We now live in a time where women are treated as being as capable as men with regards to good things for them while any capability for bad such as abuse, rape, lies etc. has been suppressed."If you look at it even farther, men are just seen as disposable and not important. Ruining a young boys life for something like this, of course! He must be an evil deviant and needs to be put away forever to protect our precious women. A girl does something like this, well she's too important to society for serious action, somehow this is the boys fault and needs to be rectified on his end. Society just does not care about men, plain and simple. We have created a narrative where men are evil, ba… | /r/MensRights | 14/09/13 12:31 PM |

We now live in a time where women are treated as being as capable as men with regards to good things for them while any capability for bad such as abuse, rape, lies etc. has been suppressed."If you ever find yourself actually trying to talk to a "feminist" that's throwing patriarchy around like dues-ex-ma china there was a simple trick I learned that can help curb it. Simply ask the person to define their terms and then ask them how their original definition can someone cause what they're trying to say it causes. Honestly though those types of people can double think so hard that they won't understand why they are wrong but at least it'll help your peace of mind to know they're wron… | /r/MensRights | 14/09/13 12:20 PM |
| 2 | My university's student union is considering having gender exclusive elections. This is ridiculous.I don't understand how this was presented to make things look equal. The way the facts line up it seems pretty obvious as to what they were trying to push through, I know most people still don't acknowledge the lack of men in colleges but were those facts not presented? I guess what I'm saying is how was this presented so that the averages joe's though it was a good idea and somehow helpful toward equality and not just a way to spread someone's ideology? | /r/MensRights | 14/09/13 12:16 PM |
| 2 | My university's student union is considering having gender exclusive elections. This is ridiculous.oh god, you should've seen the face palm I did until I say the /s. My mind was already rearing up to rip that argument to shreds. Anyway the fact that this is presented as somehow "progressive" is beyond me. Ignorant people and ignorant ideologies, equality isn't even a factor here, it's all about faith in an ideology that's based on hate. It's sad that this didn't get laughed out of the room when it was presented. | /r/MensRights | 14/09/13 12:12 PM |
| 2 | An App to Help Women Avoid Street HarassmentErm, that's kind of a contradictory statement. Saying that it's not a bad thing "all things considered" and then considering the "unfounded implications" mean that it usually isn't a bad thing. Personally this just adds to the fear mongering that society puts towards all men. If this is a good thing than why isn't there a crime app for men, considering that a great deal more crime happens to men, it's obviously needed. Violent crime especially is aimed a men, women actually rarely have any probl… | /r/MensRights | 14/09/13 12:08 PM |

I think this post makes the mistake of singling out females as calling gamers losers because in reality it was most people that weren't part of the culture calling gamers losers. It was a "nerd" thing or whatever other label you want to give it and seen as very uncool.

| 6 | A brief history of women in video gamesI know there was one on the day z forum, or whatever the mod for arma 2 was. It's actually pretty dumb, but not surprising though I think it's more because someone was losing at a video game and no body likes that. Though it doesn't hurt that people feel like it's perfectly acceptable to use "feminism"(mainly because a lot of "feminist theory" is set up just for these situations.) to shame men, or actually people in general. | /r/MensRights | 14/09/13 11:33 AM |

We all know it's amazingly sad that DV is a pretty split statistic but yet we still feel the need to shame men and focus harder and harder on making women the victims which only makes it easier for female abusers to do what they do and much less likely for men to call and report that they are being abused.

So while yes in some places(can't say I agree with "most") women can be charged with rape, not where the author is and it rarely happens as far I know.

Though I imagine with genders reversed people would be way more interested in figuring things out, also I don't know why DNA evidence wasn't collected.

Post-Gazette Editorial Board: "It scarcely makes sense, but high school boys can play on girls' sports teams in Pennsylvania if the sport is offered only for girls."I think the problem is that there isn't enough players to be able to have multiple teams and thus a woman's rightful place on a team is being taken by a male player because during tryout's he's better and earns his place on the team. It's all good and well that women don't have to try out to be on men's teams and title XI guarantees them a spot but when the flip side is not only true but the male is a better player than most of the females then it's just unfair.

Women can not only do everything men can do but they can do it better(at least the president says so and most people agree) so ipso facto there is no way a male joining a females team would be in anyway unfair to anyone.

A trick to use if you're actually trying to debate a feminist(god knows why you would bother honestly) is to have them try and define the word "patriarchy" at the beginning.

Surprisingly some fathers do pay child support when they have the kids, it happens way more often than it should, though i wouldn't say this is the norm.

As in the father doesn't matter, and without a mother it's just not home. No matter what the father does, he doesn't matter. The mother brings home the money or spends all her time taking care of the children. Something makes the mother big enough to ignore the father.
