    Misandrist at work? There are alot of double standards that this woman preaches and fails to address. She presents a very "emotional" arguement, which on the surface is plausible, but scratch the surface and the arguments do not hold water. She constantly presents "men" as the problem, which quite simply isn't true.Alot of modrrn female behaviours have alot to do with what they are experiencing on the streets, so perhaps women need to look at their own behaviours first?

    The absolute lack of empathy, and the pure dehumanization these women display towards men is appalling! She'd probably crawl into a fetus position if she experiences first hand just how much alienation, self repression and loneliness an 'everyday' man goes through.

      I don't see any dehumanization, but I guess people see what they want to see. She's also not invalidating the men's issues you bring up, nor is it her job or responsibility to fix everything

      @@MichaelCarolina I find it funny that men always jump into defense when they see videos like this. I get your point, but the point of this video is about womens issues that are also issues for men. Maybe it is time for you to acknowledge that women do experience a lot a horrible stuff.

    Great presentation -- thank you for this. I just listened to "Fortunately" your interview at the Hay Festival with Fi and Jane. It was 5 am and I wasn't yet ready to get out of bed -- had I not been lying down, my jaw would have dropped with what you had to say about the overt sexual abuse and remarks young girls and women are still dealing with. I'm 79 years old and thought there had been progress in these areas. Keep sending your message out to the world, Laura.

      @@Donkle365 You can't see that because you are as ignorantly entitled as her. There's no need to explain to the likes of you. All I can say is Andrew Tate is famous today primarily because of feminists like Laura Bates. She and Tate are really two sides of the same coin. Both are toxic garbage of humans.
