Push clasp together, slide each side in opposite directions (one up and one down), then let go. It's usually that simple, but it depends on the bra.

No one's mentioned hobbies yet. I dance, and that's a really good way to meet women. Any partner dance is good: tango, salsa, ballroom, swing, blues (especially blues).

I got dumped via voicemail last week after three months of being in a relationship. This post is exactly what I plan to do (self-improvement items different). I got the "I think you're a great guy." Ew. Just no. Making myself not be a great guy gives me energy and purpose. Also, I'm reflecting on what made me unattractive so I will be irresistible to the next girl.

They are very similar in that both instances both know they can do something. With arrogance, there's the added element of letting everyone else know. This is in a nutshell, and there are definitely others as well.

I had this sort of thing happen to me too. It's what made me realize I had to get BACK to seduction. BTW...don't be surprised if she has a new bf shortly. My ex said the same sorts of things, she'll never forget things, I was a great friend, etc. And after being together for almost four years, she had a new bf only a couple of months after the breakup. She never meant anything she said about our friendship. You guys were only together 7 months? I doubt you know her better than anyone else. Sorry…

I heard a story about how overcoming approach anxiety. I'm not sure if this was a formal study or if a dating coach did this (I will have to look this up), but they had their students/pupils approach attractive women in Central Park. These guys had bananas on a leash and pretended to feed their bananas smaller bananas while walking their bananas around the park. They used their "pet bananas" as a means of striking up conversations with attractive women. What they found was that the highest level…

Its not that he's not one of those four things in general, it's that he's trying to hit on women that came to the club with guys who are those four things. Not every beautiful woman in the world wants that type of guy, but if they came to the club with a guy like that, there's a good chance that's what they're into.

Most of the time I've been flaked on, it's been a variant of her first point, it's that the girl was afraid I just wanted sex. Maybe that's what she meant? Anyways, in each instance it was very clear that I didn't want mere friendship, so I completely agree with you there.

To be fair, men are quite often told to "own their shit" but it's phrased as "man up." The other point I'm going to touch on is: "Why is everything always seen as some sort of gender war, when many men will never face gender specific issues at all?" True, many men will not, but unfortunately many men will. I think a common misconception these day is that women are still disadvantaged all across the board when the fact is that feminism made tremendous progress and that's just not the case anymore…

He does go on to make a point (which the thread for the most part agrees with) that about 10% of feminists are the radicals that are heard and the other 90% aren't extreme and are reasonable. There is a problem with this though. Let's say (just for the sake of argument) that this is true--that 90% of feminists don't agree with the radicals that think all men should be hated. Why aren't these "moderates" speaking up so they aren't being drowned out?

Why is she suing the original producer of the video? Unless posting the video to YouTube was some contract violation, then shouldn't it be the third party that used it without consent that should be sued here? Edit: According to the article the contract said it's okay for Meredith Video to post to all media and is not liable for third parties. Plus they are actively trying to get the porn videos taken down, so what is the basis of her suit?

No. no. no. The guy in the relationship says he does want to get married, but not with the girl he's dating. This implies he is waiting for someone else to come along, which is what people are mad at him for. It would be different if he just said "meh, I don't want to get married," but he eventually sees himself with another woman. That's where the problem is.

">This guy's life was, apparently, in danger and his biggest concern was that his ex-wife didn't pay what he thought he was worth? Really?" Obvious joke was obvious. This definitely isn't instilling the notion that men have a cavalier attitude towards violence and danger.

">Not focussing on women's athletics = sexism. Focussing on women's athletics = sexism." You raise a good point. I think this hurts women's sports tremendously. I mean if I can't watch a highlight reel without objectifying women, then who's to say I can't watch the women actually compete without objectifying them? Also, this article is telling people they shouldn't watch the video and be awed by the athletic ability of these women--it's taking the focus off of their accomplishments.

Porn-tastic music!? That sounds like improv jazz to me. What was interesting was that most of the comments didn't really seem to think the video was terrible. Most just had a problem with the music. Some pointed out that Yahoo had a gratuitous amount of pictures from the "objectifying" video. The only people that had a real problem that I saw were Jezebel, some Rosenberg woman (not sure who she is) and the author of the article.

There's a difference between giving your two cents and forcing your viewpoint down someone's throat. For instance, it's one thing to tell someone they shouldn't smoke because it's bad for their health, but it's another to take away all their cigarettes and force them to quit. That's my viewpoint anyway. I think most people giving advice are trying to be helpful, not controlling.

"Also a lot of people are probably inclined to believe that Tosh did something bad after he apologized for doing something bad." It's a safe bet to assume something happened--that Tosh did in fact say something to this woman in the audience. But did he apologize for doing something bad? Actually no.

I will say though, that many times men are personified as needing to be dominant in order to be sexy. A dominant person wouldn't be seen as confined to boundaries, lacking their own voice, or as a tool for someone else, and some of the other criteria for being objectified. Overall, very interesting posts (including the one about the study). Thanks for sharing. Note: Dominant may not be the best wording, but it's late where I am and I couldn't think of a better word.

The thing is, when someone has attacked you and is getting up after being hit, it is still possible they are going to attack you. From being in prison for ten years he probably knows that all too well.

The area was full of dangerous weapons, knives, and hot oil. When I was reading the article I was trying to figure out why it wasn't excessive use of force. I thought it was because there was no way he could know if they had any weapons on them (and because he was outnumbered 2:1). After reading your comment that cleared up that question quite nicely.

"she" is a fictional, hypothetical character who OP has decided to record prior to them having sex. Legit news story and not OP. Also, taping having sex with someone else is perverted, but I don't believe it is a crime if it is not shared.

How is this legal? I thought a person was innocent until proven guilty which, last time I checked, was still "beyond a reasonable doubt." I don't think a reasonable doubt is defined as greater than or equal to 50%.

We don't get many females here and even fewer lesbians. The vast majority of contributors here are male, that's a fact. I like how you felt the need to let everyone know you were female (lesbian), yet argue you couldn't assume their gender. Second, you mention the same thing happening at a bar would be unacceptable behavior. That's true, in that instance it would be because there is an actual chance of danger. But this isn't a bar; it's a community. Imagine someone saying hi to you because you'r…

I hate this. You assume because he's a guy and you're a girl he must be trying to get with you or something? Do you think it's possible that perhaps because you're female that you may not come to r/mensrights very often or may be new here? I think this is a prime example of a form of discrimination faced by men from women. I'm shocked that so many people here are down-voting NiceIce. Edit: Example of Creep Shaming

Guys, the issue here isn't whether or not crimes are being reported. The problem the OP is seeing is that the crimes aren't mentioned in the same light they would be if the perpetrator was male.

So security considers this an extension of domestic terrorism? Interesting. Though I wasn't aware airport security was related to the military I know they are federally regulated, but I wouldn't have guess this law would apply to them too.

Airport security is consistently made up of assholes who hate their job and want to make other people's lives miserable as well. As for the mother, she is an idiot who either is a terrible parent or isn't good enough of one to remove all traces of doubt that she's not. Unfortunately that stereotype gave her something she could lash out with. Question: Can they legally detain you for no reason?

"I [really] hate when I hear or see guys..." This implies that it was, in fact, not just a single incident. Although later posts suggest that it's possibly the 'situation she was just in' brought up those past times, it wasn't apparent at the initial post. Honestly, I wouldn't have even responded to her post. I really can't think of any way to bring that up without coming across as confrontational.

Books on dating will support this--even the ones that are more reputable than "The Game." I've seen this in action in real life too, though I think the girl is attracted to the guy that is mean to her because she feels that since he isn't under her spell, he must be more dominant than the other guys. I honestly feel like this is a big reason feminists are so against all the "slut shaming." If women don't dress as provocatively, it will be harder for them to manipulate guys to do things they want…

I really don't see how a woman being 'married to the government for life' is a bad thing. We can't afford all this aid and it really isn't going to help women out either.

That way of thinking ignores that women, overall, still face more discrimination and hardships than men. This is bad logic. I disagree with that statement, but for the sake of argument let's assume it's true. It's like saying "well I tallied up the number of problems both sexes have;women have 103 and men have 72--therefore I don't think Men need their own center." I can understand her concern about the center being in opposition to the women's center (Edit: Instead of working with) and I think …

The point I made was to refrain from profanity, not anger. What he has done in the past 6 years has done more for Men's Rights than 30 years of placating and aping feminists ever accomplished. That's blatantly not true. Feminists have more or less turned men into second class citizens that are still labeled as privileged (hence the article).

Whether or not it actually is, race is at the fore-front of this debate instead of gender. I'm to take a shot and guess why the judge did what she did. Perhaps she wants to set a precedent in hopes that people won't abuse the Stand Your Ground law--especially after the Trayvon Martin incident. That's just a guess and, even if true, doesn't mean this isn't f'd up. EDIT: I'm talking about the original judge that dismissed her defense of standing her ground.

I don't think it's clear that he was in fact the one objectifying women (at least from the paraphrasing, but it's impossible for me to know). @drgk: I think her problem against you is personal.

She's probably just ignorant. Even as a guy I wasn't aware of all the issues there are with Men's Rights. The important thing to decide is whether or not she's open minded. Another possibility is that she wasn't taking the issue seriously. You mention it's a first date. More often than not those are light-hearted.

Why is she waiting until now? I'm sure this isn't the first time someone has comment on her looks, but I'm pretty sure the is the first time it wasn't something flattering. People compliment her and it's cool, but say something negative and suddenly it's exploitation? Give me a break. She's been making millions on her looks (for years), so I guess it's okay when it's for her own personal profit then.
