1	If a woman stops taking the pill to get pregnant, without the consent of the man she is sleeping with - is that also rape? The issue isn't that she stopped taking the medication, the issue is that she continued to sleep with him in a way in which he id not give given informed consent, and would not have if she had told him the truth. If she had said, "Honey, I stopped taking the pill, and I want to have sex" he could have given or withheld consent.	/r/MensRights	28/11/22 11:33 PM
1	My wife constantly physically abuses me. How do I get her to stop? You need to start documenting everything even if you have no intention of leaving. The reason is mainly to protect yourself in the event of a divorce or accusation that you're the violent one. Don't underestimate what fear of being in trouble could drive her to.	/r/MensRights	03/10/22 03:49 PM
7	Denying Accused Students Ability To Cross-Examine Accusers Violates Due Process, Court Rules I don't know that it really helps to emulate them, though.

6	I'm a woman, and despise feminism in 2018 One perspective on friendzoning is that the girls have already taken their friendship further, gladly accepting the benefits of the signalled romantic interest, but have such an unchecked sense of entitlement as to be surprised/offended that anyone has any issue with their failure to reciprocate. I think the big problem is that this isn't being passed on by the previous generation the way it would have in the past. There's such a vested interest in the idea that young women should have the same …	/r/MensRights	28/04/18 10:01 AM
1	Here is a good flowchart which can be used to determinine if a rape case was handled correctly (taken from lawcomic.net) What if a girl is raped by a guy in a gang and his gang will get revenge if the police come for him? I'm not even talking about a mafia gang, just a street gang. These things do happen. And yes, if she doesn't document things and has no evidence likely she will not be able to prove she was raped. And yes,. that means therefore we as a society should not apply the punishment we normally would for rape. But what if she could prove it? What if later he's on the wrong side of his gang and she still …	/r/MensRights	17/04/18 10:34 PM
7	Here is a good flowchart which can be used to determinine if a rape case was handled correctly (taken from lawcomic.net) There's a huge difference between a rapist being brought to justice after a long period of time and an unjust of accusation being allowed to run rampant in the court of public opinion and kangaroo campus courts. There are actually legitimate reasons why a person might keep silent. An easy example is blackmail, also threats of violence and so on. The problem isn't the silence, it's treating "coming forward" as proof without any other evidence, or adding in other non-evidence such as potentially c…	/r/MensRights	17/04/18 02:48 PM

I don't know about infinitely more fucked up, cause having sex with your thirteen year old student is pretty amazingly bad to begin with. That being said, if the girls he abused actually had mental disabilities then that is definitely worse, no question. Idly looking around for a moment though I found a bunch of articles about him.

3	White knight's pandering is crushed spectacularly by a feminist woman - some good info here she’s saying it’s sexist to deify women. She is, and it is. It denies them the ability to choose between good and evil, and it even denies them the ability to understand themselves. That's also true. Instead it teaches them to act like children, or more accurately males under the age of reason. It’s another example of men trying to control women by defining them. She didn't accuse all males of that at any point or even say that it was a conscious decision, she just told him to stop doing it. I m…	/r/MensRights	25/02/18 06:15 PM
2	White knight's pandering is crushed spectacularly by a feminist woman - some good info here She might say that at some other point, but I'm not seeing that in the images posted here. She does seem to be saying Michael Moore is sexist for his "Women are wonderful" post, and she does unfortunately believe in the patriarchy theory, but she doesn't say anything in those images that says men are sexist pigs. I read it twice. Maybe you can help me find it. In fact she literally says women are no better than men.	/r/MensRights	25/02/18 05:31 PM

As Abraham Lincoln said, "The best way to repeal a bad law is to enforce it strictly." You can see the same pattern with censorship, free speech advocates tend to stand up for everyone, where the group doing the censoring only rally around those they agree with. The effect is that you have a coalition against censoring some famous example in the group in power (and so it may be overturned) and a much sm…	/r/MensRights	11/10/17 12:56 PM

If you follow Sulkowicz's timeline what actually happened was more that she and Nungresser were "friends with benefits" until he was away from her for the summer and met somebody else, then decided he was in a formal relationship with that somebody else. It really seemed like they were basically a couple in every working sense, complete with endearments and expressions of love, but while pretending they didn't have a commitment or relationship.

It's one of those things that's been around for a very long time but it's more obvious when people communicate casually in a written format. The shift is essentially I would have said. -> I would've said. -> I would of said.

There is a telling lack of both blacks and men, though. It's very hypocritical given their stance on diversity. It's especially hypocritical in light of their support of things like the black Oscars controversy, in which they argued for some sort of quota for the Oscars to have black actors, directors, etc. represented.

Honestly if you were really paranoid about it there are ways around that.

As much as we can all agree that someone who owns up to a lie after 5-6 years of unjust imprisonment for a man did a terrible thing, frightening them off the confession with a promise of punishment would be worse.

18	Woman complains the "system" doesn't allow her to be a 1970s housewife anymore. I would maybe say it has more to do with the substantial increase in the size of the workforce due to women insisting on being part of it, which devalues labor and also removes the pressure to pay enough for a single breadwinner to provide for a full family. At least under our current system if one parent makes enough to support the entire family there's the option for the other parent (generally the women but not of necessity the woman) to stay at home and manage the household.
