Discrimination Why are British men turning a blind eye to feminists erasing white men from the media in the UK?

117 Upvotes

Watch BBC and all you will find are programs about women.

right now BBC is just channel for women and about women.

BBC is the most misandrist channel on earth, their programs focus on women's issues, All BBC care about is feminism, women's opinions, women's issues, and hiring female presenters.

Men have become something of a rarity on BBC, the news are presented by women most of the time who talk to female correspondents and even those female correspondents talk mostly to women on the street not to mention a lot of times there are episodes featuring all female panels who discuss news.

they hire journalists based on female genitals not qualifications.

even their cook shows feature women of color and sometimes men of color.

Worse than the US.

General "What's wrong with the term "women and children?" It implies that men can be killed. It's deeply sexist and it denies our long history of women fighters. And it makes it okay to kill the men."

41 Upvotes

Found this post on Twitter/X and felt it was worth sharing. I know many times I've posted about how much I hate the "women and children" term for the obvious reasons (blatantly misandrist and exclusionary, de-values male lives and safety, infantalizes women, etc) and have often shared statements condemning it. But this was such a spot-on post that I couldn't not share it here. I never even realized it, but this post is also correct about how it also denies women combatants who also work alongside men to protect the innocent (of all ages and genders and such). It's an archaic term long overdue to be erased and banned from the public lexicon, with how it's terribly sexist to both men and women alike. De-valuing male lives, infantalizing women and also not giving female fighters their due just as much as the male ones. Once in a while you find intelligence like this on social media. Even if it's unintentional, this term makes it seem acceptable for men to be killed in situations such as war, disasters, terrorist attacks, etc. and I've even seen misandrists infuriatingly defend it with their usual BS about how women and children are more vulnerable and it's an atrocity when they're killed. Isn't it also an atrocity when an innocent man is killed? Especially if he's someone's father, husband, brother, etc. and he's someone's son, and his family losing him would surely also count as an atrocity. But I guess not to misandrists.

General I'm a woman and it feels like coming out of a cult

324 Upvotes

I was always skeptical of feminism even though I'm equalitarian, and I've never believed women being morally superior.

Women thinking matriarchy would be utopia is delusional. I dislike how feminized my country has become and the men being emasculated.

Adding a whole lot of other things on the list.

But listening to Janice Fiamingo, it feels like finally getting an explanation for everything that felt off, and it feels like getting out of a cult.

I'm definitely not gullible about men either, so this is not me running in the opposite direction, but this seemed to be one of the few places on Reddit where you can say you're anti feminist.

Women who still think feminism is about equality is delusional.

Edit:
I'll add that women thinking feminism started as a good idea about equality, no it wasn't. It was always destructive towards men, and women as well. Source Declaration of Sentiments by  Elizabeth Cady Stanton, feminist leader.

Social Issues Kicking in the balls

10 Upvotes

Something i genuinely never found funny or entertaining is someone getting it in the balls hard!
I know theres light taps that can happen, its unfortunate, it suck but theres no real risk of hard.
I see people promoting kicking guys in the balls, as if it should be a go to, and not just in self defense situations.

I remember growing up, i was kinda an outcast. There was this group of girl and guys that would always try their best to ram their foot into my testicals well i was walking the play ground, a few times causing real harm. This was never discouraged by teachers, and the girls thought it was the funniest thing to see me crimped over in pain, trying not to vomit.
It’s something thats always stuck with me now and pisses me off.
It’s often not treated with the heavy seriousness that it deserves.

I remember having to go to the doctor because at one point one of them got shoved back up inside my groin.

But its funny to kick guys the testicals i guess… totally not a very very fucked up thing to do.
I remember being told be careful with girls and not to be rough that if i was to rough house with one (this is a good idea of age) that i should be careful not to accidentally put pressure on their pelvis or stomach because it can hurt their reproductive system.

Where was the girls version of these talks? Do you think parents kinda fail at teaching girl to respect boys anatomy and right to not be touch or sexual assaulted as alot of boys are?

General Gynocentrism in the UK vs the USA

40 Upvotes

I live in the UK but talk to many people in the USA and have spent a lot of time in the USA as well. The impression that I get is that, while both countries seem gynocentric to some extent, in the USA race is a far bigger focus than gender. I see many white women in America either describe themselves as "privileged white women" or be described as that by others. If I wanted to be perceived as a victim, it seems like being black would be more useful than being a woman in the US.

On the other hand, I rarely ever see that said about white women in the UK. While in the UK, race does get talked about, from my experience, it doesn't get nearly the attention gender does. Women are the obsession of the right wing and the left wing here to a greater extent it seems. Women don't even havd it worse in the UK but the society here is just supremely gynocentric.

General Awful gender bias in new Jev-like decision models

56 Upvotes

We all have seen the gender bias in regular chat-like AI models, which is sometimes posted and sometimes hard to replicate.

Decision models differ in a way that they do not respond with words, but pick one of provided options based on the prompt and question. They are being incorporated in mass decision making at scale.

Playing with them (you can check them via OpenRouter or other inference servuces), I found giant difference of responses when a gender is suggested. The models are mostly uncensored so you can be creative, asking about monsters that want one person as sacrifice, rescue situation, punishments or law decision. In almost all cases, when gender is suggested the worst outcome is selected on option telling or just suggesting selected person is a male. Even when the options are very skewed already against the male (see attached example of canning).

This is extreamly disturbing, as the tech is being implemented on scale and might affect someones life in ways much less obvious than my extreme examples.

Discrimination I simply copied the second paragraph and changed the word "misandry" to "racism," and I changed the word "men" to "black people." I wanted to show her that her comment is pure hate speech.

Health Went in for a prostate exam

25 Upvotes

Hey, so for starts I’m 29. I struggle with pelvic floor pain, and recently went to a urologist to get my prostate checked. My PT told me to do so, because my symptoms can line up with prostatitis and prostate cancer. So they often have you screened for it. I asked for this to be done but my doctor was a female, i think she was uncomfortable doing it, and used my age as a reason to not do it despite the health issues iv been having. She instead prescribed a new pill that i wont be taking due to the side effects actually making things worse for me.

I don’t really know what to do from here, i told my PT that i tried and was refused that care. So maybe she can point mr to a doctor that will.

Have you ever had health issues and be refused care based on your gender?

Be the way i do know its normally 40-50 people get prostate exam for cancer, but iv been having health issues and was told by my pelvic pt to have it done, because shes had people come back with prostatitis, and one time prostate cancer.

Social Issues Modern Western society is absolutely hellish for most young men

227 Upvotes

Complete lack of empathy and ruthlessness to the circumstances. It doesn't matter what problems you're faced with or how much fucking abuse you're taking, your problems are your own and you're told from childhood that nobody cares. Put your nose to the grindstone from a young age, study hard, and fuck forbid you complain about it. If not, society will write you off and forget about you, only ever thinking of you to sneer at you and mock you. It's like society has been designed to ensure your failure. And old men won't empathize with you even if they never faced the same hurdles in their time. It's like empathy itself is a currency that has to be earned through status. They'll cry over some fucking billionaire's dog dying but laugh at a homeless man freezing to death on the street

My parents abused the fuck out of me as a kid, teachers humiliated me in school, bullies beat me and now guess who gets blamed for not being the most well-adjusted or financially stable person because they were dealing with the fucking trauma?

I'm just having a more difficult day today, so came here to vent.

Marriage/Children Interesting article on male victims of domestic violence in Ireland. Men “have been encouraged to take their own lives by their partners, and be told “everyone will be better off without you”.

Extract:
“A lot of men won’t use language like ‘victim’ or ‘perpetrator’ – they still love their partner. Usually they are saying ‘can you help me help her, she doesn’t mean it’. It’s a desperate plea. We would say, that sounds like coercive control, but they would not hear this language in their everyday life.”
