@JustBotBecky I wonder if Jenni knows that when we adjust for "made-to-penetrate" not being included in rape statistics, and estimate ACTUAL assaults rather than just blindly accepting reported ones (and yes, we can get a rough idea of actual assaults), women make up 30-40% of rapists.
@CFiorentin42848@_seraphina_vale But even then, there's a surplus of boys born, not just conceived. Regardless of the reason, I'm only bringing it up because I'm tired of people weaponizing biology to imply one gender is intrinsically better than the other.
@Maria5690159623@mtnd3wey@_seraphina_vale This is such a tired talking point. I'm talking about rationality in fear here. This is a non sequitur. Yes, men are the perpetrators of most violent crime (particularly reported violence). What difference does this make to the men that are victims? Fear should still be rational.
@mtnd3wey@_seraphina_vale constantly paranoid. And I think there needs to be a dose of rationality here, with women, too. The problem with this discourse is it's radicalizing a generation of women against men, because it's sensationalizing the worst without a lick of balance.
@mtnd3wey@_seraphina_vale rapists would be women. Still majority men, but men woud be more or less just as valid to be concerned about women. Or how about, when talking about violent crime, men are the overwhelming victims of this? I'm going to posit that it would be irrational for men to walk around
@RajeshPateLigma@estherzelda0514@MariGO2thepolls they would still press for men to express vulnerability. I'm not going to say that I don't understand the pressure to beautify, but I do advocate for a world where women aren't pressured into investing into all that crap.
@RajeshPateLigma@estherzelda0514@MariGO2thepolls I think that if men were to, for example, say that there's a social cost to expressing vulnerability, Feminists wouldn't accept that as an excuse not to be vulnerable. They might agree that this is a bad thing, as I would agree the social cost for not wearing makeup is bad. But
@pxppypawzz@NagrenOd@_seraphina_vale kind of "own" against men, "oh, you guys choose to protect people, how stupid!" It doesn't sound like much of an argument.
@pxppypawzz@NagrenOd@_seraphina_vale Biology. Also, apex fallacy much? Just because the top 0.01% of men decide shit should happen, doesn't mean men as a collective decided on something. But as for war, sure, men disproportionately decide to protect their nation, and disproportionately die doing so. Is this some
@onyxicca took it over, changed the rules, and started policing men's behavior in those spaces. Not all, but that's why many men are weary of treating this like it's an inclusive space, when they're the ones often being excluded if they don't play by the rules set up by the group that
@CertainSpeaks Nowhere does the Bible say God doesn't have a father, it says that before Him, no God was formed (Isaiah 43:10). If you're trying to use God the Father's relation to Jesus as a way to claim they aren't the same being, then you're trying to fit a square into a circular hole.
@JessPected Ok, there's a massive subset of women that told men to stop approaching women. Then, there was a massive subset of women complaining men had stopped approaching. Do you think these were the same women? Are they "contradicting themselves", or is it different women?
@mtheythem@_seraphina_vale Not at all. However, OP is implying a moral extrapolation (if you've seen her content, you know her stance). I'm simply pointing out that her logic is very shallow, and can be weaponized the other direction.
@DoCaos__@DipshikhaGhosh@QICricket When did I say Feminism was killing men? You're the one that brought this "killing" factor into it, as if that's the only metric of harm. That's very low level thinking.
