| 11 | "Equality" office pays women more than menThis is most likely all this is, given that they don't go into detail here. This would only be newsworthy if men and women with equal working hours in the same positions would get payed differently, but that's not a claim that has been made. Just a cheap attempt to fabricate outrage by purposefully misinterpreting statistics. | /r/MensRights | 15/06/11 06:24 PM |

Psychologist Elisabeth Kwarnmark who has worked with sex offenders for many years has never before come across a case involving so many women. However, she says that the driving force behind doesn’t have to be sexual attraction to children. “It seems to have begun with the man.

He was willing to either throw a person he believed to be innocent under the bus for personal gain or he was willing extort the family of a girl he believed to be a rape victim, and undermine a verdict that considered to be legit to improve his personal carreer options.

They are anti equal rights for gay people (Ban of all kinds of gay marriage, ban of all adoption rights for gay people). They are against working parents (for a ban of state sponsored nursery schools, for a ban of kindergardens, and full-time school, meaning one parent has to give up their carreer for children unless they're rich enough to afford a nanny - everything else is "socialism" directly taken from the USSR's playbook) They want the state to… | /r/MensRights | 09/04/11 05:48 PM |
| 4 | Man is convicted of rape but receives no jail time; feminist-run protests followThis is about a guy forcing sex on a girl who said she didn't want to and basically getting away with it, because the judge considered it to be an "honest mistake" because she looked too slutty to take her "no" seriously. You don't need to define yourself as feminist to take issue with this decision. | /r/MensRights | 28/02/11 12:48 PM |

This photo is hardly proof of them having sex - it's proof of them spending time at a hotel, which she has already admitted and has been convicted of. No failure to convict her for what can be deducted from the photo at all. No wonder they didn't care about a photo that didn't contribute anything to the other charges but was good for the tabloids. In court, prosecutor Michael Lavery said it was ‘inappropriate’ to proceed on the sex charges, adding: ‘The Crown is very con… | /r/MensRights | 28/02/11 12:05 PM |

But she let the manhunt continue after they had taken DNA samples of the guy she slept with, so she knew that there was a very real chance that they could link a person to her accusations - she knew that someone might get arrested for this and she didn't care, as long as it… | /r/MensRights | 26/02/11 12:39 PM |
| 1 | SF may ban infant circumcisionThe risks of complications are proven, the risk of loss of sexual pleasure is no more contended than the alleged health benefits are. The benefit of having the patient's consent outweighs the potential discomfort an adult might feel if he has a circumcision. It can not be important enough to do it regardless of what the boys wishes might be, and then not be important enough to convince an adult of going through a few weeks of discomfort at the same time. I wager most people decide against circum… | /r/MensRights | 24/02/11 03:26 PM |
| 3 | Parents who "backpedaled" in the fight against circumcision... And then blogged about it...Keeping men from making decisions about their own body is not the right way - some people want to be circumsized, some don't, and both ways are perfectly fine. To each their own, I say - as long as you have the patient's consent. | /r/MensRights | 24/02/11 12:25 PM |

They also know that this specific case of male on female violence has been seen by more people than the show itself, and that portraying male on female violence as hilarious (as it has been on the internet) can cause a shitstorm of enraged protest, that can easily be avoided by sending a 5 second disclaimer that makes the network look good.

| 1 | SF may ban infant circumcisionThe existence of medical benefits is not scientifically proven as of now, this point has also been made to death. The risks are proven, the health benefits are at best benign and no justification for the procedure on their own. Yes, but removing the foreskin is a highly unusual cosmetic surgery - people who do get to make the choice overwhelmingly decide against having it. Therefore it can actually be argued that having your child circumsized can be abusive, because it's an irreversible act of c… | /r/MensRights | 24/02/11 10:50 AM |

| 8 | SF may ban infant circumcisionNo, the BMA's stance is not simply "needs more study". They do have a clear recommendation based on the current stand of medicine. It's "there is no compelling evidence supporting the claim that circumcision has any mentionable health benefits - do NOT have it done on yourself or your child for that reason". They would be ripped to pieces by the medical community for this recommendation if the claim that circumcision significantly lowered the HIV transmission rate was anywhere near of being scie… | /r/MensRights | 23/02/11 08:08 PM |
| 6 | SF may ban infant circumcisionThe foreskin is not compareable to a large, hairy mole - that's something that most people would want to see removed. The vast majority of men who do have the choice decide not to get circumsized. I don't even have to get into how the foreskin has functions while a mole doesn't. | /r/MensRights | 23/02/11 07:19 PM |
| 13 | SF may ban infant circumcisionAll of these studies are heavily contested. On first glance I can already see one claim your sources make that is obvious BS - "Male circumcision reduces HIV transmission. The risk of transmission from woman to man is halved." If this is the case, why is the infection rate in countries where circumcision is the norm not lower than in countries where it isn't the norm? Clearly the infection rate in the US should be considerably lower than in any western european country where circumcision is very… | /r/MensRights | 23/02/11 07:12 PM |

| 8 | SF may ban infant circumcisionNo, there are clear advantages for an early immunization that clearly outweigh waiting for the patient's consent - the child could get seriously sick or even die in the worst case. Purely cosmetic procedures are a different matter. | /r/MensRights | 23/02/11 05:47 PM |
| 13 | SF may ban infant circumcisionIt's a MR-issue because it's about the right to make choices over your own body, which is denied exclusively to baby boys in this case. I don't think it's outrageous demand if you want to give patients the right to give or withhold their consent to a purely cosmetic procedure. Not remembering the pain hardly outweighs the chance to make this choice for oneself. | /r/MensRights | 23/02/11 05:45 PM |
| 17 | SF may ban infant circumcisionSo why not delay the procedure until the patient can choose whether he wants to have it or not? | /r/MensRights | 23/02/11 04:50 PM |
| – | SF may ban infant circumcisionIf it's so beneficial, why not let people choose whether they want to do it or not? If a consenting adult wants someone to cut off their foreskin, it should be their choice and nobody else's. | /r/MensRights | 23/02/11 04:48 PM |
| 8 | Class action lawsuit to sue for and hopefully stop circumcision.I agree that circumcision should not be illegal per se - there are adults who want it for various reasons and they should have the right to have a doctor perform the procedure on them. Also, there are cases in which circumcision is medically necessary. However, I do believe that the very specific case of performing circumcisions on children who are not given the chance to withhold their consent and have no medical need for the procedure whatsoever should not be legal.

| 1 | University kills computer science major but keeps womens studies.Only cs did not hold its own weight. They don't scrap profitable majors if they want to cut their budget, they cut the majors that are losing them money. WS is probably one of the most profitable majors because it's compareably cheap to run and attracts a lot of students. | /r/MensRights | 21/02/11 11:56 AM |
| 1 | So, a sample size of 41 men is the basis of 'rape culture'. Just read the abstract alone.If they had decided to go for a quantitative analysis with a sample like that I would have agreed, but qualitative analysis can produce relevant results with compareable small samples. I'm not a big fan of qualitative analysis because it has its problems, but you will never get a sample that is anywhere near the size you're asking for (there simply aren't enough people convicted of rape) so it's the best option in this case. | /r/MensRights | 20/02/11 06:37 PM |
| 39 | University kills computer science major but keeps womens studies.Universities are run like businesses nowadays - the reason some majors get cut/downsized is because they don't attract enough paying students and don't generate enough third-party funds, while others do.

| 4 | Renaming Victims as Accusers: Anti-Woman or Pro-Justice?Different crimes present themselves differently. If police finds someone who has been stabbed to death, calling them an "alleged victim" would be rather stupid, since this person was obviously the victim of someone. Using the word accuser would not be accurate either, since dead people can't accuse anyone. In this case, victimhood is established sufficiently before anything goes to trial.

| 2 | The Swiss and Their GunsSome might be concerned that forcing the men to lock up their guns in state-run armories might be a big step towards imposing the tyranny of a feminist socialist state. Honestly, Switzerland is not in imminent danger of being taken over by "feminist socialist tyranny" - we're talking about the country that didn't give women the right to vote until 1971 and declined them the right to vote in some regional elections until 1990. A country of feminist extremists indeed. And socialist? Switzerland ou… | /r/MensRights | 19/01/11 08:16 PM |
| 4 | Girls in Swim trunks and Men in skirts. -There it is again, women calling boys men. This should be considered child abuse, why do women think mens liberation should be based around turning boys into girls?I simply can not follow your train of thought here. How exactly would denying men the right to dress as they see fit make someone appear like a more sincere supprter of men's rights? This is not about making the majority of men wear something they don't want to, but giving the minority an option to choose. Sort of like a male feminist advocating a woman's right to grow a moustache or a beard. Doesn't seem insencere to me. Edit: Pushing something like that on children is a whole different matter.… | /r/MensRights | 18/01/11 11:26 AM |

Life's big lessons are coming early.I doubt they robbed a sperm bank, so it's sufficient if those boys don't play along.

The thing is, if you do want to describe yourself with the same term as these people and yet you don't want to be associated with them, yes, you do have the responsibility to take a stand by either publicly telling them how they don't speak for you or by abandoning the terminology altogether. Saying "she doesn't speak for us, so nothing she says can reflect negatively on feminism" won't work, since they will say the same thing ab… | /r/MensRights | 14/01/11 05:42 PM |

| 3 | A breakthrough? Police admit "domestic violence on men happens a lot"Of course they are less cooperative. They are led to believe that they can do no wrong by the portrayal of female-on-male violence in popular culture. A lot of them are probably completely oblivious as to why they have to justify themselves for "taking a stand", while male offenders know that what they did is unacceptable. | /r/MensRights | 14/01/11 01:58 PM |

The market was fine with it, it was just very small group of outraged individuals. While the designer defends the urinals as sensual art, a complaint led a McDonald’s outlet in The Netherlands to remove them in 2006.

| 0 | Sacked teacher who wrote racy novel about pupils appeals - TelegraphYeah, and I question that those are full blown "pedo fantasies" if it concerns people who can give consent to have sex (also, the book is fiction, meaning the thoughts of the characters don't necessarily have to be the exact thoughts of the author), and that a teacher of any gender should have to endure that much of a backlash. | /r/MensRights | 10/01/11 08:18 PM |
| 2 | Sacked teacher who wrote racy novel about pupils appeals - TelegraphIf it was a male teacher we'd be all over this, complaining how he didn't actually do anything and hardly deserves to get fired over this. Let's not be hypocrites here, though one can question if this book was wholly appropriate and in good taste, the whole incident is blown out of proportion. | /r/MensRights | 10/01/11 07:54 PM |
| 3 | Police caught female teacher having sex with a boy in carYeah, that's how fairness works and I agree with that. She knew the law and brought it on herself, after all, she could have waited for him to reach his official age of consent, which wouldn't have been that far away, since she's not his teacher. Still, I always hope that people don't get punished for breaking a law I don't agree with, so I hope she (and every other person in her position, male or female) gets a mild sentence. | /r/MensRights | 10/01/11 07:43 PM |
| -2 | Sacked teacher who wrote racy novel about pupils appeals - TelegraphYep, a woman wrote a fictional story about people who are able to have consensual sex, and in this story these people have sexual thoughts about her. The humanity! Let's burn her at a stick. Honestly, I don't think she deserves to be punished and neither would a male teacher deserve to be punished for doing something compareable. | /r/MensRights | 10/01/11 07:28 PM |
| 2 | Police caught female teacher having sex with a boy in carYeah, it's usually a silly law, but not when teachers who have too much influence over their pupils are involved. He can't break it off or stop giving his consent if he fears she might fail him and fuck up his education out of spite. Being taught by a jealous ex sounds like fun, too. Though in this case.... she is a dance teacher (how bad can failing dance class actually be?) and, more importantly, he isn't even in her class.

Would it be any better if she was 37 instead of 17 in this scenario? Not at all, but that hasn't been what anybody was talking about.

I agree that you're right about 16 and 17 year olds being able to give consent and aren't victimized by consentual sex, but this goes for boys and girls. However, a line has been drawn and now everybody has to deal with it - convicting men because "those are just the rules" and letting women of the hook because "the whole thing is stupid and we all know it" for the exact same thing doesn't work.

You go girl.It doesn't say "don't make women victims anymore".
