13	It's funny how male issues are only considered issues once it start to affect women. It is a modern lesser slur. Not at n-word level obviously, but similar to 'Karen' or 'Slut'.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	27/08/24 12:55 PM
7	UK: Schoolboys exploit gender-friendly policies by wearing skirts on hot days. OP: It is that time of the year again Skirt is probably cooler than shorts regardless?	/r/MensRights	28/06/23 03:51 AM
2	Do Women Hate Being Women? Was looking for this comment. I never used "male" and "female" until I joined. Now it's the normal way I speak.	/r/MensRights	28/11/22 01:22 AM
4	"Women are more attractive than men" is just socially acceptable misandry Huh. Never considered that, but the match checks out, assuming the <10% is accurate. Aren't there studies showing the younger generations are massively more likely to identify as gay/lesbian or bi though?	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/11/22 03:23 AM
3	"Why is it that when it comes to gender disparities, we only consider areas where men achieve success? When we look at distribution among the lowest social strata, why do we struggle to acknowledge that men are vastly over-represented?" So here I have to disagree. Fighting for a good job, even though it means it's not available for others is not immoral. Attempting to change laws so that you have an unfair advantage, that I would argue is immoral, but simply trying to achieve a better life for yourself isn't. That applies to any gender.	/r/MensRights	03/05/21 01:48 PM
3	Older video on "men having it easier" Seemed like this belonged here. It makes a number of good points regarding the "men at the top" fallacy, prisons, and the concept of attractive women/unattractive women vs attractive men/unattractive men. It's also in no way anti-women, bringing up the negatives on the other side. Plus it's a beautiful background.	/r/MensRights	16/10/20 02:47 PM
1	:) As of right now "toxic femininity " is not a mainstream term, and I would argue attempting to make it so would be counterproductive. Building males up rather than tearing females down should always be our primary goal. As for benefiting women, a lot of what is considered toxic are behaviors and attitudes that benefit society as a whole, but not the male or the people around him. They can come across as abrasive and controlling (see heriarchal leadership vs web leadership) and often have the resu…	/r/MensRights	15/06/20 03:28 PM
5	:) The current theory is that toxic masculinity is things like assuming you're right because you're male, assuming technical knowledge (see "mansplaining"), a tendency to butt in, wanting to solve problems rather than listen. I'm sure there's others. Most of that is either A: gender neutral (both genders assume they're right because of their gender and thinking you know something that you don't is a common character flaw) or B: not really a problem, but it makes people uncomfortable. (Having a puni…	/r/MensRights	14/06/20 11:28 AM
1	Spoke with my wife about gender equality today. Out of curiosity, what was this supposed to accomplish? Other than being deliberately hurtful, I mean. And if that was your intent, what justification did you give yourself to do so?	/r/MensRights	18/03/20 01:22 PM
2	Spoke with my wife about gender equality today. I would really prefer not to do so.	/r/MensRights	16/03/20 06:33 PM
1	Imagine being this delusional Really? I get that from the OP in the story, but reading through the comment threads it appears she has come to accept that what she said was bigoted, though it came from ignorance/misinformation, not maliciousness. The last response from the OP on the first comment thread was something like "oh, I didn't realize I was being bigoted." Unless I'm misreading, I'm on mobile and it's easy to make that mistake. I do agree that the word salad arguments didn't make much sense to me, but they appear to …	/r/MensRights	23/02/20 11:51 PM
0	Imagine being this delusional Some of the arguments lost me. For instance, I have no understanding of the term "intersectuality." However, most of the comments I saw were very egalitarian and made sense, even if they were framed in ways that feel more like political debates than standard opinions. The only real red flag I saw was the removal of so many posts, and that's due to a sub rule that is logical, even if I can see how it could have unintended consequences.	/r/MensRights	23/02/20 11:25 PM
10	Ex-Femenists what made you turn? It very possibly could kill us to understand a womans anger. Men "deserve" fair and equal treatment under the law and by society, same as women. Please, enumerate what injustice you are speaking about, in a western society. Good idea on the book. May I recommend this one? https://www.amazon.com/Women-Vs-Feminism-Liberating-Gender/dp/1787144763 Written by a woman, as requested. :)	/r/MensRights	10/02/20 07:58 PM
3	Modsplaining ... okay. I'll accept that. I still disagree slightly, I have met a couple folks who got out and mentioned their diagnosis, but you're more right than wrong here. I read that as everyone who says they have the diagnosis AT ALL, not... well, what you meant	/r/PussyPassDenied	03/12/19 01:10 PM
6	Modsplaining Sir! Sir! I have great news! The trenches are gone! The war has been over for 100 years, and we won! ...Since I can only assume you're a WW1 general complaining that "shellshock" is just malingering. PTSD exists. It's not nearly as prevalent as self-diagnosed internet commenters would have you believe, but to say it doesn't exist/those suffering are idiots is the height of folly and ignorance, not to mention incredibly disrespectful towards the troops (you know, those brave men and women who vol…	/r/PussyPassDenied	02/12/19 02:10 PM
0	Saw this comment on a video of a girl repeatedly assaulting a guy who didn't fight back Ah. Apologies. You have nothing to contribute but ad hominem attacks. I wish you a good day.	/r/MensRights	05/09/19 10:12 PM
0	Saw this comment on a video of a girl repeatedly assaulting a guy who didn't fight back You literally stated they had a badge (so cop), then someone corrected you that it was a lawyer, and now you're calling them a judge. The only comment is from a public defender. You've been wrong 2/3 posts on who is speaking, and you're still insulting someone who is on your side. There is no judge mentioned, and the public defender is correctly stating that the justice system is biased against men.	/r/MensRights	05/09/19 01:30 PM
0	Saw this comment on a video of a girl repeatedly assaulting a guy who didn't fight back Maybe I'm misreading it, but it looks like she sees the sexism inherent in the "justice" system and is calling it for what it is. Pointing out something that exists doesn't mean you agree with it.	/r/MensRights	05/09/19 01:20 PM
0	Saw this comment on a video of a girl repeatedly assaulting a guy who didn't fight back Why the insult? The person writing the comment isnt necessarily female, and whoever it was was stating there isn't much equality in the criminal justice system. They're agreeing with you. Using a anti-female slur for a MRA ally isn't a good look at all.	/r/MensRights	03/09/19 03:55 PM
2	"A Wife's Gratitude" - a post on Imgur Why do you feel the need to say this? What does it gain you?	/r/MensRights	24/08/19 02:37 PM
