    Making the exception for young boys stumbling across it has me wondering if this was a post on child pornography. The extreme punishments would make more sense too.

          There’s a group of rabid crazies that think that a woman can never consent to having sex with a man (because of the patriarchy). In their minds, any man who has sex with a woman is a rapist.

          It’s ironically one of the most sexist beliefs against women I’ve ever heard.

            Ah yes, “all piv s*x is rape (and/or) unnatural” (they would ACTUALLY unironically censor the word ‘sex’ in their verbal diarrhea) posts.

            I remember seeing them getting more and more attention like ten or so years ago.

            …Sometimes I wonder if the political shitstorm we’re enduring today is at least partially backlash against that in particular.

            Like, the fascists print that shit out and frame it and say “this is what we are uniting against” and that’s how they convinced so many normies to follow them. Fuck.

              It’s definitely a factor. I’m quite left leaning, but even I agree with them on a good number of points. Thankfully I’m capable of dissecting it further, so wasn’t drawn in. I can easily see how boys and young men could be.

              We spent our whole lives being told we needed to apologise to women for oppressing them. That women had it worse than us and things needed to be evened up. Meanwhile, we were often worse off than they were, and got no additional support, other than being told to man up and/or being laughed at, with a dose of “how does it feel”.

              Best I can tell. Feminists look at the top men and compare them to the average woman’s situation. They also make a lot of noise about the privileges men have, but are suspiciously quiet about the responsibilities linked to them. Women need their own space, but any male space is evil, and must be destroyed.

              Fyi, I’m also aware that it’s a small minority of feminists, but they have a disproportionate voice in the media.

                I just remember the “male tears” mug photos that went around as response to any grievance boys or men posted about

                  Can you imagine the reverse? A “female tears” mug, being used to mock a woman after domestic abuse. It would have caused an unbelievable amount of outrage! The fact that the situation has deteriorated enough that I’m not sure it still would, shows the flaw in the mentality.

              I don’t think you’re wrong that it contributed. If nothing else, the GOP used it in their brainwashing to brand all liberals as being like them.

              I literally heard Fox News use that logic not long ago to say that liberals are the reason why a child molester claimed he was trans when arrested for flashing children in a locker room.
