“Women on base, you better be careful. Port calls, women in Asia, you better be careful. Because these guys are going to be wild animals and you better watch out.”

Trying to blame this on all men (not sure why gay men are exempted?) instead of on Republicans is a great way to alienate a large portion of potential allies.
Next time a woman says something stupid on Fox News it is time to blame all women?
lmao you think Democrats aren’t rapists too? Brother they did a fucking holocaust, you think they draw the line at rape? They’re just quieter about it.
This is absolutely an “all men” problem in terms of the culture men create and rarely speak out against, not literally in terms of each individual man.
When the Democrats are in power, they block the Epstein files. When the Republicans are in power, they block the Epstein files.
When did dems block the epstein files? They were in open cases so couldn’t be released.
Maybe voting them out of power was a dumb decision
That is such a flimsy excuse.
Following the law is an excuse?
“I was only following the law” - Person who makes the law
So you want them to allow releasing evidence from ongoing cases? Or do you want them to just do it selectively? Aka biased?
Epstein’s case was covered up by many people for many years. Stop pretending like it’s just from conservatives.
Fair point but you will have to then move the line to “all Americans” instead of “all men”.
If all men normalized this the comment section would look wildly different.
Have you seen some of the comment sections on Lemmy?
We’ve got men musing about how “naturally consensual” 14 year olds are with absolutely no moderation stepping in.
I have no idea what you are talking about but this sounds like wild interpolation.
You can pretend like this isn’t a common thing amongst a wide swath of men, but you’re wrong. It’s not just Americans.
There’s a lot of sexist and misogynistic views that are not only allowed to be kept up on Lemmy, but are highly upvoted and supported by the men here.
Some men do normalize this and the comment sections do reflect it often.
Can you point me the commenter saying that what the Fox News host said is awesome?
I could point out the comments calling a rape victim hot in the womensstuff community if you’d like.
I just posted an article you might find illuminating. Groups of men collaborating online to masturbate and cum on women in public to humiliate them.
They use online forums to bolster and lift each other up, encouraging each other to violate women for their own satisfaction and then share with the group.
You said on Lemmy. Using an obscure internet forum to push the narrative that all men support it is ridiculous.
Many women (mothers, girlfriends, sisters, classmates) also play a major role in creating the warped masculinity that Watters is fantasizing about.
So if you’re looking for blame, it goes all over the place, including on closeted queer men like Lindsay Graham and Pete Hegseth and Jesse Waters and Andrew Tate and Ben Shapiro.
If you’ve heard someone taking about Rape Culture and thought to yourself “I don’t even know what that is”, you can always watch that video again and notice how all three other people on set calmly wait for him to finish, including the woman seated directly to his right.
My dad mom is great example. My sister went to her for help with dad’s abuse and basically said just take it and pray for him. Just kept enabling it with no consequence.
He was warning women to watch out, gay men usually aren’t a risk to women, even gay men with lots of testosterone.
