| – | How else could the history of society have gone?I've seen that video before, it's great. That's right, according to them men worshipped women for their mysterious pregnancy ability (nevermind the fact that even animals understand how pregnancy works). But then once we turned to agriculture, men decided women's ability to bear children was worth nothing, hence they set up marriage where a wife and her children would be supported by her husband. /s | /r/MensRights | 04/05/17 11:46 PM |
| – | How else could the history of society have gone?All hail the once great matriarchy with its majestic vagina yogurts and yeast breads! I do have to wonder how feminists believe this actually happened. I know they think it's tied to becoming an agrarian society which shut women out of power by tying them to the household, but, if they were so mighty and great before... how exactly did they lose their power? | /r/MensRights | 04/05/17 08:45 PM |

| – | This Girl's Brutally Honest Opinion On How Feminism Has Led To Man-Hating Is Spot OnThe advocacy of women having the right to vote began in the 1840s with a small upperclass group of women and men. However when polled, the majority of females in the country voted that they did not want this. When finally a majority said they did (and there were already about 20 states where they could vote and many cities), then universal suffrage for women was made official law for the country. | /r/MensRights | 22/04/17 06:55 PM |

It's kind of more that there was no reliable birth control, so most women if they had regular sex would inevitably get pregnant and give birth over and over again.

| – | Who else here were taught that women are romantic creatures who seek a spiritual connection, and how did the truth not reach us by age 10?The worst part is that women themselves believe this. They never question how romantic notions are completely female-directed ("A man doing something for a woman is always a good thing!") and that their attraction to a man's "personality" is more about his potential to make money. Something that really shows this is female romantic movies/books.

Hypocrites.Firstly, an inexperienced partner may buy into the myth that there is a sure-fire “formula” for bringing your female partner to climax and feel discouraged when his attempts flop. These myths are taught through false depictions of pleasure found in various media, most notably porn aimed at straight men.

In the male situation, he finds out he had no child at all and also that it was his partner who deceived him with a child of an affair. The only way a male could do the same thing would be if he convinced his wife she was pregnant when she wasn't and then pretended the baby of his mistress' was theirs.

| – | Congrats girl! Fiance of former Miss California scoops his 25th medal... The comments are gold.Someone made a comment under the article that the Bear lineman's wife was from their hometown and in their newspaper the husband wasn't mentioned. But that makes sense because it was newsworthy enough for her to be from their hometown and have won in the Olympics. But for a national newspaper, it would reach more people if they mention that she's the wife of a famous football player. I'm sure there is a similar effect for men who are unbeknownst except for having a more famous wife. | /r/MensRights | 11/08/16 04:31 PM |

If that were true, how would any woman have ever been made queen? Everyone might think that the puppy is cute, but if a bear's about to attack you, you probably don't feel the need to sacrifice your life for the protection of the disabled puppy.

| 5 | The reason why men have little or no support when they're raped - male privilegeI think it always comes down to the idea that men had to be praised in order to get them to do certain things, i.e. "men are more intelligent and logical than women, that's why they need to work and women shouldn't" as well as "men are stronger and braver than women, hence they need to go to war".

| 6 | Countering the "victim card" narrative [request]Flipping the gender. We view men as actors, people who do things, and we view women as objects, people who have things done unto them. The best examples of this are how female criminals are viewed by society. A mother kills her five children? "She is not at fault, it is society that places too much expectations on mothers." We would never feel that way about a father who kills his five children. | /r/MensRights | 08/08/16 05:23 PM |

Most men are fine with this, but it seems women are incapable of hearing any kind of criticism of their sex, hence they view the "right" kind of treatment of women to be pandering to them, placing them above men in word and deed.

There are some extremely graphic scenes depicting male on male rape, which makes the Sansa scene (or any rape scene in GoT) look like a video of puppies romping.

It just makes you a person with preferences, affected by the society, and don’t make you responsible for that society’s problemsShe highlighted the actual reasons why women have always desired chivalrous behavior from men: "it means he really likes me". From the female viewpoint, she is in a position of power wherein she gets to see just how many things he's willing to do for her, money to spend on her, curb his behavior to suit her. The man who can do that demonstrates how much hold she has over him, therefore showcases his suitability as a long-term "partner".
