Sexism against guys... (1 Viewer)

[HumanDichotomy]

I was watching Q&A the other day, and Germaine Greer was going on about the oppressive nature of marriage etc. And it got me thinking...everyone mostly talks about sexism in relation to women...but what about guys? What do people think about society's perception of males etc? Has feminism been interpreted in such extreme ways that it is now detrimental to guys? Also, does anyone know anything about laws etc that could be considered sexist against males?

feminism means equality, people have hijacked the word and now everyone is terrified of admitting they're a feminist...

Exactly. That's why my question was 'Has it been taken to an extreme?'

Womans shoold be treeted equal to mans. Bible say "Be careful if you make a woman cry, because god counts her tears. the woman came out of man's rib. Not from his feet to be walked on. Not from his head to be superior, but from his side to be his equal. Under his arm to be protected and next to his heart to be loved." So equal fair. But i not like ugly one like some.

This is almost completely fair now - the system has been fixed up a great deal... Well in the case of my parents it was. The deal was up to how much Dad wanted me and my sister and he didn't care so we chose it'd be when we wanted...

Now, I barely ever see or visit him (but he was a violent man so he kinda deserves loneliness in some ways - but I do feel bad some times for not visiting).

Totally agreed.

True...in principle...but if you think about it, there are still so many kids who spend the majority of time with their mum.

 

[Jeee]

No mang.
One of my life's goals is to slap a guy (like they do in films) and walk away, leaving him stunned/scarred. If he was going to hit me back that'd just destroy everything I've lived for.

I had a laugh at the suggestion that women be allowed to play in the main AFL league. Not because i'm sexist(make me a sandwich), but because the amount of contact in the game would bring even further cries of sexism and most of all violence against women. Then the games rules itself would have to be changed to tone down any contact so the womans groups don't complain of violence to women(when in fact it would be to everyone). Which would of course just ruin the game. Theres a female league for a reason!

So yes feminism now is getting way too extreme, as well as political correctness. Holy shit baa baa rainbow sheep?!?!

Stop attempting to discuss political matters at all ever, you're embarrassing yourself.

In answer to the question, I don't accept that there is a widespread movement of "feminists" that actively promote hatred of men. This idea is primarily the paranoid, entirely inaccurate interpretation of feminism expressed by idiots that don't understand it.

Feminism is not about men. It IS about working to end the marginalisation of women within society.
