What are the forms of sexism that men face, if any?

I'll start... (I owe a reply to Phillies haters ;))

“You should not hit a girl or a woman.”

This is fine, of course, until you remember that if a girl hits a boy, that’s okay and brave and strong. Also, “Men can not be abused.” 40% of domestic abuse cases are suffered by men. Now, if 1 in 3 women are abused, and 51% of the world are female, and the world has 7 billion people, a lot of people, men included, are being abused.

I apologise, I originally had the numbers but it turns out I’m actually awful at maths so if someone knows the number, please feel free to tell in the comments.

Collectivism is for unimpressive people.

Does answering here to the question makes us the practitioner of collectivism?

No. Collectivism means thinking of people in terms of the groups they belong to, rather than their individual traits.

By definition, impressive people make an impression on others, which means impressive people are treated as individuals, rather than group members.

Thanks. I thought my words are offensive in some way. Yes, I really don't like all those Feminism movements and reverse feminism groups. In my early days as teacher, I came to know that there were groups for men as well. They talked about Men's rights. I didn't realise at that time what they were upto but clearly they were just manipulating collectivism.

From then, I could never come in terms with any institution that runs any sort of collectivism, the political parties, the movements, the castes, religion and so on..

In South America, women have always been respected and women have respected men. In some countries, such as Peru, sexism and machismo are deeply rooted. I mention this because that is where I am currently.

Is it what you are talking about here?

Yes. It should be men AND women or neither.

Honestly I think it should be neither, forcing people into service is slavery.

The preamble to the constitution of India begins with "We the people", is it ok?
