Is male achievement due simply to social conditioning? Are men and women identical? University lecturer Malcolm James weighs in on the discussion and provides a bit of nuance. by [deleted] in MensRights

[–]giegerwasright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Men achieve because they have no choice. Achieve or die is the name of the game. There is NOBODY waiting in the wings to save us or put a free meal on our table. For women, being saved and provided for is still the norm.

I don't know why you got downvoted. Were you being sarcastic? I agree with your statement.

Who told you?

people actually enjoy the ending more when they know what happens

What percentage? That entirely defeats the purpose of the narrative experience. It's like putting the punchline before the pitch.

Crowdfunding campaign to "Pay back the money women lose from the 'wage gap'." How many times does this idea need to be proven wrong to stop the idiocy? by [deleted] in MensRights

[–]giegerwasright 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So... is there going to be a campaign to cover the hours unworked, skillsets unlearned, and bodies uninjured too?

Oh. Wait. No. This is about more free shit.

Reddit community amasses 50+ people on Teamspeak and talk a teen out of suicide, saving his life. by Belrus in bestof

because attention seeking manipulative narcissists don't spread their shit everywhere and never use threats of suicide to further their goals. Never.

Why so many girls have trouble with gaming culture by blueoak9 in MensRights

[–]giegerwasright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem that most women who have problems in gaming and other geek cultures is that so many of them are casuals. They want the prize, but they don't want to run the race and they are enabled to constantly blame others for their own shortcomings rather than work to improve themselves.

If your subordinate has to teach you how to do your job, then you are not qualified for that job.

Guardian attacks comics for being sexist. What's next? Is anything off-limits for them? [donotlink] by englishradio in MensRights

Overly guilty, yet ironically overly entitled, middle class and upper class white women don't have the balls to criticize black people.

I didn't say only. I do assert, though, that income is a dealbreaker and women more often expect men to make enough to support them both than not.

If you're a heterosexual male, that becomes a bit of a problem if you want someone to have a loving relationship with, though. Doesn't it?

[–]giegerwasright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure. Except, there are those of us who pursue those successful demanding careers because we have to pay our fucking rent.

And there are people (mostly women) who will not deign to get involved with people (mostly men) who do not have the ability to provide them with the things that those successful demanding careers pay for.

So. There's another side to this story. That constantly gets left out.

See the statistics feminists don't want you to see proving "patriarchy" doesn't privilege working men by ballenmra in MensRights

[–]giegerwasright 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The problem isn't patriarchy. It is oligarchy. There are plenty of women in the oligarchy, they would rather not work though, and prefer their husbands to do that. That does not mean that they don't control the finances to a very large degree. Behind every great man is an even greater woman, right? That's a description of the power relationship in fucking oligarchy.

To Whom it May Concern: Video Games & Solidarity by sonicbanana in pcgaming

To some degree, maybe. She's already off the Pax panel. People will still gingerly try to work with her. People will still try to work with her to show the world just what wonderful social justice warriors they are. But all of their product will be tainted. Add to that allegations of financial fuckery and people with big money are getting less and less interested.

So, she might have her bills paid for this fiscal year, but in the next, she will experience a significant dropoff. That will cause her to either find a new career or behave more erratically and desperately in an attempt to make up that lost ground. She isn't going to be another Anita Sarkeesian. The evidence of her pandering, colluding, and manipulating is too big and too easily accessible and it will follow her everywhere.

So. In the short term... she has some money and some fanboys. In the long term, that will all peter out.

This female is a /nobody/ to the world.

She was a nobody. She socially engineered her way into quite a bit more than that, and a bunch of cash to boot. Rather than do the work like her Rosie the Riveter Idol, she used people and pretended to have done the work. And profited handsomely for it. Now, it is exposed.
