Some men would rather die than to empathize with a woman.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I don't think it's that they don't want to empathize so much as that they are unable to do so, largely due to upbringing and a male-centric society.

You may be right. It's a shame that this is a division we've yet to collectively overcome.

Also some women, what's your point?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That men are really bad at trying not make everything about men. What's yours?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That it's obviously a problem with some people and not just one of the sexes. Get outta here with your misandry. We're all bored with it.

I couldn't care less what you're bored with. Ignoring problems doesn't solve them. Just fuck off and keep your mouth shut if you're so bored with people calling you out for being a misogynist.

One day you'll understand, but right now you are calling all the male members of your family rapists. I have a feeling you don't have children but if you did, well...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

No I'm not. I will say all men are capable of rape, especially those who don't listen to or respect women. Amongst any other issues men will shrug off because it hurts their feelings. If you have an issue with that, it's a personal problem.

Where I'm from only men are capable of rape in legalese. So to me your first statement is obviously correct and yet creates the lie.

Also you just said your son(future?) is a rapist.

It creates a vacuum where men (even male children) are not seen as victims, and provokes hostility.

I absolutely have a problem with the way women can be treated within society yet I can see that it is within a bigger problem of general dissatisfaction. If you help create strong and confident men, you get less creeps.

The sooner we realise that both sexes together can work to solve this horrid issue, the better. That starts with much less generalised finger pointing.

Wish you all the best.
