"Jeesh what is this utter claptrap, surely no intelligent, emotionally mature male actually believes the crap they peddle??

"

i find it nauseating...its being regarded by a lot of educationalists as potentially dangerous as other types of radicalisation.. its repulsive. Lot of targeting of young men through 'fitness and health' etc websites, along with their 'motivational' videos etc..very scary stuff... on here there are a few men who spout great chunks lifted from their imbecilic blogs.

"Never heard of it ... What is it? "

It's the most absurd and pernicious reaction to feminism as far as I can gather! We've had a couple of young men on here spouting their ridiculous theories but i never bothered to look it up before!!

"The "Manosphere" is a loose network of websites oriented towards a particular vision of masculinity, sometimes called neomasculinity. It includes men's rights and many pick-up artist blogs, as well as some bodybuilding and men’s fashion blogs, although the latter aren’t the ones that draw controversy for having a hateful misogynistic rhetoric. The most benign end of the spectrum may include legitimate dating and sex advice, or concern for legal issues affecting men (such as child custody rights) - while the other "radical" end of the spectrum ventures into slut-shaming, women-hating, and (to a lesser extent) homophobic rhetoric resembling that of many Christian and Islamic fundamentalists.

The thing that ties these boys' clubs together is their collective obsession with feminism and the weird way in which they express both a strong desire and a profound distaste for women. Much of the animosity centers on self-proclaimed "Nice Guys"™ believing that all of their troubles with women are simply because said "evil, golddigging, slutty women" are too stupid to realize how great said men are (the possibility that maybe they're really just losers having never crossed their minds). They also share a similar vocabulary and troubling attitudes concerning sexual assault.

In an example of crank magnetism, many of these people also embrace racism in general and anti-Semitism in particular. There's also a fair amount of overlap between the manosphere and the neoreactionary and alt-right movements (as seen in the Gamergate kerfuffle). There has even been some indication that MRA is a pathway into the alt-right.[1]"

I actually find the whole thing a bit sad. Some of the issues the movement raises are actually very important and heartbreaking - I'm thinking of child custody rights in particular. But most of the nonsense that gets built up around those legitimate issues taints the validity of it all.

It does amount to radicalization in a way. And the fact that, historically and statistically speaking, angry young single men are the easiest target group to radicalize to violence is disturbing.

You didn’t type that, you lifted it from another critique site. That’s not your own work.

Your definition is too narrow also. There are many women who advocate for men. Google the Honey Badgers and Cassie Jay.

Cassie Jay dared to make a film highlightin men’s issue and she is a self proclaimed feminist. She was no platformed and vilified by other women.

In an example of crank magnetism, many of these people also embrace racism in general and anti-Semitism in particular. There's also a fair amount of overlap between the manosphere and the neoreactionary and alt-right movements (as seen in the Gamergate kerfuffle). There has even been some indication that MRA is a pathway into the alt-right.[1]

For Red Pillers, genuine reality goes something like this: Female oppression is a myth and men are the ones holding the short end of the stick. That said, men and women are inherently different due to evolution, so each gender should carry out its designated role in society. For example, females should raise children at home and men should work and& have sex with women.

Red Pill pays a lot of attention to that last part about sex – conversations on the forum are often about one's strategies for attracting mates, but there's a present (if slightly lesser) focus on self-improvement as well. Community members motivate each other and update everyone on their progress as they lose weight at the gym and build muscle, though it's almost always for the end goal of increasing one's sexual eligibility......

There seems to be an inherent contradiction at the heart of this community – it's an overwhelmingly male population advocating unpopular opinions on females, but it is almost entirely focused on attracting and seducing as many of them as possible.....

The prime candidates for this community generally seem to be men who, for whatever reason, have had bad luck with women or have been otherwise wronged by a female. It can also be a person who's tired of what he perceives as a culture of misandry, seeing gender-based causes for social wrongs. And it can be for guys who just want to get laid more often and want advice on how to get there.

Morpheus explained it to us like this: "[When men] realize their failures [with women] were within their control to avoid, it can induce a bit of anger [...] I think that a lot of the men have a misplaced anger towards women. I wouldn’t say it’s hatred [...] They want to learn how to be better with women. But there is a temporary anger....

etc.etc.etc

Nice lesson re the quote marks, will look more for those next time.

Says it's a spectrum from the benign to the ridiculous. In that sense it's neither unique or worthy of special status.

For example, feminism has it's benign and radical.

It's absolute bollox and I reckon firmly sponsored by the christian right with a pro gun, anti , traditional family values tint.

"Never heard of it ... What is it?

It's the most absurd and pernicious reaction to feminism as far as I can gather! We've had a couple of young men on here spouting their ridiculous theories but i never bothered to look it up before!!

"The "Manosphere" is a loose network of websites oriented towards a particular vision of masculinity, sometimes called neomasculinity. It includes men's rights and many pick-up artist blogs, as well as some bodybuilding and men’s fashion blogs, although the latter aren’t the ones that draw controversy for having a hateful misogynistic rhetoric. The most benign end of the spectrum may include legitimate dating and sex advice, or concern for legal issues affecting men (such as child custody rights) - while the other "radical" end of the spectrum ventures into slut-shaming, women-hating, and (to a lesser extent) homophobic rhetoric resembling that of many Christian and Islamic fundamentalists.

The thing that ties these boys' clubs together is their collective obsession with feminism and the weird way in which they express both a strong desire and a profound distaste for women. Much of the animosity centers on self-proclaimed "Nice Guys"™ believing that all of their troubles with women are simply because said "evil, golddigging, slutty women" are too stupid to realize how great said men are (the possibility that maybe they're really just losers having never crossed their minds). They also share a similar vocabulary and troubling attitudes concerning sexual assault.

In an example of crank magnetism, many of these people also embrace racism in general and anti-Semitism in particular. There's also a fair amount of overlap between the manosphere and the neoreactionary and alt-right movements (as seen in the Gamergate kerfuffle). There has even been some indication that MRA is a pathway into the alt-right.[1]"

Oh good god \

I suspect that's a direct lift from a critique website.

And a man probably wrote it and she's taking credit for it!

Anyway....I've read a lot about this (and yes, I've seen the documentary you referenced earlier) and this description still reads as fairly accurate. .

If a man didn't write it...

It's probably not worth reading I say..

Hmm. I tend not to usually agree with you. But....I agree with this.

Although I will add what I said earlier - the whole red pill movement is more dangerous than feminism because of the higher likelihood of violence. I do believe we'll see physical repercussions in the future, particularly in the U.S.

Your definition is too narrow also. There are many women who advocate for men. Google the Honey Badgers and Cassie Jay.

Cassie Jay dared to make a film highlightin men’s issue and she is a self proclaimed feminist. She was no platformed and vilified by other women."

I think thanks to the internet (and the increasing influence it has on free thinking) that it's too early to tell how bad all this can turn out.

Feminists demonising young men as creeps and losers spawns more of this bile about women being bitches and sluts and and on and on in a ticking timebomb of self cofirming echo chamber god knows what.

I already mentioned above that I've seen the film.

The movement doesn't have a single cohesive core, so it's difficult to say where it advocates violence. But it's pretty easy to see the anger and threats associated with the movement when you read individuals' twitter and Reddit contributions to 'the cause', which I've done.

I'm making a prediction, which is never a truly smart thing to do. Time will tell.

You're conflating feminism with student protests (I reject your use of the label alt-left. The alt-right defined themselves by that label (just look at Breitbart) Just because other right-wing thinkers don't like it doesn't mean that they can use the alt-right's own descriptions against the left).

Anyway, as I said, you're conflating two different movements.

I'm making a prediction regarding the violent aspect, as I already said. We'll see what comes of it.

We see loads of it here - any woman on here is a low-value slut fit for shagging, and a high-value woman fit for being a gf/wife is obviously locked in a ivory tower somewhere!!!

Antifa have a very strong radical feminist contingent. This group overlaps with Communists too. Perhaps that's what he meant?

"So the long and the short of it is, men should be able to have loads of sex with loads of women but if a woman has loads of sex with loads of men, that's bad...

So where are the men suppose to get the women to have sex with???

Agree with you there in terms of the unfairness of that.

"Indeed it will. But I don't see any advocacy for violence in the at all. It that leads to people spouting off on keyboards then so be it but that is all it will most likely amount to.

And so you're making a prediction as well....

If you don't see any advocacy for violence.....then you aren't looking very hard. In fact, some of the movements that have been associated with the red pill movement have led to known death threats...

Anyway, that's not to say radical feminists haven't shown their own proclivity to violent remarks, however, it tends to be young single angry men who actually act on such violence, especially in the west. So the chance of it turning violent, even if just as a result of angry people behind their keyboards, is still higher than for radical feminism.

Radical feminism certainly tips into the AntiFa brigade and their antics are well known "

No. It doesn't.

You're conflating seperate movements. If we want to go in that direction.....it has been suggested that many people at the neo-Nazi protests in the US were supporters of the red pill movement (think about all those young white men with tiki torches in Virginia). One such man killed a woman by running her over with a car. Shall we conflate those movements or does it only apply to the left?

No, better to be precise, I think. On both sides.

"I've seen plenty of violence at those alt left student rallies to shut down free speech...an embarrassment to any sense of intellectual honesty at those institutions.

I think men are more prone to a lone wolf marginalised violent attacker and women are better at mobilising a group and persuading innocent bystanders with a more palatable hook message (after all...who doesn't want equality?...)

Plenty of psychology around small concessions to recruit..either cult members or customers. Sales 102.

You're conflating feminism with student protests (I reject your use of the label alt-left. The alt-right defined themselves by that label (just look at Breitbart) Just because other right-wing thinkers don't like it doesn't mean that they can use the alt-right's own descriptions against the left).

Anyway, as I said, you're conflating two different movements.

I'm making a prediction regarding the violent aspect, as I already said. We'll see what comes of it."

I'm not too hung up on the terminology all I know is i've seen some fairly rabid creatures at talks that respectful criticise feminism for many of the reasons discussed here.

There are radical feminists in Antifa - did you see the footage of the protests and banners?

And yes there are overlaps on both sides

Right. Ok.

Well then, I stand by my earlier assumption. One woman has been killed by a group associated with the red pill movement (of we are accepting your conflation). Who has antifa killed?

The answer is that they haven't killed anyone.

What is your point, exactly?

In the US, race and gender identity politics are peddled by the left. Religious and Race (pro-white, anti mexican/black) politics are also peddled by the right. (I avoid UK politics because it isn't a subject I'm great at).

Identity politics are used widely by everyone because they get people's emotions involved. I really dislike their use, but they are great at keeping the current power structure in check...
