| 1 | 500,000+ Men, Over Half A Million Men, Die By Suicide Every Year. When Will Anyone Notice Outside Of The Bubble?Why do you believe we need to fix x, y, z before tackling mental health issues and treatment for men to reduce suicide deaths? Could you specify if you mean all males, just American males, or just American-Caucasians males. (statistically and culturally important) You are also contradicting yourself again, you want men to seek mental health help, but then you don't want men to seek mental health care. (""attempted suicide"", "does more harm than good", "first things first"). To me, it sounds lik… | /r/MensRights | 15/09/18 04:42 AM |
| 2 | 500,000+ Men, Over Half A Million Men, Die By Suicide Every Year. When Will Anyone Notice Outside Of The Bubble?A study was done on suicide attempts(link below), intended to be discovered prior to death, and seriously intended to die. The majority of people who reported a suicide attempt did intend to die. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapsychiatry/fullarticle/205075 So most "attempts" are seriously intent on ending their life. | /r/MensRights | 15/09/18 03:59 AM |

If there is not enough free access mental health support/services the rate of suicide is similar between countries. (Example USA & Canada have a similar suicide rate per 100,000. USA uses more guns. USA male to female ratio is 4:1, in Canada it is 2.5:1. Women who die from suicide has increased 50% since 2000 in Canada).

And to be clear, 'why more men are successful at commiting suicide' is statistically clear, it is due to methodology used. Your argument for undetected suicides is poor.

The "victim" aspect. You, accurately describe society blaming individuals on their situation (very prevalent in Libertarianism as an example, as if it were a 'choice'.)

I agree, there needs to be more male specific support, for many reasons not just suicide. However, overall we need to reduce suicide attempts. Everyone who dies from suicide, attempted suicide, but not everyone who attempts suicide is successful. If we want to prevent suicide deaths, we need to step into systems that prevent all suicide attempts.

| 1 | Answer: The military draft, and forced labor with threat of incarceraction to satisfy government's child support ordersNothing. There is circumcision of the clitoral hood, circumcision of the clitoris, circumcision of the clitoral hood and clitoris, and infibulation. There is also labiaplasty, and vaginaplasty.

| -1 | Answer: The military draft, and forced labor with threat of incarceraction to satisfy government's child support ordersIt says circumcised vagina, not circumcised clitoris(clitoral hood). No one circumcises clitorises due to it being "unattractive", however many women do get labiaplasty because they believe their vagina's labia is unattractive("roast beef" look).

| 7 | Texas Medical Doctor gets blasted for telling the truth about women physicians.I'll admit. I am a bit confused. Doctors are compensated by wRVUs. The more billable wRVUs you charge, the higher the pay cheque. This is fair. The area of contention, for example, with new grads is females receiving ~$28 per wRVU, and males ~$30 per wRVU. (assuming they sign up with a hospital or multiphysician practice) Not how much work they do. But how much they are compensated per billable procedure.

| 2 | Woman smothers baby daughter to death, throws her in creek, lies to police - walks free after 'depression diagnosis'Studies, and real life examples do demonstrate that a rehabilitation based system does work. I would prefer the Scandinavian rehabilitation system over how males or females are treated in the current justice system completely. But also release from jail/prison/rehabilitation centers should occur when the individual is rehabilitated and received appropriate mental and medical care.

What someone feels, or believes is useless in the face of factual information. My first problem with the justice system goes to how unfair it is in general. If you have money you could buy yourself a better lawyer. A better lawyer or team of lawyers can get you a better defence.

To me it seems like a logic problem and not an emotional problem. How does our justice system deal with mental illness, and is it appropriate?

| 1 | Woman smothers baby daughter to death, throws her in creek, lies to police - walks free after 'depression diagnosis'Actually I was saying that this is a mental health issue. As in ALL individuals with mental illnesses should receive better treatment/better rights. The justice system does have a route for people with mental illnesses to receive a lighter/lower/reduced sentence. However one has to prove their mental unfitness.

| 3 | Woman smothers baby daughter to death, throws her in creek, lies to police - walks free after 'depression diagnosis'Correct. I believe this to be a mental health rights issue. And the justice system is horrible for those with mental illnesses. For this particular case, it was 'easier' for her to plea guilty to a crime designed for those with a very specific mental condition caused by a very specific medical condition.

| -1 | Woman smothers baby daughter to death, throws her in creek, lies to police - walks free after 'depression diagnosis'That wouldn't be applicable as she is no longer suffering postpartum depression. It would mean any future children she has, she will receive far more medical support and depending on where she lives... A very close watch by social services. It is an unfortunate medical condition which could have been prevented with proper medical treatment and proper family support/'it takes a village' support. | /r/MensRights | 30/11/17 02:17 AM |
| 0 | Woman smothers baby daughter to death, throws her in creek, lies to police - walks free after 'depression diagnosis'I believe then the real issue is mental health rights/ mental illness rights in regards to the justice system. Understandably postpartum mental illnesses are.... 'Short term' and can be resolved with time & possibly medication.

| 24 | Woman smothers baby daughter to death, throws her in creek, lies to police - walks free after 'depression diagnosis'Ah. Okay so that makes some sense as to why men can not be charged/plead guilty of infanticide. Since it is specific to the physical/mental issues concerning pregnancy causing an infant death. If that is the case, how is this a 'men's rights' issue? Or is this a mental health/illness rights issue? | /r/MensRights | 30/11/17 12:05 AM |
| 1 | Woman smothers baby daughter to death, throws her in creek, lies to police - walks free after 'depression diagnosis'That actually would depend on how good of a lawyer you have and the judge/jury.

However postpartum depression & postpartum psychosis are not long term conditions. Possibly even controlled with medications. How the law treats the mentally ill has pro's and con's.

| 11 | Woman smothers baby daughter to death, throws her in creek, lies to police - walks free after 'depression diagnosis'It's historical. Babies and children died very often in the past, that it was assumed you'd lose several children. And it possibly still is that way in many third world countries.

But certainly if you feel you need men's only weightlifting time/space, request it. I'm sure a formal request will be taken seriously if you can clearly outline why you require it. However, in… | /r/MensRights | 12/09/17 09:41 AM |
| 24 | Public university, they don't have a time reserved for men only weightlifting. Is that not discrimination?I'm sure you could request a men's only weightlifting time. It probably isn't in place currently due to a lack of requests for it. | /r/MensRights | 12/09/17 09:23 AM |
| 1 | In the U.S., there are twice as many women over the age of 85 than men, but no 'men's health' programs.You said Your argument that we can't raise the dead is odd... Shouldn't we treat people before they die? In response to my ...we can't raise the dead. The problem is mental health concerns, and I have covered that several times & agreed male guided mental health is very much necessary. So my argument is: we need male guided mental health, before they commit suicide. What do you not like about my argument? | /r/MensRights | 24/08/17 02:40 AM |

| 1 | In the U.S., there are twice as many women over the age of 85 than men, but no 'men's health' programs.Not myself, but perhaps the posts that make it to r/all are considered controversial. And with controversy comes 2 or more sides, with strong opinions. Strong opposition positions breaks echo chambers. I doubt r/all is against having a men's health agency, assuming it covers issues that are male health specific. ....But in the particular list of issues covered in this specific post, some items fall outside of health care. (Dying at work, is not a health care issue.) And some items are not necess… | /r/MensRights | 24/08/17 02:30 AM |
| 1 | In the U.S., there are twice as many women over the age of 85 than men, but no 'men's health' programs.You have an argument technique of non sequitur. Cherry picking & strawman logic fallacies. This is where I suggest you refine your argument skills, in avoiding logic fallacies for productive conversations. Testicles, prostate, and male guided mental health, 100% should have a man's health agency because those are male issues. You asked a doctor, to educate and heal male diseases. Suicide isn't a disease that can be healed, we can not raise the dead. The problem is mental health concerns, and I h… | /r/MensRights | 24/08/17 02:04 AM |
| 6 | In the U.S., there are twice as many women over the age of 85 than men, but no 'men's health' programs.educating and healing diseases that cause men to have 60% higher mortality rate Suicide isn't a disease. High work death rates is not a disease. I never stated, nor implied being against having a man's health agency. Perhaps you are being angry at the wrong people. Or perhaps your argument needs refinement. You should consider that not everything needs a man specific agency despite higher death rates. Testicles, prostate, and male guided mental health: definitely, 100% should have a man's health… | /r/MensRights | 23/08/17 04:59 AM |

| 4 | In the U.S., there are twice as many women over the age of 85 than men, but no 'men's health' programs.Doctors can't heal lifestyle choices.... Example: doctor says you need to eat your prescribed diet to keep blood sugars down... So the wound on your foot can heal... or we are going to have to cut off your foot because it will be too far gone to fix. And then proceed to not follow the diet. & have foot amputated. (I'm sure better examples exist, but I went with the obvious consequences example) Edit: spacing | /r/MensRights | 23/08/17 02:38 AM |

Heart disease in general needs a revamp. (cholesterol particle size matters!) but as far as increased risk for men, is it genetic or lifestyle? Aids is already in multiple programs, but targeting homosexuals and drug addicts mostly. Suicideis horrible, mental health needs a massive revamp, and stigma needs to be removed! But the majority of mental health is a doctor giving you medication, which is no… | /r/MensRights | 23/08/17 02:31 AM |

But checking breasts is consider sexy. Is Mo-vember the largest promotional campaign? Doesn't even have word prostate in the campaign name! I'm going to go out on a limb, and say it is a generational problem. Both cancers are just as common! But there is a hush-hush from men with prostate cancer, like they don't want to admit it.... Anecdotal, obviously... | /r/MensRights | 23/08/17 02:13 AM |
