I feel the same way about it.


 

Do the actions of one insane person reflect that of the majority?

 

I'm suuuuure you do.

 

Here's the thing. There are a LOT of men who think like him. They might not go on shooting sprees and write up 141 page manifestos, but there are a lot of men who sincerely believe that women and other people who aren't male are subhuman and should be viewed and treated as such. That they should all be killed off for no reason other than their gender, or over petty reasons like the shooter's. If given the chance they would more than likely do exactly what this Elliot kid did. Don't give me that "not all men" crap, that's just another perfect excuse men use rather than acknowledge the shit we go through and pretend everything is fine. It's great that you personally don't do this but in no way does that mean every other man out there is like you.

 

It's so tiring seeing that excuse every time a woman posts/talks about her negative experience(s) with men. Seeing men pretty much say "lol your feelings towards this are invalid for x reason stop talking about it". It doesn't get us anywhere. It doesn't stop anything. Misogyny isn't somehow erased completely just from men saying that. Women are still going to get harassed, raped, murdered, all that JUST BECAUSE WE'RE WOMEN. We just want it to fucking stop already. We don't want to be scared of men anymore in case he actually is like this guy and other woman-haters. We don't want to be viewed on the same levels as pets or trash anymore. Is that too much to ask for!!

 

Also yes okay there are women out there who attack men and are actual misandrists but in no way is it on the same levels as the shit we have to go through daily from men. The shit that we've been going through for I don't know how long and will keep going though until the wonderful day where men everywhere stop and realise "you know, this mindset is absurd and dangerous so I should stop acting in this way and excusing it when other men act like this". Speaking of misandry, stop for a minute and think why they hate men.

 

You know? I would keep going but I'm not going to bother. There's absolutely no point in it. All you guys are just going to reply to my post saying things like "wahhhhh noo you're all wrong!! *shits my big man baby diaper*" or just fucking disregard it and laugh it off as nothing because of my gender and/or age.

    The original video was just some dumb virgin trolling.

     

    No... the original video was a severely mentally ill serial killer discussing his revenge on society for his supposedly shitty life. 

     

    It doesn't matter if he targeted women, badgers or anyone with a bolo tie on that day, he's mentally ill and his actions cannot be justified. He killed people (and women) because he was insane and wanted to kill people. Not because he didn't get laid.

     

    In fact, a lot of people don't get laid and get by just fine (@Adam springs to mind).

     

    I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to prove, but there are far more men who have serial killed, both in general and for sexual- or gender- related reasons.

     

    You asked me for an example of a female serial killer who wrote a manifesto about how they hated men. I gave you the closest I had, a female who ruthlessly killed men for fun. 

     

    I'm trying to prove to you that nuts exist on both sides of the fence and there is no argument to be made that either one is more prevalent or more dangerous than the other.

    If you truly think that there are a high number of people who live in this world who, given the chance, would re-enact the actions of Elliot Rodger then you are gravely mistaken.

     

    Most men do not hate you and most men are not misogynists. Stop thinking they do, it is damaging to everybody involved.

    Even so, I would be shocked to see the same type of comments if a woman committed the same type of mass murder. They'd probably be about her appearance, instead.

     

    I'd say it's more likely that it's down to immaturity and the relative anonymity and distance which comes with posting on the internet than it is to do with glorifying the actions of one unstable person and actually believing the same things as he espoused. We already know that a lot of men are stupid (proportionally more so than women in my experience) and we all also know that people post things on the internet for attention which they don't actually believe.

    Au contraire, your lack of facts and absolutely insane points e.g. "most men would do the same as elliot rodger given the chance" have proved mine.

     

    You must live a very sad life if you're constantly checking over your shoulder for that horrible cis het shitlord who's coming to kill you today? How many times has it happened? 

     

    You're still here so I guess it isn't that much of a danger for us to all worry about.

    We'll see about that. Depends on what I work. I went out with @Scot for a beer once, but I find @Adam to be a bit more creepy. I'm sure most of you will agree with me. It's the eyes. In any case, I can take my brother with me. He can't murder me if my brother's there.

    I was seriously just talking about meeting you because I'll be in San Antonio next week when I have my LASIK surgery. I'm more awkward than I am creepy -- or something.

    Let's keep discussions civil, and responding to people's actual comments, rather than making hyperbolic references to members' lives.
    This is clearly a contentious topic, and it'd be a shame to have to hand out warns.

    Are you telling me you don't believe that forced penetration is rape? Because by their definition, it isn't.
    The reason I used the 12 month column is because there simply isn't enough data for proper lifetime male rape (and forced penetration) statistics.
    Men are something like 3 times less likely to report a rape and even when they do it has to fit the definition of a rape which doesn't include forced penetration.
     

     

    Feminism is the empowerment of women. Egalitarianism is equality.

     

    Feminism is a political movement aiming for equality of the sexes through the empowerment of women to the same status of men. Egalitarianism is not a political movement, it is a philosophy and I'm tired of people who don't know about either trying to pit them against each other.

     

    As for the rest of this thread, I think it's funny that women are in here telling their stories and all they get in return is:

    How about men to the same status of women? Is that on your agenda too?

    As for your comic, how would you react if I stated that ALL women are insane when they're on their period?

    Of course you'd deny it and you'd use yourself and your friends as an example.

    What would your reaction be if my response to that was: It's great that you personally don't do this but in no way does that mean every other man woman out there is like you.
