| 3 | Woman calls out news source for hating on male firefightersI think the underlying assumption here is faulty. There isn't proportionality to the general population in almost any domain. People are more or less likely to choose certain professions because of tradition and culture and those thing can correlate with gender and race quite well over long periods of time. It doesn't make sense to expect every profession to mirror the demographics of the general population, nor to automatically assume discrimination when you notice such disproportionality . | /r/MensRights | 02/03/20 05:26 PM |

The Supreme Court overturned this decision on in Jan 2013. Four justices ruled that it the law is not a violation of the equal treatment provision. (Section 15) and four determined that it was. The tiebreaker was Chief justice Beverly McLachlin who ruled that it was a violation but that it was a reasonable violation under Section 1. Her point was that Quebec has an interest in maintaining the law because to strike it down would immediately change the marital status of m… | /r/MensRights | 15/06/17 01:01 AM |

It seems to be the case that he only acted as father for a short time and found out about the paternity fraud early enough. The B.C. judge said that the child had not developed any relationship with him as they had not been together for long enough. I'd bet that if the child was older and the mother hid paternity for longer it would have gone the other way. The Ontario judge explicitly stated that paternity was "not determinative in child support ob… | /r/MensRights | 14/03/17 05:54 PM |

| 1 | How can we balance men's right to not have to financially support their biological children without making the rate of single motherhood in our society even worse?You're assuming that the rate of single motherhood would rise dramatically if we implemented some form of legal parental surrender which allowed men to opt out of caring for an unwanted child. I think this is a poor assumption. Women's choices to have children are not made in a vacuum. A lot of women choose to have children because they are poor and will have access to government benefits through their children. Those benefits are often gleaned from the fathers wages so the government can recove… | /r/MensRights | 17/08/16 01:06 AM |
| 23 | Men should have the right to ‘abort’ responsibility for an unborn child, Swedish political group saysShe isnt forced to keep the baby either. She can abort, adopt and in some cases even legally abandon the child anonymously through safe haven laws. If she chooses to keep the child then yes it is, and should be her responsibility alone. The man cant force her to keep or abort the baby so she shouldnt be able to force him into fatherhood either. Parental surrender makes choices harder for the woman but not impossible. And it secures a legal right for men that they dont currently have. | /r/MensRights | 10/03/16 05:56 PM |

This is a full paragrah quote: If a man ignoring a woman’s verbal “no” is committing date rape, then a woman who says “no” with her verbal language but “yes” with her body language is committing date fraud.

If they record it at all they might portray the woman as the abused party. Its not that abuse of men is rare. Its that you don't see it in the stats because of the reporting bias.

Will it create more misandry?In the long run there would be less children growing up without a father. A woman who chooses to have a baby alone can often rely on child support being forced onto the father. They are factoring that in when making their decision. If fathers had the right to opt out many of these women would choose to terminate the pregnancy or adopt out the child. In some cases there will still be kids growing up without a father but these cases would dramatically decrease. If you make parenthood voluntary, th… | /r/MensRights | 04/04/14 10:54 PM |

In the book the initial "wedding night" scene i.e. the first time they have sex is consensual and enjoyable for Dany. However after that the book does mention that Drogo repeatedly gets drunk and engages in rough sex with her that she does not enjoy.
