Dog owners are only weird if they treat their dogs like people, e.g. dressing them in ridiculous outfits, feeding them people food that can be bad or toxic to them, and are 100% convinced that they know and understand everything their dogs are thinking and feeling, but dogs don't think like humans, they think like, well, dogs. Which is thinking only slightly less so than most humans from the looks of things.

Or, they treat their dogs like fashion accessories instead of living creatures, which is even worse.

I agree, lostonearth. I also hate those who breed and train dogs to be vicious and those who parade their poor dogs (and cats) around like show ponies. I think cat videos are more fun than dog videos, because people train dogs to do idiotic, scripted tricks. Cats are free to just be themselves, much more fun to watch.

I believe in the red pill. I don't think men have the same rights as women because men don't have a say in a baby if the woman gets pregnant. If she wants an abortion or wants to put it up for an adoption, too bad for the guy.

There are lack of shelters for men who are in a domestic abuse.

I think the reason why the red pill has a bad rep because of the type of guys who use it so now lot of people think men who have swallowed the red pill hate women and are abusive and a mysoginist and see them as objects and are "nice guys". Makes me wonder how lot of people feel about women who believe in the red pill.

I think men should have more rights and I do take rape seriously for guys and domestic abuse. No it doesn't mean I think women shouldn't have rights and it doesn't mean I think women should be controlled by men and should be abused.

I think hate speech should not be censored.

WTA tennis is boring to me at best. I love watching the ATP, particularly Roger, Rafa and Denis.

I agree, League_Girl. Anyone who is abused should be able to avail him/herself of a shelter.

Cassie Jaye seems to be easily brainwased. First it was religion, then it was feminism, then it was the MRA movement. What's next Cassie? Gonna interview some other niche group and become one of them too?

Yes all this stuff is legit. I totally accept that men have problems. But there is too much female and marriage bashing going on on those forums. There is a whole lot of women are the enemy stuff going on.

It doesn't take into account that there are good women on this planet and that not every one with a vagina will screw them over. It makes me sad because I know guys who are in happy, loving marriages and I want what they have for these poor bitter men that have been hurt.

I know not everyone wants to get married and that's fine. But the top thread in the L&D section of voice for men is keep educating ALL MEN NOT TO MARRY which to me seems extreme. Let individual men make their own minds up. It's like the total opposite extreme of enforced priestly celibacy.

But turning on women isn't the answer. Everyone seems so divided and angry and aggressive towards each other these days.

I don't think there is enough attention given to the causes of suicide among the elderly. Most studies of suicide focus on young people, but the elderly are equally, if not more vulnerable. I knew older people who were devastated following the loss of a spouse, friend or pet, sometimes all in a short period of time. Often seniors are lonelier and more isolated than other groups.

That is not an unpopular opinion, just that a lot of people treat the elderly like they are invisible.

I agree. It's very sad. The suicide rate among elderly men, 75+, is actually the highest of any group. I think the situation among the elderly is especially acute because they have so much more to lose and their health grows increasingly frail. They also, as you say, tend to be forgotten and isolated.

People are entitled to think anything they want, even if is sexist racist or homophobic, but what they can't do is use it to harm or persecute other human beings, and if they do they must be stopped. In a way commensurate with the force of their attack.

Personally I think these prejudices are irrational, and could be classed as personality disorders. They obviously are not well. Let's get them in front of shrinks when they get nasty.

I couldn't watch more than 20 seconds of Rick and Morty without becoming completely disgusted and bored.

Conservatism is oppression, especially for non-neurotypicals, the LGBT community, non-Caucasians, and pretty much every other minority group. No one who belongs to one of these groups should in their right mind endorse or support conservatism.

I believe that someone who is not an NT cishet white Christian male can choose to adopt a conservative political vantage point. I won't criticise them for it, but I will criticise conservatism. There are many conservatives who are genuinely racist/homophobic/transphobic and there are those who are centre-right and tend to support freedom of expression while criticising the offensive vitrol some on their general political wing spew.
