| 2 | Woman is mortified that her daughter was circumcised, Son was also circumcised but its ok because, "it's cleaner and healthier for boys" (crosspost from /r/twox)Although nerve richness correlates with sensitivity, it is not as simple as "you removed the most sensitive part of the body therefore you lose a shitload of sensation". Some studies have found a decrease in sensitivity from circumcision, but others have found no statistically significant reduction. The large study from 2013 that claimed to show a decrease in sensitivity for circumcised men had major issues with its sample and conclusions. | /r/MensRights | 02/04/15 11:42 PM |
| 1 | Go to the gym is universally accepted advice in TRP, but what kind of signals do different body types confer to women from both an evolutionary and cultural standpoint?If your pants fall down because you "have no hip" then you don't have the naturally athletic body that you think you do, although I'm sure your body is aesthetically pleasing. Sounds like you have a naturally pretty athletic upper body but that you need to hit some leg day pretty badly for your glutes etc. | /r/TheRedPill | 20/03/14 04:00 PM |
| 1 | Dad wants to raise unborn baby.Nope, he has no rights as the Father; Mother gives baby up for adoption.not the legal decision that he's excluded as a putative father Yeah, if this happened something is fishy. But remember, we have no confirmation that he was officially denied the opportunity to prove paternity. In fact, I would hazard a guess that he was not officially denied that opportunity, since if he was it seems like that'd be the #1 thing he'd be complaining about. | /r/MensRights | 20/12/13 12:54 AM |

I would not let my kids be alone with her before this divorce. Now she babysits and keeps them on the weekends. She also paid for the divorce lawyers, my ex-wifes house, and car. That type of Mom.

Are you stupid? You should pay because it's a legal obligation, and unless someone releases you from a legal obligation, you must fulfill that obligation even while contesting it. You have to keep paying while you contest it. It's dead fucking simple. If you think she shouldn't have custody or you shouldn't pay child support, fine, you keep paying until you win the battle and get your kids or stop having to pay child support. It's so simple it's ludicrous. Ar… | /r/MensRights | 19/12/13 11:39 PM |
| 1 | Dad wants to raise unborn baby.Nope, he has no rights as the Father; Mother gives baby up for adoption.But, again, the fact that he was living with the mother and supporting her has nothing to do with whether or not it was his sperm that inseminated her egg and created the child in the first place. Seriously, unless he was denied the opportunity to take a paternity test, that's the open and shut simple solution to this. | /r/MensRights | 19/12/13 08:35 PM |
| 1 | DAE use MRA to feel better about girls not being interested in them?The fact of the matter is that sex is dangerous and addictive. If I fuck up once it could end up costing me for 18 years. Given that you've posted about how your plan for life is to live off of your parents' money, why does the prospect of child support concern you? It's not like you'd have earned the money you'd be paying which is normally what galls people so much. | /r/MensRights | 24/07/13 05:02 PM |
| 1 | "What Will We Concede To Feminism": UPDATEBecause gender is closely related to a person's sense of identity. Quit giving me easy questions. If you weren't trying for trite responses you'd have read the whole paragraph and replied to the actual point (not pull it out of any context so as to be almost meaningless), which is: why are female gender-based insults so much more ubiquitous and effective? | /r/MensRights | 03/07/13 07:34 PM |
| 1 | "What Will We Concede To Feminism": UPDATENo, virgin is a gender specific insult. Women are not shamed for being virgins. Quite the opposite, really. Of course. That is what my argument says. Women's traditional gender role involves a premium placed upon being virgin. Men's traditional gender role does not. The insults act on deviation from expected gender roles, they do not insult gender itself. On the other hand (to be Devil's Advocate) the counterargument to me is that so do most misogynistic insults act on deviation from the traditi… | /r/MensRights | 03/07/13 07:14 PM |
| 1 | "What Will We Concede To Feminism": UPDATEHmm. I wrote about 3 posts to this. Originally I was going to argue that neckbeard is somewhat different and non-gendered, but I think you're actually correct. Neckbeard is in much the same vein as insults about women not shaving their legs or armpits - it's insulting someone for deviation from a gender norm. So it's as gendered as insults about women not meeting gender norms are. Neither are okay. I guess the one point I'd make is that women in general seem to face a more harmful set of gender … | /r/MensRights | 03/07/13 06:29 PM |
| 1 | "What Will We Concede To Feminism": UPDATEneckbeard I think that's very Reddit-specific because I've never heard that used as an insult outside of the very particular context of Reddit/Reddit-associated MRM and feminism people. That said, you may have a point. On the other hand, neckbeard isn't really so much an insult based on gender, but rather on gender roles, no? The same is true of virgin These aren't insults that operate based directly on the gender of the target but rather rely for their insult power on the target's deviation fro… | /r/MensRights | 03/07/13 05:30 PM |

Yes, and that is a really, really really bad argument. It is, in fact, an ad hominem argument. "You are a <practitioner of a certain field> therefore your argument can't be taken seriously."

Half of what you said here is totally reasonable, and half is totally not: A better argument against the statement that discrimination causes women to be a minority at the top of fields is that men typically make more of the sacrifices in every area that one would expect to be required in order to be the absolute top of a field (working more hours, being more willing to relocate, taking jobs wi… | /r/MensRights | 03/07/13 04:55 PM |

They don't actually BELIEVE women should just "stay in the kitchen" but they use it because its a cheap shot. No doubt. But that then begs the question: why are gender attacks such an effective cheap shot in our society? That's the point I'm getting at. Outside of very specific contexts like radical feminism, nobody really tries to attack my male gender as a… | /r/MensRights | 03/07/13 04:43 PM |

So are the lower echelons of society... the homeless, the blue collar sectors, etc. Feminist activism doesn't seem as enthusiastic about gender parity in these sectors! This doesn't address the point. You may or may not be right about feminism being selectively concerned and are definitely right about the Apex Fallacy, but that doesn't address the wild gender imbalance at the top levels of b… | /r/MensRights | 03/07/13 03:29 PM |
| 0 | Email emoticons are sexual harassment.Can't imagine why you're getting downvoted except by absolute idiots. Of course it can be. I use the wink emoticon all the time when texting/messaging people I want to fuck, to add a sexual tone. If I did that to someone who didn't want to have a sexual used with them, that would absolutely be sexual harassment. | /r/MensRights | 30/05/13 06:09 PM |

This Feminism train reached Station B around 25 years ago, but the Feminists did not stop the train.Nope, didn't intend to advance any of the other arguments you state here. I just wanted to clarify whether or not everyone here is speaking in a basically rich Western country context alone. | /r/MensRights | 30/05/13 05:46 PM |
| 2 | Email emoticons are sexual harassment.While I would suggest that this woman is likely overreacting to something not intended to be sexual, what exactly is so ridiculous about the idea that adding a winking emoticon can add a sexual tone to a message? That's pretty much the main connotation of that emoticon among younger people online, in my experience. I pretty much never use the emoticon except to add sexual tone, and I would never use it in a professional communication for exactly that reason. | /r/MensRights | 30/05/13 04:51 PM |

This Feminism train reached Station B around 25 years ago, but the Feminists did not stop the train.Picked this out to ask - do you predicate all of these statements on their only applying to rich, Western countries? Because worldwide, given that there's still plenty of countries where women can't go on the streets without suffering constant sexual harassment (there's a good video on this where a male Egyptian actor cross-dressed quite convincingly and went out on the streets with a hidden camera team following him to see all the harassment), countries where rape is basically ignored by releva… | /r/MensRights | 30/05/13 04:34 PM |

It's an indefinite promise not to have sex with other people, not an indefinite promise to have sex with the other person. And it's not even indefinite. It has temporal limits defined by both parties' continued willingness to be married. | /r/TheRedPill | 26/04/13 07:44 PM |

I can understand why it isn't fun, but I hope you'll equally understand that insults and angry declamations don't make you better at arguing.

| 3 | Double standards in dating and socially acceptable appearance paradigms.If an inch can be a psychological difference then so can weight. Yes, can. Not is. One inch of height would not be equivalent to 1% of body fat, so you were comparing apples to oranges. Not exactly equivalent, but very close. Again, this is a totally superficial rebuttal. One inch of body height on the average woman is ~1.5% of their total height. So compare it to a 1.5% bodyfat or 1.5% body weight increase composed of fat. Either way the point stands - no chance you're actually arguing that you… | /r/MensRights | 14/03/13 08:01 PM |

Yes, as a matter of empirical fact it can create a psychological difference in human interaction. "Enormous" I suppose would depend on your point of view, but since I didn't say that I won't defend my statement against your view of what "enormous" means.

She runs marathons. A 5'2 girl who weights 150 and plays softball might also call herself athletic. Yes, and the latter would be lying. She could lie about her weight directly, too. Personally, I'd rather just know what her height/weight ratio is. I don't care about BMI. If a 5'2 girl is 120 lbs, I can figure the rest out. If she's 195 lbs, I can figure that out too.

You want equality; pay the difference!Totally unrelated, but I just gotta say that the concept of 14 year olds driving is incredible to me. When I was 14 I probably thought I was totally ready and was so jealous of friends who lived in other states/provinces that let you drive at that age. But now? ...damn, 14 year olds driving? Still think it's a little ridiculous that 14 year olds are allowed to drive unaccompanied on the roads, though. I know 14 year olds that are barely more than children. | /r/MensRights | 14/03/13 07:05 PM |

If a girl is 5'2, she can list "curvy" and you really have no idea what that means because some women think they're curvy when they're actually fat. You're missing the point. They can use an out-of-date weight that they know isn't quite accurate, too. The point that men care about body shape instead of quantitative weight is really kind of hard to argue with. You're right that it's easier to fudge a body type than a body weight, but the poi… | /r/MensRights | 14/03/13 06:14 PM |

Just for the record, this isn't the law in Canada. 16 is the universal age of consent with no close in age requirement. They should look into providing prices on a more case by case basis.

Maybe within the context of radical feminism being a man might be a disadvantage, but that is an extremely contrived example. | /r/MensRights | 02/01/13 08:54 PM |
| 2 | My sister strongly believes that the pay gap is 100% true. I really don't have that much evidence or knowledge about how it is false, but I still want to prove her wrong.There are a lot of reasons that the pay gap exists that do not reflect current discrimination against women. That said, there are also studies that show current gender discrimination against women, particularly in scientific fields. Not the overt misogynist "I HATE WOMEN" variety, but quantitative demonstrations that equally qualified women are perceived as less competent than equally qualified men - by both men and women. It's a very complex issue. | /r/MensRights | 04/10/12 04:29 PM |
| 3 | Alcoholic mother gets so drunk that she stumbles into her child's play pen. "Good for you! It's YOUR choice," cheer feministsI hope she had a sober friend watching the kids. If so, good for her. (If not, that's hugely irresponsible.) I would totally support a father getting blasted drunk every once in a while to unwind if he enjoyed that as a method of unwinding, and I support the exact same right for women. That's called equality. | /r/MensRights | 04/10/12 03:47 PM |
