Comment on The one drawback to walking at night

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world ⁨14⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

I should have expected to see a bunch of whining when I opened the thread.

I’m also cis male and I am worried about strange men coming near me at night when no one is around. Because, you know, muggers and shit. They murder sometimes too. Does that make you whiny little bitches’ hurt feelings go away?

My brother is a cis male too, he was assaulted and robbed, but two males (at least seemingly so, can’t exactly say what they ideify as 6 years later).

Just a bunch of males who only complain about the statistics of men being harmed when women talk about systemtic sexism. They’d probably also loudly claim that white people are victims of racism too when a black people talks about being harassed by cops.

Fucking hate Reddit 2.0 for this shit.

  Well I was just called a bigot for daring to say that calling quoting the statistic that men commit more murders than women sexism is no different from calling quoting the statistic that most crimes in Sweden are committed by white people racism. So there’s no probably about it in my mind.

    Same people will gladly hurl slurs and sexist remarks then call it misandry when a woman said she doesn’t need a man with a dildo, or reverse racism when a black person said they enjoy spices in their meals.

    Heaven forbid that woman say she doesn’t need a man because there are other women.

Yup, and we are less likely to be targeted. Also, not a whole lot of women out there murdering around town at night.

  More likely to be targeted. But more likely to be the attacker as well. The ways to lower those numbers come from building up to the lower and middle class though. More crime comes from desperate people in desperate times. Help the people, minimize the problem. (It won’t ever fully go away, so I can’t ever say get rid of the problem)
