I don't really understand why the double standard is considered okay, to be honest. Male only clubs have been under attack for awhile but female only venues have been springing up without complaint. They're either both okay or neither is okay.

I'm also getting sick of those who think no one should ever complain about an issue faced by men or boys. They have zero idea of what equality actually means and are, ironically, the mirror reflection of those they complain about.

Female only venues?  Can you provide a link to one?  Never heard of that in US.

" Probably wants it to go back to what it once was"

when we sent women off to die in wars and made them do the hardest dirtiest jobs that build and maintain infrastructure?

You mean the wars started by men? 

i'm not understanding this comment... are you somehow implying that women do not engage in conflict? because if that's your argument here then i can't take you seriously

if you are reasonable and acknowledge that women do engage in conflict... then you really don't have an argument do you?

anybody who can think logically understands that stuff like this is a logical conclusion of the current "women are victims and we need to bring about equal rights for them" narrative... and its only going to get worse

but yeah equating him with rosa parks is a bit dramatic

whenever you build hysteria in a group on the grounds of them being oppressed it always results in attacks on the supposed perpetrator group

extreme examples of that occurred in the soviet union and hitler's germany, for example, where hitler told the german people they were being victimised by the jews and in the soviet union the poor were told that they were oppressed by capitalists

Did you seriously just compare me to Hitler for being a feminist? :P

 

yes, the motivations hitler had "i'm a victim!" are the same that drive feminists... but i did also note that he is an extreme example... you understand the concept of "extreme" and "levels"?

edit: and i at no point before this post addressed you directly... i was speaking generally so take it easy with the victim narrative

Alright, I have reached my official threshold of tolerance for the rampant conservative snowflakery on display here and leave you to it. :P

Well...you THINK you're not one anyway.



I thought Colin Kaperneck was the next Rosa Parks.

The guy is clearly a person that goes around making money by suing. I hate people like that. I hate lawyers that follow them around. Just as you disclose your medical or dental records and such forth when going to a new place a judge should look at your history and be like "hmm, you have sued in every town you have moved to about the same thing" and realize you are most likely faking it, making it up, ect.

From a small town and a couple of black kids moved to town. Within that year they sued our school for some teachers being racists. They had done this at their previous school and maybe even others. Same lawyer. The cheapest and quickest way to resolve this issue is for the school to do a settlement. Thus that happened. Everyone knows the teachers were not racists.

Now as for Ladies night. Again mixed. I have nothing against a business doing what they think will make them money. Ladies night works wonders. Girls go in for cheap or free drinks. Girls at bar brings guys there and they spend money and bar makes money. Guys night would not work. Only guys would come and bar would lose money. But I hate the double standard that if a bar did do a guys night that social media would threatened the establishment to death until they were forced to close.

Sounds pretty similar to this guy claiming he's the victim

Of course they engage in conflict and many women leaders have waged war campaigns throughout history. You proclaimed that only men were forced into war which is itself not entirely true.  My point is that war is largely waged at the behest of men.   To claim men were disadvantaged because they were forced into war should not ignore the fact it was man that sent them there in the first place.

This debate is centering on women forcing men from access to something (a music venue or something).  In war, women were not generally the ones forcing men into war.  It was other men.  The equivalent here would be men banning themselves from a venue.

 

" You proclaimed that only men were forced into war which is itself not entirely true. "

that's like saying that men didn't hold the positions of power throughout history because of cleopatra or queen victoria and i'd say that this is closer to the truth compared with what you're doing here

 

"My point is that war is largely waged at the behest of men."

for the benefit of men, women and children mostly at the expense of men and yet there's this silly narrative that only women endured hardship in society

 

" In war, women were not generally the ones forcing men into war.  It was other men."

and what was the reason? simply because men are violent and need to engage in war? or was it to benefit society when times were harder and resources were harder come by?

when we hunted mammoth and killed them, did we do so for fun or was their primarily another more important reason for doing so?

 

"This debate is centering on women forcing men from access to something (a music venue or something)."

true, i only made the point i made in response to what you posted originally
