#YesAllWomen because years of experience means I don't know what I'm talking about compared to a man that wasn't even there for the conversation.

#YesAllWomen because I'm still getting paid less money to do more work than a guy with fewer qualifications and no work ethic.

#YesAllWomen because the only reason I could possibly want to date other women is that I haven't experienced the magic peen yet.

#YesAllWomen because being compared to female genitalia is considered an insult.

*sigh*

I shouldn't even get started.

That's a good point. I'm mostly surprised when women do this

It's a perfect example of indoctrination. Something offensive gets repeated so many times that it loses its meaning, but not before assisting an entire generation of women in putting themselves down in favor of masculinity.

This is supposed to be an age of female empowerment, and yet, how often are we told and do we tell one another that we should think and act like men? Women are probably even more guilty than males at this point of perpetuating the association between femininity and weakness. Anything female is the lesser.

Honestly, I don't even think these issues would exist to such an extent if women would start respecting other women and standing together, even if they're not in the same social circle.

One advantage that men have, is a sort of unspoken unity as men. Even if they're not actually friends, and even if they're rivals, they stull somehow have a solidarity among each other as men.

The bro culture, for instance. Among women, there's no real "sis culture", unless they're super close friends. Otherwise, it's basically every woman competing with other women just to be able to fend for herself.

Which means not only missing out on having the advantage of others aligned to the cause, it also wastes energy fighting other women that could be dedicated towards taking strides towards securing freedom, dignity and human respect for the half of the population who landed "female" in the coin toss of conception. 🙂

Somewhat related to conditioning

Valid points. Women also have to be taught about civilized conduct instead of acting out like filthy heathens.

It was really sad that I was impressed by how many people spoke up in the first half. I don't think you would get that kind of reaction in most of America. :/

Thanks for posting that video.

I wish I had this material for that "Double Standards" man bashing thread about a week ago.

Pretty much backs up 100% .

Everyone was laughing and giggling at the man being mistreated. If he would have made even the slightest offensive move to defend himself, the cops would be called, he'd be in cuffs, and wearing the scarlet DV forever.

Sick.
