Okay pal, I’ll indulge you. Here’s a thread about your questions and why my blog isn’t about women having to do something differently to stop the oppression of men.

Reason 1 - men are not globally oppressed

Reason 2 - women as a collective are not in power in the world

So yes, of course women can commit acts of violence, abuse, murder, child abuse, fraud - every single crime a man can commit (except rape in British law because that requires a penis)

So yes, we condemn the same acts if a woman commits them.

However, 97% of all violent crime is committed by men versus 3% committed by women.

1 in 3 women will be raped in the life span by a man versus 1 in 20 men

1 in 4 girls will be sexually abused or raped in their childhood versus 1 in 20 boys

ALL victims of FGM are female

Globally, women and girls are the majority of humans trafficked into slavery for sex.

Women and girls are still oppressed, controlled and abused all over the world

Women and girls are still having to fight for basic human rights in some countries in the world

Men cannot and will never be able to demonstrate that as a class of people, women have oppressed them, sold them, killed them, raped them, killed baby boys at birth because they are the wrong sex. Women are literally the least likely group to commit terror offences & mass murder.

Women are SO unlikely to make false rape and violence accusations. There’s no data whatsoever to back up this myth. Second, the actual false report rate of rape and violence is extremely low (<2%) and yet the false reporting rates of other crimes are HUGE especially burglary

Parental alienation absolutely does happen. However, if you have an issue with the family court systems don’t blame women. Men created that system. Men built those courts. Men created that legislation. You think women were influencing that back then? Nope.

Women do and can commit domestic violence. No one questions that. We work with men who have been abused by GFs and wives.

But do NOT use this as a way of deflecting from global male violence. Do NOT use the real abuse of men and boys for point scoring on the internet.

Finally, cos I have shit to do:

No one EVER asks me this stuff about the work I do with men. No one EVER asks me ‘What about women? What are you doing for them?’

Last week I won £87k for men project and NO ONE questioned me. No one criticised me. No one asked about women.

This whataboutery bullshit ONLY comes up when I talk about my work with women.

When I talk about working with women people are outraged that I’m not talking about men. When I talk about working with men, I’m held up as a fucking hero.

I’m so done with that shit.
