it confuses me that people think it's irrational for a female to fear men because she's scared of sexual assault, which is a thing that happens a lot now a days, but it's rational to fear shark attacks, which hardly ever happens ever.
that was dramatic. still ready 2 die tho!

Well they both have a thing in common. They are famous because they are shown in movies.
No one ever feared sharks or clowns before Jaws and It, as well as no one gave a damn about Rape or abuse till like, Hostel or something of the sort (eg girl with dragon tattoo). Simply, if it doesn't sell no one cares.
And feminism sells really well, so the companies use people to fight for a cause that practically has ended tens of years ago.

.-. pretty sure the survey was targeted at men.
It's asking for men's rights demographic.
The majority of them are activists for men's rights.
If I handed a survey out regarding women's rights, I'm sure the majority are going to be females who fill it out.
I've lost my pieces.

How is that survey targeted towards men? It's just a survey about people who are activists for men's rights. It just so happens to be a bullshit movement filled with misogynistic men. Real feminists fight for the small but important disadvantages men face within the social word and federal level.

First things first sauce.
You should be kinda you know, aware that people fighting strongly for women's rights are in large, women.
Other than that, I suppose women's greatest enemy are 20 year old underage kids.
Supposing thats true, that can only mean that:

Women either don't get raped that much
Or
Women's stance on women's rights will cause tons more women to get raped soon.

Either way, well, you know. You should change the women's movement tactic to like, disappearing

of course women are largely going to be fighting for women's rights

its like, people see the word feminist and think of the word misandrist

i am a feminist.
i want gender equality.
i want all equality.

and the "disappearing" part? of course i'll fight against my movements. i'll ally with so many more.

it's like religion. have your beliefs, just don't force them on people. don't hurt people in the process. then we'll be just fine.

So, someone volunteers in a charity shop. Let's call this person Alex.
So Alex has a special pen, to check to see if the money is fake. Alex checks every note handed across the counter. Most of the customers are honest, but Alex must still check every note with the pen.
Just because, there is always that one, cold hearted person who will use a fake note. If Alex missed the fake note, there would be consequences. For Alex, the other volunteers, other people too. The police probably would be involved.
Alex uses the pen for every note, to minimize the chance of a bad note getting through.

I am too glad I erased my opinion on this Argument, both sides seem to generate at times. Not saying all times, irrelevant and un statistically sound information, man oh man.

I'm going to infact talk a little bit on here, do you understand how much businesses have to compromise to uphold public images to quieten the masses that argue about either side in a career? The recent thing about those diversity reports or whatever they are called show the fact that because of this, some people may lose out because their number doesn't look good on a pie chart or bar graph, and no I am not saying that every black, Hispanic, or aisian person, or woman is unqualified to do the job and I'm not even going to talk about a minority, sometimes the company will genuinely have to throw themselves on the road so that we can look at their graph and think that they look as diverse as an interracial convention, the ones that don't go out of their way are something I have not looked at enough diversity reports to discern from companies like apple and such.

Incase anyone thinks that gender matters in the courtroom, for a small example of how the justice location works in a scenario where the judge's opinion does matter I suggest you watch an episode or two of judge Judy.

I'm not going to touch on social discrimination as that is sure to go into a long and drawn-out argument. And about the upwards graph, that is like asking the English about the possibility of voting in the Scottish nationalist party, a survey of largely men will vote largely for men, not because of misogynism, but because we are selfish, all humans generally have that trait, I'm sure if the beginning number was more even then the two last ones would be more diverse, and white teenage boys have no mind outside who had the best car, who has the best sex, who has the best girlfriend, who has the most swag, and who's having the most fun, generally, not a good margin in America, not at all, what state or if it is not in America then what country is it in? Out of curiosity.

Generally I think the section of the graph proves something of a totally different sort, the age section and the political issues one, it's that teenagers, and those even yonger are the worst possible people to be around, not even teenage boys, teenage black people or teenage girls, just teenagers, the fact being that it's a statistic that if you take a step back, can be stretched across quite a wide range of the whole group instead of social and legal inequality which varies through location and workplace, the mindset of teenagers seems to be a statistic we can count on. And that mindset is perhaps something to blame.

Anyway, I don't plan on replying to anyone who testifies against this post, unless I bite the hook that is cast for me, but feel free to add to points or deconstruct them to use for your own argument that deals with too wide a margin of the population to even comprehend how difficult the task is to make all statistics equal to the other.

my comment was against sawce acting surprised that it is mostly men that fight for the men's rights/it is wrong for that to happen
