This thread sucks.

I don't hate women, because there's no legitimate reason to hate an entire gender. Also, ngl, hating particular women for being awful people is fine, but when you get all misogynistic about how you go about it, you kind of start to look like the one in the wrong.

I agree with this sentiment and would like to add, I generally think your interactions with women will become more positive for you if you don't view the majority of your interactions with one though the lens of getting her to have sex with you.

>Rape is rape. Statutory rape is retarded and not a real thing.

Rape is rape, sure. Statutory rape is a thing because of the power dynamic in play. If we're talking middle teenagers who actually have a concept of sex and sexuality and could in theory consent to having sex (and not like actual children who may have a dubious concept of what sex even is) there's still the fact that they might not have the option to say no due to being dependent on the person making the request, or the person doing it may be an otherwise powerful or trusted member of the community and coming out that they were coerced into sex could get them punished and/or ostracized and/or forced to keep silent to prevent causing a stir.

They're more vulnerable so it makes sense to just flat out criminalize that kind of stuff in order to give them a fighting chance.

It's kind of like how there's a taboo against student teacher relationships regardless of age. One party holds power over the other that can be used to coerce them if they're unwilling.

>Well, I am sick unto death of the feminist, misandrist Hell that women have made out of our lives. I try hard to be an enlightened, tolerant guy, but when you have an endless horde of shrieking harpies squealing "Stop oppressing me!" every time you draw a breath, it becomes impossible.

I can agree that people like that are frustrating but it's really not a majority, and most of those people do have a reasonable side that can be appealed to (just not throught online interactions on twitter/tumblr). Lashing back just feeds into a sense of justification. Something I find that helps it to give yourself some emotional distance from it. When they complain about men they're not attacking you personally, they're usually just venting anger similar to how you are or lashing out from frustration. Not interacting and getting away from places, especially websites, that aggravates you goes a long way towards peace of mind.
