Why are men the most unhappy of the genders?

Suicide rates are mostly men. Depression rates are mostly men. Loneliness rates are mostly men. It just goes on and on.

I don't think I've seen women face as much suffering as men do. Not even close. And they say girls have it hard.

This too

Men are generally different from women in a psychological perspective, if you were to generalize then this is evident even in early childhood.Does this affect suicidal thoughts? Don't know.

The other reason is men have it harder in life(contrary to what propaganda from the 50's tells you), they have more disadvantages in society, harder to survive.

They're more sensitive to pleasure, enough to a point that's it too much to handle. Yet strangely they're hard to please in bed (don't know how that works). Plus, society still kind of demonises female sexuality, even in private.

Aside from menstruation women have it easy. All a woman needs to do is be pretty and she'll have her life made while men will need to do actual work. Men focus on women and pleasing them, virgin beta males will do anything just to be walked over by a woman. Meanwhile living in a society with a narrative that women are oppressed when in reality there are hundreds of organizations devoted to helping women and none devoted to men, trying to even discuss that men have their needs to is labelled bigotry. Funny since this is supposed to be egalitarianism but only one side is always considered.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iARHCxAMAO0

And on the topic of loneliness, a girl can be anything above 6/10 and be guaranteed sex while as a man you'd need to be 9/10 to solely depend on your looks.

inb4 you don't know what it's like being a woman
By that same token you don't know what it's like being a man so you can't compare these experiences.

Also my quarrel is not against women just the beta males who overpower them at their own expense.

I used to make generalisations of this type.

Its a logical fallacy.

You know who has it hard in life? Everybody.

On the balance its probably a wash you underdeveloped children.

I'm nearly 40, and I didn't meet "her" until I was 37. There was lots of loneliness and struggle and shit, but you know what? You either work hard, overcome shit, develop yourself or die. The daily pain of life is something you either embrace or you get ground up.

As for chicks, really, the only way you're going to find happiness is looking beyond the physical. Practically no one under 35 in this country (USA) is worth a shit. Really, what risks have you taken in life? What values do you work for? What potentials have you developed? What value can you offer?

Half of you aren't worth shit, I can tell you that right now. I know because I was there. I wasn't shit, all my relationships were fucking trainwrecks. Everything you know is wrong. Everyone around you is a stupid lost idiot trying to grope their way out of some personal hell.

The best possible chance is you unfuck yourself of your stupid notions about life, people, and the universe and try becoming more human, then appreciate people who have made it through their own struggle. I mean, you guys are so superficial- real love is about nonphysical things.

It seems like every time a woman writes about herself or her gender, men shoot it down because it doesn't fit with their preconceived notion of how women are. If a woman talks about herself, her tastes, her interests, etc. Men accuse her of lying because what she's saying doesn't fit with their beliefs.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_genital_mutilation#Procedures_and_health_effects

Female circumcision is mostly done, especially in third world countries, as a means to prevent women from, er, "slutting around" basically. While the intent was the same with male circumcision when it first came up in Judaism, as a means to make sex less pleasurable. However, an alarming number of benefits arise from circumcising a baby boy (fighting off STDs, for one). Same cannot be said for female circumcision, because of how much more sensitive the vaginal area is to begin with.

The idea of male circumcision being detrimental and inhuman just simply isn't true, and tend to stem from racist/antisemitic origins.

Slicing off the clitoris would be the same as slicing off the head of the penis, instead of the foreskin. Slicing off the clitoris is more closer to straight-up castration than it is circumcision.

Male circumcision isn't. It keeps the penis intact, and helps usher in improvements that happen in adulthood.

Tu quoque and false dilemma. No one here, either me or you, said they weren't people. That wasn't even suggested in the beginning of the thread. If you're talking about consent, people can't really consent to much until ages 17 - 20, when the cerebrum fully develops. If you're talking about children screaming during a painful procedure, same with dental hygiene and vaccination shots, necessary at the consent of the parents (as is male circumcisions).

>is bad for women and good for men.
Circumcision for women basically just to disable a sensitive organ, in order to reduce her sexuality. Some tribes in Somalia not only do this to girls ages three and below, but also sew up the vagina with stitches until she is married (often given away to a male once they hit puberty). It's more closer to castrating a male than male circumcision is. It's not done for the same reasons, and doesn't have the same effects on the same scale as with girls. This isn't a matter of opinion or position, it's just how it is in our world. And most dads want their sons to be circumcised so they can look more like him (same with uncircumcised dads wanting their son to remain uncircumcised).

Men are more competitive. That I think is clear.
You can then speculate (unless someone provides evidence) that suicide is an evolved tendency to limit the number of men if they don't die otherwise enough, that depression is an evolved tendency to get you to drastically change your life if stuck, and that loneliness is just a consequence of competition and excess number of males.

False consensus bias. There are some adults who are uncut, but want to be cut, and thus get the procedure done (though it's more disastrous to an adult than it is an infant). Most adults just stick what they already have: uncircumcised prefer uncircumcised, circumcised prefer circumcised.

Here is the problem. You don't have 100,000 nerve endings on both your arms.

Cancer?

>>6669671
Men just really like it when they have kids that looks as much similar to them as possible. From an evopsy POV, it basically stands as proof that their genes are being spread out in the world, and continue the bloodline. This is also why men sometimes worry if the child is really theirs, and whether or not the mother was faithful to them or nil.

But it generally goes like this (apparently): circumcised men prefer to have their sons circumcised, while uncircumcised men prefer their sons to have their foreskin remain intact.

>Now, why is it bad for women to lose 100,000 nerve endings on 2 inches of flesh
Because the clitoris is pretty much exactly like the head of the male penis (pic related). It's not just cutting off some extra fold skin, it's basically cutting the head off of a penis.

>but it is okay for men to lose 100,000 nerve endings on 2 inches of flesh?
1). Length differences in flesh vary between person-to-person.
2). It's more closer to having skin surgically removed than it is removing nerves.

>>6669724
Genital mutilations tend to be more culturally influenced than religiously (even if that culture has strong religious connotations). General circumcision is more originated in Judaism than Muslim or Christian. But no one really mentioned Muslims here, so it's still a random thing to bring up. Or moving the goal posts, if you will.

It's because life is simply much easier for women, they don't have to go through the hardships that men do. Men are the people who make the whole of society run, basically the only contribution that women make to humanity is having kids, they don't have the same worries that men do. It's even worse now since men are becoming more and more devalued over time, and more of their entitlements are going to women instead.

You must accept reality. The only thing you have any control over is yourself. If you can't take pains to develop yourself, you're a weak piece of shit who forgot what it meant to outswim 50,000,000 of your sperm brothers to reach the egg.

Women are just people who struggle too. If you can't empathize, you just haven't developed your humanity and/or your perspective. You aren't guaranteed anything in this life except a shit sandwich. Your fucking soulmate isn't going to fall out of the sky into your lap. You aren't going to get anywhere without working for it. You better learn to love physical pain or your life is going to be an anemic wasteland of limited horizons. Life is struggle, everything else is a lie. The old world tribal societies with their child marriages and cult religions is the miserable alternative.

You better prioritize practicing opening up, being socially forward, being unambiguous about your feelings, being self-confident, not being a controlling, needy fascist, etc. You have to be fine with yourself, fine with being alone, interested in life, and oriented toward something positively greater than yourself.

If you want love, you have to be able to explain what it means for you. Without that, you can't identify what it is not and can't communicate your standards. You have to find the criteria for what that is, and it is imperative you communicate about it to your prospective partners, early and often. Women love to talk about it. They are evaluating: Do you follow your ideals? Can you respect someone else's ideas/feelings/thoughts? How does your actions line up with your words? Are you consistent? Or are you a bullshitter? At the same time they reflect on their own ideas and feelings. You'll get their love if you get their admiration and respect, and not before.

From an unbiased point of view, women have it pretty shitty too. They, too, have to desire to live up to unrealistic standards and have done it for longer than men. That being said, some skinnyfat slut is ridiculously more likely to be asked into a relationship than a skinnyfat man.

We were the dumbasses who imposed similar unrealistic standards on ourselves. Now if you don't lift weights, you'll never be considered even remotely close to attractive by women, when in the past it would suffice that you showered, kept your hair neat and didnt let yourself turn into a tub of lard. What if I just dont have enough time to lift weights seriously enough so that it makes a noticeable difference? And the older I get, the less time I expect to have for that shit.

Why did we let this be done to us by us? As if it wasn't enough that we have to do all the heavy lifting when it comes to social interactions, now we also have to live up to ridiculous standards in the way we look.

If someone wants to kill themselves they'll fucking kill themselves. It doesn't matter if it's with a gun, knife, rope, drowning, toaster, etc. if they have the legitimate intent on killing themselves they'll get it done. A "survived" suicide attempt is just someone looking for attention.

Pills are unreliable and can be extremely unplesant. Fire would be painful. Drowning terrible and running in traffic can make you a vegetable.

Invictus

BY WILLIAM ERNEST HENLEY

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,

I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.

Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,

And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,

I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.

Unlike women, men are judged by their achievements, wealth, and raging muscles if they have them.

100% bullshit. It's more that males tend to seek out less help during divorce/alimony/child support trials. When they DO seek out legal advice/hire lawyers the court system swings massively in their favor.

>Men are the ones drafted
Isn't it a male-dominated government that made it that way? Why should women be to blame for an obviously arbitrary rule that they had no hand in? Congratulations you just argued for feminism

It's not a binary process, it's a continual erosion. Things today are noticeably different than they were even a decade or two ago.

>>6673423
You need to stop getting your ideas of what feminism is from AM talk radio and /v/.

Lol no seriously go talk to literally any actual person involved with feminism and not the strawman you've carefully constructed in your head

Why bother investing time and resources in things that are not even named properly?

>>6673430
It means nothing, they will all say something different because collectively they don't understand logic and can't even pick a philosophy to shill for that is logically consistent and named correctly.
>>
>>6673431
>Why bother investing time and resources in things that are not even named properly?
Why bother trying to communicate with someone so spergy that they dismiss a movement because they get hung up on the name? Are you one of those people who make it a point to remind everyone that the US is actually a republic, not a democracy?
>>
>>6673441
No, I am the type of person who reminds everyone that republic and democracy are vague enough generalizations to not be very applicable to real world situations because political science is just a bunch of semantic bullshit with no real measurement or well defined metrics.
>>
>>6669364
The answer, ladies and gentlemen.
While alot of men are more inclined to productivity and most women are more inclined to "whatever they feel like" they can still let out how shit their life is without people thinking "Grow the fuck up and get over it".
>>
>>6673429
If feminism were significantly more pervasive, then perhaps the reasons I listed for elevated male suicide risks (>>6673399) would no longer be reasons for depression, or perhaps they would be less influential.

You say it's not binary, but I think that in a way it is, but regardless it doesn't change my point.

Firstly, we're talking about values: the criteria by which someone measures their own self worth. Frankly, I think it's fair to say that once people are at the age where suicide is a legitimate threat to health and not just a fun word to toss around, at that age most peoples' values are pretty much set in stone. Even if they're not 100% rigid, I think it's fair to say they're mostly rigid.

Secondly, even if you were to insist that it's not a binary issue, that feminism can gradually make its effect, well so what -- currently it's mostly just a fringe in the media, government, and academia in modernized countries. So while some momentum has built up, surely, but honestly not much and so it will be a good while before enough gradual change has occurred for there to be a substantial change in the waters. My point: even if nonbinary, our society is still so far from being feminist at our ideological cores, and progress will be so slow that in this day if you flip to being a feminist you're likely to be rejected in the ways I described.
>>
>>6673449
>Secondly, even if you were to insist that it's not a binary issue, that feminism can gradually make its effect, well so what -- currently it's mostly just a fringe in the media, government, and academia in modernized countries.
Much of what was feminism decades ago is the status quo today, and it's very likely that much of the progress that conservatives and reactionaries rail against today will be the norm decades from now.

Now if the bottom word were more heard of in general society you can bet your ass people would change to it.
>>

You flat out say it yourself. "Equal rights" is not supremacy, so this criticism is nonsense.
>>
>>6670716
man, you fucking got it
All these fuckers seem to have no empathy, or at least only a little bit.
This is why I hate religion vs atheists vs fedoras vs whateverthefuck
it's all superficial bullshit, all that matters is empathy, the golden rule.
Following the golden rule = everything works out, and the golden rule isn't just about how you do or don't treat others, but how you treat yourself. An explicitly accurate version of it would be something like:
Treat others as you wish to be treated, don't treat others as you wish not to be treated, treat yourself as you wish others to treat themself.

If everyone followed this, everyone who isn't a psychopath would be nice, caring, thoughtful, considerate, and constantly working to improve themself.
>>
>>6673456
>some "rights" are in favor of men
>some "rights" are in favor of women

Remove the first and not the second and we are not in a truly egalitarian society.
>>
>>6673458
A "truly egalitarian" society would require a lot of corrective measures to remove the influences of past discrimination, but I imagine you're against that as well.
>>
>>6673460
Not the person you're replaying to, but seriously when will there ever be an equal society? Even if people are against it, which would be a few stereotypical cultures I'd imagine, how does it make a difference what someones opinion on something that will never happen matter?
>>
>>6673457
There is a psychopath hidden away in all of us though, anon.
>>
>>6673466
Yes because that term, like most of psychology nomenclature, is vague bullshit that can be equally applied to everyone and no one.
>>
>>6673460
>A "truly egalitarian" society would require a lot of corrective measures to remove the influences of past discrimination
Of course.

>but I imagine you're against that as well.
Haha, so you're saying that because I want equality for all (egalitarian movements for both men and women), I actually want it for neither and especially not for women.
>>
>>6673465
We will never have a truly equal society, in the same way nothing we do will ever be perfect, but that shouldn't stop us from doing the best we can. Perfection is an ideal to strive towards, not a realistic end goal.

>>6673471
>Haha, so you're saying that because I want equality for all (egalitarian movements for both men and women), I actually want it for neither and especially not for women.
No, I'm saying that I get the feeling that you are one of those people who believe in the facade of equality but not the reality of it, because I've heard these sorts of arguments from those sorts of people. If I'm wrong about that, I apologize.
>>
>>6673474
Well at this point anon I feel like we're yelling in the same direction. It's a little confusing figuring out who is who without ID's, I jumped into this conversation half way. However, I think it's fair to say that most people (at least on this board) who criticize "equality" movements do so on the basis of inequalities they would create, not that they're against the equality part. That said, I think we're all really arguing for the same thing in the end. Anyways anon, I'm off to bed. Good night.

But that is physically impossible.

Also take a look at the list of risks that a most circumcised men get anyway, genital herpes? HPV? It is so god damn common in america where everyone has their dick slaughtered anyway. These bastards are lying through the guise of a scientific study.

Also take a look at the second link. The bastards say that they are pro-choice, but infant circumcision is actually not pro-choice, as in the first-class party does not, nor will ever have any choice in the matter. This is the god damn party being affected. People who have no affect in the party choose sexual preferences for someone else. They don't even have to live with the consequences. Fucking bastards.
>>
>>6669600
>benefits nullifies the consequences.

You and every circumciser always side-step consequences and jump to imaginary STD prevention benefits. Go get a condom.
>>
>>6669612
foreskin is an important anatomical feature for sex.

oh you don't know that because your dick was butchered.
>>
Yeah it's just like removing your appendix, or your tonsils..

Like how we remove everyone's appendix and tonsils preventative surgery style at birth!

Gogo circumcision!
>>
>>6673506
It increases pleasure a bit, it is neither important nor functional for procreation.

>>6673502
STDs are more easily transmitted in folds of the foreskin that harvest bacteria almost as bad as the dirty bacteria ridden vaginal walls, herpes is much more prevalent in many parts of europe, asia, and afrrica, genital herpes usually lives where it is cold and slightly moist and I don't just mean your mother's vagina.
>>
A bit???? As the unwilling victim of a circumcision at age 21, I can say it's more than a bit. I would say that 80-90% of sexual pleasure is provided by the foreskin nerve endings, and in a way I envy those circumcised at birth, because that way I would never have known what I am missing.
>>
>>6673538
Oh, and: If foreskin folds are a problem for STD transmission, why are we not in the Western World performing Pharaonic circumcision of baby girls as a public health measure?
>>
>>6673569
It much more invasive, takes longer to heal, has more complications, etc.
>>
>>6673529
No that's stupid, we should removes everyone's arms as a preventative for wrist cancer.
>>
>>6673538
>herpes is much more prevelent in many parts of europe, asia and afrrica

http://www.who.int/bulletin/volumes/86/10/07-046128/en/

http://www.who.int/bulletin/volumes/86/10/07-046128-table-T3.html

The lowest prevalence was in western Europe, where prevalence reached a maximum of around 18% among women and 13% among men. The highest prevalence was in sub-Saharan Africa, where prevalence reached a maximum of 70% among women and around 55% among men.


Western Europe also has the lowest rate of circumcision, while Africa has the highest. The US had a higher rate of infection than Western Europe as well. The same trends also apply to the prevalence of HIV infection, so obviously circumcision is extremely ineffective as a preventative measure for STDs.

Funny, a few years ago, I read a news report on violence perpetrated by Aceh locals on Christians. This woman told of their village being attacked by Muslim extremists, who cut off the clitoris' from all the women and circumcised all the men. She said that she felt very sorry for the men, because of the sheer size of the wound, and that the women fared much better. We are just talking about wounds here, of course, not long-term quality-of-life effects.
>>
>>6673576
http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/prevention/research/malecircumcision/

There are many other factors, it is bad science to jump to that conclusion without considering all the factors, you link even says it is more related to the amount of development, but the fact is that circumcision reduces the amount of moist soft tissue where bacteria can live, it isn't a preventative measure, but it has been shown to reduce the chances of hosting an infection.

>the fact is that circumcision reduces the amount of moist soft tissue where bacteria can live
So does limb amputation and organ removal.

>>
>>6673594
Oh yea, I forgot about all the STDs people are getting through their limbs and organs.
>>
>>6673588
But why go to the lengths of amputating a healthy and functioning part of the body when condoms, sexual education and personal hygiene are all far more effective at preventing STDs?

>>6673595
>>6673588
Obviously circumcision doesn't solve the problem, as there wouldn't be a positive correlation between the high rates of STDs and high rates of circumcision, even if it does mitigate it slightly.

>It would take 56 circumcisions to prevent 1 case of HIV
>>
>>6673611
>a positive correlation between the high rates of STDs and high rates of circumcision
You didn't show a universal positive correlation, you cherry picked a couple of countries, when UK is the lowest STDs and has a moderate rate of circumcision and Latin American countries like Argentina and Bolivia often have low rates of circumcision and high rates of herpes.
>>
"Wanna prevent STDs? Just cut the tip of your dick off!"

21st century science, ladies and gents.
>>
>>6673618
Whatever, my point wasn't to show a correlation, it was to refute what >>6673538 said.

In any case, http://www.circumstitions.com/HIV-SA.html clearly shows the risk reduction ratio is pathetic considering you are permanently removing a healthy, functioning body part. Would you really willingly cut part of yourself off for a one in 56 chance you won't get an STD from unprotected sex with a diseased skank, when you could just use a condom or be a bit responsible with who you stick it in?

The real reason non-Jewish/Muslim Americans are circumcised is because it was presented as a way of preventing boys from committing the sin of masturbation during the late C19th. Once it became normalized, the original reasons were forgotten and parents have it carried out because they don't want their child to be 'different'. However, this obviously isn't the most valid reason for the continuation of the practice, so the reasons have been changed in hindsight to those of preventing disease.

If you are a woman below 4/10 you are FUCKED in the most unliteral way possible, both psychologically and socially, and will only find some desparate beta faggot unless you have some sort of talent, which is probanly not the case. And a lot of women are below 4/10 , atleast where I live.
