Mansplaining Statistical Fact (11/7/23)

It has long been known that physical violence and sexual assault affect men at nearly equal rates to women, and in some cases even exceed them. This idea that either ‘women have it harder’ or ‘men have it harder’ is self-centered delusion. The FBI has known for decades, and other studies confirm the same, that between 8 and 40 percent of cases of sexual assault are fake. But some find it difficult to understand what this means, thus turning to the fallacy of claiming that the use of this fact means a person doesn’t believe women are raped. Men and women also have different definitions and handle such assaults differently. Of the nearly half million such cases in the US yearly, this means between 45,000 and 200,000 case are made up. That’s huge. The purpose of this episode is to dispel the myth and bring the sexes into equal balance. How can there be a male dominated society when men spend more time in prison for the same crimes as women, are a majority of the homeless, have far higher rates of diabetes and cancer, are the victims of most violent crime, almost exclusively die in war and on the work force, do worse in school, and die several years younger, often from suicide at a rate four times that of women? Despite this, there is almost nowhere for men to receive help. We think it is socially acceptable for women to demand on average a man be over six feet, with six figures, and a six pack abs, but it’s called toxic for men to prefer a partner at a healthy weight who equally participates in a relationship. Men are success objects and women are sex objects, though there is a natural biological reason for this, as there is for all women to be seeking the top percentile of men and applying that same unrealistic standard to all men. When issues of women’s clothing, rights, etc., are discussed the most common argument used is “it’s her choice” or “it makes me feel good” or “my body my choice” - these are arguments advocating for abuse, cheating, and even rape. They also advocate for the exchange of self-respect for a sort of pseudo-patriarchy wherein women walk around almost naked in the name of freedom. Considering women control the codes to sex, it is on women to stop hook-up culture. Women don’t owe men sex for dinner, but men don’t owe women paid dinners - 30% of women use men for free food. This lack of respect, double standard expectation, and entitlement has destroyed relationships between men and women, especially for young people.
