- Radical feminism is a gift to men | Robert Jensen | TEDx Ruhr University Bochum
#tedxrub2019 #embracetheunexpected #toxicmasculinity
In this passionate talk Robert Jensen challenges the common belief that feminism is a threat to men. He argues that there are arguments from both justice and self-interest to present to men when explaining the radical feminist position, especially in the context of a critique of the sexual-exploitation industries (prostitution, pornography, stripping). In his talk Jensen reflects on his own experiences with (radical) feminism and the role of that feminism in making possible a richer, more meaningful life.
Robert Jensen is Emeritus Professor in the School of Journalism at the University of Texas in Austin, author, founding board member of the Third Coast Activist Resource Center, and part of the team developing Ecosphere Studies at The Land Institute in Salina.

TEDx RuhrUniversityBochum was started in 2016 by a group of students enthusiastic about bringing the TEDx format to the Ruhr Area. In May 2019, we turned our TEDx conference into one of the largest TEDx events in Europe organized by students. We connected over 1,000 people at our TEDx event and brought 13 speakers to Bochum who presented their ideas and visions regarding the motto "Embrace the Unexpected".
„Embrace the unexpected“ is not just a theme, it is an attitude.
It is to look courageously and curiously towards the future and confidently embrace the manifold challenges of our time. To understand the new and unexpected as a learning opportunity for progress and not as a source of uncertainty. Such an attitude is needed in a rapidly changing world, now more than ever.

"life becomes easier when you drop responsibility"
Isn't that those sole purpose of feminism?
@@esau93631 you got that bassackwards, Son. The fems are the only ones taking responsibility -
@@janelliot5643 need I say more guys, first response, we are never wrong......
I disagree. Life becomes meaningless without responsibility. IMO My responsibilities to my wife, my children, friends and wider family is what differentiates my life from a meaningless quest for things and basic survival.

Journalism departments are just as woke, unfortunately.
Activist journalism... another discipline radicalized by the ctrl-left.
Gender studies is possibly the worst misnomer in the history of academia.

That’s why people still put big labels on bleach that say “DO NOT DRINK”

Someone explain to me the joke :(
Explaxn fair enough
@@likeitornot-cg1fy they already have their color on, they just say it for the slower minded people. At least that's what I think the original post is hinting at.
"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." - Aristotle
I definitely don't agree with everything he says, but I made my goal to listen more often to opinions I'm not always ok with.
good for you, that puts you head and shoulders above most people, particularly in the age of social media rage! Btw, F.Scott Fitzgerald went a bit further than Aristotle even: "The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function."
@hikari94
I love this quote by Aristotle about openness to new ideas, and a desire to rise above our own personal bias. These are character qualities I respect in others, and strive for myself. I am curious though: Which parts of his speech do you find objectionable?
'Patriarchy' is so nebulous a term that it can mean pretty much anything.
Like the term 'the Holy Spirit', it is only taken seriously by believers.
Radical feminism aim to the total domination of man, the social parity was already achieved with the first wave of feminism. Don't be fooled like this Robert by this second and third wave of crazy and hysterical vipers full of hatred.
@@cristop5 That's not true, at all, patriarchy describes a social system, of whose institutions, favor male dominance: and the production of that dominance. Generally. There's ambiguities in all things --- it's social/political science --- but it's not meaningless. If you think about it, if there's any ideological conception, of/relating to male dominance, in our society: it's that it's "natural." Or inevitable. The world, has changed, the only thing that remains, is a very narrow, privilege in which men: can refuse to change.
"A frog living in a well, knows nothing about the vast ocean" - Japanese Proverb.

This comment section calling the speaker terms like - "simp", "wimp", "soyboy"... It says a lot about how men treat someone who does not conform to gender stereotypes. Is this what masculanity is about, calling degrading names to one another?
@UltArcRanger why is that? Most women are the ones agreeing that toxic masculinity is a thing and men should be able to wear makeup and skirts etc without being called lesser than a man
@UltArcRanger bruh you talking about candace Owens or whatever her name is? 😂 she got so ridiculed for saying we need ‘manly’ men. Just look at the fan bases for people like Harry styles and Timothee chalamet - idk your age but teens to late 20s rn are wayyy more accepting of that kinda stuff
@@verityh4918 Why is that? 😂😂😂 Most men are the ones agreeing that batshit crazy feminists is a thing and women should be able to be a good men's housewife without being called lesser than a career woman. :)
No, if you're a man who can function normally you quickly understand this guy is just projecting his own insecurities as a weak man on the entire manhood, that's why.
Everyone here is saying how he is wrong, yet I haven't seen a single argument against his points after 5 minutes of non stop scrolling through the comments. Can someone please elaborate on what you don't agree with?
Exactly the comment section is screaming misogyny
@@sx7639 youre screaming misandry and feminazi
Assumes all of us are pretending to be masculine. He might have been, we're not. Lecturing that we would all be happy to live like him is a lie. He is happy, most men would be miserable.
"..... you don't agree with". There is specific name for this reason: YT censorship. Your comment could be removed, or you are banned from posting a comment. SIMPle.
1: his argument is purely based on his own experience. so thats 1 : 7.9 billion. Its irrelevant in a discussion.
2: his whole reason he felt uncormfortable with himself are his own misconceptions about masculinity. now he only has new misconceptions. so yeah he developed, but backwards. he projects his own shortcomings onto others. He literally messed up and thinks everyone else messes up aswell. never project your own failure.
3: He embraces radical feminism. as soon as you go radical in any means you lost. Radicals are at the end of a spectrum and cannot grasp the view of what lies on the other side of that given spectrum. whenever you stop to see the arguments on the other side you literally lost the discussion already.
He is a nice person and he tries his best. Even his motives are mostly good. but that doesnt make him right at all.
The underlying question is what is the problem with radical feminism. And that one is easy enough to answer for yourself (hint it isnt about equality but gaining further priviledge)
you can tell that he practices what he preaches!
He perbert

@adam zarbon how is being respectul and decent bad???, you probably think you are not man enough to make this comments lmao

@@hyenaswine we don't need it
Yeah.

That's exactly their goal and you played right into it
The comment section is weirdly disturbing and full of people who don’t know the meaning of feminism. Anyways I love this video. Power to you :)❤️
I love it, too.
If it's so easy to misunderstand your movements, maybe it's time to realise you're the problem.
We know what feminism is. Actions speak louder than words.
Feminism = misandry
It's pretty easy to understand why that is when it's so poorly defined and used by a whole range of people, from those who openly admit their hatred of men and desire for special treatment, to those who claim it's only about equal rights. Either way, both sides of the spectrum are ridiculous.
ironic. giving him power would empower the patriarchy.
I like how the men in the comments didn't even watch the video, but got triggered by the title alone 🤣
@Gi So LOL sure, buddy. Conservatism is the ideology of hypocrisy and lack of logic, thus the strong ties it has to religion.

@@13e11even11 feminism actually fights for mens rights as well but ok
Annual Violence Policy Center (VPC) study “When Men Murder Women: An Analysis of 2019 Homicide Data.”
Now in its 24th year, the VPC study consistently finds that women who are murdered by men are almost always killed by someone they know. This year’s study found that nationwide, 91 percent of women killed by men were murdered by someone they knew and that the most common weapon used was a gun.
In 2019, for homicides in which the weapon used could be identified, 58 percent of female victims were shot and killed with a firearm. Of the homicides committed with guns, 65 percent were killed with a handgun. The number of women shot and killed by their husband or intimate acquaintance was more than three and a half times the total number murdered by male strangers using all weapons combined.
Not really getting your point. Yeah, murders generally happen between people that are emotionally invested in each other. Is this a revelation to you?
@@gametime2473
May be more of a point to you - if - it was women ending men that way..
You actually missed the point entirely. So natural - to think of ladies being hurt or injured by men. A day to day event since the beginning - does not excuse or make it righteousness. Certainly not acceptable - at least not to women.
As if it is a right of passage to kill..smaller ones.
Go ahead wave it away - sweep it under the carpet - really not important. got it..
But ladies are buying guns like crazy so expect the results to alter now. everyone has the right & duty to defend self from harm.
Please talk about per capita levels if you actually want me to care. Saying "killed by their husband or intimate acquaintance was more than three and a half times the total number murdered by male strangers" tells me nothing about how many people that actually is. If one woman is killed by a stranger then seven were killed by their husbands. Are eight women killed enough for me to adopted radical feminism? What are the actual numbers? Are more women killed now than 10 years ago? 25 years ago? 100 years ago?

@B9 113 you wish I was joking
Update: I forgot to say I was joking 😂 the people that liked my comment probably thought I was serious
@Juno Buno while I understand that many feminists want equality, there is many more who see woman above men and completely disregard masculinity and mens feelings.
@Juno Buno that's not the point I was making. I was saying that, while there are good feminists, there are many more bad feminists, tunnel visioned on toxic feminality
He's got an imaginary enemy and is bothering everybody else with it.
I was informed at work that men were no longer being considered for promotions. Is that "not a threat to men?"
@@lilspam1781 that was Stantec consulting. They have established quotas for the future which requires them to be ousting men from leadership with women for the next roughly 10 years. So heads up. Good luck on your search.
yep... i agree.. there's now an agenda to have the office space dominated by women. men are now better off as entrepreneurs and professionals and risk intensive transactions.
@@Andy-gq5hb Diversity through Quotas !
Surely it should be seen as equal? Wouldn’t it just mean that more women are getting boosted to a position that is already mainly men so it becomes equal? Besides you won’t get a promotion just because of your gender
@@verityh4918 Well it depends on whether you mean equal rights or equal outcomes. Those two things are diametrically opposed to each other. If you give everyone the same rights you will never have the same outcomes. And you will never get the same outcomes without discriminating against certain people. I prefer the first. And just because we have 80% men on our board in a field with 80% men in general doesn't mean that I as an individual have ever been granted the opportunity to lead. Instead you treat humans like totems of their race and so you rob or privilege them. It is an afront to human dignity.

You sir win this comments section.
best TLDR in the comments!
ROFL
I think the most common thing in this type of thinking is the broken logical chain. At any of the points he makes, he says, let me argue against it, and then slowly drifts into his next point. For example the frase "As evidence let me bring my life."
I agree. To me, he memorized passages that he reads mentally while trying to synchronize it with him flicking through his PowerPoint, hitting unexpected bumps here and there in the process but attempting at same time to make those bumps seemless while the attentive viewer can detect those bumps explicitly by noticing those digression into the next point, which culminates in a complicating factor that makes the whole video very confusing than it being a source that could explain those complicated issues he promised to take in his lecture. Well, even what I have said seems very confusing to me! Whatever!

For example: One of the biggest isuues is the traditional societal pressure that a man should be the breadwinner in a family. This result that on one side women are being disencouraged on the working field. But on the other side putting more pressure on men, resulting in less help for them in hard times causing there to be more male homeless people. Roughly said without putting in the nuances.
But you enlighten me how the average male in the west is still more privileged than the average female. Because I really don't see it.
3 1 / 0 3 it must feel great being a woman.
All that applause at the end were women
Every person’s body is their own. The problem is that a woman can make a choice about her body that affects a man. If he doesn’t want a child, she makes her choice and then sues him successfully for child support. So her choice, which is her own, affects not just herself. She should still be able to make that choice, but the law should take into account the man’s position as her decision affects his life too. If he supports her decision and wants to pay support - he should have a place as father in that child’s life legally and physically. If he doesn’t, and she makes that choice - she did so willingly and he shouldn’t be forced to pay that. Contraceptives are in abundance and you cannot blame one or the other for the pregnancy, but we aren’t close to fairness.
So basically forcing her by the state to carry a man’s child she doesnt want for 9 months, birth the man’s child while he may or may not abuse her and the kid or get bored and leave in a few years ANd he should have a place in that child life? Naoo y’all ain’t ready for that talk. 🍿
@@checynhadi2815 who is forcing her? She still has the ultimate say, but if she chooses to carry the child and wants support, that support comes with a father figure in that kids life. If he decides he isn’t interested in parenthood and she decides to carry anyway - that’s her choice, but she alone carries the burden.b. We all make choices and each one has a consequence.
@@checynhadi2815 I'm more than ready for that talk, you let your personal biases distort your view of reality. It would be quite easy to pick apart your arguments.
@@vladtheinhaler8940 look at your comments. Leave her, force her, etc. My bias? I can tear through victimization mentality very easily.
The creativity of these comments is sooo ENTERTAINING
I come down every once and a while to see if people have gotten more creative😄
Brilliant. So many boys are triggered by this. lol Stir the pot man. That creates change! If they listen and still don't get it, they need to hear it again!

we’re still so far from a world like this… but i hope one day we can live in a world where all understand the destructive nature of the patriarchy. ❤
let me tell u something maam, i was born a muslim, and i was told that we muslims we control women so i stopped talking to women believing i was born guilty because i am a man, but after i realized that the great majority of women are attracted to jerks and want to compete for the same man resulting in a polygamy of relationships whereby a minority of men get all the women, i can say it proudly I A MAN. if women want change, they need to stop dating jerks and stop competing for the same man, otherwise, dont even dream of change, women are supporting toxic masculinity by educating us about it during the day and dating toxic masculine guys during the night, we are fed up with theories
Sorry, patriarchy is the right idea. One day women will also understand it's charm, and will ask for it themselves.
...You think Western patriarchy is destructive...?? You haven't seen anything yet.
This video also proves why modern day feminism is literally sexism against men in general and hatred towards average men anyone is capable enough to understand how they have just waged a war against men
Boy this definitely isn't nonsense
jesus christ. the comment section in this video is unbelievable lmao. i wonder how many even bothered to finish it, or even listen.
It’s all angry misogynists who don’t like being called out lmao
The thumbs up to thumbs down ratio already says enough... no need to watch the entire video

I believe in absolute gender separatism and cloning instead of reproduction, that solves like most of the world's problems
Cloning ? What's the purpose when we can use bone marrow and another woman's egg and reproduce with entirely female humans. Y chromosone beings would never be able to do something like that. Carry a being to term. If you look at most pack of large animals in the wild, they are all matriarchs. Lion's, elephants, whales, etc. Men shouldn't be at the top of the chain.
@@dh.151 You win the Bullsh*t of the year award

thats an amzing idea, two separte countries for men and women, and both get provided with the same amount of new borns every year....
That’s actually a good idea, keeping men as far away as possible from us is the only way to live a happy, healthy, long life
What a confident man, man over 10 minutes of saying absolutely nothing..
Exactly, he provided no detail or examples of whatever point he was trying to make.
Notice how radical feminism has turned a perfectly capable man into more the character of a woman, where he can't speak plainly or clearly about what he's opening his mouth for. It's completely unclear what his message or example is.
just like your brain.
cry you incel 😂😭
@Nonaya Bidness he said plenty, however it wasn't meaningful in any way. He is nothing more than a political activist masquerading as something he isn't.
4:19 "he wasn't man enough"
NOBODY is man enough. It's a thing of growth. If you stop trying to be more man you loose it all.
he is basically saying that society makes men think they are not men enough but he is saying that's harmful
Why can’t men just be a bit more feminine?
@@elmercoello8046 this is allowed, the ideals of masculinity are not in dichotomy with femininity
What he says is right! I study mechanical engineering and my classmates are all boys. They strongly deny talking about social or technical stuff with me, and they only expected me to flirt. I was expected to be an object of entertainment, not a human being.
Such things strongly exist people!
Don’t project the behaviour of your beta male classmates onto all men
@@blast2686 well it's interesting because since last month I moved to Armenia and the behavior of not only most men but also many women are more pleasant. So I found out that social influences and society classes play a big role of what people become, and how they think. I have became more Optimistic that men and women can understand each other and feel secure. We need more Optimistic people so that we can. overcome people who degrade not only women but also men. We are all facing a change in human believes and I wish it will be wonderful for u.

whats wrong with this guy men have legitimate issues that need attention.
What is wrong with this guy is that he is a liar.
He needs therapy to move on from the practices he made
It is a gift because it shows female nature clearly, society in recent years has mad with so everything women do is great abd fantastic and everything guys do is terrible.
As such it's easy to tell who's horrible because they can do what they want without consequences and that's when people show their true colours.
Always judge folks on how they behave when they think either noone is looking or there's no judgement.
NO MORE.
This is ridiculous. What authority gives men authority? I am nearly 50 and have no authority over anyone and don’t want it. To make such a claim is outrageous.
Hmmm idk Dominic maybe centuries of a thing called the…Patriarchy…but you wouldn’t know anything about that now from that privileged life 👋🏽
@@checynhadi2815 privileged life? Have you gone mad? My life was a horror show topped with with terminal disease at 48. Tell you what, hand over your gender and victimization and you can go enjoy this patriarchy. Patriarchy is maybe a .000000000000001 % of men like the Koch brothers. The rest of us work ourselves to death building nothing with someone we know will leave us the second she thinks someone else can spend more on her.
@@checynhadi2815 Centuries of an imaginary thing gives men authority?
We don't have authority. It's only people who are brainwashed by the cult who believe this nonsense.

Wow, the comments. Robert Jensen is a renowned author and speaker and still no one listens to his words. Men's insecurities come out of the woodwork when we point out the flaws in patriarchy. Everything he says is true.
Lol. The very premise of his entire life's work is flawed from the get go. Patriarchy is not some malevolent institution. Its how things worked itself out on its own. Not saying it shouldnt be corrected. But radical feminism is in itself a terrible tool to try and fix things.
@gypsy lab You're not even making sense, you're just some troll.
Robert Jensen is a political activist who wrote books with no actual worth. If recognizing and calling out this guy out for being the political activist and grifter that he is upsets you, it's you that has insecurities. You can't even point out what makes society a patriarchy, much less flaws in it.
They are so fragile...
