I mean I’m a man and I don’t have a very positive view of men so can’t blame them really.

It’s just a really weird article with no substance behind it. It doesn’t have the poll results but regardless it’s obviously bad this has happened.
There’s no comment on how social media may have impacted these results. There was another recent article about how women now distrust birth control because of what they’ve read on social media. There’s clearly a massive issue of manipulation going on online that’s being unaddressed

I can understand why.
Sadly a lot of men really need to address their behaviour and attitudes towards women.

Over 60% have a “positive” view. This is a ragebait headline.

As a man, and let’s be honest we get to see the unedited 💩many come out with away from the gaze of women, I also do not have a positive view of most men, only a tiny amount would get the very positive view.
Often as not when my wife rides her bike she is harrassed by men. Why would she have a “very positive” view of us?
Positive sure, but “very”?

Well what’s women’s view of women? I wouldn’t say I hold a “very positive view” of men *or* women…

Why does the article imply it’s discrimination not to hold a “very positive” view of men? This is terrible writing, and gives no information about the survey.
writeitregreddit on
BS “articles” and titles like these are such a phoney attempt to create more division in society. I bet many people would hesitate to select “very positive” as it’s basically giving a 10/10 score. How often do people pick the most extreme/highest score in a scale survey anyway? A non-story when we have much more important things to be shining a light on.

(M47) As we know there are loads of male youtubers and content creators that openly slag off women and brainwash young (and older) men.
There is the same content made by women slagging off men.
Social media, although has it’s uses, can be a very nasty place. Humans can be easily brainwashed.

God I hate this shit.
If 11% feel ‘very positive’, then we can assume that some higher percentage feel ‘positive’ and an even higher amount feel ‘average’. So it sounds like a normal distribution without anything inherently bad.
So tired of this divisive shite.

Silly question – there are few people in this world that I hold a ‘very positive’ view of, and I certainly would never say as much about a whole tranche of the population.

I don’t have a ‘very positive’ view of any large group – sex, sexuality, race, religion, nationality, etc. I have a “yeah, the people I’ve met are generally nice” view of some groups, but that’s only a couple of steps above indifference, honestly.

“Very positive” is a pretty strong rating when you think about it. I’m trying to think of any group I’d rate as such.
I’d be more interested to know what view the majority of women hold. If they’re overall at a “yeah men are fine” or above then surely that’s ok.
Men are not one homogeneous group, it’s ridiculous to try and rate your view of all men

The original article mentions women are scared a Farage govt will rollback their reproductive rights. Wonder why?
James Orr Reform’s head of policy wants abortion banned even for rape victims
Matt Goodwin , Reform candidate wants people who don’t have children punished with an additional tax
Danny Kruger (former Conservative, Reform MP for East Wiltshire) believes women do not have “an absolute right to bodily autonomy” and claims that the UK suffers from a “totally unregulated sexual economy”, suggesting politicians should play a role in reshaping sexual culture. He also opposes no-fault divorce.
Lee Anderson (former Conservative, Reform MP for Ashfield) has backed restrictions on abortion access, joining an amendment tabled to the criminal justice bill in 2024 to scrap the “pills by post” method of early medical abortion.
Ann Widdecombe (former Conservative, Reform member) has spent decades campaigning against abortion rights and has long been involved in parliamentary pro-life groups.
Maria Caulfield (former Conservative MP, Reform member) has repeatedly voted against measures expanding abortion access, including opposing buffer zones around clinics and at-home early medical abortion.
Sarah Pochin (former Conservative, Reform MP for Runcorn and Helsby) voted against decriminalising abortion and has called for the current 24-week limit to be reduced.
Plus Farage has been meeting with ADF, the US evangelical legal group that wants abortion , same sex marriage and IVF banned globally
Reform are running a candidate in Maida Vale, Lois Miller who worked for ADF and wants abortion banned in the UK

Fertility rates are at lows and all the media is just stirring up division and hate between men and women, congratulations.
The problems might be there in places, but it’s overamplified and people are pushed towards extremes by media.

‘Very Positive’ is a bit demanding anyway, isn’t it? I mean I don’t hold a ‘Very Positive’ view of anyone based around their gender. They’re all just people, which means they do a lot of good and bad stuff to a point where it takes someone with that special combination of factors to get a ‘very positive’ from me.
I will say, though, that being overly critical or overly forgiving of people based around their gender is absolutely fostering certain ‘they can do no wrong/everything they do is wrong’ attitudes amongst people that are extremely unhelpful at best, and just outright bigoted at worst.
Don’t forget, too, that this sort of divisiveness is encouraged so that we don’t have any sort of class solidarity.

Yeah… I have a positive view of individual men I meet tbf as a man. Overall, just watching behaviour in the streets and in bars and clubs, seeking to ruin someone’s night be it fighting or harassing, etc there’s no such thing as chivalry anymore in the wider group. It’s all this ‘If I am loud and aggressive I am man’ culture. I am not surprised 89% of women don’t view men positively.
