Very basic, obvious examples of male privilege please?

How does that back up what you claim? It's ludicrous to say that.

"I was addressing the ridiculous claim that it is mens fault that they die whilst doing dangerous jobs."

"That hasn't been done. Screenshot please."

"95% of all work place deaths are male because many of said males DON’T FOLLOW THE SAFETY PROCEDURES!!! "

""In North America, where these stats often come from, construction workers use drugs and alcohol at an alarming rate. I worked in a homeless shelter, used as cheap accommodation for migrant construction workers, who would get good and fucking high on meth all night then go to work. ""

OK

I'm right here calling you out on your nonsense

In no way does that you say what you said it says. Are you actually kidding?

@haxxor try reading the posts I quoted again, you are misrepresenting their argument

Where did @pratchet go??????

@fmsfms It is the fault of the class of men that some men die doing dangerous jobs. This is not the same as blaming the individual men who die.

The men in our majority-male Parliament fail to pass laws to stop the men who make up the majority of directors and senior management from putting the men they employ at risk.

Working class men suffer socio-economic class oppression from others who are more privileged and mainly men. This is distinct from the sex class oppression that women suffer from men.

"Implying that all men are blyth [sic] about safety precautions and using machinary [sic] whilst on drugs

I literally saw them. With my girly eyes.

Another one:

"In North America, where these stats often come from, construction workers use drugs and alcohol at an alarming rate. I worked in a homeless shelter, used as cheap accommodation for migrant construction workers, who would get good and fucking high on meth all night then go to work. "

Christ lol, at least make an effort to keep up with the thread before you make stupid claims about what has and hasn't been posted. It's literally at the top of the page

"1)95% of all work place deaths are male because many of said males DON’T FOLLOW THE SAFETY PROCEDURES!!! And why? Because male privileges mean that they are used to doing as they damn well please and others cannot tell them what to do. Even when it is “Don’t smoke near the gas leaks”, “wear a hard hat”, “use the safety equipment”, “Don’t drink alcohol before operating this machine”."

When was the last time a man was made to feel uncomfortable because he couldn’t be arsed/didn’t want to shave his legs? (Bodies being socially acceptable as long as they’re clean vs bodies needing to be shaved/made up in order to be seen as ‘normal’)

Any men get asked why they’re not planning to have kids, as if this is an odd choice?

Also this: “a man and his son were injured in a major car accident. The man was pronounced dead on arrival to the hospital and the son was rushed to theatre. The surgeon on duty looked at him and said “I can’t do this one, that’s my son”. Explain”

The answer of course is that the surgeon’s his mother, but most people asked can’t get it. That. That we automatically assume a woman couldn’t be in that role.

That hasn't been done. Screenshot please.

@Pratchet what concerns?

I was addressing the ridiculous claim that it is mens fault that they die whilst doing dangerous jobs.

If you can't see the inherent sexism/misandry in that post, or you do and ignore it then clearly you are no egalitarian

Fms: this is a feminist forum. Your concerns might be better addressed on a forum for males?

Lol at this page,, someone rightly points out that men are more likely to do dangerous jobs and people argue it's their own fault for ignoring HSE and doing drugs in their workplace, what?

Yeah, what about all the semi slaves building football stadiums in Qatar and Skyscrapers in the UAE?

Who the fuck requests "consent" BEFORE you date them?!

New tactic- - seems like he needs to watch it!!

4% of all venture capital goes to women-led startups although they perform better than male-led ones. Women have to take a token man along to any discussions and presentations as the men believe the words coming from his mouth, not hers. I do the same - I have a friendly male geek who's doing some work on my tech startup who's an introvert and doesn't like people. But we have an agreement that he will accompany me sometimes so that the men (who prevail in tech startup land) will have someone to make them feel comfortable and to "give the venture credibility" in their eyes. So fucking tiresome.

@TheLesserOfTwoWeevils are you me?!

I love a rare steak (sometimes even a blue steak!) but persuading people to take this order can be difficult. Love pints too.

Inevitably when our order arrives the steak and pint are reverentially placed before DH while his weedy salad gets slung in my direction.

It’s The World Cup, not the Men’s World Cup.

Not being able to just sit quietly in public without a man thinking you are there for him to talk to. Literally happened to me last night.

Women not being equal work opportunities because she 'might' have children in the future

And the last one.

I found this on Pinterest a few years ago...

Being in a world where people are promoted by others of their own because of what sex they are, and complaining that if the other sex wants to do something about that, it would no longer be a 'meritocracy'

Walking down the street and not having anyone rate your looks just because you’re female.
