Most deluded thing I have ever read. Don't even know where to start with it. I wish you could be a woman too.
Random boners...wet dreams...women's vaginas are considered beautiful!? Since when? They are mocked, treated with disgust, women get surgery on their labia, have to remove hair, get told they smell of fish...women can opt out of parenthood (some women are forced to keep children conceived of rape as our reproductive rights are stripped away. The trauma of abortion or adoption is lifelong, or consider forced pregnancy in marriage).
Women found not guilty in the court of public opinion?! (women are pilloried and scrutinised EVERYWHERE, we have recently had a suicide of a female celebrity unfairly decimated by the media).
It's illegal to have genitals mutilated as a baby?!(1 girl is forced to undergo EXTREME genital mutilation every 11 seconds, included having her clitoris cut out with an unsterilised boxcutter with no anaesthesia in many countries, including in the West and the barbaric practice is spreading).
Women free to express emotions?! If women express emotions we are called hysterical, unstable, neurotic, clingy and much worse. Or we get diagnosed with a mental illness more frequently.
Our health issues being given more funding LOLOLOL, try even attempting to be diagnosed with endometriosis or getting a hysterectomy, women's pain is frequently minimised. Try having medications not work for you or seatbelts not be designed for you because the male body is seen as the default. Socially unacceptable for partners to hit you...domestic abuse has been legalised in Russia. In the UK, 2 women a week die of DV and the rates in the U.S are horrific. No one seems to give a fuck tbh. On domestic abuse websites it is acknowledged most domestic abuse from females stops at a slap (doesn't make it right, but put it in perspective with the LEADING CAUSE OF PREMATURE DEATH IN WOMEN WORLDWIDE BEING MURDER BY MEN). False rape claims against men are about 3 percent of rape cases and this is actually higher than the conviction rate for real rapes! I am just going to stop there. Seriously. What I have said isn't even feminism, it's just reality. Go on the WHO website and read the truth. Why did I click this damn thread.
You seem to have missed that I was specifically referring to the gynocentric West and not third world shit holes. I would gladly swap genders with you if I could.
1. I've done a lot of research for myself and the general consensus seems to be that not even women like the way male genitalia look like. "Glorified sausages". While men tend to like the way vulvas look like. At least women have any reproductive rights at all. Men have none and no options to opt out of parenthood either. We have to live with whatever decision the woman makes.
2. Especially when it comes to domestic violence men aren't taken seriously. Do you know of the Duluth model? Because of it men are assumed to be the perpetrators of domestic violence by default. Yet there are studies which suggest that men are 40% of domestic violence victims by the opposite sex (even in the UK!) and there are barely any domestic violence shelters for men in the West. I hope your eyes have been opened now. The police will not even take a man seriously if he calls them and they might even jail the victim instead, because the word of the woman is held in higher regard than the word of the man.
Even theguardian reported this, despite often being feminist leaning.

Women also serve shorter prison times for the same crimes. Bill Cosby was accused of rape and had his life ruined. Cardi B admitted to drugging and robbing men and even hiring someone to rape a man in the ass. Yet nothing. Her reputation remains unscathed. Men also aren't taken seriously when it comes to rape. Men raped by women are supposed to feel glad and all headlines involving female rapists don't use the word "rape". So yes women are generally never seen as guilty by the court of public opinion and might even be seen as the victims instead. Whenever a woman does something horrible to a man, people immediately ask "What has he done to her?". It's assumed by default that a woman wouldn't do something truly evil, unless the victim has done something evil himself to her.
3. Forced circumcision is a barbaric practice no matter to which gender it's inflicted upon. However you can't deny that in general FGM is far less common and forbidden in far more countries. There might only be a handful of countries where male genital mutilation is forbidden. It's also only ever viewed as mutilation by the public when it comes to girls and not boys. In the West boys have no bodily autonomy, while girls bodily autonomy is sacred and protected.
4. The thing is boys are indoctrinated to never show their emotions and especially not weakness, because men are supposed to be strong. It's arguably far more acceptable for girls to express their emotions and cry in our society. She might even get emotional support. A man however will only be looked down upon and be made fun of. Even crying is viewed as something inherently girly and I can't count the amount of times my father told me to stop "crying like a girl".
5. Women's health issues definitely receive higher funding than men's health issues. For example funding for breast cancer is significantly higher than funding for prostate cancer and this is a fact. Don't you think this is pretty unfair especially considering that women already live 7 years longer on average?
6. It's indeed socially unacceptable for a man to hit a woman, but the reverse isn't true. A man that hits women is viewed like the scum of the Earth and we're being told to never hit a woman ever since we're little boys. Yet nobody bats an eye when a woman hits a man and the man might not even be believed like I mentioned earlier.
7. Bonus argument. Women receive special programs and gender quotas which favor them over men simply for being women, despite the gender pay gap long having been debunked. That's not what you call gender equality aka equal opportunity. That's what you call gender equity aka equal outcome.
