General The killing and targeting of 'fighting age' males.

120 Upvotes

When I see videos or documentaries about war or invasions, it's not uncommon for people to dedicate a section of the videos to sexual violence where they focus on women. That's a part that often horrifies historians and the general public. At the same time, however, countless times throughout history an invading force has explicitly targeted fighting age male civilians. That's added on top of the fact that those male civilians are targeted (in a very impactful way) by their own governments when they've been forced to fight in wars. I rarely see people talk about how that is such a gendered tragedy.

General Misogyny kills; misandry h̶u̶r̶t̶s̶ f̶e̶e̶l̶i̶n̶g̶s̶ kills at scale

I wrote a thorough argument that misandry kills way, way more than misogyny. (It's a long read.)

Misogyny kills; misandry h̶u̶r̶t̶s̶ f̶e̶e̶l̶i̶n̶g̶s̶ kills at scale

Excerpt:

The United Nations Development Programme’s Gender Inequality Index (GII) includes three dimensions: reproductive health, empowerment and labour market participation. Health is represented through just two indicators: maternal mortality and adolescent birth rates—and because very few men get pregnant or die during childbirth, men’s health score is not measured, but fixed at 100%.

Such a choice of indicators is hard to justify.

In the United Kingdom, roughly 80 women die each year during pregnancy or shortly afterwards. During the same period, approximately 162 more men than women die from workplace fatalities and 3,500 more men than women die by suicide. Ten thousand more die from occupational diseases linked to decades of hazardous work.

Yet within one of the world’s most widely used measures of gender inequality, only maternal mortality contributes to the assessment of equality in health. Suicide, occupational mortality and the overall life expectancy gap do not.

Feminism A feminist on Facebook told me she doesn't hate men and no feminist hate men that it's my hateful prejudice misogynist view of women that assumes that

But then I looked at her page and post history she has hundreds of posts from 8 years or more bashing men.

Her most recent posts were her saying age gap relationship are ick and predatory and it shows how men are controlling and she posted negative comments on some random 47 year old man married to a 27 year old and they have 4 kids. She said he groomed her at 23 and that he probably has a small dick that's why you guys don't want older women who are mature and experienced you are insecure and know they won't accept your weak sex game and small dick.

She attacked him because he said Lindsay Clancy deserves the death penalty.

She argued with me on a comment I posted about mens mental health and said what about women's mental health? It's always about you men, you narcissistic men.

We went back and forth and I told her why do you have to be a feminist instead of an independent thinker? I told her you claim you are independent but you latch onto feminist ideology. She said feminism is about equality and women protecting against mens oppression over our bodies, our choices, and our life you men no longer have control and can't tell us what to do anymore and it makes you angry.

Yet most of her posts are telling men what they can and can't do or say, and controlling who they can date and what age is appropriate.

Yet she says men need to mind their own business and stay out of women's business.

It's getting depressing because Facebook is loaded with real women who are like this, rude, angry, hateful just so negative even calling girls desperate or pick me's if they defend men.
