As a man what advantages do I have over a woman?

[chris_987]

I generally want to know

[Babybebe15]

- can pee while standing
- have better pay
- be hairy and it be acceptable 😂
- barely have to shave
- physically stronger
- it’s safer to be a man
- don’t have politics dictating what you do with your body
- don’t get slut shamed easily
- don’t have to take birth control
- don’t have to be pregnant
- don’t have to give birth
- don’t have post-partum issues
- less likely to get sexualized like women
- don’t have to do much to get dressed up


The list could go on loool. This isn’t to complain, but to answer your question.

These don't sound like advantages, they sound like biology. Like if I said you get to sit down when you pee how is that a disadvantage cause I have to aim and if I mess up girls will complain, physical stronger is not really and advantage because girl will abuse you now because they think punches don't hurt you. Politician dictate how we spend our money so we can go broke just paying child support, they might debate on abortion but they never even consider the idea that men should not be forced to pay for a child she doesn't want to abort. Yeah it's all biology cause men dont see those as advantages

- Physical strength: Unless the woman knows self-defense or some techniques (I've been in Judo for 7 months now), if a crazy man gets violent, strangles her or is on the process of raping her, she's helpless and can't really effectively fight him physically. We're more likely to be victims of sexual assault if we were to walk late at night.

- Prolongued time to father kids: You are the gatekeeper of commitment if a woman wants marriage and kids regardless if her time is running out or not. If a man continue keeping her as a forever, childless girlfriend then she can't do nothing to change his mind. She's hopeless in that relationship and has to find another new man and start all over; time against her while the man can still father kids even at old ages.

- Not judged for being monogamous or promiscuous: You can be either of those guys. You can be an ''only in a relationship/marriage'' type of man and fine. Many women find that sweet and guys won't care too much. Or you can be the player type that sleeps around and some people of both genders will either praise you for that or simply don't care. You're not shamed for either of those two. However, a woman is only praised for being monogamous but shamed by both genders for sleeping around.

I disagree with most of what you said because you label them as disadvantages, but that like say the one person that one the lottery has the advantage over people who didn't win.

Let me explain, physical strength is not a advantage over women because men are 17 times stronger than women, but bears are also 17 stronger than men so does the bear have an advantage over us maybe but why would a man fight a bear with his bear hands. Same with a woman.

You also mentioned marriage and commitment. But think about this men have to learn how to ask a woman out and approach her for dates generally speaking. So if let's so only 20% of men are capable of asking women out then the majority of women rely on those men to ask them out. So it fair in the fact that woman only can choose from the men that have met the threshold of not being awkward around women. So it's not an advantage of men have to play by a different set of rules.

Same goes for promiscuity. Men in order to be promiscuous have to reach a level where they have confidence to get girls. Which is actually a small minority of men, usually it's the guys that's abusive. So you can complain about being called a slut when it's take no effort for women to sleep with 100 men on month. For a guy to do the equivalent he'd have to be Drake or Justin Bieber levels of value.

In terms of physical strength I was only referring to the real life cases of sexual attacks or violence women have to face; the ones that some men do. I'm not really to the pathetic ''get me shove this guy and I'll then scream victim if he shoves back'' stupid women.
I'm referring to the ones that were real victims and couldn't do nothing to defend themselves against such attack by a violent boyfriend/husband or against rape. You shouldn't compare people to animals. A person is a civilized being that talks, can communicate through a specific language, are capable of constructing houses and buildings for shelter, can change an environment more suitable for their needs and have a more developed brain with though processes, capable of thinking before just purely acting out of instinct for the sake of it. Animals on the other hand don't think nor have those specific capacities. Stupid comparison. Humans are humans. Animals are animals.

As for commitment and promiscuity. Well the point is the man decide to either be a player or only into one woman his life and he can fit into either categories. In an ideal world, there shouldn't be any praising nor shaming in someone's sex life or lack of it. People should mind their own business. It's really no one's business whether you into marrying your love or you had been with 10+ partners.

[Vesuvius87]

If you wanted to use a comparison, instead of putting a bear it should have been an average Joe man trying to fight a martial artist such as Matt Sierra. At least I would've agreed with that comparison and say '''yeah he's stupid''.

[chris_987]

I disagree with the notion that you shouldn't dig into a person's past, I know for a fact most girls would be turn off by a guy with a gay past or is on the sex offenders registry. So a woman's past is very important to men, regardless if you feel it's wrong. And we have good reasons for looking into a girls past.

[Vesuvius87]

That's different. If we're looking for a relationship with someone with the same goals and mindset, then you can have deal-breakers. What I meant is you don't have to go out of your way with people you're not even having any relationship with and shaming them publically or cyber bulllying them about it.

[chris_987]

Lol who does that? Men could careless about about a women who is in a relationship

[Vesuvius87]

I once heard a post about a girl still in HS (10th grade I think) that was getting bullied by her classmates of both genders just because she had casual sex meanwhile they said nothing to the guy. In my mind I'm thinking ''why the hell is it any of your business, leave her alone...''

How about no one telling a man what to do with his body? Tell me one thing, that is even a dabate (!) that men have to do with their bodies against their will? For women, you guessed it, abortion.

[chris_987]

If I take out a body out of your body and burry it in a grave, are people gonna dig up that body and say it was your body? Yeah I don't have abortion arguments with people that don't live in reality.
