plan.

I get that I am ugly but I am entering into a a situation I never would had thought of.

I’m ugly BUT I am a good man with a good career. Have my own house, nice car, etc.

I haven’t really dated and pretty much have sworn it off entirely.

Oddly enough, I am getting approached by women now. But it’s not what you think. All these women are not interested in me, they’re interested in my resources. They view me as a security backup plan.

The problem is, I think these women are shocked that I decline being a “backup” entirely. I think to them, a ugly guy like me is easy pickings for them since they think I would gladly sign up but when I don’t even entertain the idea and respond with “thank you but I am going to decline” has lead these women to go all out to destroy me personally, financially and even one legally.

I haven’t slept with any of these women, never even dated them or anything. Just me saying “no” to take interest has led to lash out.

I have had 2 women so far accuse me of horrible things even though I never interacted with them in a non professional way. No dates, no anything yet these women completely fabricated stories up about our interactions, interactions that we never had.

One was completely caught lying specifically with a text saying “a guy like him needs to get punished thinking he can say no.”

What’s going on? I am getting very bothered by this childish mentality. It’s women my age specifically.

I might be ugly but it doesn’t mean I am willing to sign up for anything I can get. I have a lot of self respect for myself.

I am not sure if any other guy has been experiencing this or it’s just me?

Can Someone Please Explain to Me How the Modern Term "Patriarchy" Is Not a Form of Hate Speech?

I'm asking this question seriously and in good faith.

I'm here in part researching and connecting how certain words evolve over time. Many begin with a literal, historical, or technical meaning before developing broader colloquial meanings once they enter public discourse.

What interests me about patriarchy is that it appears to have undergone exactly that process.

Historically, the word referred to systems of male authority, paternal lineage, or social structures in which fathers and male relatives held formal power. Whether one agrees with the concept or not, it described a particular social arrangement.

Today, however, the term is often used far more broadly. In everyday discussion, people attribute a wide range of social problems, religious doctrines, sacred interpretations, institutions, attitudes, behaviors, and outcomes to "the patriarchy."

That expansion is where I'm at.

Many of the norms now described as patriarchal were historically transmitted through religion, law, custom, family structure, inheritance rules, moral codes, marriage expectations, and claims about divine order. They were not always presented merely as “what men wanted.” They were often presented as what God wanted, what nature required, what tradition demanded, or what society depended on.

So when modern discourse says “patriarchy,” what exactly is being named?

Is it "all men"? Is it #NotAllMen? Is it fathers? How about religion? Is it law? Is it custom? Is it a ratio of some sorts?

Supporters of the concept often argue that patriarchy refers to a system of gendered oppression, not to men as individuals.

I understand that answer in theory. But I am not seeing that distinction survive contact with public discourse.

If a term absorbs religion, law, culture, family hierarchy, sexual morality, economics, and social expectation, but is still linguistically rooted in male authority and fatherhood, then it seems reasonable to ask whether the term carries more demographic weight than its defenders acknowledge.

My concern is that patriarchy has evolved beyond its original analytical meaning. In practice, it often speaks to a natural fear of one particular gender and a natural defensiveness in another. Fear can become contempt, contempt can become hatred and so on.

Public discourse today already appears increasingly characterized by gender polarization, mutual suspicion, and competing narratives of grievance. Whether "the patriarchy" contributed to these developments is debatable, but they do raise the question of how the term is actually being received outside academic contexts.

If a concept consistently produces those dynamics, is it functioning solely as an analytical framework, or is it also functioning as a form of group-directed blame?

So then: at what point does a structural concept become an indictment of a demographic group?

If many of the harms now attributed to patriarchy were historically enforced through religious institutions, sacred texts, legal codes, and cultural traditions, why does the moral focus so often settle on a term that sounds, to many people, like an accusation against men?

Again, I understand the standard response: “Patriarchy is a system, not men.”

But my question is whether that distinction remains meaningful once the term leaves academic settings and enters journalism, politics, education, social media, and everyday conversation.

If large numbers of people hear “men” when others say “patriarchy,” should that matter?

And if large portions of what we call patriarchy were historically justified through religion, law, and inherited moral systems, does the term clarify responsibility, or does it deflect it?

I'm interested in thoughtful responses from people who support the concept as well as those who criticize it. Full disclosure, yes I am seeking opinions form many different subs. I hope all is well with each of you!

Trying to create a local Men's group

Hi, everyone. I'm trying to create a local men's (free) support group in Philadelphia. But I have no idea how to advertise it in today's world. I put up flyers at a local school-turned-mini-mall's bulletin board. But they were taken down within days. Any ideas besides Facebook?

Hii I'm a a lifelong Feminist looking to gain a greater understanding of the concerns men have and how we can work together. I was thinking of starting a groupchat so I can hear your experiences?

As the title said, my name is Imogen I'm 25 and have believed in feminism as long as i have been socially aware. The form I have always practiced is effectively promoting equity and fair treatment of women by tackling gendered and sexist thoughts/practices/behaviours etc. I also believe we should tackle issues that affect men predominantly too, and that's not incompatible with how i practice feminism. But to me, it's important to recognise both have unique challenges that require a focused approach. So if anyone would like to know more, just as i do with this group, please let me know 🥰

Father's Day

I am glad to see that father's day has been acknowledged a good bit this year (more than most years, I feel).


I've seen really sweet father's day ads in sainsburys (a supermarket). I've heard so many people talk about it. They had a bbq event for it today in a park in my town. They mentioned it a fair bit in the world cup broadcast today on UK TV (mind you, the woman mentioning it on the broadcast did manage to find a way to make it ultimately probably more or as much about herself). Despite that last part, I'm pleasantly surprised to see far more appreciation for father's this year than I can ever personally recall seeing.

Is "Women And Girls" Hate Speech?

I've said before numerous times how I hate the "women and children" rhetoric and narrative for how it's blatantly misandrist and exclusionary of men, not only de-valuing their lives but also infantalizing women. However in recent times the phrase has now morphed to "women and girls" and there's just something truly infuriating and cruel about how not even boys are having their rights and safety taken into account, and it's made out that not even a boy who's just learning to live in the world matters. A boy can be a victim of a crime or can even die, and what happened to him apparently won't even matter and his family's grief and sorrow won't be an issue. I despise it so much. It's bad enough for so long men have been treated as not mattering if anything bad happens to them, but now for that to extend to young boys? That's just something truly evil about that.

It might be a stretch to call "women and girls" hate speech, but it sure doesn't promote inclusivity and fairness for sure. It's like being male makes your life worthless and not worth caring about, and it's no major problem if something bad happens.

Wired Magazine Sexismojournalling article: Meet the Sad Wives of AI - Are you married to a man who’s obsessed with AI? I’m so, so sorry.

https://www.wired.com/story/meet-the-sad-wives-of-ai/

Here is how feminism is the new sexism. The article analyzses a real phenomenon, it exists, but only from the perspective of a woman married to a man that has this problem.

On top of that, there are ZERO considerations on what may have led the poor man to be "obsessed with AI". There however a lot of one-sided explanations and ramblings about stereotypes:

>Their partners, meanwhile, have quietly taken on a second job: emotional support. Chief Existential Officer, uncompensated. No one asked us if we wanted the gig.

I learned to speak english through reading the advanced magazines, Wired being one. It's disgusting to see journalism resorting to cheap stereotype regurgitation of sexistic ideas. Sexismojournalism. See? I invented a word too.

The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted

The idea that men somehow have power over women in today's society is so stupid when you look at the fact that everywhere, except the small handful of countries where women are not exempt from military service, the few countries where women are not allowed to vote, the few absolute monarchies that exist today and dictatorships, it's women who are allowed to vote and can therefore choose pro-war policies yet men arre the ones who will get drafted as women are simply exempt.

It's so tiring having to listen to that point being made when it can be so easily refuted.

Burnham after Starmer: One sh*tbag replacing another.

I'm very glad to see Starmer leave but it's a shame Burnham is disproportionately gynocentric as well.


I don't think there is any combination of public figure I hate more than a super gynocentric man. With that combination, boys and men get to enjoy endless demonization and misandrist policies, while some feminists somewhere still thinking they're justified in saying that Andy Burnham being PM means we live in a patriarchy.


Oh my god, how I would love to have female MRAs as PMs. We'd get to whinge endlessly about matriarchy while also having everyone in power wrapped around our finger. That'd be some privilege.

Hello friends!

I really hope this isn't too much of a hot potato, but I got to thinking after I read this post and some of the comments thereof: https://www.reddit.com/r/MensRights/comments/1ud7mn0/nyt_runs_bearded_women_can_replace_dads_propaganda/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=2&utm_content=share_button

Are transsexual men welcome to participate in this sub? Or is it only for "men born men" (equivalent of TERFs, perhaps)?

Obviously individuals in the community will have their own opinions regarding gender identity, which is completely fine and understandable. But I just wanted to make sure of the overall position of the subreddit (if there is one).

Thanks kindly!
