I can't wait for them to make a vagina next.

SeattleRain ,

The fact that there's so many different versions of the Bible is one.

SeattleRain ,

Except they don't say different things happened.

SeattleRain ,

Women inflict violence by proxy. So she just threatens to get one of her male acquaintances to harm you. This is also why women on male violence appears so much lower then male on woman violence. That and the fact that society is very incredulous and dismissive of male victims of female violence.

SeattleRain ,

Uh oh, better start buttering up all the nurses and grocery store employees as "hero's" again since this country has done everything possible to screw them in them last 4 years since COVID ended.

SeattleRain ,

This is Graphene OS had a distress code you can enter that will wipe the phone.

SeattleRain ,

How would they know

SeattleRain ,

They wouldn't know it was you.

SeattleRain ,

You can also set it to wipe if you don't enter a PIN after a set amount of time.

SeattleRain ,

I think a big stumbling block is authentication. I think Web 3 could really revive indie forums if the was integrated properly.

It was give people a single sign on for thousands of forums.

SeattleRain ,

Christianity and Feminism.

SeattleRain ,

The current 3rd/4th wave feminism finds male sexual pleasure very abhorrent. If you can find anything in the mainstream discourse coming from a feminist that says otherwise please share.

Feminists can't even agree to be against circumcision which is clearly genital mutilation.

Feminism demonizes male sexuality.

SeattleRain , (edited )

Okay, post some mainstream feminist discourse that says otherwise. Highly influential feminists like Dworkin go as far as saying that any sexual intercourse with men is sexual assault.

SeattleRain ,

But I'm talking about mainstream feminism in the public discourse right now. Think the "Barbie" movie. Male sexuality is very clearly depicted a inherently dangerous which is core mainstream feminist belief.

SeattleRain ,

Sex positive for women collectively, not for men as a whole.

SeattleRain , (edited )

Feminists infamously had a moral panic about pornography in the 1970's as adult theaters and the nascent home video porno market started to take off.

They predicted porn would condition men to expect sex on demand and sexual assault rates would skyrocket when in fact the opposite happened.

You see this same moral panic from feminists regarding AI girlfriends and you there's a rising fundamentalist strain of feminism that still says porn is dangerous.

SeattleRain ,

Yes it is, masturbation is a part of male sexuality. If you demonize male sexuality any endorsement of male sexual expression is an explicit endorsement of the harmful male sexuality.

SeattleRain ,

Feminists posit that men are inherently predatory. See "toxic masculinity" debates. Influential feminists like Dworkin have even stated that any sexual intercourse with men is sexual assault.

Mainstream media, which is deeply influenced by feminism, depicts male sexuality as dangerous "any man can be a rapist" while lying by omission about female predators.

Being male is an inalienable trait and "toxic masculinity" inherently is borne from males. Things like sexual assault are "women's issues" even though studies show men are assault at near parity to women.

The list goes on, really shouldn't have spent so much time answering because it's so glaringly obvious so you're arguing in bad faith.

SeattleRain ,

Barbie is immediately sexually harassed several times upon first interacting with human men.

Also see "Wonder Woman '84" for more examples which was directed by a feminists with explicitly feminists ideology.

SeattleRain ,

Read the rest of this thread.

SeattleRain ,

Not to mention Ken's attraction to Barbie nearly destroys Barbie land and is revealed to based on selfish social climbing and his broken psychology.

SeattleRain ,

Okay provide some links to these mainstream feminist circles that celebrate male sexuality and or are sex positive about men having sex. I'm genuinely interested.

SeattleRain ,

She did in fact say that and your link doesn't refute that. And sex positive feminism is not sex positive for men. As I've said many times before I'm talking about mainstream feminist discourse. Feminist always use this tactic of digging up some progressive strain of feminism knowing full well it's not influential.

Dworkin may have died awhile ago but her work is still regularly cites and studies by mainstream feminism and her influence can be seen in movies like the Barbie movie.

SeattleRain ,

I do understand "Toxic Masculinity". It's right in the word and is much like how conservatives would blame " black culture" for the societal ills of African Americans.

You simply denying that that's not what it is doesn't debunk anything.

And we have a term for societal expectations already and it's called gender roles. Which isn't a loaded admonishment like toxic masculinity.

All of feminism revolves around the critique of men which is an inalienable trait.

SeattleRain ,

I already cited several scenes from the Barbie movie in this thread which was celebrated as a feminist watershed.

The Duluth Model of determining domestic violence another example. Child support is another. The banning of paternity testing is yet another. You're just being obtuse. I won't engage with you anymore.

SeattleRain ,

But she posits that patriarchy is all encompassing and subordinates all women. Even the feminist that wrote the forward said that's what she meant.

Numerous feminists have said they interpreted that way. It's hard to take her denial seriously given the context of her book and the rest of her writings.

SeattleRain ,

Nice strawman, I didn't say it turns you into a feminist. I said Christianity and feminism demonize male sexuality and that ideology is deeply influential.

SeattleRain ,

Lol, they do not celebrate or encourage expressions of make sexuality instead they cite is all as objectifying just like garden variety feminists.

SeattleRain ,

Okay whatever, I already explained my position. I'm not going to repeat myself to every bad faith actor that wants to their own personalized explanation.

SeattleRain ,

I don't find downplaying the gentital mutation of innocent babies funny. I'm not sure why feminists do.

SeattleRain , (edited )

She did say it's degrading and a form of contempt inflicted by men on women. In the context of the books it's not at all unreasonable to interpret it as rape.

Regardless it DOES posit male sexuality and violence and degragation of women when it is expressesed.

Regardless that's her influence even if unintentional and it's all over media and culture.

SeattleRain ,

All she's saying is that she meant maritial sex is a form of violence because maritial rape was legal, which wasn't even true.

It's a distinction without a difference.

SeattleRain ,

Here's an example of a prominant influential feminist calling all men rapists.

"Under patriarchy, every woman's son is her potential betrayer and also the inevitable rapist or exploiter of another woman."

  • Andrea Dworkin
SeattleRain ,

One major reason is that feminism, which deeply influences culture, posits that all men are rapists in the waiting. For an example here a quote from a prominent and influential feminist.

"Under patriarchy, every woman's son is her potential betrayer and also the inevitable rapist or exploiter of another woman."

  • Andrea Dworkin

This chills any frank discussion of male sexuality because that would be implicit endorsement of sexual assault.

SeattleRain ,

She was and she says it in both that and other wrirings and publically.

"Male sexuality, drunk on its intrinsic contempt for all life, but especially for women's lives, can run wild."

"Hatred of women is a source of sexual pleasure for men in its own right."

She argued that penetration was a form of "occupation".

"intercourse remains a means or the means of physiologically making a woman inferior"

She labeled women that had sexual with men "collaborators".

But defenders like you will split hairs to make it seem like her demonization of male sexuality is just made up by her critics.

SeattleRain ,

Her and Solanas both argued men have to be castrated before a feminsit transformation of sexuality can begin.

SeattleRain ,

Direct quotes are "insane incel bull****"? She really said that and the theme appears in all her writings.

SeattleRain ,

It doesn't consist of all extreme views but many mainstream feminist ideology had extremists views.

SeattleRain ,

If only he were in some kind of position of power to do something about it.

SeattleRain ,

Nah, they're right. It will give American Biotech corps a strangle hold over seeds. The world grows more than enough food for everyone. Scarcity is not why people go hungry.

SeattleRain ,

NGOs have looooong history of working for western capital interests to the detriment of the global south. See how they fooled low income women into using baby formula and getting thousands of babies killed first through contaminated water used to mix the formula then through starvation after they cut off the supply after women's breasts had gone dry.

SeattleRain ,

Does anyone have a realistic idea of how this happened? I get Google has been fallen off for awhile but they're still a multi billion dollar company.

SeattleRain ,

They're not two different things. They're both supposedly acts of pedophilia except one would take actual courage to prosecute (churches) and the other which doesn't have any actual victims is easy and is a PR get because certain people find it really icky.

[META] Creating a new community is easy, but to get people on board, you need to create some content.

If you create a community, please try and populate it with content. I see a lot of new communities with 0-1 posts from the mod. That's not nearly enough to get people engaged - users are going to see that it's a ghost town and leave....

SeattleRain ,

I've created a new community /c/housing_bubble_2. How do I get it featured on newcommunities?
