It’s telling that your first reaction is to joke about the issue. Imagine someone talking about wage gaps and people making a joke about women.

    Bigotry is not eliminated by bigotry in the other direction.

    Enabling their hypocracy? It isn't exactly unfair to call out this kind of joking when a cornerstone of men's issues is that they often aren't taken seriously when things like mental health issues arise. They're often dismissed with jokes or belittled.

    In other words, the person who came in joking failed to read the room and got called out for it. Would you defend someone saying, even facetiously 'bet she's just saying that for attention ' in a rape support thread?

    Cry harder, you whiny, enabling, sexist piece of shit.

    you’re sad other dick wielders

    You really expect people to take your opinions to heart and maybe change their minds and agree with you, while speaking to them like this?

    If you're here to just make yourself feel better, especially if you've been hurt, then by all means, continue. We don't mind the verbage pollution. /s

    However, if you're here to express ideas and have conversation that may lead to understanding, you'll need to work on your temper/tone.

    And if you just want to flame me for pointing this out, then continue on, Internet Warrior. Or don't, you're not making things any better here if you do.

    Oh horseshit, you said you're cool with making bigoted jokes now that the shoe is on the other foot. Get fucked with the whole righteous indignation spiel.

    It's interesting that criticism enrages you so much. Maybe take some time to touch grass and reflect.
