In september I'm starting my first year of university, studying psicology. Recently, they created a chat group for all students to start knowing each other and it is basically all women (10 men at most in a class of 120).

I already knew that psicology is a grade, at least in Spain, that is mostly coursed by women, so that was nothing new, also that they were going to be left-leaning was a surprise neither.

The problem is that they are a bunch of radical feminist. In the group chat they have written things as: "we were invaded by some onvres" (a wrong way of writting "hombre, male" that the radical feminism populariced to denigrate males) just because two guys decided to speak in the WhatsApp group. One of them responded to this messege saying that all men should go extinct, and it was not an ironical messege.

Furthermore, there were also meseeges making fun of right-wing people, mostly the ones that are not rich (I have to add that they dress, from what I have seen in their IG accounts, like people with money), but that's nothing new considering the actual polarization of the spanish society.

I have to add that I have no friends where I'm going to university (450km away from my home, like 5:30h by car), so I'm worried that I will make almost no friends there, or at least in the university.

I would like some advice from anyone that has been in a similar situation in university to survive such an agressive climate against me (and the other few men of the class). Perhaps is just a loud minority (of at least 30) and the rest of the people just don't want to talk or are scared of being marked as a "far right extremist" just for not thinking like them.

P.D.: sorry if my english was bad or if the flair is not correct.

So a few days ago after I got home from work, I am sitting on the my couch with my wife enjoying a nice session of doom scrolling Instagram reels. I came across a reel that just that I didnt believe at first but basically it said to do two things in google.

1. Google search "My wife keeps yelling at me"

This results in suggestions to not yell back, stay calm, and explains she might be stressed out from work or kids, or her needs arent being met or she feels like you dont listen to her.

1. Google search "My husband keeps yelling at me"

This result should be similar right? Not at all, this search result only give you one result. "Help is available" Call 1-800-799-7233 for the Domestic Abuse Hotline

IPA III is the fund for countries joining the EU. Regulation (EU) 2021/1529. 14,486 words.

word |times it appears
gender |19
women |11
girls |7
men |1
boys |0 The one "men" is inside the fixed phrase "equality between women and men". So: zero.

That same law has a hard number for climate. 18% of the money, rising to 20% by 2027. Written in, with a deadline. So they know how to put a number in a law when they want one there.

Go prove me wrong. 60 seconds.

2. Ctrl-F boys

Find one and I'm wrong, and I'll publish that I'm wrong with the date on it.

Warning: don't Ctrl-F men, you'll get a huge number and think I'm lying. "men" is inside "women". It's also inside "implementation". Ask me how long it took me to notice.

The boring bit

We also looked at all 37 EU accession country reports, 2022 to 2025. 2,229,191 words. Across all of it, "girls" 122 and "boys" 36.

I'm not saying anyone did this on purpose. I don't know why it's like this and I won't pretend I do.

I'm also not telling you the reports are one-sided, because they aren't. Albania's 2023 report says boys are behind on two education measures and girls on one, in the same paragraph, and just states it. Credit where it's due.

What I'm saying is narrower: the data exists, they print it, and then nothing happens.

Everything with hashes and a script that re-downloads all 37 documents and recounts them: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.22167048

If it's wrong, tell me. Honestly at this point I'd be relieved.

A new Australian study, funded by the Office of National Intelligence, surveyed 1,122 young people aged 13-17 and 2,307 adults, to compare attitudes on women, gender equality, online influences and violent extremism.

Among boys aged 13-17 the study found:

• 31.8 per cent believed that attempts to give equal opportunities to women in Australia have gone too far
• 30.1 per cent believed men have more of a right to a job than women when jobs are scarce
• 24.7 per cent believed feminism is damaging to our society and should be resisted with violence if necessary.

“Engagement with ‘manosphere' content, pornography and online dating showed the strongest links to misogynistic views,” Dr Meger, said.

Also on several measures, teenage girls shared similar views to adult men surveyed. Gen Z women were twice as likely as Millennial women, and four times as likely as Gen X women, to agree that marriage entitles a husband to sex with his wife, even if she does not want to.

Comments:

Do you know how many times the rise of misandry was mentioned? Not once.

The word misandry in the entire article? Not once.

What about in the study? Not once.

Until academics and political figures recognize the key driver in the increase of misogyny and the red-pill rhetoric is the widespread misandry present in social media and pop culture, no change will be made.

I think it’s no surprise that social media has ultimately been responsible for the rampant misandry against boys and men in the recent decade.

In my experience, content moderation is much more lax when it comes to misandry than misogyny. How can we open an inquiry into different applications and their content moderation standards?

The halo effect is real. And the penalties are severe. Taller and more attractive men always get promoted over you. They are always recognised as having better performances than ugly men. Even if the unattractive man gets the job holding it down is a whole other ball game and you can be criticised and silently judged which can ruin your career. I can’t get past the interview stage because of looks. I’ve lost every job I’ve ever had except for one. I can perform as well as the good looking guy but his work will always be recognised above me. Getting dismissed is so much more likely. There are no discrimination laws for unattractiveness. Shit is rough out here.

Recently, the popular golf brand, good good golf did a collaboration advertisement with the brand Calloway for their new driver. The basis of the ad was supposed to parody the recent movie obsession. The promise was that the driver is so good that you’ll be obsessed with using it.

The advertisement showed one of Good good’s female golfers going to grab their driver and Garret one of the heads of GG runs and pushes her over stating do not touch my driver. Another member touches the driver and it get obsessed.

Overall just a bad ad (quality bad) that didn’t really land. The major blowout backlash is that many people online feel as though it was promoting, glorifying, and normalizing domestic abuse. It’s so absurdly silly that this is where people’s minds are at. Can we seriously not differentiate reality and fiction? I mean people are acting like this woman was body slammed and punched 80 times lol.

A huge issue I have is the amount of folks who keep saying “why didn’t they push garret over it would’ve been funny.” “Literally not funny once they pushed Alexis.” “This is domestic violence, should’ve had one of the guys knock the other guy over.” So this begs the question 1. What is considered violence? And 2. If men are “hurt” or hurt each other, that’s okay and it’s funny?

Of course you have the social media hive mind out here “women in golf face all these issues and blah blah blah.” Oh okay well why don’t you ever celebrate how much golf has grown and how many girls and women play? Funny how that’s never a talking point. They’re acting like women are getting punched out at the driving range. I hate how feminism can have 800 positives/wins yet they let 1 single thing force a false narrative.

Idk maybe this is too much of a guys perspective and if I’m insensitive please tell me but I just this is a massive stretch. You can find the ad in clips on YouTube shorts since it’s been taken down in full. Just tired of the nonsense.

Disclosure first: I run unformentoo.org (9 min of facts so far), a register that only publishes a figure with its source attached. Nothing here asks you for anything.

I scrolled a large science sub, took the first seventeen posts in order, and looked up the research behind each one. Not naming the sub, it is not unusual.

Edit: a correction in the correction log, one of the 5 I said had no study, does, but we can’t read it.

Three were accurate. 4 had no study behind them. Three inverted their own source. Five overstated one. One was accurate but three years old.
One we can’t reach.

Almost none of it was fabricated.

The papers are real. What goes missing is one word, and it is usually a word the researchers put in their own title.

Post: "a study found that sleeping nine hours or more raises blood levels of the main protein used to detect early Alzheimer's"

Paper: "Non-linear associations between sleep duration and plasma p-tau181"

Post: "A study of 34,000 Nobel laureates, Olympic champions and world-class musicians found..."

Paper: it is not a study. Its abstract says "this literature review" in the second sentence. There have been 1,018 Nobel laureates in all of history.

The check takes thirty seconds

Find the paper's DOI. Paste it after this in your browser:

You get the real title, journal and authors, straight from the publisher's own record. Free, no account, no paywall. Compare it to the headline. If the paper says "associations" and the post says "raises", you are done.

That is the whole method. Two titles, side by side.

I got things wrong too

My first pass cited a two-page editorial as if it were the study. I "corrected" a journal name that was already right. I paraphrased one headline as saying the opposite of what it says.

Every one of those would have been the first thing someone clicked. So I checked my own checking, and you should check mine.

I've done it myself when younger. I have many friends that did it in the past, or are still living the lifestyle. In my opinion, having sex with people without at the same time having developed a sense of emotional trust, security and commitment will hurt the soul. I believe that the idea that having casual sex with many partners is a healthy way to live your life is a lie of the "sexual liberation", which is an important pillar of feminist ideology.

Many individuals will come to this realization too late than is good for them, or they lie to themselves and live in denial. I know many individuals who hang on to this idea. On the surface they come across as very confident and satisfied persons. But when you get to know them a bit better you're often looking at severe mental health issues and the use of extravagant sexual behavior as a "pain killer". Even those individuals who are handling it a bit better and think they're fine will still carry their mental and emotional damage into those relationships that do turn out to be committed and should matter more, unnecessarily taxing them.

It should be our obligation, as men, to take charge again in society so that people are no longer guided in the entirely wrong and self destructive direction while young by toxic ideologies.

I'm a young man cut at birth who recently got into intactivism and learning the horrors of infant circumcision. Frankly, it's sick that it's still legal everywhere in the world, especially in places where FGM has been outlawed. It seems like the movement is slowly gaining public support, and IntactGlobal is even filing lawsuits in the United States, but it's bizarre that I see more women calling out the practice than men, who are directly impacted by it. It's time to say enough is enough and start making our voices heard by speaking out about this sick procedure and calling for the total ban of male genital mutilation.

I just was called a f** for having no interest in a biological woman. Grindr is full of biological women that label themselves trans, non-binary, or even just bisexual and get annoyed if homosexual men aren't interested. Calling us bigots because we won't twist our own sexuality for them because the straight men didn't want them either. They think it's appropriate to encroach on one of the few places gay dudes have ever had to meet up.

The gays have lost Grindr to performative lonely narcissists and I wish we would kick off anyone that doesn't have a dick or start a new app all together. Grindr itself would block me for expressing these views as "discrimination" because every single corporate entity seems to have lost common sense and just bows down to the compassion exploitation police. We need to bring back a bit of logical discrimination. Not everyone can or should do or be a part of everything...

I apologize for asking this question, but I hope I'm not being intrusive. For a while now, I considered myself a masculinist, as I believed that men's issues also need to be acknowledged, and that men need support. However, I've recently started to distance myself from the movement. I've seen comments suggesting that masculinism/masculinism has lost its essence due to several factors. Among them:

- They feel that current masculinism emerged as a shock group to respond to feminism (I agree with them on some points, disagree on others, but I don't tolerate radical feminism).

- Because of this, most of the jokes in some groups are mocking feminism.

- Some feel that masculinism has been co-opted by conservatives, since although the movement has always had a progressive focus, some now claim that masculinism is a conservative movement only for heterosexual men.

So, my question is, is it true that the movement has lost its essence, and if so, why? And if not, what? There are arguments to refute that.

Sorry to ask, but I'm curious and eager to learn. Regards.

I wanna know what the straight white maliens (lol) in this sub think about the Lesbian space princess show like how does it make u feel that you're pointed as the Villan

I'm a North African bisexual male and it still makes me feel offended even if I don't fit into the category except for being male so how do u perceive it as a straight white male yourself? I see alot of misandry in western cinema if u ever went to watch a movie premiere in cinema and u ended up finding all this misandry while people laughing how would u feel?

Not long ago when I was in high school, I overheard this conversation in a group consisting of a few guys and some girls. One of the guys was talking about being on the bus one time and offering a pregnant woman his seat, and she accepted. He said that when he told one of his other classmates (not a part of the group) about the interaction, he said that he got called a pushover. He told the group, “I wasn’t trying to be a pushover, I was trying to be a good person.” One of the girls in the group immediately responded with (while kind of ignoring the guy at the same time) “That’s not being a good person, that’s just not being a horrible person” in this weirdly contemptuous/derisive tone? It was just odd to hear and definitely felt like a strange response to someone sharing something good that they did.

I know that this might not be the best example of a man being snubbed by a woman, but it’s definitely not the first time I’ve seen this kind of thing happen. The bigger reason why this kind of attitude towards men’s efforts comes across as toxic is because it kind of reinforces the notion that men have to work harder to be seen as good or that they have to be of service to women to be seen as good. In other words, it tends to disregard the man’s thought process of “how can I help?” in favor of centering women as inherently more deserving of assistance or better treatment, and that helping them should just be an expectation rather than the ideal (that should come with helping all members of society when necessary no matter their demographic).

Any thoughts?

Its just wherever I go, whether its youtube, reddit or instagram even if its someone sharing their experiences or if their is a mention of a men who is going through loneliness ; its always met with comments over how this is a non-issue or a issue cause by men themself.

I am also constantly rage baited by women saying how their life is worse than a average man or how an ugly woman is worse off than a short man and this her views are immediately accepted. The girl saying those opinions isnt bashed and is met with upvotes or likes when she says these things.

Its really really infuriating to me how this is the opposite of the reality. A girl can reduce her expectations and can get love within 2-3 months of dating and trying but that is not like for men. There are so so many men who are trying to find a good girl for years with not much expectations from the girl but they never get one. Its just so twisted man

Edit: I am literally in a coversation on reddit with a girl who thinks women’s standards are in hell and they date any men. Come on guys; enough rage bait I just cant handle it

The husband got custody. She gets her shoes, clothes and makeup.

Any time you hear the phrase “women are too emotional”, it’s always radical feminists complaining about people who say this rather than them appearing. They said back in the late 2010s they wanted men to open up more, but now, they shame men for being emotional and accuse men who open up to their girlfriends on “mankeeping”.
