I have to read this book as part of a class about social issues in education. I have my reading notes and basically they created a new definition of racism that requires racism to have different factors: A. historically based (i.e. women have always been underrepresented in government B. ideological factors (ideas about male superiority are internalized and acted on by both groups, suffrage movement had to convince women that they should be able to vote C. institutional power (men historically d…

Excellent point! You can't make such broad assumptions about a whole gender.

That's a pretty good way of putting it!

The workings of the US government may be a little over my head, but I'm pretty sure that they offer subsidies to poorer families and single impoverished mothers with children. Wouldn't it be less expensive to pay for birth control than providing help for a family in need? What about the medical aspects of the birth control pill? The spermicide and sponges don't have any medical aspects to them, and I don't think they are covered in Canada.

So there should be no reason that men's birth control products should be ignored by government funding then. Do you think that the government will eventually make birth control affordable only to the wealthy?

In general or from that post? Where do you suggest that I look for other people's opinions? I was merely explaining my reason for posting an issue about women's reproductive health to a men's rights subreddit.

So who should determine motives? Is it up to a woman to be honest about her intentions or should doctors be more careful when prescribing it?

I guess I should have phrased it differently. It's difficult to get a wide range of responses from people in "real life" so I turned to the internet for an opinion. Men's Rights seemed to be the place where I could find the most number of educated and well-informed citizens on the matter. :) Here's an interesting question: Do you believe that women's birth control is paid for by the government because it stops them from having children or because it protects from various other health problems? T…

Well that sounds great! :)

I totally agree.

A few people have pointed out that it's not just about birth control, it's about society having unwanted children that people can't afford and requiring subsidies from the government. I believe that paying for birth control is a lot cheaper than paying for a child.

I remember reading about that study too! I think is also said that it may be affecting the health/fertility of men or women as well. It's pretty scary stuff. I wish we had more options that were safer for both genders. Is there anything I can do government-wise to promote male birth control research?

Beautiful response. I think that men should get equal funding for the development for a effective birth control method too.

Ugh, you men's rights people are so anti-women! Lol, jk, that sounds totally reasonable and fair. I can't believe some of the opposition that MRs people face. This seems to be the general argument out there about birth control, why do people have a problem with this option?!

Great reply! I think men would have to work very hard to be absolved from parenting duties, it's not an issue that I hear discussed anywhere but from men's rights groups. How are people getting MRs issues to the government or media? I'd be a little scared to go to an actual protest, I've seen some pretty radical feminists out there. I also understand the argument for women's birth control pills being covered, they can do a variety of things to help the body (like prevent ovarian cancer, prevent …

Her points about heath care and maternity leave were ones that I also disagreed with. We should be fighting for paternity leave, not trying to get rid of maternity leave!

Well that is amazing. I might post that on her initial Facebook post!

I've studied a lot of history and associate the term feminism with women's suffrage and birth control rights of the 1900s. I guess I think that 'feminists' these days need a new name, and radical seems to fit the picture, especially when their version of equality involved the trampling of other people's rights. I just feel a little sad that the idea of feminism that I am most familiar with has been tarnished... I had hoped that they were a small group but it appears to be the norm now. :( My sch…

On a related note, my feminist friend just posted this on facebook: http://i.huffpost.com/gen/966475/thumbs/o-TIMES-OF-INDIA-570.jpg?6 An interesting discussion occurred and basically she believes that "go on a date and don't rape the girl" is something that is ok to tell ALL men. Another friend attempted a discussion with her but it was turned into "you say women need to earn your respect, if you don't respect them you'll rape them." ............. I don't think I'll bother with her.

I agree about the different types of communication, I recently read a post on Reddit about how women are raised to be "subtle" in fear of being called bossy. This could be her way of asking for things without confronting everyone, especially because she hopes that men are the ones reading it. The insecurity thing is also VERY true. I know I'm not speaking for all other women, but I sometimes and read into things too much and come up with my own explanations that are sometimes way off. A simple g…

We need to look at why this document was created though. If it's common sense, why do women feel like they need to tell men about it? Is there an assumption that all men act this way or do you feel like it was created for a few?

Oh yeah, the housewife thing has definitely changed. We're respecting everyone's decisions now, which I guess is better. My university if actually offering a men's study course now in the fall. I also wish I had been aware of the Men's Rights Movement.

Yeah, I don't understand why we even need to find out ways to "turn women on." Why does this have to be so sexualized? Was this title chosen in hopes that men would read it because of the implied sexuality? That seems to go against the article's statement that men should never expect sex because of their actions... I find this list to be a little insulting and can't believe anyone would even think that men think this way.

I have seen this questioned asked multiple times in one of my feminist courses. I still have my notes for the class and can't actually find anywhere where we discussed current issues. One of the main things that I believe women need is better birth control, especially in the US (but their health care coverage needs total revamping in my Canadian opinion). However, this is not really a feminist issue because it's not about equality. Men have an even worse time with birth control due to their limi…

I agree with both of these posts, which is probably why I'm not engaging in conversation on Facebook. I don't think that there should be a feminism vs MR's type of thinking, and people should try and convince others that their viewpoints are true. The only way anything can change is if discussion happens and the parties involved are open to change. I sought out this subreddit, I wanted to learn more. I think you would have a hard time convincing a stark feminist of anything they opposed without …

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
