What's the toxic female equivalent of Andrew Tate?
LMAO let's not pretend like places such as /FemaleDatingStrategy don't exist. Misogynists and misandrists are two sides of the same coin. If I have no problem saying that misogynists like Andrew Tate are shitheads, then you can admit that man-hating misandrists are also shitheads.
And don't you start telling me "Oh, but woman-hating misogynists are worse" because then the conversation turns in to the "Oppression Olympics" and all people do is focus on arguing about who has it worse instead of focusing on actually fixing anybody's problems. Both misogynists and misandrists are bad, and both should be condemned.
FDS has nowhere near the same reach as Tate, or other manosphere influencers.
Yes, they are both dicks. But one group has active control of the most powerful government on earth.
Stop. Right there. That's all you need to say.
Cut off that other crap about men "running the most powerful government in the world". I guarantee the average man does not "run the world". I sure as hell don't. Do you? No? Then stop.
No more saying "My side has it worse, so your side doesn't deserve to have your problems addressed", neither gender should have their very real problems ignored.
There are no winners in the "Oppression Olympics", only losers. The first step towards not being a loser is to stop thinking like a loser.
It's giving "All Lives Matter"
Oh? Because I've experienced domestic violence at the hands of a woman.
Are you telling me that my life does not matter?
That’s the reason I hate that saying so much.
It’s just a true statement. All lives DO matter.
But the hateful sub-text of the saying basically poisons compassionate people against what, in a vacuum, is just a basic moral value I hold dear.
I'm vegan, too. But I don't feel constrained that the utterance "All Lives Matter" now has negative connotations when delivered outside the context of universal empathy. People who say "All Lives Matter" are not expressing empathy, and struggle to access theirs. It's disingenuous, they DON'T think that all lives matter.
Yeah, looknat the SAVE act and whose voting rights will be impacted by that. Women and transpeople, mainly. But they want us to think they are wittle victims because no one wants to be around a fucking bully. Amd they make fun of women's loneliness epidemic no problem - the cat lady rhetoric. So they can stuff it.
Great point.
The Female Dating Strategy users back on the old site.
That sub was satire. If you didn’t like it, imagine how life is all the time for women.
