For the life of me... I can't see what the relevence of this post

It's kind of sad that you can't when your talking about sexism. I like to do a stress test on that inability to grasp at the obvious with some of my female friends and I'm sure it would hold true for some males as well.

The test usually involves having a kid swing the bat and some how the dad get's hit in the groin, rarely do I get signs of disapproval, while when I show the clip of the woman being hit in the crotch by a rope when the boat behind her starts off and the rope between her legs tightens.

In both cases the unexpected happens and in both cases the fetal position was executed but only for the male have I ever had folks giggle. Of course 100% of the time that I explain this to someone they say that they would find nothing funny with the males anguish but that neither here nor there.

My point is with all your worry about the woman’s right's it may be fair to worry about Asange's also especially when rape cases are notoriously (at least in the US) in favor of the female within the courts. If the Swiss incorporate closed door rulings to protect the women (if that is the language) then Asange may actually not get a fair trial even if he wasn't Asange the notorious wiki leaks guy.


Yes, that's the thing I wonder. And really my statement questioning the charges isn't even sexism. The name calling was more harsh, that's about it.  Here in the US as you stated women are basically winners off the bat, but if a male "cries" rape they are questioned completely on if they are even telling the truth and if it really happened because (use godlike tone here) *he is male and men can't be raped.*

If the same applies worldwide, like it probably does, and the Swedes protect women as strongly as the US then any women can call rape and the book will be thrown at someone without question or a truly fair trial. Which is why I am calling this entire thing into question. Did he rape her or is she crying foul? Did they have unprotected or protected sex? Who actually initiated the act? These are all questions that need to be answered before anything major judgment is passed. If the answer is True, either, Assange, he is guilty. False, either, her or him; throw this out. False, unprotected, him; could probably hit him with it since its illegal everywhere to lie if your using protection or not.

Hm? I see, Kasz - I have been and only very lightly researching misandry the concept is being fortunately tracked by scientists around the world. I consider this a wise step as a globalize egalitarian society must see the ramifications of upsetting what may have been very natural.

I'm saying that equal rights for the genders is a fine line unlike equal rights for the so called races of men. The distinction being that their is no physiological difference between men and men or women and women of any man made race but their is an undeniable set of differences between men and women and because of them our fates are very different.

This brings a major challenge for most western societies as how do you take two things that are by default a circle and then square it? This doesn't mean that women should not be treated as human beings but it does mean women should and men as well should be weary of treating each gender equally. This sound's a bit political and I apologize for that. I'll cite some research.

For example in Thailand as well as China over the last 15 years their has been a wider share of feminism put into the mainstream, the male Chinese idols also don't act generally masculine at all, the study if I remember clearly enough showed that the kids that had followed those forms of media or it's inertial influence wore female type clothing and that their average height was lower than the previous generations. (The study is or was still in the works) The result has been a slight increase in the way of Thailand about the transsexual population as well.

The report targets mostly emasculation and lack of sensitivity about the caricatures of men. Mostly that men go out and work while women generally and television generally raise the kids.

My point is without getting too into VAWA act and other laws for womens rights pushed by the femanist lobby which give women rights at the cost of rights to males in the US (Thankfully curbed by many state legislatures) is a balancing act.

Er... no it isn'?.

13% of rape cases have convictions.  That's... just about the lowest conviction rate there is for a crime in the US.   Rape cases are actually notoriously biased towards the accused rapists. 

A woman, who is raped and beaten in an ally by a stranger is less likely to get a conviction then a woman who is just beaten in an ally. 

Also, the rulings aren't closed door.  The evidence is shown behind closed doors, but the arguments and verdicts are public. 

So they don't show naked pictures of women with their bruises... etc out of respect for the victims.  The only part that's "behind closed doors" is the recording of evidence.

If you believed it was anything else, again you bought into the outright lies of Assange.

I mean hell, have you ever paid attention to a high profile rape case let alone.. any rape case.  I'd suggest actually learning about rape victims that go to court go through before you make up proclimations that are just.. stupid.

I actually know people who have been DA's for rape cases.  In general their general thoughts are "In most cases, it'd of been better off for them not to report it, because even with the most stonecold proof, getting a conviction is 50-50 due to peoples attidues and biases."

Hell, there is this one DA who's NEVER seen a rape case end in a convcition that didn't involve statutory rape.

I see, I've read differently; that the conviction rate was 58% for rape related cases, 14% were from cases of rape that were reported.

Now it isn't so much the percentages it's that the goal by the femanist lobby is to see that percentage go up. I'm not sure if you see what I'm getting at here or if I need to spell it out.

Those numbers come from Baroness Stern a goverment hired independent source meant to track those numbers specifically.

Little hint... how many baronesses do you know in the US?

Baroness Stern is a person... who tracked rape convictions... for the UK.  The 14% rate is the number of people tried for rape who are convicted of rape. 

The 58% is the number of people convicted of anything... so minor assault, public indency, anything.

The percentage of people who are convicted based on rapes reported is 6%. 

So no... conviction rate is still much lower.  People are still convicted in the case, but not for the actual crime... unlike the vast majority of other crimes... in the UK.

Though yes.  It would be good it more people who were raped were bought to justice..

I finally get what your trying to say... the problem with what your trying to say is completely without merit you could ask, basically any law, pscychology or sociology expert who's remotely studied the issue.

Check my info and you'll see where I'm from ^_^

Also your coming off a bit rude now and I've been nothing but silent towards it so far. Good for you, so I guess you want to turn this into a psychology, sociology and law citation war.  If you do I'll take the 15 minutes to post at least a dozen independent sources from professionals who track misandry or misogyny.

Now if you want to be meaningful you can start by not making wild assertions that your backed by an imaginary group of professionals thus so am I and start off the citation battle with some citations from independent sources. ^_^

On that topic I'm not sure what you meant by your bolded in the UK. Do you mean I should be observing the case of the topic or the one that hasn't happened yet?

1. NY Times - http://tierneylab.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/08/20/is-there-anything-good-about-men-and-other-tricky-questions/

This is a good conceptual link: it deals with misandry only indirectly and lays the ground work for understanding the points that you can rest assured are not my own conclusions but ones that I can say present strong and rational arguments. If anything the author and Dr. Baummiester approach the topic from a very objective maybe even egalitarian angle. (You may see it differently)

2. Weekly Standard -  http://www.weeklystandard.com/author/christina-hoff-sommers

This article was done by Prof. Christina Hoff Sommer an opinionated but statistical reporter that is reliable for her sources as well as her professionalism. In this one you will find more information in regards to lobbyists… within America though but she has done other articles and literature on misandry internationally.

Now I'm only going to post one more to get us started, if you respond with your own sources for those professionals your talking about, I'm going start bringing hardcover and resource topics into this thread like the one below ;D

3.  Legalizing Misandry - A book by Nathanson and Young describing misandry with much of the context that Dr. Baummiester approaches the subject with.  The book deals more with countries other than the US and not just western societies either.

Now, please hint me on to some of your sources and I'll see if I either can debunk the study myself through reason and history or find someone who may have already with facts and logic. If none exist I will back down and you can walk away the knight in shining armor that you are and I would have a new stronger point of view that does not position 49% of the human race to repeat history.

Debilitating laws are exactly that; a law should not be prohibitive or empowering based on skin color, gender or ethnicity.

If none exist I will back down and you can walk away the knight in shining armor that you are and I would have a new stronger point of view that does not position 49% of the human race to repeat history.

Debilitating laws are exactly that; a law should not be prohibitive or empowering based on skin, gender or ethnicity.

Ok, now this is just getting painful. Also, what does the UK have to do with anything when you were talking specifically about the USA?  Though, keep in mind, I still totally disproved you since only 14% of people tried for rape are convicted for rape.  Conviction numbers in the uk may be similar... however rape convictions are not.  It's near impossble to get arrested for rape.

1)  This speech has a lot of problems with it, but the first 4 are simpliest to see.

A)  The biggest is... he doesn't know what "Patriarchy" means.  A "Patriachy" is a social system in which the role of the male as the primary authority figure is central to social organization, and where fathers hold authority over women, children, and property.

It's not a conspiracy of men holding down women... it's a way of thinking through culture, that gives men authority over women.  This isn't just an issue with men as it's also an issue with women. 

A race comparisson is fairly apt here.  In a study in the book "Blink: The power of thinking without thinking" they show many research studies in which negative aspects are always given by default to the minority instead of the white person.  Even when the person is of that minority.  That is what culture does and what is the problem.  Culture needs to be changed, and culture is changed by education.

He probably doesn't know what the defintion means because his disicipline is self esteem, so he's kinda off the reservation here.

B) It justifies all inequality.

Afterall the same arguements could be applied to slavery in the US.  Rich white landowners were in the fields he was talking about, while slaves were focused on less important "focusing on the small stuff" arguements. 

C) What would of happened to a group of women in the 1700's who decided they wanted to go exploring?  It's not like there weren't women who tried to enter theise fields.  They were specifically held out of them and excluded from them.  

D) He also implies the "Not all men are rich" arguement, which again, related to race is the same as the "Not all white men are rich" arguement.  Which is a true arguement, however he tries to extend the argeument to stupid levels.

Not all white men are rich, therefore you shouldn't hate all white men.  However that doesn't mean their is an inequality problem.

2) I don't see your issue here.  The Gini coefficent dropped during the stimulus.  I don't see too many people argueing "Therefore all the stimulus money should be focused on rising the gini coefficent."

3)  Er, you do know that Nathanson and Young aren't experts right?  They're degrees are in "Religious studies".  From an actual expert on that book...

[H]ad the authors made this important connection between culture and structure they would see that there is no negative outcome of misandric stereotypes of men in popular culture. In fact, stereotypes that link men to power, technology and dirt (as Tim Allen) continue to ensure gendered hierarchies in the work force that reward men.

—Nancy Lewis-Horne, The Canadian Review of Sociology and Anthropology

[T]he methodology that selectively examines some examples of popular culture and not others and then asks us to accept their interpretation as relevant and not others severely limits the potential of the research findings.

—Nancy Lewis-Horne, The Canadian Review of Sociology and Anthropology

Essentially, it was a book written based soley on cherrypicking.  Which, is something you should be familiar with on this website.

 

As for my sources... I guess I could provide some, though i'd just say "Look at the vast bulk of studies published in the vast majority of journals".

If you've actually tried to research the subject I find it ratehr odd that you haven't come across what is the vast majority consensus opinion.

 

There are vague minor issues in which there are problems in which men get the short end of the stick, which also need to be addressed but they are the minority... and very specifically don't include men being accused of rape being considered guilty.  Which is what you started this arguement about..

Just how, again to bring it back to race... white big dudes in the NBA tend to face draft discrimination.  That happens, but people wouldn't argue that suddenly "White dudes as a whole are being repressed."

Which in general is the patern of these kind of arguements "Look, two or three bad things happen to us too, therefore it's equal to the dozens and dozens of things you go through."

Though of course, you're veering extremely off the topic at this point.



Eh, for the hell of it I tracked down a core reading list  for gender studies for sociology.  This is literally just the "Core" list of books you are requried to read before you are considered to have a doctorate in gender sociology.  These are literally just the very basics... and they pretty much all go against your arguement... which is probably why the people you cited were writing out of discipline... if they actually had to study what they were argueing before they made the arguement... the wouldn't make the arguement because they'd realize it's dumb.

They were the only people that could be found to do so.

As for trying to disprove them all.... it would probably take you a while. 

Along with them, it would be helpful for you to read

1)  This speech has a lot of problems with it, but the first 4 are simpliest to see.

A)  The biggest is... he doesn't know what "Patriarchy" means.  A "Patriachy" is a social system in which the role of the male as the primary authority figure is central to social organization, and where fathers hold authority over women, children, and property.

It's not a conspiracy of men holding down women... it's a way of thinking through culture, that gives men authority over women.  This isn't just an issue with men as it's also an issue with women.

A race comparisson is fairly apt here.  In a study in the book "Blink: The power of thinking without thinking" they show many research studies in which negative aspects are always given by default to the minority instead of the white person.  Even when the person is of that minority.  That is what culture does and what is the problem.  Culture needs to be changed, and culture is changed by education.

B) It justifies all inequality.

Afterall the same arguements could be applied to slavery in the US.  Rich white landowners were in the fields he was talking about, while slaves were focused on less important "focusing on the small stuff" arguements. 

C) What would of happened to a group of women in the 1700's who decided they wanted to go exploring?  It's not like there weren't women who tried to enter theise fields.  They were specifically held out of them and excluded from them.  

D) He also implies the "Not all men are rich" arguement, which again, related to race is the same as the "Not all white men are rich" arguement.  Which is a true arguement, however he tries to extend the argeument to stupid levels.

Not all white men are rich, therefore you shouldn't hate all white men.  However that doesn't mean their is an inequality problem.

2) I don't see your issue here.  The Gini coefficent dropped during the stimulus.  I don't see too many people argueing "Therefore all the stimulus money should be focused on rising the gini coefficent."

3)  Er, you do know that Nathanson and Young aren't experts right?  They're degrees are in "Religious studies".  From an actual expert on that book...

[H]ad the authors made this important connection between culture and structure they would see that there is no negative outcome of misandric stereotypes of men in popular culture. In fact, stereotypes that link men to power, technology and dirt (as Tim Allen) continue to ensure gendered hierarchies in the work force that reward men.

As for my sources... I guess I could provide some, though i'd just say "Look at the vast bulk of studies published in the vast majority of journals".

If you've actually tried to research the subject I find it ratehr odd that you haven't come across what is the vast majority consensus opinion.

 

There are vague minor issues in which there are problems in which men get the short end of the stick, which also need to be addressed but they are the minority... and very specifically don't include men being accused of rape being considered guilty.  Which is what you started this arguement about..

Just how, again to bring it back to race... white big dudes in the NBA tend to face draft discrimination.  That happens, but people wouldn't argue that suddenly "White dudes as a whole are being repressed."

 

Though of course, you're veering extremely off the topic at this point.

 

I'll respond to your post in reverse:

You brought up how unfair the women were being treated by myself and I believe another poster, I'm pointing out that it is a rape case and no one should be considered guilty or innocent before a verdict. How I did this was by presenting the corollary argument of your misogyny arguement.

I brought up the issue you illustrated yes, but I also explained that a man coming from war as a POW should not have to (This is a US soldier by the way) serve time in  an American jail for not paying child support while he was a POW in Iraq.

Now if you are as researched as you claim you know I'm speaking specifically of the VAWA act here. The capability of the act to on it's own eliminate due process speaks volumes.

Yes, they are both religion majors which says something else about the book all together but one holds a PhD. in ethics as well, they received alot of hell for writing that book but they also received their fair share of credit for it. I would be making up a ratio if I ever gave you one of those qualified who were against the observations of that book to those who agreed.

Man or woman his argument is that both either lived like kings or the poor, the logic for men to be in a better position is consequential to the type of labor that was desirable being suited to men physiologically. If the jobs that put food on the table and value to the land were tending to homes and the like women would have been only slightly better off.

Also skipping a lot. The whole point of the first paragraph was that when clear unlawful intercourse convictions can’t be attained other related methods are employed and have a 58% conviction rate. Of course that's just England.

So copy pasted the core readings >_>, you've been misleading in a few points but now your just using low blows.

Well then I think I'll try to 1up you on this, explain each one briefly for me just like I did for my first three, do that and I'll work on supplying you with an hopefully equal amount of sources.

(This is just for copy pasting that crud)

I also don't see the point in posting the core readings when all I would have to do is cite someone with a Phd who write in the same context I've been posting in. Like Warren Farrell or the aforementioned Christina Hoff Sommers who at the very least in both their cases had to have read some of those books to earn their Ph.D in Ethics.



I'm Unamerica and you can too.

A)Nobody has been trating Assange as being guilty before the trial.


As for the rest... yes it's copied and pasted core readings.  Which I got from an expert in the field, who finds your positon... ignorant. 

Hence the Engles link, in general they said someone who believes that way should "start from the beggining" if they want to actually learn something, though in general probably thought you were being intentionally and willfully ignroant, considering that well... the vast majority of the evidence is againt you, and to find such information and not realize it, you probably had to intentionally be looking for that kind of idea.

And no, citing people who aren't experts in the field does not counter it. Hell finding one lone researcher who actually has a degree in what is being talked about wouldn't.  Finding a few people that disagree with a basic accepted fact doesn't change anything anymore then the people who push intellegent design.

Fact is, you've offered nothing but pure fringe ideas from people who aren't experts in the field they are talking on.  The core beliefs and accepted fact of gender studies all directly go against your claims.


You'll find the occasional fringe arguement for literally, everything.  The mere presense of holocaust deniers existing proves that.  Regardless, at the very core, the ideas you've presented are considered completely not credible by the experts at large of gender studies... and that's just the sociological branch.

I mean honestly, what does it tell you when to get a degree to be an expert on the subject, basically every book and piece of research you have to read disagrees with your opinion? Reserach that has been going on for over 100 years.

I mean, you do realize that  is what your arguement is here.

"I know that basically every book and study that is considered important for being an expert on the topic says i'm wrong. However, I can find a couple people who disagree, who are very tangentially related to the field that disagree thereofre i am disproving it."

It's hard to have an arguement, because in general your opinion is so fundamentally wrong, that we literally would have to deconstruct everything and start back from the very start and very basics of it.  I mean, you want to try and disregard basically all credible accepted knowledge on the subject... of which, there is a lot.

I don't mean to sound contempful, but it's hard not too... as you are argueing a position that's about as equal in credibility as things like "being gay is a choice".  So it's hard to not come off that way.
