–	did they not learn from Ghostbusters ? Rihanna stars in All-Female Ocean's 8 Spinoff \| I don't really get it. One movie with an all-woman headlining cast did okay, but not great, so now nobody should ever make another movie with an all woman headlining cast? Let's get real. It's just a new heist movie, with a bunch of solid-bet bankable stars (Sandra Bullock? Cate Blanchett?) and a franchise-y hook ready. It might be good? It might be awful? We have no idea yet? It's not really worth getting worked up over?	/r/MensRights	04/11/16 07:09 AM
-3	Disabled man kicked off the bus to accommodate a "person" with a stroller. City buses are a public service basically everywhere. While most also charge fare, they are still tax-funded. They're intended to provide transportation to everyone. Priority space is set aside for people who use bulky, non-optional mobility devices like wheelchairs or strollers (yep, a stroller is a non-optional safety device for bus-goers with babies. sling carriers or babes-in-arms are unsafe in crashes and lugging around a wheel-less car seat is pretty tough). If people with wheelchairs and …	/r/MensRights	02/11/16 07:44 AM
–	Disabled man kicked off the bus to accommodate a "person" with a stroller. I don't see what this has to do with gender or men's issues? The driver bumped a person carrying a rolly bag of sports gear out of the space normally used for wheelchairs and strollers, without knowing the rolly-bag-carrying person was disabled. What would've been, IDK, a 20 minute delay to a non-disabled person was a massive inconvenience to this person. It's a screw-up, but it's a screw-up mostly because this driver seems to be a bit ignorant about people with disabilities. Not all disabilitie…	/r/MensRights	02/11/16 06:49 AM
–	What we are all aiming for (X-post from TrollXChromosomes) Feminism, as a large movement, has been behind most of the useful and interesting scholarship about the role of gender in society over the last century or so. Looking at the over-representation of male suicides through a feminist lens doesn't mean telling a just-so story or beginning at a conclusion and working backward. It means discussing issues like the stigma of accessing mental health services and how cultural ideas about masculinity can make that stigma worse for men. (For a pop-culture re…	/r/MensRights	06/08/15 10:36 PM
1	More research stating that Women don't go into STEM due to their own choices, not due to sexism I don't see how it's "blinders" to assume that a desire to follow the social status quo should always be assumed present to some degree. People love habits and doing things the way they've always been done. So if you're going to assume any other cause beyond that, it's up to you to prove it.	/r/MensRights	07/03/15 07:38 AM
1	More research stating that Women don't go into STEM due to their own choices, not due to sexism It's not really a rebuttal, just an example of how very complex situations do not always yield identical results. And guild-regulated professions like medicine are very different from unregulated ones like, well, almost everything else in science. You complete your medical education, you're a doctor. Bam. The supply is regulated. So any change in who gets to be a doctor only has to deal with a few specific hurdles (med school admission policies, residency matching). Effecting a change in that ki…	/r/MensRights	07/03/15 07:28 AM
–	More research stating that Women don't go into STEM due to their own choices, not due to sexism I don't get how this disproves sexism. Don't see that at all in the data. Right now, there are fewer women in these fields, and that in itself could easily lead to less confidence/choosing other career paths just out of repeating what's already been done. You need to directly rule out the possibility of this being a plain old case of people following the status quo.	/r/MensRights	06/03/15 07:58 AM
1	It's official: Women should be above the law - Lawyer Gloria Allred has urged US comedian Bill Cosby to waive the statute of limitations to allow women alleging he sexually abused them to "obtain just "Justice" can mean a lot of things, and it certainly doesn't always mean "following current laws to the letter." And I don't know why this is labelled "false accusations." The accusations have not been ruled on in any court ever, they seem plausible, and there hasn't been evidence demonstrating they are false. Just call them regular accusations, that word is accurate.	/r/MensRights	05/12/14 06:06 AM
7	(x/post from /r/videos)Why Rape Is Sincerely Hilarious. R/feminism posted this video with an extremely positive response. I'm interested, what are your thoughts about that?	/r/MensRights	28/03/14 08:45 AM
