So apparently being an egalitarian does not include women's rights to the OP.

Okay, yikes..... If you're gonna ragebait, at least be smart about it. Acting like a Low-IQ monkey will only embarass you even more.

Answer the question Mr.“News flash, women have it faaaaaaaaar better than men.” - Do you think #AllLivesMatter?

Hey clown , I saw your original comment!

Do you also say All Lives Matter - because after all that includes Black lives.

[–] biotin7@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 minute ago

Of course I do. But you don't

Ragebait art by someone who wants to seek rage from both sides. Mastered art.

Women have equality and a generally preferable status in Western society. I sure as hell wish I was a woman. My sexual assault would've been taken seriously, police would be less suspicious and hostile toward me, better education opportunities, better financial support.

Focusing on their issues is comparable to an egalitarian focusing on issues that affect white people. I'm sure everyone here would question that, right?

As a guy that was falsely accused of domestic violence and rape, I experienced firsthand the huge difference in how such accusations are viewed. I was assumed guilty, especially by law enforcement, the legal community and friends, neighbors and coworkers I wasn't close with. It was tough, and embarrassing too.

That said, I fully understand that I was the odd case. Far more women genuinely experience sexual assuault and abuse by men and struggle to get the support they need than men that experience what I did... the difference is orders of magnitude. Just because I experienced some unequal treatment based on my gender doesn't change the fact that women disproportionately suffer greatly at the hands of men and awareness and change is needed.

My personal experience doesn't diminish the vastly greater numbers of women that suffer worse.
