Not at all. I just think women have fewer issues, or less severe ones in Western societies. Could be a "grass is greener" situation, but that's just my opinion. I can think of very few reasons to not prefer being a woman.
This reeks of red pill incel rhetoric, honestly.
The president of the United States was involved with sex trafficker. I promise you, sexual assault against women is not being taken seriously either.
You mean the sex trafficker who went to prison for exactly that?
I wish the guy who assaulted me went to prison for it... or anything, really. Instead, when I reported it, they just took photos of my extensive bruising and lacerations on my neck from strangulation, "lost" the clothes with DNA I gave them, and did nothing to the man. They asked me multiple times if I was gay, as if they didn't believe I wasn't (as if that'd even matter).
I had to file a federal lawsuit myself since no lawyers care, and men don't have the same organizational or social support. I'm alone in this, currently in the federal court of appeals retrying to reverse a summary judgment.
"But women have that problem too!" is literally an "All lives matter" take, is it not?
No, I mean the president who has been found liable for SA, and countless other accusations and blatantly obvious corruptions around this trafficking ring.
I agree. It's horrible that this happened to you. This is a huge problem, and it's not exclusive to male victims like you seem to think.
You're truly a lost cause here. Won't be engaging any further with this disengenous argument.
No, the "all lives matter" comparison seems spot on. No problem is unique to men or women or people of color. Yet some problems are clearly worse for those groups.
You're acting like I'm saying women are universally believed and supported. In reality, it's just much better for them, even if not perfect.
