Wait ... are you saying that attempted rape is rape? Isn't that like saying that attempted murder is murder?

In NISVS, the last "S" stands for "Survey" which means that these numbers are based on a survey, not on police reports. So this tells us that men respond on a survey that they've been raped more than women respond on a survey that they've been raped. It's far from clear how these numbers relate to what's really going on either way.

Wait a minute. These are only reported rapes, right? So what this shows is that men report more rapes. It doesn't show how many actually occur.

About time. Coding, unlike bathrooms, is not the sort of thing which needs to be exclusive to girls or to boys.

I tell feminists that God doesn't care about your bodily autonomy when it comes to abortion. I tell MRAs the exact same thing.

Shortly after I moved away from college and had to pay for laundry by the load, I got rid of all my white clothes. The cost of laundry was thus instantly cut in half.

This works as a joke, to show the absurdity of expecting equal pay. Male models are nowhere near as much in demand as female models. They don't get paid as much as women for the same reason women's sports don't pay as much as men's sports. It's supply and demand and there's nothing wrong with that. Men and women are different.

Life would be very boring if everyone was equal in all things.

The message is NOT anti-abortion. What if it was? Would that get one banned or censored?
/r/MensRights31/08/16 01:00 AM

True. But the converse is also true. MRAs: It's always rights for men and responsibilities for women.

Either we make it just as shitty for women as it is for men or we make it just as good for men as it is for women. Why? There is another option: Treating men and women fairly and differently in some circumstances. Because fairness is not always the same thing as equality.

Should disparaging and condescending remarks about men made my women be considered hate crime? This sort of question shows why the men's rights movement is the same as feminism only for men. If it really opposed feminism on principle then you'd be asserting that "hatespeech" and "hatecrime" are Orwellian Newspeak anti-concepts just like "wrongthink" and "thoughtcrime", not asking whether their already absurdly vague definitions should be expanded into even further depths of arbitrary meaningless…

The problem here is that they are assuming that being oppressed is required to deserve representation. In the U.S., our Founding Fathers idea was that paying taxes was all that was required to deserve representation, not being oppressed. To argue with this on the grounds of whether men actually are oppressed or not would be accepting the false premise that they need to be oppressed in order to deserve representation. Do not accept their false premise.

How,exactly, does that sub differ from /r/AskMen again? /r/AskMen is for serious questions. This one is for humorously subverting silly, stupid, loaded questions from feminists by answering them literally. On /r/AskMen a really stupid question is likely to get downvoted. On /r/MansplainThis we'd want the silliest questions upvoted. /r/AskMen is looking for what it's sidebar calls "valuable discussion." /r/MansplainThis is looking for humor value.

Because Wikipedia is authored by Marxists That's true surprisingly often, but not relevant in this case. What is relevant is the sources they cite.
/r/MensRights07/04/15 09:33 PM

Nope. It's just a tool. You might want to update Wikipedia's entry on means of production then, because it lists both tools and computers as means of production. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Means_of_production

A PC isn't a means of production. It is if it's used as an instrument of labor to produce things

Sorry, I haven't got time to debate this with you. I'm too busy oppressing the working class with my ownership of the means of production. (my PC)

And that nullifies entirely your statement that you thought Stalin / Mao was bad for any other reason. Communists come in degrees of badness, not degrees of goodness. One can be relatively better than another -- I mean, the self-identified Marxist hipster at your local Starbucks isn't a mass murdering totalitarian dictator like Stalin - but none are what I'd call good or positive forces in the world.
/r/MensRights07/04/15 07:40 PM

I'm not a Stalinist. I just think he was a good Communist. Oh OK ... sorry for the misunderstanding then. As an anti-Communist, I find the concept that there is such a thing as a good Communist somewhat problematic, but whatever.

Most Marxists today are either too smart or too dumb to call themselves "Marxists." The ones that are too dumb accept pretty much everything out of Marx on principle without knowing that they're ultimately getting it from Marx. (they're getting it from some in the second group) The ones that are too smart know that "Marxist" has gotten a well deserved bad rep thanks to Stalin, Mao and company, so they call themselves "progressives" or some other crap.

So you're comparing the 2? I guess I don't understand . I'm making fun of the stupid, preachy tone of the original.

You're making up the word I have already proven that I did not, and you have yet to address that argument. so i have no idea what you think it means Liar. I told you specifically what I think it means, and from that point on, you knew. Also, you've asserted that there is no such thing as cultural Marxism, which must mean that you have some idea what it is which you are asserting there is no such thing as. or if you use it consistently. This is the only true statement in your post. You don't know…

Marxism doesn't apply to culture. It's about economics. I didn't say I supported critical theory or the Frankfurt School. It's nonsense, and so much so that even the classical Marxists wouldn't approve of it. I know that. But they (the Frankfurt school and the critical theorists) are motivated by their particular brand of Marxism, which takes stuff out of the Communist Manifesto chapter 2, which actually does address alot of cultural stuff.

You made up a nonsense word. Which word did I make up? "Cultural marxism" is a right wing term, not a left wing term. it's like "SJW". it's a term used only by the opponents. SJW is only used by the opponents. And "cultural Marxism" is only used by the opponents now. The only reason it is no longer used by it's proponents is that the opposition has figured out what the hell it is and to the cultural Marxists, that's bad, because it's something they're desperate to hide. They don't want people to…

This is the same bait and switch feminists pull with the word "patriarchy". What the hell, man? What do you think cultural Marxism is if it isn't what I said it was from the start?

There are no "Cultural Marxists". Yes there are, you idiot. Take a course in philosophy and then come back. Bait and switch. Marxism as applied to culture was the intellectual focus of the Frankfurt School. And yes, that would be cultural Marxism.
/r/MensRights07/04/15 05:48 AM

yes. The history is it was made up. Seriously. You're telling us that the Frankfurt School, which I spent a great deal of time on in my Philosophy of Aesthetics course at UMKC last Fall, never actually existed, but was actually a fabrication of the political Right? I suppose Horkheimer, Adorno, Marcuse, Pollock, Fromm, Kirchheimer, Löwenthal and Neumann's works were all constructions fabricated by the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy sometime around the year 2000 in order to falsify the other side's i…

This is pure nonsense. It's like feminists pretending the word "patriarchy" only means a society ruled by fathers. Do you know of any feminists who actually say that? Now, I do acknowledge that there are some crazy right wingers out there who abuse the term "cultural Marxism" to mean "any random crap that I personally don't happen to agree with." I ran into a crazy guy on a conservative subreddit who said I was a cultural Marxist because I'm an integrationist on race instead of a racial separati…

Feminists are right wing, not left wing Yeah, I'm sure Rush Limbaugh, Pat Robertson, Ayn Rand and William F. Buckley will get right on that. there's no such thing as "Cultural Marxism" Considering that cultural Marxism is a term coined by cultural Marxists, not by anti-Marxists like myself, this is ridiculous. I gave you the definition of cultural Marxism: the Frankfurt School ideology and critical theory. Are you saying that the Frankfurt School didn't exist? Are you saying the critical theory …

The question is more why the hell would a Libertarian be a feminist, but some claim to be both. What are their views on gamergate? The majority of #GamerGate supporters are left-leaning libertarians, not social conservatives like me. But everyone in #GamerGate are basically anti-censorship and against corruption in games journalism which we have discovered to be widespread. We have found that lately, ever since everyone except ISIS (even other social conservatives) finished their standing ovatio…

First, why didn't you answer my question? Do you recognize the fact that Marxists who are also scumbags are a thing that exists or not? I bet you could find some libertarians who are. Um ... no? I can't? Why the hell would a libertarian be attacking video games? I mean ... what!?

Maybe you're right after all. I dunno, I thought that a 2:3 ratio meant there were 1/3 more, not 1/2 more.
/r/MensRights06/04/15 11:49 PM

Also true of Libertarians so why doesn't it say that? Because libertarians aren't attacking video games etc. Marxists are. BTW, I'm not a libertarian.
/r/MensRights06/04/15 11:45 PM

It says scumbag Marxists. That would be scumbags who are also Marxists and/or Marxists who are also scumbags. The intersection of the two categories of scumbag and Marxist, which I am not claiming contains all Marxists, and certainly doesn't contain all scumbags. Surely even you recognize that scumbag Marxists are a thing that exists.

Men are 40% of students, women are 60%. That's 50% more women than men. What? No it's not. I'm no math whiz, but that does not sound correct.

50% more women are getting educated, not 33%. Really? 33% is what I found on Google.

Of course you wouldn't understand what I meant by rational adults. That's not an answer to my question. You need to answer my question first before I'm going to answer any more of yours.

No, I asked whether your claim about "rational adults" was analytic (true because of definitions) or synthetic? (true because of facts about the world)

According to Wikipedia, studies show that reported incidence of sexual assault on campus ranges from 3.5 to 35 per 1000. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campus_rape So while it isn't 1-in-5 or anywhere even remotely close to 1-in-5, it is a real thing that does occur.

"Rape culture" is real, because it is in fact widespread that young women are often getting taken advantage of sexually while intoxicated without consent at these wild college parties, and that's what "rape culture" means. There are lots of young men who deal in date rape drugs, manipulation etc. Since that is a real phenomenon, "rape culture" is a legitimate concept (not an anti-concept) at least when it's defined so as to stay restricted to that. But 1-in-5 sounds like an absurdly high estimat…
