| 8 | Look at the fantastic doodle that is in use by google on International Mens Day as oppose to International Womans Daythe 89% female perpetrators are in the context of juvenile facilities for example. I would guess that the high number is largely because the staff there is more likely to be female. No. Less than half the staff are female yet they make up 90% of the perpetrators. Nine in 10 of those who reported being victimized were males reporting incidents with female staff. Women, meanwhile, typically make up less than half of a juvenile facility’s staff. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2014/09/woodland-… | /r/MensRights | 19/11/20 05:25 PM |
| 2 | Is it just me that thinks this applies more to men than it does women? When was the last time a woman accused someone of rape and harassed and violently attacked for it?Do you have a link to the transcript for the case? | /r/MensRights | 07/02/19 05:07 PM |
| -4 | Just a reminder to #dontbethatgirl“rape is the most underreported crime” Did you even read your link? Your link cites another source: http://http://bjs.ojp.usdoj.gov/content/pub/pdf/rsarp00.pd Which is a broken link. So, you actually have no source at all.

| 70 | [Last update] I saved 15% or more on car insurance by switching my gender!This is definitely worth it in terms of the savings. However, it might have some other negative effects. Does it also change the gender on your passport? I assume they don't allow you to have different genders on your driver's licence versus passport. So, if your passport says you're female, and you're obviously a guy, then that will cause problems with you if you go to any country that isn't stupid enough to allow someone to self-declare their own gender with zero proof whatsoever. | /r/MensRights | 29/04/18 05:38 PM |
| 12 | 71% of UK adults mistakenly think the gender pay gap is “the difference in pay between men and women doing the same job” | Roll up your sleeves, boys - we have our work cut out.No, that just means you are one of the many ignorant people who believe a lie. The gender pay gap refers to the fact that women as a group earn less than men as a group. But, that is because women work less hours, choose easier but lower paying jobs, are more likely to quit work to raise kids, etc. | /r/MensRights | 08/04/18 04:58 PM |
| 3 | Woman, 18, accused of raping man at knifepoint gets probation.She didn't get probation. She already spent over 300 days in jail. Borrello also ordered 313 days in jail with credit for 313 days served. Smith will spend the next year on GPS tether. Granted, less than a year in jail is a light sentence for raping someone at knife point. But it's better than probation. | /r/MensRights | 20/03/18 03:14 AM |
| 1 | Being dragged back into court as my son's mother once again uses him as a weapon to try to punish me. Now she wants custody completely taken away from me.Imagine a society where men are asked what they'd prefer and then we respected their decision - so called "deadbeat dads" would cease to exist and all fathers would be like the OP. Nope, there would still be deadbeat dads. Men who agreed to have kids and then later changed their mind and bailed. There would just be just far less of them - and what was left would actually be deadbeat dads, as opposed to now when it's men who were forced to pay for kids they never wanted. | /r/MensRights | 20/03/18 03:06 AM |

You said "It was literally the same link you just editorialized your title.". In fact, it was not even from the same website / media organization, and thus in no way "literally the same link". | /r/MensRights | 18/03/18 02:36 AM |

People live in specific regions. Yes, women in Middle Eastern countries face discrimination and have less legal rights than men. Women in Norway do not.

But most of the users are in Western Anglo countries, which is why that's what we are talking about. And which is why it is dishonest for you to talk about African countries etc. Interesting article.

Burden of proof is on you if you disagree. If you think that feminists talk about the good in masculinity, then the burden of proof is on you to show that.

Canadian women got the right to vote in 1918 (although Asians and First Nations, men and women, couldn't vote). http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/suffrage/ Besides, 1920 is still pretty fucking late so my point still stands.

It's mainstream feminism that pushed the Duluth Model, that tried to suppress evidence that half of DV is committed by women, that continues to push for gendered DV narratives and media campaigns, etc. It's mainstream feminists like National Organization of Women that continue to fight against custody reform. etc. | /r/MensRights | 10/03/18 05:29 PM |

If not, say you are honored, but must decline, and give the reason."Half the panel should be half female with your argument. That assumes that the number of qualified people were half female. Depending on the industry, that is far from true - some industries could be male-dominated where 80% of the qualified people were male. | /r/MensRights | 04/02/18 11:13 PM |

On the other hand, suppose you accuse someone of assault or rape and you're lying, but you were wrongly believed. Well, that's quite a different story, as you can see.

No, it's not obvious at all. You may think so, but it's clear from your comments that you are biased and stupid. Here, a member of the MRA assaulted me. So MRA's have hurt me. You gonna believe me? I literally just explained why we shouldn't believe such claims unquestioningly. Accusations like that are a serious matter and need to be investigated. | /r/MensRights | 03/02/18 03:07 AM |

Sure, if you said that you saw a UFO appear and aliens came out to greet you, we'd need some proof. But if you said that you saw someone trip and drop his sandwich while walking down the street, why exactly would we require proof? Even if you're lying, it wouldn't even matter.

How is that weird? If a woman - or man - says they were raped, you better believe that they need to be questioned and investigated. You can't just arrest someone as a rapist without proof (well it happens all the time actually, but it's wrong when it does). On the other hand, if someone say… | /r/MensRights | 03/02/18 02:21 AM |

If a vegan diet was so good at lowering blood pressure, why is the DASH diet suggested instead of a vegan diet? Because it has calcium, one of the many nutrients that vegan diets are missing. Where do vegans get their B12? From a lab... because vegan diets can't sustain human life. You're not just a fool, but dishonest.

If women as a whole (regardless of race) benefited from AA, and most American women are white, then obviously more white women would have benefited from AA than non-white women. That is just an obvious point.

| 1 | Affirmative actionYes, and? You don't seem to realize that your link doesn't actually prove that white women benefit more from AA than blacks or hispanics. Again, no one cares whether more white women benefited than non-whites. The answer is obvious - since there are more white people in America than non-white, there will be more whites who benefit than non-whites. The only question is, who gets more benefit from AA, an individual white woman or a black/hispanic? And the answer is obvious. E.g. http://www.newswee… | /r/MensRights | 20/01/18 02:50 AM |
| -2 | Affirmative actionNo. People just lie and claim that affirmative action benefits white women the most. In fact, blacks and hispanics get the most benefit under AA. Your article does not link a single fact or piece of evidence to show that white women benefit the most. Rather, it just uses dishonest arguments by saying that the majority of beneficiaries of AA were white women. No shit, because there are far more white people than blacks or hispanics in America.

Most white men are not Nazis, therefore white men cannot be held responsible for the actions of other Nazis, unless they are actually are a Nazi.

No, it's not. You didn't even read the source. 5-8% is the ones that are determined quite sure to be false. Which does not include the large percentage of claims that are unknown whether true or false. Which means, the 5-8% is the lower bound.

That is consistent with the UK CPS and another major study which found 1.5% and 1.3% provably or proved false. No, it is more like 5-8%, not 2%.

Husband works full-time, wife is/was the stay-at-home parent of a 6 year old. The wife doesn't want more kids, and doesn't want to work. The husband wants the wife to get a job, which is reasonable.

"I don't think the OP is being unreasonable for wanting her husband to work. Just as a husband is not unreasonable for wanting his wife to work (if their kid was now in school)."

| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughLike what, wearing protective gear? I'm fine with that.

| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughI have no issue with safety regulations. For instance, I see taking away the right for truck drivers to drive on the job for indefinite periods of time as an acceptable trade-off for preventing crashes (that could easily harm other people).

| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughThere are no reasonable precautions a person can take to eliminate (or even vastly reduce) the risk of spilling a drink in the car Sure there are. Like, don't put a drink on your lap and take the lid off (which is what happened to the woman who used). Therefore, drinks served to people in cars must be safe to spill. ..... By this logic, hot drinks should be outlawed. What the fuck is wrong with you people? | /r/MensRights | 13/10/17 03:22 PM |
| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughNo, they don't, not without telling their customers. And customers know the drink is hot. They served her something she was supposed to drink that was so unreasonably hot that it completely mutilated her. Yeah...because she spilled the whole cup of it on herself.

| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughBy that logic, they shouldn't have been allowed to serve coffee at that temperature since it was unsafe.

| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughIf such a cup was practical to use, McDonald's would use it.

| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughMcDonald's actually doesn't have the right. Then they should. McDonald's owes its customers a duty not to serve unreasonably dangerous food items. Sure.

| 2 | That “male privilege” thoughso the right to sell near boiling coffee is more important than regularly giving people severe burns and possibly kill them McDonald's isn't giving anyone burns. They are burning themselves. Second, you mean "more important than not giving". Since if they didn't sell coffee, then no one would get any burns from it. And yes, they should have that right. Just like the right to sell guns or chainsaws is more important than not giving people the ability to shoot or slice themselves. | /r/MensRights | 13/10/17 04:36 AM |
| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughAgreed, healthcare should be more accessible. I think it's terrible how an accident in America, even if it doesn't cripple you physically, could/does cripple you financially. That's not the case in Canada, England, etc. As for lowballing, they shouldn't have had to pay at all. If they wanted to pay as an act of generosity, then fine. But forced to pay? No. If I sell a gun and someone shoots themselves with it by accident, I shouldn't be forced to pay so long as the gun itself had no issues. | /r/MensRights | 13/10/17 03:53 AM |
| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughI have no issue with being forced to put on a warning label. The label isn't incorrect, and warning people (even if redundant) isn't a bad thing.

| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughThe law and reality are often unrelated to each other. By law, men must be treated equally to women when it comes to the legal system, particularly when it comes to sentencing. In reality, they aren't.

| 2 | That “male privilege” thoughSure, accidents happen, and they can be tragic. Although in the lawsuit case, it was indeed stupidity - she had put the cup in her lap while sitting in a car. That doesn't make it ok to take away rights. It is negligent if something unnecessarily dangerous is served to customers, especially when the company knew it injured people in the past. Except no, it's not "unnecessarily dangerous". It's a hot drink, and hence inherently dangerous. They didn't add unnecessary danger by putting some poison … | /r/MensRights | 13/10/17 03:17 AM |
| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughThe warning sign of course makes no difference to safety. If the cups were in fact unsafe and prone to spilling, then McDonald's would be in the wrong. But I don't think that was the argument that was made. | /r/MensRights | 13/10/17 03:06 AM |
| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughIf the warning signs are something the company is supposed to do, and they don't do it, that is negligence. No, it's not. The warning signs don't change anything in reality. It'd be one thing if people didn't know the coffee was hot, and the signs were needed to inform people. But that's not the case. Like yourself, I'm sure McDonald's thought they were better than everyone, and that all their customers were dumb and it's their own fault if they burn themselves, but it's also why they lost.

| 1 | That “male privilege” thoughThere's nothing immoral about selling a harmful or poisonous liquid to people, so long as there is no deception and people are aware that the water you are selling has harmful materials in it.

| 2 | That “male privilege” thoughDon't give me these stupid arguments. It's wrong for people to pollute or dump chemicals into public drinking water because they don't own that water.

They only need to say they served paperwork. There's no requirement that the paperwork actually go to the man. Just look at the case of Carnell Alexander. He was forced to pay child support for a kid he did not even know about. The government claimed that they served him with paperwork. The problem? He was in jail at the time they claim they served him, and the supposed location was not the jail.

And of course, the percentages of men that commit suicide is far higher than the percentage of women that commit suicide (relative to each other).

Not one person has ever provided a source - because no such source exists (to my knowledge).

That sentence no longer appears to be in there. There is one part where she says something like "if even a Nazi prisoner can reclaim their identity, then a housewife can too" or some such.

Because even if the form was working as intended, and no spamming had occurred, then any genuine claim of rape would have resulted in the rapist being called down to the Dean's Office and warned/interrogated.

I saw the news articles in which it says they were spammed with hundreds of reports, of being raped by fictional characters, accusing the staff of the Dean's Office (the form is run by the Dean's Office), etc. Those reports are non-harmful - and the goal of shutting down the online form is quite a laudable one. I am actually quite disgusted by the number of people who are defending… | /r/MensRights | 20/12/13 02:06 AM |
| 1 | Wait, this isn't right...There is nothing contradictory about spamming false reports on an anonymous online form intended to be used to report people as rapists, with the goal of said spamming being to get the form shut down. It is a fairly logical action for the intended goal. | /r/MensRights | 19/12/13 06:27 AM |

You edited the screenshots linked in your above comment, and took out the one you had originally linked about reporting members of the Dean's Office, since it was inconvenient to your dishonest argument: http://i.imgur.com/0chec5F.jpg The purpose of the form is to allow rape victims to report the incidents.

| 2 | For the most part I like rationalWiki, but their page for mens rights is just a disgusting strawman attack trying to paint it as a women-hate movement (obviously written by an extreme feminist). Can we fix this?Your point wasn't complex, it was simple: The current "let's ruin an anonymous reporting form with false rape claims" plan is also doing a really fantastic job of showing how obviously only someone really dumb could come to the conclusion that you guys might hate women You seem to be saying that spamming an anonymous rape report form with false complaints (in order to try to shut it down) is evidence of hatred of women. Right? And the other guy you were replying to said, how exactly is spamming … | /r/MensRights | 19/12/13 04:51 AM |
| 4 | Why I need Mens Rights:Because of feminism, I spent most of my life believing that staying home to mother my child and take care of the household is "oppressive" and should never be something that I want for myself. Sadly, feminists don't seem to own how their movement has caused some very real harm to women. I am sorry you felt that way, but luckily it's not a problem for you anymore. | /r/MensRights | 19/12/13 04:48 AM |
| 1 | Should false rape accusers be sued?By Roxanne JonesAre you trying to tell me that people would think that reporting every member of the Deans Office as a rapist, on an online form with reports that are overseen by members of the Deans Office, would result in said members being punished or disciplined in any way? Is that really what you are trying to say? Because that is quite ridiculous. Furthermore, your are intentionally misrepresenting what the forms purpose actually is. No I am not.

| 1 | Should false rape accusers be sued?By Roxanne JonesIn the best case scenario, a man (and I do mean men, since we known women are not punished for rape) who is anonymously accused would be ordered to the Dean's office, informed that they may have sexually assaulted someone, and told to watch their behaviour in the future. That would be quite upsetting, intimidating, and worrisome - in other words, harmful - to someone who has been falsely accused. And that's the best case. Worst case: men who are anonymously accused are noted down on a quasi-sex … | /r/MensRights | 19/12/13 04:08 AM |
| 1 | Should false rape accusers be sued?By Roxanne JonesReporting every member of the Deans Office is neither immoral, nor harmful. The intent of the action is to shut down the system, not to actually harm the members. And the result of the action does not create harm, since the employee(s) of the Deans Office who view such reports would obviously see that all members had been reported, and just as obviously not punish themselves. So therefore that means it is not immoral nor harmful with reporting all members of the Deans Office, since the intent is… | /r/MensRights | 19/12/13 03:55 AM |

| 0 | Should false rape accusers be sued?By Roxanne JonesDisabling an online form meant to anonymously report people as rapists, which can and will be used to harm people, is quite moral and helpful.

| 1 | Should false rape accusers be sued?By Roxanne JonesFilling out fake claims on an anonymous online form meant to be used to report people as rapists, in order to get that form shut down, is not harmful nor immoral. Actually making false accusations against specific people with the intention to harm them, is quite harmful and immoral. Do you get the difference? | /r/MensRights | 18/12/13 05:19 AM |
| 8 | "Why did sillymod remove the Occidental College post?" Let me tell you why.Didn't it say that the person named as a rapist will get hauled in to the office and interrogated? That is quite wrong and harmful. | /r/MensRights | 18/12/13 03:34 AM |
| 7 | "Why did sillymod remove the Occidental College post?" Let me tell you why.Actually, your logic is flawed. It's true that if no one had publicized the anonymous rape claim form, then it would not have been spammed with false accusations. But...it still would have been used to make individual cases (albeit relatively few in number) of anonymous false accusations by people local to the college. So, since the goal was to shut down this method of making individual cases of false accusation, then spamming it with false/nonsensical accusations was not contradictory. | /r/MensRights | 18/12/13 03:25 AM |

| 13 | Title 9: My university cut men's baseball and soccer so spending on men and women's sports are equal..... The reason being more men than women are interested in sports. Do you even know what Title IX is? It means that they have to give proportional money to women in sports according to the students, e.g. if 55% of students are women, they must get 55% of the money. But wait - only 30% of the athletes are women? So then the 70% of male athletes are only getting 45% of the money - which means they don't have enough. So what do they do? Too bad, fuck the male athletes. | /r/MensRights | 15/12/13 05:42 PM |
