More men are raped in the US than women, figures on prison assaults reveal...

24. My problem is about the same as if there were a "Whites group" on DU

while in practice it could be inoffensively about white people, whatever that would mean, in theory it could be inoffensive.

but that's not what would happen. you'd get a bunch of disaffected white people who feel victimized by a multicultural society that as white people, they have more privilege within than any other racial group. and we'd have confederate flags and the like, because it would just be a gathering for ignorant notions about who is really a victim due to their racial background.

and so it is with the Men's group. read this group, or this group's most frequent contributors and you get the false impression that men are the victim of women in society. that men not women are oppressed. that the ACA victimizes men because congress (a vast majority of men) passed a law that specifically harms and neglects men and a president (also a man) agreed with this.

it's ridiculous.

so yes, that's my issue with the group, not its existence, just that it becomes a haven for self-delusion and a place where not caring about the civil rights of any group one is not in is enabled.
