They think its because judges go easier on women, meanwhile minority men go to jail longer than white men do for the same crime.

10 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

You mean to say that this sentence would be longer if a male said it rather than a female ? So iI believed that, females typed longer 1/2

10 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 2

2/2 longer Sentences, And that too it was too long to read . pun intended.

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

If you are black you also get longer sentences. And if you are a black male, who smokes weed in a school zone, with your penis out! Done!

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Correction OP, more males believe females are not as capable of the same things as them. Males judges sentenced the females to lighter terms

Argument goes that it's still patriarchy: it's manly as a powerful man (judge) to hurt other men (convicted). That's the feminist claim.

Just because you don't read and hear about it doesn't mean it isn't happening. The media can be very selective with what they cover.

10 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Just like the wage gap stuff or African Americans in jail, such a broad statement means very little since it is not including other details.

That's because men are better at it.

If this was an issue you cared about, you'd be out there protesting...not trying to bring down someone else's protest ????

Also, as a man I'm not complaining since it's as hard to avoid doing crimes for both men and women

Sometimes not even then, depending on what they're citing

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Yes. Yes, you do see people protesting. Because there still are feminists out there fighting for real gender equality.

10 years ago | Likes 26 Dislikes 3

Well that's not true, because feminists do not want equality. Feminism is all about oppressing men.

I think you're right what it is supposed to be.

Feminism hasn't been ruined just because assholes on one side are only paying attention to assholes on the other. So . . . you're wrong.

It's always been a slimy word in the mouths of its opponents. Lately, the internet has afforded them some example assholes to hate on.

Yep. As an feminist myself I believe that any woman who commits the same kind of crimes that a man does should get the same sentence. (1/2)

10 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 1

Murder, rape, etc... you name it, a woman should do the same hard time as any man does if she committed those crimes. 92/2

the problem is most "feminist" organizations want longer sentences for male and an end to the presumption of innocence for accused men

Hey OP, did you know that you are legally able to protest this? Like you can go organize a group and stage a protest.

Erin Pizzey did something similar; she got a lot of death and bomb threats.

The only math that matters is how many minds you changed. Classical protests often backfire by that arithmetic.

You think online protests do?

10 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 1

It's all about reaching minds and making actual lasting changes in them. Traditional protests do that less than Imgur comments.
