So a few days ago TheAmazingAtheist uploaded an interesting video about how on the show, The Talk, which is basically a show of women talking about their lives and society and whatnot, that they were making fun of the case in Orange County, CA where a woman drugged her estranged husband and cut off his penis, and then placed it in the disposal and turned it on.
Sharon Osbourne, the wife of Ozzy Osbourne, made fun of the situation that the guy "kinda deserve it" and they all broke out laughing despite the fact she wasn't very clear of the circumstances in the case, but TheAmazingAtheist makes an interesting point about it. The point is that if it were reversed, where a man would cut off a lady's breasts off, even if it were under the same circumstances as the Orange County case, it would be treated much worse and the suspect would be treated as total scum.
You see many comments on his video like this:
" If a man gets raped he is not taken seriously and told he wanted it.
-%uFEFF If a man gets beaten by a woman he is a pussy and will not be taken seriously.
- If a man's penis gets cut off, its probably deserved and reason to celebrate.
- If a man shouts at a woman, its verbal abuse, the other way around does not exist.
- If a woman mentally abuses a man and manipulate him, the man is considered weak."
Do you believe what the women thought of the case on The Talk was right, or just goes against equality? Do you believe in feminism?

There have been several threads since the "penis cut incident on tv" and in all those threads the vid of the amazingatheist has been linked already.... why make another topic about it?

'Rape her' is pretty much a standard reply about any advise asked on this BBS, so really, who are we to intervene and tell those women they are wrong about laughing with these matters.

In modern everyday life there no longer exist such things as sexism or racism.
Generally
Also feminism is bullshit
Also affirmative action is bullshit

I do believe in equality, however I hate it when women say they want equality then complain when they get it, like it's only equality when it's to their advantage. Hypocrisy, basically. This pictureillustrates my point.

Correction: Sexism or racism against women or races other than Caucasian. However, white males are automatically nothing but racist, sexist pigs in our society.

omg this is the only double standard in the history of men vs women right?!?!?!
Get over it. Men laugh at women, women laugh at men. Men get favoured over certain stuff, women get favoured over certain stuff.

No. Given the exact same circumstances where the only change is that a man mutilated a woman's genitals, society would react identically. Why? Because in order for the scenarios to be identical, there would have to be thousands of years of culturally endorsed suppression of men at the hands of women, an extensive history of women raping men in numbers that DOMINATE the reverse, and the concept of a man mutilating a woman's genitals would have to be exactly as relatively novel to society as we find the notion of a woman mutilating a man's genitals.
So. Do you see why it is not an affront to men that a few women somewhere could find a way to poke fun at the story? And why it IS an affront to women if men were to laugh at a similar (but not identically comparable) situation with the roles reversed?

Are You Stupid?
If you are a man in this country, and because of some crazy circumstance it so happens that you are found in the morning with your penis chopped off because your partner has lost her temper, then, quite simply, you will be laughed at.
Comedians will make jokes about you and some of the press will say that you probably deserved it.
If you are a man, then you are pretty much worthless.
Most people wouldn't laugh at an animal that had such an experience. However, so low are you considered to be in the scheme of things, so worthless and hated, that severely mutilating you is a joke.
It doesn't matter how 'good' you've been throughout your life. It doesn't matter if you're the type of man who has always done his best and tried to do the right thing.
None of that matters.
If you're a man, then, quite simply, you are so low that people will laugh when your penis is cut off.
AND THIS FACT ALONE SHOULD TELL YOU SOMETHING RATHER PROFOUND!!
And if it doesn't, then, quite simply, you must be stupid.
Well, this is the kind of world that you live in today.

LOL! this attitude alone reveals a cold callous uncaring that humanity has concerning the well-being of males.

This doesn't represent all of feminism. There are just as many double standards favoring men as there are favoring women; this happens to be one of the one's favoring women. Society has expectations for everyone, roles that everyone is expected to fall into lest they experience social backlash.
I don't believe that having equal amount of double standards for each gender makes the world equal. That would oversimplifying something that shouldn't be. It's just that there is more than one kind of inequality and they're all just as wrong, but they're not synonymous and they're don't cancel out like wavelengths do.

Well, obviously, women are pure evil, why do you think I'm bi? Most women anyway. I don't hate all women, but 70% of them are stuck up bitches.
