Is it true that women have more privilege than men because they can easily get a man fired by just accusing him of sexual assault? #GenderPrivilegeDebate #MenVsWomen #SexualAssaultAccusations
Have you ever encountered someone who believes that women are more privileged than men because they have the power to ruin a man’s career by falsely accusing him of sexual assault? #GenderEqualityDiscussion #WorkplaceHarassment #BelieveWomen
i hate everyone at this rate.
comments like that only encourage more sexism. it’s so annoying. women this, men that. just shut up😭
It’s kinda true tho
I wouldn’t say women are more privileged, but I have seen a false SA accusation get someone fired. Proven false because she thought she’d turned the store cameras off, instead she had only turned off the outside cameras. Store offered the guy his job back but he refused it, and last I heard she was facing charges.
Equal rights, equal fights, equal hate ✊️
omfg
Sorry It’s true in some aspects. Each side has their own privileges. Like how in England women can’t legally “rape” men and therefore can’t be charged as such. And how female predator teachers get notoriously less backlash, the boy will even be told he was “lucky” to score her. In the news it will say the female teacher “had sex with” the student, not raped them. The double standard is indeed real. Young men have lost scholarships and jobs due to false rape allegations, it’s been documented. It’s much harder for fathers to gain equal custody of children in court during divorces, fathers have had to fight for rights to see their children even if it’s known that the mother isn’t up to snuff. All the woman has to do is claim he’s verbally abusive or has been abusive in the past to tank his chances. Also, police take domestic violence calls much much MUCH more seriously if it’s a woman calling in. Even if the guy dv victim has scratches and bruises he risks being laughed at and called weak, not only by law enforcement but by friends and family. The list goes on.
Yeah, I’m super privileged because I was s/a’d and still forced to see him until I was 12.
the grass always look greener on the other side
Both genders are equally oppressed in different ways
Unfortunately it’s true. If I said that a girl SA me, they most likely wouldn’t even care. But if they said I SA her, I’d be arrested.
“Women are” and “men are” are such stupid statements to begin with. its basically just summing up half the worlds population into one set of traits when every single human is different in some way
to an extent yes women r more priviledged but theres more than what ur friend has said + also sometimes men are more priviledged than women
While his example may be correct, I don’t think it could be fairly said to amount to the point he’s trying to make with it. A woman can get a man fired by false accusations, that’s a provable fact. But it’s just one in a long, long list of privileges and disadvantages that both genders face. I don’t think you could really say that either is more privileged than the other as a whole
Everyone is privileged in someway.
It’s equally shit for everyone and we should just look to make it better for everyone.
And no, those in need of severe mental care do not need their desires met. They need mental care. And no, everyone means everyone. Not just that one group you particularly like.
Excluding is pointless. Life is shit. Stop making it harder. Try make it easier for eachother and we may actually get some enjoyment before we die.
Women are privileged in certain aspects in life, but overall men have many more privileges
for example, a woman would have a much better chance of making a lot of money from an Only-fans than a man would.
A lot of people would end the argument there, on the conclusion that women are more privileged because they can make more money that way.
But what they ignore is that men are promoted much more often than women are in standard jobs. A standard job promotion is much more likely to happen in the real world than a woman’s Only-fans account blowing up. Not to mention that most women wouldn’t WANT to expose their bodies and start an Only-fans in the first place.
This logic is applicable across the board. Your friend’s statement of a woman being able to get a man fired easily might be true, but;
1. How many women would ACTUALLY do that?
2. Men, who make up 93.6% of CEOs in the US, also have the power to fire anyone they’d like with ease.
So to say women are more privileged based on a hypothetical possibility is an insane statement. There’s a lot of things women COULD do if they were willing to take advantage of their few privileges and risk the consequences that come with them, but most women wouldn’t be willing to do those things.
As a girl who commonly gets mistaken for a guy, just no. People online treat me with more respect and are more likely to listen to what i have to say when they think i’m a guy, plus i don’t get creeps in my dm’s
He’s wrong. Just statistically. Even if not in the present day, especially back a couple centuries then where women were treated closer to property than actual people so rape was normalized for men on women.
Also, it’s been documented that false rape allegations dont actually benefit women as much as men think it does. Oftentimes, even if a woman’s rape experience is real, if it’s done against a man, the chances of societal backlash and shame culminate in the woman either not being taken seriously or just straight up being blamed as the perpetrators(aka “She asked for it”, “she manipulated me”, “she seduced me”, etc etc).
Although rape in general is disregarded because most of the time, rape is made by a close friend/family/lover and those who are victims sometimes dont realise they’re victims and this can go for male victims especially as they have a societal expectation of playing the strong. Considering that women used to be property and denying a husband the right to sex was considered disrespectful and the husbands will oftentimes get abusive, it’s no wonder that women suffering from rape has more of a spotlight nowadays where women finally have equal rights and a pedestal where they have power and influence to talk about their stories.
Women privileges are often just exaggerated means of which people blame feminism for not focusing on the well being of men rather than a mistake on the equal opportunities gievn to women and if you’re in actual decent and healthy relationships, this shouldnt happen.
Fact is, society at large for most countries benefit men more women. Men get paid more, get taken more seriously, dont have the fear of being assaulted just by walking at night, less physically strong, and less societally favored in nearly all aspects besides physical attractiveness, less support in physical and mental well being especially in the medical field, and always having a risk of pregnancy in a relationship, it’s no secret that women suffering is a huge focus on giving women the chance to reclaim their power.
As all cases, feminism is all about giving equal rights and equal support for both genders which historically only men have been having. If you want to fight for a better world where this doesnt exist, making up arbitrarily small percentages of men who get accused of rape and calling g that “women privilege” is the least useful thing you can do. Compliment your brother, lend them a shoulder to cry on, do actions that make people of all genders feel safe for a better future.
I’m not gonna say anything or point fingers, but I met numerous women who say that men can’t get raped, and my friends ex even tried to say that he raped her. He is a very gentle person and he wouldn’t do anything like that to anyone
God should just blow up the world and restart it again.
Both genders have privilege in different ways. Society fucks us all over in different ways
why do we still have gender wars in 2024. everyone’s life sucks but in different ways. move on
Falsely accusing someone of sa isn’t a privilege
Is massive CUNT behaviour
As someone who has had allegations been thrown against me
It’s really as short as:
Is there evidence?
Is there footage?
Is there evidence X was near Y at the time or at any point during that day?
Any suspicious behaviour?
That’s it?
I walked out of the court with nothing and she got god knows because I was half asleep throughout the whole thing
I have also reported someone for SA on me before
If you are a guy you get asked for footage/evidence and that’s it
I sent the video from the pub cctv and they essentially gave her a slap on the wrist even though she grabbed my ass numerous times (6 times to be exact and on the dot) and grabbing my balls before I shoved her away (she reached into my pants as grabbed from behind not the front)
I’m not going to hate all women though just because two twats decided to do this things
I’m also not going to undermine the severity of actual mental illness that is caused due to SA
Especially with post sa and suicidal rate being so high as of current
I think both men and women have privileges over eachother. But one is not really more privileged than the other, although if one was more privileged than the other it would definitely be men
Intersectionalism. People are privileged and disadvantaged in different ways because they’re made up of a patchwork of identities.
Ie. a rich black woman is more privileged than a poor white man
The inverse is also true
Ex friend? You mean ex friend, right? Right?
There are some instances where women are privileged. Child custody is a big one.
Yes because women get such great public support when accusing rape. They also always get their abusers arrested and those arrests definitely last for years and not just a few days because the judges feel sorry for the abuser who “had his whole life ahead of him”
People are stupid
Pretty sure the U.S GDI is 1.001, meaning woman are 1/1000th more privileged than men, statically…
Wouldn’t say he’s wrong at all..
He’s not wrong in that regard, because it’s true, women are generally believed more than men are in situations like that, and it’s very easy for a man’s reputation to be destroyed by accusations like that, regardless of whether or not they’re proved true. However, it’s pretty bold to say that women overall are more privileged. I’d say that men and women both face a bunch of similar and different disadvantages in the world and it’s not fair to say that one side suffers more than the other. Additionally, making a competition to see who suffers the most is absolutely stupid if you’re actually hoping to solve anything. Your friend has one true point, but he isn’t right about everything.
I mean women are favored more in certain things, like custody battles, you finna tell me that men stand an equal chance?
Women are innocent until proven guilty.
Men are guilty until proven innocent.
He’s right
spitting facts
Relatable because a girl did that EXACT thing to me.
its true.
Me and my friend who was a girl were messing around in middle school drawing wieners on our homework because we thought it was funny, the teacher tried to get me in trouble for sexual harassment on her behalf.
She could’ve easily ruined my life that moment. Luckily she’s awesome, helped me out and we’re still friends.
In my country there is a young politician who threw around with sexual harassment accusations. Shes under alot of controversy and is generally a very toxic person according to other party members
This is true. The feminism and support for women and DV against them is good in that we’re trying to reduce and eliminate it, but sometimes there are falsities and hypocrisy with all the power they have. Stuff like mental problems and thinking men can’t be assaulted either. We need to look in on that as well
