Support for violence to resist feminism was highest among adolescent boys (28%), followed closely by adolescent girls (21%).

Perhaps most alarming: roughly 40% of boys aged 13 to 17 agreed that women lie about domestic and sexual violence.

These results raise crucial questions going forward. We don’t yet know how these views have changed over time, whether they are on the rise and what the links are between violent extremism and the negative treatment of women.

    I see. They are douchebags because people observed they are douchebags. That makes sense, if you are a fucking moron. The real test is to determine if me pointing out that you are a moron has actually turned you into one.

    Well, reply so we can see.

      People who are treated like outcasts behave like outcasts. The judgment becomes self-fulfilling.

      The solution to this problem is inclusiveness and socialization, not further judgment and ostracization.

          There’s an old saying: “the child who does not receive the warmth of the village will burn it down to feel warm.”

          The absolute audacity to vilify people/put them on blast constantly (bonus points for single mothers and having worse raising outcomes than single dads e.g.) and then act all high and mightly and demanding they “pull themselves up by their boostraps”.

          It is not any one individual’s responsibility to fix any other particular individual, true.

          Rather, it is the community’s responsibility to care for the community. All of the community.

          If you start declaring some members of the community to be undeserving of care, then you are no better than the fascists.

            I agree with the statement at face value, but add, without a proper support system, its impossible to do the inner work for yourself. We need external support, and we have to try for ourselves.

            The whole, lead a horse to water but you cant make them drink. Dont mean we shouldnt still help em get to the water.

      If you didn’t think I was already a moron why would you call me one? Are you really incapable of seeing how difficult it is for me to engage constructively with your argument while you are constantly interweaving it with personal attacks? I couldn’t ask for a better example of how calling people dumb makes it hard for them to engage with your ideas. Again, no wonder young men with no experience are being entrapped by the far right.
