| I just wish I can ramble now. Also, I wish I can have a talk with those who are trying to detract my own thoughts in life (parents,counselor,etc). I grew up being told and believed that there is God who is in control of everything. Now, I'm tired and I don't want to accept the way things are because... |

| It's more like a first world/western problem I guess. And even though we all understand that extreme terrorism and violence is never good, these are men (or maybe sometimes even women) who feel emotionally/socially disenfranchised. Some on here have displayed this already and the only thing they rec... |

But what "un-factual" things did I really say?
I didn't say any outright lies. |

| Why is it that people in most places and forums only say that the future will be so much better than the way the world is today? I don't even really think we are necessarily "better off" than in previous times during the 20th century, if not even a little worse. Let's see the trends presen... |

| I do believe that this sort of tension of resentment/envy expressed might be connected to the "gendered"-fication of statistics and research. This is my personal theory. But, it's funny how most men have been told to be silent on issues affecting them by attacking them as hating women, no... |

| I think the answer is never to curtail the choices a woman has over her body, but to educate people on the value of the differently-abled to society. If society were more inclusive of people who were different and recognized the value of people who contributed differently due to their different abi... |

| I've heard some men cite longer female lifespans as a reason for some of their resentment or envy. Social isolation is known to shorten lifespans but females, on average, out live males across all demographics, social classes, and cultures when we adjust for death from unnatural, causes and childbi... |

| I still believe it's legitimate for men to not want to put up with outdated stereotypes actually still the norm today. That's not hateful or disrespectful to the opposite sex. There is probably some form of confusion in these kinds of discussions. |

| Chronos, can you still give us direct examples of what misogyny your talking about? And, guys who come here to vent about certain frustrations or gender stereotypes/double standards are replied to in a way that comes off as thinking that guy must be hostile to the opposite gender anyway. That's what... |

We have had MRAs here spouting nonsense that rape by men hardly ever happens and they can't see why th... |

| I don't know if MGTOW or the whole "manosphere" can be directly compared to the side of feminism, it's more of a defense. If certain women's groups want to play the game of radicalism, why can't/won't certain men's groups play it the same way? |
