Narcissism is a complex clinical diagnosis, not a synonym for 'men I’ve had bad experiences with.' When we use therapy language to make broad-stroke generalizations about an entire gender, we lose the ability to look at relationships as unique interactions between two individuals
Narcissistic men always seek new women.
Not healing. Not accountability. Not inner work. Just a fresh start with someone who doesn’t know the script yet.
This is a classic false dilemma. It frames medical progress as a zero-sum game where men 'win' and women 'lose.' In reality, blood tests for cancer are a win for everyone. The fact that the speculum hasn't changed much in 180 years is a legitimate failure of medical innovation,
men are so afraid of having a finger stuck up their butt to perform a lifesaving cancer screening so they come up with a blood test for it instead.
meanwhile women have been getting cracked open with the original speculum from 180 years ago and nobody seems to care.
The 'locked door' analogy is a classic example of the Precautionary Principle. However, the logic falters when we apply it to people because, unlike a door, a person's reputation and social inclusion are impacted by being treated as a potential threat. It trades individual nuance
There is no conclusive, peer-reviewed study indicating that men are more prone to being gold diggers. This is fundamentally a post designed to provoke outrage (clickbait). In the future, make sure to conduct your research, so you won't appear foolish.
Flood effectively 'explains away' male victims. It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy: the system assumes men are aggressors, men fear reporting because of that bias, and then academics claim 'men aren't victims' because there are no reports.
In 2010, Professor Michael Flood wrote an article critical of Australian Father's Rights successes in ensuring equal access and custody of their children in divorce, and equal legal rights to decisions regarding their children.
His reasoning? The new laws *might* expose women and children to abuse.
In the same paper, he acknowledged abuse claims in divorce were rare.
Make no mistake- Flood is against men, and against Father's Rights. Every study and article he publishes seems to be a selection of anything potentially negative, even if he has to imagine it, such as most recently identifying "a desire to appear confident even when not confident" as a toxic trait to uphold masculine stereotypes in young men.
We are tired of men who seek nothing more than basic parenting rights being treated this way. We are exhausted of the same self-elected social leaders who claim to be focused on ending abuse ignoring the very real and documented abuse perpetrated by women and mothers, instead weaponizing the issue soley to disadvantage men.

Flood’s 2010 framework is outdated and gender-asymmetric. ABS data (2024–2025) shows 1 in 14 men have experienced partner violence, and we lose a man to intimate partner homicide every 26 days. By pre-defining violence based on the gender of the perpetrator,
While women make up 77% of the teaching force, they are significantly underreported in misconduct cases. Female-on-male abuse is often "glamorized" or dismissed as less harmful, these cases are less likely to be reported to authorities or reach the level of a formal statistic.
80-85% of sexually abusive teachers are male, even though 77% of k-12 educators are female.
“Male teacher abuses student” is about as newsworthy as “dog has fleas,” because in spite of the male claim that women vilify them nonstop, we don’t hold a candle to the way men behave any time the media breaks the news that a woman has done something wrong.
@FemCondition@MisandryE The 'myth' isn't about legal definitions; it's about the social perception that women are incapable of being sexual aggressors. When we hide behind legal technicalities to say 'women can't rape,' we contribute to the erasure of male and female victims who have experienced exactly
The issue with the 'Man Box' framework is that it treats masculinity as a vacuum. You can't study the 'pressure' on boys without also studying the 'enforcement' from the other side.
Boys are still in the grip of crippling masculine stereotypes: 6 findings from a new survey
Here is my summary of key findings from the new Adolescent Man Box survey

@MichaelGLFlood The link you provided admits mothers maintain patriarchy too, but then you dismiss it as 'less' than fathers. This ignores the silent enforcement, like the 'man of the house' dynamic, where boys are groomed into traditional roles by mothers to fill a void.
For a bill to become law, those men had to vote 'yes.' It was a combined effort of external pressure meeting internal political will. Maybe, you should read a history book!¡
While women were the catalyst, it’s a historical oversimplification to ignore the legislative process. In the 1890s and early 1900s, men held 100% of the legislative power.
The only reason women have any rights is because WOMEN got loud and difficult and demanded those rights. The next time a man tells you “men gave you rights” tell him to stfu and read a history book.
