| 0 | On a post about how much OP hates being a woman because of how much they get raped...You are doing it again. I granted that it may be the case that there is no statistical difference(though again, show it to me). This is to say that I'll grant it actually is the case that I am as helpless to defend myself as a woman is in assult situations. The point is that you are responding to someone sharing their feelings/fears and stressors with antagonistic debate. That is one of the number of reasons why that kind of an answer is inappropriate. Reread what I said more carefully if you ar… | /r/MensRights | 27/04/19 11:44 PM |
| -1 | On a post about how much OP hates being a woman because of how much they get raped...I am not aware of the statisitic that men are more likely to get randomly jumped/assulted, and I'd love to see it. That being said, I am willing to grant the point because thats not the Important part of what I am trying to get at. I still think it is not on topic. Why is it you think in a conversation about someone expressing and venting about a legitimate stressor and fear that they and many people have in our society is the right place for you to get into an intellectual pissing match? You ha… | /r/MensRights | 27/04/19 08:59 PM |
| -5 | On a post about how much OP hates being a woman because of how much they get raped...The sorts of things that contribute to women getting raped have unique qualities when compared to men getting raped. For example, if I were having a conversation about male rape, it would be odd for me to come into the conversation saying "hey guys, I'd rather we talk about women's rape problems. And that is why this guy is being annoying. It doesn't seem wrong to me to have a conversation about the earlier without having to talk about the latter, especially when everyone knows men get raped too… | /r/MensRights | 27/04/19 05:06 PM |

| 1 | Huffington Post writers are chosen mostly based on their gender and race. Isn't that the definition of racism?What I think you might be saying, and correct me if I am misrepresenting you, is "it seems irresponsible to trust people based solely because they happened to have read/learned/discussed a topic for a lot of years." And there is some merit to that. Certainly you can research a topic for a lot of years and still be wrong about that topic(that's why there is disagreement in all of these fields) but typically there are A. Checks and balances in the total system of knowledge generation(multiple jour… | /r/MensRights | 16/03/18 09:32 AM |
| 1 | Huffington Post writers are chosen mostly based on their gender and race. Isn't that the definition of racism?I didn't say academia is without problems. The sorts of critisms you mention are thing that people write about often. However, I asked if you could give me a more responsible knowledge making system, and you haven't given any alternative. | /r/MensRights | 16/03/18 08:18 AM |
| 2 | Huffington Post writers are chosen mostly based on their gender and race. Isn't that the definition of racism?A bunch of people have spent years upon years of their life researching and reading about one topic. You write about said topic. The people who have spent years of their life reasearching and reading about that topic tell you if you have said anything new, novel or worth saying about that topic. Can you think of a better way? | /r/MensRights | 16/03/18 05:32 AM |
| -1 | Huffington Post writers are chosen mostly based on their gender and race. Isn't that the definition of racism?Peer reveiew by experts in a field seems like the most responsible way to generate knowledge. | /r/MensRights | 16/03/18 04:38 AM |
| -5 | Huffington Post writers are chosen mostly based on their gender and race. Isn't that the definition of racism?I am aware of no contemporary academic papers that would define it as you did. How have you decided that your definition is the best one to use? Perhaps though, arguing the definition is pedantic. I will say that we allow discrimination in the case of gender and locker rooms, for example. And such types of discrimination we don't call sexism. There are more factors that go into discrimation vs. any of the isms than it seems you want to grant. | /r/MensRights | 16/03/18 02:34 AM |
| -5 | Huffington Post writers are chosen mostly based on their gender and race. Isn't that the definition of racism?No. This is known as discrimination. Not all of which is necessarily immoral. | /r/MensRights | 15/03/18 06:16 PM |

| -4 | We at MensRights would like to celebrate international womens day because in contrary to popular belief we're not anti women!He says not a single thing about "men's issues are trivial". If he meant "men's issues are trivial and therefore we shouldn't have a IMD because of that" he would have said that. Homeboy has a PhD, he's not dumb. It seems to me you have missed his point. The entire second half of the essay is him talking about what an idea for something to do on an IMD. He also makes sure to say that IMD "might need to be rethought." He does not use the phrase "should not exist". I think that all of us think tha… | /r/MensRights | 08/03/18 08:29 PM |
| 1 | My dorm just put up this new board, "Mansplaining Explained"Mansplaining refers to the fact that it gets done to women, not specifically (though it is used in some contexts to refer to) the fact that women get interrupted more by men specifically. | /r/MensRights | 08/03/18 07:40 PM |
| -2 | We at MensRights would like to celebrate international womens day because in contrary to popular belief we're not anti women!The paper you showed me didn't seem at all problematic. And that is a feminist peice(though, not exactly academic per-se. No peer reveiw on a guardian Article) that you seem to agree with. So you don't take issue with feminism or feminists. You disagree with certain points that certain feminists make. | /r/MensRights | 08/03/18 07:28 PM |
| -9 | We at MensRights would like to celebrate international womens day because in contrary to popular belief we're not anti women!It is tho. Have you actually read any academic feminism? | /r/MensRights | 08/03/18 05:03 PM |
| -1 | My dorm just put up this new board, "Mansplaining Explained"If you feel it is a problematic term(which I think I agree with) the better way of convincing people not to use it would be saying something along the lines of "I agree this phenomena is interesting and unfortunate and I am here to support solutions. However, the term mansplaining feels devisive to me. I prefer the term XXXX instead." We need to be especially clear at what we are critiquing, though. | /r/MensRights | 02/03/18 10:12 AM |

| -1 | My dorm just put up this new board, "Mansplaining Explained"My sources are studies from the University of berlin, two peer reviewed papers from George Washington U. And I dont remember the third one but I think it was a study out of UC Santa Cruz. You can't get much better than that. Though I'm making an assumption here, I am guessing you aren't an evolutionary biologist and probably don't have the credentials to be able to make that call, that is, about biology. Even if that is the case that it is biological, it does not mean that A. It does not suck to… | /r/MensRights | 02/03/18 08:31 AM |

| -2 | Feminist Philosophy Class Was 'Indoctrination,' Says Columbia StudentIt doesn't though. It's sort of like taking a Descartes seminar and being angry that Hume's empericism isn't being given enough air time. That's not really what we signed up for, is it? | /r/MensRights | 08/02/18 05:08 PM |

| -34 | Feminist Philosophy Class Was 'Indoctrination,' Says Columbia Student-Takes class specifically about women's issues -comes to class talking about things that are not women's issues -people get mad about your being off topic. -"ha, got em." you think to yourself. Sort of like if you took a class on decarte and decided to bring in your copy of Hume and ramble on about how decarte was wrong about everything. Yeah, sure, mabye, but that's not the point. | /r/MensRights | 08/02/18 04:20 PM |
| 1 | Jordan Peterson interview fallout: It's little wonder men don't know where they standYou are right, feminsim is not a philosphy at all. Standpoint theory, Simone de Beauvoir's "second sex", and care ethics are feminist Philosophies though. | /r/MensRights | 04/02/18 06:43 PM |
| 1 | Jordan Peterson interview fallout: It's little wonder men don't know where they standIt seems odd to me that you could critique/dismiss an entire field without A. Having read the seminal texts in the field and B. Have better read, better informed people that do seem to find some value in it. To claim you are just soooo much smarter than them that you were able to "figure it out" without doing anything of the research seems like an act of hubris to me. As is the case with any philosphy, no one ever agrees on anything. Just because Newtonian physics, Einstein's physics, and string… | /r/MensRights | 04/02/18 06:27 PM |
| 0 | Jordan Peterson interview fallout: It's little wonder men don't know where they standI am ok with people who have proven they have requisite knowledge an expertise in a certain field saying that they do. So feminists with a research backround can talk statistics (and if you think it only proves their bias, then critique their experimental methods. Some scholars would say it's impossible to not have some bais come in no matter who is doing the experiment.) Feminists who have philosphy backround can talk philosophy. (When. I say backround I mean published in that area) and then th… | /r/MensRights | 04/02/18 06:14 PM |
| 0 | Jordan Peterson interview fallout: It's little wonder men don't know where they standActually yes, or at least more of us should become those ourselves so that we can actually have some ground. Now mabye if you want to critique one specific gender studies paper, all you need to have done is read the seminal texts+ that paper. It seems hard to be fair to a lot of what feminist papers are saying without doing so. One just lacks too much context. To critique whole field when one hasn't yet proven expertise on a field seems really disingenuous, and quite an act of hubris to me. Now,… | /r/MensRights | 04/02/18 06:02 PM |
| 1 | Jordan Peterson: Boys are being set up to fail | "Decline in men at universities bad for both sexes"Im not so sure you read my post carefully enough. It tends to be good faith to use the principle of charity when arguing If we did want to simplify my position, my point would be... JP tends to Strawman alot of arguements despite people with more expertise in their respective fields showing that's what he is doing. But that doesn't quite capture my position and that's why I wouldn't try to simplify things. If he A. Understood what he wants to argue against B.

| -1 | Jordan Peterson interview fallout: It's little wonder men don't know where they standThat's not exactly what I meant. Excuse me if it seemed that way. Typically one wants to use the principal of charity when arguing. Typically we defer to experts when talking about things we dont know. I defer to scientific journals when I want to know science, for example. He can talk about what he wants, it's when he claims to have expertise on something that he so far has not shown expetise that I take issue with. When I talk about biology, for example, I tend to lead or end with a " but i do… | /r/MensRights | 04/02/18 10:17 AM |
| 1 | Jordan Peterson: Boys are being set up to fail | "Decline in men at universities bad for both sexes"Ill get you links when I can, but for example I know he 100% gets his history of Western thought wrong on his account of post modernism. That word really encapsulates his most egregious error that I know if his. A whole section of his Philosphy and politics is based around a critique of post modernism while getting exactly what post modernism is wrong, and getting the history of whatever HE means by it wrong. I only speak of philosphy at this point, but that's just where my area of expertise lea… | /r/MensRights | 04/02/18 02:14 AM |
| -16 | Jordan Peterson interview fallout: It's little wonder men don't know where they standGo look at his cv. Because he comments quite a bit on philosphy, literature and political matters yet is not thought of, by the experts anyway, as much more than a hack in any of those fields. His critiques on philosphy (feminism included) are sophmoric, tend to misrepesent positions and don't really say anything new or novel. If you want JP like ideas there are much better places to go for them. If Peterson did want his ideas to gain any sort of legitimacy, he would publish. Better informed peo… | /r/MensRights | 04/02/18 02:05 AM |
| -15 | Jordan Peterson interview fallout: It's little wonder men don't know where they standHe is though. Outside of his field of psychology he is unable to be published in academic journals and still pretends like he has some kind of expertise in those fields. | /r/MensRights | 04/02/18 01:33 AM |

| 2 | Jordan Peterson: Boys are being set up to fail | "Decline in men at universities bad for both sexes"He has time and time again misrepresented other people's positions and doesn't think very carefully when he speaks. There is a reason why he can't get any of his Philosphy published in academic journals. His representation of other's positions does not pass peer review and his ideas aren't anything particularly new, novel, or haven't been said much better by someone else out there. The fact that he is willing to continue to speak on philosphies(feminism included) which he doesn't understand well… | /r/MensRights | 04/02/18 01:15 AM |

I have had some schooling in this, and if we were to be talking about most other fields you would probably have a position to say the same thing. I don't deny that he sounds that way. And I am assuming some things about you when ai say this. When you know the texts/authors/movements that he speaks about in philosphy(and I speak only about this because I have some schooling in … | /r/MensRights | 04/02/18 01:09 AM |
| -2 | Jordan Peterson: Boys are being set up to fail | "Decline in men at universities bad for both sexes"While probably a fine scholar in his own field(of which I have no familiarity) he has time and time again misrepresented, misinterpreted people's positions when critiquing them; and overall is not a very careful thinker when it comes to his philosophy and politics. | /r/MensRights | 04/02/18 12:31 AM |

It is really freeing when you do, I promise you human to human. It feels great to not be so angry Good luck. I believe you can do it. | /r/MensRights | 31/01/18 09:01 AM |

| 1 | Woman Tweets That Her Son Is Puzzled About A Feminist Talking Point - Men Objectifing Women -That She Cannot AnswerIt seems like an act of hubris to say that anyone who disagrees with you must have mal-intent. I must admit, though, your ideas are starting to become a bit unclear to me. It seems to me you saying feminists exhibit some cult like behavior and they probably shouldn't. I'm not saying you are necessarily wrong on that. I am simply asking why do you decide to say "feminists seem to exhibit some cult like behavior and shouldn't." vs. saying "politically charged movements seem to exhibit some cult li… | /r/MensRights | 31/01/18 05:17 AM |
| 1 | Woman Tweets That Her Son Is Puzzled About A Feminist Talking Point - Men Objectifing Women -That She Cannot AnswerYou are conflating the term "feminism" with "feminists" Feminism refers to a movement or body of work which deals with analysis from a position of 1. Women face their own type of problems in the world and 2. We would like to rectify those problems. You cannot say "feminism likes to hear that which it agrees with" because a movement is not the sort of thing which likes and dislikes things.

I can fight against a doctor's office that doesn't have sufficient care for women, for example. It seems to me there are only 2 things that are required for something to be "feminist". 1. That it accepts that women face specific issues in society in relation to them being women and that 2. Part of it's analysis is motivated by a want to rectify those issues.

| 1 | Woman Tweets That Her Son Is Puzzled About A Feminist Talking Point - Men Objectifing Women -That She Cannot Answer"feminists like when they hear someone says something they agree with" This is not limited to feminists and I am not sure why you feel like it is. This is similar to saying Dr.king and Malcom X both like it when I think black people are white people's equals and then saying "both sides are the same" as a result if that. It shows an incredible amount of inexperience with their positions. Talk to the positions about where the differ and there will arguement. I guarantee it. | /r/MensRights | 31/01/18 02:14 AM |

This post certainly isn't made by one of those people. I disagree with your second point and dont understand why you feel a war analogy is the most appropriate way to describe your idea here. Feminism has no structure in the same way "extestentialism" has no structure. This isn't a state. You can't declare war on an idea.

| 1 | Woman Tweets That Her Son Is Puzzled About A Feminist Talking Point - Men Objectifing Women -That She Cannot AnswerIt's almost like feminism is a word that labels an amalgamation of complex doctrines/belifes that recognize that there are some things wrong with the way we treat women in society and we should try to fix that, yet don't refer to any one specific set of belifes so in that way there is some disagreement in exactly how they think society should get to where it needs to be.

The argument goes diversity is an asset in projects because it brings along multiple perspectives, while, at the same time, having difference in our lawbooks, in our culture, ect. is a dangerous precedent to set for clear historical reasons.
