Yeah I'll say I'm a goddamn elf if it means I get 5 extra years of not having to work

[-] sirico@feddit.uk 0 points 3 months ago

Nope you get to work in a toy factory 364 days a year GG

For clarification I am against Jordan Peterson and the ilk but equal opportunity y'all.

[-] Darkraisisi@feddit.nl 0 points 3 months ago

What does the first part add to your statement? Is that his selling point?

[-] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 3 months ago

Looks like some weird hoop thinking advocating men's rights (equal retirement age) is only done by Petersen and other nutcases

[-] imaqtpie@lemmy.myserv.one 0 points 3 months ago

To be fair, the men's rights movement is absolutely characterized as alt-right by the mainstream media. People tend to assume all sorts of things about you when you bring up any kind of men's issue. Most people (including other men) have difficulty empathizing with grown men, and thus they subconsciously expect that men's advocates are motivated by something else, such as misogyny. It's hard to move past our biological and cultural tendencies and view men as vulnerable and in need of support.

Don't hate the player, hate the game.

Republicans: They're degenerates coming for our children!

This guy: To hell with that, I'm coming for your retirement benefits.

Why tf does Argentina let women retire earlier???

[-] dexa_scantron@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

Patriarchy oppresses us all.

[-] FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io 0 points 3 months ago

Yeah, that sounds about right.

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 0 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Women get to retire five years earlier than men

Lemmy: Sounds like patriarchal oppression to me!

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

it is though. same with women getting more lenient sentences for the same crimes, custody inequality, etc.

[-] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

I think a better word might be needed, to be honest.

[-] Drivebyhaiku@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

Kyriarchical oppression.

Kyriarchy refers to the overlap of various inequalities caused by gender, race, sexuallity and disability describing overlaps of cross sectionality. It also refers to the practice of problems created by assumed superiority.

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

why? this is all the results of men being in power, including the odd thing that favors women sometimes, like custody battles being usually easier for women. it comes from the patriarchal view that looking after children is the mother's job and the father barely needs to have anything to do with it.

same here: men are stronger and women are weaker, not to mention women shouldn't be working to begin with but since they do they might as well retire early.

Britain did until quite recently. Then a group of men went to court, I think hoping to get the men's age lowered to that of women. But of course the government raised the women's age to that of men.

[-] Hahah_Montana@lemmy.wtf 0 points 3 months ago

You say that as if it was the men's fault for trying to get equal treatment. Clearly you have no idea how the legal system works.

Yeap, women retire at 60 and men retire at 65.

[-] SomeGuy69@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

Because women on average live longer. Strange isn't it.

[-] steuls@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 months ago

Why would that mean they get to retire earlier then?

[-] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 months ago

Yeah, this person's logic makes no sense. This is a solid argument for men retiring earlier.

Personally, I'd say it's probably best if it's just the same for everyone.

[-] uis@lemm.ee 0 points 3 months ago

Maybe opposite? Maybe women live lomger because they retire earlier?

[-] FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io 0 points 3 months ago

No because women also live longer in countries that do not do this.

[-] ben_dover@lemmy.ml 0 points 3 months ago

it's the same in many European countries

[-] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Yeah, this seems backwards... Women tend to live longer than men.

[-] then_three_more@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

X for doubt as this comes from the daily Hail

[-] LordTE7R1S@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 3 months ago

This one is real.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

It may be real, but I'm finding a Russian nesting doll's worth of references to other sites when I try to find more info. The closest I can get is a blurb on this website, which claims to get its info from an AFP article it doesn't link to.

Daily Heil*

[-] lanigerous@feddit.uk 0 points 3 months ago

It's the Daily Mail, it's most likely total fiction as they do this all the time.

Not this time, it's real. Source: am argentine

Can't wait to see that happen in Poland as well.

Because I've been conditioned to never question laws, and never learned to mentally deal with contradictions in society I'm mad at the pronouns now! Those darn pronouns!

Ah, good source, thanks! That weighs up everything!

[-] uis@lemm.ee 0 points 3 months ago
[-] udon@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

Thanks, but that was not the point of my comment. I'm just happy about that post, because finally I learned women get more privileges than men and I can ignore everything I heard about wage gaps, glass ceilings, and sexism at work. What a relief!
