0	I Cheated On My Husband To Secure Better Genes For My Children This is classic evolutionary psychology. We actually talked about this exact topic in class, but it's both interesting and disheartening to see it actually happen.	/r/MensRights	27/04/13 12:51 AM
1	Only straight white males should pay for college (x-post from r/tumblrinaction) SES is the great mediator here. I had more in common with a poor black family than a rich white family growing up.	/r/MensRights	22/04/13 04:07 AM
4	New Zealand man jailed for watching cartoon pixies and elves having sex I agree the man should not be punished but is there concrete proof he is the victim of feminist persecution? How is the blurb at the bottom of the article any different than the typical feminist blaming the patriarchy for all societies ills? I also think this is getting attention because of his previous conviction for indecently assaulting a young boy. While viewing this material is most likely not a "slippery slope" scenario can we so easily attribute his actions as being innocent based on past…	/r/MensRights	21/04/13 06:12 PM
3	"We are shocked to learn that the ordinance introduces a gender neutral perpetrator for sexual assault, suggesting that both women and men could potentially be charged with the offence." I agree. I was just trying to think of something that would be a a punishment worse than death. I think the women have every right to be upset at all the provisions except the gender-neutral language of the law. If no women rape, then why worry about the gender neutrality of the law in the first place? That's akin to making drug laws minority-specific because God knows no white people would ever use or sell drugs.	/r/MensRights	19/02/13 05:06 PM
2	"We are shocked to learn that the ordinance introduces a gender neutral perpetrator for sexual assault, suggesting that both women and men could potentially be charged with the offence." I believe they are against the death penalty, and were hoping for more harsh punishments (torture? castration?)	/r/MensRights	19/02/13 05:20 AM
5	How a radical feminist views her husband: "...he’s just an alien in the home. He helps out a lot with the kids, which I used to appreciate, but now I realise it’s another form of dominance, of trying Wow, using faulty logic of genetics to support her theories. It's as if she truly believes males and females are two distinctly different species. The color blindness proposal got to me, though. If X chromosomes are so magnificent and can repair themselves, why are women still the genetic carriers of male color blindness?	/r/MensRights	03/02/13 03:50 PM
12	Askreddit thread asks "what's the worst thing you've ever been accused of?". Thread EXPLODES with false rape allegations. Never got accused of rape, but attempted rape by "putting something extra" into a girl's jello shot. Luckily I had an absolutely pristine reputation and no one believed it. Turns out she got shit-faced drunk and instead of admitting she had too much to drink, the guy being friendly with her had to have slipped her something. Can you imagine the awkwardness of trying to keep the spiked jello shots separate from the regular ones while I made them with my group of friends?	/r/MensRights	10/01/13 01:26 AM

0	Gay sperm donor must pay out for daughters he barely knows I'm sorry but I can't support the guy in the article. Law existed to protect sperm donors from from this exact scenario, but he circumvented those laws by donating directly AND not putting anything in writing between him and the couple. Yes, it is tragic he is being extorted for his act of kindness but why are we as MRAs pushing for fair law of we then choose to circumvent those very laws meant to protect us?	/r/MensRights	29/10/12 12:59 PM
0	Petition to support the Cleveland bus driver, Artis Hughes, who fought back against his female passager Look, everyone has a right to defend themselves, but I saw the video of the altercation and the driver absolutely destroyed her with a hard uppercut to the face. So many levels of altercation that could have taken place between her screaming and him obliterating her.	/r/MensRights	14/10/12 11:04 PM
-7	Had a discussion with a feminist dinner guest over the holiday (Canadian Thanksgiving). Wrote this summary email to them today. (warning, long!) Remind me to never invite you over for the holidays.	/r/MensRights	10/10/12 07:42 AM
2	Article on women scoring higher than men in IQ tests. The last paragraph takes the biscuit.... You are correct, sample size does affect statistical significance, and we unfortunately don't know the sample size Flynn used to conduct his study. When I meant a 5-point difference I meant comparing an IQ of, for example, 100 to 105. That, depending on a lot of other factors, may or may not be significant but considering an IQ scale ranges from 45 (-3 SD) to 145 (+3 SD), a 5-point difference is minuscule unless the sample derived from it is massive. Additionally, is the difference due to true c…	/r/MensRights	10/09/12 11:15 PM
5	Article on women scoring higher than men in IQ tests. The last paragraph takes the biscuit.... As a psychologist,there are so many issues with this article that it infuriates me. 1) Intelligence tests are a measure of cognitive ability, not factual knowledge or education level per se, though the concepts are correlated. While environmental advantages and disadvantages CAN affect performance (e.g. opportunity), there are IQ tests out there that aren't even word-based, meaning that basic skills like reading, writing, and arithmetic do not factor into test results. A good example of this typ…	/r/MensRights	10/09/12 09:57 PM
1	My University Required a Sexual Misconduct Training in Order to not have Enrollment Blocked. You can Guess at How biased it was Fellow OUer here. I've got to take the same mandatory training.	/r/MensRights	30/08/12 12:58 AM
1	Textbook Discrimination The OP mentioned that he looked around in his behavior science classes (psychology) and noticed far more females than males. You can't generalize between fields in a field-specific class, especially social sciences. In social sciences, females tend to outnumber males. Refer to this infographic here showing the % of PhDs being awarded to females in certain fields, and attend to the social sciences section. Almost 2/3's of all PhDs are granted to women. http://kieranhealy.org/files/misc/phil-all-d…	/r/MensRights	08/06/12 04:02 AM
-6	"Half of students strongly agreed that it was okay for a girl to hit her boyfriend under certain circumstances" Very true, I am talking about averages of course, but in cases where those size and strength differences disappear, I imagine a different set of rules would need to be applied.	/r/MensRights	07/06/12 11:59 PM
-2	"Half of students strongly agreed that it was okay for a girl to hit her boyfriend under certain circumstances" I wouldn't know, I've never gotten that angry at anyone like that before.	/r/MensRights	07/06/12 11:58 PM
7	Textbook Discrimination The issue is that you are in behavioral science, or psychology, and along with other fields like sociology and education tend to have a large female interest. I'm not trying to invalidate your argument, because it is a valid one, but your observation of fellow students is a function of the field you are in.	/r/MensRights	07/06/12 04:22 PM
1	A nice infograph showing how repressed men really are in society. Needs more graphic, less info.	/r/MensRights	05/06/12 06:29 PM

1	Car Insurance Sexism. What you are failing to see is that statistical risk DOES predict, to a high degree, individual conduct. Sure, there are a few outliers, but all in all they accurately predict the risk of young male populations. And profiling doesn't necessarily = discrimination. Also profiling DOESN'T mean discrimination. Discrimination is the use of a profile in a way that doesn't reflect reality, or that the profile is used in such a way that it disproportionately affects one party versus the other WHEN THERE…	/r/MensRights	26/05/12 07:00 PM
1	Car Insurance Sexism. It's not that it's being banned, but the differences in male and female crash rates are starting to disappear.	/r/MensRights	26/05/12 06:31 PM
4	Car Insurance Sexism. It's based on statistics, and statistics don't lie. It's profiling, sure, but it's not discrimination or sexism. Racism is a moot point because insurance is essentially a risk assessment, and young people get charged more because of their lack of experience, but males moreso because they are most likely to be in high cost accidents. Now imagine if they didn't charge based on statistically certifiable risk, everyone who isn't high risk would shoulder the additional cost this high risk group gener…	/r/MensRights	26/05/12 06:15 PM
-2	Car Insurance Sexism. It's not sexist. Men are more likely to cause or be in high-cost auto accidents, therefore they are a higher liability to insure. Edit: Insurance rates are based on statistics and you essentially pay your premium based on risk your profile as a driver presents the insurance company. For those comparing sex to race, IF IT WAS AN HONEST PREDICTOR OF RISK, you can be damned sure it would cost high risk races more for insurance. I can guarantee you somewhere in the files of each insurance company is…	/r/MensRights	26/05/12 06:08 PM
