What feminism is dealing with now is the superstructure of patriarchy which produced the conditions where women were able to be dominated through legal means in the first place, and how that superstructure perpetuates a social masculinity which is negative for everyone involved @valeriaa

This makes no sense if you're talking about the u.s., women are a protected class here

```Nearly a third of U.S. women have experienced domestic violence```

idk wtf 12 is talking ab

And that disproves what I said how?

wot

Not you

Men go through domestic violence as well. It's almost like feminism today takes problems that affect both sexes and pretends it's only women who have to deal with them, which does nothing to truly combat these problems.

in some countries men can't be raped according to the law

The male rape victim is a myth

every teenage boy

@Cobra Commander It doesn’t though

Feminist theorist have discussed the male-victims of sexual-abuse visibility

And a large part of why people aren’t as aware of the fact that boys and men suffer from sexual abuse as well, is because of our masculine culture

Boys and men are less likely to report that they’ve been sexually assaulted, raped, or harassed, and it’s absolutely related to how masculinity is experienced and understood in the Western psyche

Like I’m a cis dude and it took me actual years to come forward with the fact I was molested twice, because I was afraid it would harm how I was perceived by friends and family. It’s a type of fragility which is shunned in our current toxic masculine culture, and rather than act as if women are the only people suffering from this type of abuse, feminist are engaging with why we lack visibility.

And what does “women are a protected class” even mean?

I’ve never understood what weird MRAs mean by this

they believe the world is 'gynocentric', especially family court, custody, etc

I'm not an MRA or a feminist, but I think various groups have good points

I would lean somewhat 'rad fem' if i were a woman

who are the leaders that you feminist listen to?

Ben Shapiro.

The example of women typically gaining custody of the children in divorces is true, but that doesn't mean I believe the world is "gynocentric" (I was talking about the U.S.) nor does it mean I am an MRA. The situation that you described yourself as being in, that being a victim of molestation and being afraid to come out to friends and family, is by no means proof of there being a "patriarchal superstructure" and is anecdotal evidence, as girls can endure the exact same thing *and* there are people who weren't as afraid to talk about it, as well as there being families that vary in terms of support (I am sympathetic however). And this isn't saying that I think the U.S. is favoring women exactly as opposed to equality, but there are factors here that go against the whole "patriarchy" narrative that need to be addressed more often. Not to mention that "toxic masculine culture" is I'll defined in and of itself.

@fuck12moredeadcops First wave cancer... I mean feminism

1. The batchler tax
2. Prohibition and terrorism
3. White fethar movement
4. Wanting to vote with no draft or net tax

u can use all the fancy words u want, but a the end of the day facts are facts and laws are laws

like the facts i stated above

or the fact that women get much less prosion time for the same crime, if they are even sentenced in the first place

theres a lot more but i need sleep

Although in fairness men do typically hide their feelings more than women, though that isn't *so much a societal thing but instead a natural tendency.

It's definitely a societal thing

Mostly

Not really, that's how men tend to behave psychologically. That isn't to say that men *can't * be conditioned to not show feelings either in societies, that can and has absolutely happened, but it's definitely not a mostly or intrinsically societal thing.

at least for me, i barley showed my emotions, but not i don't at all because of society, i think it's a mixture of both
