Tell me that when we ban male genital mutilation.

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Aha aha aha but wait, it's equally legal in every state, thus making it just fine. /s

Would an inconsistent law really be better?

It should be consistently restricted.

There is at least a parental choice involved. The government is actively removing women's rights as we speak

[–] DempstersBox@lemmy.world -2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

No offense (lie) but cry me a fuckin river. Is it shitty, stupid, fucked up, and should be stopped? Sure! Wholeheartedly agree.

But framing it the same verbiage of something that KILLS LITTLE GIRLS or MAIMS THEM BEYOND BEING ABLE TO PISS let alone have a functional set of genitalia if they get to grow up

is fucking retarded

Sweet, I guess you win the oppression race

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

Way to pull the ladder up behind you. Selfish jerk.

Point out to me where exactly adult men’s right’s vary by state? Excluding racism because racism isn’t exclusive to gender.

If you cut through the dog-whistling bullshit, there are a lot of issues with child custody, for example. Access to the correct restroom is also highly state dependent. While the legal aspect is only part of it, genital mutilation rates are also variable by state.

Look, this isn’t a competition. Two things can be bad at the same time.

No one said it’s a competition, I’m genuinely asking you. Even under child custody I would be interested to actual know the details, as one might be surprised. Access to the correct restroom, do you mean trans? Because that seems a separate issue from “men’s” rights

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 3 points 1 day ago

Similar as to women's rights a lot of injustice is less enshrined in law and more in practice and societal reality. I.e. a comprehensive picture cannot merely be based on the detail of the law.

[–] stevestevesteve@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Every single one of the amendments called the bill of rights has different limitations per state.

A man's 1st amendment rights are legally different in Florida than in California

A man's 2nd amendment rights are legally different in Florida than in California

And so on. 3rd amendment is probably the least variable but still.

Name a "right" that doesn't vary state by state. Frequently our legal rights vary by county and city even. To pretend otherwise is to be willfully ignorant.

Fair enough. I would love for someone to point out where a man’s life saving healthcare varies by state.

Some people just don’t care if women die

[–] stevestevesteve@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I very much care if women die and it's so stupid to imply I don't when I'm disagreeing with the insanely ignorant OP. Stop making enemies out of allies.

If it had said men's life saving healthcare doesn't vary by state, that's a huge fucking difference and you know it. It would still be wrong, because everyone's access to healthcare varies vastly by state, but at least you'd have a leg to stand on.

[–] PeacefulForest@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Jesus Christ, I didn’t imply you don’t, but you know what? I’m going to straight up say you cannot fucking read. Read my message again. You’re making enemies when you’re taking that message so personal. Grow up.

The leg I have to stand on is women are historically treated like shit, and that’s the point here. Just look at the misogynists crawling around like maggots in this thread.

[–] stevestevesteve@lemmy.world 0 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

You did imply that and you're arguing in bad faith at this point. Bye

[–] PeacefulForest@lemmy.world 0 points 16 hours ago

If by saying “some people just don’t care if women die” feels like a personal attack, perhaps look at yourself in the mirror. All over the world this is a fact. Look at Gaza, look at Afghanistan, look at the overturning of roe V. Wade. Grow up.

A man having a fully clothed boner in public is illegal in Tennessee. And that’s not something we can control.
