Men's Liberation
This community is first and foremost a feminist community for men and masc people, but it is also a place to talk about men’s issues with a particular focus on intersectionality.
Rules
Everybody is welcome, but this is primarily a space for men and masc people
Non-masculine perspectives are incredibly important in making sure that the lived experiences of others are present in discussions on masculinity, but please remember that this is a space to discuss issues pertaining to men and masc individuals. Be kind, open-minded, and take care that you aren't talking over men expressing their own lived experiences.
Be productive
Be proactive in forming a productive discussion. Constructive criticism of our community is fine, but if you mainly criticize feminism or other people's efforts to solve gender issues, your post/comment will be removed.
Keep the following guidelines in mind when posting:
- Build upon the OP
- Discuss concepts rather than semantics
- No low effort comments
- No personal attacks
Assume good faith
Do not call other submitters' personal experiences into question.
No bigotry
Slurs, hate speech, and negative stereotyping towards marginalized groups will not be tolerated.
No brigading
Do not participate if you have been linked to this discussion from elsewhere. Similarly, links to elsewhere on the threadiverse must promote constructive discussion of men’s issues.

Spending 5 minutes on Google shows that the number of construction workers is at all time highs.
It's just that a hot economy requires even more labour.
My 2 cents, the economy could use a rebalancing by raising wages and reducing profits a bit.
If salaries of construction workers get raised from $40K to $50K, then the number of openings will go down and the remaining workers can focus on the more important work while getting a better wage.
This man wants shareholders to starve! How can you provide for your family if you can only afford a 60' yacht instead of 70'??
What a fucking socialist piece of shit they are, if they wanted to be paid well they should have thought of that when being born a poor
I don't know what construction wkrs make but I think this should be a LOT higher. 50K starting and topping out around 100k.
If you go union those rares are a lot higher
Perhaps, those are the BLS figures from 2023.
Interesting, Thanks.
