    men don’t universally conform to a stereotype

    therefore they must all confirm to a different stereotype

    also women bad

      Replace “women bad” with “men bad” and you’ve just described feminism.

        That’s a small group of people. Not feminism as a whole. Feminism in general aims at overcoming the patriarchy and therefore creating true equality between the genders. Overcoming the patriarchy also means, that men are liberated from its chains. This means, that men are allowed to cry and show feelings without being judged.

        Feminism is not something, that aims at dragging men down, but eleveting society as a whole.

        That isn’t feminism.

        And I should know, I am a feminist and I don’t hate myself.

        That stereotype is equally as dumb as saying men don’t have emotions.

    Maybe women would rather be mauled by bears than talk to you for a reason.

      Any generalization of this kind, positive or negative, struggles to capture individuality.

      It’s stupid to argue “men are deeply emotional as a group, because some poet was male”

      It’s equally stupid to argue “men are dangerous as a group, because some rapist was male”

      Men, and women, are all different, and there is so much more variability within each gender than between them.

      • queermunist@lemmy.ml ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

        Yeah, I understand that gender goes beyond this pink and blue “men are like this, women are like this” bullshit.

        Sounds like a “no” to me.

        Stop trying to take credit for the accomplishments of other men and try making some art yourself. I promise you won’t regret it.

        If you grow up you’ll realize your hatred is self hatred and your problems are due to your lack of confidence.

        You are really broken, and you’ll be alone until you fix yourself.

        You’re right that no woman deserves you, but not for the reasons you think

    I think a few people here have to remind themselves:

    If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

      Okay but sometimes Anon is actually right. Which is kinda crazy, but a broken clock can be correct twice a day.

        Someone quoted Sappho earlier, love poetry written by a woman that has lasted 2500 years, and you shat on that.

        There’s plenty of work written by women using male pseudonyms because women were forbidden to write.

        There’s a lot of other writing by women that was simply suppressed for the same reason.

        I submit, for your consideration, ‘At Last’ by Etta James, as one example; the many works of Emily Dickinson; and probably a non-zero number of works attributed to men (Such as the Brönte Sisters) since women have not been socially allowed to benefit from the arts until reletively recently.

        I could list more but it seems clear from your comments you don’t actually want an answer to the question.

    Anon, tell me you’ve never read Sappho without saying “I never read Sappho”:

    Some say an army of horsemen,
some of footsoldiers, some of ships,
is the fairest thing on the black earth,
but I say it is what one loves.

It’s very easy to make this clear
to everyone, for Helen,
by far surpassing mortals in beauty,
left the best of all husbands

and sailed to Troy,
mindful of neither her child
nor her dear parents, but
with one glimpse she was seduced by

Aphrodite. For easily bent...
and nimbly...[missing text]...
has reminded me now
of Anactoria who is not here;

I would much prefer to see the lovely
way she walks and the radiant glance of her face
than the war-chariots of the Lydians or
their footsoldiers in arms.

      That doesn’t even rhyme. Garbage.

      source
      • lvxferre@mander.xyz ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

        In case you are not joking:

        This was translated from Ancient Greek. Of course it won’t rhyme; Ancient Greek poetry is based on foot and pitch, not rhymes. And even if it used rhymes the translation would butcher them.

        Calling it garbage because it doesn’t rhyme is like looking at a translation of Shakespeare into Japanese, and saying it’s garbage because Shakespeare was a functional illiterate that couldn’t count morae.

        Regardless, the poem already shows a woman talking about romantic love around 600 BCE. It’s already enough to tear apart what Anon is saying. Insert mentions of patriarchy here.

        If you’re joking: derp.

    Fake: Anon almost manages to question whether there’s a problem with predatory culture, but fails at it.

    Gay: literally the post, anon worships men

    Real answer, up until the last parts Anon was doing so well. The issue is that a lot of women fear men because unlike bears, a lot of them have bad apples who can manipulate well, and they are also likely to harass for longer… a bear will just maul you or chill, much simpler, more predictable.

    source
    • Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      No matter what bear, you know what you are getting, a fucking bear.

      No matter what man, you have no idea what you are getting, they could be a saint or a monster or both.

      source
    • blarghly@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Imo, women would prefer the bear because we’ve reached a level in our wildlife education where women realize that bears are generally passive towards humans, and are an interesting thing to encounter in the woods. While a man is pretty ho-hum.

      The point is, if you’re in the woods with a bear, you’re probably never going to see it. The bear will actively leave you be. The human… You don’t know. They could be actively seeking you out for the sole purpose of hurting you for fun.
