| 2 | So wait. Where the hell are the non-white guys?Unfortunately a sample of 600 (I thought there was only 400 before the brigade on the recent survey) for a population of almost 90,000 has a very large margin of error, even before getting into things like self-selection and the fact that reddit's population is not representative of the overall population of the world. | /r/MensRights | 16/04/14 08:58 AM |

| 1 | /r/Mensrights I need your help! My sexist (ex) boss has just made a new rule banning ALL MALES from being hired SIMPLY FOR BEING MALES.How the hell is it "sexist" to avoid Subways which have a predominantly male workforce? Avoiding eating somewhere just because someone of a specific gender works there (regardless of what gender it is) is sexist. Similarly, not eating somewhere because someone with a certain skin colour works there is racist (as /u/mirazatha pointed out). And not eating somewhere because someone of a certain age works there is ageist. etc. TL;DR, deciding not to eat somewhere simply because people who fit into a… | /r/MensRights | 10/04/14 12:06 AM |
| 4 | /r/Mensrights I need your help! My sexist (ex) boss has just made a new rule banning ALL MALES from being hired SIMPLY FOR BEING MALES.I don't see the problem here. A lot of people I know specifically avoid going to Subways where men work. Who wants that? Well, for one /u/EmperorYogi2Point0, hiring only a specific gender is sexist and illegal (unless being that gender is somehow a bona fide requirement for said job). Secondly, avoiding eating somewhere just because people that fit into a specific demographic work there is also discriminatory, and in this case sexist. | /r/MensRights | 09/04/14 10:03 AM |

If she pay raises only the lazy, fires or forces quits from the workers that she requires to do all the hard work, and hires from a sample size that has been effectively cut in half, what do you think will happen when her own boss from Subway starts seeing profits and productivity falling?

| 4 | Found this on r/short... another double standard.It's because when you comment on something that someone has control over and has failed to change (such as their weight), you are commenting on their personality. If you comment on something that someone can't change (such as their height), then you are commenting on things that are out of their control. It's not right, but that's what causes the different reactions. | /r/MensRights | 28/03/14 02:41 AM |

| 27 | Is there a site which focuses on men's issues but is friendly toward feminism?My understanding of feminism is different than yours it would seem. Some feminist may be assholes but feminism as a movement isn't necessarily antimen. That is exactly the problem at hand. Generally the MRM does not have a problem with what the average person who identifies as a feminist believes in. What MRAs have a problem with is that it is radical feminists (the "antimen" "assholes") leading the debate, and the silent majority is lending them support by identifying under their name. | /r/MensRights | 03/02/13 12:06 AM |

I used PUA lingo when I was learning this stuff, but now that I have more experience I've moved And that is why people are calling him a hypocrite and a white knight (especially the 2nd part where he assumed that because OP does one thing a certain way that he doesn't like, OP must be creepy overall). | /r/seduction | 19/01/13 09:36 PM |

Apparently 20% of all women have been or will be raped in the United States.According to the 2010 study the percentage of male victims that were willing to admit to being raped is slightly higher than the same figure for women (excluding people in prison).

| 5 | Ideal College Men's CenterI identify as a pickup artist and a social artist, and I can say that this would be a BAD IDEA. I'll repeat that; PUA workshops in a men's centre would be a BAD IDEA. First things first, pickup has very little to do with men's rights beyond the fact that the majority of people involved are male. Secondly, that would bring a whole new level of attacks against the men's centre in question. People view pickup as being very misogynistic, and are QUITE outspoken against it (for numerous reasons).

Because they do have that right? They can give the child up for adoption without the father's consent. They can give the child to the father and usually will not be asked to pay for child support.

| 7 | Two bathrooms, one for one gender, one for both. Both single-person. Unfair?I know it seems like it's obvious sarcasm, but you really should put a </sarcasm> tag in when you're posting something like that in this subreddit. (Poe's law is way too strong here) Overall, this subreddit really needs to cut down on the sarcasm (not get rid of it, just cut down on it). It's just not constructive. | /r/MensRights | 20/08/12 11:51 PM |

| 1 | The Gender Pay Gap is a Complete Myth - CBS NewsI'm not saying it's easier to become an accountant, but it is easier to be an accountant. No risk of death or dismemberment, much longer lifespan, cushy desk, and so on. Oh, of course, but you can say the same thing about being the prime minister.

| 1 | The Gender Pay Gap is a Complete Myth - CBS NewsI think you're vastly underestimating the level of skill and knowledge that is needed to become an accountant (especially if you're in a role similar to that of a CA in Canada). In order to become a CA in Canada you need 4 years of university taking a specific degree with specific courses at one of a short list of universities, and then you have to get hired at and work at an accounting company for 3 years.

In fact, basically every law that should be on a federal scale, but hasn't been explicitly granted to the federal government is a mess. I mean, it varies greatly from state to state (not just where the line is drawn, but what people under the line are allowed to do and whether or not there are close in age exemptions), and some courts in the U.S. have stra… | /r/MensRights | 29/07/12 07:34 AM |
| 8 | An Open Letter to the r/MensRights Community from a "Radical" Feminist (please read, not a "wow you guys are awful and bad!!!)Very true. Someone that is 17 years and 364 days old does not need protection from having consensual sex with someone who is 18 years and 0 days old, but some boy who is 10 may need it from some priest who is 50. So where do you draw the line? A hard line at 18 is suboptimal for obvious reasons. I say, go with a graduated system like Canada has (although Canada's system is also suboptimal, it is closer to being optimal).

If you go to the gym every night, you're not giving your body enough time to rest (even single body part isolation only really gets up to 5 day splits), and you won't be able to push yourself hard enough to see any progress. Even bodyweight programs like C25K only recommend working out (or rather running in C25K's case) 3 times a week. | /r/MensRights | 23/07/12 05:04 PM |

| 5 | You... you hit a girl!Actually, muscle mass kinda does equal physical strength. The reason why a guy will on average be stronger than a girl with the same weight and height is because the amount of essential fat on a girls body will be a higher percentage of her weight. The range that is considered "professional athlete" or "body builder" for guys (4%-11%) would result in death for girls. Conversely, 25% body fat percentage is considered obese for guys, but on the low end of average for girls. | /r/MensRights | 05/07/12 07:36 PM |
