  • Misogyny happens everywhere, but it doesn’t help fight it when calling the public misogynists because they didn’t support a dreadful candidate. A man can be a dreadful candidate, and so can a woman.

    The degradation of women’s rights is down to failure of the Democrats to maintain balance in the supreme court. It also represents RBGs inability to step aside when Democrats were in power. Supreme Court justices should have some decency, retire at say 67, and allow a new generation to come along. Clinging on until 87 was insanely risky as you certainly need 5 to 10 years leeway to navigate out on your terms. RBG was eulogised, but her clinging to her seat undermined a careers work and any progress on women’s rights amongst other core rights.



  • UK citizen here. Already had 3 women prime ministers.

    It wasn’t that Hilary was a woman, simply she was more dislikable than Liz Truss and seemed to put nothing out to convince people to vote for her. It wasn’t clear at all what she stood for or what her platform was.

    It came across as entitled and like she took the electorate for granted. No matter how great or good you think you are, or how bad your rival is, you still have to ask the electorate to lend you their vote.



  • Ultimately, relationships often depend on it. Many men in my life are fine and comfortable when I express vulnerability or weakness. Though when I do in relationships, it often goes sideways. Decision making, certainty and very positively received. Alongside that, recent relationships respond positively as they prefer a submissive role.

    The woman in my life have generally maintained this type of role.

    For further clarification, physical violence hasn’t been required or welcome in adult life. Barely seen a usage since school.





  • I was the men’s conversation I want to see, by challenging negative content. It was removed on grounds 3 and 4.

    “Build upon content in the original post”. If the post does not fit in with the sub, we cannot follow rule 3 without challenging it. By deleting the challenge, you are preventing us following rule 3. I understand moderation, but this is too heavy handed, and you’re just pushing people away. Is this supposed to be a community, or a mod pinboard that consumers respond to?

    If I crosspost from reddit, from a subreddit not related to this content, it would rightly be removed, and I think relevance is important. Which it is described as a feminist community, it is about men’s lib and should be relevant to that.


  • I understand this sub is run by feminists, and fair enough, but is this related to men’s liberation at all? I would assume it would go on a community called feminism, but the whole focussing on negative male traits is the opposite of men’s liberation, surely?

    If you want to get through to guys, focus more on content related to what guys would be interested rather than the regular diet of “guys are bad”, as you’ll just push people away who don’t completely agree with you, then you’re just preaching to choir.




  • “She told the Sunday Telegraph extra money for public services would have to come from economic growth.”

    So no money for public service improvements. They are saying they will do no different to the Tories. So they are happy with the state of almost collapse in the NHS and people waiting on trollies in corridors in winter.

    Celebrating this and that they are getting backed by big business. If you are paid and your decisions are based on that, isn’t that corruption. Celebrating being corrupt? How is this attractive to anyone, left or right?
