Q. What are some notable songs that get especially dissonant, and then resolve beautifully?Another Take On The 'Appoggiatura'Readers recommend: discordant songs – the resultsMusical Dissonance, From Schumann to SondheimAnother Take On The 'Appoggiatura'Heard on All Things ConsideredA musical device called an appoggiatura can cause a reaction in people's brains that is instrumental in making a song sad. Adele song "Someone Like You" as an example. Some listeners say we got it wrong, so Melissa Block talks with composer, conductor and music commentator Rob Kapilow to set the record straight.MELISSA BLOCK, HOST:And now, an appoggiatura apologia. That word again...UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN: Appoggiatura.Adele - Someone Like You(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "SOMEONE LIKE YOU")ADELE: (Singing) I heard that you're settled down, that you...BLOCK: Yesterday on the program, we discussed why Adele's Grammy-winning ballad "Someone Like You" is such a tearjerker. And we mentioned research showing that music with what's known as appoggiaturas evokes especially strong emotional reactions. We defined an appoggiatura as something not unlike a grace note, sometimes dissonant, that resolves into a main note. And we use this vocal dip when Adele sings the word you as an example.Adele - Someone Like You (Lyrics)(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "SOMEONE LIKE YOU")ADELE: (Singing) Never mind, I'll find someone like you.BLOCK: I cringed at Shutter's listener, Marcus Maroney of Houston. The slight flip on you is clearly not an appoggiatura. He goes on to say, an appoggiatura, or leaning note, must occur on the beat and be half the length of the main note value. To put it simply, the appoggiatura must produce an accented dissonance, not merely a fleeting one. And by way of example, Mr. Maroney points us to the word connection when Kermit the Frog sings "Rainbow Connection."Kermit Sings "The Rainbow Connection" - The Muppets(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "RAINBOW CONNECTION")JIM HENSON: (Singing as Kermit) Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.BLOCK: And, in The Beatles' song, "We Can Work It Out," Mr. Maroney steers us to the words: my way and your way.The Beatles - We Can Work it Out(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "WE CAN WORK IT OUT")THE BEATLES: (Singing) Try to see it my way. Do I have to keep on talking 'til I can't go on? Why you see it your way?BLOCK: Well, for more insight into the appoggiatura, we have reached the composer and conductor, Rob Kapilow. He's the man behind the series called "What Makes It Great," which explains great works of music.Rob Kapilow, help us out here. Those examples that we just heard, are those actual appoggiaturas?ROB KAPILOW: You know, I think it's words like this that make people hate classical music or even hate people who like classical music. You know, I mean, these are fussy definitions for things that just happen naturally in music. Yes, if you want to be really technical in your own music theory classroom. Yes, in truth, the real definition is an accented leaning note on the beat and if I were in a music theory class, I would go with something like this.(SOUNDBITE OF MUSIC)Adele - Someone like you live at Royal Albert Hall HDKAPILOW: Appoggiatura resolution.There's absolutely no rule about how long it has to be, but at heart, it simply means a dissonance that resolves to a consonance.BLOCK: You're there at your piano at your home in New Jersey, and help us out again. Does an appoggiatura have to be a downward step? Does it have to be resolving from a higher note to a lower note?KAPILOW: No. In fact, it can go in any direction and, in fact, the very first note of Mozart, "A Minor Sonata..."Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Sonata No. 8 in A minor, K. 310/300dwritten in 1778 is a sonata in three movements: 1. Allegro maestoso, common time 2. Andante cantabile con espressione, F major, 3/4 3. Presto, 2/4. The A minor sonata is the first of only two Mozart piano sonatas to have been composed in a minor key. Written around the time of the death of Mozart's mother, it is one of his darkest sonatas. The last movement in particular has an obsessive, haunted quality about it, heightened near the end by the interruption of the relentless drive to the conclusion by repeated and chilling quiet falling passages.(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "A MINOR SONATA")KAPILOW: ...starts lower. It can be lower. It can be upper. And all it has to do is be an accented dissonance on a beat, if you want to be really pedantic, resolving either up or down. But the really heart of it is that it's a dissonance.(SOUNDBITE OF MUSIC)KAPILOW: And then resolves to a consonance and that's what your scientist was really talking about, that dissonance-consonance relationship, tension release. It's what we have in mystery stories. It's what we have in music and it's been there from time immemorial.BLOCK: Let's think about the song, "Someone Like You." Maybe we got the wrong part of the song. Are you hearing other appoggiaturas in there?KAPILOW: Oh, there are appoggiaturas all over.BLOCK: Oh, good.KAPILOW: In fact, you know, even at the beginning - in fact, what makes it very beautiful at the beginning, when she does this note here.Adele performing Someone Like You | BRIT Awards 2011(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "SOMEONE LIKE YOU")KAPILOW: The that your is - this is the chord. This note, that, is actually dissonant to the chord and then resolves quickly. Also, down here, when it's found a girl and you're - that's another one. And you're. In fact, almost every time that comes in...(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "SOMEONE LIKE YOU")KAPILOW: ...those two notes are part of the beauty of the song and then, in fact, at the end of the next phrase.(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "SOMEONE LIKE YOU")KAPILOW: It's always dissonance resolving to consonance. And, in fact, that is at the heart of the opening of the song.BLOCK: Composer and conductor Rob Kapilow, thanks very much for helping us out with the appoggiatura today.KAPILOW: Hope you do better on your AP music theory exam now.BLOCK: I'll do my best.(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "SOMEONE LIKE YOU")Copyright © 2012 NPR.

(My favorite Adele song)Readers recommend: discordant songsWhether deliberately dissonant or simply playing out of tune, there's a thrilling world of uneasy listening out thereJon Dennis Thu 10 Feb 2011 17.22 GMTArt of noise ... open your ears to the exhilarating sounds of discordant songs. Photograph: Sarah Lee for the GuardianCaroleBristol identified three separate topics within this week's theme: "records that deliberately use dissonance", "records that have mistakes in them" and "inept records that work despite their limitations". Perhaps I shouldn't have lumped them all together. In any event, it's been an exhilarating week's listening.I think we can safely say the Shaggs fall into the third of CaroleBristol's groups. Wow, that guitar is out of tune! But would even a nudge towards pitch-perfection improve My Pal Foot Foot? I'd argue not.But many records that could be described as discordant don't fall into any of those categories. Recordings made after the wide availability of autotune technology tend to be more "in tune" than earlier cuts. Twentieth-century audiences accepted levels of discordance that would be unacceptable to modern listeners. I don't think Lee "Scratch" Perry could be accused of ineptitude, but neither was he exactly a stickler for perfect tuning. He plays by his own rules. Once we accept this, we can see the genius of a track such as Soul Fire. Removing musical constraints reveals some delightful surprises.Similarly, Gétatchèw Mèkurya isn't deliberately dissonant, and he is a fine saxophonist. Mèkurya claimed not to have heard Ornette Coleman or Albert Ayler, but drew instead from traditional Ethiopian forms. He was among a range of Ethiopian and Eritrean artists making the most beautiful music in the 1960s and 1970s gathered on the Ethiopiques series. It has a groove, soul, and scant regard for European or American conventions.Contort Yourself welds atonal, freeform jazz to a funky rhythm that'd be tight enough for James Brown. Result? Classic of New York's "no wave" scene that spawned noiseniks Sonic Youth. Arrgh! Hit it! Meanwhile, in Bristol, the Pop Group were cooking up We are all Prostitutes. It seems funky, scratchy rebel music was coming at us from all sides as the 80s dawned.Punk ideology insisted that making music did not require virtuosity. The Raincoats were hugely inspirational in large part for this reason, and The Void is a strangely moving highlight of their debut album. It's a shambles, but has more musical ideas than many artists achieve in their entire career.Hard to say whether Merzbow's Minus Zero is discordant or not.

But it’s not that simple. And the subtleties of musical dissonance have become harder to keep straight as the term has been increasingly embraced by other fields, like American politics, where reporters speak of the growing “dissonance” between the two major parties, or psychology, which invented the term cognitive dissonance to describe a state of stress arising from internal contradiction.The term was bandied about in music circles more than usual last year when the 100th anniversary of the 1913 Paris premiere of Stravinsky’s “The Rite of Spring” was acknowledged with performances around the world and commemorative recordings. Sony Classical released a 10-CD anniversary collection with touchstone recordings, from Leopold Stokowski’s landmark 1929-30 version with the Philadelphia Orchestra through Michael Tilson Thomas’s 1996 live recording with the San Francisco Symphony. This set includes takes on the score by, among others, Pierre Monteux, who conducted the Paris premiere, Leonard Bernstein and Stravinsky himself, twice.So, what is dissonance in music? Let me try to explain.VIDEO By Gabe Johnson 6:03Dissonance: Stravinsky, Bach and MozartVideoDissonance: Stravinsky, Bach and MozartAnthony Tommasini, classical music critic for The New York Times, talks about dissonance in the work of Stravinsky, Bach and Mozart.

Watch in Times Video »is available here." data-content-type="video">As Milton suggested, dissonance certainly results from the grating combination of harsh, clashing tones. At the premiere of “Rite,” the music seemed so brutal, raw and wailing that a melee broke out in the audience. The piece still has shock value, though its power comes as much from rhythm (the pummeling chords, the annihilation of regular meter) as from dissonance-saturated harmonies.But discordant sounds are just one element of dissonance. One reason the term is elusive is that the concept is both subjective (“What is harmony to one ear, may be dissonance to another,” as the writer Joseph Addison put it in 1711) and contextual. In a musical work that is harmonically soothing overall, even a mildly pointed dissonant chord will stand out.The barbarous kind of dissonance is the easiest for listeners to discern, like the obsessively repeated chords at the opening of the “Dance of the Adolescents” in Part 1 of “Rite.” Yet those pummeling chords, for all their raw power, are like the harmonic equivalent of hammer strokes: thump, thump, thump, thump. The real impact, though, comes from the rhythmic drive here: Stravinsky keeps hitting you with accented thumps that arrive irregularly, on beats when you don’t expect them.But the more intriguing, subtle and, for composers, handy kind of dissonance involves intervals — that is, the combination of notes that create an acoustical, harmonic tension demanding resolution. The clearest example is the major seventh, the interval that is just one little half-step shy of being an octave. If you think of Maria teaching the “do, re, mi” major scale to the children of Captain von Trapp in “The Sound of Music,” I’m talking about the span from that first “do” to the seventh note, “ti.” The major seventh is a pretty dissonant dissonance. Yet, when you hear it, your ear is already thinking ahead, in a sense, to the nice holistic octave that is sure to follow, bringing relief and stability.This kind of dissonance has, in effect, a crucial rhythmic component as well. Sometimes a series of chords (think of a familiar hymn sung in four-part harmony by a church choir) will unfold in a way described as progressive harmony. This does not mean hip, newfangled harmony. It means that one chord leads to, or progresses to, the next.Bach is full of this kind of dissonance, with basically harmonious chords that have slightly unstable intervals within, intervals that demand resolution. Bach was a master of suspension, in which a note or two from one chord is suspended, or prolonged, as the other notes of the chord move on to the next in the series. In the moment of suspension, you accept the clash of tones (the dissonance) because your ear anticipates how the notes are going to straighten themselves out.In his own subtle ways, Mozart could also be Mr. Dissonance. He loved to spike passages of themes written in beguiling consonance with little dissonant notes, just a step above or below the destination spot, sounds that in the moment are dissonant, but playfully so.VIDEO By Gabe Johnson 1:21Dissonance: SchumannVideoDissonance: SchumannAnthony Tommasini, classical music critic for The New York Times, talks about dissonance in the music of Robert Schumann.By Gabe Johnson on Publish Date May 30, 2014. Photo by Hulton Archive/Getty Images. Watch in Times Video »Romantic-era composers loved to milk and savor moments of dissonance to enhance the emotional impact of a crucial turn in a piece. Schumann, for one. An example I love comes in “Ich kann’s nicht fassen, nich glauben” (“I can’t understand it, I don’t believe it”) from Schumann’s song cycle “Frauenliebe und Leben” (“A Woman’s Love and Life”). The woman singing is almost incredulous that a man she desires seems to have chosen her. “Let me die in this dream,” she says. Sure enough, there is a foreboding in the suspenseful, poignant music of this song, especially at the end, where a short melodic piano phrase repeats three times, each time slipping up to a slightly higher top note. That final melodic peak is enhanced by an achingly dissonant chord full of inner tension that demands harmonic relief, relief that eventually comes as the phrase, and the song, ends quietly.VIDEO By Gabe Johnson 1:32Dissonance: SondheimVideoDissonance: SondheimAnthony Tommasini, classical music critic for The New York Times, talks about dissonance in the music of Stephen Sondheim.By Gabe Johnson on Publish Date May 30, 2014. Photo by Sara Krulwich/The New York Times. Watch in Times Video »There’s a sort of Schumannesque use of dissonance in Stephen Sondheim’s song “Johanna” from “Sweeney Todd.” There are examples galore of gnashing, aggressive dissonance in Mr. Sondheim’s music, including parts of “Sweeney.” But “Johanna” is a love ode, sung by the smitten young sailor Anthony to the winsome young woman he has just seen from afar. “I feel you, Johanna,” he sings, his melody soaring over chords in the orchestra that unfold note by note, the pitches stacking up, so you hear each harmonic component: an E flat chord juiced with an F (the ninth). These pungent notes suggest an angst that comes out more in the next phrase.Anthony continues: “I was half convinced I’d waken,/Satisfied enough to dream you.” At the moment he prolongs the word “dream,” the music has a piercing, dissonant cluster, like a “blue note” in jazz, To me, there is a dramatic subtext in this musical moment — in the whole song, really. To Anthony, Johanna seems the essence of innocent young female beauty. But Johanna is the ward of the powerful and twisted Judge Turpin, and, we find out, a troubled girl. (The New York Philharmonic’s recent concert version of “Sweeney Todd” will be broadcast on PBS stations on Sept. 26.)VIDEO By Gabe Johnson 1:03Dissonance: CoplandVideoDissonance: CoplandAnthony Tommasini, classical music critic for The New York Times, talks about dissonance in the music of Aaron Copland.By Gabe Johnson on Publish Date May 30, 2014. Photo by Associated Press. Watch in Times Video »A composer like Copland never really gave up on tonality, at least a loose kind of tonality, as the basis for a musical language (except at the very end of his career). But Copland reveled in bracing, bold dissonant harmonies. The opening of his Piano Sonata is a good example, where the theme, stated in stirring, spare chords, stops for a moment on what may seem a harsh harmony. Yet you can almost hear Copland at that moment proclaiming: “Just listen to that unabashed dissonance. Isn’t it wonderful?” Exactly that quality comes through on a 1947 recording featuring Bernstein playing the piano, available on “Bernstein: The Early Years” from RCA.VIDEO By Gabe Johnson 2:00Dissonance: SchoenbergVideoDissonance: SchoenbergAnthony Tommasini, classical music critic for The New York Times, talks about dissonance in the music of Arnold Schoenberg.By Gabe Johnson on Publish Date May 30, 2014.

Watch in Times Video »During the early 20th century, we know, harmonic languages became increasingly experimental, even radical, and composers like Schoenberg broke away from tonality, the system of major and minor keys. Schoenberg’s atonal musical style is by definition full of dissonance. But he spoke of “emancipating the dissonance.” His idea was that if the composer and the listener would just let go of major and minor moorings, we could all revel in the daring and intense beauty of dissonance. In Schoenberg’s piano pieces, music I love, you hear him in the midst of his emancipation project, savoring all those affecting and powerful dissonant sounds.VIDEO By Gabe Johnson 1:17Dissonance: JazzVideoDissonance: JazzAnthony Tommasini, classical music critic for The New York Times, talks about dissonance in jazz.By Gabe Johnson on Publish Date May 30, 2014. Photo by Bob Parent/Getty Images. Watch in Times Video »Jazz composers, in slightly different ways, also emancipated the dissonance, though they seldom invoked the concept or used the term. In jazz, those variously dissonant seventh chords become building blocks of the harmonic language. To oversimplify, almost every chord is a kind of seventh chord. If a musical language is saturated with seventh chords, then the harshness of that embedded interval becomes the norm, not the exception, which softens the dissonance without sacrificing the pungency.Gershwin savored all those juicy seventh chords and such. This is what lends tangy flavors and impish energy to his harmonic language. Just listen to his Three Preludes for Piano. You can hear the master himself on “From Gershwin’s Time,” a Sony release.VIDEO By Gabe Johnson 2:44Dissonance: GershwinVideoDissonance: GershwinAnthony Tommasini, classical music critic for The New York Times, talks about dissonance in the music of George Gershwin.By Gabe Johnson on Publish Date May 30, 2014. Photo by Lebrecht Music & Arts/Corbis. Watch in Times Video »It’s important to keep in mind the contextual aspect to dissonance, whatever the era of music history. Dissonance evolved over time. Stravinsky’s dissonant language — and certainly Schoenberg’s, and even Gershwin’s — took some adjusting to. In every era, many listeners, among them critics, were not just resistant but hostile to these new sounds.Writing about a work that is today a beloved staple of the repertory, a prominent Boston newspaper critic in 1883 described the score as “full of irritant and restless discords.”The piece in question? Brahms’s magnificent First Symphony.

OK:First of all, I am glad that you placed ‘wrong’ in parentheses, because this is one of many questions I’ve come across some of which I was requested to answer, with the structure, “I think/feel [unpopular opinion.] Is this bad? Am I wrong?”As (I assume, correct me if I am wrong) a grown adult, you should not need to ask for the Internet’s permission for you to think and feel a certain way. In fact you could give a damn about our opinion, and perhaps that’d be healthier than what you’re doing.And yes I know the dangers of moral relativism, especially reading some of the other answers on this, which is why I won’t Godwin this up, but being laissez-faire is better than being authoritarian. It i frankly concerning that people are expecting their thoughts to be policed. Clearly shame culture is doing a good job of keeping dissenters from the Party line at bay.Secondly, I can’t blame you when Quora Moderation collapsed Jamie Scoverski ’s answer which got to some of the root of the problem, IMHO.You say that ‘MRA seems petty.’ I’m not repeating the laundry list of sexism against men here, although I’ll list a couple of relevant examples. The purpose of this answer is to demonstrate how I believe that you have actually been-drum roll-socially and perhaps genetically conditioned, to feel this way about putting yourself first.Instead I’ll bring up this ‘petty’ example: one of my FeMRA friends is a counsellor who specialises in helping men who have faced domestic violence, abuse, and parental alienation. One of her clients committed suicide when he lost hope that he’d ever win against the courts. That’s a dead man over these ‘petty issues.’Would you dare call male-on-female rape petty? I don’t think I would. But by the way, just because ‘I can’t get a girlfriend’ is not a ‘rights’ issue, does not mean that the insecurities and vulnerability to being attracted to manipulative toxic people as a result of a man’s low self esteem, does not ultimately contribute via domino effect to these horrendous biased divorce settlements, incidents where a guy is falsely accused of abuse when he has been gas-lit by an abusive woman, and mental health breakdowns.Equally, the majority of these issues may not be legal or civic rights deprivations-although frankly, some ARE-but, they are still sexist forms of discrimination and prejudice which tremendously hurt men financially, emotionally, and legally. Have you looked at the demographic of men most likely to commit suicide? It’s divorced middle aged men, followed by men 16–30 years old; the majority of ‘Incels’ getting creep-shamed, assumed to be a priori prone to rape and feel entitled to rape or abuse simply because of male privilege and chauvinism, etc. Sources available upon request.____________Let’s sum up the stances of the other answersi) Pro-men’s ‘rights’ with acceptance that feminists may have some legit points too and there’s actually some ground to meet halfwayii) Sexism against men is bad, patriarchy hurts men too. However MRAs are misogynists, so don’t listen to them. We need more Feminism.iii) Men’s issues are serious, 3rd wave feminism is problematic, but MRAs have lots of issues and nothing men face is as bad as what women did historicallyiv) Sexism against men is bad, patriarchy hurts men too, ergo we need more feminism, end of discussion.v) [Subtly implying that empathy isn’t a one-way street bro]vi) Sexism against men is bad, patriarchy hurts men too. However MRA is mostly whining, no one owes you shit.vii) 2 answers telling you each to their own, trying to demonstrate moral high ground and challenge public perceptions of MRAsviii) Martin actually discusses his being a victim of child abuse, and his friend a victim of gynocentric, gender essentialist (or patriarchal if you look at it that way) courts. I’ve already brought up an incident from my friend. Suddenly the stories of ‘patriarchy hurting men too’ are as real as a woman’s trauma of being raped or abused.The common theme of all of the above is a refusal to monopolise victimhood-with the brave exception of Martin.Why would men do that? It’s seen from one of the most common complaints espoused by feminists; “men aren’t allowed to express vulnerability.” And you know what, damn right we’re not, and that’s damn wrong. Something is fucked up when we’re the primary gender to commit suicide ‘successfully.’Why can’t we express self-victimhood?i) because it compromises our social status. You do know that welfare programs aren’t designed to help men, right? Listen to this from an interview with US conservative pundit Tomi Lahren:Tomi Lahren Final Thoughts - 2/25/2017 Deadbeat Dudes Benefit from ObamaCarMedicaid went wrong when we started allowing able-bodied men under 35 earning less than $15,000 p/a to have access to health insurance. Fucking man up you deadbeat losers!And this is why I find it funny whenever the regressive left make up like ‘the far right wing supports men’s rights.’ Like fuck they do they support rich white men. They ARE the patriarchy. We know that a system which benefits some people at the expense of others exists;’ those people are mostly rich. Conservative and liberal alike. It’s called an oligarchy. We just think that you attack a lot of the wrong people. Moreover I know several of you who refuse to call out when a rich white woman is benefiting from the system, instead it’s all you go girl! Fight that patriarchy!In UK, do you really think that the former Tory government, Cameron’s premiership, was pro-MRA? Survivors’ UK being the first charity to have its funding slashed to, I believe, ZERO, in 2014–5, would suggest otherwise.UK's biggest male rape charity Survivors UK has state counselling funding slashed to zero That is right, Rape Crisis UK did suffer unjustly…but they suffered last, after the men’s safe houses faced blows.The MSM, such as BBC, treats one of the most prominent British activists for men’s issues, Michael Buchanan, as a laughing stock-even moreso because of his often conservative positions:Tom Ramsay's answer to What are some things that feminists don't understand about men? What are the prejudices feminists hold about men?Say what you will about Paul Elam and A Voice For Men, but there’s no proof that Mike is profiting from propagating a false narrative.Why do we prioritise women’s needs before men’s, even when the men are clearly not benefiting at that moment from ‘male privilege’ but rather a victim of ‘toxic masculinity’? It’s likely because of the ‘white knight’ paradigm which shall be discussed in point iii)I’ve been finding things bittersweet far too often this weekend…ii) …because it’s harder to get laid or to attract someone for a relationship. I’ve seen WAY more feminists and/or ‘unattractive’ women as conventionally defined, in relationships, or speaking of prior sexual/romantic experience, than men who fail at hegemonic masculinity achieving this. This can in part be placed down to ‘passivity privilege,’ which it is argued, is justified by being a reaction to slut-shaming.The result of this is that men are more hesitant on average to voice any complaints about their gender role which do not already appeal to women’s collective or an individual woman’s prerogative and plans for him.iii) because men (and to a lesser extent, women) who have internalised male disposability and traditionalist moral gender essentialist moral paradigms (feminist might call it internalised misogyny) are benevolent sexists, and believe that men are morally bound to performing hyper-agency on the behalf of hypo-agents. These are the men known as ‘white knights’ or ‘simps’ when they are trying to attract women with this strategy. However, sometimes men won’t do this with sex or romance in mind, but simply to earn their morality; the right to think of themselves as a ‘hero’ or even just a good person, due to the aforementioned ‘original sin’ of male privilege and misogyny.Tom Ramsay's answer to Why has feminism become synonymous with man-hating?These men will fight and bring down other men before a woman is dishonoured.Have you ever noticed how outside of the BNBR world, it is often MEN who shame other men for not performing their gender-by calling them weak, attacking their dick…calling them deadbeat dudes leeching off the system like the guy in the Tomi video above? I see male feminists who pride themselves on how progressive they are, and hard stereotypical right wingers alike, doing this. One of the most perpetuating myths is the idea that misandry or male disposability is a ‘leftist’ or ‘conservative’ phenomenon; it’s BOTH, and beyond that binary, which is ultimately an Enlightenment phenomenon, and did not even exist in our collective consciousness prior to the early modern era. So listen to Jamie, Mr. Jamie ‘collapsed by moderation for no apparent reason’ Scoverski over there.By no means does this mean that women do not enforce traditionalist sexism on men. I’ve seen an awful lot of that on Quora, Reddit and more places. Equally, I agree that it’s undesirable to be an eternal victim; more rightward leaning non-feminists have some legitimate points regarding identity politics, cultural Marxism, and the Oppression Olympics all being a fast-track to cultural stagnation. I just think that it’s easier to convince men to keep sympathetic women on their side if they lash their anger out on the sexist traditionalists who help perpetuate the problem in the status quo. However, since people have done a good effort to define benevolent sexism of this sort as ‘basic human decency’, but will play mental gymnastics to rationalise why they can be quiet when a man is suffering at a later date, this is a taboo topic to bring up. Not least because most non-MGTOW guys are either completely ‘blue pilled’-brainwashed into gynocentrism-or have tinges of the suspicion that this behaviour is not egalitarian, but are afraid that it’ll slash their dating pool right down.And yet, you know what, I can’t even blame white knights for this behaviour. What I’m trying to imply above re: men and victimhood is; men who are very good at performing masculinity, don’t even THINK about such thoughts, and are quite contemptuous of men who do. Part of being a traditional man is to suck it up and get on with it, after all. Especially as a peasant, you’re not supposed to know why you are acting this way; you just do.(Oh yeah, John; I looked through your search history, and you do seem to lean quite conservative yourself. Pro-Brexit, intolerant of many aspects of multiculturalism, etc. So, I am guessing that you are a traditionalist, and thus these appeals to victimhood as a man will likely fail. Observe your intrinsic sexist bias in favour of women and strong men who succeed, and own it.)So, there are some (obligatory #notall) feminists who are reluctant to discuss the issues facing men with them, and equally many non-feminists/traditionalists. Even though they want men to be able to vent, they dislike when the male tears run, and especially when that will cost the taxpayer.That leaves men with the following issues that can really be embraced by feminists-Mental health-Relationships-Comfort with sexuality-Social skills, friendships-Employment-Family life-Being a unique single individualAll which confirm the ‘toxic masculinity’ theory and reinforce feminism, or are simply gender neutral ‘safe topics.’ Most of which are within the capacity of ‘hegemonic femininity’ to both heal and control. All of which don’t show any disparity in privilege in women’s favour. Some of which, ike mental health, can be gendered so that we end up hating on male narcissists and psychopaths, while sympathising with women with cluster B personality disorders, depression, anxiety disorders and so on.Third, you’ve shifted the goalposts.We’re now working with a flexible definition of ‘oppression,’ where you get to define what constitutes ‘true oppression,’ and more importantly, you’re appealing to both tradition and variations in culture. And again I am taking into account that you are yourself trad-con leaning.Consider what Jamie said wrt. information cascades. Now consider how much you know about other cultures in general. Do you think you know as much a native (at risk of appealing to authority?)Do you take sources in general for what they are on the surface level, without examining them critically? Then why do you take media for gender issues at face value?This is super incredibly controversial but; have you considered that life may not be hunky dory for average working men in the cultures which oppress women, too? If not, do you have any information which proves that men have it easy, or significantly easier, than women?Do not come to me with a stat about what rights women lack and the way they are treated. We know this, and it is disgusting. I want you to see things like: If two people are fighting in the street, and both a man and woman pass by and witness this, who is expected if not obliged to enter the proverbial ring and intervene on behalf of everyone else?Example: Anybody who has actually looked into the Abrahamic religions will see that within them, there is an entrenched degree of male disposability in the name of God-tribal collectivism by proxy. I don’t think anyone argues that religion is harder on men than women, but it most certainly did come with gendered expectations. The primary complaint is not that patriarchy did not exist, nor that men were MORE oppressed than women, but that patriarchy did not unanimously benefit men.A good patriarch-a ruling father-would put his charges (wife and children) first, followed by his job and role within the community, and finally his own needs. Again we are not trying to argue that women stuck in the house had it easy, at all, since that is a ridiculous argument which can be debunked by the mere fact I’ve got a helpline to a charity specialising in saving women from forced marriage and honour killings, in my site tabs.Ultimately, however, concerns go back to children.A major reason for this being a cultural norm, besides sexual dimorphism, is moral typecasting. We see men with power; we hold them more accountable. We see men in the glass cellar; well, they should have worked harder to get out of there. Yet we see women without power, and they are victims, we must protect them. We’re surprised when they act not only in powerful, but in malicious or self-interested ways, typically associated with men.Moral typecasting: divergent perceptions of moral agents and moral patients. And as alluded to earlier in my answer, some of the rad-fems simply don’t care that they’re acted maliciously, or with self-interest. They are free, therefore it’s good! Yet, the same people will call men who do not take up responsibilities deadbeats, losers, man babies, misogynists. Hmm.What’s the most popular and acceptably ‘non-misogynistic’ and ‘legitimate’ issue that men have? Father’s rights. Child custody issues.What’s the most despicable and misogynistic ‘non-issue’ or ‘whine’ that men have? Getting casual sex with attractive women.Prior to the rise of Trump and the Alt Right, the easiest way to shut down MRA was to associate it with the most misogynistic of the pick-up artists. PUA is dubbed ‘puerarchy’ in the Manosphere-in their vision, ‘men putting themselves first for once, since we’re not respected anymore’-but mainstream PUA is in many ways a repackaged form of post-feminist gynocentrism! It’s about becoming the most attractive man you can be, to ‘leave her better than you found her’; relentless self-improvement to be ‘worthy’ of a woman. Worse than that, it’s low hanging fruit for the rape culture narrative, and is likely very responsible for the high rate of false rape accusations men face! (Seriously, look up ‘Last Minute Resistance’ and tell me that’s not getting rapey. Does make you wonder how much of Schrodinger’s Rapist is based around almost being seduced by one of these morons.)PUA and MRA are uneasy allies at best. Lots of MGTOWs are guys who saw the hook-up scene, and then turned MRA after a friend was screwed over by erosion of due process. Others of course, are divorced men put through the wringer by the courts.Beyond this, the leeway that men have with regards men’s ‘rights’ is actually in regards to right of the patriarch. A man has not earned anything simply by virtue of having a penis. Men are human doings, and in absence of being a Leader in society, the next easiest way to achieve Hero status is through being a good Pater-dad.That’s why ‘deadbeat dad’ is such an insult, and reproductive rights-including financial abortion-such a contentious issue even among the centre left, as opposed to the abortion debate which is settled in many places in the ‘first world’ outside of US. Although you may be interested to know how many deadbeat mothers there are out there too:6 Truths About Dads Feminists Don’t Want You to Know“1. “Deadbeat Dads” are largely a mythMost Dads support their children financially. Thanks to laws that refuse to acknowledge men as equal parents and refuse to put the best interests of the child first and recognize that children have a basic human right to have meaningful relationships with both their parents, and thanks to the total lack of reproductive rights for men, more men than women pay child support. The vast majority of non-custodial parents pay child support, and most of the parents who fail to meet their child support obligations fall under the poverty line. It’s likely that poor men fail to meet child support, not because they hate their children, but because they are poor. In 2011, only 25 % of custodial mothers did not receive any child support payments, while 32% of custodial fathers were left high and dry.Oops. Looks like “deadbeat moms” are more common as a percentage of the population than “deadbeat dads”.2. Dads are more likely to refuse child support, and less likely to alienate the other parentWhen the US Census Bureau carried out the Current Populations Survey in 2012, it asked custodial parents why they had no legal child support award. Turns out that dads were more likely than moms to say that they just didn’t want the other person to pay support. 27.5% of dads and 22.9% of moms had no legal child support award by choice. Only 12.7% of Dads didn’t want their children to have contact with the other parent, while 21% of women indicated they wanted their children alienated from the other parent.The parent most likely to assume full responsibility for their children? That would be Dad. The parent most likely to deny children their very basic right to know their other parent? That would be Mom.”Not to mention that if ‘patriarchy’ is forcing women to be primary care-givers-hence there sexist biases of divorce courts regarding alimony, child support and custody issues-then I guess that NOW in the nineties and early Noughties was in bed with that darned patriarchy. Weird.Opposing Shared Parenting: The Feminist Track Recordhttps://www.avoiceformen.com/mens-rights/opposing-shared-parenting-the-feminist-track-record/NOW-New York State Oppose Legislation NOW argues that it’s in the interest of the child. Is it in the interest of the child?New Research Proves Opposition to Shared Parenting can be Harmful to Children (ACEs Study)A complex piece, and you don’t have to take it at face value or area with it all-obviously. Is it harmful for children to be sheltered from ‘adverse childhood experience’?“While it is true that two parents separating is a type of harm as we discussed above and is stressful for a child, we also wanted to show some additional research published by the NSCH study that shows that children who undergo stress do have better resiliency when they are able to “remain calm and in control” when undergoing a stressful situation. And what child wouldn’t be calmer and in more control if they continued to have the security and stability of both of their parents? If they didn’t have to wonder for years which parent they would live with and instead knew immediately that they wouldn’t lose either parent and that both parents would continue share them equally?When a child is being told they are going to be ripped from a fit and loving parent, when a child’s financial security is being put at risk because the court process is making their parents spend their future college funds and making them broke, when the child’s parents are no longer in control but instead attorneys, guardian ad litems, counselors, and a judge take over, the child’ security that they had in their parents is removed and that is unnecessary harm that is being inflicted on that child, and that is what is permanently detrimental and in fact leads to death and permanent illness as you can find in these studies as well.”Is it in the interest of divorce lawyers for parental alienation to occur?“Without presumptions that parents are presumed to be fit and equal courts have been starting off with presumptions that parents have something to prove. Many courts even presume that parents who fight for equal custody or who disagree with the court are not fit and are unable to put the child first. By not having this presumption that parents in divorce/separation are fit until proven otherwise, the courts are causing harmful litigation. When attorneys put parents in a position where they have to fight and prove they are a better parent than the other just to keep equal time with their own child, and a process or system that requires the child to choose one parent over the other, it should be clear now that this is what is harmful to a child and to all parents, not the parents relationship between each other failing.”How can I blame you when ‘gynocentric’ propaganda about toxic masculinity might have been the crux of a Lego film?! I’m referring to the Lego Batman movie here with its emphasis on man-child Batman growing up through adopting Dick Grayson i.e. Robin; a funny premise, and let’s be real I’ve been ‘woke’ enough to these phenomena to enjoy such media despite it, but a subtle bash of the puerarchy, and far from the first instance of this phenomenon.In fact, when I attended reading group just a few days ago, we were reading through Dickens’ Dombey and Son. The crux of that book? The story of how Scrooge-like gentleman Mr. Dombey is a terribly heartless father towards his young daughter. He prioritises his business and estate’s legacy over love for her, through desiring a son to be born who can inherit his title and fortune; that puts him firmly in the level of sinful stone-hearted misers.The concept of a boy becoming a man through rites of passage where he engages in virtuous self-sacrifice of his passions in favour of reason and magnanimity-the use of power to serve those needier and more vulnerable than him-has been a staple plot device for literature and myths for centuries, if not millennia. For more, see the ‘Hero’ Journey’ section of this answer:Tom Ramsay's answer to Is feminist virgin-shaming responsible for the low self-esteem of many men?Is Hakuna Matata really such a wonderful phrase now, Simba? No worries indeed.Although, one could argue that there’s no empowerment in privilege without responsibility, and that hurts the most privileged women for sure:Sorry Kiona!Finally, while there are issues which cis men and white men have, the idea that all ‘men’ are represented by able cis white Christian males is in itself offensive. Of course, that’s what intersectionality is trying to tackle.But you know what else is? Assuming that that means that an individual from an ‘oppressed’ (marginalised) group can only be thinking in a way which suits the progressive narrative.Tom Ramsay's answer to What do you think about females who dislike or hate the feminist movement?Not to mention the idea that men’s movements are not looking out for non cis white able men. Spend time in any of them and you will see how that is wrong, or at least not something you can generalise. Which is my final point; it’ OK to make sweeping generalisations about ‘men’s rights’ movements and advocates, but not about feminists or feminism-thanks to information cascades.I haven’t even brought up the Murray-Strauss ’30 years of Denying Evidence’ study, which exposed some of the corruption in the domestic violence industry, suppressing access for both battered.abused straight men AND for LGBT couples.____________To conclude, OP:i) You are a victim of information cascades by progressive media and some gynocentric feminists which trivialise and demonise quite serious men’s issues, and want to monopolise what constitutes a men’s ‘rights’ issue. They do this by falsely claiming that most men’s advocates are far-right extremists in favour of white nationalism, and status quo apologists.ii) Male disposability and the feminine imperative is often so normative, at least in the context of relationships, that most men live their lives a slave to it. ‘Happy wife happy life’ comes to mind. Feminism has removed gender roles for most women, but at times, kept some for men. Feminism is however, not to blame for male disposability; that phenomenon precedes it and is likely due to division of labour, particularly during war-time. It is this phenomenon which leads to the oppression of everyone in many non-Western cultures of the ‘third world.’iii) Most men in the first world are blue pill, which means that they are naive at best, revel in the title of ‘hero’ and peck on the cheek they get for being the One Good Man at worst The one good manAs I said above, white knights will throw men under the bus for non-conformity if it gives them favour with society, particularly women. They will go as far as to offer themselves to commit vigilante justice against offending males.A culture of white knighting and mob justice also exists, but is suppressed because the very same paradigm which gave rise to it, also gives rise to slut-shaming, and raping women who fail to perform gender.iv) Due to moral typecasting and disparities in perceived agency, we assume passive women are more victimised and in need of more sympathy than passive men, or men stuck in the cellar. We also hold men WITH power to a higher standard of agency than we do women; if he fails, we will be more reluctant to help him get back up on his feet. He is relevant as long as he is powerful.Note that in fairness, we hold powerful women to a higher moral standard-although this is compromised by benevolent sexism and neoteny. See how confusing these paradigms and unconscious biases can be?v) Trad-con women push gender essentialist roles while feminism pushes…whatever role a woman wishes upon a man. Which frankly is often just her own version of traditionalism.Among traditionalists more common to attack men for failing to perform gender than it is to attack women; the main way that conservative women oppress other women is to slut-shame them. Arguing that this is proof that the right is more favourable of ‘men’s rights’ though is a gross fallacy of false equivalence.vi) While the most nuanced feminist theories ismantle gender stereotypes all round, the most common flavour of feminism is simply: more liberation and freedom for all women, more parenting responsibilities for cis-het men. Also feminists are more likely to dismantle hostile sexism against women (misogyny) than either hostile sexism against men, or benevolent sexism in favour of women. I have actually NEVER seen a feminist blog discuss examples of ‘female’ entitlement and irresponsibility, or individual women with entitlement issues towards men. Of course, I’ve seen individual feminists do this.vii) You probably got taught that MRA is linked to PUA. This is true in some ways and utterly false in others. PUA has a lot of traditionalist elements which just update the expected masculine archetypes for the era of hookup culture and livin’ in the city. Likewise the script it recommends just spreads animosity between the sexes, particularly between feminists and college-aged men, who then go on to become victims of false rape accusations, or facing the original sin of Schrodinger’s Rapistviii) You probably got taught that men’s rights is just about middle class white men’s problems. This is wrong. Feminists can accommodate marginalised people who aren’t antagonistic to the progressive ideology. Many factions of MRM can accommodate the rest, such as those who were alienated by progressives for being…non-progressive. Also, seriously, do you see many 3rd wave feminist movements advocating for human rights of people in the 3rd world? I’ve been signed up to numerous petition sites for a while, and the one which keeps coming up is ‘fight for a girl’s right to education.’ I rarely read anything about boys, at least not problems which primarily affect men and boys.But really? No, I do not blame you for not sympathising. Besides from the fact that you can’t know any better when we’ve never been at war with Oceania, this is a thankless ‘job.’ My friends don’t see the point of it. They want to talk about vidyagames and the latest movies with me. Quora’s TW community don’t like it, being largely successful progressives who cannot relate to men in the glass cellar. I suspect that some of Quora moderation tires of it, and while that suggests bias, I don’t blame them given the topic has 8 and a half thousand questions to date. Given that Quora’s only been around since 2010, that’s at least a thousand questions per year on average on this topic alone, which have not been deleted. I’d hate to see what the moderation bin looks like…However, they really should do something about the blogs which save gender-related questions asked by insecure young men, purely to mock those men-often about being ‘meninist’ virgins.Naturally I cannot think of a single employer who would want to be associated with this task of being an advocate for men’s issues but not formally a feminist, worse antagonistic to contemporary feminist and progressive policies/doctrine/discourse.Altogether this comes with no status and is just draining, almost un-productive aside from a small loyal fan base. Perhaps for Lent it’d be good for me to try a moratorium. I really think that 60 answers should have made their point.
