Do men need a license to be allowed socialise (MOD NOTE IN OP)

Still struggling with the concept of what a discussion board is I see. Maybe Facebook would be more to your taste.

Furiously ignoring the question about things that have negatively impacted your life in the last ten years.

Your avoidance is telling.

Eden Heaslip was a young man who took his own life after being bullied by other students. Prime Time gave the opportunity for his parents to talk about what he had suffered and you are using this to have a go at women in general, some women in particular and to show that you don't understand what is happening with respect to legislation.

Helen McEntee is literally in the process of bringing in legislation to target hate speech which is being designed to include hateful messaging on social media platforms, which is a form of bullying many people experience. (Legislation that many who are decrying suggestions that men can help women feel safer also don't want to see introduced by the way).

Why didn't you ask where are the Simon Hariss's, the Stephen Donnelly's the Leo Varadkars? I've frequently said on here that one thing that cannot be disputed with female activists is that they do raise their voice, stand up and support each other. But your post is telling that you see that as a being part of a 'woke crew' or an agenda of some sort. I think that is why we see virtually none of the people who argue on here against women's advocacy or against the hate speech legislation being introduced actually contributing in a positive way to conversations about men and their issues and how they can be helped. They see that sort of thing as being virtue signaling, or woke, or whatever and they would sooner suffer themselves and continue with others of their gender suffering rather than have to put in the effort calling for meaningful change or have it so that people can say that they are woke/virtue signaling etc.

The young (and old) men of the country would be in a much better position if those who claim to be concerned that no one is fighting for them actually put effort in to doing just that instead of only using them and their suffering and pain in an attempt to stop others advocating for women. We saw the same thing earlier in this thread with Michael Tormey's name being used only to try to get people to stop talking about Aisling Murphy. I for one don't believe that those who used his name on here stopped to think about his family for a second but only saw an opportunity to deflect from the suffering of the Murphy family. Shameful behaviour if you ask me.

Two things to say about this.

Firstly, thanks for giving another example of where all of a sudden men are concerned about womens sports only when they can use it to fight another demon in their eyes, that of trans rights. I would suspect that the reason women don't comment so much about this is because for the most part, it is not a big issue in that the number of trans people who actually do this is very small in the greater scheme of things. I am actually of the opinion that testosterone benefits pre-transition cannot always be overcome and I suspect if the numbers dominating, as you say were problematic, then women in general would look at this and act in their greater interests.

Secondly, if you weren't scared of the concept of feminists, maybe you could ask them yourself.
