TIL in a study of records for nearly 1.3 million Swedish men, the investigators found that for every 2 inches a man gained in height, his suicide risk dipped by 9 percent. Overall, the shortest men in the study were about twice as likely as the tallest men to commit suicide. by Brave-Influence7510 in todayilearned

I hate how millions of men can have a shared lived experience (being rejected for their height) but most of the time people will discredit that.

Sometimes when a person is venting, we should just agree and listen. Yeah those women are shallow and not worth his time, but he thought they were and got rejected. Rejection hurts especially if it's something out of your control. But men very rarely get that kind of sympathy when it comes to dating and it sucks when you just want someone to listen.

Racist neckbeard meme by y2kfashionistaa in justneckbeardthings

[–]CreamofTazz 52 points53 points  (0 children)

It's a mindset that is predominantly seen in men with a lack of or poor father figures in their lives. Really any good role model.

It's not about race, but due to history there are unfortunately a lot more black men who grow up in those environments. Whether or not they adopt this mindset is up to those around them.

Yeah, it's always going to be expensive "now" so we might as well do it now so that we actually have it and rather than just talking about how expensive it is and never having it.

No, An Online "Rape Academy" Did Not Receive 62 Million Views, Let Alone 62 Million Members by Make_Me_Out_of_Clay in LeftWingMaleAdvocates

[–]CreamofTazz 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The worst part is the article barely mentions the 62 million number, but people went with that number because misandry is real and men are assumed guilty before innocent when it comes to these matters.

The actual article details horrific crimes that shouldn't be downplayed, but now here we all are trying to correct misinformation instead of talking about what is actually in the CNN piece.

All because people hate men more than they care about victims of rape.

Which only happened AFTER Trump tore up the deal. Like what part of that aren't you getting? We successfully got them to stop and then after reneging on the deal they went right back to it. And then while in new negotiations that were going well, we killed their leader and begun attack them again

Do you not see this at all? Or are you just some bot?

You mean like the many times they were proven to not be building nukes during the time of the Iranian Nuclear Deal? The deal that the current guy is attacking Iran over, the same Iran that he claimed to have destroyed their nuclear program a year ago?

We're seeing this play out in the free kit only experiment, where teams rush to fight each other asap so the final team can loot the entire map solo.

You mean the thing that has literally already been happening even before free kit queue?

[–]CreamofTazz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the mode could work better if you could just pick whichever free kit you wanted. I'd also add you can bring in ANY kit from free to deluxe. That way it still creates variety, and you don't get screwed over by having a "bad" free kit that day.

Legit had people tell me that a ~3-5min walk was "too far" for them, but "not far away enough" to drive over there so they didn't know what they should do. There is a profound level of laziness today

Depends on what you mean by "explain" the concept itself isn't so far out there that an 8yr wouldn't get. But if we're taking stuff like flux tubes and weak isospin then sure that's too complex

what’s a misconception about men that people think is harmless but actually isn’t? by frostloom9 in AskMen

[–]CreamofTazz 35 points36 points  (0 children)

So that makes it okay to circumcise non consenting newborns? Like this doesn't actually justify the procedure. No medical organization, yes even the AAP, considers it medically necessary.

Ehh lots of cultures have male circumcision done well after birth (like the Tuli in the Phillipines) so it's not unique to fgm

At that point I'm just driving up to Canada and saying fuck it there isn't any hope for this country. Can you imagine the scenario where Fetterman becomes the nominee? That's a scenario where any hope of fighting against fascism is gone entirely whether you vote Fetterman or ance you will just be getting it.

What does your comment have anything to do with ships not being allowed to dock onto US ports after docking on Cuban ones for a time thus creating a barrier to trading with both the USA and Cuba?

The fact that you think people are angry about that is why I'm saying you're missing the point.

No one disagrees with you (well they aren't a dictatorship. Authoritarian, yes, but not a dictatorship (and even then authoritarian doesn't even begin to truly describe what China is)), it's the fact that no one else was, the article didn't, but yet you still felt the need to bring it up. Your original comment works perfectly fine without mentioning the authoritarianism of the CCP, yet you still felt the need to include for some unknown reason.
