For example workplace harrasment by women towards males like touching or groping being ignored because the victim is male but if it where to happen to a woman by a male the male would be fired

      Universally every aspect from risk of being murdered to rape to domestic abuse to pregnancy/abortion — women face massive fucking challenges disproportionate to men… JUST like minorities face disproportionate challenges to my fellow white males.

      So I’m a bit surprised when I see an argument of, “Your comments here an example of double standard” because I don’t think you’d take too keenly to saying that White Lives Matters is just as worthy of respect and having community here as Black Lives Matter … And if you do, well then I want nothing to do with you.

      The logic underpinning these two subjects is identical. Hence the cognitive dissonance.

          how do you explain black on black violence issues

          What are you driving at here? You think this is some sort of gotcha?

              I’ve thus far seen ZERO — 0 — Nada — Null — Zilch Facts presented.

              … Or wait, did it ever dawn on you that that still counts as being a female victim…? Or did it ever dawn on you that data on gay couples is far more sparse than the troves of data on what make up heterosexual relationships?

              … And are you going to sit there and seriously tell me that you couldn’t grasp the fact that “black on black” violence argument is a trope raised by objective racists to skirt the reality of racial discrimination?

              It is honestly remarkable that you believe this is some kind of gotcha. Amateur shit, really. Do better.

                  Please tell me you actually read past the second paragraph.

                  Padme: You read past the second paragraph, right…?

                  Golly, it’s almost like that article proves my point. Thank you.

                  Here let me do you one better.

                  Approximately 97.1% of female victims of rape, physical violence, or stalking by an intimate partner had only male perpetrators, whereas 2.1% had only female perpetrators (data not shown).

                  Source

                  Overall, about 2 in 3 women have reported being victims while around 1/3 of men have. So let me just drive this point home for your noggin: The vast majority of victims of rape, physical violence, or stalking are women, and the vast majority of perpetrators are men. End of story. That’s all she wrote.

                  Meanwhile, bisexual women have the greatest rates of abuse than either lesbian or heterosexual women by a large margin.

                  By the way, just going to drop a hint: Just because you identify as lesbian now or are in a lesbian relationship now doesn’t mean you were always lesbian and always had women partners… Duh. In fact, many women who come out of abuse tend to find comfort in other women. Turns out, these studies don’t account for that little tidbit.
