I realized this too. I actually think this is really sad. Women are great. But I do get jealous by the attractive ones for sure. Lots of women can reject and pick and choose as they please. I wish I could do that.
This statistic is a bit misleading if taken at surface level. If you account for higher male death rate with wars and disease and infant mortality, then it’s probably a bit different. I think if you accounted for those numbers, the statistics would still put women pretty high, but also bring men closer to women.
"We're biologically programmed to not care whether men fail." Sad but true. Think of every time you've read/heard a story about a war in which the author said 100 civilians were killed, including 8 women and children. What about the 92 men!?!? Similarly, the awful story about the Chibok schoolgirl kidnapping. It was objectively terrible, however, Boko Haram never kidnaps boys in those situations. Instead they simply slaughter them, and we hear nothing about that.
Actually, they originally did try kidnapping boys, but they got no public attention, so when they went to girls, it worked out so much more better. Lotsa attention.

This is a bit one-sided though. Success in breeding is not good method to judge if someone`s life is better and easier. If that would be true, we would have to consider people of the West as very poor and unhappy, as they have a lot less children than people in India, Sub-saharan Africa or Afganistan.
@@kamilkrupinski1793 One also would need to consider the economics of fertility, and the success of one's offspring. Fertility is heavily influenced by wealth: having more wealth means one has likely less time for romance, they have higher standards for a mate (wealthy self-made women have few mates that meet their standards), access to birth control, access to recreation that would distract from mating, the list goes on. The cost of raising children increases with one's wealth also, making another barrier to high fertility. For the success of one's children, we often see that the countries with the highest fertility rates often have high infant and child mortality rates. It's not so much that we have lots of children, they need to go onto being successful in life (and surviving).
i was going on to comment just about that. well certainly some odd word mastery, either that or who knows how many months it would have taken someone like me to do this in one go... lol nice vid
I feel like he was rather one sided in his arguments. After all, even if historically only half as many men got to breed, the ones that did had twice as many children as the average woman who got to breed. It kind of has to work that way. And while men are more likely to be beaten or killed than women, women are vastly more likely to be raped, but he doesn't mention that either. And while men may now have higher mortality rates from most causes and at most ages, historically women died in childbirth in large numbers. I suspect that men have had longer average lifespans for most of history. He is also kind of disingenuous with his put down of the idea that men run the world for men. Rich men may not influence the world for the betterment of men in general, but they very much do trade favors and discriminate to keep males at the top of the heap, and when they die their accumulated wealth and influence has almost always gone to males rather than females. While he is mentioning the Kinsey study he could have also mentioned that a huge percentage of women rarely or never achieve orgasm. I doubt most guys would want to be even the most attractive sort of female if they had to give that up. I also doubt that most men would want to experience bloating and cramps while bleeding from their crotch every month for decades- unless they were instead dealing with the morning sickness and all the other side effects of pregnancy leading up to the excruciating pain of childbirth. Individually most of the points Lloyd is making are quite reasonable, but when you ignore the even larger number of equally reasonable points on the other side of the argument that isn't just considered sexist, it is sexist.
@@faroncobb6040 You do realize that more men have been killed due to fighting and wars then women who have died in childbirth right? Even when women do die in childbirth how sad that can be, at least if the child survived birth, those women at least complete the circle of life and their genes are passed down. On the other hand men again die a lot more and most of them would never be able to raise a family. Women did die in large numbers due to childbirth but also men were even less likely to survive. Medicine raised both genders life expectancy although mens are still lower. Also would women like to experience war, like having your arm blown off your friends dying around you. I mean men get the shit end of the stick because that's what evolution dictated.
Me when I go to a forest: Hey look a tree. When Lindybiege goes to a forest: *Un-biased and educational including the pros and cons of the gender debate.*
MatLaPatate You’re misunderstanding me. Having an opinion on anything means you’re biased, because your personal experiences skew your opinion. Of course, bias isn’t a bad thing, we just think so, now especially, because of the radical, polarized political landscape that’s been kind of normalized over the past few years. You can never be objective, but you can be rational. That being said, he makes some incredibly rational points.
If a man achieved a position of great power in a society (president, CEO, judge, etc.), then he had to compete with and put down hundreds, if not thousands of other men. So the suggestion that he will try to help them now is ridiculous.

Lindy's the first to admit its not neutral. He even admits out of the gate that he knows what its like to be a man, not what its like to be a woman, which means there are going to be natural biases and limitations to his perspective, as much as there would be to a woman's on the issue.
@Josip I'm not quite sure I follow. You are comparing a beautiful woman to a "biological failure" as you put it. That's not a fair comparison. There are many women that are not the "most beautiful" that never have children as well. It's just the way the world works. Men have the opportunity to have kids during their whole lives, however. Women don't have that luxury. In addition to that, being ugly or any deformity most certainly hasn't meant all doom and gloom in the modern era. Maybe back in the pure caveman days, sure, but the reason we are the way we are is because the practical person, not the beautiful one, wins out in the end.
@Josip in my personal experience looks dont outweigh personality, sure it matters but its not everything and i think that the people who really think that use it as an excuse to not work on their personality. A bit like the people on r/niceguys or r/nicegirls

In my opinion one of the most balanced and well presented arguments on the subject. It so clearly illustrates how identity politics has gone to such an extreme as to be utter nonsense, whichever "side" you support. His description (regarding his tallness) of how we only notice the drawbacks of our circumstances and rarely notice the benefits was spot on.
@@jkuhede Bit late, but here are some examples I thought up. Less likely to be seen as competent. More likely to be expected to do unpaid labor such as housework and child rearing which tends to put women at the mercy of partners. Sometimes this works out fine, but if the partner is abusive, it can be challenging to leave without any financial support. Being taken less seriously when seeking medical care. More likely to deal with period pain, (not all women experience this, nor do all people who experience period pain belong to the category, women.) Naturally there are plenty of disadvantages to being a man as well. And even more disadvantages to being nonbinary than either a woman or man, and that's not even including intersex people versus male or female.
in my city (Melbourne, Australia) there was a protest to change some pedestrian crossing lights from normal stick figures to stick figures with skirts... i honestly do not know why that would matter so much to somebody that they would put all that effort into changing something so little and meaningless..
I never got that. A woman can wear pants, but a man generally can't wear a skirt. You think a plain stick figure would be more egalitarian as being gender neutral.
I'm tall and the only time it comes in handy is when a light bulb needs replacing and nobody has a ladder. Also I know when people are turning bald before they do.
You being tall also makes you more attractive to women. They get a sense of security out of it that they wouldn't get if you where the same hight as them or slightly taller.
I bang my head against the door each time i've got to stop off the bus... thank goodness for the pad they put there. Also i think that if a tall person fall they would do more damage to their head or shoulders due to falling from a higher height.
No, you dont know when people are going bald before they do. People just are in denial and pretend they are not bald. the day a man starts balding, deep down, he knows. He sees the spot in the mirror, and starts making excuses for why he may not be balding. I went through that myself.

The company I worked for actually hired a few women, not ONE made it... every last one of them quit on their first day. They simply could not do the job. Is that discrimination? Should the company have been forced to hire 50% women, and then extra men to help the women hoist around their gear since they couldn't? It's ridiculous, I'm so sick of the notion of bias and discrimination based on gender, it's just almost non-existent.

Men also do most of the hard labor and is much more likely to be injured or die working. Men don’t live as long as women, witch sucks but also means women get all the money(not undeserving necessarily)the husband has saved from his labor. Some women say there is a wage gap, But don’t take into consideration the type of jobs, hours put in(women often chose a better work/family balance) or how men get ahead often due to their biological competitiveness and need to prove oneself, often to get a women. Women beat men in achieving college degrees at all levels in the United States. Although men often are the financial providers, women make the majority of purchases and financial decisions. (Western cultures) Yeah, so there is that....
Mark Kazmier If you are smart and well off the benefits of being a specific gender are minimal . Men have higher wages as they are more likely get higher up in terms of positions. Women live a bit longer and tend to get to spend more time with the family. If you are in a lower socioeconomic group there are still quite stark differences, low skill manual labour jobs are significantly harder for most women than men, access and knowledge about contraception and abortion is significantly lower in lower socioeconomic groups so they may get stuck having kids earlier that they may want (it is significantly easier for a man to run away from an unwanted child than a woman). And then in the third world I think most can agree that being a woman is horrendous.

Except it's pretty much exactly that. He's just given the reasons why it's such a straight forward answer, but the answer is straight forward. Do men have it easier ? No. Why ? Watch video, it's a summary of why. The argument of violence experience is a very strong one.
I'm not a woman so I'm not going to discuss their side of the fence as Lindy coined it, I don't think that would be fair. Converserly, I don't think it is fair for women to dictate what men can feel about their issues either. So here is the male side of the fence. In my experience: Men feel more pressure to be tough, hard, competant and not to talk about things or show their emotions. Men aren't allowed to be ill. Tell your female co-workers and they'll be cries of man floo etc. This is one of the reasons why men don't go to the doctors and die more. Men have a harder time at the dating game. A lack of 'traditionally male' jobs because of the decline of industry has resulted in a crisis of identidy for a lot of boys and men. Men get a really hard time when getting custody of their children. Male rape and domestic abuse is seen as a joke. Men are way more likely to be homeless, poor, addicts or in jail. They also serve longer sentences for the same crimes. Men are way more likely to commit suicide or be depressed, and Male post natal depression is seen as a joke. Men are way more likely to die or be seriously hurt through violence. Men don't live as long in general. Boys do worse than girls in school. Men working with children are viewed with more suspicion - are trusted less. Now I'm not saying women don't have their issues either, because they do, but these are my experiences.

No one wants to be tall so that theyll be able to pick off stuff from shelves. They want to be tall because women find tall people more attractive and tall people are respected more simply by the virtue of their height.
Can't confirm, I am almost 2 meters tall and it isn't easy getting respect, and the part about women finding me more attractive because of it? No evidence of that at all in my life.
Then you are just unattractive and probably don't do much to govern real respect anyways. It's a harsh reality out there. Also... Almost 2 meters isn't exactly "tall"... That's a pretty average height among men at least it is here in Canada. I know because I'm about the same height 5 foot 11 inches, or 180 cm. But if you were to put two men with equal position in power and attractiveness next to each other and ask people to choose who they think is the "real leader" or who they'd choose as a partner. Most cases are going to end up choosing the one who is taller. Obviously there are outliers. Using yourself isn't a good example. How are you going to notice something like that? You aren't going to notice weather or not people are giving you more or less respect because you are tall. Not unless someone tells you directly that's the reason.
You do realize that "almost two meters" means he is like 6'6 or something and.. you know... that's like a whole head taller than you. That's far from being average, especially in Canada. Even here in Germany you see those people not very often. And btw I can fully agree on the guy's point. Height doesn't matter at all, except if you don't have any other things in your life and you can only brag with your height. However, something like that can be easily outweighed by the shape of your face or your weight, so basically a guy who is 5'3 and is good looking, muscular and confident will get probably in the end of the day by far more girls than the giant, who looks average.
Ah right, sorry you're correct. I was thinking of Yards not Meters. So my bad on that point, not sure how I got that mixed up. But my point wasn't that height is the only deciding factor. I thought I made that clear. I made the point that 2 people of equal standards with the only difference being height, the guy who is taller generally governs more immediate respect. But he could gain or lose respect just as quick, this is merely a superficial standard based on appearance. Yes there are plenty of other factors like you say. That's why I said, he probably doesn't do much to govern respect in the first place. Height doesn't mean instant respect, height can just increase the respect you already have from other aspects of you, weather it be appearance, line of business, attitude, popularity, personality, etc. Again, I never said height was the deciding factor off the get go. It's just a "bonus" i guess you might say. You're right, it's better to be short good looking and confident, than tall and painfully average.
This is the very first Lindybiege video I ever saw, which happened to show up in my recommended a while ago, maybe over a year by now. I'm glad I found him, there is something very enjoyable about watching a knowledgable, charismatic Brit ranting on about things he is passionate over.
I know of a couple where both the man and woman worked very highly paid jobs. They had bought a second home and their first house had been rented out to help pay the mortgage on the second one. It turned out when the renter left, that they had trashed the house completely, and the couple were unable to rent it after that without huge repairs so were struggling with the mortgage payments on the second house and the repairs on the first house. At the insistence of her husband, the wife started looking for a higher paid job, in order to help cope with the bills. She went to interviews and got the job offer, but then didn't want to leave the job she was in as she really liked it and it was closer to her children and home - had she taken the new job she wouldn't have been able to drop the kids off at school, or make their dinner, or spend time helping them with their homework etc (something that she'd always done and her husband didn't do). She couldn't decide what to do - take new job and higher money and be able to pay the bills, or stay in the lower paid job and be able to be a mother to her children. Her husband was pushing her to take the better job as they desperately needed the money or they'd default on the mortgage, so she eventually went to her boss and told him/her about the situation, that she'd have to take the higher paid job (even though she was unhappy about it and loved her job, and didn't want to leave). Her boss said she was indispensable to the company, promoted her to a more senior position, and gave her a substantial raise (more than the other job was offering). It struck me as I heard this story, that perhaps part of the reason women are often paid less than men is because they don't want to risk losing their jobs by asking for more money (whereas men will often take that risk, and some of them may fail and lose their job entirely). She was doing her job as well as (or better than) any of the men in her workplace and obviously deserved the raise, but she'd never asked for it before this point (and only had this conversation with her boss at all because her husband had pushed her into getting a better paid job). Also I can see that many women are perhaps more concerned about their family's welfare than their own personal success - as a mother she had to worry about whether her family were fed, taken care of and happy. Her husband didn't have to worry about this (since she did it for him) and worked longer hours further from home because it paid more (even though it meant he didn't spend as much time with his kids and wasn't there to prepare meals, take them to school or help with homework). It's not that women aren't as good at their jobs - it's that women play it safe and consider family needs before personal success (basically they are less competitive than men).
I disagree with the idea that man focus on their jobs for selfish reasons, I know a lot of man that would prefer to spend more time with family and work less, but between that and letting their mates get the more pleasureble job. They choose make the sacrifice without even thinking about it
@@victoraugusto743 It's not that it's for selfish reasons, I didn't mean to imply that, they are providing money for the family after all. It's more that because women usually do all the home life stuff (childcare, cleaning, cooking) men can afford to focus more on their jobs, put in longer hours, go out socializing with their workmates and bosses after work etc and know that the family will still be taken care of.
a much shorter version: women have the luxury of choosing personal happiness over career. men are pressured by their wives to choose career over personal happiness.
@@sabin97 Thats not what happened in the story. The female was being pushed to get a better job. And she didn't decide between family and career. If she did, she wouldn't be working. In the story the female talks to her boss about it and he gives her a promotion. That means more work. Meanwhile the husband was pushing her to take the new job. It is obvious that her happiness would of been to spend all her time with family, however, she couldn't do that. Youre comment is the opposite of what happened in the story. "Women have the luxury of choosing personal happiness of carrer." No, she decided to try to get a better job. "Men are pressured by their wives to choose carrer over personal happiness." No, the male was never pushed to do anything. Actually, the opposite hapoened. The male pushed the female to choose career.

And personally, I've thought about similar stuff many times, and seeing this video makes me feel quite proud of myself. It's my first time seeing this channel, but I'm definitely subscribing, you're the best.
Yea definitely. When you're female you have the advantage to choose who you want to date. Most girls I know that don't date don't do it because it's scary and everyone has planted this idea that it will ruin your succsses in life. Or the "men bad" thing that makes no sense. Ofc not every dude is going to get you pregnant and leave you or use you, yea some will, but there's always bad people. Women are definitely more manipulative and put themselves first much more than men. They are smarter in that case. A smart woman can ruin a man's life maybe the same amount as a man can ruin a woman's life. And this goes unnoticed. Society is built to credit people like that and people are like that because they are raised to become that way. But again not every woman is manipulative and not every guy is only using you. We have worse problems.
There were some statistics I stumbled uopn a while ago. Ut says that 'average' looking women actually have an easier time getting a man than the extremely attractive ones. The reasoning would be that men are feel like she is almost certainly with another man so it isn't worth spending energy on her, so they go for less attractive women
Isak s Actually, I would say the reason is because men are more likely to want sex (biology!) They’re more likely to settle whereas a woman might go for a more attractive man. I wouldn’t say that’s a downside to being male because the man is getting what he wants (more sex). It can however be seen as a downside to women who don’t care as much for the sex. They are getting less meaningful relationships than they want.
@@conradsmith9441 the thing with how the brain is programmed is that a male brain is programmed to spread their genes to as many people as possible to make a lot of offspring. whilst women are programmed to try and get the best male to carry their offspring. there is viritually no limit on how many offspring a man can have but the amount is greatly limited for a woman. this means that women are programmed to aim way above their league whilst men are generally going for one that can make babies and are healthy.
@@adampetrowski this is true. it comes from how many offspring one can have. a man can have viritually no limit of offspring with many partners whilst women have to find a good one cause they have to carry and nurture that baby for years to come. so the women are going for the good genes and the successful ones just so they can give their kids security when growing up. the thoughts aren't the same nowerdays but the effect is still just as prevelent today as it were thousands of years ago

As a woman, the only thing I hate about my gender is having painful, intense periods, especially due to the fact that I have PCOS. But, I enjoy being a woman. Yes, there are some issues in our western society, but I am so grateful I was not born in other countries where even trying to have a say will get you beaten up or killed. These are the issues I witnessed men having to face: 1. Being told they're pussies for showing emotions, or simply trying to avoid conventional boyish activities. 2. Being told they're pussies for still being virgin at 18. 3. Having to be "the strong" one in a couple, or having to choose a certain career because otherwise they're not "man" enough. 4. Feeling the stress of not being the "providing" head of the family. Calm down, we're in the 21st century, and both women and men should contribute to the family. Numerous cases of suicide I read on newspaper, were because the father couldn't stand the idea of not being a "proper" man because he was unemployed. A woman is not an object, is not a body, a vagina, just like a man is not his money, or his job. 5. Being afraid of flirting with a woman, because some women probably misinterpret normal, proper flirting and think it's harassment and molestation. Yes, I saw a girl at the club who grabbed a guy by his throat simply because he was smiling at her. 6. This is personal because it's only based on my experience seeing my brother and other boys in the neighbourhood but... Definitely superficial and shallow friendships, because they never EVER talk with each other about secrets, insecurities, problems. All they do is playing soccer or videogames together, telling bullshit, jokes. But the moment they need help, they never talk about it, holding it until it becomes too big to be managed, ending up in episodes of extreme anger and frustration towards family and institution. 7. Having to endure a woman's rage and even violence, because "hitting" women is wrong. Hitting a woman is not necessarily domestic violence. Domestic violence is a mix of physical AND mental abuse and manipulation, it's a specific dynamics and it can't be attributed to, let's say, a simply slap or a punch. Of course men are usually stronger, but why should the woman feel entitled to hit a man, and then feel shocked if he slaps her in return? If a woman is annoying you, she is hurting you, you should be able to react. Maybe try not to use your full force like you'd do with a man, but DO something. 8. Most of the time, when a couple gets a divorce, it's always the woman who gets custody of the kids. I witnessed some fucked up scenarios where the woman was not able to care for the kids and the kids WANTED to stay with the dad, yet she won because she was "the mother". There are other things but I currently only remember these ones.
I’m a guy and I can deal with I’d say most of these problems because as much as they suck I wouldn’t want to deal with periods and child birth due to the pain, mood swings, etc. But the thing that pisses me off the most is that guys usually can’t bring most of these arguments up without being called a sexist, and being judged by everyone around. We will see it in our daily lives that some women will protest or even just fight for their problems, but when a guy steps in he will get outnumbered and bashed because he doesn’t have a say. Sometimes yes I want to fight with you
Good to know some women have a sense of reality. Number 8 hits me hard... especially I love having my own kids someday. I even treat my youngest sister as a pretend daughter of mine. But number 6 never happened to me that much, I'm pretty lucky to have wonderful friends.
@@CamoFFAArmy I mean, even though you can probably handle most of these, having men that were told to be "pussies" for normal things, have repercussions on their personality, ultimately damaging those around them. It makes them cold and unable to express their feelings properly, or extremely proud. Maybe I just live in a shitty neighbourhood but that's part of my experience: men who can't say sorry, who can't sympathize with others, men who only want to fuck around because they were always told "women are bitches, they will hurt you" and so on. Even if it seems like a small detail, I wish boys were given the opportunity to cry, and be sensitive, and be whatever they wanted to be. How many times have you seen a father telling his kid "men don't cry"? It's also part of the reasons why, as the guy said in the video, women are more likely to ATTEMPT suicide, whereas men actually kill themselves. If only they were able to cope with a damaged ego and negative feelings, some of these men could have been helped, but they rarely seek for help because "men don't cry".
@@CamoFFAArmy Anyways, yes, I agree with you when you say that if a man brings up something like this, is called sexist. Or women tend to tell him "shut up, we are the oppressed ones so you can't bring up your issues". As a feminist, I often have to deal with women that only think about their causes, without considering the fact that, the more they focus on Them only, the more divided we become, instead of uniting and helping each other.

First video I see of you. It's a real pleasure to listen someone about this subject that is humble. You are trying to speak the truth, and use logic over subjective emotions.
i work in a school that is pretty traditional but making good strides of progress. we have almost exactly a 50/50 male/female teacher split, and the office jobs are the same. we have 4 principal and vice-principal positions, all of which had been held by the same 4 men for 25 years. they were of course getting on a bit, and a couple years ago the principal and one of the vice principals retired. one of the vice principals naturally got promoted to principal, which left 2 vice principal positions free, and they were filled by 2 senior male teachers. i was close to outraged. we were doing so well and then they pull this? to drum up a bit of support before making anything of it, i talked to some of the senior female teachers about how they felt about it. 4 of them had been offered the jobs, one was offered a second time with more money when the other 3 turned it down, and she turned it down again, all 4 giving a mixture of not wanting more hours and more responsibility, and preferred being more close to a few students than only a little contact with all of them. it was only after that the positions were then offered to male teachers. i was then almost counter-outraged. why should any women or any men be offered more money just because the sex they happen to be differs from the sex of other people in the company? i now firmly believe in accepting people's choices, and making all offers fair and balanced. we shouldn't deny people who want a job and coax others who don't want it just to make more pleasing statistics.
+satoau1 Beautiful story. Had you not actually looked into the situation by talking to the women involved, you'd really be getting the wrong side of the story. Regardless of the context and theme, it's an important lesson to learn that getting both sides is very important.
I guess she was offered more money, because whoever did the hiring saw the benefit of balancing out the genders. I hope they'd consider the same if the situation was the opposite :)
yes, and we try to balance genders to make things fair to both, but then if we're offering more money to one gender that is unfair and we're doing the exact thing we're trying to avoid. if genders have the same employment opportunity that is fair, regardless of who decides to take the opportunity offered.
Yes, god forbid we base jobs on merit and instead go with the extremely sexist approach and make a position based entirely if they are the right sex for the job. We need to get that 50/50 balanced because that really makes for a quality workforce.

This statistic is a bit misleading if taken at surface level. If you account for higher male death rate with wars and disease and infant mortality, then it’s probably a bit different. I think if you accounted for those numbers, the statistics would still put women pretty high, but also bring men closer to women.

This is a bit one-sided though. Success in breeding is not good method to judge if someone`s life is better and easier. If that would be true, we would have to consider people of the West as very poor and unhappy, as they have a lot less children than people in India, Sub-saharan Africa or Afganistan.
@@kamilkrupinski1793 One also would need to consider the economics of fertility, and the success of one's offspring. Fertility is heavily influenced by wealth: having more wealth means one has likely less time for romance, they have higher standards for a mate (wealthy self-made women have few mates that meet their standards), access to birth control, access to recreation that would distract from mating, the list goes on. The cost of raising children increases with one's wealth also, making another barrier to high fertility.
For the success of one's children, we often see that the countries with the highest fertility rates often have high infant and child mortality rates. It's not so much that we have lots of children, they need to go onto being successful in life (and surviving).

@@TactfulWaggle I see 249 likes ;-) Guess they breed.
I feel like he was rather one sided in his arguments. After all, even if historically only half as many men got to breed, the ones that did had twice as many children as the average woman who got to breed. It kind of has to work that way. And while men are more likely to be beaten or killed than women, women are vastly more likely to be raped, but he doesn't mention that either. And while men may now have higher mortality rates from most causes and at most ages, historically women died in childbirth in large numbers. I suspect that men have had longer average lifespans for most of history. He is also kind of disingenuous with his put down of the idea that men run the world for men. Rich men may not influence the world for the betterment of men in general, but they very much do trade favors and discriminate to keep males at the top of the heap, and when they die their accumulated wealth and influence has almost always gone to males rather than females. While he is mentioning the Kinsey study he could have also mentioned that a huge percentage of women rarely or never achieve orgasm. I doubt most guys would want to be even the most attractive sort of female if they had to give that up. I also doubt that most men would want to experience bloating and cramps while bleeding from their crotch every month for decades- unless they were instead dealing with the morning sickness and all the other side effects of pregnancy leading up to the excruciating pain of childbirth. Individually most of the points Lloyd is making are quite reasonable, but when you ignore the even larger number of equally reasonable points on the other side of the argument that isn't just considered sexist, it is sexist.
@@faroncobb6040 You do realize that more men have been killed due to fighting and wars then women who have died in childbirth right? Even when women do die in childbirth how sad that can be, at least if the child survived birth, those women at least complete the circle of life and their genes are passed down. On the other hand men again die a lot more and most of them would never be able to raise a family. Women did die in large numbers due to childbirth but also men were even less likely to survive. Medicine raised both genders life expectancy although mens are still lower. Also would women like to experience war, like having your arm blown off your friends dying around you. I mean men get the shit end of the stick because that's what evolution dictated.

@Captain Tim Curry 60% of men are with you, Brother. #TheSilentMajority
I'm impressed by the Lindy's ability to neutrally navigate what is today an incredibly loaded topic.
Lindy's the first to admit its not neutral. He even admits out of the gate that he knows what its like to be a man, not what its like to be a woman, which means there are going to be natural biases and limitations to his perspective, as much as there would be to a woman's on the issue.
Put women in the kind of trials men face, and you got yourself a way to compare. Vice versa.
Feminists will not consider this neutral, lol
Basically, we're all in the shitter. That's just how life is.
@Josip I'm not quite sure I follow. You are comparing a beautiful woman to a "biological failure" as you put it. That's not a fair comparison. There are many women that are not the "most beautiful" that never have children as well. It's just the way the world works. Men have the opportunity to have kids during their whole lives, however. Women don't have that luxury. In addition to that, being ugly or any deformity most certainly hasn't meant all doom and gloom in the modern era. Maybe back in the pure caveman days, sure, but the reason we are the way we are is because the practical person, not the beautiful one, wins out in the end.
Yep
@Josip in my personal experience looks dont outweigh personality, sure it matters but its not everything and i think that the people who really think that use it as an excuse to not work on their personality. A bit like the people on r/niceguys or r/nicegirls

@@yeosswhat disadvantages do women have?
@@jkuhede
Bit late, but here are some examples I thought up.
Less likely to be seen as competent. More likely to be expected to do unpaid labor such as housework and child rearing which tends to put women at the mercy of partners. Sometimes this works out fine, but if the partner is abusive, it can be challenging to leave without any financial support. Being taken less seriously when seeking medical care. More likely to deal with period pain, (not all women experience this, nor do all people who experience period pain belong to the category, women.)
Naturally there are plenty of disadvantages to being a man as well. And even more disadvantages to being nonbinary than either a woman or man, and that's not even including intersex people versus male or female.
in my city (Melbourne, Australia) there was a protest to change some pedestrian crossing lights from normal stick figures to stick figures with skirts... i honestly do not know why that would matter so much to somebody that they would put all that effort into changing something so little and meaningless..
magical pineapple and if it succeeded they would complain about skirts being oppressive
I never got that. A woman can wear pants, but a man generally can't wear a skirt. You think a plain stick figure would be more egalitarian as being gender neutral.
Stick figures aren't all men, though, right? They just represent people. I mean, you don't have to wear a skirt in real life to be considered female.
It's all about power.
Any power they can get is worth whatever they have to do to get it.

It's not like women have never been sovereigns. Hell, we've had woman presidents of the USA, not in name but in function. Edith Wilson ran the country after her husbands stroke. Of course nowadays we've gotta elect the first woman president no matter how corrupt, stupid, inexperienced, or flat out looney they may be (I'm looking at you Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris.) Otherwise what are you, some kind of FUCKING SEXIST PIG PRIVILEGED SHITLORD!!!?!?!?
It's not like women have no leadership abilities, they just run things differently and most seem less inclined to wanna do it.

Men also do most of the hard labor and is much more likely to be injured or die working.
Men don’t live as long as women, witch sucks but also means women get all the money(not undeserving necessarily)the husband has saved from his labor.
Some women say there is a wage gap, But don’t take into consideration the type of jobs, hours put in(women often chose a better work/family balance) or how men get ahead often due to their biological competitiveness and need to prove oneself, often to get a women.
Women beat men in achieving college degrees at all levels in the United States.
Although men often are the financial providers, women make the majority of purchases and financial decisions. (Western cultures)
Yeah, so there is that....
Mark Kazmier If you are smart and well off the benefits of being a specific gender are minimal . Men have higher wages as they are more likely get higher up in terms of positions. Women live a bit longer and tend to get to spend more time with the family. If you are in a lower socioeconomic group there are still quite stark differences, low skill manual labour jobs are significantly harder for most women than men, access and knowledge about contraception and abortion is significantly lower in lower socioeconomic groups so they may get stuck having kids earlier that they may want (it is significantly easier for a man to run away from an unwanted child than a woman). And then in the third world I think most can agree that being a woman is horrendous.

You've gained a lot of respect from me for sharing your thoughts on this. I've been saying these things for a while.
I'm not a woman so I'm not going to discuss their side of the fence as Lindy coined it, I don't think that would be fair. Converserly, I don't think it is fair for women to dictate what men can feel about their issues either. So here is the male side of the fence.
In my experience:
Men feel more pressure to be tough, hard, competant and not to talk about things or show their emotions.
Men aren't allowed to be ill. Tell your female co-workers and they'll be cries of man floo etc. This is one of the reasons why men don't go to the doctors and die more.
Men have a harder time at the dating game.
A lack of 'traditionally male' jobs because of the decline of industry has resulted in a crisis of identidy for a lot of boys and men.
Men get a really hard time when getting custody of their children.
Male rape and domestic abuse is seen as a joke.
Men are way more likely to be homeless, poor, addicts or in jail. They also serve longer sentences for the same crimes.
Men are way more likely to commit suicide or be depressed, and Male post natal depression is seen as a joke.
Men are way more likely to die or be seriously hurt through violence.
Men don't live as long in general.
Boys do worse than girls in school.
Men working with children are viewed with more suspicion - are trusted less.
Now I'm not saying women don't have their issues either, because they do, but these are my experiences.

Same but from half a year to a year in Finland.
No one wants to be tall so that theyll be able to pick off stuff from shelves. They want to be tall because women find tall people more attractive and tall people are respected more simply by the virtue of their height.
Can't confirm, I am almost 2 meters tall and it isn't easy getting respect, and the part about women finding me more attractive because of it? No evidence of that at all in my life.
Then you are just unattractive and probably don't do much to govern real respect anyways. It's a harsh reality out there. Also... Almost 2 meters isn't exactly "tall"... That's a pretty average height among men at least it is here in Canada. I know because I'm about the same height 5 foot 11 inches, or 180 cm.
But if you were to put two men with equal position in power and attractiveness next to each other and ask people to choose who they think is the "real leader" or who they'd choose as a partner. Most cases are going to end up choosing the one who is taller. Obviously there are outliers.
Using yourself isn't a good example. How are you going to notice something like that? You aren't going to notice weather or not people are giving you more or less respect because you are tall. Not unless someone tells you directly that's the reason.
You do realize that "almost two meters" means he is like 6'6 or something and.. you know... that's like a whole head taller than you. That's far from being average, especially in Canada. Even here in Germany you see those people not very often.
And btw I can fully agree on the guy's point. Height doesn't matter at all, except if you don't have any other things in your life and you can only brag with your height. However, something like that can be easily outweighed by the shape of your face or your weight, so basically a guy who is 5'3 and is good looking, muscular and confident will get probably in the end of the day by far more girls than the giant, who looks average.
Ah right, sorry you're correct. I was thinking of Yards not Meters. So my bad on that point, not sure how I got that mixed up.
But my point wasn't that height is the only deciding factor. I thought I made that clear. I made the point that 2 people of equal standards with the only difference being height, the guy who is taller generally governs more immediate respect. But he could gain or lose respect just as quick, this is merely a superficial standard based on appearance. Yes there are plenty of other factors like you say. That's why I said, he probably doesn't do much to govern respect in the first place. Height doesn't mean instant respect, height can just increase the respect you already have from other aspects of you, weather it be appearance, line of business, attitude, popularity, personality, etc.
Again, I never said height was the deciding factor off the get go. It's just a "bonus" i guess you might say.
You're right, it's better to be short good looking and confident, than tall and painfully average.
Height is perceived as a good thing, that's why in general women prefer to date men who are taller than them.
This is the very first Lindybiege video I ever saw, which happened to show up in my recommended a while ago, maybe over a year by now. I'm glad I found him, there is something very enjoyable about watching a knowledgable, charismatic Brit ranting on about things he is passionate over.
I know of a couple where both the man and woman worked very highly paid jobs. They had bought a second home and their first house had been rented out to help pay the mortgage on the second one. It turned out when the renter left, that they had trashed the house completely, and the couple were unable to rent it after that without huge repairs so were struggling with the mortgage payments on the second house and the repairs on the first house.
At the insistence of her husband, the wife started looking for a higher paid job, in order to help cope with the bills. She went to interviews and got the job offer, but then didn't want to leave the job she was in as she really liked it and it was closer to her children and home - had she taken the new job she wouldn't have been able to drop the kids off at school, or make their dinner, or spend time helping them with their homework etc (something that she'd always done and her husband didn't do). She couldn't decide what to do - take new job and higher money and be able to pay the bills, or stay in the lower paid job and be able to be a mother to her children.
Her husband was pushing her to take the better job as they desperately needed the money or they'd default on the mortgage, so she eventually went to her boss and told him/her about the situation, that she'd have to take the higher paid job (even though she was unhappy about it and loved her job, and didn't want to leave). Her boss said she was indispensable to the company, promoted her to a more senior position, and gave her a substantial raise (more than the other job was offering).
It struck me as I heard this story, that perhaps part of the reason women are often paid less than men is because they don't want to risk losing their jobs by asking for more money (whereas men will often take that risk, and some of them may fail and lose their job entirely). She was doing her job as well as (or better than) any of the men in her workplace and obviously deserved the raise, but she'd never asked for it before this point (and only had this conversation with her boss at all because her husband had pushed her into getting a better paid job).
Also I can see that many women are perhaps more concerned about their family's welfare than their own personal success - as a mother she had to worry about whether her family were fed, taken care of and happy. Her husband didn't have to worry about this (since she did it for him) and worked longer hours further from home because it paid more (even though it meant he didn't spend as much time with his kids and wasn't there to prepare meals, take them to school or help with homework).
It's not that women aren't as good at their jobs - it's that women play it safe and consider family needs before personal success (basically they are less competitive than men).
I disagree with the idea that man focus on their jobs for selfish reasons, I know a lot of man that would prefer to spend more time with family and work less, but between that and letting their mates get the more pleasureble job. They choose make the sacrifice without even thinking about it
@@victoraugusto743 It's not that it's for selfish reasons, I didn't mean to imply that, they are providing money for the family after all. It's more that because women usually do all the home life stuff (childcare, cleaning, cooking) men can afford to focus more on their jobs, put in longer hours, go out socializing with their workmates and bosses after work etc and know that the family will still be taken care of.
Women dont earn money everytime btw, social jobs are just less paid and most women choose social jobs
a much shorter version:
women have the luxury of choosing personal happiness over career.
men are pressured by their wives to choose career over personal happiness.
@@sabin97 Thats not what happened in the story. The female was being pushed to get a better job. And she didn't decide between family and career. If she did, she wouldn't be working. In the story the female talks to her boss about it and he gives her a promotion. That means more work. Meanwhile the husband was pushing her to take the new job. It is obvious that her happiness would of been to spend all her time with family, however, she couldn't do that. Youre comment is the opposite of what happened in the story.
"Women have the luxury of choosing personal happiness of carrer." No, she decided to try to get a better job.
"Men are pressured by their wives to choose carrer over personal happiness." No, the male was never pushed to do anything. Actually, the opposite hapoened. The male pushed the female to choose career.
I like your voice, too, I find it soothing and soothing voices are nice to listen to (coincidentally, you choose to make RUclips videos where you do a lot of talking).

Yea definitely. When you're female you have the advantage to choose who you want to date.

Ofc not every dude is going to get you pregnant and leave you or use you, yea some will, but there's always bad people.
Women are definitely more manipulative and put themselves first much more than men. They are smarter in that case. A smart woman can ruin a man's life maybe the same amount as a man can ruin a woman's life. And this goes unnoticed.
Society is built to credit people like that and people are like that because they are raised to become that way. But again not every woman is manipulative and not every guy is only using you. We have worse problems.
There were some statistics I stumbled uopn a while ago. Ut says that 'average' looking women actually have an easier time getting a man than the extremely attractive ones.
The reasoning would be that men are feel like she is almost certainly with another man so it isn't worth spending energy on her, so they go for less attractive women
Isak s Actually, I would say the reason is because men are more likely to want sex (biology!) They’re more likely to settle whereas a woman might go for a more attractive man. I wouldn’t say that’s a downside to being male because the man is getting what he wants (more sex). It can however be seen as a downside to women who don’t care as much for the sex. They are getting less meaningful relationships than they want.
I am not surprised by this. I have seen men going for less attractive women my whole life. I’m one of them, but trying to change that.
Statistics prove woman go for the top 20% man and man go for top 80% of women
@@conradsmith9441 the thing with how the brain is programmed is that a male brain is programmed to spread their genes to as many people as possible to make a lot of offspring. whilst women are programmed to try and get the best male to carry their offspring. there is viritually no limit on how many offspring a man can have but the amount is greatly limited for a woman.
this means that women are programmed to aim way above their league whilst men are generally going for one that can make babies and are healthy.
@@adampetrowski this is true. it comes from how many offspring one can have.
a man can have viritually no limit of offspring with many partners whilst women have to find a good one cause they have to carry and nurture that baby for years to come. so the women are going for the good genes and the successful ones just so they can give their kids security when growing up.

As a woman, the only thing I hate about my gender is having painful, intense periods, especially due to the fact that I have PCOS. But, I enjoy being a woman.
Yes, there are some issues in our western society, but I am so grateful I was not born in other countries where even trying to have a say will get you beaten up or killed.
These are the issues I witnessed men having to face:
1. Being told they're pussies for showing emotions, or simply trying to avoid conventional boyish activities.
2. Being told they're pussies for still being virgin at 18.
3. Having to be "the strong" one in a couple, or having to choose a certain career because otherwise they're not "man" enough.
4. Feeling the stress of not being the "providing" head of the family. Calm down, we're in the 21st century, and both women and men should contribute to the family. Numerous cases of suicide I read on newspaper, were because the father couldn't stand the idea of not being a "proper" man because he was unemployed. A woman is not an object, is not a body, a vagina, just like a man is not his money, or his job.
5. Being afraid of flirting with a woman, because some women probably misinterpret normal, proper flirting and think it's harassment and molestation. Yes, I saw a girl at the club who grabbed a guy by his throat simply because he was smiling at her.
6. This is personal because it's only based on my experience seeing my brother and other boys in the neighbourhood but... Definitely superficial and shallow friendships, because they never EVER talk with each other about secrets, insecurities, problems. All they do is playing soccer or videogames together, telling bullshit, jokes. But the moment they need help, they never talk about it, holding it until it becomes too big to be managed, ending up in episodes of extreme anger and frustration towards family and institution.
7. Having to endure a woman's rage and even violence, because "hitting" women is wrong. Hitting a woman is not necessarily domestic violence. Domestic violence is a mix of physical AND mental abuse and manipulation, it's a specific dynamics and it can't be attributed to, let's say, a simply slap or a punch. Of course men are usually stronger, but why should the woman feel entitled to hit a man, and then feel shocked if he slaps her in return? If a woman is annoying you, she is hurting you, you should be able to react. Maybe try not to use your full force like you'd do with a man, but DO something.
8. Most of the time, when a couple gets a divorce, it's always the woman who gets custody of the kids. I witnessed some fucked up scenarios where the woman was not able to care for the kids and the kids WANTED to stay with the dad, yet she won because she was "the mother".
There are other things but I currently only remember these ones.
I’m a guy and I can deal with I’d say most of these problems because as much as they suck I wouldn’t want to deal with periods and child birth due to the pain, mood swings, etc.
But the thing that pisses me off the most is that guys usually can’t bring most of these arguments up without being called a sexist, and being judged by everyone around. We will see it in our daily lives that some women will protest or even just fight for their problems, but when a guy steps in he will get outnumbered and bashed because he doesn’t have a say. Sometimes yes I want to fight with you
Good to know some women have a sense of reality. Number 8 hits me hard... especially I love having my own kids someday. I even treat my youngest sister as a pretend daughter of mine. But number 6 never happened to me that much, I'm pretty lucky to have wonderful friends.
@@CamoFFAArmy I mean, even though you can probably handle most of these, having men that were told to be "pussies" for normal things, have repercussions on their personality, ultimately damaging those around them. It makes them cold and unable to express their feelings properly, or extremely proud. Maybe I just live in a shitty neighbourhood but that's part of my experience: men who can't say sorry, who can't sympathize with others, men who only want to fuck around because they were always told "women are bitches, they will hurt you" and so on. Even if it seems like a small detail, I wish boys were given the opportunity to cry, and be sensitive, and be whatever they wanted to be.
How many times have you seen a father telling his kid "men don't cry"?
It's also part of the reasons why, as the guy said in the video, women are more likely to ATTEMPT suicide, whereas men actually kill themselves. If only they were able to cope with a damaged ego and negative feelings, some of these men could have been helped, but they rarely seek for help because "men don't cry".
@@CamoFFAArmy Anyways, yes, I agree with you when you say that if a man brings up something like this, is called sexist. Or women tend to tell him "shut up, we are the oppressed ones so you can't bring up your issues".
As a feminist, I often have to deal with women that only think about their causes, without considering the fact that, the more they focus on Them only, the more divided we become, instead of uniting and helping each other.

First video I see of you. It's a real pleasure to listen someone about this subject that is humble. You are trying to speak the truth, and use logic over subjective emotions.
i work in a school that is pretty traditional but making good strides of progress. we have almost exactly a 50/50 male/female teacher split, and the office jobs are the same. we have 4 principal and vice-principal positions, all of which had been held by the same 4 men for 25 years. they were of course getting on a bit, and a couple years ago the principal and one of the vice principals retired. one of the vice principals naturally got promoted to principal, which left 2 vice principal positions free, and they were filled by 2 senior male teachers. i was close to outraged. we were doing so well and then they pull this? to drum up a bit of support before making anything of it, i talked to some of the senior female teachers about how they felt about it. 4 of them had been offered the jobs, one was offered a second time with more money when the other 3 turned it down, and she turned it down again, all 4 giving a mixture of not wanting more hours and more responsibility, and preferred being more close to a few students than only a little contact with all of them. it was only after that the positions were then offered to male teachers.
i was then almost counter-outraged. why should any women or any men be offered more money just because the sex they happen to be differs from the sex of other people in the company? i now firmly believe in accepting people's choices, and making all offers fair and balanced. we shouldn't deny people who want a job and coax others who don't want it just to make more pleasing statistics.

Beautiful story. Had you not actually looked into the situation by talking to the women involved, you'd really be getting the wrong side of the story. Regardless of the context and theme, it's an important lesson to learn that getting both sides is very important.
I guess she was offered more money, because whoever did the hiring saw the benefit of balancing out the genders. I hope they'd consider the same if the situation was the opposite :)
yes, and we try to balance genders to make things fair to both, but then if we're offering more money to one gender that is unfair and we're doing the exact thing we're trying to avoid. if genders have the same employment opportunity that is fair, regardless of who decides to take the opportunity offered.
Yes, god forbid we base jobs on merit and instead go with the extremely sexist approach and make a position based entirely if they are the right sex for the job. We need to get that 50/50 balanced because that really makes for a quality workforce.

Lmfao
But it depends on your culture. In Chinese culture (specifically traditional ones), males are everything. Mothers are shamed on for giving birth to girls
In Saudi Arabia women aren't even allowed to leave the house without a male guardian
@@nostalgicrobot that's even sad. I heard they weren't allowed to drive cars back then
@@nostalgicrobot I'm kinda curious as to how they choose their partners. Is it some kind of lucky pick? Or based on personality stuff?
@@nomotivay I'm pretty sure they have arranged marriages.
@@nostalgicrobot it makes sense you would want a guardian to protect her and decrease her already low chances of being attacked, and also driving cars is literally responsible for most premature deaths in modern societies, gotta keep those precious valued citizens alive
Love how much empathy this guy shows. But it pairs quite well with his apparently sufficient logical skills. Might just have to subscribe
I'm sitting here watching lindys beard talk about men v.s. women...
Goddammit Lindybeige you are so goddamn charming.
6:34 cheerful caterpiller on his shoulder LMAO😂😂

You want to know what it's like to be either gender?
Just look at Twitch.
@@CARILYNF I already watch him regularly :P

Gamer Girls get all the views.

4 words.
Testicular blunt force trama.
Case closed
It hurts women even more but it is considered so obscene that people don't even joke about it.
As someone with both tits and balls, I'd rather get hit in the balls.
2 words: child birth
Here's another two words : Fuck off.
1 word: Modern day anesthetic. Shit, that's three words. And those were four words. And those were five words.
Ah well. Point stands.
2 words: Kidney stone
Even worse...
Eloquent augments, balanced too.
Eloquent comment, balanced too.
Dandvadan Eloquent comment to Tom, balanced too.
Chip Mönk Eloquent thread, balanced too.
I'd put it like this
Men: high-risk, high-reward
Women: low-risk, low-reward
Now it’s medium reward tbh
It's more like...men: high, deadly risks...hand shake
Women: attempt anything...standing ovation, high praise.....😐
@@Kris_P._Bey_Ken how so? examples please?
@@wiktoriakos2597 umm...it's an exaggeration. Like these days in American culture men aren't "good enough" but when women attempt to do anything that men do in general, they are praised and rewarded for their efforts.
@@Kris_P._Bey_Ken I get what you are saying and trust me a good example of this would be vets and army soldiers. They don`t get enough praise for their doings but otherwise, I`d say that I fail to see how this would work. I genuinely understand that you might have experienced something like this and are frustrated, maybe it does happen and i dont see it
this is all raw unedited footage.
I tip my top hat to you good sir.
The word easier can confuse people. Saying that we don't have it easier doesn't mean it's harder or that being a women is easier. It means that it has it's fair share of challenges, but it can't be just left at that of course.
Has anyone noticed the tiny thing crawling on his right shoulder after he switches hands
I keep going back to this video about once a year and every time and have new insights... love this. Thank you.
Shit is about to hit the fan
How to sleep during any flight:
1. Don't sleep the night before the flight. Picture yourselves falling to your death while kerosin burns your skin away, that might help.
2. Get some...herbs into your system.
3. Driving will be difficult at this stage so get someone to get you to the airport.
4. Don't try to smuggle anything, you will be picked out be security 100% of the times you try this.
5. Don't fall asleep at the airport.
6. Good flight :)
Ahah right, if you can't get to sleep, you just aren't tired enough.
This is the useful comment in this comments section
11:19 Is that a worm on his jacket?
I think it's a teeny caterpillar.
Jimis Man its Pete
It's a feminist worm attempting to kill Lindy to shut him up.
Dude that worm just hoped on his shoulder at 6:00 and has been on there until lindy showed you the nature clips
Lol its an inch-worm!
(or maybe a centimeter worm since hes in Switzerland ;) )
Shout-out to the caterpillar on his right shoulder at 7:00
