Women are taught to instantly blame men when they are caught being whores because society will instantly coddle them as blameless victims. There’s a reason rape fraud is egregiously higher (~400%) IN TRIAL than every other “violent crime”. This doesn’t even begin to count the amount of fraudulent reports that are tossed aside because rape is now a buzzword for a bad date.
It helps that rape doesn't need proof beyond somebody's word to get pretty far along the system, if not all the way.
At least with fake DV they have to hit themselves a few times.
It's also code for regret sex!
Did you sleep with a guy who's absolutely in your league, but you can't reconcile your undeserved, gynocentric feelings of superiority with your withered self-esteem? It's all good, just say rape. 👍
The consequence of when the definition of misogyny gets extrapolated all the way down to clumsiness, awkwardness and mistakes. Add in Tate, video games, adult websites and the abundance of young, single men and you have a moral panic involving millions of single men whom women are being told to be fearful of, are not good enough to date because they won't "be better" and demand Government do something about them. It is not going to end well.
I’m shocked I tells ya! Who didn’t see this coming? I’m paranoid about approaching women to ask on a date sometimes
There are women who legitimately complain online/ to friends because they are asked out when they dress up and go to bars.
That and I’ve learned over the years that a lot of times a “creepy” guy is just someone they didn’t find attractive
I'm willing to bet that number is above 80%. Sure, there are the occasional crazy stalkers (of both sexes, but for some reason only one gets talked about a lot) but the overwhelming majority of creepy is just "ewwww, why are you talking to me you peasant?!" Just like a lot of so-called rape cases (especially in college settings) are "I met a guy, slept with him and then regretted it, so it must be rape"
Haven’t some guys been accused of rape for that precise reason?
There was one where a girl was receiving oral sex from an incredibly hot guy, when it became socially embarrassing she went along with the feminist pressure and told the cops she was raping her.
There was a video (pg-13 and no it's not sexy) so there's doubt how absurd this claim was.
Fact is that a lot of men are just awkward, especially when approaching women. It makes sense to be creeped out if a guy hits on you while being unattractive, looking at his shoes and stuttering and mumbling.
I had a drunk girl walk up to me, punch me in the chest and when I looked at her confused, she ran off crying. Women are far more spergy at “flirting” when they have to initiate.
I would have hit her back. That's assault and you have the right to self-defence.
Most of us don't want aggravated assault or murder charges
Comment Reported for: Rule 2 - Violent Speech
Comment Approved: Self-Defense does not count in this rule because you have a natural right of self-defense within the limits of proportionality.
Or someone who's had their confidence shattered by a lifetime of being fed anti-male propaganda along with arbitrary, contradictory "rules" about how they're supposed to interact with women.
And yet you're one of my main detractors despite the fact I'm one of the few people attacking this issue at the source.
A lot of people would be inclined to agree with most of what you have to say if you had any idea when you've gone too far.
When have I gone too far, because feminists have advocated the "Final Solution to the Male Problem" repeatedly and that's still not too far for most women to give up on that movement.
I think I'm rather tame, all things considered. I advocate a peaceful separation from their control and limiting their power, while they advocate things that would make Adolf Hitler look like a small town serial killer.
I've repeatedly explained to you in explicit detail why I (and I assume many others as well, judging by the downvotes you attract) get sick of your antics. You just ignore it.
And in this case I'll go again, I agree that there's a shit ton of negativity thrown at boys and men. I lived it in the 80s and it's only gotten worse since then.
Where you go off the deep end is "and all women are hateful people and involved in a conspiracy to destroy all men and boys." That's where you earn the downvotes.
But why? What does #NotAllWomen even achieve? (aside from avoiding the incredibly obviously abused Rule 16)
Do you see the other side saying not all men? I think I shared an academic study once where they said saying not all men is condoning violence against women and the men who don't do anything about it.
Edit : I did share that study - I found it.
There you fucking go. Hate all men or you love murderers, say the people who actually love murderers so much they get them out of jail.
Your problem is literally the exact same problem as the feminists. You see a Matriarchy Monolith just like they see a Patriarchy Conspiracy. You focus on our warped culture overall and ignore the trees for the forest.
Every time you rant about how all women are the devil, I think of my sister who streams video games with me every Monday and trusts me to babysit my nephew for her. I think of my mom who pulls me out of depressive episodes and has long talks with me. I think of my cousin-in-law, who appreciates my company even after I sperged out and insulted her tastes.
I think of all the wonderful women in my life, and everything you say starts to ring hollow, even with the bits of truth you've latched onto rattling around inside.
So congratulations, you act just as irrationally as feminists do.
I hate feminists.
You do the math.
I've had absolutely gorgeous women tell me I'm hot and I've had average women act like I'm a trog. There's no ryhme or reason to shit but it definitely feels like the average has gotten a massively inflated ego because of social media and makeup
Agreed
Asked out by non-Chads that is.
It's why in the UK we have seen police going into bars and nightclubs to deal with complaints about unwanted attention and communication. It's why we are also seeing new laws on the way for online and offline behaviour toward women.
You need to leave before they arrest you.
It's a way to show social status. They don't really complain, they broadcast "many men find me attractive". But they can't be open with that, thus they "complain".
They started with humblebragging, which os obnoxious to begin with, and weaponized it.
Don't be. Nothing will happen, and if something does, you just accuse them of being racist.
“Hey baby are you checking me out or racially profiling me?”
Good point
Don't do it with coworkers and you are fine.
Next time you should try being an absolute chad like me, son.
I suppose I could try
If you were awkward or bad at it, that means you weren't a natural. Which betrays that you weren't the top 20% (or lower) excellent genes that women want to breed with on that instinctual level. They want those lower 80% to not even be allowed to approach them, let alone speak. God forbid they ask them out, because then it means they think the girl is so low on the scale that they had a chance.
Its always been this way, they are just ramping up the consequences more and more by the year. We are already partway to being an incel being actually illegal somehow, with the definition of it far beyond actual involuntary celibacy and well into just being "not attractive." Which is what all of this is building towards.
Where does this meme come from? I've known plenty of men who are not smooth, and yet have top-tier genetics, at least when it comes to intelligence (and earning potential).
The meme? /r9k/ The ratio? Pareto Distribution, which applies to almost anything.
Probably statistics published from dating sites. I think it was OkCupid that said women rate >80% of men as below average attractiveness ergo only chads in top <20% of attractiveness are matching with these women. These 20% of men thus have the pick of the crop and often treat women disposably since they have easy access to pussy. Women then think all men are trash from their experience of dating the same 20% of men who don't need or value a 5 or 6 out of 10.
Maybe 80% of men on OkCupid are below the average of men? Wouldn't surprise me.
People disagree about who the "top 20%" are. Unless a guy is really good-looking or really terrible-looking, that is going to be applicable. And "top 20%" is not exactly "Chad". If you go walk the streets, are 1 out of 5 men you see "Chads"?
I don't think anyone wants a 5 out of a 10.
Well, you got your answer. Whether or not that reflects reality; I don't care either way.
Fair enough, thanks.
Yeah, that is what has me confused. What metric should one use for "top 20%"? If that is even a thing, which I'm pretty sure it's not, because... well, just look outside.
Women go for top 20% looks/height.
Earnings potential and intelligence are what they go for when they're looking for a mark.
There are more virgins in MIT than in juvenile detention centers.
Yet another thing men are better at it seems.
To this point I've assumed that when people refer to "top 20 percent" they're being facetious-- not referring to any real measure of quality, just referring to what women see as the top 20 percent. Which is basically just the dudes who are hot and charismatic and have money.
If people actually believe there's some kind of linear natural scale of men, with hot and smart at the top, and ugly and stupid at the bottom, then that's retarded. Genetics arent that clean-cut or easy to understand.
As the other guy said, the Pareto Distribution. In this case I picked it because its a well known number for the discussion overall, but I think its actually quite a bit lower. Simply because of how few guys are really that much of a "natural" at such a things from birth, the majority of whom are likely quite mentally ill or dangerous resulting in such confidence instead of some perfect genes.
Corrected title : Women are ruining the lives of teenage boys.
Quelle surprise, it's a female author.
"We're totally with you, we're not all bad" doesn't work in the UK, that illusion was shattered when Sally Challen got out of jail. You protest "trans people in our bathrooms" but you couldn't get your fat, parasitic asses out of bed to protest a murderer being freed?
Woman: MeToo is ruining the lives of teenage boys.
Imp: FUCK YOU WOMENS! I'm not falling for your tricksy ways! Die mad about it!
That's the difference between actual opposition and controlled opposition. This is from the article I posted, written by a men's rights advocate. It clearly states the unwritten truth of why this happens.
I'm so unbelievably glad that all of my awkward instant messages and emails with girls from 20+ years ago are gone forever, I wasn't born as a smooth operator so I would be absolutely fucked for life if I was going through high school now.
For me metoo started a looot earlier, I was an awkward teen once, not to get into too much detail as it might dox me but: I never got any legal issues with it but reputation was destroyed amongst my peers, my confidence obviously was in shambles. That's years and years back, the people involved probably do not even think about it anymore, I sure did a until a while ago even many years later. Metoo probably made it way, way worse now.
So was this "you're a rapist" or "lol, what a weirdo loser"?
The loser part would have been fine. No, it was "this is sexual harassment" in front of a lot of literally all my peers.
Honestly, that is very strange to me. If that had happened to me, I'd have laughed it off, and no one would have cared. Is this fairly recent?
Many, many years ago and I am keeping some details hidden not to accidentally dox myself. Let's just say it wasn't said by her to me but that's as far as I can go.
I recognized my error as soon as I posted that. Rather strange. Maybe your school was idiosyncratic or in an idiosyncratic place (no, not fishing for any information).
No worries, man. I kinda got over it a couple years ago but it fucked me up for a very long time. Never once heard an apology for how I was treated nor do I expect one.
It's great that you've learned to deal with it well without beating yourself up over it. The best revenge on this sort of people is living well.
The Imp didn't post this and isn't commenting yet.... hmmmm
I already posted something where a UK MRA ripped these excuses apart. Also, I'm not always here.
MeToo just enabled women. Blaming it on MeToo is not going to help jack shit because it's the girls that are the problem. The system is just enabling their hate, that would exist anyway without it.
Every generation worse than the last.
You are an omniscient spirit of anger and vengeance. Don't sell yourself short. Practically the house mascot.
The older I get the more I believe that there should be persistent gender segregation throughout life. Interaction should be an exception for family. Both sides would be far better off.
