I want commenting on its efficacy. I'm just saying that it happens. Most economic conservatives these days come with a side order of rights oppression: reproductive, gender expression, migrants, etc. Starmer, while being fiscally conservative in that he isn't going to introduce a programme of economic redistribution, is socially liberal in that he's pushing back the former government's "culture war" actions.

There is a sequence. People earn trust, then they get trust. That is the sequence.

Individual boys will be trusted if they deserve it.

Masculinity won't because it has broken trust. We've got a major crisis here, and it won't be solved with downvoting feminist opinions or demanding trust. We have inherited a deeply broken situation, and many of the loudest voices in masculinity are still disasterously counterproductive.

The way forward is to forge a better masculinity that is an ally to the other genders. Maybe earn trust back. We can start by listening to women and hearing their concerns. Downvoting and negating their concerns pushes them in the wrong direction, doesn't it?

Thread closed? Why? Do you not want to defend such a statement?

That depends on what you mean by "treated". Men are not as well trusted not to be violent, and taken less seriously when the victims of sexual crimes. Women are paid less well and get more online abuse. That's just a few examples for each side, obviously we could go on and on. Maybe we all want better treatment.
