[QUOTE="Frankenstein Underworld, post: 445032, member: 35"] Also, "international men's day" isn't just about how much money men make (which is a superficial take on it.) According to the article on Wikipedia, it's a "global awareness day for many issues that men face, including abuse, [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homelessness']homelessness[/URL], [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide']suicide[/URL], and [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Violence_against_men']violence[/URL]." Certain feminist groups used to claim that all men were privileged and oppressive, but when presented with evidence that countered their narrative, they chose to move the goal post instead. Now they openly mock "male tears" while claiming that men have brought any issues they have on themselves. And then they turn around and wonder why these same men don't care about [I][B]their[/B][/I] issues or want to be allies with them. Again, I know all feminists aren't like that, but there are many that are. Misogyny is certainly real, but some people are under the false belief that it's the [I][B]only[/B][/I] form of sexism that exists. Unfortunately, misandry is alive and well too. It would be nice if we lived in a world where everybody supported and helped each other, but human nature being what it is, it's sadly not that way. [/QUOTE]
