@georgia same as women's day

We don't need so many holidays
@mewmew
yeah but womens' day calls attention to real issues. violence against women is a worldwide epidemic. "mens' day" is no different from "hetero pride" and "white lives matter".

and wtf do you have against arbitrary holidays they're so cool. i mean pancake day how rad is that.
@georgia there's more violence against men than against women - seems like we should have a few men's days

And don't even get me started on circumcisions
@mewmew
yeah but violence against men is committed by other men.
@mewmew
its not used to control and oppress men because of their sex. its done for class and social reasons.
@georgia I don't think that's so relevant - try telling a murder victim that their murder wasn't a problem because the murderer wasn't trying to oppress them

@mewmew @georgia

Besides, if we’re going to go down the road of “We need XYZ day to raise awareness”, what about raising awareness of men who are abused by their partners and worse?

Not saying that women being abused don’t matter or aren’t as important, quiet the opposite in fact, just that most people are well aware that happens while lots and lots are either unaware it happens to men as well, and frequently, or outright deny it does

@wolfie @mewmew @georgia

that's what it is, a blanket day for men to get support and resources for what they're going through

but feminists literally cannot have anything that's not about them without claiming it as a jokey derivative and men not having any problems + anti sjws being bitches about it
@kazuma @wolfie @georgia yeah seriously

Look it up, most of the stuff is about male suicide, male violence, and get this, toxic masculinity.

It's not "let's hate on women" day, it's "men have serious problems that need to be discussed too" day.
@mewmew @kazuma @georgia @wolfie its realyl gross when people do sexism against men and just LIE and say it's ok

@static @mewmew @georgia @kazuma Don’t you know that sexism against men is by definition impossible? :akkothink:

@wolfie @meowski @georgia @kazuma @mewmew And the best man treat his wives like they're queens or like his mother. A mans purpose is not to bully, degrade, and dominate his wives given to him by Allah but to protect and sustain the weaker sex from the evils and cruelty of this world
@meowski @georgia @kazuma @mewmew @wolfie A man may have up to 4 wives if he can support them and love them all equally. But most men even struggle to keep one wife, so this is the common thing
@georgia @kazuma @meowski @mewmew @wolfie undoubtedly haram this is against the natural order of things.
@static
so men can have four wives but women can have no wives? that seems unfair
@kazuma @meowski @mewmew @wolfie
@georgia @kazuma @meowski @mewmew @wolfie Better to overcome your wicked temptation and struggle in this life than burn in hell forever. You can overcome your disease nobody is born wicked.
@georgia @kazuma @meowski @mewmew @wolfie Islam does not teach this, you should ask your white supremacist terrorist forefathers why they promised your men women as rewards for committing genocide against indigeonous peoples. You will never read this teaching in the Quran
@static
lol
"O Prophet! We have made lawful to thee thy wives to whom thou hast paid their dowers; and those whom thy right hand possesses out of the prisoners of war whom Allah has assigned to thee"
Islam allows men to have "temporary marriages" with prisoners of war to rape them.
