Hurricane Sandy provides a classic case of male disposablity. Some cops in Staten Island are demanding that a man be prosecuted. For what? He refused to come out of his house when a crazed woman was banging at his back door demanding that he come out and help her & her kids during the storm, or let them into his house. The kids drowned. She was a complete stranger to him and they were not his kids. He probably thought he was getting set up for a robbery or false rape/child molestation charges.

Hard to give a decisive undoubtful answer anyway since women are allowed to mistrust/mistreat men according to their past "experience" with other men, I dont see why men should not be allowed to do the same.

If I see a woman with her boobs almost out of her t-shirt coming inside an elevator I would consider to use the stairs considering what happened in past in similar conditions (see those harassment bvllsh1t).

Regarding this man well we have a clear case of ignoring an emergency situation but at the same time given the condition of no law or rules he could have also considered the option of a set-up for a robbery...its not the first time that women are more than happy to use their "weak status" to open the way to their thug boyfriends.

If it was me to chose I would not punish that man, he owned her anything nor was responsible of her condition plus most importantly he had a reason to be concerned about his physical integrity.
But as I said its not black or white so hard to move toward a side surely.

that is stupid beyond belief. i mean the thread.

why do you think its stupid?

 

[Boilermaker]

oh please ....

This is about feminism and disposable male now?

I bet you guys will make it about feminazis, even when the zookeeper rapes a zebra.

 

[flashpoint]

why do you think its stupid?

a woman has lost her children because some knucklehead was too much of an ahole to open the door. the question aside in what kind of a world you guys are living over the sea, that this could be in any way considered as acceptable. how the fock is feminism to be blamed for that? how in heaven or hell can anyone turn this tragedy into a manifesto against women? that is just focked up and again utterly stupid.

While her video has merit, yours is a poor example of male disposability. Yes, he wasn't obligated to open his door to a stranger and no he shouldn't be arrested, but I don't see this as disposability. Opening a door and letting someone in is not the same as risking your life or being expected to die for this woman and her children.

 

[Burroughs]

its new york you don't just open doors for people you don't know :crackup: in fvcking staten island?!? People are robbed and killed everyday for much less.

I wonder if a woman would be shamed and arrested for not opening her doors for a man in need...mmmmmmm me thinks not

if you need 'examples' of male disposability you are just too dumb to be alive.

And if you as men need essays upon essays to come to this conclusion...well have a nice life :crackup:

I understand why this happens, disaster strikes men turn instantly to white knighting as a means to puff their egos...but this precisely the time to examine the cogs of society.

Where is/are the kids' father(s)?

You guys may not know this, because you may not have been to the third world (everyday is similar to New York amid a natural disaster) but a woman crying for help to strangers is all too often a setup to get the good but naive man robbed and killed. It's unfortunate in this case, but it's not really that man's fault.

 

[Boilermaker]

no, no of course , it's not that man's fault. Entirely the original father's fault. But wait, even the original father is not guilty because he was probably wooed by

the b!tch who was up to some scheme to rob the latter guy. The b!tch deserved to die after all, eh mate?

I agree, he dodged a good one, Jitter.

LOL. Haha You mad bro? You sound like your mad. Bad example is bad bro.

bad? says who. You..who are you :crackup:

you're the only one mad

 

[Warrior74]

Yaaah. You mad. LOOOL.

 

[Burroughs]

you're the only 'mad' brah

the rest of us are trying to advance ourselves

 

[sodbuster]

I suppose some of you guys would listen to a feminist berate you all week on the cruise ship...and then give her YOUR seat on the life boat. My Sons get mine... your feminist azz can drown

For some reason, you're getting pretty snarky this week, dear Boilermaker, like a women's studies graduate. It doesn't suit your style.

Dear Burroughs,
This has nothing to do with feminism....It is just another sad reflection on the modern days when so many see life as a giant TV screen....If I counted the number of times I have helped Women out,I would run out of fingers and toes...This year,a kerb crawler harassing a young Lady walking home at midnight...Only a fortnight ago a young woman broken down,with kids and a flat tyre....Times like this,maybe it isn't so silly to ask "What would Clint Eastwood do?".

 

[amoka]

Is this what sosuave has come too? Someone's children are dead because some guy refused to assist her and now it becomes a case of "man vs woman"? I do not agree the man should be prosecuted for his callous behavior but it sickens me to know how some of you turn this tragic case into "what if it was a woman...." Common, grow some pairs and stop condoning these sort of behaviors in our society.

People risk their lives daily trying to help strangers. Few days ago, a man jumped in front of a moving train to save a life of a woman who fell in the train track. He knew his life was at risk by jumping yet he did. By your standard, this man must have been a fool since he is risking his life trying to save someone's life and knew of the possible dangers. Where is the compassion?

Lately, I have noticed nonsense threads such as this and host of others ranging from politics to race in sosuave and do not believe they belong the forum. I understand moderators have tremendous amount of work on their hands but it will be good to screen posts such as this every now and then to avoid diluting the forum. Posts such as this offers nothing useful for people on their quest of improving themselves. If you think helping someone, a man or a woman in a time of need, in any ways or form is a sign of a weakness, then you have a bigger problem.

I think I need to clarify what is reprehensible here....the man made a decision to secure his house rather than aid a stranger he found to be questionable. In New York such situations regularly result in robbery and murder...remember NYC has 2 murders per day on average...strangers are no joke

Now the police want him prosecuted for not aiding a stranger who could very well have robbed or killed him

Its this prosecution that is the symptom of male disposability and the feminist double standard. That men are forever obligated to put their lives in danger for women....even strangers. NONSENSE.

Its the same white knight faggotry that made the media chastise those men that did not jump in front of bullets during the dark knight tragedy

"chivalry is dead and women killed it...." Dave Chappelle

Women want equality they got it...I will help females in my family...but if you are a female stranger...I am not obligated to lift a finger to help you if I feel I may be in danger myself.

Dear Burroughs,
This has nothing to do with feminism...

On the contrary, Senior, it has everything to do with feminism. Men's instinct is to protect women and children. What do you think happened between your time and ours that caused men to switch that instinct off?
