What kind of attribution do I need?

Just the ones who conform to my incredibly contemptuous description of them (a majority of white women apparently).

That one, what the fuck?

Can’t you just infer that?

NO. No we can't just 'infer' this.

Just the ones who conform to my incredibly contemptuous description of them (a majority of white women apparently).

Going to need an attribution there, champ.

Jesus Fucking Christ, do we literally have to have women say things like:

"Young men -- not all, just some, well in some areas most, but a lot of young men -- expect..."

This tiptoeing bullshit to not anger some fragile men is insane. I lived as a straight man for over 40 years and this new idea that men are somehow put upon whenever a woman brings up being objectified, or has an issues with interactions with /takes a breath some, but not all, just a large amount, enough to be traumatizing, particularly as it's systemic to the patriarchy, men.

This is ridiculous semantic bullshit in response to women feeling like objects and pushing back.

We're better than this, and I'm tired of watching us act absolutely horrible whenever women point out systemic, extremely frequent issues they have with men, and have to inch around it so as to not break our fragile egos.

What is a standard by your definition?

Human beings don't come in 'standards.' 105 men are born for every 100 women, does that mean women aren't 'standard' or 'normal'? You're using an appeal to definition, still. That isn't how we talk about people. There are more common things, but there is no 'normal,' 'standard,' etc. We have imposed standards, through a patriarchal system, which I feel Ursula K. Le Guin can explain far better than I.

So when I was born, there actually were only men. People were men. They all had one pronoun, his pronoun; so that’s who I am. I am the generic he, as in, “If anybody needs an abortion he will have to go to another state,” or “A writer knows which side his bread is buttered on.” That’s me, the writer, him. I am a man.

No, you seem to still not get the point...

I honestly have no idea what your points are. I still have no idea what:

"I say its a interesting change when put into the context of the Internet “LGBT” people being toxic and don’t listen to anyone not LGBT many do identify as bisexual wich in return makes actually Bisexual people looked down upon by LGBT people"

That means. I get there's a newspaper article about what happened to that poor woman, and I don't doubt it happened, it's not as systemic as implied. Seriously, please slow down, and explain this:

the Internet “LGBT” people being toxic and don’t listen to anyone not LGBT

What does this mean? Listen to straight people about what?

Most Gen Z LGBT are bisexual

So being bisexual is 'normal' then, is it? Does that make you abnormal?

I say its a interesting change when put into the context of the Internet “LGBT” people being toxic and don’t listen to anyone not LGBT many do identify as bisexual wich in return makes actually Bisexual people looked down upon by LGBT people

I'm bi and have never experienced that, nor has anyone bi that I know, but I also have to ask... do you know what the 'B' in 'LGBT' stands for?

into the context of the Internet “LGBT” people being toxic and don’t listen to anyone not LGBT

The invented context of what? How do 'LGBT people not listen to anyone not LGBT'? For what? What the hell are you talking about? Is this a 'Gay Agenda' thing?

So just so we're clear, in your chart here, every single age group, from Gen-Z to Traditionalists, has increased every year.

Huh, it's almost like... these are numbers of openly LGBT people... and the more they are accepted, the more come out. And given that 1/5th of Gen-Z are already identifying that way, what will the number by in 2030?

You are using an appeal to definition and look absolutely childish.

I'm non-binary, and even my parents were shit about it when I came out. If you're ever feeling dysphoric because of, oh I dunno let's create a scenario: Some moron online tries to use right-wing junk-science make you feel lesser or abnormal because they feel powerless and all they can think to do is punch down like the cowards they are....

Then listen to this song, and know that I'm here, listening to it too, right beside you. Don't let these bigots get to you, because that's how they win, they make you doubt yourself. You know who you are, they know shit and they aren't fucking psychics.

Smash the patriarchy, punch a Nazi, and surround yourself with love.

I may be a trans girl but as far as most people are concerned I'm a normal girl

Girl what the fuck. You are a girl, there's no "concern" to it.

EDIT: To whomever downvoted me, one day they'll come for someone you do care about, and you'll remember this moment in shame and self-loathing.

I wasn't (as) worried until Trump won. Now we're going to have Trump sycophants running our federal government.

Here is a 'great' report on Canadian preferences for the States. It highlights fun facts like:

Q: An American Presidential Election will be held in November. Which candidate would you most like to see win?

Majorities of both men and women in Canada prefer Kamala Harris over Donald Trump. However, the preference for Harris is somewhat stronger among women (68%) than among men (51%). While only a minority of men prefer Trump, they are 12 percentage points more likely to do so than are women (27%, compared to 15%). Since 2020, Trump’s appeal has increased by seven percentage points among men (from 20% to 27%) and by five points among women (from 10% to 15%).

And then we get to this:

FIGURE 5 U.S. presidential election: preferred candidate, by federal vote intention (2024)

And if you were curious if it was just a Con thing, as usual no, it's men again:

I'm extremely worried for my queer and female friends and loved ones. My queer child is already getting more and more aggressive threats from both people they know and don't know. Two weeks ago it was threatening to attack them after school. Last week was a bottle thrown at them with a 'vote Trump, fag!' shout.

I won't stand by that, so I'm going to dress and act as out as I ever have, so they come for me instead. Come at me, Cons, I'm not afraid.

Mythbusters has an episode where they swim in non-newtonian fluid

I wish you and your family the best. It's a scary time. Love from Canada.

I know more light skin racists than dark skinned ones, so I cancel you out and then some.

That's how this, works, right?

Tell that to your queer friends and family, or I dunno, women in your life?

Sucks to sucks peasants, dont trust dnc next time

So the lesson wasn't 'don't trust the fascists'? Interesting.

That said, when men were losing their jobs hey got told “learn to code” by callous and shitty journalists and women’s rights activists.

Where on earth has this happened?

The solution is so simple that you have to be abandoning it on purpose: promise men educations and to help them get employed, and you’ll get all the support you need.

So tell the men in charge to do that. We don't live in a matriarchy, women fight the exact same fights you mentioned. You think women don't get laid off just like men do? I've been in games for almost 20 years and I can tell you it's not any better for the women in it.

There are so many issues with a Con government--like not even admitting climate change exists, that's not great--and you mentioned many others.

I'm honestly tired of women bailing us out in these elections though, so I cannot imagine what it's like for them to have to keep doing it.

But with Trudeau refusing to step down I have no choice but to vote conservative.

NDP, Green?

I’m willing to let Skippy axe the carbon tax and hopefully make living in this country affordable again. Ontario generally elects a provincial party that is in opposition, provincial liberals will get in and reintroduce cap & trade which will save us when the next liberal government is elected and tries to save the world again.

When we're voting on abortion again, I hope the women in your life have a chat with you about how your vote effected them.

Up here in Canada as well. Almost exactly half of men, across all age groups, say they play to vote for the Cons. Last I saw it was 20% of women voting Con. I am incredibly embarrassed at my fellow men.
