I hate that I have to raise a son in an environment that is becoming so hateful towards men just for existing. I saw a picture of a woman at a protest against a child molester and she had a sign that says "not all men but it's ALWAYS a man" As someone who was molested by a woman when I was a kid, that shit is offensive and aggressive.
The down votes say it all. This shit is why its hard to get men onto the left.
Exactly. You have one side that doesn't give a shit about men's issues and demonizes them for it and the other side that also doesn't give a shit about men's issues but gives the occasional lip service or pretends to listen on occasion.
Neither is a good choice, but one is not openly hostile, and that makes it easy to fall that way.
Damn, I can't tell if this is honest or some really deep cutting sarcasm/satire.
Edit: the autism got me again
You could not have proven their point more strongly if you tried.
Fact is, even if it was "always a man", the fact of the matter is that the vast, vast majority of men don't do it, making the assumptions about men not only immoral, but inaccurate.
White supremacists use the exact same logic, pointing at crime statistics, to justify prejudice toward black people. This is the male sex version of "around blacks never relax", nothing more, don't pretend otherwise.
I'm a man, I'm not a rapist. In fact I'm the survivor of childhood sexual abuse. It's absurdly offensive to me to be called the thing I hate most, an rapist. And I hate that I'm fair game at being called that, simply because I was born the "bad gender".
The thing is I like being a man, I'm proud to be a man, I'm happy with my life. but even saying that makes people look at you weird. I have no idea why.
Yeah, modern narratives basically teach men to hate themselves. I drank the Kool aid until my early 20s until I dated a narcissists and came to the realization that abusive pieces of shit come in all genders. And then when I need to turn to look for a role model there is nothing out there except right wing douche bags. Then we worry why young men gravitate towards the alt right.
