Are you like Verbatim:
Or do you represent actual oppressed women?
Women in America are oppressed, just like women in the Middle East are.
You aren't a hypocrite if you a volunteer at an American soup kitchen because third world countries are hungrier.
Give examples of oppression in the Western world, please.
Institutionalized discrimination is oppression.
Women can do anything, as long as men let them - is that right?
Women can't do anything, neither can men. We're limited by our social position and wealth. Women by default have a lower social positon than men because of the institutionalized discrimination they face. That's the problem.
Lower social position? How can you be at a lower social position not by your choice?
Wealth? That's the way our world works, wealthy people can do more - financially only.
If you're discriminated against by the government and society, you're lower socially than someone who isn't.
This isn't hard.
Oh noes! My lower social position!
No shit, there's issues on both sides and it's not black and white. "Women are systematically oppressed" doesn't mean "mean literally live on the 7th cloud".
Not to mentioned some of these are ridiculous. How is "circumcision is legal" a "female privilege"?
Because it is legal to circumcise males but not females, pretty much.
It's not when the surgical procedures aren't comparable. There's a good reason why female genital mutilation is called that, and why it's outlawed.
I still think infant circumcision should be illegal, but based on gender equality, because it's not equal to FGM.
That seems based on a lacking understanding of female circumcision procedures. There's many different types and the labia or clitoris are only removed in a few of them. Very often it's limited to a small knick or cut of the clitoral hood, which is the exact female counterpart of the foreskin. The consequences of those are at the same level of male circumcision (if not less) and yet they are still outlawed just the same despite being done for pretty much the exact same reasons (assumptions about hygiene, religion, social approval, culture, sexuality...).
I don't disagree with you, but the argument that they're incomparable and shouldn't be part of the same debate only holds true for the most extreme cases of female circumcision and ignores much of reality. Both practices should be illegal and drawing comparisons with female circumcision is perfectly valid in this debate when considering other types of FGM too.
I wasn't aware of that, that makes sense. I withdraw my stance on that subject.

Because FGM is not.
I still don't see who needs to change and how they need to change for the oppression to stop. And don't tell me its society....
I'm heavily against infant circumcision, but you can't really compare it to FGM. In one a loose flap of skin is cut off, in one it's the nerve and blood vessel filled labia, and sometimes the vulva is sown shut.
Society would have to change to stop the oppression that is on a society-wide level, but it's obviously going to be gradual and slow. At this point it's mainly the attitude of people that will change with generational shifts rather that laws.
And yes, that includes fixing the biases that exists against men as well.
So by society, you actually mean rich people?
I mean all levels of society.

You don't temper a blade by pounding it with a hammer. You have to heat it up to the point where it is around 1400F, or over really so long as you don't get it to liquid state, then you have to quench it in something that will cause it to undergo a rapid cooling in temperature. You can either use water, oil, or even isothermal salts and molten lead. After that, it will be extremely brittle and you will need to reheat it inside a kiln or oven and can use a temperature between 350F - 730F, depending on the final color you want and/or how long you want to have it in there..
So for my soul to be tempered I need to be really passionate about something and then have a rude awakening?

https://www.sharjah24.ae/en/health-and-family/186854-fap-to-organise-the-future-in-your-hands-marathonDubbed ‘The Future in Your Hands’, the marathon aims at raising awareness of the multiple types of arthritis, their symptoms and methods of treatment, as well as the challenges that arthritis patients face and ways of supporting them morally and financially.
Concluding a series of events and activities launched by FAP across the emirate in 2016 in support of arthritis patients, the marathon is in collaboration with Sharjah Police, and the Sharjah Sports Council.
From disabled people to first-time runners, this year’s marathon will see an array of people participating with enthusiasm, as it’s divided into 4 different stages, each targeting a specific age group.
While the first stage is devoted to children aged 3 – 10 years, who will run for 2 kilometers, the second stage will see adolescents aged 11 – 17 running for 5 kilometers, whereas the third stage, designed for adults aged 18 – 50 years, will span over 8 kilometers.
The organising committee has also dedicated a special stage for senior citizens, who will compete in a 1-kilometer walkathon.
The marathon kicks off at 4:00pm, criss-crossing various areas of the city, starting with Al Mamzar and finishing at Al Ibreeq Roundabout. Winners will be awarded with several prizes presented by the Supreme Council of Family Affairs in Sharjah.
Waheeda Abdul Aziz, Head of FAP, thanked Her Highness Sheikha Jawaher bint Mohammed Al Qasimi, wife of His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah and Chairperson of the Supreme Council for Family affairs, for her unwavering support for FAP and her auspicious patronage of the Association’s year-round activities.
Abdul Aziz described the marathon as an ideal opportunity for volunteer work, and expected a huge turnout exceeding 5,000 participants.
“The Future in Your Hands marathon is one of our philanthropic community events which we continually organise in support of arthritis patients to shed light on the disease’s different psychological, economic and social impacts,’ she added.
In support of arthritis patients, FAP launched four marathons over the past few years, with the first one organised in 2009 under the theme ‘Movement Is Life.’ A total of more than 8000 supporters of the cause have participated.

If there's any way to artificially end your perioid, it's not safe or healthy. Periods are natural and fine, just extremely unpleasant. They're a testament to how women inherently have it harder than men, and claiming that it's all good because you can fuck with your body and not have periods is retarded.
Now you're just moving the goal post since I proved it can be negated. Bleeding from the vagina is minor inconvenience when you take into account the job roles limited to men.
LMAO cry me a river
meninists are the most annoying people
ever heard of the wage gap, glass ceiling, slut shaming, or misogyny? Keep whining about your petty MRA trivialties
I'm not a meninist I just believe that female suffering in the West is overstated.
>Slut Shaming
Free speech
Just because something is not illegal to say it doesn't mean it's not something negative women face. What was your logic coming from either that argument? I guess we should go back to the old times when women couldn't vote because hey - that was the law so nothing could possibly be wrong with it.
