Feminism is because nowadays women actually have to get jobs. Most working husbands can't support a woman with his income alone. The only problem with that is even when they achieve equality they don't want to rid of convenient obsolescent practices. Essential their lives just got easier.

I'm an autist though so who really knows.

Women in shitty countries like the Middle East are oppressed. A woman in some Middle Eastern countries can be stoned to death for not wearing a hijab in public. Oddly enough, though, most first world feminists would rather complain about the "wage gap" and catcalling.
>>
>>35727831

Imagine 100 men and 100 women move to an island. Suppose the men start building things, shelters, roads, etc. Suppose the people in the construction industry are about 95% men. Suddenly, women say that men have all the jobs, and they can't break into the industry (that men created). Men built it, but women want in, instead of going off and building their own things.

That's what Silicon Valley is. "Look at all these privileged males who invented all this stuff!" "I'm being oppressed because they invented all this shit before I did."

"Give them an inch and they'll take a mile."

Selfishness breeds selfishness. Entitlement breeds entitlement.

Western women have lost all sense of perspective. Suddenly catcalling is worse than being stoned to death in a Muslim country.

Maybe some would argue that it's like a kid who's never been spanked, they can grow up into a completely spoiled brat, a tiny little megalomaniac. But you can't hit women anymore in Western countries.

"There are no physical repercussions for women for being an asshole."

They act like they have diplomatic immunity everywhere they go, spoiled little "princesses."

>>35727831
It's something that I find is really hard to explain to men, it's a definite thing but you don't see it because you're on the other side, like a two-way mirror or something.

Essentially the world was built around men and what men want and need and do, especially the business world, and that's to be expected, because men built it. However, men aren't the only ones inhabiting it anymore. It can be really difficult for women to enter certain fields because of the way they're set up, like a woman in STEM is likely to not finish her degree and I think it's because
1. She's usually the only female in any of her classes
2. People treat her poorly for wanting to do "a man's work"
People will treat a woman like shit if she says she doesn't want kids as well. I think it's normal for a woman to want to focus on her career, it's certainly normal for a man to do so, so why do people act like it's horrible if a woman doesn't want to give birth or raise a family? You can say "That's all a woman is good for" but isn't that technically what a man is for, too, procreation?

There's also the problem with rape, it's still true that most rapists are never caught and a lot of women who are raped are told they are to blame. That's like saying, it's your fault for going to work at the WTC on 9/11, or that it's your fault your house was broken into by teenage hoodlums. It's not kind, it trivializes the trauma of rape, and it makes women less likely to report rape for fear of being made fun of, thus more rapists are left out in public.

Women just want to live alongside men without being made to fear the world they live in or made to struggle because of their gender. As with any social movement there are a lot of very loud extremists but they don't represent the whole. I would never call myself a feminist to anyone for any reason, but I do consider myself a supporter of true equal rights for both genders.

>Women just want to live alongside men without being made to fear the world they live in or made to struggle because of their gender.

Do you think men think the world is safe? No, men are expected to protect their loved ones, even die for them if necessary.

Women can choose to work. Women can choose to be a stay-at-home mom. Men are expected to earn more. Men are expected to pay. Men are expected to initiate contact. Men are expected to get on one knee and give someone a rock that cost 3 months salary. Men are expected to build all the big things, repair all the big things, mine the coal, work in the sewage treatment plants, pick up the garbage, repair the downed power lines, be drafted into the military, all the stuff that people just take for granted living in civilization. Men are just expected to do these things.

And starting at age 37, men have a higher mortality rate. Meanwhile, there is something like 5 times as many women who are 100 years old or older than men.

Real privilege is when you don't even realize how privileged you are.

And let's not talk about men problems being mocked on a global scale while women "problems" are a first priority.

>men are expected to protect their loved ones, even die for them if necessary
When and where is this still the case? This is an antiquated notion as much as any. No one expects men to die for them. Men choose to enlist in the army (currently). There was even some proposed legislation in the last few months trying to get women to have to sign up for the draft. I personally think the draft should be abolished entirely, that if a country doesn't have enough citizen support to fight the war with voluntary enlistees, then it shouldn't fight the war.

>Men are expected to earn more
>Men are expected to pay
>Men are expected to initiate contact
>etc
You come into contact with these kind of old-fashioned women when you value old-fashioned women. You can date a feminist, not even a pink-haired landwhale feminist, just a normal one, and none of this will be an issue.

Men aren't "expected" to do anything other than their jobs, which women are also expected to do. If you don't want to do a job, don't get hired doing that job. Fields like coal mining, sewage treatment, etc are male-dominated fields because they were built by men doing them. A woman is very hard-put to find a job in construction because the men in charge think she can't do it and will only slow them down. Same goes for a lot of fields, but I actually do see many more female construction workers in the last few years.

Men have a much higher rate of disease and accidental death related to play activities, commit suicide more often, and are more likely to avoid going to the doctor for routine checkups and even necessary treatment.

This page does a good job covering the basics.

I don't think that's a good or normal thing. I think that needs addressed as well, WHY do men die more often from heart disease, WHY do men commit suicide more, but a lot of it simply has to do with biological gender differences as well, and that will always be a factor in men and women both.

inb4 biological gender differences mean women have to be housewives and caretakers
In Iceland's great economic crash in 2008, all of their banks failed except the only one that was founded by and run by women. (Incidentally, unlike America, Iceland let all its banks fail and jailed the bankers whose shoddy practices crashed the economy, and have made an amazing recovery in just six years, better than America and better than they were before the crash.)
Women supported the USA during WWII when most men were fighting the war, even in a time when women didn't usually work.
There were female first responders at the WTC site on 9/11. Females die protecting their children and even their students.

The thing is that gender inequality hurts men as well as women.

Has it ever occurred to you fucking morons that both genders have problems?

I'm a guy, so I'm obviously gonna feel like women have it easier because I don't fucking know what it's like to be a girl. It's the same situation with girls. Why can't we all just admit we all have issues with life, because, as much as it's hard to believe, but that's just life.

How about instead of men going on /r9k/ and bitching about how women only have to be skinny to get their way in life and women going on tumblr to talk about how men find it easier to get jobs and shit, why don't we just get over our pathetic, pointless excuses of lives and just get on with it.

Did they get rid of the draft when I wasn't looking? Antiquated how? The Vietnam War ended in 1975. There's a chance that the reason I exist today is because my father flunked his draft physical.

There hasn't been a draft since then. But men who turn 18 in the US are required by law to register within 30 days with the Selective Service System to become potential meatshields.

>No one expects men to die for them.

Except like in the theater shooting in Aurora where boyfriends took bullets for their girlfriends?

Except when it comes to all the most dangerous jobs, which are held mostly by men?

Society gives men a sacrificial obligation that women are never expected of.

>You can date a feminist, not even a pink-haired landwhale feminist, just a normal one, and none of this will be an issue.

Feminists *say* they don't care if 1) she makes more money, 2) she's taller, 3) she pays most of the time of dates, 4) she initiated contact, or even 5) she proposed. But women despise weakness, and women loathe doormats. Women are not turned on by men she sees as below her.

>Men aren't "expected" to do anything other than their jobs, which women are also expected to do.

False. Read The Myth of Male Power: Why Men are the Disposable Sex by Warren Farrell. Men are expected to do all kinds of things for women, men have much more obligations to women than vice versa.

>Men have a much higher rate of disease and accidental death related to play activities, commit suicide more often, and are more likely to avoid going to the doctor for routine checkups and even necessary treatment.

Look at a chart of the most dangerous jobs. Again, men are expected to do these.

Women may be expected to "sacrifice" a career in order to stay at home in their pajamas while kids watch cartoons. But men are expected to sacrifice their life for women and children.

>Women supported the USA during WWII when most men were fighting the war, even in a time when women didn't usually work.

Sure. And there efforts were certainly valuable. But do you know the ratio of men/women killed during WWII?

>There were female first responders at the WTC site on 9/11. Females die protecting their children and even their students.

Sure. And there efforts were certainly valuable. But again, do you know the ratio of men/women first responders who died years later due to all the toxic shit in the WTC rubble? Or say, the ratio of men/women police officers killed in the line of duty?

I'm going to guess that a female is more likely to kill her own children, then die protecting her children, or die protecting her students.

Now, it's no surprise that men are expected to protect women and children, since men are typically larger and stronger than women and children. I just take issue with the argument that men somehow have more "privilege" than women, when nothing is expected of women. You can't tell a woman she's "less of a woman" or "not a real woman" these days, or tell her to "woman up." That's not even a thing. Yet how many men are told they are "less of a man" or "not a real man" or "man up"? There is a fundamental biological assymmetry between men and women. But the idea that women in Western nations are "oppressed" in any way is absurd. Women can live like children all their lives.

Again, women are not expected to sacrifice their mortal life, they are a protected class, coddled by society, which is why there are so many more female senior citizens and centenarians than men.
>>
>>35729679
I already addressed the draft concern. It is antiquated, even if it's still in place. You don't know what the word means, clearly.

>Except like in the theater shooting in Aurora where boyfriends took bullets for their girlfriends?
No one "expected" them to, no one in the front row turned around and said "Dude, what are you doing? Protect your girlfriend!" They did it because they chose to, out of love.
>Except when it comes to the most dangerous jobs
I also already talked about this, but you aren't reading very thoroughly. The reason that most dangerous jobs are held by a male-dominated workforce is because males who are in charge won't hire women because they don't trust them to do a good job. I don't doubt that these fields will always be male-dominated, but I think that has to do with how men perceive themselves as well, as dispensable, and men are more likely to prefer to do a dangerous job for good money than a woman is. That's preference, that has nothing to do with feminism or male oppression.

>Women are not turned on by men she sees as below her
It depends on what kinds of traits she sees as being "below her." Some women don't care about paying for dates, some do, some women don't care if you are very shy, some do. My boyfriend has severe social anxiety and doesn't leave the house unless he absolutely has to, he won't even answer the door for the pizza guy, and I don't mind it. I am strong where he is weak and vice versa. We help each other cope. I am not the sole woman on earth who is like this.

>men have much more obligations to women than vice versa
While I think that statement is bullshit, I can also argue that women have much more obligation to their children than men. Everyone has obligations. That's life, pal. Also, anyone can write a book about any opinion they have. Ayn Rand writes books. What does that say about anything?
>>
>>35729776
>But do you know the ratio of men/women killed during WWII?
Women were still mostly treated as property during this time. I don't know the ratio of men/women killed during this time.
FYI, Men created the draft and men also barred women from the draft.

Men are more likely to take dangerous jobs like being a police officer or firefighter. You are going over the same few subjects again and again, without really elaborating, only trying to say "it's always been this way and it isn't fair," and I agree with you that it isn't fair, but women didn't create the system, men did. Women are fighting for the change they want in a male-created system. If men want change, men should fight for their rights as well. I will gladly support both causes.

>a female is more likely to kill her own children
A man is more likely to kill his own children than to die in the line of duty being either a police officer or a firefighter combined.

I'm not sure what your point is. Some people are bad people.

>You can't tell a woman she's "less of a woman" or "not a real woman" these days
I hear this all the time - mainly from other women but also from men - because I don't want to have children.

>the draft concern. It is antiquated

Is Roe v. Wade "antiquated"? The decision from 1973 which made it legal for a woman to kill a man's unborn child without even having to ask him? 1973 is also when men were last drafted.

If a man walks up to a pregnant woman, and punches her in the stomach so she loses the baby, will he be charged with homicide? Meanwhile, a pregnant woman can legally kill a man's baby, and people will march for her right to do so.

>No one "expected" them to

Women expect men to put down their lives for them. Women are fine using men as shields. Is Titanic a good love story?

>most dangerous jobs are held by a male-dominated workforce is because males who are in charge won't hire women because they don't trust them to do a good job

You think men prefer to work in coal mines? When it comes to physical jobs, women may produce less if they lack the strength to meet production demands.

Men are seen as disposable.

And could it be that people with higher IQs are more likely to succeed in Silicon Valley? Men typically have larger brains, more neurons, more synapses, and higher IQs on average than women. At the level of 130 IQ, there are 3 times as many men with that IQ than women. It's not "oppression" when an industry looks for a certain skillset, and pays people for it.

Or consider models or pornstars. Women excel when it comes to beauty, so they get paid much more than men.

>It depends on what kinds of traits she sees as being "below her."

Decades of culture cannot change millions of years of evolution. You may say that stuff doesn't bother you. But I will bet that you won't be married to that guy for 50 years. You'll fuck another guy you think is better.

>I can also argue that women have much more obligation to their children than men.

Yes, women are expected to raise kids, men are expected to feed them all. Like Ali Wong said, a woman is not "oppressed" by getting to stay home from work. Work sucks.

>>35729434
Women act like it's the worst punishment in the world when they get breast cancer - all doctors need to do is cut out the breast and they are pretty much guaranteed to be more or less "cured", worst case scenario she loses her breasts, is less attractive and can't breastfedd. That's it, the sum total of losing both of your breasts.

But testicular cancer is worse, it effects far more men than women (1/3 will get it before they die, assuming they live to old age), is much harder to get rid off and the possibility of losing your testicles is horrific - it means you can't reproduce, testosterone and muscle growth are severely inhibited, sex drive lowered. Basically, you stop being a man and lose your identity.

>>35729911
>Women were still mostly treated as property during this time.

"Property" that lives longer than men? Property that doesn't have to storm the beaches of Normandy and run into machine gun fire? That sounds horrible, having to stay home and watch TV that her husband paid for.

>FYI, Men created the draft and men also barred women from the draft.

Yeah, because men are expected to die for women, and are expected to fight the wars. Maybe you could argue "men are more warlike", but women reward that kind of behavior in men. Strong killers make women wet.

>Men are more likely to take dangerous jobs like being a police officer or firefighter.

Again, because men are the expendable sex. Men are expected to die for women.

>only trying to say "it's always been this way and it isn't fair," and I agree with you that it isn't fair, but women didn't create the system, men did.

I'm pointing out that women in the West have it much better than they think, it's women that have more privileges. And yes, men did create the system, like, democracy, and philosophy, and science, and civilization, and technology, and the computer chips that allow you to spread your opinions over thousands and thousands of miles.

>Women are fighting for the change they want in a male-created system.

Women can create their own systems. Women in the US could have even elected a female president, since women are the majority of voters. But no, they voted for a guy who acts like an alpha male. Biology takes over.

>A man is more likely to kill his own children than to die in the line of duty being either a police officer or a firefighter combined.

Feminism is pro-choice, and they're fine with killing children.

If a parent is sacrificing their life for a child, it's more likely the man.

>I hear this all the time - mainly from other women but also from men - because I don't want to have children.

The thing about men having a say in abortion is that it isn't the man's body. This is not a feminism issue either, it's a right to bodily autonomy. If you had to carry a baby around in your testicles for 10 months and shove it out your arsehole, you wouldn't fancy a woman telling you you HAVE to do it even if you didn't want to.

The draft was instituted in 1940, with the US on the brink of WWII. I think it is antiquated. I think it was a bad idea then and it's a bad idea now.

Titanic the movie was a fictional story loosely based on a real-life event. Jack and Rose weren't real people, you twat, and even if they were, Jack INSISTED on saving Rose. He WANTED to. I'm sorry that your pea-sized heart can't accommodate selflessness and sacrifice, but most of the time, no one EXPECTS a man to die instead of a woman.

>Women are fine using men as shields
Everyone would rather nobody died. If you and your friend were walking together, and a nigger comes up and says he's going to kill one of you, and your friend insists on taking the bullet for you - you will feel bad, but you will also be grateful. The same is true for women.

>[men have] higher IQs on average than women
That's true, but it could possibly be that IQ tests are written measured against a man's type of intellect - in fact, it is almost certainly true. Male brains do better with spatial reasoning, logic, mathematics and patterns - all of which are major components of a standard IQ test. Female brains do better than male brains with color, multi-tasking, language, and emotion.

I didn't bring up anything about Silicon Valley. I also agreed that men are more likely to do more physical jobs than women solely based on physical attributes, and while yes, women are more likely to be models, they're also more likely to be nurses and teachers. However, fields like nursing and teaching are indispensable, completely necessary fields which are paid so very little compared to male-dominated fields of lesser overall importance, like banking. Why does the government subsidize failed banks but can't pay teachers? Is it because men are the bankers and men are the politicians, but men aren't the teachers?

>I will bet that you won't be married to that guy for 50 years
I bet not either, because neither of us believes in marriage. But I won't cheat on him, and I won't leave him. I'm sorry you've jaded yourself and ruined your sense of passion and wonder by always looking at the bad aspect of things.

Some women want to work and not raise kids and men (and some women even) make that very hard for them. They pay less in many jobs, they won't hire women for certain jobs.

You have a very pathetic view of yourself and your gender. You aren't disposable. The only people who treat you as such are yourselves.

All women are privileged over men and some men are more privileged than other men but no man is more privileged than a woman.

You keep saying that men are expected to this and that and the other, but you aren't giving any reasoning. Meanwhile, I've said my piece. I don't think there should be a draft and I think all fields of work and study should be more accessible to both genders.

Women don't want the privilege of having to sit at home with kids. Well, some do, and some men want the privilege of getting to fight for their country. It's clear that you want to live a life devoid of meaning and just sit on your ass all day, so why not do it? The government will pay you to do it if you say you are disabled. Apparently, becoming fused to your couch is your life's greatest wish. I fully support you in your endeavors.

You won't listen to reason or form any cohesive argument. All of your "supportive ""information""" has been just you saying the same thing over and over again, quoting an opinion you heard once, and most of them have been meme opinions you got on /r9k/. Talking to you has been horrible. Men like you are the reason nothing gets done in the government or anywhere else. You don't want to hear reason or arguments, you don't want to entertain new ideas or opinions, you only want to be told you are right.

Well, you aren't.

But I guess it explains a lot, that you and >>35730415 have opened my eyes: Most men literally only care about sex.

So why should women care about your rights if you don't care about your own rights or theirs, outside of pussy? You might try growing up and not being so insufferably full of yourself, stop QQing over the internet that no one will fund your NEET lifestyle, and maybe you can find a girl that way.

>it isn't the man's body

It's not the man's body, but is the man's child, as much as it's the woman's child. People may say it's more hers, since she carries it, she breastfeeds it, but it's half her DNA. A woman's body is her own, but the child is a body that is not her own, it's a new person, with half her DNA.

Nobody is forcing Western women to get pregnant. There are condoms, birth control pills, IUDs, etc. Even in the case of rape, there is the day after pill.

It's a decision (or at least a known risk) to have unprotected sex and potentially create a new life.

Abortion is murder. But it's an early murder. Sometimes murder can prevent future suffering. There are people, like David Benatar, who argue that since making new people always causes those people harm, that abortion should always be done. He may have a valid argument. But people should be honest about it, abortion is murder.

>but most of the time, no one EXPECTS a man to die instead of a woman.

Titanic the movie is fiction. But "women and children first" being evacuated off the Titanic is fact.

John Jacob Astor IV, the richest passenger on the Titanic, equivalent to over $2 billion in 2016, helped his wife and maid and nurse into a lifeboat and was told "men were not to be allowed to board until all the women and children had been loaded." He died.

>The same is true for women.

Yes, women are by nature cowards. Meanwhile, women sings songs with lyrics like "I wanna see you be brave."

>Male brains do better with...
>Female brains do better...

Fine. People should just be honest about it, the fundamental asymmetry between men and women. And talking about "equality" just glosses over it. Women are not equal to men because not even men are equal to other men. Evolution does not create everyone equal, it creates everyone different, with different pros and cons.

Abortion isn't really murder. You can't murder something that isn't alive. A fetus before a certain point in time is essentially a parasite. It cannot live outside the womb. Abortions are not performed well before the fetus becomes viable, unless in cases where it presents danger to the mother's life.

The child may have half the man's DNA but it cannot survive without the woman's body. Child aside, as it is "half his" and "half hers;" the womb is all hers, and it is always the woman's choice.

Condoms break. Birth control is not 100% effective. Neither is the day after pill. Not everyone can afford any of those things, either. The day after pill is $45 at almost any pharmacy, or at least it was last I heard of it.

>"Women and children first"
>Men making the rules

Men sing songs with lyrics like "I put the 'real' in 'gorilla'" and
>Now if I fuck this model / And she just bleached her asshole / And I get bleach on my t-shirt / I'ma feel like an asshole

But not all men are like that, right? And not all women are like the instagram whores you obsess over on a daily basis.

No one is saying everyone has to be equal in ability. They are saying people should be equal in opportunity and, where one demographic consistently struggles, they should be given help because no one, not men, not women, not anyone on earth should have to struggle in a world not made for them because of the way they were born.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to make breakfast for me and bae.

>I didn't bring up anything about Silicon Valley.

I know. It's just a topic women mention like when OP talks about "oppression", as if an industry that men built should be 50/50 men/women. Women could have made the first personal computers in their garage, but they didn't. Men did. Women could have started the United States if they wanted to, but they didn't. Men did. So it shouldn't be a surprise if organizations created by men tend to have more men filling those jobs.

>Why does the government subsidize failed banks but can't pay teachers?

Because the stock market is based on fear, and collapsing banks send them into a panic.

>But I won't cheat on him, and I won't leave him. I'm sorry you've jaded yourself and ruined your sense of passion and wonder by always looking at the bad aspect of things.

I look at the odds. Based on this description:

>My boyfriend has severe social anxiety and doesn't leave the house unless he absolutely has to, he won't even answer the door for the pizza guy

Odds are, you will cheat on him before he cheats on you. That's just the nature of female biology.

>Some women want to work and not raise kids and men (and some women even) make that very hard for them. They pay less in many jobs, they won't hire women for certain jobs.

Corporate America is cutthroat. I don't know why anyone would willingly want to enter it. Capitalism isn't about feelings, it's about trading work for money, and skimming something off the top.

>You have a very pathetic view of yourself and your gender. You aren't disposable. The only people who treat you as such are yourselves.

It's not pathetic to say men are seen as expendable and disposable. It's the truth. It's also based on biological reality. Men don't give birth, women do. That is why men are the disposable sex. If a society had only one man, the population could keep increasing. If a society had only one woman, that's a severe bottleneck when it comes to the population.

I've cited plenty of examples. Women and children first being saved on the Titanic. Men dying in world wars. Men being drafted. Men expected to protect their girlfriends from threats. Men expected to fill defensive roles like military, police, firefighters, etc.

Women also expect men to be stronger than they are. Which is perfectly natural. Women value strength in men. Are you going to dispute that too?

>Women don't want the privilege of having to sit at home with kids. Well, some do, and some men want the privilege of getting to fight for their country. It's clear that you want to live a life devoid of meaning and just sit on your ass all day, so why not do it? The government will pay you to do it if you say you are disabled. Apparently, becoming fused to your couch is your life's greatest wish.

That's a lot of conclusions you've jumped to.

Let's just say that men in this day and age have more of a sense of duty than women do.

What is a woman's duty?

>You won't listen to reason or form any cohesive argument.

That women in the West are "oppressed" and have less "privilege" than men? No, I won't, because that's a ridiculous argument that flies in the face of facts.

A woman in the West can happily behave like a child, having someone else take care of her, her entire life.

>Men like you are the reason nothing gets done in the government or anywhere else. You don't want to hear reason or arguments, you don't want to entertain new ideas or opinions, you only want to be told you are right.

I'm willing to entertain the notion that male privilege is greater than female privilege. But that theory breaks down, because the evidence suggests just the opposite.

>Abortion isn't really murder.

It is. You're ending a life aka murder.

>You can't murder something that isn't alive.

A baby in the womb is alive. That's what conception makes. A new living being.

>A fetus before a certain point in time is essentially a parasite.

No. It's not foreign DNA. It's DNA is entirely human, usually 23 chromosomes from the mother, 23 chromsomes from the father.

>Child aside, as it is "half his" and "half hers;" the womb is all hers, and it is always the woman's choice.

It should be solely a woman's choice to kill a man's baby? Can you imagine if it was solely a man's choice to kill a woman's baby? How can you not see that's it's one person unilaterally deciding to kill another person's child?

A woman can decide "I don't want this" but a man can't?

>Condoms break. Birth control is not 100% effective. Neither is the day after pill. Not everyone can afford any of those things, either.

And abstinence is free.

>Men making the rules

No, that's women expecting men to sacrifice themselves for them, because again, men don't have uteruses, which you clearly think gives women more rights than men.

>No one is saying everyone has to be equal in ability. They are saying people should be equal in opportunity and, where one demographic consistently struggles, they should be given help because no one, not men, not women, not anyone on earth should have to struggle in a world not made for them because of the way they were born.

I can accept that everyone should be treated with equal dignity. But equal ability does not exist. And equal opportunity does not exist. That's just the nature of the randomness, and arbitrariness, and luck, and chance of life on Earth.

And the only 100% guaranteed way to prevent struggle, or suffering, is to not make new people in the first place. Someone could do that with abortion, which is murder. But that murder could certainly prevent future suffering. Or someone could abstain from sex.

He's talking about how men have to actually achieve things in life to become successful. A woman only has to open her legs for a successful man.

A woman doesn't have to earn a million dollars. She just has to open her legs for a man, get him to marry her, and then divorce him, and leave with a million dollars.

"Gender politics" meaning your political ideas on how genders should behave and be treated, eg, women should have right to abortion, or men should have a say, women should have equal rights, women shouldn't have equal rights, and who is oppressed or 'privileged.'

Yup, equal will never exist, is for that we have to be successful for our own person, and not by our gender. Having integrity to not be fucking before time, and actually doing things that will leave us something good (instead of searching for love and sex, which are useless for anyone younger than 29 and older than 35).
As someone who has to rip her ass off in her studies to maintain an 80% scholarship on an university, that manages a good amount of languages and that actually thinks in big and in the future, it's a complete insult to see this kind of females like >>35730614 that only talk bullshit and "tee-hee, making breakbast for my boo because that makes me a very exceptional female" without thinking that not everyone has it easy like her and that making some shitty scrambled eggs is damn easy.
I don't care if other women hate me, I know that if I'm studying, learning and even reading, it's because not only women, but some men saw on us that we were more than cumbuckets, that we could actually be useful and understand them in some ways.
I know, I don't have it all in my hand, and men struggle with so much pain, so many stereotypes, and that they get too overwhelmed by them. In the other hand, women now play the victims, when in other ages, women were enough cold and rough to actually stand all the real discrimination, and still manage to stand and go on, with what they could grab in their hands and their minds.
Men, your struggle is worse than ever, but the times are perfect to say what you feel, what you fear, and what you want women to change. You were made to be stronger in body, but not to be rocks in feelings. History made men so rough with themselves, and it's not fair. So please, speak.

>That would depend on when you think life starts.

When a sperm fertilizes an egg, creating a new human being with typically 46 chromsomes. Your whole life until now derives from that one moment in time. And the DNA in each of your cells is the same (although with age comes mutations, damage, etc).

>Yes, because it's her body. It would impact her more. Just like if a girl got pregnant and the guy wanted her to have an abortion, the decision ultimately lies with the person that will be growing/birthing that human.

It's her body that the baby is growing in, but the baby's body is its own. If a woman gets an abortion, the doctor isn't destroying her body, the doctor is destroying the baby's body.

Yes, sex does impact women more. That's why they should be more discerning who they have sex with. Women used to do that.

But if a woman gets pregnant, and she can decide, by herself, that she doesn't want the baby, don't you see that's a privilege? She can unilaterally choose to kill a man's unborn child because she doesn't want it, even if he does. And if he doesn't want it, she can force him to be a father, and pay child support for it. And he doesn't even have the option of a "financial abortion" where he can legally cut all financial responsibility for the child.

>Abstinence isn't a method of birth control.

Abstinence is the only 100% effective method of birth control.

You may be thinking of abstinence education. Which again, only works if you actually practice abstinence.

You could even argue that female masturbation is a method of birth control.

>It gives them the right to decide what to do with their uterus. Because they are the owners of those uteruses.

Doctors performing abortions usually don't remove uteruses AFAIK. A woman may "own" her own uterus, but half of the DNA in that baby's skull that's being sucked out is a father's.

The choice isn't about killing or not killing a baby. The choice for the mother lies in whether or not she wants to rent out her uterus 4 free for ten months, and suffer the physical damage thereafter.
Let's create a fair voting system: men and women each get one vote based on the child, because it is each half of their DNA, and women get one additional vote because it's her uterus.
Looks like women win.

>abstinence is free
That's not a viable form of sexual education for most people. In countries that don't preach abstinence as sex ed, they have lower rates of teen pregnancy, unwanted pregnancy, and abortion because they actually teach - wuh oh - sex EDUCATION instead of religious garbage.
People are gonna fuck. That's the end of that.

I still don't know why you're still so upset about the Titanic.

I'll say it again: NO ONE expects men to do any of those occupations. Men choose to do them because there's a need for them and the money is good and for whatever other reason people take jobs.

>What is a woman's duty?
Women want to go to work and have equal pay and equal treatment.

Modern occidental feminism looks at the issue under the wrong light. Sexism is very much alive and women live it everyday, but so do men and increasingly so as far as men are concerned.

Secism shouldn't be gender specific, but it is. Far left politics are taking a stronger hold on society to the point where it's almost faschism. In my country, a comedian was prosecuted because he made a tasteless joke about a "public figure" (t. worthless fuck who had just enough of his 3 minutes of fame to make it into a joke) who had some form of diformity. he was forced to pay 15k to the state and 7k to the family of the "victim". I'm more worried about the power of the far left when they can influence society to literally silence anyone with "problematic" opinions than just the "grrrrr the dang old sjw want to take away my weeb stuff!" We live in a time where you can be fined for a joke.

That being said, sexism will exist as long as we don't look at it in its full spectrum instead of obsessing over victimizing women so they keep their right to bitch and complain at men who are even more under pressure.

>Women don't want to marry a child because they want an adult partner.

Because adults are stronger than children. A child can't protect her or provide for her. It's natural for women to value strength. So if you ever meet a guy who has less social anxiety than your boyfriend, you may find yourself attracted to him. It's natural for women to want to trade up.

>I wouldn't fuck some asshole who hurt my boyfriend. I love my boyfriend and I want to keep him safe. There will always be people better at this or that, my boyfriend might not be the strongest guy out there, but he's very smart and very talented at what he does. So why would I trade down?

If your boyfriend lost in a fight, it may seriously affect the way you view him. You couldn't help but see him as weak, and you may seriously doubt his ability to keep you safe.

Throughout human history, think of how many grandmothers you've had. When raiders came into her village, and they killed her mate, have you thought that maybe she ended up fucking them, and that's how she survived?

And in the wild kingdom, males will often battle each other over a female (even until death), and the dominant male will fuck the female. She wants to fuck the winner, not the loser. Like you said, "why would I trade down?"

Recently there was a story about a serial killer named Todd Koehlhepp, who kept a woman in a shipping container or something, her name was Kala Brown. She spoke to Dr. Phil, and do you know how she survived? She said he raped her twice a day, but she knew he wouldn't kill her, "because he wanted me."

Your poor boyfriend will never see it coming when your female brain decides it wants to trade up.

Of course we know that you can simply perform a mastectomy and the primary tumor is gone, but who is to say that some malignant cells haven't already extravasated into the bloodstream to lie dormant for X years before metastasizing to some other organ like bone or liver.

Sure, but that applies to all cancers just the same. Breast cancer is probably the easiest to manage.

Male 'privilege' is getting blame for everything, regardless whether it's your fault or not. You automatically have to take responsibility for everything.

Female privilege is getting all the power and authority they want, but being able to immediately shun any and all blame/responsibility by saying men are the problem.

Death is normal. Death is inevitable. It's not fair that your friend died doing something noble, but death happens to everyone, and at every minute.

Give examples. Then prove its not just bantz (which men absolutely expect in a workplace and either deal with or actually enjoy)

>A man will treat a woman like shit if she says she doesn't want kids

BULLSHIT. I couldn't give a fuck what you do. The reason this statement causes raised eyebrows is because it is almost always a fucking lie "Oh I don't want kids. I'll work hard for the company" and two years later "tee hee. I'm going to have two kids and be off work for two years and you WILL pay for it". Any small business owner finds that kind of shit to be a collosal loss.

>Problem of rape!

Feminist detected - fuck off again. THE VAST MAJORITY OF CRIMES ARE NEVER DETECTED OR PUNNISHED EXCEPT MURDER. But, because you're a delicate little fembot, the crime that effects YOU must, of course, have priority.

In short, all your complaints are fucking garbage. My experience of women in the workplace is that they have been able to duck out of work by bursting into tears having "woman's trouble" and plain refusing to do literal dirty work like hauling nitrogen cannisters in the celler of a bar.

Sad cunts are just not BUILT for or PSYCHOLOGICALLY PREDISPOSED TO or socialized INTO working HARD.

Of course, I speak in generalities, some women do work hard and it is almost ALL older women in my experience, from poor backgrounds, who have no time for feminism. funny that isn't it???

Some cell types are more metastatic than others or more prone to this behavior, such as those in mammary tissue.

>The choice isn't about killing or not killing a baby

That's what abortion is. Kill the baby or keep the baby.

>The choice for the mother lies in whether or not she wants to rent out her uterus 4 free for ten months

And that choice was when she chose to have sex.

>women get one additional vote because it's her uterus

Abortion doesn't end a uterus, abortion ends the life of a baby (which is half the mother's, and half the fathers's).

>That's not a viable form of sexual education for most people. In countries that don't preach abstinence as sex ed, they have lower rates of teen pregnancy, unwanted pregnancy, and abortion because they actually teach - wuh oh - sex EDUCATION instead of religious garbage.

Abstinence isn't religious garbage. There are no babies without sex. You could say abstinence education is ineffective (when people don't practice it). But that's like saying that sobriety is ineffective (when people don't practice it).

>I still don't know why you're still so upset about the Titanic.

It's evidence of my claim that society views men as expendable, "women and children first."

>NO ONE expects men to do any of those occupations. Men choose to do them because there's a need for them

Oh so there's a need for them and women don't want to do them?

>You just seem to envy the housewife lifestyle

Go watch Ali Wong: Baby Cobra. She envies the housewife lifestyle. She realizes that going to work is for suckers, and staying home is better. That's why feminism is wrong.

>Women have more privilege

Like the privilege to kill a man's baby without asking him?

>Women can be children and do whatever they want all the time

Yes, women can have men provide entirely for them.

>Men are expected to XYZ

I already gave plenty of examples of that.

>Men are oppressed

I never said that. Although men are outnumbered by women. And being subject to the draft is certainly close.

Well of course. And a dead persons genes would indicate they're human as well, but not a living human. The arguement isn't whether or not a zygote or fetus has genetics indicative of being human, but whether or not that "human" is "alive".
You're conflating your arguement with amputees and abnormalities, but its more akin to being brain dead on life support. A vegetable isn't a viable human.
>>
>>35732028
People don't die from not having legs, you mongoloid.

People who are on life-support literally could not live one minute without the machine supporting them. Their loved ones are asked to make the choice about pulling the plug. Is this murder? They are still human. More human than a clump of cells. Yet, they aren't viable, they can't breathe and have no brain function, the same as a fetus before X weeks of pregnancy.

What about this scenario: A mother gives birth to conjoined twins. One of the twins has all of its parts and functions, the other does not have its own heart and only has part of a brain, and is really only a mass of limbs sharing a body with the first twin. It's technically alive, and its DNA is very human, but it cannot survive on its own. If the mother chooses to have the nonviable twin removed from the viable one, thus making life easier for the viable one but "killing" the nonviable one, is that murder? Is that unforgivable?

If you'd remove the no-brain twin to make the normal twin's life easier, but wouldn't abort a child in the first trimester of pregnancy, then you don't have a well-formed opinion: You only spout back what people have said to you.

I kinda of get where you were going until you mentioned rape. How often do you think full blown rape happens? As in not that creepy beta-fuck putting a hand on your leg and you thought it was totally gross XDXDD. I'm not complaining that every time I go to a crowded bar some low IQ gorilla pack decides to beat me up because I looked at the silverbacks girlfriend the wrong way.

Complaining women have a hard time getting in STEM is the same as saying males have a hard time getting into pre-school teaching or nursing. At least women won't get called a pedophile and preemptively fired for doing their job in STEM. I'd argue that women don't get called a pedophile at all unless they've actually fucked children with a mountain of proof to back it up, and even then a lot of people would just go NICE!.

Women that don't want children are supspicious to me, I've heard that line three times now in that company they worked for and the moment they got a change the baby machine went on an we were down a worker that still got paid. After 2 or 3 years of cashing in pregnancy leaves with papa government protecting them from being fired they quit because they don't have the energy to work anymore with the children and all teehee.

As for men who accidentally impregnate women, I could accept an argument that he should be responsible for providing for it.

LMAO Men commit crimes more often than men, and that's fact.
Men make up 92% of gang members.
https://people.missouristate.edu/michaelcarlie/what_i_learned_about/gangs/gender_composition.htm
Men represent 90.5% of all homicide convictions, 89% of robbery arrests, 83% of arson arrests, and 77.8% of aggravated assault arrests.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_differences_in_crime#Statistics
(The last three statistics were in the year 2011; all statistics are from America.)
Life doesn't jail men more. Men get themselves rightfully jailed more.
No one is forcing any man to work at a sewage plant, or scooping cow dung. If you don't want to work it, then don't work it.
No one expects men to die. You're just saying the same old shit the other anon was saying, and yet have no proof.

>preemptively fired
Wot?
Anyway, according to statistics - from several sources, not just the controversial CDC report - Almost one in five women is raped at some point in her lifetime. 43% of straight women report sexual assault that was not rape.

Annually, rape costs the US more than any other crime at a staggering $127 billion. I'm guessing this goes towards rape kits, other medical treatment, psychological treatment, and the costs of finding and convicting the perpetrators, but I don't really know what all goes into it.

I used to go to a drag queen bar when I was newly 21 in my hometown. There were always cops there. I asked them once if they were always there to see the show or what, and one of them told me that almost all of the city's reported rapes came from straight women being drugged and taken home from that bar. Needless to say I stopped going, but he says it happens at a rate of once every other week or more, consistently.

>a lot of people would just go NICE!
Literally whom? That has never happened.
I do think it's a shame that men are discriminated against for childcare professions. It is a sign of the times. Some people ruin it for everyone. I wish there was a way to fix it, but I think it's more important to ensure kids are safe than to force some elementary school to hire a male preschool teacher. I think the market dictates this more than anything. If a bunch of parents find out there's a male running a daycare, many of them might pull their kids out/not enroll their kids there for fear of the worst.

Women are allowed to change their minds and have children, mind you. It's a shame that they have to con an employer into paying them maternity leave because of the way America treats maternity concerns. It is hard for the employers, but it's hard for the women, too.

>>35731812
>It's not a viable human at that point.

But it is human. A baby does need a womb as a life support system. But that doesn't mean it's moral to kill living beings that need life support systems. Like a scuba suit. Or space suit. Or ventilator. Etc.

The baby may not have a consciousness at that point. But that doesn't mean it's moral to kill living beings that are unconscious. Like someone in a coma. Or someone who just got knocked out.

>You're confusing 'baby' with 'zygote' and 'fetus'. They're three completely disparate things.

And all of those words are used by pro-choice people to gloss over the fact that a human being is being killed. It doesn't matter the words, you're destroying a human life. A baby doesn't begin being human after it leaves the birth canal.

That's why it's called "pro-choice." Because "pro-murder" sounds bad. It's marketing speak. It's political correctness, where you twist some uncomfortable truth and give it a cute name like in advertising.

And if it's OK to end a human life in the womb, why not outside the womb? Why stop there? If it's OK for women to kill unwanted babies before birth, why not after birth? Isn't this about getting rid of unwanted kids? I've never understood how abortion is morally acceptable but infanticide is not.

>But not acting isn't the same as acting with precaution.

There's no such thing as "safe sex." The only 100% guaranteed way to not have kids is to not have sex.

>Not a baby, hardly a father. In abortions prior to six weeks, there is no identifiable human. Just lumps of cells. No skull, no viability, just a DNA smoothie.

Hardly a father? 23 of its 46 chromosomes of from that father.

And the human body itself is just a collection of cells. You, are just a collection of cells.

And smaller than that, the body is about 3 billion billion billion atoms. Is murder justified because the human body is just billions of atoms? That needs the life support system of Earth to live?

Was a particularly gynocentric complaint. Folks, you've just got to see the part where she literally compares it to being a first responder on 9/11!

Of course, these two bleeding-axe-wounds have yet to explain why women have never achieved fucking anything of note in history (although I strongly suspect that when they read this they're going to wheel out all 5.5 female inventors in the entire span of recorded time) and why, indeed, women continue to use their overwhelming voting power to perpetuate a system that is, apparently, ONLY FIXABLE by their voting power.

Which only really says that women are paid less, combined with the fact that single mothers get tax breaks for her children that men don't get because there are very very comparatively few single dads.

>>35732304
I'd have to look at the facts on that. I don't doubt that it happens, but more than gender disparities are disparities in sentencing based on income.
My hypothesis is that a rich person who commits the same crime as a poor person will receive less jail time if any at all. I actually cannot find any reputable study on the subject, but there are many on racial disparities, which could be drawn along the same lines based on racial disparities in income.

I wish things were equal for both genders, I've said it so many times and people just ignore it because they want to fight.

The answer is very simple:

>Women as individuals, and even more so as a collective have much greater social access and privilege than males.
>Women use this greater social access and power to promote a victim-mentality ideology which garners them more privilege and status
>Women are not so much concerned with objective truth as they are with using language to get what they want
>Most men are powerless in this arrangement and are forced to submit to female power, so they grab what little power they can, at the expense of other males

See, the one in fives statistic seems like complete bullshit to me. Great you spent a lot of time in a bar where people tended to get drugged and raped, but that doesn't make the one in five statistic true.

Here's the report most people base the claim on

http://www.aau.edu/uploadedFiles/AAU_Publications/AAU_Reports/Sexual_Assault_Campus_Survey/Report%20on%20the%20AAU%20Campus%20Climate%20Survey%20on%20Sexual%20Assault%20and%20Sexual%20Misconduct.pdf

Their definition of rape besides the legal definition also includes
>(3) coercive threats of non-physical harm or promised rewards
>(4) failure to obtain affirmative consent.

I'll leave it open to your own interpretation but I'd urge you to think about how many of those 20% of women experienced these acts rather than actual rape. I'm not trying to downplay rape here and sympathize with its victims however slinging around statistics from facebook / huffington post articles isn't the way to go.

Other than that could you elaborate on the way America treats maternity leave? Because to me if you aren't able to take care of a child financially then you shouldn't be having them.

Also imagine if you were working in STEM and people would suddenly not buy your companies product anymore and would very openly and without shame tell others that it's because a woman designed those products. There would be a complete and utter outrage! Yet with men in kindergarten jobs it's pretty much socially accepted.

>>35731872
>Do I really have to explain to you why adults don't want to have romantic relationships with children?

No. But women will compare men to boys or children if they find them weak. It's the weakness they're averse to.

Although recently there has been quite the trend of older female school teachers having sex with male minor students (and even smiling about it).

>I don't need my boyfriend to keep me safe.

Spoken like a woman who's never been in danger in her life.

>But if someone did that to my grandma, and they had a kid together, I'm almost certain she was raped, not voluntarily having sex with someone who destroyed her family and livelihood.

That's the thing, though. Women today are the product of all those rapes in the past. Which explains the prevalence of rape fantsies among women:

>A 1974 study by Hariton and Singer[1] found that being "overpowered or forced to surrender" was the second most frequent fantasy in their survey; a 1984 study by Knafo and Jaffe ranked being overpowered as their study's most common fantasy during intercourse. In 1985, Louis H. Janda who is an associate professor of psychology at Old Dominion University[2] said that the sexual fantasy of being raped is the most common sexual fantasy for women.[3] A 1988 study by Pelletier and Herold found that over half of their female respondents had fantasies of forced sex.

>A study of college-age women in 1998 found over half had engaged in fantasies of rape or coercion which, another study claims, are within the normal range of female sexuality.

I know the contentions with the study, but unfortunately there is no way to weed out false rape claims from the real ones. Also, I would consider
>coercive threats of non-physical harm
rape, but not
>promised rewards
But I guess everyone sees it a little differently.

I'm a woman, I have only two female friends and one of them was raped by someone she knew when she was a teenager. She also knows someone else who was raped. So, it doesn't seem that far-fetched to me to think the 1 in 5 statistic is close to true.

>Because to me if you aren't able to take care of a child financially then you shouldn't be having them.
I personally agree, but you can't really be telling people that because then it becomes eugenics. Things come up, medical care is especially expensive, especially for women with complications, and even a lot of employers don't pay maternity leave at all, even if you're only gone for two weeks to pop it out. With medical costs and the costs of a new baby, not everyone can afford to take more than two weeks off work with no pay to foster bond between parent and child and to breastfeed, see to complications, etc.

Money shouldn't be an object for people hoping to become parents when procreation is quite literally the meaning of life. Before you ree: I don't mean that the government should subsidize all children, but rather that a couple should be able to take time off and still get paid in order to do their bit to further the human race and ensure great childcare.

In Norway, which recently unseated Denmark as "Happiest Country on Earth," new parents get a combined 49 weeks of maternity leave at 100% pay, or 59 weeks at 80% pay, and men may take up to 14 of those weeks themselves.

If you adopt, you get 46 weeks at 100% pay, or 56 weeks at 80% pay, because they value familial connection - probably part of why they are the happiest country.

The argument seems to be that since a baby at a certain age cannot live apart from its life support system (the womb), that it isn't deserving of life, it's not a viable human. It's simply a way to dehumanize the baby that's being killed, to avoid feeling bad or guilty for killing a child.

But needing a life support system to live doesn't make someone less of a human.

As a baby is to the womb, humanity is to Earth. Humans can't live apart from the Earth. Humans needs that life support system to survive.

And I reject the idea that all offspring, in all species, are merely "parasites." No, they're offspring. It's how they propagate their DNA.

And yes, regarding a conjoied twin, or a braindead person, I think it's murder in both cases. But sometimes murder is justifiable, like if it will prevent future suffering. Euthanasia is murder, but death is the end of suffering.

And women can start their own companies if they want to be CEO. Not even men go around expecting to just ask to be CEO.

And if women got paid less than their male counterparts, every corporation in the world would immediately fire all men and replace them with women, because they only care about profits.

Canada. Quebec specifically. Look up Mike Ward and Jeremy Gabriel. Jeremy is a dude who, at one point, when he was like 6 years old, sang for the pope. He sings like shit, never took singing lessons, but because people are fucking pussies who are afraid to offend special snowflakes, everyone jerk him off and it resulted in his ego being super inflated. To this day he is convinced he is a good singer and stupid ass pussies jump i n front of all the bullets when people criticize him.

Then a comedian by the name of Mike Ward made a joke about him. IMO it was pretty damn tasteless, but really, I don't care, nobody should care, if you don't like a joke, that's it, move on to content that makes you laugh. LITERALLY a fucking decade later, jeremy is an adult and he decides to prosecute Mike on the claim that the joke was the source of his bullying even though literally everyone had been making fun of him ever since he sang fir the pope. Nigger don't seem to understand the risks of becoming a public figure.

Jeremy won, the state won and with his new fame and attention, he started his "singing career" again.

The hypocrisy in this is that the whole province took the side of charlie hebdo when they got assaulted for their tasteless humor directed at islam, but when a comedian makes the same tasteless kind of humor against a disabled person, everyone's heart bleed for the attention whore. French Canadians, my own people, are hypocritical racist fucking pussies. We are weak, spineless.

The funny thing is Mike is considered a trash offensive comedian by our standart when, in the states, he's pretty General public. He makes jokes about anal sex and swears a lot and everyone flip their collective shit at him, we, also, have zero sense of humor.

>Regardless of whether or not it's a human, the question is when does life start.

It's a human. And it's alive. Human life begins at conception, like all species that reproduce via sexual reproduction.

>I'm just going to assume you don't know what a baby us at this point

When a woman says she's pregnant, she's pregnant with a baby. You can use whatever other terms you want in order to dehumanize a life so you don't feel bad about killing it, but it's a baby.

>No, they're scientific designations of the process of growing a human.

Yes, and human words and categories are arbitrary symbolic vocalizations and symbols attemping to divide a reality into divisions, but life itself is a process.

"Species" is also a scientific designation. But the problem is where to draw the line, which is often arbitrary, and these classifications are only made up in the human mind.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Species_problem

To point out how arbitrary it is, there are 4 species of giraffe, which came about due to geographical separation, and yet there is only 1 species of humans, despite human begins having even farther geographical separation, over many more tens of thousands of years.

>You keep missing the "viability" issue, huh? A collection of cells, even human, does not equal a viable human. If you're a nofapper or some kind of fundamentalist, then "spilling my seed" is murder. All those potential humans lost, all those cells dying.

Viability is the ability to survive outside the uterus. Whether or not a baby can survive outside the uterus determines viability, but it does not determine if it's a human being or not, and it does not determine if it's alive or not.

And no, "spilling your seed" is not murder, because sperm only has 23 chromsomes. Sperm and eggs are haploid cells. Human diploids cells have 46 chromsomes.

Human life begins when two gametes meet and form a diploid cell. At that point, a woman is pregnant. She is "with child."

Working a job is about trading your time, effort, work, and sometimes even dignity, for money. If you don't like the working conditions, you can quit. Your salary is what they pay you so you don't leave.

I'm not excusing it, but if you don't want to be around a certain environment, then don't.

And yes, men are expected to do all kinds of things. Nobody makes people try to meet expectations, it's just expected, it may even be unspoken. Some implict obligation or duty is perceived to be "owed."

>Men reward women's bad behavior.

Women's bad behavior is largely cheating. Men don't reward women who cheat on them. But women will reward men who beat them. And women will reward men who kill other people.

No. Corporations only exist to make a profit. So corporations are always looking for ways to cut costs, and increase profits. If they could pay women less for the same work as men, all corporations would fire all the men and only hire women, looking for cheaper labor. Just like if a corporation can outsource their labor to a foreign country where people get paid pennies, they will.

That's why the "wage gap" myth is nonsense. And mostly based on the fact that women simply choose to pursue lower-paying college degrees, and women choose to pursue lower paying jobs.

>It's not a baby until it's born

False. Is that what pregnant women always talk about? "My fetus"? How's my fetus doing? Would you like to know the gender of your fetus? It's a baby. And abortion kills a baby. Abortion is murder. However, sometimes murder is legal.

>NO ONE is arguing that blastocysts and embryos aren't human. They are technically human DNA. However, they are NOT alive, they are NOT viable, and it doesn't matter what you think or not, by definition, it isn't murder.

They are alive. Cells are life. Single-celled organisms are alive. Once a woman becomes pregnant, she has a human being growing inside her. And whether a baby is "viable" or not, doesn't mean it's human or not. Abortion is murder, it's ending a life. It's ending the life of an unwanted child. So why stop there? Why not kill babies that have been born but are unwanted? Why not get rid of unwanted humans?

>Go back to yokel city. You will not fare well outside of your religious cult.

I'm not religious. But abortion is murder. It's an early murder, but it's still murder.

You still haven't answered the question about whether a guy punching a pregnant woman in the stomach and killing her unborn baby would be chargd with homicide or manslaughter.

It's not A human, but it is human. It's not an individual formation yet, just a collection of cells. And you're right, those cells are alive, but those cells don't make a viable fetus, let alone a baby (which is what a woman finally gives birth to, until then it's gestating and developing).
>Yes, and human words and categories are arbitrary symbolic vocalizations and symbols attemping to divide a reality into divisions, but life itself is a process
That's some nonlogic, the stages of human development are bogus and arbitrary because life is a process, why define the stages?
There's a giant difference between you and a fetus, or you and an elderly person, or you and a child. There's a big difference between pubescent and pre pubescent, but why differentiate, it's arbitrary. There's a big difference between infants and children, but they're all in the same process, so don't pay attention to arbitrary designations; so go ahead and give your infant children's Tylenol. I'm sure everything will turn out great. Development is a meme, pass it on.
>Viability is the ability to survive outside the uterus. Whether or not a baby can survive outside the uterus determines viability, but it does not determine if it's a human being or not, and it does not determine if it's alive or not.

The whole thing is very insulting, since I know I haven't had a life of privilege and yet people just don't fuck off with that myth.

I don't think women have no problems, it's just that women receive far more help than men do for their problems. And men protect women and side with women, they don't protect or side with other men.

Finally, a lot of people assume that just because some men have it easy, that means we all do. That is another misconception in western society that is very damaging to men. I don't have an amazing life just because Trump or Rockfeller are badasses and they happen to have dicks.

I haven't refused to acknowledge the man-made arbitrary, conceptual stages of human development. But those arbitrary stages are used to justify killing unborn babies, destroying human life.

I just know what ending a human life looks like.

And there's a difference between killing aka murder, and the legal definition of "murder." And I don't think most murderers are charged with murder, they're charged with homicide or manslaughter.

The stages of prenatal development are hardly arbitrary. You must not have kids, you must have never been pregnant or gotten someone pregnant, because that development is HARDLY arbitrary.
>Just that people should be honest about it
People are honest about it, you just refuse to listen because you somehow deemed the truth arbitrary because humans and pesky science.
I'm not even sure what your last paragraph means, it's pretty off topic. Murder is the act of homicide, willfully taking a life. Manslaughter is unintentional homicide.

>It's not A human, but it is human. It's not an individual formation yet, just a collection of cells. And you're right, those cells are alive, but those cells don't make a viable fetus, let alone a baby (which is what a woman finally gives birth to, until then it's gestating and developing).

A baby in a woman's womb is a human. It's a separate entity, an individual, with normally 23 chromosomes from mom and 23 chromosomes from dad. A baby's life begins at conception.

The human body is "just a collection of cells." But that's just an attempt to dehumanize human life, which then makes it easier to destroy. As if destroying a baby is like skin cells sloughing off.

Whether a fetus is "viable" or not, why does that matter? Do you think it's murder to kill a fetus that can live outside the womb, but it's not murder to kill that fetus a day before?

It's a baby before it's born.

>That's some nonlogic, the stages of human development are bogus and arbitrary because life is a process, why define the stages?

You can make up words for stages, but the problem with language is that it tries to create artificial divisions, slicing reality up into "things" with clear borders, when there may not really be clear borders. You can name every wave in the ocean, but it's a dynamic system, words are static, like trying to freeze time.

>There's a giant difference between you and a fetus, or you and an elderly person, or you and a child.

They're all humans at different levels of growth. But we don't say that killing a child is not murder, but killing an old person is. Does someone's size determine if they've been murdered? No, someone ending their life does.

>It doesn't determine whether or not it's human, but it determines if it's A human. An individual apart from its mother.

A baby is an individual with a unique genetic code apart from its mother, which gets nutrition from the mother, and also can even send stem cells to help repair a mother's damaged cells.

>The stages of prenatal development are hardly arbitrary. You must not have kids, you must have never been pregnant or gotten someone pregnant, because that development is HARDLY arbitrary.

Development is one thing, making a new label for every day of development is another. So yes, the "stages" which are basically abstract labels, and how many stages you divide gestation into, are arbitrary.

And no, I don't have kids, and I probably never will. Because bringing someone into existence will always bring them harm. People who have children are throwing an innocent child into a cruel world haphazardly, and they have no idea what pain or suffering or trauma that child will endure before it eventually dies.

"If a child, for whose existence I was responsible, were to ask me why he or she were here, what happens after death, whether I could guarantee he or she would not suffer a fate like that Furuta Junko suffered in 1988/89 (please look it up, as there's no room to describe it), what would I say? To me, the fact I have no answers that would not be guesswork, evasion or dogma indicates that having children is selfish and cruel." -Quentin S. Crisp

Abortion is murder, but it's an early murder that can prevent future suffering.

"It is curious that while good people go to great lengths to spare their children from suffering, few of them seem to notice that the one (and only) guaranteed way to prevent all the suffering of their children is not to bring those children into existence in the first place." -David Benatar

Benatar for example is extremely pro-abortion, he thinks all babies should be aborted, in the interest of minimizing human suffering.

>People are honest about it, you just refuse to listen because you somehow deemed the truth arbitrary because humans and pesky science.

Destroying a life is murder. Without sex there would be no death. All conception begins a death sentence.

>A baby in a woman's womb is a human.
But the thing in a mother's belly isn't considered a "baby" until further in development.
>Whether a fetus is "viable" or not, why does that matter? Do you think it's murder to kill a fetus that can live outside the womb, but it's not murder to kill that fetus a day before?
If that's how you want to reduce it, sure. Time gestating plays a role in development, and after a certain amount of time, the fetus is able to viable live outside the mother. Before that point in development, it's status isn't viable.
>You can make up words for stages, but the problem with language is that it tries to create artificial divisions, slicing reality up into "things" with clear borders, when there may not really be clear borders
But there are clear borders. Maybe you're not looking.
>But we don't say that killing a child is not murder, but killing an old person is. Does someone's size determine if they've been murdered?
There's no difference between killing a child and killing and elderly person, but there's a helluva big difference between removing life support and killing an individual.
>baby is an individual with a unique genetic code apart from its mother
Unique genetic code=/=a viable individual.

Here's an idea, don't throw them in haphazardly. Try teaching them the skills and foresight on how to navigate this cruel world, and hope that your addition makes the world less cruel.

Yeah, a "love story" about two retarded teenagers who killed themselves in a tantrum because mummy and daddy didn't like their new bf/gf.

They're equally retarded stories, one is just written in a flowery outmoded language that you think makes it special.

>But the thing in a mother's belly isn't considered a "baby" until further in development.

It is. Pregnant moms' talk about "my baby." People doing ultrasounds talk about "your baby." If women have a miscarriage, they "lost the baby." Maybe doctors say "fetus" because they're trained to use the Latin medical terms for things, knowing jargon helps demonstrate they're worth what they get paid, plus "cold" terms like that may help doctors care less and not give into sentimentality, be more clinical, try to be more objective.

People talk about a "fetus" because it's dehumanizing and easier to kill a "fetus" than "kill a baby."

>Time gestating plays a role in development, and after a certain amount of time, the fetus is able to viable live outside the mother.

Yes, viable means whether a baby can survive outside the womb or not. However, a baby's viability status does not determine whether it has a right to live or not.

Do human beings have a right to life? Without that, how can there be any other rights?

>But there are clear borders.

Well, different body parts develop at different times. A baby's heart beat starts at about 6 weeks. I clearly think it's better for an abortion to happen sooner after conception than later. It's also better for a baby to be murdered in the womb than much much later in life.

>There's no difference between killing a child and killing and elderly person, but there's a helluva big difference between removing life support and killing an individual.

An elderly person might have intense suffering daily, and death might be a relief. And removing life support is killing someone, but it's certainly more justifiable if a person has no hope of improving.

>Unique genetic code=/=a viable individual.

A unique genetic code means it's a person being killed during an abortion, it's not just about the woman's body. The baby's body is being destroyed, it's life is being ended.

No parent can know the future. You could raise your kids perfectly, give them all the opportunities in the world, and one day they could be abducted, raped, tortured, and brutally murdered. Parents may not have committed all that harm, but they made a person would could suffer all that harm.

"Procreation expands the horizons of suffering and is therefore ethical misconduct. It provides the space where evil is done." -Miguel Steiner

No parent has children expecting the worst that reality has to offer, parents are delusionally optimistic. And yet, all parents condemn their children to die by conceiving them. "Every cradle is a grave."

"Assuming that each couple has three children, an original pair's cumulative descendents over ten generations amount to 88,572 people. That constitutes a lot of pointless, avoidable suffering. To be sure, full responsibility for it all does not lie with the original couple because each new generation faces the choice of whether to continue that line of descendents. Nevertheless, they bear some responsibility for the generations that ensue. If one does not desist from having children, one can hardly expect one's descendents to do so." -David Benatar

The root cause of suffering isn't people who harm others, it's parents who make new people who can suffer.

Anon said women are better with language. They are not. They are better at talking quickly.

Of the greatest writers throughout history, most are men. There isn't even a woman considered the "female Shakespeare."

Modern women will complain that they simply didn't have the opportunities that men had in history, as a way to excuse the dearth of good female writers. But I think it shows more a lack of inventiveness, since the female brain is smaller.

The greatest male philosophers throughout history didn't ask for permission to write what they did. They just did it.

Abortion is babykilling. Get over it. I never said it should be banned. But it's still murder.
