| 1 | (UK) Girls will no longer be sent to youth prisons.which shouldn't get prison time at all, for anyone. As usual every so often people kick around the notion that imprisoning people for offences other than violent and recidivist crime, turns out maladjusted individuals who can't find work and probably have drug issues. And then it gets forgotten about for a while. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 10/03/25 06:39 AM |
| 1 | Let's talk more about some women not being able to tell the difference between equality and misogyny.'Misogyny' does get used oddly sometimes, it's true. Situation: official of some kind is yelling through the door at the occupant (female): "I know you've got children in there!" Now this is intimidating and nasty behaviour, but misogyny? Yet it was described that way when I heard about it. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 09/02/25 07:33 AM |

| 18 | Prison isn't working for women, ministers say. Can it be fixed?You could practically replace the word 'women' with 'people' in this article. This debate does concern me - while discussing the 4% of prison inmates who are women, there is nothing said about the probably larger number of male inmates who really shouldn't be there, nor of alternatives to prison. Do we "need more prison spaces"? No, we need to, maybe, only imprison violent or prolific offenders. Which would reduce the numbers right away. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/10/24 10:49 AM |
| 23 | A lot of people are really trying so hard to demonize single men. But they are struggling though.There is a lot about single women though, mostly about how empowering it is. There are entire happily-single online communities, which are mostly female-dominated, and which very often see people go on about how much happier women are being single, than men in the same situation. This does not, however, often lead to a greater focus on male singlehood though. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 29/09/24 03:34 PM |

| 30 | Fictional female empowerment = AbuseI've long noticed this, it's just bad writing. Strong female character should = well-written. Instead it very often means violent abusive jerk who would be called just that if they were male. Edit: although it shouldn't stop people writing well-drawn female characters who also have a dark side. Recall the fuss over "Tar" - "film about a woman conductor! Great! Oh, she is a control freak and really quite unpleasant? Couldn't she have been a man instead?" | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 31/07/24 06:31 AM |

| 5 | Single women are happier... Whats your perspective on this?Yes, the "Half of marriages" thing is misleading. Someone who is happily married for 40 years adds only one marriage to the total. But the person who serially marries and divorces, and possibly shouldn't be married because not suited to it, adds more, and skews the ratio. Perhaps "number of people who have been divorced Vs those who haven't" would be more representative. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/06/24 06:57 PM |
| 5 | I have a question (actually, quite a few) for this community, aka leftistsCampaigning against all violence would be a good start. There are initiatives against VAWG but while men, especially younger men, are frequently victims of violence there seems to be no outcry against it.

(this is based largely on Twitter until I left it a month ago, and Community of Single People on FB until I left that due to open misandry and double-standards). | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 29/03/22 02:50 AM |

| 6 | why is male health in general still mocked and "tokenized" by society?They also said 'men don't have to worry about being stalked' which ignores at very least that there are different kinds of stalking. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 15/01/22 08:54 AM |
| 36 | why is male health in general still mocked and "tokenized" by society?In one place I worked (2012-15) they advertised a women's health session and then said "There's also men's health because otherwise men feel left out." Not, like, that there might be male-specific health issues, like but not limited to certain male-specific cancers, a higher incidence of alcohol abuse, being less likely to seek medical health in the first place, etc, etc? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 12/01/22 04:17 PM |
| 53 | Female replacements deprive boys of good role modelsThis is an issue that had occurred to me with crime fiction. The victim in the story can be male or female (but increasingly female, because empathy). The investigating officer can be male or female (but increasingly female, because empowerment). But the criminal is almost always male. While I agree that most violent crime is committed by men, the obsession with crime fiction could lead to a distorted view of just how many men (clue: not many) actually commit violent crime. As you might say watc… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 26/11/21 04:33 PM |
| 2 | In the UK a woman walking alone at night was abducted and killed. A debate was started that men rather than those walking at night need to change their behaviour. This recent AskReddit proves men take action when walking alone at night, so why is the media saying the opposite?There have also been several murders of men in the news recently - not just David Amess - yet for some reason it's never generalised. Nobody says "why are so many men being murdered?" I don't know why this is never asked. | /r/MensRights | 24/10/21 05:42 AM |

| 3 | It’s exhausting that whore and slut are called out as being sexist, whereas loser and Virgin are totally acceptable insults to menthe word 'incel' gets used to mean 'someone whose opinions I find distasteful' these days anyway. Its meaning has drifted. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 17/10/21 06:38 AM |

| 17 | It’s exhausting that whore and slut are called out as being sexist, whereas loser and Virgin are totally acceptable insults to menThere's a lot about this at the moment really. That women with autism are under-diagnosed. However if the main 'tells' for autism are social isolation and obsessive interests, and girls and women are less likely to be socially isolated, then it's presumably a matter of the wrong signals being read. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 15/10/21 06:32 AM |
| 2 | Why is telling a man not to do something seen as misogyny?i've seen a couple of so-called jokes on Twitter (which platform I no longer use) that I would class as sexist to both men and women. To men because they're telling men what they can and can't do and that doing certain things is only for women - and to women because it's implying that that 'thing only for women' is inferior. E.g. shaming men for keeping a diary, or having a cat. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 10/10/21 07:06 AM |
| 1 | Do you think one of the reasons for distrust of trans-women is misandry?I've always suspected so, rather than misogyny as in 'transmisogyny', because the people who hate transwomen see them not as women but as 'failed men' or just 'men'. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 09/10/21 12:07 PM |
| 10 | 13,000 upvotes on Reddit's largest feminist subreddit downplaying men's issues and attacking MRAs for believing that misandry is real (while relying on the apex fallacy). But remember it's only fringe extremist feminists who have these views. TRUE feminists take men's issues seriously! /sQuite.

| 5 | How dare these boys and young men think that their lives might be worth preserving!That's roughly what I've heard as well. Having worked with refugees in a homeless shelter, most of them were looking for a way to bring their families out (in this case to the UK). Also (your second point) men of military age are likely to be seen as enemy combatants by the ruling faction, regardless of whether they actually are. So they are the primary target. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 18/08/21 05:39 AM |

| 15 | For Too Long TV has portrayed men and fathers as bumbling idiots, especially in sitcoms - this is changing a little now, but it needs to be called out more. Let the creators of adverts, etc know on social media etc (this is happening as MRAs become much more active online)And yet they double down on it as seen here: https://variety.com/2021/tv/features/kevin-can-fk-himself-valerie-armstrong-worldbuilding-interview-1234975353/ All very well to talk about "the behavior sitcom husbands, neighbors and fathers have been allowed to get away with for decades." but hold on, back up a moment - they're fictional characters! How about the way the characters are written? (The New Yorker were a lot less complimentary about the show btw). | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 14/06/21 06:13 PM |

| 2 | The mental health struggles of single men, very well described in this articleWhy don't they? Maybe they like being single for other reasons, but there are societal issues that make it more difficult. The suggestion that 'they should just get a wife / girlfriend / partner' seems to come from a very conservative position, i.e. just be part of the traditional setup, while at the same time the media is applauding women for being independent and not needing to be in a couple - compare the amount of literature about single women, starting from but not limited to "All the Singl… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/05/21 08:02 AM |
