[Ridge Forrester]

I would have deleted the email and gone about my day.

Thread went funny
To those trying to demonize me I think that’s just immaturity, on your side not mine.

A question should never spark outrage or claims of bigotry.
Well… ok some questions I guess but those questions are usually clearly a quanzer.

I don’t understand the attack on the op. I think it’s a reasonable question. He didn’t say women shouldn’t be helped, he just questioned why women were the only benefactors when men suffer the same experiences, if not at a higher rate than women. Normally there is a reason why one group is targeted over others, and he just wants to know what it is.

If the reason is that homeless women tend to have children, then that would be a valid reason. But why is it wrong to ask the question. That’s part of the problem with society today. Dudes can’t even ask a question without being called a name. We’re doomed

This is a message board. The sole purpose is to do what he’s doing. You’re just calling it bytching and moaning because you don’t agree.

Also, he never suggested that women shouldn’t be helped.

Finally, why does someone have to take on homelessness themselves to ask a question about why the program is designed the way it is? He didn’t do anything but ask a question because it didn’t make sense to him. How about I go through every post you make about legislation that you don’t agree with, assuming you talk about those thing, and ask “why are you complaining, you should just do ______ yourself”

The difference is that he’s not claiming that one group shouldn’t be helped or doesn’t deserve help. He’s saying that based on his observations, men probably need just as much help as women, if not more, so why is was driver for that distinction.

He didn’t make a definitive statement, he asked a question, which is the major difference. All Lives Matter people weren’t asking any questions, they decided in their minds that Black Lives Matter wasn’t a righteous cause and decided to undermine it. I’m willing to bet if someone responded with a logical and legitimate explanation to why homeless women need more support than men, he’d probably walk his statement back.

We all know why “Girls Who Code” was created. Because women are underrepresented in in Tech. The man just wants to understand the program, lol

This dude is allegedly grown with a job, let him speak for himself, sir

you know you dont have to be an incel
fakkit every damn day right?
it's ok to take a day or two off fakkit.
Imagine if they said black women.
this nikka would have quit his job.

This took me out, because I imagine Morris pausing after each line to slick his coiffe back

You should look into how common sexual assault and abuse is for homeless women and children. It’s depressing.

If anything, there's not a lot of focus on homeless families. On that note, OP you are not seeing the big woe when it comes down to women being homeless. shyt goes beyond gender and all that other bullshyt. Women have to deal with the following:

• Getting raped and manipulated in the shelters (I seen two workers do that shyt for myself as far as manipulation for sex)
• Having to deal with the mentally ill and being in harms way (what a few jawns dealt with at the shelter I was living in)
• Dealing with favoritism and racism
• Nasty conditions

Men on the other hand can just hit up a Salvation Army, group house, or etc where they can get a gig and get by. Hell, the fact that a friggin pastor told my family and I to be separated from each other in order to get a shelter in a first place is a bitter pill to swallow. Its gross to actually create a thread like this because even if its voluntary or by pay...fukk the idea of having such a mentality to the homeless because of "gender" nonsense. Hell, you should jump on it because of GP. Hell we all should jump on the shyt because of how blessed majority of us are (from being in apartments, homes, and etc). There should be time to give because folks that are homeless will never see that opportunity because of circumstances of this fukking country.


Normally I am the most calm and laxed person on the Coli, but I'm damn near about to negged

ya i completely agree women have it worse
but when i see homeless people I usually mostly see men

Not to say women being homeless is not a thing, you go around NY you'll see a few sleeping on cardboard boxes in the heat of the sun.

It just doesn't feel right I guess...

OP isn’t trying to hate on women

I get his point. And it’s a fair one ..

I’m not about to sit there and vet everyone I donate to . Thats why donations are usually General.

I’ve probably given change to male and female killers alike

 

[born of fire]

i've heard stories of homeless women smearing their own shyt on themselves to smell worse so they don't get raped as often. they have it worse

 

[Ahadi]

I completely understand it. You should form your own initiative or donate and bring awareness to another initiative highlighting men.

You are correct with your beliefs & don’t let anyone else move you away from that.

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

Ain’t nobody trying to focus on no grown men



You better hop on the back of a truck with them Mexicans and go pick some tomatoes

Oh shyt that’s horrible

Whats funny and exposes you is that you only cared when it came up at work. To help the homeless. You didnt give a fukk before. But now that its on your bandwidth, you stand on the “no double standard” tip?

You need much more help than thecoli can provide. Maybe a psychologist.

 

[Wildin]

the only logical and rational answer is most women's centers are women and children's centers. Homeless women tend to have their kids with them.

I work in the field and have a center connected to my job, it is a woman and kids shelter. I've never seen a men and kids shelter. Although there are homeless men who have their kids with them.
