| 5 | Delivery Driver Films Unconscious Naked Customer to Accuse Him of Harassment: She Gets Arrested InsteadWhat forced her to open the door? What forced her to enter? Who was holding her at gunpoint to pull her phone out? What entity threatened her into pressing record? Did he physically force her, while unconscious, to make such a heinous face, too? You're full of shit. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 02/12/25 02:29 PM |
| 1 | Toxic "girl's girl" cultureWomen have told me they’d be uncomfortable ever seeing me in a relationship, and could never assume I wasn’t being assaulted in some way. Why? Because I’m severely physically disabled. They can’t see anyone beside me as a romantic option, let alone sexual. A man like me is only worthy of a caregiver, not love. And because I’m not very tall or big due to my disability, obviously any man attracted to me must be a predator, or only dating me to pretend I’m a child. Yes, people have said these thing… | /r/MensRights | 09/11/25 01:52 PM |
| 2 | Are women covering up each others wrongdoing?Yes, they are. If you have family with younger daughters in your life, ask or look carefully at school if she’s been called a “tattletale” or a bad friend for exposing something wrong another girl classmate did. Ask if she’s been praised for doing the same to boy classmates. | /r/MensRights | 06/11/25 02:33 AM |
| 1 | Why is racism the line most misandrists won't cross?Acceptable vs unacceptable biases in the culture they’re in- in these discussions, they’re typically middle class or somewhat well to do, able bodied white women. Hating men gets a pass with the plausible deniability that, “it’s just girl talk, we’re all fed up,” but as there is no obvious comparison with racial dynamics from a white perspective, racism wouldn’t get a similar “pass.” You’ll often see it too if you ask them about disabled men, and see how quickly they backtrack. Find any TikTok m… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 08/09/24 10:47 AM |
| 11 | Moms think more about household chores − and this cognitive burden hurts their mental healthCompletely agree, but it isn’t as highly gendered an issue as the article makes it out to be. Your parents’ situation happens in reverse frequently too. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/09/24 05:58 AM |
| 6 | Moms think more about household chores − and this cognitive burden hurts their mental healthI live in an apartment with my sister currently, and just the other day we had a long talk about the housework, mental load, and how I’m overwhelmed from having basically all of the latter. I’m disabled to the point where most tasks are out of the question for me, and the work I can do around the house is only after copious substances to ignore the pain and fatigue. Her mental health is to the point where she won’t remember a task needs to be done unless I tell her for some of the harder things.… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/09/24 05:57 AM |
| 34 | First time I've seen a feminist defend men from another feministAnd once again, they’re so, so close. It isn’t patriarchy, it’s the rich. It’s not powerful men, it’s powerful people. The older I get the more I understand the class war. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 12/08/24 01:41 PM |
| 2 | Conservative women believe that cis men are obligated to serve them by default.There’s a stereotype in some younger queer spaces that millennials will be on the surface, trans welcoming, but beneath it they'll offhandedly say something that makes you realize they don’t think non-binary people are real, or something intersexist, that makes you realize you might not exactly be on the same page. Kind of like millennials do with boomers about some issues. It’s not universal for any generation. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 09/08/24 07:00 PM |
| -1 | Conservative women believe that cis men are obligated to serve them by default.It’s a weird paradox they have, isn’t it? They’re convinced up and down they’re a “good” conservative for being progressive. Meanwhile their most progressive view is that weed should carry a lighter sentence, and they fully support criminalizing gay marriage. Bonkers stuff! | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 09/08/24 12:48 PM |
| 42 | Industries "dominated" by women, other industries "disproportionately performed" by men.It’s the prestige of having the title while not wanting to do the actual labor. Plus HR is usually pulling a lot of strings, has a lot of power when it comes to the average worker. Women who are toxic love that power rush. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 09/08/24 12:46 PM |
| 12 | Is it time to talk about Drew Afuolo yet?Where’s that thing of… you insult someone you hate, they’ll never hear it- who will hear it is your friend who’s insecure about the same physical trait. The misogynist on TikTok you stitch will never feel bad about himself when you point out he’s balding, but your friend struggling with losing his hair young will. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/08/24 07:53 PM |
| 17 | "We have allowed the demonisation and dehumanisation of male refugees. They are victims too"Coming from Russia, there’s basically no difference between soldier and civilian for young men- the draft is swift and brutal. Young men endanger their lives to get out of it, breaking your own leg isn’t uncommon. We’ve lost basically an entire generation and then some, because the age limits were raised. It’s terrifying and I can’t wait for this crisis to be over, so we can settle our losses instead of holding our teeth for more. Especially with other countries shooting at refugees crossing now… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/08/24 07:51 PM |
| 2 | Hey guys! Feminist here! I was gonna ask for help on something!Since she seems so focused on white men in particular, if that leads to backtracking you could also ask, “would you say the same thing about a man of color?” Or, “would you say it to his face?” | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/08/24 07:48 PM |
| 2 | I fully, 100%, believe in a woman's right to choose. I also believe in a man's right to choose. Why is this a crazy take?I don’t believe a non-carrying person should be able to determine if the pregnancy continues, but they should be able to fully decide to cut all legal, social, and financial ties. Hand with that, we also need to cut the stigma about non-carrying parents who decide not to stay. It’s not always an evil act, baby traps exist. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 30/07/24 02:02 PM |
| 1 | Transitioning to male opened my eyesHey, someone else! I’ve never met someone else who experienced this seemingly magical improvement in health after starting testosterone, and the doctors I’ve seen haven’t been able to tell me anything useful either. But while I could afford to be taking it, my lifelong anemia went away, my spinal injury pain and tremors reduced as did my muscle pain, I got sick less, and my delusions reduced at least by half. Now that I’ve been off it for a long time, I wondered if it was a coincidence or I made… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 30/07/24 11:21 AM |
| 22 | The way feminism wants men to act/feel about gender issues feels very religious/catholic to meThe constant self flagellation required, too. To be accepted in those spaces as a man you must agree with the idea that everything you do is secretly malicious, that you are a flawed and evil creature deserving of punishment. You must smile and nod at violent threats towards your person. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 30/07/24 11:07 AM |

My disability is still worsening, and it was already bad enough months ago to justify getting me a careworker or putting me in a home, or something like that. But instead I clean the house for my adoptive sister. And make sure she’s okay. And plan when I ask for help around her schedule. She moved in with me under the premise she’d be helping me until she could help me afford care- that stopped pretty quick. I pay the rent myself, I pay for groceries, I pay our gas and electric… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 17/07/24 08:55 AM |
| 30 | Has something drastic happened to Menslib?I’ve noticed it too and it’s why my participation in the sub heavily dropped off, especially the backlash you get just for pointing it out. Like, we have left wing in the title. I didn’t even stay in the discord for a full day, couldn’t stomach the reactionary toxicity- I thought we’re supposed to be against that kind of stuff, not stooping down to it. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 17/07/24 08:50 AM |
| 21 | Victim blaming male suicideThis is what I think is the answer. Women are more likely to attempt suicide in general, but are also more likely to attempt the kind of suicide where one “wants to be stopped.” A “cry for help” attempt. Men are more likely to commit an attempt they wholly and completely intend on following through on. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 17/07/24 08:44 AM |

| 4 | SA, SH and DV Story ThreadEvery time I’ve been in a court has been an eye opening and terrifying experience. The legal system does not view us the same- they view us as chattel, not real people like they see women. I’ve watched bailiffs loosen or even remove the cuffs of women standing accused of violent crimes, and tightening the cuffs to pain on a man standing for petty theft. Similar happens in interrogations. I’m glad you’re away from that unsafe environment, and that you didn’t go through even more trauma at the han… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 14/07/24 11:56 PM |

She was personally mentored by the woman who invented the Duluth model. She’s become a flying monkey, if you’re familiar with narcissist terms, for the current leaders of the cult. I completely escaped- I have no intentions to lead it or otherwise, I should have mentioned that. The therapist usually testifies in favor of what she calls battered women. Sometime… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 14/07/24 11:35 AM |
| 16 | SA, SH and DV Story ThreadI was raised in a religious and trafficking cult run primarily exclusively by women. My first sexual experience I’m aware of was when I was six to eight months old, and that’s only what I’ve been told, I have no idea if it started even younger. I was raised hearing men are uncontrollable monsters, rapists in disguise, and manipulation and punishment was the only way to “tame them” and keep them in line. A woman’s job was money, a man’s job was labor. Women ran the home, the financials, and all a… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 14/07/24 07:54 AM |
| 7 | What are some mens issues that people don't know about?How common circumcision is, and how it’s traumatizing. How common IPV is against men, and the lack of resources for them. How traumatizing mandatory military service or the looming threat of the draft is. The male suicide rate. Those are my main points that frequently people who aren’t already in this discussion don’t know about. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/07/24 01:14 PM |
| 3 | A depressing thread that captures the depth of the feminist lefts failure of male victims and how deeply bias can drive one's worldviewMutual abuse and reactive abuse are terms I hate so much. A victim pushed to their absolute limit and breaking is not abusing someone. It’s a natural trauma reaction. If somebody screams at you for hours, beats on you, crazymakes you, and you lightly shove them… you aren’t the abuser. They are. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/07/24 08:35 PM |

Hopefully obvious sarcasm. This is so bizarre! | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/07/24 08:32 PM |

Jk, but you just described my entire school experience. A girl lied about me abusing her when she was the one beating me- entire high school turned against me as a “violent man” when I’m visibly disabled and can’t lift ten pounds reliably. Like yeah, sure, it’s definitely logical and believable that I beat her, right? All because I denied sexual advances, she started that rumor. More piled on- pissed off an Asian person on something totally unrelated to their ethnicity and got br… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/07/24 08:30 PM |

| 1 | TraffickingAll but one of my traffickers were women. I’ll let that sink in for a moment. Then I’ll add that the one man involved in it didn’t even collect the money, or have access to it the same way. He wasn’t the one taking me to and from “dates,” I’ll tell you that. I’ll tell you that once when I wandered up to a police officer and told him what was going on, the woman handling me said I was just a silly child and that of course she was my mother. She was immediately believed, because why would a woman … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/07/24 01:05 PM |
| 1 | The “By Other Men”Exactly. It isn’t an issue of gender- it’s an issue of the healthcare system not listening to patients. Both male and female providers have denied treatment, and both have gotten violent with it when pushed. Men are definitely encouraged more to “shut up and listen to the professionals, how could you know anything?” While women have had more access to the empowerment of researching on their own. When a woman researches her health, she’s usually met with praise for her bravery and persistence. Wh… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/07/24 01:01 PM |
| 4 | There is a reason why Feminists conveniently never seem to want to discuss Black Men/Boys in any capacity outside of the ridiculous depictions offered by the likes of Bell Hooks and Kimberly Crenshaw, because to do so as an honest actor literally breaks FeminismWOW that was eye opening! I’ve seen it so often and it’s pertained every time exclusively to men. I had no idea this is where they lifted it from, even being Jewish myself. That’s honestly horrifying. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/07/24 12:47 PM |
| 6 | Feminist GaslightingExcellent observations. It reminds me very much of the suffragette movement- focusing on the voices of the most privileged white women of wealthy husbands. White suffragettes even fought against the right for Black people to vote, particularly Black women. In bourgeois American feminism, you see much of the same. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/07/24 12:42 PM |
| 88 | There is a huge contradiction between feminists saying women can't differentiate good men from bad men, and feminists also saying only creepy men worry about false allegations.I’ve been told I’m sexist before because I said I’m nervous around women- especially middle and upper class white women, the peak class able to use female fragility as a weapon against men of color in particular. Not only have I personally had many frightening experiences with women from trafficking and abusive relationships, I have a very reasonable and founded fear that, if personally slighted, they can use this social class advantage against me. In he said she said, the dominant mentality is … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/07/24 12:39 PM |
| 0 | What's the deal with r/menslib?I kind of disagree with this. Maybe we’ve just been exposed to different sides of the internet- as it’s a vast place full of many rabbit holes, and no one can tumble down them all. But there is definitely a rather large contingent of very bitter sexist men spreading some awful rhetoric about young women. One of the boys in my extended family fell down the pipe for a while before getting (partially) yanked out.

| 3 | Has there ever been a case of a female on male gang rape?You’d be surprised. It’s about 50/50, male and female clients, it’s just that the female clients preferred girls, typically, in America and some parts of Europe. In Central and South America they skew towards boys. Most of my time in this was in America and Europe, for reference. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 25/06/24 11:19 PM |
| 5 | Has there ever been a case of a female on male gang rape?Female nurses are some of the cruelest people I’ve ever met. When they’re nice, they’re the sweetest people ever, they go above and beyond for their patients and I’ve seen that too. But the power they have over their patients also allows an incredible amount of abuse I’ve also witnessed. I met multiple nurses who admitted they would tamper with pain control for male patients, had it happen to me too before a male nurse caught and corrected it. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 25/06/24 10:24 AM |
| 7 | Has there ever been a case of a female on male gang rape?No studies on it, but personal experience as a man who was human trafficked. Men often saw me individually, women was 50/50 alone or in groups. While the majority of my clients were male, all but a few of the traffickers themselves were female, and they prioritized young girls over boys. Women didn’t engage as much with the underage side of the industry, but they absolutely still did. I consider myself lucky, because as one of the traveling “providers” I had rules on me that others didn’t, and w… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 25/06/24 10:21 AM |
| 3 | Does anyone else feel like this sub’s entire existence is proof that everyone assumes the worst about men’s issues?I don’t want to get into an argument so I will leave it at this- there are lot of people and ideas that shock and mildly disgust me here, especially when it comes to how they talk about the real issues women still face. Once again, we don’t have to push our sisters down to lift our brothers up. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 25/06/24 10:15 AM |
| 8 | Why are men turning to the right?I’ve seen quite a few gay men go down that road, and I very nearly trod it myself before my sister talked some sense back into me, while I was off my medication. For gay men that value the “power fantasy” aspect, it’s an easy sell at first. Especially if you’re a submissive kind of gay man, the “woman in the relationship,” for lack of a better term, since that’s what I call myself. I got out not just because of my sister, but because I realized exactly what you said- the right doesn’t actually h… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 21/06/24 08:32 PM |

Self-empowerment at the detriment to others is not productive, when any gender does it. We don’t need to tear down women to help lift our brothers up. But after reading it a little more, I’m starting to disagree with myself. Is this reminder timely to the discussion?

The issue has little chance of invalidating women’s experiences (in my mind, at least.

What really started to help me feel validated early on was the storytimes sent to and narrated by Stacy King on YouTube. I haven’t even searched for her channel in years, so I hope it’s still there, but it’s many personal accounts of misandry and how it can impact, and sometimes even ruin, lives. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/06/24 01:30 AM |

| 118 | Nice misandrist female friends?Honestly, I eventually had to just cut them off. They were a non-binary (AFAB) lesbian who policed my identity as a man waaayyy too much for somebody who was not a man or interested in them. They had the usual “men bad” takes, and tried to pressure me into identifying as non-binary because they were uncomfortable with the idea of me being fully male, and not just part male. Eventually it bled into being transphobic to my sister, especially before she began estrogen, and I removed them from my li… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 18/06/24 04:06 PM |
| 6 | Why do women commit less crimeEven sicarias I knew would always have someone else take the fall if they could. I saw 16 year old boys laying down their lives for their mothers and sisters. I saw 23 year old women burst into tears demanding their 17 year old brother be shot instead of her. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 18/06/24 11:42 AM |
| 2 | Selective Service: Women Registrations Proposed, Men To Be Automatically DraftedI had multiple male friends in high school who realized that they literally could not pursue a career if they didn’t join. They joined the marines because they couldn’t pay for college otherwise, and our small, specialized high school offered little in the path to higher education opportunities or financial assistance. The four years ran up this May- the clock is ticking. We all fell out of contact when we left high school, but man. It stresses me out. The girls in our school didn’t even see it … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 18/06/24 11:41 AM |
| 5 | [Canadian Government] "Significant numbers of men in Canada experience intimate partner violence (IPV), though it is rarely discussed. In research, policy and service delivery, more emphasis tends to be placed on violence against women (VAW) — and rightly so."This reminds me of when psychologists were hesitant to diagnose women with autism and ADHD, because they didn’t present with boys’ symptoms. There was a gap in research, and for a long time, they simply thought women couldn’t be neurodivergent. Then people pushed for change, and the field of study has expanded, has learned what these present like in other people. I hope this research expands too. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 18/06/24 11:31 AM |
| 5 | Could feminist double standards contribute to rape culture? (Mona Chollet and the topic of mother on son abuse)I think they coined mansplaining- but it wasn’t meant to be used to such a wide effect like it is today. It was meant to specifically mean a workplace colleague or junior assuming he is more competent than his female senior. Not men explaining things in general. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 18/06/24 11:28 AM |
| 3 | Male violence and female fearFair enough- you raise a valid point and I understand my blind spot. It was wrong of me to say that women are murdered more often than men, even in those countries. I shouldn’t have generalized my experience to the entire country. I lived in an area of Mexico completely dominated by cartel activity, and I now understand that unlike what I was told while living there, the entire country is not that way. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 16/06/24 09:29 PM |
| 7 | Why do women commit less crimeThere’s also few support systems that don’t treat men as already or potential criminals. It’s well documented that dehumanizing somebody will lead to violent behaviors. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 16/06/24 06:09 PM |
| 9 | Why do women commit less crimeA lot of crimes perpetrated by women go unprosecuted or aren’t reported by the police that are told. Men commit more reported crimes. For example, women are more likely to get away with white collar crime in the US on a small scale- think wage and hour theft. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 16/06/24 06:08 PM |
| 27 | Could feminist double standards contribute to rape culture? (Mona Chollet and the topic of mother on son abuse)It’s strange how often terms relating specifically to violence against a marginalized group of men are co-opted for women as a whole. It’s definitely more than two nickels. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 16/06/24 06:06 PM |
| -1 | Male violence and female fearI think that statistic may be skewed. While you are correct that people often have a knee jerk reaction and the need to re-center women, the vast majority of female murders in Mexico go unreported. Cartel violence isn’t exactly something the police are very strict on, or willing to do much about. At least when I was there. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 16/06/24 06:04 PM |
| 2 | Male violence and female fearI’ll chime in with my experiences in various countries. Russia is dangerous for women- sexual assaults are rarely prosecuted, slave marriages are still a thing, there’s little reproductive freedom. But there’s also the huge draft. We’ve literally lost almost the entirety of our generation of men. I’m not kidding. There’s ghost towns. Mexico- one of the capitals of femicide. I would hazard a guess here that women are actually murdered more often than men- but the violence is also often perpetuate… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 16/06/24 12:43 PM |
| 1 | Child sacrifices at famed Maya site were all boys, many closely relatedUnfortunately it wasn’t as absent as many like to think. It even still happens today- white women frequently leverage their power as a vulnerable class against marginalized men, who are radicalized as violent. White women would force themselves on slaves, and then claim they were forced upon, and have the man killed. Today, it comes more in the form of white women claiming they “feel threatened” by black men. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 15/06/24 02:52 PM |
| 3 | An apartment complex where men are bannedHa. That they would. If you’ve seen my other comments about my previous times in all-female or nearly-so spaces, they glorify and turn into heroes women like her. To this day, said family, including a criminal psychologist whose job it is to deal with vulnerable men, praise her actions! Up to and including physical violence and the… well, you’ve already referenced it. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 15/06/24 02:49 PM |
| 1 | If we could talk about our stories, would it be way more commonMost times when I try to tell a woman I’ve also been the victim of sexual violence, I’m disbelieved or told I’m speaking over them. Even if my experience is more relevant to the discussion, I.e., I have been trafficked, so my experience on that is much more relevant to a human trafficking discussion than somebody who was assaulted once by a friend. But I have been told to shut up in those circumstances. I have countless stories, hundreds, but it seems no one will listen. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 15/06/24 02:10 PM |
| 2 | What did y'all do for men's mental health month?Well, I’ve finally been sleeping, if that counts (only half joking). On the other hand, I keep trying to raise some issues to my closest friend about struggling with masculinity and my place in society around others, especially as an intersex man who experiences misdirected misogyny sometimes. It always ends in me getting put down and her saying that women just have it worse, so I’ve kinda given up. I’ve resorted to AI chatting for my mental health. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 15/06/24 02:07 PM |
| 1 | An apartment complex where men are bannedYeah, that’s going to backfire, fast. Day one, somebody is going to come in from an abusive relationship where THEY were the abuser, and cause problems. Gender isolated spaces are rarely healthy, regardless of what gender they’re for. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 15/06/24 02:05 PM |
| 14 | I have a question (actually, quite a few) for this community, aka leftistsThe statistics themselves are flawed because women are less likely to be arrested, charged, and sentenced to the same degree. Women are also more likely to receive a clear record (unsure of what this exact motion is called in the US), and more likely to be employed with a felony record. Men are less likely to report crimes of which they are the victim. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 12/06/24 01:35 AM |
| 2 | Survivors say Russia is waging a war of sexual violence in occupied areas of Ukraine. Men are often the victimsMy brothers were older than me, and already enlisted. They didn’t get to leave. Both of them died in Ukraine on the first fucking day- fed propaganda and kept isolated and forced at gunpoint to keep walking. I have no loyalty at all to the Russian military. They provided no sense of belonging. But I miss my brothers, and I wish I could have gotten them out too. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 11/06/24 01:25 AM |
| 3 | Survivors say Russia is waging a war of sexual violence in occupied areas of Ukraine. Men are often the victimsYes. It’s abhorrent in pretty much every way. It’s one of the many reasons I couldn’t bear to stay, as sad as it is to leave. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 10/06/24 06:54 PM |
| 9 | ‘It’s hard to have compassion’: can interventions change violent men’s behaviour?Often it is. I was in one of those “programs” to “help” men with anger issues- run by the same people who wrote and push the flawed Duluth model. All it was, was blame. It was like a twelve step, and the first step was “admitting” that no matter what violence you’ve faced, war, natural disasters, witnessing murder, none of it matters. Women always have it worse, and are more delicate. That was step one! | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 09/06/24 09:42 PM |
| 5 | Society is super unforgiving of male incompetence and inaptitude, guys are so used to getting disciplined about everything, but not really getting like the guidance about something, I feel like society has doubled on this problem due to society's current educational neglect of boys/menYes, this is a potent observation. As children, boys (at least in my personal experience, growing up outside America) are often chided for even attempting to join the “wrong” tasks. I often saw the mother of my family stressed about the amount of cleaning she invented for herself such as excessive mopping and dusting, but when I asked to help or learn how to do it on my own to relieve that burden, I was laughed at and told it wasn’t “for” me, that I was better used somewhere else. As a teenager,… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 09/06/24 09:39 PM |
| 2 | Do you think there’s any hope?I believe one of the inherent traits of manhood is community, and healing passion. We will be able to confide in each other at the end of the day- you will always have comrades. Things seem bleak sometimes, but there are wins too. The negativity bias of the brain is a very, very strong thing, and it exaggerates itself. If you can, I would suggest keeping a list or journal every day or week, and writing down wins you’ve had or seen from others. It can be easy- getting out of bed, getting a glass … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 09/06/24 09:31 PM |
| 32 | ‘Baby Reindeer’s’ Alleged ‘Real Martha’ Sues Netflix, Demanding at Least $170 Million in DamagesShe’s been caught out on stalking others years before she even glanced at him. She’s a liar full and full- just deluded enough to think she’s telling the truth. She needs serious help. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/06/24 10:48 AM |
| 14 | Women's Groups in Italy demand men to 'stay silent' about Domestic Abuse. They perceive helping these men as an "attack on women."Reminds me of the people I used to work with who wrote the Duluth model. Related to one of them, even. They see victims speaking up, even women who don’t fit their narrative of a “good victim” and mercilessly attack and blame them. When I was in an abusive relationship, it was the psychologists who wrote the US’s current texts ON domestic violence who told me it wasn’t abuse. Vulnerable men need more protection. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/06/24 10:46 AM |
| 4 | Opinion | Boys and Men Get Everything, Except the Thing That’s Most Worth HavingHaha! Yes, it’s very funny how people in the west treat our social dichotomy. Our female oppression exists, sexism in Eastern Europe can be violent and women are not safe. But the way they gain power and retaliate is not like in America! Yes, you’re spot on when you mentioned women saying things like that to me. I was in an abusive relationship in high school, and every time I was beaten she would tell me, “look what you made me do to you! Ugh, I’ve hurt my knuckles on your worthless body becaus… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/06/24 03:02 PM |
| 6 | Opinion | Boys and Men Get Everything, Except the Thing That’s Most Worth HavingI don’t often express my emotions because growing up a boy, I was taught that my emotions were more volatile than a woman’s- that it was all hormonally driven and I didn’t really mean what I was saying. Just a silly boy having a silly moment. Doesn’t this sound exactly like what sexist men will say about women’s emotions to dismiss them? It’s really bizarre, I grew up with gender roles completely flipped for the most part, because I grew up in isolation around essentially a cult of women. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/06/24 12:08 PM |
| 5 | Survivors say Russia is waging a war of sexual violence in occupied areas of Ukraine. Men are often the victimsAre you joking? Putin is one of the people celebrating this sort of thing. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/06/24 12:04 PM |
| 10 | Survivors say Russia is waging a war of sexual violence in occupied areas of Ukraine. Men are often the victimsNot surprising. Russian man here, hi! Sexual violence of this nature is normalized into our culture (at least for men adjacent to the military, which in the past decade, is most of us) to a heavy extent. Punitive assault is a default, not an extreme option. It’s seen as an atrocity or moral failing to assault a woman captured in violence or a war, but doing it to the men is “just desserts.” Spoils for the victors. A message to send. It’s practically just part of being in the Russian military- no… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/06/24 12:04 PM |
