Realised that men have privileges as well

Here are some points I was able to jot down after having a quarrel with some random strangers online:

1. Men are considered to be better as a professional, ever heard of a female fighter pilot being picked over a male? Or a woman mechanic taken seriously?
2. Men have longer shelf life, this is obvious and the reason why is that we have stronger bones and better muscle mass and can prolong our active lifestyle till the 60s if you take care.
3. We are stronger, smarter and less emotional
4. We are better orators
5. Old men are considered wise whereas old women do not get the same appreciation at the end stage
6. Men are seen as superior and accountable which is why a selfish woman is considered harmless yet a selfish man is a threat to society
7. Tfw no makeup, no shave(shredded miscers can disagree with this one)
8. We can stuff more fast food and liquor, women have a lower metabolic rate
9. Men can pick up new skills even after 30, why? Because testosterone boosts learning and development

In the end, men retiring away from life have an easier time leaving because they have seen everything

Of course there are pros/cons to being a woman and pros/cons to being a man.



The main difference is that most of the benefits of being a man come from nature and most of the benefits of being a woman come from society. Oddly enough, it is this very society that women complain about when talking about the evil patriarchy.

Its like the old saying.

The only people who complain about a meritocracy are the ones who were never going to0 benefit from it.

People whining about privilege are a bunch of losers who think if others dont have stuff that somehow it will be given to them.

Its like when they say they are empowering this or that. That just means that group couldn't generate its own power so they had to be given some. Thats never a good situation especially not in leadership or and critical roles.

Privilege is a good thing that people should strive to get. Not try to take away from others or shame them for.

Think about it. If you see a rich guy, you would like to see your son grow up to be like him. Doesnt have to be rich but maybe some heroic battlefield guy or something, could be any role model.

If you are the type who sees a rich person and right away doesnt like them simply because they are rich, you have something wrong with you. Those are the people with the microphone. The people who tear down statues of our forefathers.
"To be a warrior is not a simple matter of wishing to be one. It is rather an endless struggle that will go on to the very last moment of our lives. Nobody is born a warrior, in exactly the same way that nobody is born an average man. We make ourselves into one or the other."-- Carlos Castaneda

Sorry, bud, but anyone who whines about 'privilege' isn't diverting their limited mental energy towards meaningful pursuits. If you complain about other peoples' perceived privilege, you're probably just coping for your own lack of progress in various domains. It's a much easier cawk to swallow to divert blame to external sources than take a good, hard look internally and accept that your own shortcomings are absolutely of your doing.

Look at the incel types who post here. Notice it's never their fault.
*Look at reflection in car window and flex every time crew*
*Use half the roll to wipe after a poo crew*
*Fart in the gym and blame rotten smell on faulty ventilation crew*
*Fart at home and blame it on the dog crew*
*Watch neutron-star density poop mock me as water flushes around it and it stays put crew*
*Drive 2 minutes in the summer and back of shirt gets completely wet crew*
*Coffee black as midnight on a moonless night crew*
*Fat shame my cat on a daily basis crew*

I have heard of numerous cases where women deliberately dressed up as men to prove there is male privilege only to find out just how tough it is to live as a man and many end up severely depressed, demoralized, and regret they were influenced by feminism.

Yeh that's true but this is the only life I have and I can't bitch about everything, it's very uplifting when you realise that this is it!

You see, that consciousness is only given to you for a few moments and you can choose to act however you want to your pertaining circumstances.

Men are superior being after all. We should act as that

Yes men and women are different. For every privilege men have women have just as once. To important thing to focus on is establishing a strong society that balances out these pros/cons. The way western society is going > women are behaving and adopting more masculine roles. Is this a result of man’s failure to uphold the balance?
