MRA: Straight men have it harder than gay men because the heterosexual “dating world is still about the subjugation of men and the elevation of women”

Woman oppressing men, one at a time

By David Futrelle

So over in the Men’s Rights subreddit, they’re discussing whether or not “LGBT men” have it better than straight men, because of course they are. (I can only wonder what they think the “L” in LGBT stands for.) And naturally, some think that straight men are the ones getting the short end of the stick, at least in the so-called sexual marketplace.

As a commenter called TC1827 puts it:

When it comes to dating yes because of norms. Men are still expected to initiate, pay, mind read, do everything "correctly" while women can act how they want. The heteronormative dating world is still about the oppression and subjugation of men and the elevation of women. Men are attacked for daring to want a fair deal while women can be straight up racist when it comes to dating and men are attacked for calling them out on it. So on that area, LGBT men have it easier, as long as they overcome homophobia and the very limited dating pool

Sure, I mean, gay guys still get beaten up for holding hands in public, but straight men are the ones who have a hard time because … they’ve convinced themselves that all women demand to have their dinners paid for. Such oppression! Such subjugation! It’s truly tragic.

Elsewhere in the discussion, another commenter adds this, er, insight:

My brother who is of that elk has told me that some gay dudes really just want to be women and will act as such in a relationship

That elk? This elk is a little confused.
