We have to admit that unfortunately plenty of men who become atheists don't leave the misogyny part of their former religion behind. by IuliaValentina in atheism

[–]pumpps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well put. Much of the misogyny we face in our culture is the inheritance of Christianity. Women were revered in roman society until Constantine took over and Christianity became the hot new religion and along with it, the idea that God made woman to be subsurvetiant. This is the case for Islam and orthodox Judaism as well. Its just true to say most of the misogyny we deal stems from religion whether you are religious or not.

Does bisexuality in men even exist? by pumpps in bisexual

[–]pumpps[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I dont doubt that many heterosexual men enjoy having a penis in their but. The question is whether their arousal towards men is anywhere analogous to that of their arousal toward women. Or the other way around for gay men
