feminism never taught me to hate men but it did help me realize that i shouldn’t prioritize them over women & it turns out that alot of men consider that to be hatred lmao.

So if you were in a room with two prisoners; a man and a woman, you’d never met, and the gender neutral soldier with the big gun told you to kill one of them, you’d automatically shoot the man?

tag yourselves I’m the gender neutral soldier with the big gun

i mean obviously this premise makes no sense and has nothing to do with literally anything based anywhere even in proximate distance to reality but sure, yeah, in a dystopian world where i’m put in a room with two prisoners and a gender neutral soldier with a big gun tells me i have to shoot one of them i’m definitely shooting the man if for no other reason than i’m on more equal footing if i have to hand-to-hand combat a woman, just like, size-wise

Ok but what if the woman is like Brienne of Tarth sized and the guy is like pre-serum Steve Rogers sized? I think we need to consider every angle of this very strategically. There’s no room for error here.

GOOD point. my reasoning is based on a fallacy of body stereotypes. given no other information about these two individuals other than gender, even assuming that lietliet is wrongly equating gender with sex, it’s impossible to know which of the two would be the more take downable in hand-to-hand combatant. i was assuming that both prisoners were at their most emaciated and unwell, just based off of being held captive in a room where a stranger is coming in to shoot them for no reason.

even correcting for this, however, i think i still shoot the man because studies have shown that in a single-instance social dilemma, women are more cooperative than men, and in mixed-sex groups men are less cooperative than women. therefore, i want a woman on my single-instance social dilemma team.

i mean i know it sounds harsh but that’s just science

Why are we assuming we’re shooting the prisoner? Seems to me if we’re being placed in this situation, we’re in some kind of dystopian environment where these two are probably political prisoners of some kind. Our best bet (assuming the gun IS loaded at all, which just shows how cocky and foolish the autocratic government is by handing us a loaded weapon) is to shoot the gender-neutral soldier and steal their big gun, freeing the other two so that we can escape and make contact with the resistance.
