Ok now were getting somewhere....do you really think the message that women are "done taking this shit" is meant for anyone but the people doing the "shit"? I don't read them and think they are talking about my dad, or 90% of the other men I know. I assume the rapists are target.

I was addressing this tweet. According to your reasoning, we assign responsibility to a group and this justifies not seeing the fact that men are the greater victims of violent criminals than women because both are men.https://twitter.com/simple81/status/1050226311384453120 …

“Why stop at the 2nd stage if you want to fix it?” That’s an interesting assumption you make there Helen.
-
Huh? She is stopping at men and not narrowing down to criminals. You can only fix the problem by addressing criminals, not by addressing men.
-
I mean the part where you assume she wants to fix anything. People like that usually don’t - in fact, since fixing it would make their cause célèbre vanish, that’s the last thing they want to do.

I am very cynical for one so young.

This is a No True Christian argument though. We can’t “take it up with criminals” because by definition the criminal labels doesn’t get affixed until AFTER they do crimes. “Hey could you not do the rape you just did?”

It also has a discriminating effect on women. So, if you just make the assumption that criminality is a thing men do; when a woman commits a crime, we're more shocked because it breaks the narrative & there's plenty of evidence to say women receive harsher sentences as a result,
-
There is?
-
Nope, you're right. Just looked it up. I remembered from years ago there was evidence to suggest women get longer sentences for heinous, violent crimes; but it looks like, overall, men do get harsher sentences.

I've been a man all my life. The thought of harming women repulses me. I'd rather die that do that. So would most men. The idea that we can learn something from outliers is not helpful, and comes from a place of reactive fear, not a reasoned desire to fix the problem.
-
Well historically, that is what men have done. Die on behalf of women and children. For their freedoms, liberty and protection. But you'll very likely not hear that mentioned too often.....
-
Of course not. Until I'm proven wrong, this narrative is coming from a small minority of people with very bad intentions convincing a larger group of people, who are scared of men, that they have a right to be afraid, rather than getting stronger and mastering their phobia.
-
Yep, the more
#feminists frighten young western women (the most privileged in the world) into thinking they are victims, the more they increase their power base. I wish those same young women could open their eyes and see how they are being used as pawns for pure political gain. -
Which makes it extremely important in how we respond. A lot of them are acting out of fear, and simply calling them crazy is like telling them to shut up when they think there's a killer in the closet. It's not the approach that will be listened to.
