Female oppression of males

    Long storied history of men oppressing women of course.

    Little discourse in the way of female oppression of men however.

    I have little doubt this is a contentious and controversial subject, probably sensitive to many forum users for any number of reasons.

    In fact for many it could be considered so outside their realm of consideration they're probably just like,

    By example it's commonly known there's intra-gender oppression particularly amongst females where there's the consideration of promiscuity at hand;

    "Slut, harlot, flea-bag" etc.

    What does that center around, do ya'll think?

    It is, it's just so accepted at this point is become almost subliminal.

    The general male to female dynamic, that form of oppression is much easier to identify;

    Female to male oppression seems almost counter intuitive given physicality etc.

    Which has most of us questioning, "is this really a thing?".

    Centres around woman put each other down


    Feminism was supposedly to drag all (men & woman) up to an equal footing and to be welcomed imo



    It has somehow transformed into self proclaimed feminists screaming abuse at young wans on twitter for not wanting short haircuts

    You can guess the poster by the thread title, it was only going to be one of two.

    Op, if ever anyone needed to be impressed by a female, it's you! How does this stuff even enter your head?

    That’s because it’s still to come. It’s been ramping up in the last decade or so.

    Hmm. Is LaptopGremlin and MrFegelien the same person perhaps? Now THAT'S controversial!

    I know the lockdown is making people more than a bit frustrated but OP, there must be something else you can do other than posting this drivel in After Hours. If you actually wanted a conversation on this odd topic then maybe Humanities might have been the place for it.

    Still early, but I'm nominating this for most underrated post of the day.


    So many supposed 'feminists' (when in reality they're nothing of the sort) use it simply as an excuse to justify misandry.


    Not that it will ever tarnish the work of all those heroines throughout the 1900's who campaigned for equal rights for woman, e.g. the right to vote; but it has somewhat tarnished feminism as a term, though not as an idea.

    You should have stuck to prostitutes and all the "high school chicks" you claim to be banging, Laptop.

    We've had the right to vote well before the 90s!

    In hindsight that was a terrible mistake*

    If the laptop gremlin and Mr Fegelian were the same person he's surely an absolute legend..

    Ignoring the latter part of that post (which is seriously f*cked up to say the least), this f*cking stigma towards prostitutes p1sses me off to f*ck. What f*cking difference does it make to anyone if 2 consenting adults have sex with each other just because there's money involved? Why should either party feel guilty or 'dirty'? So long as all parties (the one obvious party in particular) are doing so of their own free will 100%, what bees wax is it of anyone else's? Yes human trafficking exists, but it's only one side of that particular coin. There are those that willingly choose to engage in having sex for money, and if you're too stupid to accept that then do the world a favour and f*ck off onto one of Elon Musk's rockets to Mars. Heavy handed tactics like a blanket criminalisation do not work, and you only end up doing more harm than good for both victims of human trafficking and those that choose to have sex for money.


    The Elon Musk part not aimed at you Leg btw, just a vent towards the general attitude towards the whole thing.



    Digressing a little but this shaming black and white attitude enrages me.

    Most people who are feminist have no interest in being unkind to men. There are some arzeholes out there who are feminists. If you enjoy the sport of gender wars then you can focus only on them and you're set.

    If you care about men and women and addressing the various issues that affect them, then you could focus on that. One indication of caring about the issues is to support lobby groups for those issues. An indication of enjoying the gender wars is to thank a post which characterise feminism as being about twitter-shouting at women with long hair.

    I've quoted this because it's shorter. I wasn't judging prostitutes or those that avail of their services. The OP has a history of starting incoherent threads about prostitution, that was where the reference came from.

    Yes dear

    I agree

    I fully understand/support you to make your own decisions

    I'd don't actually frequent boards that much.

    Who's the other poster it may have been?


    But I guess it shows the different kind of headspace someone like myself vs someone like yourself is in, the different lifestyles we lead, different everyday experiences we have - ultimately different way we think and perceive the world.

    How does it enter my head?

    I'm blasted with it err'y time I walk the high street.

    Humanities is a dead forum, nobody posts there.

    If it's contemporary issue and not related to a specific discipline/trade, AH is the only forum for it.

    The heartbeat of boards.ie is AH

    I finger blasted some random chick off the street yesterday.

    lol

    U believe that shit?

    ....

    You want the details?

    Hard to believe, I get it, given the potential for internet bullshit.

    I suppose I mention it as a means to highlight just what I outlined above - different headspace, different lifestyle, different responses etc.
