    Nope.... I was just pointing out contradiction of equality while still wanting/expecting privilege.

    Men can always compete because men built the world. Thus, society would crumble much faster without men than without women.

    The 2020 pandemic was a perfect example -- just look at which gender was mostly still working and who was not.

    What I'm offended by is you asserting that I DId have some sort of conversation with any student about gender classification.
    Which I never did nor would I.

    I was a dining room manager at the beginning of my my post chef career. And very proud of it.
    Sorry my advancement in my field is so upsetting to you.

    I know I shouldn't be offended by some rando.
    But I'm proud of my journey from dishwasher to where I am now. And your trying to belittle my profession shows so much more about you than me.

    Work is done.
    I'm going home to my wife, my dog, and my Titos.
    Enjoy pressing your refresh consistently lying in wait for your next witty response.

    If you give me your venmo stamp I will send you 20 bucks to be a contributing member.

    Yep…. you were pointing out of how men want all the privilege but not the accountability.

    Us men literally didn’t allow women to compete in much of our history and now they are outcompeting us.

    Society would crumble without either…. Look at how men like yourself are acting now that you have to compete against women…. You are falling apart.

    Then I would be a murderer, as I would want and support my girlfriend having an abortion because we don’t want kids.

    I can actually see this. I’ve had feminists tell me similar things before. One was upset that a guy didn’t pay for her meal on a first date:
    • Me: 'But you’re independent and can pay for yourself.'
    • Her: 'Guys should pay on the first date—it’s nice to.'
    • Me: 'Well, I’m glad this isn’t a date then.'

    Another told me she likes a man to take charge in bed.

    One time, I was at a feminist friend’s house, and she thought some homeless guy was messing with our cars. Of course, I went to check, but really what happened to being a strong woman? Why do I have to put myself in potential danger? /sarcasm.

    Now, I’m not saying all women are like this, some are genuinely independent and don’t need anyone, but I’d say most want a man around when it counts.

    Kind of related, during the Caitlin Clark hype, my wife complained about no one going to WNBA games and how men's sports get all the attention. I asked her if she’d ever been to a WNBA game herself, and she just laughed because she realized she hadn't. She actually only goes to men's games.

    The idea that women have little to no accountability compared to men is absurd - and I am saying that as someone that likes you.

    Women in the world have to constantly deal with consequences when men do not.

    You really are trying to be offended about your profession when I'm telling you I'm mentioning your profession in relation to your natural access to having a conversation with 19 year old college girls about gender ideology and fearing being canceled from it.


    Your profession doesn't naturally interact with college aged girls in regards to gender identity. It's weird to feel like you can be cancelled from it.

    Again the same thing applies to a mma fighter, mechanical engineer etc.

    I'd find myself creepy if I ever feared being canceled because I decided to talk to 18 year old college girls unprovoked about deeply personal sexual and gender questions because I'm not a gender studies professor so I don't see how I'd ever be in a position to even have this conversation with a 19 year old college girl.

    You are creepy for thinking about this kind of stuff and gearing "being canceled" because you asked a college girl "what is a woman". That's weird. And now you are trying to turn this weird idea of yours into a offense on your profession.

    in college I worked pizza delivery. one of my coworkers would get off before me and I'd ask her to ride along the rest of my shift. she'd take the pizza to the customer and 100% of the time get a much larger tip than I would have gotten, especially from dudes. it was pretty hilarious. people were so surprised to see a female delivery driver and especially at nighttime.

    I say that because although women deal with a whole bunch of crap they shouldn't, it's still a two way street.

    One thing about right wing incel types is that they create these scenarios in their heads to be offended by. You see this on social media she's like reddit all the time where incel communities post hate filled comments about women over some content of a parody video where the actual events didn't occur but was just a parody.


    If a woman is complaining about the man not paying for the first date, she most likely doesn't self label as a feminist.

    Women exist who do believe they are naturally subservient to men. We call them conservative women, trad wives etc.

    There is no "it depends".

    Whether someone believes it's just a cluster of cells or baby, everybody knows that drugs and alcohol have real potential to harm whatever is in the womb -- regardless if you introduce legal consequences.

    The fact you have to say "mind your business", is just a silly deflection -- especially when many mothers aren't saying "mind your own business" to the government or insurance companies when they're asking for help/funds to facilitate the costs for abortion or child care if the baby comes to term.

    This goes back to the "freedom without accountability" I was commenting earlier.

    It's basically saying, "let me do what I want to do, but you pay for it".

    There's no slippery slope. People know pregnant women should not be drinking/drugging or smoking cigarettes whether it's a cluster of cells or a baby.

    Too many times Choicers pretend an early-term fetus is a just some inanimate thing. Most of those same people who want a healthy baby will *not* be drinking/drugging at any point after knowing they are pregnant. Why? because they know every week matters.

    Should men have the right to abort financially?

    Should paternity tests be mandatory at birth?

    Should there be a penalty for women who lie about paternity? (Lies of omission are lies too.)

    what is hate filled about my reply? Many people, regardless of their beliefs or stances on gender roles, hold a mix of traditional and progressive views and sometimes without realizing it. you must not know many women/haven't had much experience with them.

    Dude you haven't dated a woman under 40 if you are b****ing about the "hypocrisy" of feminists asking to pay for the first date. This is what I refer to as made up scenarios in your head to be offended by.

    Again, there are conservative leaning women who expect the man to pay for the first date. But they aren't the ones usually pushing for women to be more independent. You see this within religious communities to a great deal where conservative women accept their roles as subservient to men.

    Nope... I'm simply responding to the people who think early-term fetuses are merely a cluster of cells, thus they didn't kill a baby.

    I also never said mothers should go to jail. I'm saying abortion is killing a baby. It's just not to the level of manslaughter or 1st/2nd degree murder.

    You can believe that. I'm just staying you are lying when you said "I'm not denying women the choice".

    You are when you believe they are baby killers unless you believe people who murder babies shouldn't be incarcerated.

    Yeah.... beware !!!!!!!

    Nope, I just don't speak politically correct.

    It's the truth though -- that's why you and most people's rebuttals are deflection and ad hominem.
