Yet some people believe misandry isn't real.
What would it achieve?
I know you feel repressed because other people are suddenly wanting rights too!
Omg can you believe it? How dare they want to be equal to men. The world must be coming to an end... So sad... Men are so repressed in today's nations!
Wake up and smell the stench boy! If you'd ever get the idea to look beyond your bedroom doors, you'd realize that the UN is not representing your neighborhood alone where you believe women are stripping you of your god given right to destroy the planet. More nations are struggling with discrimination agains women than you could think of.
Just a few example, 2 days ago Nepal passed a law forbidding families to relocate women into dens during their periods and after giving birth. Women die in those holes every year because those sheds the women are banned to have no sanitation, no heating and no proper locks.
Women in saudi arabia can not leave the house alone. They are literally forbidden to go anywhere. Women in india are killed over their dowries.
I don't see men being banned to sheds, getting forbidden to attend public places without their sisters/mothers /wives or men getting killed for not providing enough dowry. Women get raped and killed in india while going to the toilet because of lacking sanitation inside homes.
Of course the white American man you are, you don't see these things. You sit on your bed and whine all day because in the usa men have to pay child support and alimony to women they no longer get to sleep with.
Now if your attitude toward the world isn't selfish and self centered I don't know what is!
Women in Somalia cut young girls Clitoris, not men. Women in Western societies call other women sluts, not men.
In the days that women are kept in the kitchen, men had to go fight the wolves who attacked the sheep. And I'm pretty sure if you have a flat tire, you will call a man to come fix it up.
Don't blame your problems on men, instead you can take off the pussycat hat, man up and solve the damn problem.
@WhiteDuck and yet more men kill women than women do. So please stop being ignoran. More men are cutting men's genitalia too, what do you say to that?
I'm already doing my job, I'm not whining and I am solving problems. You don't know me and merely pointing out the facts makes you think I'm whining like you would do and you try to attack me personally. Why do you think you're so smart? No it's a fact that those countries are a society of male dominance and when women try to stand up for themselves they get killed or prisoned.
Look boy, you don't know me. Stop embarrassing yourself by drawing conclusions out of your derriere. I'm m an engineer. I worked with industrial milling and turning machines. I have welded metal pieces and assembled parts before I ever changed a flat tire. A flat tire is a joke to me. I'm working in a male dominated area tackling the same problems. You just make me laugh.
@WhiteDuck The women in Somalia do that because they're forced to by male tribal elders, it's not the women's fault
Glue-Sniffer
"you attack me personally" yeah I fully remember the time I hunt you down and stabbed you in the ass๐๐ค๐
Chill dude, we're just talking. And the word "you" is mostly toward women in general, not you yourself.
And all I'm saying is that most of these things you say are a bit retarded because in all of those countries in which you mentioned discrimination goes both ways.
You think that once upon a time men just started hitting and oppressing women?๐. The way that each gender rules are, is being determined by thousands of years of evolution of human societies. (too much "of" god dammit, white men are to blame)
I myself happen to live in a "women oppressor" country, in middle east. And I can assure you that this "men oppressing women" is MOSTLY bullshit. In here there's a law which allows women to file for divorce and send their husband to prison, if he doesn't pays for her expenses. It's called "nafaghe", you can search it. But I haven't seen anyone being sued for it because the society has EVOLVED to not use it.
And most of these things you talk about are religious beliefs. Thing like genital mutilation in both men and women, or women not being able to drive in KSA. And I can confidently say that women in middle east are way more religious than men, on average. You can search it.
And you think men aren't oppressed in anyway? Men don't have a safe house just dedicated to them for domestic violence, in US. And before stealing girls, buko Harram burned boys for going to school. Even Islamists discriminate in favor of women.
@WhiteDuck Yeah but again, it's male tribal elders who force them to do it, they don't want to do it to their own kind. Look, you're just an ignorant fool who had issues with other people, and you should let it go
@WhiteDuck Ditto, my friend, ditto. Keep on being a bigoted little boy; I love you for it.
@WhiteDuck oh really? You come from the middle east? So women not being allowed to file for divorce, needing their father's or paternal grandfather's permission to get married, not being allowed to leave the country and even having a passport without the permission of their husbands is not discrimination? Women inheriting only half of a male child is not discrimination? The man being allowed to have up to 4 wives without his wife's permission is okay but the woman isn't even allowed to object because the islamic laws say so. The woman is not allowed to leave outside of the house if the husband forbids it, I don't see any laws saying the same for men.
Look boy, I'm not sure if you understand the meaning of discrimination. It doesn't matter If it's religious or cultural. It exists. It's not like it's okay if it's religious.
I don't see any of these affecting any man. Take your head out of the sand and stop rationalizing bs.
Works outside of the house*
I'd say it's pretty pointless to have any day acknowledging anything.
Surely they should be recognised everyday and not just once a year.
It's a bit like how Christmas has become a day to recognise family and good will rather than just being a religious holiday (though it being commercialised probably has something to do with it).
I'd say it's pointless to have any day dedicated to some thing because it kind of makes it become less significant really since it's only one day to acknowledge it rather than it always being acknowledged which to me makes the whole idea of making it become acknowledged on a specific day pointless if you want a voice or opinion to be heard.
There shouldn't be a woman's day or men's day or any other day really it should be celebrated everyday and not once a year.
I suppose I'm repeating myself but to me it's pointless to celebrate anything really if it's only once a year.
But to be honest I feel that the fact that men's day isn't acknowledged (I hadn't even heard of it before this) just goes to show how the "majority" has become silenced over a vocal minority or even then the way it seems is that men are now treated lesser than women or even just lesser in general.
At this current point in time (GMT 22:44) the percentage of males to females is 50.4% for men and 49.6% for women and the global population is around 7.5 billion.
Yes, and February 24 is "Defend the Donut" Day. So fucking what. Organizations can apply to have nearly anything recognized as a "day." They usually do so to promote or fundraise for something. So, if you want it officially recognized, go get it done. Nobody just hands them out, somebody actually went and did paperwork. So, go for it.
Fyi, the responses of some males are pretty ridiculous. Anyone shouting about how women contributed nothing to the advancement of society is either stupid, or just not great with google. Both men and women have contributed to advance all of the fields we have to where they are now, and know what's funny? None of the actual leaders in any field discount the contributions of the opposite gender like those who sit on blogs and streetcorners and don't contribute in their own right. Every male and female who is/has contributed has been too focused on their work and actually contributing.
I'd love to see a male day recognized. There's a bunch of really badass things men have done just like women, and if anything, these silly days should be reminders of contributing something positive. Not whining about the opposite gender.
Could the BE any longer? ๐
And i believe they are stupid or didn't pay attention in history class lol.
@akadatank44 lol. And yes, there seem to be some male sjws on here who are the mirror image of exactly what they say the hate. Silly. This is how the ridiculous cycle continues, while the rest of the rational world actually works on solutions. Most often, by including both genders, other races, classes, etc, etc, etc. Sad to seem the division keep perpetuating, even on here. If you abdicate your position to speak rationally and include listening in your skill set, you abdicate your position of power to actually solve anything.
Exactly! But I meam c'mon if there's going to be a Men's Day there has to be at least an akadatank44 day because well I'm kinda a big deal ๐
media.tenor.com/.../tenor.gif
@akadatank44 lol, you can have Feb 29th ๐๐
I would love to see a national men's day get recognized- that's what real equality means. If we are going to have a women's day, we need a men's day too. Both genders are valuable and contribute greatly to society. Both deserve to be recognized and celebrated. I am 100% on board with that. However, I think it's important to keep in perspective that the current lack of recognition results from the fact that men were not traditionally discriminated against. There isn't the extensive history of oppression with men that there is with women.
just about every affirmative action or "equality" movement bases its grievances on oppression that was done in the PAST. Usually these activists and supporters weren't even alive when this crap was going on, but they act like they personally experienced all the discrimination in real time.
No, these people want these special recognition holidays because it benefits them and makes them feel special (usually for people who accomplished nothing on their own). However some of them go way to overboard which builds up animosity and division in other groups.
If we are really going to have equality in this world, we need to first recognize the past and address it was wrong. Then FORGIVE the race, gender, orientation, etc, etc for the past transgression that the CURRENT members usually had nothing to do with. Then we move on with a clean slate (and tolerate absolutely no further discrimination). Do away with ALL special holidays that have to do with gender, race, etc (I"m sure LGBT
will the next to demand their "special" holiday)
I did not but I could have guessed that easily. The UN is a cesspool of feminist ideologues. This is the same organization that first started the wage gap myth so I'm not surprised that they don't give a fuck about men lol
Yes, the UN is sexist and has many female only days but ignores male days. Feminist generally protest men's day.
@meganthemenace SINCE you blocked me like a typical ignorant feminist who doesn't like the truth to get out.
You don't need to ask me shit, you posted an ignorant comment on a public forum.
"women birthed men" is NOT an argument. We have artificial wombs now and can make eggs out of other cells. (Look it up)
If women gave equally in society, Men wouldn't be the majority of deaths in the work place, in the military, and in general.
You live longer simply because society protects you, gives you better health care, better support, etc.
You don't think you are privileged...
You have 250+ scholarships available for WOMEN ONLY
You can call the cops and have them believe you even when you lie.
You can expect people to run to your rescue when you are in need of help.
You will get better education, health care, etc.
Society is Gyncentric and if you think you don't have privilege... move to the middle east and see how easy you have it.
@meganthemenace and "meninist" isn't a thing. It's a mockery of feminidiots.
When I said built... I didn't mean physically you child. I meant invented. Did you ever hear of the wright brothers? or are you only keeping up with the kardashians?
@meganthemenace It's fun to see feminist children spewing hate and shaming tactics nonsense then blocking and reporting everyone that proves their idiocracy.
Opinion

If the UN is going to promote or plan world activities for days it recognizes I think it'd be important for them to *officially* recognize it but if they just put it on a list & leave it at that (since most people don't know what the UN does & doesn't do) it probably isn't that important.
BUT it *is* important for countries & communities to know & to do something about. Men's health education, Men's shed type initiatives & giving guys a platform to talk about things they've been through that can improve other guys lives & the community as a whole. It's when guys are built up by the women around them that they can encourage us to be all we can be.
Hey, the toilet was a great achievement. It was a great step forward and has greatly reduced the rate of death due to water-borne disease, among others. The sanitary sewer is humanity's crowning achievement, if you ask me. It was when we finally decided to lift ourselves up out of the gutters and into something clean.
I better never go camping again lol
there was an article on the fact that a lot of people don't have toliets in certain parts of the world in national geographic, it went into the reprecussions of it and also brought up how thailand solved the problem in a decade or so, it was rather good
@Waffles731 the toilet and the sanitary sewer. Best inventions there are.
that'd be like cooking I think, or the domestication of dogs
@Waffles731 yes, meat allowed our brains to evolve. But the sewer allowed us to live longer without shitting our guts out! I think that's pretty rad. But you know how much I love the fur babies.
We dont give dogs anywhere near as much credit as we should, in my opinion, they enabled us to be far better hunters than the neanderthals
Then after the neanderthals were gone they helped us sprear across the world
@Waffles731 and yet, without the toilet, we would still live in squalor.
Let's be real, who gives a fuck? who gives a duck about women's day? only women and white knights. It's a useless day, which has got promoted by business owners to sell stupid things like pussycat hat. Men don't buy stupid shit they don't need, so there's no point for having a man's day.
And this women's day, or kids day are like birthdays and wedding, stupid things that women like because it's meant to give them a sense of good feeling. I personally despite birthday cause I'm not a kid anymore.
And guys don't bring yourself down to women's level, they get hyped up with their own day, while we earn more on average.
Let the children have their cake.
There should not be need to have a men's day or even women's day. Except some parts of the world, no one needs awareness regarding gender equality. In developed societies those who don't understand equality, are never going to understand it anyway.
But I agree, if there's women's day, there should be a men's day as well.
I don't need a holiday to appreciate being a man. I carry a gun, I drive a truck made by people in my country, I listen to rock, I can cook a good steak, and yesterday I replaced the water softener for my house instead of paying someone else to do it.
Lets be honest everyday that's not someone else's is man's day. Everyone wants to be strive to be closer to a man's level or good for you for being different in this man controled world. It still the bench mark that all figure out where they fit in the world.
Im not saying its anyones fault but a slow evolution of ethics revolving around the self intrest of the once powerful since the start of man. See the "start of man" do men really need a day with normal phrases like these throw around.
The guy who started International Men's Day , did it to bring men and women together. Clearly from the responses from the women, we can see why men aren't as empathetic towards women anymore with their struggles, because they don't give a fuck about men. It takes two hands to clap... so if you want me to help you... you have to be willing to help me.
I don't know what that last sentence in your comment means.
You never heard that saying?
it means I'll help you with your problems, if you're willing to help me with mines.
Are you referring to how men and women should help each other?
Yes.
It shouldn't be recognised, nor should International Women's Day.
You get recognition and satisfaction through a job well done, not through having a penis or vagina.
But if there is a Women's Day, there should be a Men's Day; my point is that Women's Day must have been thought up by some severely autistic ape, and just shouldn't have been a thing in the first place.
Is anyone really surprised?
To put it plainly as a man I would care much less about "recognition" days if the feminists would just stop their victimization bullshit. They keep saying that gender shouldn't matter but at the same time want to be feel "special" and "entitled". #theredpill
The inference here, I anticipate, is that the UN recognises a women's day but not a men's day.
In 20 years time, you 20-somethings will be running your country. Please make a better job of it than the current rash of politicians.
I don't need a buncha corrupt, useless bastards in suits giving me permission to feel good. Every day is men's day in my life. I rule my roost. Leave all that shite for the weak and pathetic cunts
GAG made me realise that most females (at least those who are here on GAG) are nothing but stupid, selfish and ignorant people who havw an IQ of a nine year old. Just read the conversations here. Pathetic. They only have emotions for themselves, they can't think rationally and they are nowhere as compassionate as men.
Duh. Men are not allowed to feel pride or fight for their gender. Just like whites can't be proud of their race or Germans can't be proud of their pus past.
This reminds me of a joke I heard.
I had a friend in university major in women's studies, and I thought that it was pretty sexist that there was no men's studies to chose from. But then I realized there was a men's studies course, it's called History.
That's not men's studies, it's gender neutral.
I didn't even know there WAS an International Men's Day, but I don't care anyway. The UN could screw up a wet dream.
Who cares? That has zero impact on my life or any other rational guy whatsoever. That's like celebrating there being water in the ocean. Ridiculous.
and this effects anyone how? did you know thousands of people starved to death today, where is their celebration?
I can't even count the amount of fucks I have to give. Probably because there are zero
i can't believe so many women are saying "who cares" and just mocking it. if womens day wasn't recognized, all these women would be out marching and protesting for recognition of equality. women are so unreasonable that its pathetic
Why would men want their own day. Real men ignore praise.
Not surprised, women are pampered. They get what they want. Men are disposable in today's society.
I think these type of days shouldn't exist anyways, but it's funny how women are oppressed, but they're celebrated while men aren't.
welcome to the short end of the stick.. hold your wife's purse and keep quiet.. equal rights means not men first in the new world order..
Yup there should be a men's day too. Imagine the discount on Mens products on that day. Damn it will be good for companies too. Anyways all days, be it mother's day, valentines day, women's day has been commercialised.
Isn't that... everyday? Lol
It's not.
Illinois apparently has a Barack Obama day.
there is no men day, there is a bash white male day everyday
im not white though so I get my own day too. sorry adfsd
@Karahiri World toilet day? Yeah I'd have thought that is every day...
@Cosytoasty wow, I completely misread this post if she was talking about toilet day. awkward
karahiri I need your help! do you know any admins? I need to get into contact with one
If it weren't for men and the sacrifices of men, you would not have the basic comforts that make your narcissistic privileged little life that you have.
MEN created the city you live in, the house you live in, the roads, etc.
MEN created the cars, planes, and transport that bring you products.
MEN worked and died in the oil fields and mines to get you the oil based products (makeup, plastics, etc) and metal based products you enjoy without thought.
MEN advanced science and technology that give you advanced medicine and technology.
If you want to know what it would be like without men doing what they have done for you...

So pull your head out of your entitled ass and appreciate that you have the privileged little world you have because of men.
@LogicBomber I was just saying that international toilet day is everyday... thanks, crazy.
Sure.
@karahiri Wow once again, GaG delivers on completely missing the irony ๐
(runninf away before this reply stirs up another shitstorm)
It should be recognised, but the UN are clearly a bunch of bigoted sexists...
Simples...
Nobody needs awareness Day.
Stupidity is to be expected from the UN
I honest don't care nor celebrate those "days" unless j gwt a paid day off lol.
I think most people donโt care about any of these types of days. Iโm sure the everyday person doesnโt care about womenโs day, menโs day, cupcake day, or whatever else days there are.
UN is useless... I don't approve of their weird and shitty ways to do things.
Men aren't really a marginalized group, it makes no sense for it to be recognized.
This
Neither are women in westernised countries.
@bekkesmash In certain respects they are marginalized, but as it stands the UN doesn't represent primarily western countries. United Nations stands for all countries over the world. Currently compared to males, women still have it pretty bad in most places.
In western countries religion plays a primary role in the subjugation and limitation on women, same in 3rd world. Yes, women are still marginalized.
If you put one gender on the pedestal then that is not equality.
I did not understand that either... for a time. How is putting one specific gender on a pedestal going to make women and men equal?
You must take into account how people act. When we are born, we each live in our own specific world, the way we perceive reality, our "illusion". For girls they have, for a time always seen themselves as being locked into the notion they must act appropriately, be a brood mare and treat their husband like a king. That was their entire world. But by disrupting that girls are able to look outside of what they have known and become better more stronger versions of themselves.
For the 5 guy's who downvoted this, they have lived in a reality that makes them aware that women must act and be a certain way. It's just how they see the world, nothing wrong with it except that whether they have good intentions or not they see the need in this situation to counter this movement.
I return to the statement of what i said however, digressing back to the idea of how a majority of women still perceive reality of having to dress and act a certain way. Almost a sort of slave mentality. A study on happiness in slaves back in the early 19th century revealed that second and 3rd generation slaves felt far happier than 1st generation. The 1st generation felt the least happy because they understood what it meant to be truly happy. Women are no different in this regard, they now have access to an entire trove of knowledge, and are only just beginning to understand how fucked into a corner they were by society. This isn't to say that males don't have somewhat similar problems too, such as always having extreme societal standards, but there is far less expectations on them to remain composed, settling down, being married etc.. etc. It did not help either when a majority of males compounded the belief girls are supposed to act a certain way.
That is what i understand so far.
Until people admit misandry is real, more men will continue to go MGTOW and the ranks of the MRA will rise and rightfully so. Radical liberalism tends to shame men and masculinity while putting women and femininity on the pedestal. We don't need feminism anymore, we need egalitarianism.
Not even third world countries need feminism, they need better human rights which can be acquired through egalitarianism otherwise their feminist movements will end up like the third wave feminist movements in first world countries. Look at Japan, they don't have feminism and you never here Japanese women complaining about "misogyny". Yet the feminists always attack Japan for not having a feminist movement.
It's real, misandry exists, but only in small sects of feminism. Most often it's the people who shouldn't be heard speaking the loudest. It's expected, men feel the need to be apart of something in the face of adversity. Every action need's an equal or opposite reaction. The process of a conflict is egalitarian itself, both sides are represented.
But societies views of the individual are still too childish like I said before, people feel comfortable living in their reality and have a hard time coping with perceptions that do not align with their own.
Women have life easier than men in western countries, both socially and legally.
@bekkesmash UN isn't comprised of entirely western countries. Did @ADFSDF1996 in his question specify western countries?
Not saying that it is, but people tend to think women are a marginalized group in western countries too. And I said westernized countries, which even most of Africa is, take it from someone who has lived in 4 different African countries.
@bekkesmash Glad you are telling me how Africa is, always fascinated by the continent. But in most respects your opinion is wrong, western women have had to deal with quite a lot regarding sexual advances, the wage gap and gender society standards. With which who's same standards are placed upon males as well. Just in a different light. We can argue about who has it worse but nothing really get's done. Nothing with a positive outcome anyway.
The wage gap? If they could pay women less for the same job, they would only hire women and save a lot of money. Give me a country and ill tell you when same pay for the same work across genders literally became a legal statute. There is an earnings gap for sectors as a whole because women chose to do less lucrative degrees, it's there own fault, not discrimination.
Sexual advantages? Small price to pay when the thing that causes that is the biggest biological advantage women have (disproportionate sexual attraction) it makes life far easier when you are desired far more than men, shit even "straight" women are more aroused by the female body than the male body (look up dr chivers and dr riegers work).
society standards, men have those too.
@bekkesmash You are not going to change your nor my mind, least of all on an internet chat. It sucks, I know. In any case leave the rest up to you, what you want me to believe in is entirely up to you.
Surely I have changed your mind about the wage gap, I was just stating facts, how can you disagree?
@bekkesmash You did change my mind in the sense that this conversation is pointless. Stating an opinion then calling it fact does not make it right.
It's literally the law that women get paid the same for the same work, give me a country and ill site the legal statute.
@bekkesmash Antarctica.
That's a continent
@bekkesmash It's where im from
which region?
@bekkesmash McMurdo
That's barely a town, what country does it fall under?
@bekkesmash Multiple, it's a research station
Yeah, a glorified prefab, it must be part of a country though, it has to be governed by law.
@bekkesmash There is no law, there is only the wage gap there. Males are forced to make 1/100th of what women make.
No shock what is recognised by men these days. We protected women from dinosaurs.
Idgaf, ydgaf, why should we gaf that this is a holiday dedicated to beer and football?
hmm same could be said about women but you dont mind because it benefits your gehder
gender
@troychapman Nope, it doesn't.. so that made no sense.. Does Halloween benefit death? No, it doesn't.

@LogicBomber I don't remember asking you shit, you shallow, arrogant shit.
And, I'm no where near privileged, you're so full of shit.
ONE: Women birthed men.
TWO: Women have added to society alongside everyone else
THREE: Women live longer than men, so technically you need us more than we need you.
@LogicBomber My age isn't accurate here. Your logic is cancerous, please go see a doctor.
you just proved him right congragtulations you realize your the only one spewing shit i made a point you got angry then verbally malicious just because he felt the same you feel now exept you started it
just because you dont like the opinion*
@troychapman I could care less, buffoon.. Have a shitty day.
UN is garbage. Who cares what they celebrate?
#AbolishUN
International Billionaires Day isn't recognized either. Wanna cry about that too?
Billionaires probably do...
I knew you would make a rude remark.
Do you know that IDGAF about IMD? There are so many days.
... why is there an international men's day?
Because men shouldn't be neglected.
We aren't. There's an international women's day to show positivity and support for the sex that has been historically oppressed. Men have not be historically oppressed just for being men. It's like someone wanting a straight pride parade. There's zero need for one. Just be glad we don't need a men's day
So you are okay with misandry?
If you're bringing sexual assault and rape into this, you are really talking to the wrong person. I'm a victim of sexual abuse. I've gone through looking at support groups and seeing "women only" on the signs (which I am fine with by the way. I understand that as a man my presence can be scary in those situations. There is a need for women only support groups). I know there is more support in place for women and people are more likely to believe them and take it seriously than me when reporting the same thing. I get that. But I've also seen that get better. I've seen a jump in how many people support male victims and are quick to correct others when they say rape only happens to women. I've found support groups and chat sites that are for men only. More and more books are being written for male victims, or at the least are written in a way men and women can both relate to. Is it equal? No, not yet. But there is a genuine effort going into fixing that problem. People see it and ->
recognize that it needs to change. That's more than can be said about several problems women face. So do I see the lack of equality in some situations? Yes. Do I feel because of those things I need an international men's day? No.
I'm aware that there are "women's only" places but there should also be men's only places as well.
I just said I've found "men only" support groups
Maybe groups but almost no shelters.
True
I don't get why need international men's day?
why do we need national womens day
Since MEN have pretty much created everything around you and have made your life the entitled privileged bubble that it is... MEN should be recognized for the achievements MORE than the pat on the back that women constantly get by society for nonsense.
It's easy to accomplish something when men have paved the way and removed all obstacles for you.
@LogicBomber true but the point im making is it isn't fair to celebrate women but not men
Men don't lack education? Take a look at the college gender gap and graduation differences between male and female students. Why do women need anymore encouragement for educating themselves when it's clearly men who are falling behind academically from a lack thereof?
There are more women with higher education degrees than there are men now, so I don't really think female education in western cultures needs to be promoted.
You know @macix670 as one sided and ignorant your opinion is I can't really get angry at you. Feminism is indoctrinating this "only women are victims" mindset for decades in your public education system, media and movies.
You really should watch the "The Red Pill". It's a about a former feminist who takes time research men's rights organizations. It's free if you have Amazon prime.
Of course I highly doubt you will watch it, although it would benefit you. But hey I'm just throwing that out there. #theredpill
@LogicBomber If it weren't for international women's day and celebrating women's achievements, people like you would still complain that women havent' contributed anything and are stupid. Oh wait, but you still do complain. Another reason why we need international women's day, not men's day. You fool, educate yourself before making ignorant statements.
@PlacentaSalad It's called international women's day, not just Western women's day. ALL WOMEN AROUND THE WORLD. Women in third world countries are beaten to death, killed for getting an education. God, can't you people stop and think?
People in countries where women are actually oppressed don't care about international women's day, and celebrating it in western civilization (where feminists actually have the freedoms to do so) doesn't do anything for them either. It's still pointless.
@PlacentaSalad They celebrate achievements of women in ALL countries. It is absolutely needed because men believe women are stupid and didnt' contribute anything.
disagree i sure as hell dont believe that and im a man
shout out to the 1 woman who actually cares enough to give a thumbs down
@macix670 VERY eurocentric. Women die for getting education in some countries? well what about the ''men'' of certain villages that get round up and killed? what about how in the Philippians they celebrate by lining a bunch of baby boys and circumcise them in a public room all together? what about the fact that boys and men are the main victim to war casualties in terms of civilians? No one believes women as a whole are stupid, but a good portion of you sure do fall for that ''women are the only victim'' narrative that is being pushed by a man named goerge sorrows who has capitalized a ton of money off of making fabricated lies and demean men in the process. Take a look in the mirror.
@macix670
It's easy to stand on your high horse and use 3rd world women as a scapegoat when you aren't actually living in a place where you are oppressed.
You feminist keep claiming you want equality... but for you, equality means getting things but not giving those things to men EQUALLY.
HERE in the west...
Men are 97% of combat fatalities.
Men pay 97% of Alimony
Men are 94% of work suicides.
Men are 93% of work fatalities.
Men are 81% of all war deaths.
Men lose custody in 84% of divorces.
80% of all suicides are men.
77% of homicide victims are men.
But women in fucked up middle east countries where everything is wrong, die trying to go to school. SO, therefore, you need an international women's day but fuck men's day?
You can do the school yard name calling, it doesn't make your argument any more valid.
@LogicBomber I'm longing for the day we can move just responding with cold hard facts on GAG and the speak the truth out loud in public. Some guys have tried to do it, but they usually get instantly ostracized or muzzled. Former Google engineer James Damore is perfect example. The guy fought with well thought out, hard facts (and some educated opinions) about the counterproductiveness of "diversity" programs and subsequently got fired from Google. However his stance is not in vain, his termination lead to viral attention. However not too many guys are willing to be martys (including me) or we are worried that it will hurt our chances of getting laid.
@somewheresomeway getting fired for speaking out? wow...
@FreedomByChoice Google him (no pun intended)
@somewheresomeway hahaha
@somewheresomeway That is how feminist work, they don't want the truth or facts. They want adherence to their doctrine. Anyone who disagrees is lynched and they will stand at nothing to destroy the person's life, simply for speaking out against them.
Gregory Alan Elliott told feminist on twitter that they were wrong. He was met with death threats, beratement, and endless attacks. Non-of-which were considered hate speak by twitter. While his account was shut down because disagreeing with feminist is considered hate.
He then got dragged through court for 4 years on "harassment" charges and they almost destroyed his life.
Bullies never want the truth pointed out and they will usually do anything to silence it. But it's becoming harder for them to do so.
@LogicBomber so basically feminists are evil?
@troychapman Not that feminist are evil, I am sure some females join it thinking it's what it claims to be, but it's more like a hate group ideology which indoctrinates young females into false victimhood and pushed a bullshit agenda.
@LogicBomber I've met some "feminists" who are really "egalitarian". I even identify as egalitarian.
The good news is that now many women are seeing the long term negative effects of feminism. It's creating passive pleasing men most women don't want. But we got a ways to go to reverse the damage.
@somewheresomeway Yeah it's like curing cancer.
It's no big deal really. We don't need it.
How many men have even heard of it? I never have.
Who cares what the UN recognizes or thinks.
I don't want or need a day
because they focus to women
Too many stupid minuscule holidays anyways.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
If it weren't for men and the sacrifices of men, you would not have the basic comforts that make your narcissistic privileged little life that you have.
MEN created the city you live in, the house you live in, the roads, etc.
MEN created the cars, planes, and transport that bring you products.
MEN worked and died in the oil fields and mines to get you the oil based products (makeup, plastics, etc) and metal based products you enjoy without thought.
MEN advanced science and technology that give you advanced medicine and technology.
If you want to know what it would be like without men doing what they have done for you...

You would live in a bronzed aged tribe in a straw hut.
So pull your head out of your entitled ass and appreciate that you have the privileged little world you have because of men.
@LogicBomber Well done :) Why do you have such hatred? Simple emoticons made you write all of these?
Bravo, for wrongly assuming what's behind my comment.
In my part of the world men let us be women and we let men be men, but you don't seem to be a man like that :) I have a loving father and brother who I love more than anyone in the world. I know what men feel, can see things from a man's perspective. Who you think women are? Army of your enemies or what? Why do you try to advocate man's rights while you don't even know what I laugh about?
Next time ask someone about their opinion before starting giving a lecture that never been asked from you.
If all the men out there were like you I would become lesbian.
@LogicBomber tsk tsk. 27, and still calling people names, ranting angrily instead of rationally, and using ridiculous terms like "white knight" to do so? Really. Not going to get anywhere until we can all speak like adults, rather than just claiming it by right of years passing. I'd hope to see you able to speak using accurate definitions of the terms you're throwing around for effect.
@HaveQuestions Your shaming tactics don't make anything I said less relevant and you can claim I am ranting and angry (which I am not) and it still doesn't make what I said less valid.
We should be able to speak like adults, but sadly passive aggressive shaming tactics are not the way adults speak. Your constant condensation aside, you don't seem to have any actual points to make, so until you do, I suggest leaving the school yard speak in the school yard.
@LogicBomber no shaming. That's silly. Ironic also, since you are the one calling any and all females on here "narcissistic and entitled." And any men who disagree with you "white knights." I used none of those terms.
Ranting- yes. You're ranting, when you copy and paste the same silly response to everyone, as innacurate as it is.
Condensation? Did you mean condescension? Different things. None here, just an observation of your historical innacuracy.
Who cares?
who cares about womens day

Because your sexism exists regardless of your excuse.
ah another materialistic woman who thinks possession actually increases your worth/money etc.
No, why... are you gonna try and throw a "red pill" or MRA shaming tactics at me?
Yeah, as you can tell, I have dealt with sexist bigots before.
@LogicBomber what are you trying to say
@troychapman It was a back and forth with Megalyssa.
there's an international men's day?
good reason we shouldn't notice them either
Why should it be
International men's day should be recognized because men are humans as well.

@LogicBomber you nailed it right on the head. like another poster said before me, women would be out in the streets protesting if somebody decided not to recognize womens' day yet they laugh at this. women are just ridiculous. theyre so coddled and brain dead
