I just got banned from r/menslib a leftist sub about mens issues. While I feel you do paint to broad of a picture of feminism as there are many who support trans and take mens issues seriously cannot disagree with you on how the way we talk about gender being absolutely toxic and damaging to its own cause. It treats all other liberal mens subs like the enemy and feminist subs that absolutely hate it as allies.
And when you, as a man, try to explain what pushes boys away from the left they just shrug and say patriarchy/entitlement/capitalism instead of really talking it. And when they acutaly do talk about stuff like male abuse victims its often about how it makes men more dangerous.
I swear that sub would support Noam over Mamdani
Lemmy could probably do it better. But I not the person to do it.
We will not win men back to the left until we admit that young men are guilty until proven innocent… but young men will be assumed guilty until proven innocent as long as women feel unsafe around them…
So both problems need to be solved at once.
I am not heartless or believe that women don’t have reason to fear men.
I mean men think that being friend zoned is a tragedy? How must that poor woman feel thinking that she had just made a valued friend and all along he only saw her as a hole.
We cannot get Egalitarianism until we solve the problem of men and women not feeling safe around one another. And I don’t know how to fix that.
Men are scared they’ll be labeled monsters if a social interaction goes badly women are scared that they are being seen as a living fucktoy with no other purpose but to be fucked… and it’s hard to convince either group they’re wrong because neither one is.
And the worst part is as a trans woman. I have the worst of both worlds, am I going to be seen as a fuck, a felon, a freak, or a friend? Because I legit cannot tell how another person sees me.
