    Two scientists met via Tinder in Antartica and matched to each other when they were a 45 min helicopter ride away from each other .

    ...
    Okay I'm gonna pop off a hot take that I have no intention of defending but it has raised interesting conversation in the past:

    Yes, men are in fact inferior, and I say this not because I particularly like it, but because the way masculinity manifests in mammals is through the y chromosome acting not like a legitimate whole instruction set in itself, but rather more like a "patch" or, to put it in colloquial terms, "DLC": DownLoadable Content does not work without the base game, and the y-chromosome cannot function without an x-chromosome.

    An egg is fertilized XY and the Y is completely non-functional? Congratulations: this clump of cells will develop into a sapient individual whom is intersex but appears entirely feminine.

    An egg is fertilized XY and the X is completely non-functional? This clump of cells will never develop into a person. At most it will be ejected as a miscarriage.

    Male mammals are derivative knockoffs of the default (female) template that exist to perform dangerous functions that enhance the survivability of a population at large at the expense of individual survival and prosperity. They are hormonally predisposed to aggressively occupy, hold, and defend territory, and get killed sacrificially in conflict while the rest of the specimen's family group can either hide or escape to continue the gene line without them.

    And again - I'm describing it like this NOT because I particularly like it or agree with it or think it's ideal! It kinda sucks actually. But accepting this has helped me to better recognize the pitfalls of nature and step around them. I can't even begin to list all the many BRUH MOMENTS I've avoided by realizing internally, "wait a darn minute, is this... DUDE BEHAVIOR? Eew! I don't need this conflict! I'm being argumentative for stupid illogical hormone-driven reasons, so I'm going to stop now, reassess the counter arguments because they might have been right all along, and maybe apologize before I end up going to prison for stabbing someone over a stupid verbal disagreement."

    I invite any and all to wipe the floor with me using facts and evidence though, and maybe I'll learn some cool stuff along the way. But this is the hypothesis I've been running with just fine for years.

    Also, fun fact, birds are kind of the opposite! They have ZZ and ZW hormones where the feminine reproductive caste is the changing variable!

    You're right, it's not always a man, except somehow it's always a man.

    "I'm autism, therefore I'm allowed to be upset that women have feelings"

    Are you also the main character?

    Again, you're ignorant or you hate men if you're declaring all rapists are men.

    Either way, best of luck to you maturing past that as I won't be engaging with you further.

    "I'm woman therefore I'm allowed to be upset that neurodivergent people have feelings."

    Are we having a main character battle? Neurodivergent-man vs Woman-woman?

    Eh, I'd read it, fuck it.

    Because you're sealioning all over this thread. All because, again, a comic dared imply women are scared of men. I also never outright called you a threat, but given these comments you definitely are.

    If it didn't bother you then why did you reply? 🤔

    No no, women are worried about their safety and that upsets you. I don't care what mental issue you have, that doesn't make your feelings more important than women wanting to be safe.

    You really don't get it, or are you just attempting to discredit me and anyone else who deigns to question your authority as "one of the bad ones?"

    Just in case, no, the issue is women treating every man like an auto-rapist just for existing. In fact that is just as misandrist as doing it to black people exclusively is racist, and for a long time all the propaganda about ne--- rape beasts did a good job of hyping up that fear. Now that propaganda has broadened to all men, which is progress I guess but maybe not the kind we need.

    I know, but you seem to be lonely, sad and lost, so i had to try and lend you a shoulder to cry on.
    But i'll respect your space now. Stay strong little buddy.

    All you're saying is women aren't allowed to act in their best interests for their safety because it hurts men's feelings.

    Don't compare systemic racism with bullshit "misandry" because the system racism is the same shit that's also against women too.

    That's why you have women losing rights in the United States. They're getting raped, forced to be pregnant and even carry that bastard rape child to term even if it kills them.

    So excuse me if I say fuck your god-damned man feelings about "boo hoo" I have to work a little bit harder to potentially have a relationship (which you aren't entitled to) because the systems are literally fighting against women.

    Why don't you act like a fucking man and get over it.

    It's sad and lonely when you want to blame women for your loneliness because apparently being decent is too difficult for these so called men.

    You sound like my Uncle Jim if you replaced "women" with "us" and "men" with... well... let's say he calls them "blacks."

    Yes, Uncle Jim, I am indeed saying you have to take the blacks' feelings into account if "acting in your own self interest" means being outwardly racist. Sorry but they actually are people even if a small portion of them seek to victimize others.

    "Act like a man" LMAO case in fucking point, you overly emotional woman. Howboutdat? Two can play that game, I can say dumb inflammatory shit too haha. And yet again I'm not allowed to have feelings or emotions, what else is new? Glad I finally got you to take the mask off.

    (For the record, while my statement above was a subversion of the statement I was replying to, I don't think women are actually overly emotional. Something tells me however you do expect me to actually "man up" and not have feelings, and hopefully my hyperbolic statement is effective in pointing out the issue with that. You have a lot of growth and development to do, I hope you get the help you need.)

    It's so funny you're comparing systematic racism against black people to men having to be less fucking rapey and whiney when they don't get their way.

    And by the way, I am a fuckin man, unlike you, acting like a bitch ass. And until it's no men, it's all men you fucking loser. Go kiss your dad on the lips. 💜
