People you refer to as normies often called me, "weird", "abnormal", "mental". On some reflection, I understood that they weren't regarding themselves as doctors (the really normal people in institution), but as fellow patients in mental asylum chiding me for daring to suggest I might not be as damaged as they are. https://social.076.moe/url/122761
BTW there are women who were convicted of child molestation in the West and now serving ridiculously long sentences. This has done nothing to alleviate the police heavy-handedness on that issue alone. Also women who are convicted at least had access to kids while most men jailed and harassed by cops on the street because a concerned mom said he looked odd don't even have that privilege. https://social.076.moe/url/76286
>>> You say my problem is eating too much? Now you *have* to follow suit. Welcome to the club, enjoy solving the obesity problem.
When you say I'm comparing apples to oranges you probably mean that being fat is a personal choice while being a man isn't. However I'm not talking about the *source* of the problem, but against the attitude of forcing others to deal with any of your problems by making them suffer the exact same thing. This is against NAP.
"I guess you're misunderstanding spectacularly here."
I would say you don't know what your talking about, especially about the West. I will try to offer some insights you may have missed.
1) When parents are divorced, traditionally the father has to pay for child support
Officially it's all about the "best interests of the child". What no one is intent on doing is explaining why money in "child's interest" the kid has no right to spend or even know of.
2) In the west now that women are making money, now they decided that the mother needs to pay for child support
Women were making money in the past, they just resented doing so, and spun tales about abusive husbands refusing to support themselves. Now they have the gall to tell us they were prevented from being the breadwinner. On a technically legal side mothers could of been ordered to pay money to another legal guardian for a very long time.
It's another issue that men with "smarts" had nothing to do with, men always went with the dominant narrative.
3) And from what I understood, they're now abolishing child support all of the sudden.
This is nonsense, child support is taxable income and the state will always want you to pay more taxes. If money trumps gender for the landlords, it definitely does for the government thugs.
"And this is why the smart people turn a man's problem into a woman's problem, and wait until soyciety fixes itself."
This is just as dishonorable as fat people demands like "everyone else should order double because 'muh fat acceptance'." The sentence I'm replying to betrays the lack of a strong moral backbone and is even in conflict with basic ancap principles. See also: https://yujiri.xyz/protagonism/luck.gmi
"A is chased by a bear and B could make the bear chase them instead. They doesn't; they chooses their own life over A's. Few people would claim this is immoral, and those that would (mostly Christians) would find it a minor sin at worst. Then the other version: it's A who has the power, and they choose to make the bear chase B instead. This one is obviously murder. We just can't honestly deny that there's a massive difference. There's no avoiding the conclusion that, even if you don't put it this way, A is less entitled to life *because* they're the one who would naturally die here."
^ That's what plastic traditionalists always say. Men never had much authority in the family unit, and the patrocracy is a laughable concept that feminists came up with to demonize men.
I think there are plenty of landlords willing to make an exception if the dweller is female expat.
Also 38 years is not old. I figured many landlords use "age" as a proxy when they feel off about the potential dweller but can't admit straightly why they refuse.
Good to hear it may be not as bad as some make it out so, although even one person is enough to look into that. Just because everyone is silent on the problem doesn't mean it don't exist. We don't want men to be blind to the risks just because when a man has a problem, it's always a personal problem, but when a female has a problem, it's the society that's fucked up.
I don't feel like wrestling with PushShift and this user got banned off the Reddit, but he dropped some valuable insights on life in Japan as a single male expat. There are probably more stories like that that people loath to share.
"As I get older renting is going to become more and more challenging - even at my current relatively young age I've already run into age discrimination from landlords. I plan to live the rest of my life here and feel that without a home of my own there's a tangible risk I'll be homeless and/or get deported when I'm older." -- https://old.reddit.com/r/JapanFinance/comments/qp9v56/need_some_advice_on_how_to_unscrew_my_future/
In this neck of the woods, people post outright they won't admit anyone but girls for renting or lodging. Even if the lease is on the whole apartment, not just a room. As for Japan, I came across the dude who told me that it was difficult for him because landlords worry he'll die in there with nobody the wiser.
For that to be a divide and conquer scheme, there should be opponents on both side of the fence. As we see, women are unanimously pro-women and men are unanimously pro-women. There are minor disagreements between some fringe groups of radical feminists, but the institutionalized version enjoys bipartisan support.
Men in Japan are discriminated against if they don't have a girlfriend, I heard you say. I know that it may be difficult to rent an apartment there for a single man. Seems like men aren't really winning.
> They want women to be fat, ugly and mean corporate wage slaves.
This is a trad con falsehood you're spreading. Feminists complain about the glass ceiling so that women can boss around slaves of their own, even though women avoid career risk-taking.
> I can see the point of being a feminist in the past
Maybe you also see the point of Nazism in the past as well? I'm not meaning to be rude yet, I'm just complaining that people like you give a pussy-pass to a hate movement.
> it was perfectly normal for families to sell daughters into slavery or prostitution
This is a feminist falsehood.
> I hate men
This seems to be the only thing men generally agree on (normies just hide it better). Misanthropes always hate men more than they hate women.
> feminism was probably a political psyop
Feminism is a grassroots hate movement, because women naturally prefer the company of other women and men soon learn to avoid other men. Thus it is easy for women to organize to push for their own gender interests.
> legitimate problem
This is a typical "Pendulum swung too far" fallacy common in anti-feminist circles.
> Women should have the option to be self-sufficient
You can be self-sufficient if you live by yourself in the woods. No one restricted women from taking that option. Women argued that men have to take up burdens so women can get by doing less. This is not a position a self-sufficient person takes in a dialogue and no one would tolerate from a man. People point at the door when a man demands easier work than was agreed on.
> [Self-sufficiency] is not the primary option
That's why no one who tells you to go live in the woods ever takes that option. Being a second, and even a third class citizen is better than being all by yourself.
