They’re saying guys who do this aren’t real men. They’re just immature boys who don’t deserve to be acknowledged as adults

I understand that the point is to emasculate them, but it also writes it off as “oh they’re just boys, they don’t know any better.” it implies they deserve a lower standard, which is not true. they are grown adults and should act like it, which means the behavior is inexcusable.

the behavior is inexcusable but it's not a man's behavior. they're adult males, but they're not men. it's not OK behavior but a man wouldn't act that way.

idk man there comes a point where begging for the distinction starts sounding like a “not all men.” sure okay but it’s enough of them that it’s an issue. we should all focus more on correcting the behavior and holding people accountable than just trying to separate ourselves from the problem/absolve ourselves of responsibility

i get your point/intention but it is actually a diversion from the actual problem and who is actually being victimized here you know.

and yet men do act that way. if you see a man being misogynistic and call him a boy then you deny the reality that men are commonly misogynistic. misogyny is not childish. it is prejudiced and hateful.

Yes they are legal adults but being a man isn’t defined by age but by maturity. If they are gonna act like a child (even as an adult) then I’m gonna call them a child.

The process of solving a problem starts with identifying the problem, separating it from what isn’t the problem and then solving that problem (when possible). Trust me, a real man isn’t gonna call a woman a whore for rejecting them, that being said most “men” are taken due to this simple fact.

again, misogyny isn’t childish. it’s hateful and prejudiced and a result of lifelong conditioning and apathy. and this is getting to No True Irishman territory. they’re not considered “boys” by anyone just because you think they “don’t count as real men.”

and again, misogyny doesn’t result from immaturity. I realize you want to insult them, but there’s subtext to the words you say. you have to appreciate the underlying message you’re sending.

alright so then let me at least ask you, and be honest. if/when you do hear your homie call a woman a whore or some other derogatory name, do you call him out on it? or is this special pleading only applicable when someone identifies behaviors a lot of men partake in

i wouldn't call them boys. they're not. BUT they're not men either. the same way you don't want people to call them bits because they're not, they're also not actually men. men is a social construct, they're just adult males who don't know how to act. but they're neither men nor boys.

I get your point, but that changes nothing. they perceive themselves as men and everyone else perceives them as men, and they continue seeing them as men even after they’ve been misogynistic. currency is also a construct but a dollar isn’t any less valuable when you point out that it’s just a piece of paper. it’s still effectively a dollar and they’re still effectively men. calling them boys detracts from the fact that they are still perceived as men.

There are just some dudes who display immature reactions like that… I guess to protect their fragile tiny little egos.

But it also reinforces the idea that this is the standard which helps a cycle portrayed in society for men to be measured on. That’s the problem

i literally said i wouldn't call them boys either. how bout monsters? men don't do that shit. and currency is not even relatable to gender cmon now. that would be like saying scribbling a 5 on a 1 makes it a 5. they're different. also dollar bills don't have behavior. that's the driving factor behind gender. behave like a man, you're a man. don't? you're not a man.

if you continue that currency logic then by your standards trans men aren't men and trans women aren't women. if i write $5 on a $1 is it a $5 bill? no. but if someone transitions they become that gender. why? BEHAVIOUR. so if you don't behave like a man, i won't call you a man.

how is it reinforcing the standard to call them what they are (misogynistic men) instead of calling them boys, that logic doesn’t make sense

I’m literally trans and I’m telling you they’re both social constructs 😭 they don’t have to work the exact same to fall into that category it’s that simple
