Board Thread:What Would You Do?/@comment-35898511-20180926033722/@comment-43782881-20200710044427

I am sorry to reptile king that this is your impression of what you call SJWs. People who are committed to matters of social justice are actually no more glad to see male rape victims than they are of female rape victims. Rape us widely understood as a violation of one's consent by another and doesn't have any bearing on the genders of the involved parties, despite the admittedly larger focus on female rape victims, and the large amount of jokes cracked about male rape victims in popular media.

The issue of power and privilege that you dismiss is simply that in many cases men are given preference, given more opportunities, held to lower standards than women. Thus many men develop a greater sense of importance, while many women develop behaviors that make them look more agreeable and quieter so as to not be a target. This does not mean that men don't have any problems worth discussing, or that women are completely innocent of any wrongdoing. It means that there are many issues specific to women, caused by men.

I have already tried to have this discussion in a more related discussion thread. I am aware I am a minority in this space and may not change anyone's opinion. However, I cannot just let people throw around such basic misunderstandings of women's issues. I speak as a man who is tired of seeing men I know harass women or talk about them behind their backs. I am tired of seeing men express violent hatred for women (places like 4chan or certain reddit threads). I am tired of seeing loud angry men every day of my life, throwing their weight and personality around to make others feel small. I wonder if those men would be a bit more more humble if they weren't born in a world that holds boys to such few standards of behavior.

And I'm kind of just incredulous at how many people round here seem to express scorn for "sjws" and feminists, on a pornographic site full of hundreds of supernaturally sexy women who's only priority is to please men. You're not bad for liking porn or this site in particular. But come on, monster girls have almost no standards, and exist solely for male pleasure. It is a fantasy which feeds the exact thing that I've talked about above, of women being made to cater to men who are give free reign of anyone and anything.

I love most of the ideas in the mge, the sexy monsters and all their quirks, and folks here have some really good writing. But I can't just ignore these simpified and misunderstood assessments of real world issues which are exemplified so clearly right here on this site.
