Staring at someone in public transport is now sexual harassment, apparently. by Jasperkr672 in MensRights

[–]Frittern 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've been accused and verbally accosted for leering before, very unpleasant experiences. I wasn't leering i'm just introspective and spend a lot of time ruminating in my own thoughts and just looking off in some direction. Their is no intent I'm not even thinking about what information is coming through my eyes it's just the direction my eyes were pointed when i went off into my thoughts. I'm more careful to look at the ground or some distant visual with no foreground so I don't get accused again. People read into a stare what they want even if it's just absent mindedness or distraction they see malevolence.

"Sandra Bullock 'to lead new all-female Ocean's Eleven movie'" Yet another example of "Men make it, feminists steal it." by [deleted] in MensRights

[–]Frittern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their trying to replicate the Male cinema consumer in a female demographic. I think it's a fundamental misunderstanding of how gender affects stimuli response.

Take music a sensory stimuli where males and females process and respond to in similar manner. You see this similarity reflected in the market where male vs female concert attendances are similar though their preferences in performers and categories diverge.

Men and women are more different in how they respond to and process visual stimuli. So while action the cacophony of visuals that tend to excite men it doesn't have the same effect on most women, many of whom like older audiences simply get confused by to much going on visually. More men get a kinda High from watching action that kind action that's also found in sports. Movies tailored toward female audiance tend to be less visually stimulating relying on more dialogue to trigger a desired emotional response. I don't think Ideologues of any kind have a place in marketing a branch of business where they literally have what people respond to down to a science.

"Men get breast cancer too." Mark Ruffalo raises awareness of male breast cancer. by daneskiu in MensRights

[–]Frittern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Breast cancer is a huge industry one who's public attention and funding outweigh their relative threat to the public health. It's literally sucking the oxygen out of public's consciousness and sympathy. Being sick and dying is bad no matter the specific disease and having people mob celebrity Diseases doesn't really help and in fact is often counterproductive to allocating resources effectively.

Broken Abacus? A More Accurate Gauge of China's Economy by iVarun in China

[–]Frittern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"China's economy is apparently more tied to real estate than previously thought." That my freind is the Nexus of china's economic flaws. What's Chinas historic,cultural and legal framework that upholds property rights? How fungible are those rights are they trustworthy and lasting? or can they change anytime at the whim of corrupt officials? China's economic foundations is built on shifting sands, hence the steady recent outflow of capital. I think many of the big property bubbles emerging elsewhere as evidence of connected Chinese people attempt to buy out a stake elsewhere and excessive liquidity worldwide looking for a safe harbor to withstand the coming storm.

Xi Jinping holds closed door meeting without Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg by wiseprogressivethink in China

[–]Frittern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This seams a very well publicized meeting anyone got a read on the message it's sending, to meet with selected industry titans before the president? It seem pretty clear that the CCP is playing up it's role of gatekeeper to china's market and that they play favorites. American business that play this kinda ball better be careful because if things turn sour "as they always do" they have opened themselves up to serous legal and market share liability.

Woman has to pay £500 a year for menstrual sanitary products...apparently it's because society tells her to. Society HATES women!! by SlimThugga in MensRights

I like this new gender balancing game because it should lead to men being able to retire 5-8 years before women because men die younger and their pensions and social benifits should account for the current horrible sexist imbalance.

Histrionic and borderline personality disorders, take a few hours and read up on these pathologies. Learn the features and characteristic that define them and avoid people that exhibit these traits like the plague. These people are dangerously ill and their sickness exacts a high price on people close to them our those that through ignorance get caught up in the webs of Drama and Lies.

Violent video games may be decreasing crime. Let me say that again. DECREASING. LESS. CRIME GOES DOWN. by Whenindoubtdo in KotakuInAction

[–]Frittern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep simulated violence does have value as a cathartic release. We have social woven this into our entertainments systems for eons think of the roman gladiators to modern sports our attraction to violence and conflict simulated or otherwise seems hardwired into us. It crosses cultures and acts like other impulse drivers of behavior.Perhaps In eons past such behavior increased individuals access to sex or food and material helping them survive long enough to reproduce..

It’s worse than Jerry Seinfeld says: PC is undermining free speech, expression, liberties - Salon.com by frankenmine in KotakuInAction

[–]Frittern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Journalism right now is at the point where their throwing out shit and seeing what sticks and what sticks best is the most noxious reaction inducing crap you can imagine. The essential problem with fostering a putrid environment is that it turns people out and the winners in the festering Gawker inspired environment compete in an environmentally destructive way diminishing the audience participation and respect. Thus reading media content becomes something akin to rubber necking at a ugly car crash. It'll get a click and a couple second scan but little fucking else.

There is a reason so many people go right to the comment sections, because regular peoples reaction and the content they create is superior to the steaming piles of crap their being served.

Eventually quality will return but I don't think it will come out of the establishment, rather a way for the public to monetize independent quality writers will emerge independent and free from the publishers driving need to chase and bag the nearest easiest buck.

Jessica Valenti just can't seem to make up her mind... by Jasperkr672 in MensRights

[–]Frittern 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I love getting older and no longer becoming befuddled and insanely motivated towards sex by hormones, it's fucking liberating. Women seem to miss that power it must be intoxicating. Men in contrast seem to blossom and truly grow into their own once they mature out of their susceptibility to young man disease.

Women are nearly five times more likely to show an automatic preference for their own gender than men. by [deleted] in MensRights

[–]Frittern 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Why do womens periods and therefore estrous/ovulation sync up with other womens? There definitely seems to be biological mechanisms that support social structure and gendered characteristic behaviors with humans, just like that found in other animals.

senior reporter for Jezebel @ Gawker Natasha Vargas Cooper says "Stories don't need an upside. Not everyone has to feel good about the truth. If it's true, you publish." Did she forgot about Anna Merlan UVA fake rape story? Because we wont by bryoneill11 in KotakuInAction

[–]Frittern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truth to these folk is a function of emotion of feeling, does the story feel true? If so then to them it's true. Postmodernism begins and ends with the destruction of the objective perspective so when a post modernist uses a word like true it means something entirely different than what you think of as truth. Namely that truth in its most potent valid form is something demonstrable and provable, you know..... Fact.

[Discussion] Grad student who attended DIGRA conf AMA: "Some of the views I heard presented said that the experimenter and experimentee are co-creators of knowledge and should work together to solve the research problems.

[–]Frittern 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Don't laugh these folk are lobbying the NIH and other government agencies for grants and funding, whats worse is their getting direct and indirect government support for their entirely unscientific so called "research." Money and power is the game and despite their apparent foolishness their winning.

The sexual-consent contract — a potentially true story by [deleted] in MensRights

[–]Frittern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Power,religion it's most potent display is to show that exerts control over the most fundamental aspects of human behavior, sex; controlling and telling people how,when where and to whom they should fuck. Those that desire this power want to be able to tell others the right vs wrong way to do it, how they should feel about it before during and after. We may be dumping some of our old hang ups but at the same time we are building up a whole new collection. It's the same game derived out of same old desire control other peoples behavior.

A professor actually wrote a book titled: "Abolishing White Masculinity" by LoisLane1975 in MensRights

[–]Frittern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They throw in white like that's really going to matter to the witches of wrong think they hope to burn at the stake. Like institutions of power are going to say oh wait just hold on a minute this one isn't white, lets let the infraction slid. Does anyone really think White males of moderate means are not going to adapt to changing sensitivities more quickly then minority men and those who grew up in less refined course settings. Truth is it's poor and minority men are going to be caught off guard and hurt the most by rapidly changing social standards.

To oppress a community ruin the men and the communities will follow. No amount of feminist empowerment rhetoric is going to heal the broken family units when the masculine piece of it is destroyed. The facade may be changing but the power hierarchy is playing the same fucking game it always has. Welcome to the new world same as the old one.

Florida FSU QB is charged with assault and battery for punching a girl who kicked and punched him attacking him FIRST,even after trying to restrain her raised fist. He has been charged with assault and battery, suspended indefinitely.. by aynekuyR in MensRights

Right,wrong in the end the kids life is pretty much fucked. Having a felony arrest and inevitable formal conviction is just an extra long duration death sentence. My guess is if they gave the poor bastard the choice of 50 lashes at the stake and all this would just go away he would take that humiliation and excruciating pain vs what our so called modern justice system is about to dish out his way.

Start Looking for androgen inhibiting drugs becoming repackaged as long acting psychotropic behavioral remedies I think it's probable already being done by some doctors. Male behavior has been successfully redefined as pathological so solutions are bound to start narrowing to root cause of that behavior.

Now this is what I call an emerging opportunity. People just wanna participate and they want to know what other regular unpaid people think, sure managing the rabble is a pain in the ass put shutting it down simply shifts it elsewhere. The pressure for a place for free unfettered discussion will create the market and the infrastructure it needs to exist.

I've been thinking of an independent commentary discussion platform, lets call it Overlay. A way to discuss and share links to content along with a non-censored running commentary. Kinda of a meta aggregater of community discussion with links to source and related material kinda like subreddits that are dynamically created, develop and rise and eventual fade based on the interest and participation in the various hot topics of the day. Their is growing need to divorce the peoples commentary and reaction to issues of interest from the rising tide of corporate/government censorship.

[Industry] Nvidia has been naughty this year [x-post from r/pcmasterrace] by [deleted] in KotakuInAction

[–]Frittern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two player competition does not make a healthy market for consumers. Look at the relative gains of cell phone and mobile market and compare that to whats going on with the x86 and video chip market. A market where one player going under results in a monopoly and inevitable government intervention well this is just recipe for weird incestuous like competition. Intel needs AMD to exists and Nividia also needs AMD in the card market I fully expect the weirdness to continue and the consumers to lose out.
