No, my friend, they're just telling you what you want to hear. I won't tell you that everything that passes today as feminism is right. But Peterson claiming, for example, that the gender pay gap is due to "women not being assertive enough" is BS. If that were the case it wouldn't apply to actresses, since they employ AGENTS to make their deals. Anyone who's ever spent a good deal of their lives in the job market knows that very assertive and capable women are still paid less than their male counterparts, even if they're single and not in "danger" of pregnancy. Don't let me start about his ridiculous notion of "authoritarian tolerance" expressed through a plus-sized model on a magazine cover. If he doesn't like it he can abstain from buying it. That's how his beloved free market works, not by dictating what a magazine can or cannot put on its cover. If there was any logic in his arguments once, it has long since left the building. It takes just minutes to debunk most of Peterson's "critical thinking".

As for Andrew Tate... he's a disgrace to men everywhere. Here he is admitting that he thinks a woman belongs to a man when they're in a relationship. He didn't say that he'd object to the woman he's with exposing herself via OnlyFans, which would be legitimate and he could just walk away, but he thinks she'd owe him a cut for it. The reverse, of course, is not acceptable.

If that makes sense to you, Robin, well I'm sorry.
