7	Cause anyone who fights for men's rights is automatically Republican. This made me want to switch parties Reddit is guilty of assuming everyone is American, and buys into a Two-Party state.	/r/MensRights	01/05/18 11:34 PM
2	Found this on a pole in my university. Seriously? Unis are covered in this pseudo-phylisophical graffiti. People who think they're being deep when really it's very shallow points that a million other students before them have splashed through. Whoever wrote this will likely look back on it in a few years time and cringe.	/r/MensRights	02/08/17 09:46 PM
1	Where fathers get the most paid parental leave, by country Tell that to the couple leaving university, up to their eyeballs in student debt, with a job offer on the table. Not offering statutory parental leave benefits nobody but the employer. To me, it's as basic as paid sick leave. It's a worker's rights issue, and they're not rights if they're not universal.	/r/MensRights	21/06/17 09:22 PM
2	Where fathers get the most paid parental leave, by country Millions of people don't have the luxury of being so selective with their employers. I'm glad you were in a situation to get a good deal for yourself.	/r/MensRights	21/06/17 09:15 PM
2	Where fathers get the most paid parental leave, by country I'm willing to bet this chart is referring to statutory paternity leave.	/r/MensRights	21/06/17 09:05 PM
2	Where fathers get the most paid parental leave, by country Then you've got a situation where people need to take sick leave and annual leave to spend the first few weeks of their child's life together, because their employer saw it as a potential drop in productivity to let them have the time off. You can't tell me that benefits anyone but the employer.	/r/MensRights	21/06/17 09:02 PM

3	Where fathers get the most paid parental leave, by country At a national level, the US doesn't have paid paternity leave. It might be in your state law though.	/r/MensRights	21/06/17 08:46 PM
8	Where fathers get the most paid parental leave, by country In my opinion, leaving things between employer and employee opens the door to massive exploitation and only benefits the employer. It will mean a good number of people get 0 weeks paternity leave. Equal statutory maternity and paternity leave also eliminates the incentive for employers to potentially favour men over women based on lost-productivity-through-pregnacy fears.	/r/MensRights	21/06/17 08:44 PM
3	How legal is this? "looking for female staff to hire" in the UK It's against the law in England and Wales under the Equality Act 2010. Although that very law also has a section in it about "Positive action", so they'd maybe be staffed mostly by men. In that case, it's strangely legal.	/r/MensRights	20/06/17 03:39 PM
26	Feminist politician Emily Thornberry attempts to highlight a politician's "all male team" rather than debate actual policy - it backfires wonderfully Hiding her embarrassment	/r/PussyPassDenied	22/07/16 09:04 AM
3	Verbally abusive bitch realises how wrong she is when she says "You won't do nothing so shut the fuck up!" Teacher here. It's totally true that you can't really do anything to restrain someone who's going mental like this, as they can easily claim assault and cause you a whole load of bother. Some kids are wise to this and will accuse you of everything when they are in trouble. It's quite scary actually. So we always make sure that, when dealing with heated situations like this, there is always at least one witness in the room with us at all times. If there are professional witnesses to the whole thi…	/r/PussyPassDenied	08/02/16 08:56 AM
-2	Girl won't leave classroom when asked by the teacher, then resists arrest. This is an absolutely ridiculous, and probably illegal, way to treat someone if it's just because they won't leave the class. Calm the fuck down America!	/r/PussyPassDenied	01/11/15 12:21 PM
1	Based Milo shutting down another pro-fat, feminist blogger. There are people who look like these mannequins, therefore they are realistic body shapes. By going on Sky News and blasting these shops for not putting "real" body shapes in their shop windows, demanding that they look more "human" (i.e. like her), this woman is being incredibly nasty and de-humanising these people who are naturally thin. How does she think this makes these people feel about their bodies and their self-esteem?	/r/PussyPassDenied	10/08/15 12:47 PM
1	Based Milo shutting down another pro-fat, feminist blogger. "When you're losing an argument it's easy to put me in a box where I'm a militant feminist" Puts the other guy in a box where he's a militant soldier of "the patriarchy" in the very same breath.	/r/PussyPassDenied	10/08/15 12:43 PM
1	On the same day Scotland was pandering to women prisoners, it was tightening the noose on male prisoners I am a lefty but I hardly want to support a party that like its England version is openly misandrinist. I mean they want to give women "community" sentences due to a "women's needs" but are happy to throw a man into some incredibly notorious jails for the same crime. You say "they", but the Justice Secretary can operate without party support. Like McAskill releasing al-Megrahi. Er this isn't Daily Mail material, since my relative's business had its window smashed in and SNP YES graffitti painted…	/r/MensRights	25/06/15 01:08 PM
4	On the same day Scotland was pandering to women prisoners, it was tightening the noose on male prisoners They are the only people with any meaningful support who actually bother to try and be remotely left-wing. But my actual favoured party are the Scottish Greens. The SNP have some ideas which I don't totally back, and that's fine, since not everyone is going to agree on everything at all times, nor should they. Example would be their refusal to outright condemn fracking to the bin permanently in Scotland, rather than just holding off for a while. The idea of the SNP having an "incredibly bigoted …	/r/MensRights	24/06/15 09:12 PM
0	On the same day Scotland was pandering to women prisoners, it was tightening the noose on male prisoners As much as I like the SNP, this is really a terrible thing for the justice secretary to even attempt.	/r/MensRights	24/06/15 05:15 PM
1	Any socialists or leftists here? Yes and Yes. I find that a lot of the ideologies promoted by a great number of the most vocal feminists are actually quite similar to a lot of the right wing points-of-view I'm seeing in the UK, at least. A selected social class (women, white people, "British" people) should be afforded rights over others (men, non-white people, immigrants). Those "others" (men, Muslims) are to be held accountable for the actions of one (rapists, terrorists) and each member needs to apologise on behalf of the co…	/r/MensRights	01/06/15 06:37 PM
7	Made an image for you guys, use it as much as you want The word "men" is used as a slur by a lot of these people. They almost spit out the word with the same bile as racists do when they use...well...that word.	/r/MensRights	01/06/15 09:29 AM
3	Serious question about education I'm a teacher in Scotland, and the education system we have over here has just undergone a major upheaval. The new system takes the "whole child" approach and seeks to develop the learner as a valuable member of society and a generally happy individual, instead of just getting them qualifications and into a job. This can only be a good thing in my opinion, since it encourages educators to see learners as individuals rather than a collective whole, be that as a class or a year group etc. The way …	/r/MensRights	30/05/15 11:25 AM
3	Ejecting in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1... Did they really make an announcement to tell the guy to stop recording? I couldn't really make it out.	/r/PussyPassDenied	01/04/15 01:17 PM
2	Men sexualized in media and it's effects? I think it's just easier for the media to write the story with the angle that it's women who are affected, since people are more ready to accept the idea of a vulnerable woman than a vulnerable man. I think most people have a healthy attitude towards these kinds of things, but "Everything's Fine" isn't a headline that'll line media moguls pockets lmao	/r/MensRights	21/05/14 04:08 PM
2	Men sexualized in media and it's effects? if by that you mean, the perfect Photoshop version of a man we see in advertising etc then I'd be lying if I said I hadn't felt bad for not looking like THAT. But I wouldn't say it's a massive driving force in my life. I know what the ad agencies are doing, or trying to get me to do, by showing these ads, so like most people I'm able to see through it and get on with a mostly happy life.	/r/MensRights	20/05/14 08:19 AM
0	Katie Hopkins on BBCQT - Women Can't 'Handle' Equality. Reality served cold. Hopkins is a horrible person who will say anything she possibly can that will cause an outrage and keep people hatewatching her stuff. After a tragic helicopter crash in Glasgow, Scotland she tweeted that it was typical of Scots to do anything to get out of working till pension age...that's the kind of wretch we're dealing with here.	/r/MensRights	16/05/14 08:19 AM
