I AM the SEX, the MONEY and the POWER (DMSI v2.4)

[Shannon]

Must say, I'm very perturbed at Shannon's comment on another thread that we'll "have to start looking out for sexism." Reason being, the term itself is very vague and has no real meaning in the modern age, other than "voicing anything negative about women."

There are no real male spaces anymore, there's no place where men can sit around and shoot the shit and learn about the world without female influence. Every mainstream definition and perception of masculinity has all been manipulated to no longer focus on self-mastery. Instead, we're supposed to give all of our life, mental and physical resources to women. Any definition of masculinity that isn't focused on benefiting women is considered sexist or misogynist.

It's a slippery slope, Shannon. We're on a forum labeled "Men's Journals (NSFW)" running a product designed to flip the script in regards to attraction, and now we have to watch what we write so we won't offend the few women that stumble across the board? At what point does this become ridiculous? At what point will men finally say enough is enough and take back their birthright as men -- the ability to define their OWN definition of masculinity, one that has nothing to do with what women think.

I, for one, am getting tired of hearing women screech, "MAN UP!" when they find out that I make good money, yet I have no interest in getting married or being locked down. When I they find out that at 31, I realize that I'm more desirable than I was in my 20's because I'm in my intellectual and physical prime... and so, I choose to date women in their early 20s. Better bodies. More playful. "P" was 31. She was an atrocious woman, DMSI's influence or not. Terrible date. Angry at the world because she can't attract the kind of men that she could when she was younger. So, her response -- be even bitchier towards the men that give her a chance?

Please.

I understand that this is a business and it's a problem you'll have to deal with sooner or later, but if it gets to the point where my voice is being actively stifled because of an SJW fear, I'll have to bail from posting. And if any SJW views start making it into the subliminals, I'll have to bail from the IML train completely.

Not trying to start a fight, just being real.

The rules state that we do not tolerate any -isms. Sexism being one of those. And sexism is not just against women. I will not have women being sexist against men neither.

As a rule of thumb, if you say something that would be considered sexist and offensive to you if it was said by a woman, you're being sexist, and that is against the rules to post here. The same rule inversely goes for women posting here.

Don't make it about "being a man". It has nothing to do with attacking one gender or the other. It's about preventing -isms. This is a much more male-friendly forum than you'll find most other places, and believe me, that's not going to change. But -isms, in either direction, are divisive and destroy community. Community is the point of this forum.
