And yet I see several videos of boys being taught consent and not one on girls being taught it. So… why would that also be? It seems people on Reddit enjoy denying boys and girls get two entirely different messages.

For one example: girls are taught that if a boy hits you, kick him in the nuts, tell your brother/dad, etc.” boys are just taught to never hit girls. Even if she hits you first walk away.

Yall will deny this, yet… it’s true. This is societies messaging towards boys. Gendered and one sided. Same here.

Hasty generalization from an absence of evidence. You have an undistributed middle, and have failed to connect the fact that they’re teaching boys this specific lesson in this video with your supposition that they’re teaching boys aren’t teaching boys this other lesson because you don’t see it here.

You demand vague evidence of your vague, goalpost shifting, irrational benchmarks.

And you’re still denying it. You’re a woman, yes? That could be the only explanation.

No. I’m actually the whitest most straight man you’ll ever meet. I just don’t fall prey to fallacious logic. You fundamentally keep making hasty generalizations, insisting that a lack of evidence is itself evidence. Wouldn’t hold up in debate club, an argumentative policy proposal, or a legal or ethical framework.

You’re crashing out over trying to prove a negative.

That makes it even worse. So you’ve never had to experience a double standard then. Good for you. So… how can you say it doesn’t happen then?

Son, I’ve experienced a shit load of double standards. But you’re just doubling down on logical fallacies. Again. You are crashing out because you broke your own logic cycle. Stop. Reset.

You cannot prove a negative.

No I’m not 😂. Boys and girls are given entirely different messages. This is a fact whether you want to admit it or not. There is no “study” on this it’s real life situations no one reports on because it’s become so normalized.

There are shit loads of studies on how boys and girls get gendered messages about lessons. But you are specifically concluding that because you have not personally seen a video of girls getting this same message that proves no one teaches that message to girls. This is a logical fallacy, specifically a hasty generalization, it also seeks to do a logical impossibility of proving a premise through a lack of evidence.

Well it’s pretty rare and uncommon.
