      Women in Afghanistan are not allowed to speak or be seen through windows.

      Is there are a country where men are treated the same?

      Edit: Wow. Imagine if y’all get as upset about rape and femicide as you did about sometimes women being a little snotty to men online.

            Person A: Vague, sexist generalizations deserve rude answers.

            Person B: WHAT ABOUT WOMEN IN AFGHANISTAN?!

            So, what about women’s treatment in Afghanistan disproves the claim “Vague, sexist generalizations deserve rude answers”?

            Do vague, sexist generalizations not deserve rude answers because of the treatment of women in Afghanistan?

            Maybe if women were treated better in Afghanistan then vague sexist answers would be more deserving of rude answers?.. Or would they be less deserving?

            Are you a bot? Because nothing that you typed makes any sense, at all, in this context.

      not if those generalizations are against men. they’re already privileged by the patriarchy, so it cancels out

      edit: this got a lot more attention than I anticipated so

      1. thanks for the (You)s and lulz
      2. be reminded that the vast majority of leftists disagree with what I said. my talking points shouldn’t be mistaken for and/or held against leftist viewpoints

          Non exaggerated non explicit comments without enough context deserve to be taken seriously. Sadly.

              O shit you were serious?? Thabks for misinterpreting my comment btw. Let me correct that for you.

              sadly I have to take a comment justifying sexist generalizations on men because males have more privileges compared to most other groups seriously.

              It’s not the part about men having more priviledges that people are having issues with, it’s the part that THAT somehow excuses being sexist against men.

                if males get disadvantaged, they’re getting closer to the same level as everyone else, thus increasing egality

                  By disadvantaged, do you mean removal of privilege or wanton sexism? Because the latter is the point the others want to clear up.

                  The words you use are good, but the context is bad.

        Women are privileged by the patriarchy in some ways too, so I guess misogyny’s back on the menu, right? /s

        Dumb misandrist.

          Are there places so privileged where women have harems of male sex slaves? Is there a country with organized matriarchy?

          calling out that males have privileges, which women and people of the LGBTQQIAAP+ community do not have, is misandry

              Yeah how DARE people make memes! That’s definitely the same as taking away someone’s bodily autonomy!

                I can’t tell whose views you’re trying to parody because that doesn’t align with either half of the discussion.

                Okay.

                Do you think that’s relevant to determining whether or not you’re being misandrist?

                Or are you just defending your misandry by saying people who are attacked less deserve to be attacked?

                  I’m not misandrist. I just want everyone to have the closest level of privilegation possible

                    You’re a crab in a bucket, pulling at other crabs to ensure they’re treated poorly because someone else is rather than encouraging others to treat each other well.

                    By pretending, or worse, believing that the best way to a better society is by making things worse for certain groups, you have more in common with misogynists than anyone else.

                    Your attitude is used as ammunition by the far right to convince impressionable people that feminists are inherently hostile and unreasonable, and if women are elevated in society, they will immediately use any gained power to attack men.
