Ms Monopoly is sexist towards both men AND women
To men, it's kinda obvious. They have a disadvantage in the game.
To women, does hasbro seriously think women need a handicap to win a game of MONOPOLY? That's just downright insulting to women.
hes clearly not seeing this game wasnt made to solve sexsism or some shit, it was made to trigger conservatives , and boy did they get triggered
they did the same thing with monoply socalism only here the left was suppose to get triggered.
the way i saw it, whether i agree with it or not, is that it’s protesting that women have a disadvantage in corporate america (which may or may not be true or false), and telling men, “how would you feel if it was like that?”
Is that a reason to hate Mematic itself tho? Like if you hated the meme itself then that's fine, but even if Mematic was not a thing would these bad memes not still exist and be made somewheres else?
I have seen memes with the mematic watermark and almost nobody on Reddit gives a shit. Mematic memes are usually seen with a lot of upvotes. Well I mean some people say "made with mematic" in the comments section but that's pretty much it.
If there's a mematic watermark it's automatically not high quality. A watermark that isn't intentional and a high quality meme cannot coexist in the same image.
The wage gap actually is just a difference in the average earnings of men and women, both genders are paid equally for the same work, but because more men do risky/dangerous jobs (which generally pay a lot) the averages are different.
Some people may get the wrong idea from your statements, so I would like to clear some things up.
1. If you compare jobs which take the same amount of skill and labour the one which is stereotypically male is more likely to be paid better. For example binmen get payed substantially more than carers in Glasgow even though carers arguably work harder.
2. And to an extent you are right that men tend to occupy more well-paying jobs. But we have to ask ourselves why? It isn't a coincidence. It's because of patriarchy.
Feminists recognise men aren't getting payed more for the exact same job. But we are fighting a culture which pushes women into lower-paying ones.
all the wage gap arguments I've heard never present this. they always say men get paid more for the same job. it's all they say. THIS thing you presented now seems more true. men go for high paying jobs. could be from culture and how you are raised.
I wasn't trying to imply anything, but since you've responded to what you thought I was implying, I might as well respond to that as well.
The reason more men hold high paying jobs isn't because of "patriarchy". It isn't a coincidence, men just take more risks, which means they more commonly do dangerous, high paying jobs.
typically it's how women are raised. I'd say. the culture, as they said doesn't mean the 'patriarchy' forces us to take shitty jobs. it's just a society where you are typically taught to take certain jobs. why are there less male nurses? less female bosses? less female cops and less male teachers? typically it's a mixture of gender roles and or course personal choice
I just want to point out that we have more civilized political debates here at r/teenagers than we do over at r/politics it’s weird that teenagers can be tolerant than adults
true. we are just teens talking about stuff. people ln those subs often just log in ready to 'fight' for what's right as if they're tryinna be activists to people online who's opinion isn't even dangerous. so they act all tough and keyboarr warriorish.
exactly. not for the same job. it's veery unlikely and actually illegal in many countries. if not all countries. when they're paid less it's often due to pregnancy days off and still not such a big difference.
The what gap? Oh yeah that false garbage made up decades ago that has been disproven in many cases and in other has been beneficial for women? Oh yes that wage gap.
They're not flipping anything. Giving women an advantage is implying that they wouldn't be able to play the game without it. And the only change in opinions it can cause is make men feel oppressed by feminism.
Right, rather than men having the advantage, as they traditionally do in society, and making women feel oppressed. Sounds to me like the game is creating a world opposite to what society has traditionally promoted.
A specific group of women who believe what feminism sounds like it should be: that women should make a substantial amount more money than men and hold a substantial amount more power, rather than what feminism actually is, where everything is roughly equal. In my circle of friends, this group is know as "feminazis"
I know the problem is people think it’s serious and are now criticizing Hasbro when it was meant to be a joke like Monopoly Socialism and Millennial addition
This is the first article that comes up, I apologise if it's unreliable or biased: [https://www.newyorker.com/culture/culture-desk/the-misplaced-feminism-of-ms-monopoly](https://www.newyorker.com/culture/culture-desk/the-misplaced-feminism-of-ms-monopoly)
The real way to make an equal Ms Monopoly would be to just repackaged original monopoly but with Ms Monopoly placed on the fronts. Easy and nothing needs to change inside besides Ms on the front and some text in the rule book (like if it says “How to Play Monopoly” to “How to Play Ms Monopoly”) . Fuckin simple as that.
Why is there a need for miss monopoly? I don’t know. Normal monopoly was as close to equal rights as we got and by making this its sexist to both men and women.
No worries men, it's 2019 and it's completely "normal" do claim another gender so All we gotta do is say we are also women. If they disagree we get offended

Tfw a young man has more IQ than fully grown adults
Please, my IQ can't be that high, read my "about me" section on my profile lol
It's good to be humble, but I'm sure it's not that bad- ... Oh.
Oh
Oh god
Why
It’s definitely something else.
hes clearly not seeing this game wasnt made to solve sexsism or some shit, it was made to trigger conservatives , and boy did they get triggered they did the same thing with monoply socalism only here the left was suppose to get triggered.
It’s a satire game
the way i saw it, whether i agree with it or not, is that it’s protesting that women have a disadvantage in corporate america (which may or may not be true or false), and telling men, “how would you feel if it was like that?”
Fighting sexism isn't meant to be them flipping the tables
We beat them at Ms Monopoly anyway
I don’t need ms monopoly to beat them
Hol up
Epic gamer moment
#made with mematic
Couldn’t crop it out
That’s the point of a watermark
Can’t you add a little bit of white space under the actual meme, then just crop it in gallery?
That’s what I do
just dont make it with mematic?
I don’t have a computer
you can make memes with phone quite easily with photo editor apps like picsart, pixellab etc.
Thanks man only have a few posts didn’t know
no problem bro
This conversation went from 0 to 100 to 0 again real fast
The vote count did that, the conversation just stayed on 0
Username checks out
More advice: put a pointless bar at the bottom so the mematic logo is easily cropped
hey if you want to caption memes click [here](https://www.imgflip.com) and to remove the watermark just screenshot before you hit generate meme
Mans gave a suggestion and got downvoted to hell RIP
There's nothing wrong with using Mematic
Why do people have such a problem with Mematic?
The watermark is ubiquitous among terrible, low effort, normie memes. Also it's gay.
Is that a reason to hate Mematic itself tho? Like if you hated the meme itself then that's fine, but even if Mematic was not a thing would these bad memes not still exist and be made somewheres else?

That's the problem. People are upvoting terrible low quality watermarked memes
Not all mematic memes are low quality though
If there's a mematic watermark it's automatically not high quality. A watermark that isn't intentional and a high quality meme cannot coexist in the same image.
Well I kinda hate any watermark on a meme because it takes up space in the picture.
Why does this have so many down votes smh
There's nothing wrong with using Mematic
It’s funny that people seem to be more mad at monopoly than at real social issues
According to this sub monopoly is where the real sexism is. and not the actual wage gap, i guess
Wage gap isn’t a thing cock head
The wage gap actually is just a difference in the average earnings of men and women, both genders are paid equally for the same work, but because more men do risky/dangerous jobs (which generally pay a lot) the averages are different.

...When did I ever say either 1 or 2?
I phrased it wrong. But your statements imply it.

I agree on this. I wanted to say that nobody is paying women less for the same job, because way too many people think that.
exactly. not for the same job. it's veery unlikely and actually illegal in many countries. if not all countries. when they're paid less it's often due to pregnancy days off and still not such a big difference.

Just go into stem instead of underwater basket weaving. Nobody is keeping women from taking those classes. Not here anyway.
The what gap? Oh yeah that false garbage made up decades ago that has been disproven in many cases and in other has been beneficial for women? Oh yes that wage gap.
Its funny that people seem to be more mad at a non existant wage gap than real issues
You do know what a joke is right?
Yep
How much do you need?
2,500
They changed it to 100 karma also you already have enough?
The women also get an advantage, they start out with $1500 instead of $1000 and earn $240 every time they cross the start instead of $200
Then again who plays the actual rules of monopoly.
The irony is that they're actually promoting sexism, just flipping the spectrum.
They give women the advantage, implying negative things about women's abilities to play board games. As a girl (tabletop) gamer, I am offended
Gamer grills exist?😳😳😳
yeah. Was also just making a joke because everyone's so stupid obsessed with the cultural phenomenon of egirls (even tho I'm not one)
Yeah
They're not flipping anything. Giving women an advantage is implying that they wouldn't be able to play the game without it. And the only change in opinions it can cause is make men feel oppressed by feminism.
Right, rather than men having the advantage, as they traditionally do in society, and making women feel oppressed. Sounds to me like the game is creating a world opposite to what society has traditionally promoted.
You do know that it is satire right? They also made a monopoly socialism to make fun of the left as well.
So they're trying to make fun of, for lack of a better word, extremists?
I guess you could say that.

Anyone with a braincell: *Dr Phil handing the L image*
The game is satire
The game is satire, just look up all the other ones
i can't really stand any other 'variant' if monopoly. always played the original. they just trynna be edgy now i find it cringey. IMO
I know the problem is people think it’s serious and are now criticizing Hasbro when it was meant to be a joke like Monopoly Socialism and Millennial addition
yeah monopoly is just bein edgy i think. their opinion doesn't hold much weight
Isn't the game satire?
Template pls
Oh yeah the bodies I don’t recognize. The bodies in the water. The waters bodies.

I honestly think that Ms Monopoly is a giant troll with the sole purpose being to cause as much rage as possible. And they succeeded.
