| Jaicee said: Anyway, the basic ideology of this particular section of men's rights activists is that sex is a right owed to men by women, and therefore rejection is unacceptable; that we have no right to refuse. No right to an autonomous will of our own. |
They need to grow up. They are owed absolutely nothing.
| Jaicee said: If I can divulge something more about myself, I've not been any too successful either romantically or sexually myself all in all. I understand loneliness. But I also recognize that my loneliness, at the end of the day, is mostly my own fault. I'm not a financially successful person, I don't look great, I'm not very outgoing, I don't communicate well, I have lots of unusual opinions and beliefs, interests that not too many other women share to a similar degree (like video games, for instance), and I'm sure that people could find many other faults too. |
You are correct. It is mostly your own fault. (And I say that with a ton of respect.)
If you don't look great.. Then improve, get healthy, get fit, get some new clothes...
Confidence and Communication can improve thanks to the above as well.
Financially not successful? Doesn't matter.
Being financially responsible is probably a little more important... I have seen low income earners live a better lifestyle than a middle income earners... And that is thanks to not being burdened with debt and buying a ton of rubbish they didn't need.
With that in mind, you can change this position in due time anyway if you work hard.
| Jaicee said: And yeah, I can also see that there are some external factors I can't control too, like the fact that I'm only interested in other women and find myself financially trapped in a community that's sufficiently repressive that almost no one is out (including me) and that really limits my options at the outset compared to your average straight guy. |
Nope. This is also (respectfully) your own fault as well.
I am also part of the LGBTQI community... And I came out of the closet not knowing anyone else... During a time when society was significantly more homophobic to the point where our conservative Government was rewriting laws to exclude the LGBTQI community and where being Homophobic/Gay Bashing was seen as okay.
You will find once you come out, people really will not give a shit... And those that do give a shit are not worth your time, stand your ground.
You will also find that other people who are in the closet will also seek you out and confide in you, support them.
Obviously I don't recommend anyone coming out of the closet if you live in a state that incarcerates people for Homosexuality.
| o_O.Q said: wow so everyone here thinks this is all social and has nothing to do with testosterone for example causing higher aggression and sexual drive in men? i mean obviously there's a social component that includes the idea that you're a loser if you aren't sexually successful as a man, but i think its a mistake to simply reduce it down to that entirely |
Obviously each individual circumstance will be different.
