@LordFallThanks for the assumptions about a random person on the internet. Anything else?

Here's the thing, though - feminism is not doing any favors to your 'high-value men' either. Whether you define 'high-value' in terms of looks, money or even performative morality. Justin Baldoni got accused of sexual-assault, even though he had a TED-talk on feminism.

It is outdated 'us vs them' nonsense, it's fundamentally unloving and it has no place in a world where men are valued and respected. It glorifies disrespectful behavior towards men. All men. So, when a woman says 'I'm a feminist', realize that she's had some trauma with men, which is making it so she's failing to be loving towards men. This is her failure to be loving towards men. And, treat it accordingly.

Then what? You still have to fix the situation, right? Where you're being disrespected for the crime of being a man?

They are one and the same. In their ideology and their actions. There is an anti-male fundamentalism brewing in feminist circles. The point of the MeToo movement is to deny due process to the accused, such that they become guilty until proven innocent. The 'feminization of law', as it's been put by Helen Andrews, makes it so the moment a woman accuses a man of anything, it is automatically the word of God. All thanks to feminism. Here, she mentions how feminism has demonized male sexuality to death, which is apparent from the MeToo movement.

This one explains false accusations. At 47:55.

We do need to question the 'oppression' narrative too, that 'men are the oppressors'. If you have the courage to deconstruct this, do so.

So, the toxicity of feminism is not that recent. It's always been this bad. It's just surfacing now.

I think that a big reason for this stupid gender-war is atheism. A fundamental 'Godlessness' in the modern world, which leads to different agendas on the male side and the female side. Religion is not a great solution to this problem, because the gender-roles are too rigid. New-Age spirituality is a much better solution.

In case the link doesn't work, you can watch videos on youtube reacting to this article.

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1J5Yp4KcUp/ I think we need a man-hate mega-thread.

This is a hugely important video to watch. It describes the level of 'crying wolf' that feminists do. If this doesn't demonstrate that it's a hate-group, I don't know what will.

@soos_mite_ah I'd suggest that you have faith that the future will turn out fine. It sounds like you have been honest with him, he's seen who you are and accepted you for who you are. You seem to be doing fine, for now. Which means that you're currently doing something right. Even if you end up breaking up after a long time, it sounds like something both of you will grow out of relatively smoothly. And that's the worst-case scenario for your relationship.

'Believe all women', my ass. '1 in 100 accusations are false'. Bullshit. This is what the real 'science' says. Does the 'man vs bear' crowd have something to say about this?

I think he should get the full $110M and she should be sentenced to jail for life. My support is with Saifullah Khan. Who else is with him? Let's drum up support for him when the truth is on his side!

Could this truly end false accusations?

Given what I've been through, as a victim of false accusation, no.

Okay. Good to know that this is your stance on it. @NoSelfSelf was hugely guilty of it in the dating section. My theory is that he was a normal self-actualizer in the beginning, then he had some awakenings, then he went off the deep end and started to bypass practical reality. Very easy to do when you have your first few awakenings. I really wouldn't know how to predict who will fall into this trap in the future when you recruit a mod. Maybe you could set higher standards for existing mods relative to bypassing? Because if @NoSelfSelf really was as good as you're saying he was, it's possible that just educating him about this issue of bypassing may have helped him improve as a mod.

@Leo Gura What do you think of spiritual bypassing? Is it okay? Is it problematic?

'Men are the historic oppressors', 'Masculinity is toxic', 'Men are more dangerous than bears', 'the solution to men's loneliness is that they should smile more', 'men just need to be better', 'men are trash', blah blah blah. All of this man-hating nonsense spewed by progressives has come back to bite them in the ass. As much as I despise Trump, the SJWs 100% deserved to lose this one.

I'm not telling you 'how my life is' after your first post in this thread was to copy-paste ChatGPT. However my life is, it's clearly better than yours.

This is not 'misfortune'. That's my entire point, you have zero excuses for losing to Trump. This is your own damn fault! I talked about the rhetoric-issues, and I'd argue the progressive rhetoric has the exact same issue. Kicking people when they're down. So, by your own logic, the progressives need to have a long look at themselves.

I mean, you people are no strangers to the joy of virtue-signaling. I am enjoying the turning of the tables when it comes to virtue-signaling, that's for sure.
