“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.”
Need to dig through my lemmy comments to find the guy I argued with a billion years ago who claimed providing HRT to trans soldiers was too expensive/complicated.
Just further cementing that rape is a core Republican Christian value.
And then they get blindsided with SA allegations and cry the world isn’t fair
Jesus Christ.
These guys never heard of him
The Pedo Party is currently scheming to get women out of sports so getting women out of the military is probably also on the list.
Just fuck off already. We are so tired of this bullshit…
Tbf no one should be serving and possibly dying as dogs of the pedo-zio empire anyway
but the misogynistic undertone is bullshit obviously
Recognizing the rape culture is a pretty big milestone for Fox.
for fox sake
“women on base, you better watch out”
Straight men are getting more unfuckable every single day, holy shit
My girlfriend is 39 years old, she keeps telling me that she never felt so good around a men he whole life when she’s with me. I keep thinking how sad that is, but at the same time, i don’t like being around men either. I like my friends, but at work, as soon as some guy i don’t know talks a bunch, i keep wondering at what point is he gonna say something disgusti… Ah there it is. I’m not perfect by any means, but even when i was around 16 and started working, and geard these gross comments from my co workers, i kept thinking: i can’t wait unti i’m an adult and don’t find these comments gross as fuck. Apparently i never became a real man.
Yeah my sister is engaged to a guy who treats her very well and they’re both wildly in love with one another, his family has totally taken her in. It can happen.
I just think most women are doing the math and realizing there aren’t enough guys out there who are worth being married to to go around, and don’t think the gamble is worth it.
The tide is going the wrong direction but there are people out there not getting swept away.
It’s not doing us any favors when they’re creating government policies specifically to push the boulder downhill even faster.
This shook out so many “not all men” comments lol
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?
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.
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.
While I am not going to disagree about your conclusion, I am going to say that lumping this psychopathic rapist in with the average straight man is just about as inaccurate as claiming that he is an average American, or average human.
It takes only a small amount of risk to make an activity a bad choice. If 5% of people who walk through a neighborhood are mugged, anyone with a choice will avoid walking in that neighborhood, even though an overwhelming majority of 95% would be fine.
The calculation around dating is similar. If there is a 3% chance going somewhere private with a guy would result in nonconsensual sexual activity, it’s not worth doing. Not fair for the 97% or whatever of guys who have normal behavior boundaries, but life isn’t fair.
I’m not good at complicated math like addition and subtraction, so when it comes to something like statistics I might as well be throwing pickle slices at a dartboard, so you will probably have to correct me here… But if you have a 3% chance of being attacked by a man, doesn’t that also mean that since you have a 1.5% chance of being attacked by any human? In fact, since there is a non-zero chance of being attacked by a woman, wouldn’t it be accurate to say that you have a greater than 1.5% chance of being attacked by any human?
I’m not really sure that greater than 1.5% feels much safer than 3%.
So I guess what I am saying is that while you and the OP I originally responded to are both correct, that once we start throwing monsters in the pool then people’s desire to go for a swim doesn’t change significantly just because we double the size of the pool.Actually, what I am really saying is that I just really don’t like any grouping that lumps me in with the pedophilic psychopathic rapists currently running the US.
Hey. Just a question. Say there’s a woman and she goes on a theoretical date. She gets tipsy sfter being plied with drinks and allows herself to be convinced to go back to a guy’s apartment. He insists “just to hang out” during that time he coerces her into some kind of act. Could be sex entirely or maybe sex without protection… When she sobers up she starts freaking the fuck out because under sober circumstances she would never of said yes to that.
You tell this story to a bunch of people and what’s the generalized perception of what went wrong? She should never have gone back to his apartment. She should have known better. She participated in a risky behavior and while everyone probably agrees the guy in the situation is absolute scum it remains - this outcome was horrible but culturally predictable.
Also your assessment of whether that three percent is an even split is forgetting a lot of other data. Across the board your chance of encountering any kind of violence is 4-8x more likely to be perpetrated by a man rather than a woman. 1 in 5 women have experienced rape and that number jumps up to 1 in 3 when you broaden the term to sexual assault. About 90% of those reported sexual assaults are perpetrated by men. That means if you are a woman between 20% to 60% of all the other women you know statistically speaking have been sexually predated on by a man at some point and that’s just the ones we know are reported because a lot of people cope with sexual assault by never speaking of it to anyone.
That’s no lightning strike. That poster lowballed you significantly on those statistics .
Women are taught to interact with men the same way you are instructed to interact with city traffic and they aren’t nessisarily wrong to do so. Remember, that 1 in 5 or 1 in 3 is still happening in a world where women are instructed to minimize risk by altering their behaviour. This is under circumstances where women are educated of those dangers and treat men as risks which means they have mitigated some of the attempts. Don’t leave your drink, don’t enter a car of a man you aren’t 100% aware of, meet perspective dates or those you aren’t sure of in public, Don’t be alone where others can’t hear you, Don’t go out after dark, when someone warns you about an individual take that seriously, here’s the code you can tell your bartender to eacape an attempt, let your friends and parents know where you are and are gunna be, here’s the weapons to out in your purse, here’s the red flags to look out for…and they still are 1 in 5 and 1 in 3.
Really well said.
Thank you for saying this, it really helps to see this acknowledged publicly here.
But if you have a 3% chance of being attacked by a man, doesn’t that also mean that since you have a 1.5% chance of being attacked by any human?
That’s not how statistics work, at all.
Men are far more likely to rape or assault women than women are to assault men.
Keep in mind another aspect is that your average man is bigger and stronger than your average women as well.
Na bro theyre 100% correct, at least here in America, us straight men are a fucking catastrophe. And yes im much better than the average one because i don’t condone rape culture, but im part of the minority here.

As a straight guy, I can’t disagree.
When I came out as gay 8 years ago to my mom she promised me I would never have happy and fulfilling marriage. Knowing my mom mostly knows only straight men, I can 100% confirm she is right if I was picking from her pool.
All the men I know are good for you
I don’t even bother dating.
Dating is just dumb, it’s a way for capitalism to profit off lust and nothing more. My friends can’t get a girlfriend and they’re constantly on the dating apps going on multiple dates a week. I try to tell them yeah because the tech bros are creating algorithms to make money off you, not to actually find love and happiness. But they don’t listen they think im crazy but they all think my GF is hot and we never dated wcyd.
I definitely think you’re correct about the algos. I was never shown anyone who id remotely be interested in. I guess that’s common.
I would argue that I don’t agree with Jesse Waters or Pete Hegseth and am still somewhat fuckable, although I understand why you feel that way.
Then you dont have to identify as the average straight man lol
I like big bowls of soup and animal-spirit-affinity-based divination, so if you asked I’d probably go have a bowl of peyote ramen with you.
I think you’re very fuckable good sir.
Jeez, this comment shows the hyprocrisy among u left so much, it’s incredible.
Care to explain what you mean? I’m not sure I understand this retarded comment.
It just shows that when leftist are doing generalizations it apparently is fine, but when ‘evil’ conversatives are doing it, then they are literally Hitler.
Using an ableist slur while trying to defend leftist ideology is not very great
Ablest, but thinking any side talking about rape jokingly is approved. Go fuck off dude, so ignorant and dumb you are.
lol no I think you’re both lobotomites, don’t worry
It’s very hurtful of you to group me together with monsters like this. It would be like me yelling at you for ruining Skype because you’re Estonian. That would be stupid.
They didn’t group you together with monsters, you did by taking offense to it.
It’s my fault for being born a certain gender and orientation? I should just be another gender/orientation? You do realize how shitty it is to say that to someone, right?
No it’s your fault for assuming they were talking about you, unless you are the kind of male they were talking about?
Show me where they said “straight men just like ayyy”.
I’ll wait.
My cousin worked for Skype…
May the sex industry workers stay safe and their finances grow fat.

High testosterone levels (I can only assume they’re not considering anything less than the maximum end of normal to be “healthy”) converts to estrogen because it’s more chemically stable. What is a normal level of testosterone varies from person to person; someone may feel fine at 400 ng/dL and someone else may feel like death at that level. And the person that feels fine at 400 may feel like shit at 1000, especially with the potential of added estrogen from high T. Hormones are complicated and have all kinds of weird downstream effects! If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!
I naturally sat at around 1000 ng/dL before transitioning and felt fine. Then was the fun game of trying to suppress that level since my body apparently runs on high t levels. A few years later and the solution was surgically removing everything that can produce testosterone.
Which is why doctors don’t just randomly do testosterone tests on men who don’t report any problems. If your behavior and health is normal, your T is fine. That is the baseline for any individual human.
Truth. And it’s worse for young guys who do it, because if they end up getting unnecessary exogenous testosterone, it can and often does have a negative effect on libido, performance, and fertility long before age or other conditions manage those downward for them.
Testes that are making enough testosterone for that person to live comfortably should be left alone to do so, because like the adrenals when you fuck with steroids, if testes get testosterone in excess they lay back and think, “Job done,” and then that’s the last you hear from them.
I’m not even joking. That looksmaxxer fool is a poster boy for what can happen when you take testosterone and don’t need it: he’s barely out of his teens and apparently infertile. He may well be impotent too, though I doubt he’s bragging about that part of it.
EDITED TO ADD that it took them a day but now the doctors themselves are coming out of the woodwork to call bullshit (emphasis mine):
Five of six men’s health experts contacted by Reuters for this story said they were puzzled by the announcement on testosterone testing and concerned it may lead to unnecessary – or even harmful – treatment.
“We hear from patients that when you treat low T, things like cognitive alertness and stamina improve. But the evidence is not concrete, and it comes from patients who were treated because they were symptomatic,” said Dr Kevin McVary, a urologist on the medical advisory board of Rugiet, a telehealth platform that provides testosterone supplements.
“Many in our armed forces are young men who are not done having their families,” McVary said. “If you just dole out the testosterone, the testes will shrink. And you can’t reliably count on them coming back.” Other risks include blood thickening, prostate issues, acne, hair loss, breast tissue growth and mood volatility.
I had breasts pre-transition because my body naturally produces very high levels of T. Excessive T is also converted into DHT, unfortunately, which made me stop growing at a younger age and gave me really bad acne. At least my hair never fell out.
isn’t he a predator himself? didn’t he sabotage a woman’s car to make sure she got into his?
I mean, what else could you expect from scum like these people?
I mean, what else could you expect from scum like these people?
Yeah, he let the air out of his current wife’s tires in order to “rescue” her.
I call out these people because beliefs like this should be publicly shamed.
Is that like a story he told people or his wife told people? Was he dumb enough to say that on air thinking it was a clever thing to do?
He says rapist shit like that all the time on air unfortunately.
10000%
These are the pics and examples I show my daughter to teach her what rapists actually look like
… People actually do that shit?
I feel like I’m a boyscout or something, I never have any sick fuck urges like that
Yeah that’s literally how he met his wife, they worked together and he sabotaged her car so she would need help and he was right there to “save” her.
That is psychotic
You feel like you got sexually assaulted by a male pack leader as a child? Damn, that’s rough man.
Edit: y’all can’t downvote away 58,000 sexual assaults. And that’s just the ones who came forward.
This is on X, I won’t go to that cancer place
Same. Use xcancel or take a screenshot. Don’t directly link that Nazi pedo site here.
When I was on methadone, it made my testosterone levels plummet - my already low sex drive (I feel like masturbating sometimes) went to 0 (I no longer feel like masturbating ever), and i got Bob’s bitch tits.
They gave me delatestryl injections. Testosterone, steroids. My arm muscles got really big, I could suddenly do 20 pullups without even feeling winded after, and Fuzzy Bunny noticed strange black hairs growing where there were no hairs before. And I felt like masturbating again.
That’s it. I didn’t become this rabid horn dog willing to go up to women and ask them out. I didn’t really get any extra confidence at all, just physical stamina. There was no change in my perceived “manliness”, and most of these types would have probably still called me a wuss while I was on the steroids.

That’s because you were clearly not making enough of these hormones on your own, so much so that you were already symptomatic. The testosterone (and presumably the steroids as well) you were given just raised you back up to normal levels.
Kegsbreath’s talking about offering it based on numbers alone, and it just doesn’t work like that. Numbers are only one part of the diagnostic considerations. If you take extra testosterone regardless of what the numbers say and you don’t actually need it to bring you to a place of normal functioning, you can damage your hormonal production permanently.
The testosterone (and presumably the steroids as well) you were given just raised you back up to normal levels.
Okay, well then when I quit methadone, my testosterone levels did the opposite, and went off the scale of their chart. I don’t recall exactly what units they were measuring, but I think the max for their range was 35, and I was at 38.
Still no change in manliness.
I’m not the one who downvoted you, and I wouldn’t because you know your own body best. But that one single number really isn’t the measure you think it is, even when it is “off the chart” as in your case.
All you’re really telling me is that quitting methadone 👍 resulted in profound changes to your body chemistry, of which testosterone was only one.
Testosterone doesn’t work alone, but as one of a handful of different substances that act in concert to produce what you refer to as “manliness.” For all you know you were also zinc or B6 deficient, or fat, or you drifted into a diabetic state or were low on precursor hormones, or any number of other things. It’s not just testosterone, and definitely not testosterone as a lab value with no other considerations taken into account.
Which is exactly why Kegsbreath is a fool, and why one hormone out of many should NOT be replaced based on numbers alone.
I have known non-steroid using body builders who take testosterone uptake blockers. It basically forces it to remain in your blood longer than it should so that the level builds up. Some of them had some real anger issues while on it.
I’m wondering what the impact would be on men who receive the extra T without really needing it.
Go bald(er), grow more hair in places than you had before, have a short temper, gain muscle without trying too hard.
Impotence when you come off it, and infertility, possibly permanent.
This was already a huge source of conflict with letting the US house bases…
Yep. Its why the MPs around some bases will basically beat you and drag your ass back on base if you are in the wrong place at the wrong time, because they have so many problems with service members committing crimes off base that its jeopardizing their authorization.
Women in the army are more likely to be murdered by their fellow servicemen than by enemies, too.
That is probably true for men too, since we really aren’t doing anything with the military apart from jerking Trump off.
It really isn’t true for men the same way though
A first-of-its-kind analysis by The Intercept found that in the Army, women are more likely to be killed by their fellow service members than by enemy combatants, in a reversal of the threat soldiers are trained to face. Between 2011 and August 2025, at least 41 women died by homicide in the Army — more than half of them at the hands of other service members or veterans. Using Defense Department manpower data to calculate per capita death rates, The Intercept found that active-duty Army women face a higher risk of homicide than male soldiers, the opposite of national and global trends.
In many cases, women in the Army are killed by current or former romantic partners. Over 70 percent of victims had an intimate relationship with the perpetrator at one point, and the rate of homicides among women soldiers from intimate partner violence is at least three times higher than the national average.
They’re not fucking Vikings, for Odin’s sake.
I can think of a couple people more deserving of sliding down a chute full of broken glass into a pond stocked with piranhas but only a couple.
