“It’s impossible to not weigh 400 pounds because the food companies told me to eat a lot” is not the winning argument that many Fat Acceptance types think it is.

Getting massively hotter over the course of four years has really decreased my opinion of people, even as I reap the boons and benefits of being treated better and more respectfully everywhere. It just shouldn’t matter so much, especially in contexts where it’s completely irrelevant.

But it does. I like and hate that I can stroll into a place and get what I want so much more easily now. A lot of women act like giggly messes around me and help me even when I don’t want to be helped. At the same time, men treat me less like an annoyance and more like someone to kowtow to.

It’s not really right or fair, though. And it bothers me even as I benefit from it.

What’s the worst thing about being a man?

I haven’t read any of the responses, but the worst part of being a man is that you are treated like a predator and dangerous by everyone. It’s impossible to have a normal interaction with anyone — particularly women — because you are seen as a default threat, and not worthy of respect or consideration because of that. Your every action is suspect, and your motivation for doing anything is questioned.

Women think they get too much attention? Try being given so much negative attention all the time. Society treats men as completely disposable and as a huge threat by default, no matter what you do or how you try to get around it.

Modern libs be like: I’m sex positive! Positive it’s terrifying and a power imbalance is definitely involved and always a dealbreaker and should be illegal!

RT 🔒:

when you think about it all het sex should be illegal due to the attractiveness gap between men and women. men can't meaningfully consent to sex in the presence of a hot naked girl because of this power differential

Yes I know this is satire, but it gets at an important point: there are multiple types of power — not just the frankly absurd PMC lib notion of “power” — and being sexually desirable is indeed a huge one. One of the issues is that the only type of power the PMC libs can imagine is related to “will this further my career” and/or “what will HR think,” so anything else is utterly foreign to their apperception of life and how it works.

Deadlifted this morning, awww yeah (my favorite).
