Male incels have been plentifully depicted on screen, while few film-makers have explored the varied controversies of toxic female radicalisation and the ‘womanosphere’. But a handful of movies have been treading a brave path

    Damn, that’s a lot of condescension wrapped up in misogyny. Maybe stop listening to incel podcasts? Anyways.

    I’m just going to address the gender gap issues, because where as your take is anecdotal, we go by actual investigation into the matter - that being unions. Unions consistently find from new members that women get paid less for the same job. They can even be more qualified. They publish these statistics fairly frequently - at least my local unions do, and we can compare them to other unions. You can call that “fake statistics” if you want, but fuck if I trust some belligerent rando on Lemmy more than people actually working for the average workers rights.

    Also, i am against circumcizing of children generally - because that’s a decision they should make later in life - and I’m not trying to downplay male circumsission, but holy fuck: do you know how they circumcize girls? Do you know what damage that is comparatively speaking? Men can take circumcission for medical purposes, like having too much foreskin, but there is NO medical reason for what they do to girls. You not knowing that speaks volumes to your ignorance.

    Seriously, I skipped the rest because my eyes were rolling so hard at how confidentially incorrect you are. Uninstall the app, go into the mountains, have a cry and deal with your issues - because this ain’t helping you. In fact, it’s only making things worse for you. I was trying to help you find some middle ground, but you wear your bias on your sleeves - and it reads through what you write.

      So you are saying that millions of employers are rank morons and absolute idiots for hiring any man, instead of employing 100% women?

      Because that’s the biggest counter-argument.

      Capitalism is all about maximizing profits. If an employer could save 22¢ on every dollar of payroll by hiring only women - and payroll is frequently the very largest expense of a business - they would have to be among the lowest-IQ functional adults in existence by hiring ANY man instead of all women.

      Companies go through extraordinary lengths to shave 0.01% off of their expenses, and yet you expect anyone with more than two functional neurons to believe they’ll leave a 22% gap in payroll just lying around, unexploited? That employers would willingly pay 22% more for the exact same work simply because it’s being done by a dude??

      Giggity.

      I would absolutely love if that gender pay gap actually existed, because that means I could instantly and immediately operate almost any business 22% cheaper than any other company out there, conferring an overwhelming financial competitive advantage in my favour. I could become a multi-billionaire within a few short years with that kind of operational leverage.

      Furthermore, I wonder why this isn’t taught in every single BBA degree out there. Because that would be one hell of a buff to any business plan. And yet, labour market participation overall tends to be broadly equal between the genders. Gee, I wonder why?

      Finally: at least I posted links to evidence. Yours are just wild claims with no supporting evidence.

      Cool: a mix of sour grapes and an ad hominem in an attempt to socially shame me into silence. Sorry, but I have an exceedingly low tolerance for anti-reality ideology of any kind, much less that which is found percolating through female supremacism. You can take your gender bigotry and shove it where the sun doesn’t shine.
