nilvoid: bronyparctears: franslair: revolution-valonia-mk-3: bronyparctears: franslair: here i made a helpful chart oh pls. Some of there are a result of queerphobia and ableism to which the person’s gender isn’t the main factor (though women tend to get it worse), stuff like “women should rule the world” are fringe beliefs with no real impact compared to “women belong in the kitchen”, the belief that women don’t belong in the army is a result of misogyny, and claiming either circumcision is solely a men’s issue is cissexist as fuck, same with periods for women. Men do not suffer sexism, At All. Please refer to the helpful chart above. What they face is what bronyparctears have mentioned: queerphobia & ableism. Bronyparctears is two things: Vile enough for me to ignore her, and I almost never ignore people. Note the hypocrisy and mental gymnastics. Wrong. In this case especially. You’re the one who repeatedly called a 15 year old trans girl a bitch for asking people to stop calling her a bitch, and I’m the vile one for taking issue with dudes using the plight of homeless men to somehow justify their MRA bullshit, COOOOOOOOL BEANS. Ahahahaha holy shit that chart What bullet point balances out the fact that men make more money than women

It is apparently “sexism against men” that “women must be the gatekeepers of sex”. That’s ambiguously enough worded that it could mean that women’s bodily autonomy is taking more seriously than men’s (which is wrong, but if the world worked that way would be a valid point), or that it actually means that women having control over whether a man has sex with her is “sexism against men”. That latter bit is common for “egalitarian” men to claim: that women’s control over their own bodies is sexism against men, who have a right to them. Literally, rape culture deserving a seat at the table in the name of “equality”.

Likewise, is no one going to call out the cissexism in “PMS and having a penis”? Even in limiting the discussion to cis women and cis men with that though, women’s “irrationality” surrounding PMS is treated as something they need to address. Men’s “irrationality” surrounding us being wildebeests or wild creatures or whatever is something that other people need to address (mostly women through getting us to marry them and shower us with power and benefits and validation because that will soothe us supposedly). That’s the power discrepancy this whole fucking chart is missing.

And fuck it, let’s just run down the whole “sexism that only men experience” side of the chart:

“men are inferior to women as human beings” - is way more common with men and women reversed, especially if you switch out “human beings” with almost any job, position of power, or esteemed status.

“we should just let women run everything [etc etc]” - who even fucking says that? Feminists are constantly stressing how they don’t think that in order to be “palatable” or whatever, what universe do you live in that asking for closer to equal representation in government is the same as “women run[ning] everything”???

“circumcision [etc]” this issue is fucking complicated but are we seriously going to pretend that non-consentual / coerced genital modification is solely something that happens to men? AND AGAIN WITH THE CISSEXISM?

“ill [sic] cure this gay guy [etc etc etc]” - this is not even remotely a thing on the scale of “lesbians just need a good dicking” and besides, has everything to do with heterosexism not sexism

“bisexual men? [etc]” - again heterosexism, bi erasure, etc

“he’s male so that’s the only feasible reason he got that promotion” - uh, literally everyone who works with one of my moms has gotten promoted to leadership except her and they keep failing and having to let her pick up the pieces but she can’t get promoted, and yeah they’re all guys in the deeply sexist field of computer science, and yes that is an anecdote but are you seriously going to deny that sexism isn’t a thing in promotions/hiring/firing/leadership in work spaces because god literally most of the world is going to laugh at your detachment from reality.

[men don’t get raped arguments] - yeah, let’s ignore how this is built on the erasure of men getting raped by men which is far more common than cis women raping cis men (again! with! the! cissexism! in! this! analysis!), and for the moment let’s ask where the idea of men as (to quite from the argument made above) always needing to be “strong” comes from and how that’s pretty much entirely derived from men’s own ideas about us being the strong protectors of “the fairer/weaker/etc sex” and reclassifying controlling and invasive behavior as “protection”/“assistance”/“chivalry” so really this is just sexism versus women backfiring on men when we get stuck in a position that usually women are put into, rather than us.

TL;DR this is literally the worst analysis ever that’s built on a lot of cissexism, piggybacks on all this shitty anti-heterosexism to find examples of “sexism” against men, and is really fucking skeevy in how it seems very comfortable with rape culture in certain contexts (by either intentional or unintentionally propping up the idea that men have a “right” to women’s bodies at all, and even on that’s comparable to women’s right to their own bodies and bodily autonomy).

Basically fuck this.
