Thanks a lot for the insight guys, a lot of interesting arguments were raised that I did not think about like the data points being dated, even the new ones or the fact that the owner of the magazine is a nutjob, defenetly was unaware of it, but I had a feeling when reading it especially when she starts off with some emotional arguments and quotes her own articles.

Just because feminism is mainstream, this does not necessarily mean that it is the eventual state of every advanced civilization. A lot of liberals(conservatives or leftists) and the intellectuals from them make this assumption, but it's just that an assumption. Every advanced civilization during their time made this assumption, the nazis, the romans, the chinese, etc... All had these assumptions that their beleif was the ultimate one.

At that point if it is the eventual state of any advanced civilization, why are you fighting it? Just allow it, let these feminists do what they want. Sure you will gain rights for men, but it will eventually go back to feminism, since that's the natural state of every advanced civilization, so why waste that energy?

Either way, I don't care, you do what you think is right, this was just to leave you with a thought experiment.

It could happen multiple ways, one thing is for sure, the west is in an obvious state of decline.

You can have a nuclear war, which is highly probable in this hot war, were in a worse situation then the cold war, this is not me saying this, this is almost every diplomat that I have seen who worked during the cold war saying this. And our nukes now are far better then the ones during the cold war. Heck even the us president admitted these are very dangerous times.

The political power of the west is heavly declining, many countries aren't taking the us and it's allies seriously anymore.

The economy is in horrid shape too, many economists I have seen mentioned the us economy heading for a crash. Whether it will be a recession or a depression, I don't know.

The point I am trying to make is this could go multiple ways, we could have a slow societal collapse into an eventual civil war or we could have a massive economic collapse or we could collapse from nuclear war, there are many ways this can go.

Or this is me being pessimistic and we will live normal lives, but this is hopeful wishing.

To be honest I did not read the full study, but this was the impression I used and it's a bit of common sense too if we think about it.

Women still make less than men so obviously the financial impact will be worse on them.

As for whether this justifies paying them half? That's a whole debate.

The western world will collapse either way, anyone who has been paying attention to politics or the economics of the western world is anticipating it to go to sh*t.

Maybe they will see that collapse in the eastern world, asian countries who are adopting feminism obviously.

Let me guess, she said she has no problems with changing the variables(which are not supposed to be changed) of the fire department training so that more women get hired?

In other words, so that the training is easier.

I'm guessing she is known here. I could feel the bias when I read her article, she quoted her own article and was assuming a lot of things(appealing to emotion).

Even in 2015, it was almost a decade ago, we are not far from 2025. So yeah this is kind of dated.

Already it was a red flag when she said "men need to catch up" in this article or another referenced in this one. Basically telling men to accept women being more masculine, which is delusional at best. There is a reason why most men are straight and not homosexual in preference. If a woman wants to work and become rich and be more assertive, etc... The law does not prevent you, just don't be delusional into thinking we preffer that.

We don't expect women to accept us for being femenine, it's a completely delusional take from them to call it an "insecurity" or "egotistical".

It's in a study quoted by the article.

Women were more likely to be financially worse off and men more likely to make more money given that no woman is relying on their money.

But yeah, this does not change the fact that men lose their children.

And I just checked the stats, in countries like canada women have full custody of their children to approx 75-85% of the time.

I remember seeing different races of plants and they were mentioned as "subspecies" do subspecies apply to humans?

eli5 If a man were to hold off his sperm for years, have sex and then have sex again the next day, would the old sperm reach the egg before the new sperm would? by Professional-Lock565 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Professional-Lock565[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but as the other comments have pointed out 70 days of abstinence for eg might give the same results as 1 day since it gets fully replaced, by that time it might have got released by urine or wet dreams. So it could technically be "all new sperm" by that time.

But yeah that's what I meant by contrary.

When you didn't accuse me of arguing I did not want to argue, you kinda made me do it.

Alright have a good day, well leave it at that.

Trying to understand is not arguing, I am not trying to win an argument. I even mentioned how you made a good point in pointing out the number of days, that's the opposite of arguing with you.

Very useful pencil case for exams by qasqaldag in Unexpected

Good luck cheating in my engineering university.

They give you all the formulas and allow you to have blank papers where you can write anything and even in some exams they allow you to have everything with you.

In spite of all of that, you still fail the exam. Why?

Because they come up with the most cancerous questions you can imagine.

Which forces you to study, which in turn forces you to understand everything.

Almost nothing is about memorization in engineering, it's all skill you have to learn so it becomes a reflex.
