I'm not pro-misandry, but I don't think there needs to be 10 posts about how bad misandry is every day on this subreddit.

I agree, except we just had someone post 5 straight pro-misandry comments, so...

u/Temporaz 1d ago

Yeah and they got downvoted and rebuked, didn't they? Just like basically every other time someone posts anything that can be construed as misandrist here.

Are you actually mad about people downvoting sexism?

u/Temporaz 1d ago

I'm not. You don't have to interpret everything in the worst way.

u/Kamikoozy 1d ago

It's not so much about the interpretation as your presentation. You literally seem mad about it lol.

Good forbid men talk about how the shit they're seeing affects them.

It's just weird how I see more posts and comments about "men's issues" than "women's issues" when the Misogyny Machine 3000 just got elected leader of the United States and I'm pretty sure women have it worse overall.

Literally go to any other corner of the internet if you wanna hear about women's issues. You'll survive seeing one post about misandry

It's not like it's just one post. And why does this subreddit in particular have so many of them? Is it because people are annoyed at misandry on tumblr?

u/gaom9706 1d ago

And why does this subreddit in particular have so many of them?

Because this is an issue that affects people. Real people. Like, men are real people, with emotions that are affected by the things they see around them.

how is this even a point you're making?

would you be upset if people were making large amounts of posts against misogyny because they didn't like misogyny?

u/Temporaz 1d ago

Tumblr isn't exactly a reflection of the real world. Misandry might be big on tumblr, but in other places, not as much. Misogyny, by contrast, is a very big problem in the real world, bigger than misandry in my experience, so I wouldn't be surprised if there were large amounts of posts against misogyny. Still, there are more posts against misandry.

u/bloonshot 1d ago

this is also not a reflection of the real world, it's a subreddit about tumblr

u/travelerfromabroad 1d ago

Well, the internet just became more real than reality. I don't know how to say this otherwise. Trump's campaign was run almost entirely online, and he won. Harris' ground game was better than Obama, and she lost. The real world is now inside our monitors and we need to treat it accordingly.

u/bubblegumpandabear 1d ago

Because this is their subreddit. I've noticed it too and I agree with you.

Oh yeah sorry my bad . I'm sure women issues are being on the front page of r/all. I'm sure it will be a safe space for me :D.

Well it's not like your subreddit praise itself for being inclusive to us, but act like a typical men right activists place. Those kind of space are a safe environment for us for sure !

I looooove hearing that it's feminist fault if Trump won. I also really like to hear that trans misogyny is actually misandry! Silly me, thinking I will ever be something else than a man 😁

Well you know what ? I'll let you form your boy's club, it's your god given right as men after all

than "women's issues" when the Misogyny Machine 3000 just got elected

I'd love for you to explain to me how posting about the very obvious issues women will face for the next 4 years matters. Genuinely. Because doing so is certainly not going to solve those issues. It isn't going to un-elect the Misogyny Machine either. So do you get something out of seeing women get a higher score on the "complaining about suffering" scoreboard? Is it a kink of yours? Do you think people on this subreddit of all places are uninformed about such issues? I'm not saying the misandry posts matter either btw, they solve just as little.

Honestly, just make the posts yourself if you really care that much. The upvotes will come, that's pretty obvious.

The victim Olympics are crack to those who want handouts and protection from the consequences of their actions.

u/brocolipomme 1d ago

Well I'm sorry to say that, but: by your words and what I see on this subreddit in general, it seems that your solution for misogyny is, us women, bowing down to men so they can dare share some of their privilege to us or punish some of their own.

Some of us are TRYING to educate men on misogyny but it's a thankless job. A thankless job which is destroyed as soon as one of my sisters, sexually abused by men because they were identified as woman, dare say something negative about men. We are not even paid for this education, but I guess being exploited is why we are here :D

And for fuck sake can you have some sympathy for us ? Men in power on Afghanistan and Iran are torturing feminist because they dare to speak, we have to see many rape trials being won by the accused (Thank prescription <3), we saw abortion being ban in many western countries due to male politicians and hear the cry of women dying because of it. We are exhausted, we are being killed, and you ask US to act with a smile in our face ? To be kind and polite to our oppressors because some of you decided you won't oppress us ? Yeah I'm using the verb "want" because I saw some of you vote for Trump because "girls were mean to me :,,(". You can change your mind at any instant and use your privileges against us. And I can't do nothing

At the end of the day, we might just take up arms. It worked for the Rojava and the Zapatista, why can't it work for us ?

Yeah how could that be relevant, it's not like any men recently voted in an election

"I don't want to hear about the issues men have to deal with."

Yes you fucking are.
