I don’t care if every pro lifer on earth was also anti death penalty pro social safety net and has personally adopted 12 disabled foster children I still don’t think they should have the right to force women to give birth

Maybe the real crisis of masculinity is that none of you people have FRIENDS.

[quasi-normalcy]

The thing that I find most embarrassing about "Crisis in masculinity" narratives is that they've been talking about it my entire life and the "solution" has always been to consume: "BUY my book! LISTEN TO my podcast! TAKE these boner pills! JOIN this gym! BUY a big fucking truck! EAT steak! DRINK whisky! COLLECT guns! GET cosmetic surgery to MAKE YOUR HEAD LOOK LIKE A BOX so bitches will want to FUCK you!"

And yet it never seems to be enough, and the reason it never seems to be enough is because there *is* no crisis of masculinity, there's a crisis of corporate media making men feel insecure so that they can sell them shit. It's absolutely no different from the cosmetics industry or the diet industry or the fashion industry doing the same to women.

I’m sure this has been said but it truly is insane how lefties say being too mean to actual violent racists and sexists is bad because it will further radicalize them and drive them to do violence but when it comes to “terfs” they have zero issue with threatening rape and murder non-stop to the point where the average woman is genuinely scared of non-anonymously acknowledging that sex-based discrimination exists

Genuinely... @ all the radfem/gender critical people who are concerned about protecting female single-sex sports competition.

You want to help women's sports, right? And there's a few hundred thousand of you across all social media platforms. That's a pretty big number.

Guess what? I have great news. There's actually an extremely effective way for you to protect women's sports competition. And it's extremely easy.

Choose a favorite pro women's sports team.

That's it! That's all it takes. Pick a favorite team. Any sport. Any pro league. Take an extra step beyond supporting your national team and pick a favorite professional team. There are hundreds of women's pro sport teams. So it shouldn't be hard to find one you like. You don't even have to be interested in sports to do this. Maybe you like the star player because she's fun to follow outside of her athletic career. That's fine. Just pick her team then.

So once you pick your team, find out how many games they play in a season. If they play 40 games, you need to at least watch 20. Since this is your favorite team, it's reasonable that you would watch at least half the games, right? And feel free to post about the team, too. Enjoy all the trials and tribulations and fan content that they produce for you throughout the season.

Men's sports is based on the whims of billionaire investors. So men's sport leagues are whatever billionaire investors want them to be.

Women's sports is based on fans. So women's sports leagues are whatever fans want them to be.

Right now, the women's sports fanbase wants trans-inclusive leagues. So, female athletes, who are 100% financially reliant on fans, have no choice but to go along with it. The trans-inclusive queer+++ community makes up most of the women's sports fan market.

That's right. The kids with 8 different neo pronouns are doing a better job than you are. They're doing a way better job showing up for professional female athletes. Ultimately, their ideas are backwards and terrible for women's sports. But that doesn't really matter. Fans come first.

If you actually cared about fair female sports competition, you would join the fanbase. You would show female athletes that they have gender critical fans who will support them. If you don't even attempt to balance out the fanbase, nothing else that you do or say even matters. Your input on women's sports has zero impact if you're not a fan with a favorite team.

being murdered by a man you loved would be some of the most horrifying last moments on earth as a woman and then people will resent her for getting too much attention

And if the case gets high profile enough, people will joke about her death (Nicole Brown, Gabby Petito)

No literally this. The “your husband beats you up on your own kitchen so how dare you want a safe public toilet or rape shelter” take they think so smooth and smart.

I fucking hate all these people.

​Not to mention the complete ignorance of cause and effect. Women are most likely to be abused in the home precisely because the man in your home is the one with most easy access to you when you’re vulnerable. Giving more men easy access to you, outside of the home, when you’re vulnerable… will have the obvious consequence.

“Some call women’s segregation into low-paid work a choice. But it's a funny kind of choice when there is no realistic option other than the children not being cared for and the housework not getting done. In any case, 50 year's worth of US census data has proven that when women join an industry in high numbers, that industry attracts lower pay and loses ‘prestige’, suggesting that low-paid work chooses women rather than the other way around.

This choice-that-isn't-a-choice is making women poor. A recent Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) study found that the gender pay gap in hourly wages is substantially higher in countries where women spend a large amount of time on unpaid care compared to men. In the UK, women make up 61% of those earning below the living wage, and the Insititute for Fiscal Studies has found that the gender pay gap widens over the twelve years after a child is born to 33%, as women's careers- and wages- stagnate. The US pay gap between mothers and married fathers is three times higher than the pay gap between men and women without children.

Over time, these pay gaps add up. In Germany a woman who has given birth to one child can expect to earn up to 285k less by the time she's 45 than a woman who has worked full time without interruption. Data from France, Germany, Sweden and Turkey shows that even after accounting for social transfers hat some countries employ to recognize the contribution women make through their unpaid care work, women earn between 31% and 75% less than men over their lifetimes." -Invisible Women, Caroline Criado Perez

I love religious people who argue that men and women are equal, they just have different roles. It’s funny because those roles are always “rational intelligent fully capable human being” and “submissive domestic sex slave” but it’s all alright because those roles have the same value and you’re the prejudiced one for thinking one is worse :3
