Sorry mate, this is complete horseshit and smells alot like a men's rights advertisement. IMO, here's why.

Men and women are biologically different, but that doesn't manifest in a noticeable performance differences across many domains. For example, I love women's MMA. Women fight differently than men, but the fights are just as exciting. Same with women's football or math or playing the violin or sexual appetites.

However, particular male attributes, such as violence against women and what I call the privilege of certainty, really stand out. These characteristics of masculinity manifest in toxic, anti-social ways that feminism will eradicate with selective genetic pruning.

Men who blame women for their problems don't need to become women, they need to embrace social behaviors, empathy and communication. None of which fit the classical masculine profile promoted by popular cultures. Therefore do not blame feminists for men's problems with masculinity, blame the men who choose not to evolve.

TLDR; The problem is with socialization of gender roles, not with masculinity per se.

What an absolute crock. I teach MMA and the level of womens MMA is much lower than mens. Something that is said during nearly every single womens MMA fight.

There is a reason why outrageous finishes like flying armbar's are much more likely to work in women's MMA than men's. And that is the massive disparity in technique.

You are talking nonsense. Women's MMA is far far behind men's technique wise. This is not even up for debate in circles which are actually educated and experienced on the topic.

2020 FOTY Zhang vs. Joanna

You should not be teaching women with an attitude like that. As with bball and football, women's game emphasizes technique over brute force and speed. The exact opposite of your opinion.

Give me one example of an outrageous finish like masvidal vs askren. You are so full of shit amigo.

'One swallow does not a summer make'.

A singular example does not define or describe or imply a trend.

False equivalency. And if you have to resort to personal attacks your argument is bunk.

It's called a counter example to your bogus claim. This is how debates are won. Instead of whining about my rhetoric and tapping out, you could have made an actual argument with a premise, supporting facts and a conclusion.

I called you out because your initial point was nothing but hot air and undeserving of respect. Your second bite at the apple is even more limp. Don't know why I bother playing with such intellectual lightweights.

Snark meet condescension. Condescension this is snark.

You want respect? Earn it by sincerely adding something meaningful to the conversation.

Otherwise fuck off :)

Imagine thinking that telling people to fuck off online has any effect what so ever.

So not only are you thick as a plank you are an arrogant twat to boot.

What a combo. Absolute winner. Keep being wrong and pig headed.

Tata now buttercup.

You still complaining snowflake? Just because I pushed back on your unsupported opinion? You can curl up into a little ball or make an argument. I'm here to push back on ideas and you appear to be out of those.

You can have the last word since your self esteem looks a bit low.
