If everyone's down for it we can do that! I don't really care if people reveal what songs they picked after it's up, I just wanted the mixtape to be a little surprise for everyone listening And y'all should feel free to discuss the mixtape once you download and listen!

That's pretty much what I've been trying to get across Allow others to speak, listen to them, show support then discuss the issues as a whole. The only time I'm against someone else jumping in is when they're trying to take away from the issue or belittle someone. Other than that feel free to discuss the issues as a hole. I still think listening to others experiences is important because it gives us a better view of the problem as a whole and how we can fight against those issues. There's a lot of perspectives people won't see until they're discussed on a smaller level. I wasn't aware of a lot of the issues men face that I listed in my rant until I listened to what men had to say. They aren't things I will ever personally face even though they're directly linked to issues I do face. Same as me discussing issues women face, there's specific things men will never face (like period shaming) that can be directly linked to things like male aggression and emotions. Perspective is pretty much what I'm fighting for here. Listen, learn and connect.

We're agreeing here - the only difference I'm making is that when a person or a group of people discusses their specific issues it's not okay to jump in a shout "what about us" Thought it's important to discuss everyone, it's often used in a way to silence a group they don't agree with. (anti-feminist do this a lot and it's something I've experienced over the years) I think it's great to bring in discussions within discussions as long as people aren't trying to take away from what others are saying; ie; when men discuss rape women should never jump in and say "it happens to us more often" They should use it as a time to show support and discuss how it all out of issues are the same issue and one is never more important than the other

I agree with this - but I think in order to have these discussion as a hole we do have to break them down into smaller categories. We have to address specific issues one by one while discussing how they play into the problem of rape as a hole. We shouldn't silence people, especially victims, when they're discussing things they've faced. I actually say this morning when a guy was talking about being raped some idiot jumped in and said "Women are raped more often" and that's shit that I don't stand by. Yes, it happens to women more, but it's no one's right to cut off a victim to discuss themselves. We have to hear each others stories and learn about the issues we don't even realize exist because it doesn't happen to us. I think this can be applied to every issues. With the lgbt+ community, we could say "all lgbt discrimination is bad let's fix it!" which yeah, that's true, but we can't really fix it until we understand specific issues each section of the community faces. Being gay and being trans might mean you face similar discrimination, doesn't mean that gay men understand trans issues or how people within the lgbt community discriminate against trans folks. One isn't more important than the other, but to discuss the issues as a hole we have to hear all sides. Same with rape victims - women aren't typically told they should've enjoyed their rape because the man was hot and men aren't typically told they brought it onto themselves because of their clothing choices. Addressing issues one by one without silencing others and connecting how specific gender norms, stereotypes and double standards effect certain groups more than others is the only way to really have this discussion imo.

Thank you for your input You're one of the maybe 5 straight guys I've bumped into on forums the past decade or so and this is a topic I've always been curious about but never really had the opprotunity to discuss. The sociology of it all intrigues me, comparing stigmas between genders and sexualities, being involved in various aspects of stereotypes within falling into a specific one. There's a lot I could discuss about misogyny within the gay community and how society ignores it because they're "just one of the girls" - but that's another rant within itself. Btw, we both know I top that list

I think women typically have a closer bond to their child since they're carrying then around for 9 months But if she doesn't want to have kids or she doesn't feel a bond with her own kids then everyone looks at her like she's this awful person because it's expected that all women should want kids. But when guys aren't interested in having children or aren't close to their children no one really cares because absent fathers are seen as typical I just want people to be respected regardless of how they feel about being a parent and for us to destroy the stigmas behind it

Sorry if this is intruding, but are you straight? I'd love to hear a straight male perspective on how gender rolls effect then when they're active within things that typically viewed as for women//gay men - ie, being a pop music fan on a forum is typically viewed as something a gay man would participate in. Are there challenged to not fitting into heterosexual or homosexual stereotypes? (@Cypher read the whole page since I'm wanting your opinion too)

I'd like to state that not all men 'think with their dicks' and it's a learned behavior, not something they're born doing. Women are objectified in almost all shows and movies, they're shown as weak, there to please men, and are often viewed as a prize, not a person. Boys also see women, including their mothers, objectified when just going to the store. That's something boys and girls both learn at a young age and I think if we stopped putting those tropes into society then it would change a lot of the "men only think about sex" way of thinking. Women are taught from a young age that their job is to nurture while boys are taught they're supposed to work an be away from home. This is why baby dolls are targeted towards girls and tool kits and tractors are targeted towards boys. I read a study a while back that said boys who grew up playing with dolls were more involved in their children's lives than women who played with trucks and tools. That's further proof this behavior in taught, not genetic. I think your post is contributing to male stereotypes in a way that my 'rant' was challenging them. Yes, those are common amongst men, but because that's what they're taught from birth. If we didn't have this this idea that toys were gendered or there's gender specific parenting roles then these stereotypes wouldn't really exist. I also hope your conclusion was sarcastic. Yes, women can do whatever men can, but men aren't only to get us pregnant... if that were the case what is the purpose of gay men? What about women who don't want children?

Today's topic is Male Rights Activism... (This features a very heteronormative view of men and women. Your definition of men, women and gender rolls may vary, but the purpose of this is to challenge a specific set of ideas) I fully believe there needs to be a discussion about the issues men face. Male rape victims are shamed on a level that we don't talk about enough. Rather than be shamed for their clothing choices, men are told they should've enjoyed their rape it if the woman was 'hot' - even if she wasn't then you hear shit like "I mean... you at least got to cum" There's this idea that if he cums then he liked it. Men cum because of friction, not enjoyment. When a female teacher molests a male student and he comes forward about it people (virtually always other men) say things like "why'd you rat her out?" "dude you were so fucking lucky" "why did you ruin it?" and other fuckerious things. (fuckerious is a word right? it is now) There's also issues with our child custody laws that favors women the majority of the time. Custody battles should be viewed case by case. If they child will be in better care with their father, then that's where they need to be. Some women just shouldn't be mothers, or at least not have custody for a variety of reasons. There's also an issue with men settling during these cases out of fear of destroying their family. Men aren't supposed to know how to properly take care of themselves. Laundry? Cleaning? Cooking? They're all viewed as a 'woman's job' -men aren't supposed to do those things! They're not supposed to know how to properly care for their children. Diapers? "Babysitting" their children? Nope, they can't possible know how to do that! There's unrealistic expectations of body images. Women will shame men for not having a perfect body. They're shamed for not being hairy or for being too hairy. They need to be muscular and strong, but not too muscular or it's off putting. They're expected to provide for their families. If they can't they aren't "real men" If a woman, specifically his partner, makes more than him he's supposed to feel emasculated. Men are expected to have the ability to fix everything. If they can't then they aren't a "real man" They need to have jobs that are 'manly' They need to be in charge. They're supposed to have the world on their shoulders without showing emotion. They're not supposed to like certain colors or movies or music because they aren't 'manly' They aren't supposed to show any emotions, besides anger. Crying? Naw that makes him a 'pussy' There's also a bit of homophobia with discussing what a "real man" is. If he can cook, clean, wears pink, likes pop music, then he's 'gay' - which is, for some reason, the worse thing you can call a man... well, besides telling him he's acting like a woman. -_- Circumcision, birth control for men, negative portrayals in the media as fathers being nothing but dumb and aggressive, paternity leave, adoption, kink shaming, being shamed when they're abused by women, having their rapes and abused mocked by men, woman and the media... all of these are important issues that need to be discussed. BUT the issue is that the only time they're ever really discussed is when it's an attempt to undermine feminism. When women discuss rape, street harassment, abuse, etc. it's for us to discuss things that happen to us. We know that men experience these things too, and we want to prevent them from happening. Us discussing the issues we face isn't erasing any issues that men face. We aren't saying men don't experience them. It's just our time to discuss things. We want to discuss the issues men face and bring awareness to them, but we also feel it's something that only men can fully discuss with one another. I can sit here and state the issues and throw around statistics but I'm never going to understand what it's like to be a man. Men need to have these discussions with each other. Men need to show solidarity with one another. Men need to discuss how misogyny and homophobia play into male stereotypes and why they fear things that are seen as feminine or gay. Our issues are so intertwined in one another that we fail to see that this isn't a "us vs you" battle. These discussions NEED to happen. We all need to address these issues. Focusing on one issue at a time doesn't mean you're silencing other issues. But if you're only going to discuss them when women are talking, then you don't actually care about those issues. I want to see men take action, true action. Start a support group for male survivors. Shame people who tell men they should've liked it. Fight against unfair laws. Do something, ANYTHING to stand with your brothers. BUT do so without shaming or silencing women. Bringing us down to lift yourself up isn't solving anything! Considering most of the members of this forum are men, I'd love to know how you feel about this. What struggles have you personally faced due to male stereotypes? Do you think sexuality makes your struggles different than what I've mentioned? Do these gender norms exist in the gay community? How do you deal with those vs heteronormative norms?

This is a thread where I'll go on rants because ranting is my favorite hobby These rants will most likely be long as fuck. Feel free to discuss the things I rant about and suggest topics for my next rant.

He already did

I don't know why y'all are saying this is 'racist' when a white person told her this It's an ass hole thing to do, but people say shit like this all the time. Lil Wayne, Drake and Nicki "ruined rap" Nickelback "ruined rock" Black Veil Brides "ruined metal" Good Charlotte "ruined punk" Kesha "ruined pop" Eminem doesn't get criticized as much because he's talented, writes his own lyrics and has earned his respect with fans and rappers. Iggy is nowhere near that level yet. When she starts writing her own lyrics and becomes more talented maybe people will like her more.

The ABC's Of Death series (the stories are hit or miss, but Zygote is fantastic ) Cabin In The Woods (great concept, poorly acted) The Conjuring series Dead End The Devil's Rejects Evil Dead series (Army Of Darkness >>>>>) Green Inferno (It was good, but way over hyped and not as gory as I expected) The Hills Have Eyes House Of 1000 Corpses Let Me In Let The Right One In The Living Dead Girl Nightbreed Pontypool Sacrament The The Taking of Deborah Logan Would You Rather

I think it's because sex and drugs sell so they're going to stick to the same shit and make a living. Do you think Nicki is going to leave behind all of her fame, fortune and hit songs about hoes and asses to make an album based solely on the social struggles of being a black woman?

But... do I pick them randomly? Alphabetically? By genre? There's so many comes it's causing me anxiety. If I were to go with pop albums, it would almost all mention god, if I were to go with metal then it most likely wouldn't

I'm not her biggest fan and I have a whole separate opinion about white rappers being praised for their 'unique abilities' while black rappers are targeted and oppressed for their 'skills'... but Iggy didn't ruin hip hop. Corporations in the early 90's run by old washed up white music moguls giving false hope to young black men by forcing them into fucked up record deals and having no respect for their craft and a desire to silent their voices while profiting off of their struggles is what ruined hip hop. Hip hop was purposefully turned from black folks finally having a voice and expressing their fears and aggressions towards a society that, as the time, was VERY much against their success and existence to an overly sexual and violent genre designed to give black folks a chance to succeed while also perpetuating negative stereotypes as a way to counterbalance their cycle of oppression. If the early rappers made their own companies instead of depending on people who didn't understand nor respect their message, the genre would be completely different today.... and that's something Iggy had nothing to do with.

This sounds like a fun thing to do, but I have 100s of albums and this would send me into a satanic music craze

Why didn't you list your former name; MTrainorStan2004? Hi, I'm trayertrash. My name has always been trayertrash. I won't change it because it's too iconic

My fat ass is about to start my period, so I'm hungrier than normal During the day I just ate apples and pickles all day Dinner is zucchini latkes I couldn't make up what I wanted with it so one of them has mayo, one has sriracha mustard, and the two on the side have mushroom gravy. Then there's 2 rolls and some of the banana ice cream with flax seeds on top

I just use a whole portabella mushroom, cut off the stem and cook it in a little bit of olive oil until it's soft. If I'm making it a bit spicy then I'll let it marinate in the sauce that for about an hour (I typically use sriracha) otherwise I just put a bit of salt and pepper or italian seasoning
