xfreedTurning Men Down In Public
Maybe don’t constantly listen what media says? Otherwise u will end up paranoid.
richieadlerYeah, disregard advice destined to protect an endangered group when you belong to that group. That’s going to go reallllllly well.
OgmiosIs it actually intended to protect you, or is it intended to constantly neg you to the point you become a hollow shell of a woman, overly eager to please others out of fear for what might happen if you don’t, no longer capable of recognizing good in others so you’ll settle for the abusive relationships you’ve been conditioned to expect?
Translation:
I don’t consider women human beings capable of discerning a good situation from a bad one.
I believe that women are so simple minded that warning them of the worst case scenario irrevocably ruins them socially.
I think that if we keep showing women the consequences of not being wary of men who may be violent, they will inexplicably choose abusive relationships where that violence is ever present.
Man, you sound like you have zero respect for women whatsoever. You really think that women are so weak minded as a whole that just being exposed to the violence primarily levied against women is just going to break all women mentally?
It’s not something specific about women, but people in general respond poorly to being constantly bombarded with fear porn. the only thing specific to women in this scenario is the flavour of fear porn being peddled.
It’s not fear porn. It’s reality.
If what you’re saying is that people respond poorly in general to the news, then fine. But that’s hardly the same thing as being negged into abusive relationships.
You can use real scenarios as fear porn by hyper focusing on them, far beyond what’s reasonable, and to the exclusion of everything else.
You’re treading a fine line with that logic claiming that news like this is designed to neg women into being constantly afraid.
If making people aware of dangerous situations is a good thing, then being aware of how media can be used maliciously is also a good lesson.
Sure. But painting women as completely beholden to the news to the point that they’re negged into paranoia and abusive relationships is blatantly over representing the problem.
Well you’re just completely misrepresenting what I’ve said there.
or is it intended to constantly neg you to the point you become a hollow shell of a woman, overly eager to please others out of fear for hypotheticals, no longer capable of recognizing good in others so you’ll settle for the abusive relationships you’ve been conditioned to expect?
I’m using your words, in your phrasing. If I’m misrepresenting what you said, then you might want to reexamine what you said.
You should read it more carefully. I’m speaking about the motives of those who spread fear porn, not the aptitude of women as a whole.
Ok, and claiming that news pertaining to the rape and murder of women by men who were spurned is manipulative is better in what way?
Painting news organizations as having the overall goal of egging women into paranoia and abusive relationships doesn’t even make sense. If anything, their goal would be clicks, not sewing chaos in that way.
And anyway, insinuating that the problem in the original post is the news fear mongering to condition women, and not the pervasive problem of violent men assaulting women, is itself insulting to women. Which is the point I was originally making.
But painting women as completely beholden to the news to the point that they’re negged into paranoia and abusive relationships
I would say it’s people in general. Women just happen to be the targets of this particular manipulation. But all people are extremely susceptible to manipulation.
Men are just as likely to get murdered by men as women are likely to get murdered by men.
And yet men are not afraid of talking to other men.
It ain’t the stats, it’s the perception.
Women are physically inferior to men, and most men don’t have a sense of romantic entitlement towards other men. I really can’t believe I have to explain why the dynamic of men telling another man no is different from a woman doing the same.
Fear, of course. It’s a very simple dynamic.
Fear of demonstrably real repercussion. Not unwarranted fear.
You’re trying to state that the fear should be just the same, but the dynamic is not. Men don’t tend to kill other men out of unrequited love. Trying to say that the difference lies purely in how the media portrays the problem is completely ignoring the context.
It doesn’t matter if the murder rate of men to women vs me is roughly the same if the causes are fundamentally different.
Thank you for being the voice of reason, and backing it up with data, Any chance you can share the source?
FBI Crime Stats (from 2022, latest yearfor which data is available)
Thank you!
Me have been screaming at me in public about their penis feelings since i was in primary school and that’s the very least of it. Women don’t need the media to know we’re in danger. Men will bombard us with enough sexual harrassment to do that themselves.
