| 1 | Feminism killed chivalryYou seem to think women deserve special treatment because they are women. You seem obsessed with straw men. I'm sorry, but there are only so many times that I can point this out and remain sane. | /r/MensRights | 03/07/13 03:38 AM |
| 1 | Feminism killed chivalryThe defense of chivalry is commonly "its just being polite" or "it shows you care". The point being made is that if thats true, then because its a social expectation only of men it doesnt say much about women. I'm defending chivalrous acts regardless of who performs them to the extent that it expresses caring. Just because it is a double standard does not make the actions that it produces bad. There is a stereotype that women are more nurturing. When women are nurturing is it bad? So you are def… | /r/MensRights | 03/07/13 12:18 AM |
| 0 | Feminism killed chivalryThat wasnt what you replied to. He didnt say women dont ever do nice things for men they care about, he was saying that the defense of chivalry being "it shows you care" is only applied one way and therefore forces us to conclude that women dont care about men if we accept this defense. Your logic only works if you assume that traditional chivalrous actions are the only way of showing that you care. Because this a false assumption, your logic fails. I think that everybody can agree that chivalro… | /r/MensRights | 02/07/13 09:21 PM |
| 0 | Feminism killed chivalrySo when you said "women traditionally do other things" in response to someone asking why if chivalry is about showing someone you care do women not treat men that way, you weren't defending chivalry? Chivalry is a specific set of expectations. I was not defending that at all. I am defending doing things to show someone you care, whatever those things might be. Men don't have to carry the heavier bag to show that they care. They can also cook a meal. I was merely pointing out the fact that just b… | /r/MensRights | 02/07/13 08:31 PM |
| 0 | Feminism killed chivalryWhats to refute? Well you could argue that men do those activities as much or more than women nowadays. But you didn't. You clearly dont know what a strawman is. Clearly you don't. "A straw man or straw person, also known in the UK as an Aunt Sally,[1][2] is a type of argument and is an informal fallacy based on misrepresentation of an opponent's position. You stated "So basically, women are good in the kitchen and making sandwiches." Please quote the part of my original comment where I said tha… | /r/MensRights | 02/07/13 08:11 PM |
| 1 | Feminism killed chivalryNone of these are specific a female to do towards a male. Everything is contextual. All of those things can be specific by a woman to a man, or they could not. The same goes for holding the heavier bag or opening a door or paying for a meal. She may be "socially expected" to cook a meal for someone else, but he is "socially expected" to wine and dine her with no expectations of sex. We're talking about social expectations now? Here I was thinking we were talking about things that women do to sho… | /r/MensRights | 02/07/13 08:03 PM |
| 1 | Feminism killed chivalryI never made any judgment as to what women should do, nor what they are good or bad at. It was merely the observations one one person. You made no attempt to refute my statement, nor even mention any sort of disagreement to it. All you did was set up a straw man. The fact that your comment has positive karma is a good example as to why this subreddit and MR are not taken seriously. | /r/MensRights | 02/07/13 08:00 PM |
| -5 | Feminism killed chivalryOk well about 5 people have replied asking for specific examples. I'm not going to copy and paste this to every one. Here are some examples off the top of my head: Generally, in my experience, women are more likely to: Cook a meal for someone else. Cook a dessert for other people such as by bringing it to work. Have candy out on her desk. Do dishes, laundry, or other cleaning for someone else. Purchase gifts. | /r/MensRights | 02/07/13 04:45 PM |

| 19 | How Rape Laws Remove the Presumption of Innocence - In Washington state, juries receive the following instruction: “The burden is on the defendant to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the sexual intercourse was consensual.” I'm shocked! Is this true? Not a violation of US constitution?Typically affirmative defenses must be proven by the defendant by a preponderance of the evidence. The only way that I can see this happening is if rape were defined as intercourse and consent was an affirmative defense. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affirmative_defense | /r/MensRights | 22/11/12 04:04 PM |
| 1 | Possibly the worst possible concocted evidence for male privilege.Let's face it, if you're not a WASP, your ethnic group has probably been prosecuted to some extent in the United States. | /r/MensRights | 15/11/12 10:36 AM |
| 5 | Studying for social problems....you serious?I think that women are more afraid of rape than they are of murder, but I don't ascribe that to women thinking that rape is worse than murder. I think it is about perceived threats. Women think that rape is more common than murder, thus more likely to happen to them, which makes it a greater fear. | /r/MensRights | 09/05/12 02:58 AM |
| 7 | Studying for social problems....you serious?I don't think it's that stupid. Both are the perception of a threat of physical violence towards them that can dramatically alter the way that the person acts in order to avoid that physical violence. Just because the actual physical violence is different does not mean that the perception of the threat and the change in behavior are in any way diminished. | /r/MensRights | 09/05/12 02:30 AM |
| 11 | Studying for social problems....you serious?The quote is not comparing rape to lynching. It is comparing the fear of being raped to the fear of being lynched. | /r/MensRights | 09/05/12 01:41 AM |

| 6 | Inviting a girl to coffee is "potential sexual assault"Did you see him? Did you see the talk or the conversation? Here's the difference: A guy asks a girl if she wants to get coffee at his place because he says he found it interesting. We see that and we think "hey, a guy found a girl interesting and wants to continue it in his room over coffee." You think "hey, that guy doesn't give a shit about that girl, or her talk. He is a complete liar and doesn't find her interesting at all. All he wants is to get in her pants." Now granted, nobody here witne… | /r/MensRights | 05/07/11 08:24 PM |
| 13 | Inviting a girl to coffee is "potential sexual assault"How is asking a girl to coffee in an elevator any more threatening than simply being in an elevator with her? If she was threatened, it was by the situation, not by the words. Also, you have no idea what his intent was. Don't pretend like you do. | /r/MensRights | 05/07/11 07:21 PM |
