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.

Do you people have upvote parties for this mind-numbingly stupid nonsense?

Remember that there is a large radfem presence on the site now, and this is a thread on the front page that is blaming feminists for the problem of trans activism. This is a departure from the popular view that TRAs exist because men are privileged because of patriarchy.

I doubt there was any coordination, it's more likely that any radfem reading this upvoted because it tries to turn it back around and say men are the problem. And those same radfems are unlikely to know enough about MMA to have caught this nonsense.

Good! I hope they choke on every word I write.
