1	Hopefully it's not a repost: "House passes bill to automatically register young men for the draft." To any young men concerned about the draft, keep in mind that the military does not want to draft you. Not that it makes the sexism of the draft okay, but you should know that the department of defense will do everything they can to not invoke the draft. Not explicitly for moral reasons, but they don't want draftees. They'll do everything they can to avoid relying on draftees.	/r/MensRights	02/08/24 04:19 PM
4	Is touching a girl while dating illegal If you didn't ask her There's some gray area around implied consent. "Implied consent, compared to express consent (where consent is directly and clearly given with explicit words), is the agreement given by a person’s action (even just a gesture) or inaction, or can be inferred from certain circumstances by any reasonable person. The person who gives consent can withdraw the consent anytime and should have the capacity to make valid consent. The actor who gets the consent is bound by the consen…	/r/MensRights	28/01/24 02:38 PM
1	Alimony should be abolished I would probably place more limitations on alimony than currently exist in the states, but I do generally consider it bad for society if marriages are only held together by one party feeling that they couldn't support themselves without their partner. Alimony should be enough to give the affected person a chance to establish themselves financially, while considering that their resume may be impacted due to taking on less formal/professional work. As for governmental support, it seems like an unn…	/r/MensRights	20/01/24 09:49 PM
2	As a transman, woman have it easier avoid giving birth to male children I could hypothetically see it happen, but as things are today, I think it's probably very rare that sex is a major impacting factor on abortion in the west. In China, and probably many other developing nations, it's very much the opposite. It's well documented that that parents in China will choose to terminate pregnancy if the fetus is female because (1) boys are more likely to be able to financially support the family and (2) boys will carry the family name.	/r/MensRights	17/11/23 10:28 PM
3	As a transman, woman have it easier I generally lean toward the belief that neither sex explicitly "have it easier", but each will have its own upsides and downsides. Since OP is a transman, I expect that they'll more sorely miss the benefits they experienced as a woman after growing accustomed to being treated that way. This probably also highly depends on one's individual life. For example a woman in the military is likely to have more difficulties than a man in the military, whereas a man in youth education is more likely to ha…	/r/MensRights	17/11/23 10:01 PM
1	Women who complain that they're poor because they're single No. 100% male, penis, balls, Y chromosome, "gender identity" and all. Perhaps I'm more sympathetic to single men than average because I plan on staying single.	/r/MensRights	10/10/23 09:29 PM
1	Women who complain that they're poor because they're single can you even imagine if a man publicly used this line of thinking as an excuse? Yeah, I imagine that there could be a double standard here, but focusing on imaginary misandry seems kind of pointless. I'm no financial expert, but being single does seem to make finances more difficult than couples for both sexes, so I think we should simply be sympathetic to men who have the same complaint rather than dismissing the women who make it because of an imagined double standard. There are plenty of real…	/r/MensRights	10/10/23 06:37 PM
1	Male psychologist criticizing me for belonging to a “men’s rights sub” That would be an inappropriate thing for a therapist to say if he literally said that you made up a story, but I have a feeling you're paraphrasing whatever he actually said. Also, it sounds like you might have some sexist thoughts. Why does it matter that a female therapist gave you a weird guilt based rant? It sounds like you're blaming her behavior on her sex when a male therapist could have done the exact same thing. Being constantly served stories about injustices to men can (but of course …	/r/MensRights	29/08/23 05:29 AM
15	had a kid when i was 19 and regret it all. do i have any legal standing It's an awful situation, and it makes sense that you would have some really bad feelings about this, but don't let this be the end. You can get through this, recover, and get back on your feet, even if you don't have legal standing (I have no idea about that part. I'm not a lawyer or Canadian.)	/r/MensRights	24/08/23 03:45 AM
18	I used to judge men who cheat, until I stopped pron You've been brainwashed by the no-fap cult if you're starting to think that maybe cheating might not be so bad. Intrusive thoughts about cheating are understandable, but when you're starting to justify it, you're on a bad path. I empathize with your situation of being in a low sex relationship though. I was also in one while on a no-fap kick. It's really rough, and not just because of the sex, but also a general feeling of lacking intimacy. Doesn't mean you should stop judging cheaters.	/r/MensRights	06/02/23 03:24 PM
2	Woman, 28, avoids jail after grooming boy, 15, who felt like he had 'hit the jackpot'. - The fact little boys are taught by society that rape is fine if it’s inflicted on them because it’s ‘cool’. Absolutely disgusting. I don't think the boy needed social conditioning to feel happy about the situation (at least at the time), but that doesn't make what the woman did okay.	/r/MensRights	18/01/23 02:39 PM
1	How many of the slaves who died in Qatar were men? I've heard about it from several unrelated sources. Maybe it would be a bigger story if there were women affected, but this isn't a good example of stories being ignored because it only affects men.	/r/MensRights	24/11/22 04:02 PM
2	China clamps down on male reproductive rights (vasectomies) because the Chinese communist party want to enforce "a baby boom". Remember - Chinese totalitarian regime is anti-male. Now they're realizing that having a population of many elderly people and few young, able-bodied people is a huge problem. You could craft some conspiracy theories around COVID based on that, but imo an accidental lab leak is far more likely.	/r/MensRights	15/12/21 06:55 PM
5	What's with the "uncircumsised man are gross" in media? how is it not clean or healthy XD I don't get that argument. The most obvious reason is that it's an operation done without anesthetics on an infant before they even go home from the hospital they were born in. The common justification is that they won't remember the trauma, but it's nearly impossible to measure the effects of psychological trauma at such an early age.	/r/MensRights	11/12/21 09:57 PM
12	What's with the "uncircumsised man are gross" in media? Male circumcision is generally performed for the purpose of reducing blood clots This is just false. In most cases it's performed because of religious beliefs of the parents of the infant it's performed on, or because of the social norms of the region. It can be used for the purpose of reducing blood clots, but saying that's the reason it's usually done is just wrong.	/r/MensRights	11/12/21 09:43 PM
2	Donald Trump Jr is the latest to reveal that he feels men are disposable Yeah, I had a feeling that the draft also fills some non-combat roles. I don't know much about the military, and especially the specifics of how drafts work. It's a little odd to me how that aspect is left out of conversations I've seen around this issue. Seems important.	/r/MensRights	05/11/21 05:48 AM
-4	Donald Trump Jr is the latest to reveal that he feels men are disposable Do we really want women being drafted into combat roles though? Sure some exceptional women can keep up in the military, but if we're pulling random people off the street, women are far less likely to be able to fill the role. For example, if I'm injured on the battlefield and need someone to carry me to safety I'd rather it be some random guy than some random woman. Maybe I'm wrong, but I never hear anyone address this aspect of the issue.	/r/MensRights	05/11/21 04:41 AM
