I feel you're tiredness, friend. I genuinely do not understand when people try to say "Well, women have it worse!" Who cares? Modern day slavery, whether it's labor, sex trafficking, etc, should be stopped, period. Same goes for things like domestic violence, rape, sexual objectification in society/media, and the list goes on. Taken from that holistic perspective, stopping it is stopping it, and in a sense it doesn't necessarily matter whether it impacts women or men more. As an aside, I persona…

Hello there, friend! I read everything you wrote, but I do appreciate thinking out loud, as it were, if only to yourself. Thank you so much for explaining the Canadian political system to me! Now it totally makes sense where, in a way, you do have to vote more along party lines than for an individual. So, my original comment is completely useless! ;) "I don’t want rapists to get slaps on the wrist and I don’t want women to grow up with body / self esteem issues.." The sad thing is men deal with …

I have seen this as well! If it weren't so frustrating to my hippie pipe dream that one day men and women will be genuinely equal, it would be quite interesting to consider how feminism is manifested on both sides of the fence.

And at least here in the United States, feminism is so entrenched in leftist politics / ideology that you can barely have a discussion about most leftist issues without at least some kind of feminist or intersectional underpinning.

Hello there, friend ! For context, I'm an American (and a millennial, for whatever that's worth), but I thought this might be of interest to you: I grew up in a staunchly leftist household, and voted left for the early part of my adult life. Then the Democratic Party got a little too extreme for me, so I reassessed my values. I swung a little center-right, and voted right for a few election cycles, too, although I'm not a fan of the Republican Party, either. Ultimately, the thing that's helped m…

Oooh, fascinating questions, friend! I don't know if I have a lot to contribute on this subject; I'm autistic and was physically / sexually abused by my mother, so I don't personally engage much on the social front, and often feel more uncomfortable around women than men (but frankly I feel some degree of discomfort around everybody lol). Insofar as friendships with women vs. men are concerned, I'm an Equal Opportunity Seeker, inasmuch as I can be; my discomfort with women because of my childhoo…

Absolutely! I didn't mean that all self-sacrifice is bad; it can absolutely be good. Plenty of women self-sacrifice as well, so in-and-of-itself, it's not strictly a "male" thing, IMHO. However, the social structures and expectations of men regarding self-sacrifice can be really toxic, which is why I questioned how it could be a positive (without caveats, in any case). Since I mentioned the societal expectations, and you mentioned permissive structures / manufactured consent, I think we're funda…

I'm a gay man, and although there is a ton I severely dislike about modern Western gay culture, most of the kindest, sweetest, most emotionally-available people I have ever known have been other gay men. I particularly appreciate that gay men are comfortable, and "allowed," to show platonic physical affection. (I know that this is largely cultural: there are plenty of other cultures where straight men can be physically affectionate with each other, and that's perfectly acceptable / doesn't mean …

"the notion of self-sacrifice, for the children, family, society and world" A lot of men self-sacrifice to death, and this societal expectation largely perpetuates the idea that men and their needs simply do not matter. I'm frankly not quite sure how this is a positive?

I'm genuinely not sure how I was being passive aggressive. I asked a direct question? For whatever it's worth, I'm l autistic and may not be communicating what I'm hoping to communicate appropriately. I would appreciate it if that was borne in mind.

Thanks for your comment, friend. I'm unsure where the "be more like a chick" comment came from? I think men, whether biological or transsexual, should be men. (That said, I do not hold with gender stereotypes of any kind; there are many kinds of men.)

Perfect--thank you for confirming this. (The Federalist article in the post I cited does nothing but bash transsexual men, as did a few of the comments at the time that I perused the post. I was therefore concerned that trans men were not welcome here, since members are posting this kind of material. If transsexual men are welcome in this sub, it may be worth tacking on a rule which posits that discussion and differing perspectives on trans issues [specifically transsexual men] are good, but out…

OP, I have to wonder what your point was in posting this--unless it was to invite the bashing of trans men. The article in question is incredibly transphobic. To quote, for the NYT, "it’s [Father's Day] a day to run propaganda for mentally ill women who think they become dads by removing female body parts and growing facial hair." Transsexual dads are dads. The NYT op-ed in question was written for Father's Day. Many biologically male dads aren't the fathers of their children (infertility and ad…

Deliciously said, friend! Your thoughts are mine exactly. I see that the post I cited has gotten a bit more traction since I saw it this AM. Back then, most of the comments (now largely downvoted) were just straight up bashing transsexual men, per the Federalist article which was cited (and which includes passages such as the following: "[The New York Times claims Father's day is] a day to run propaganda for mentally ill women who think they become dads by removing female body parts and growing …

These are fascinating articles! Thanks so much for your comment, friend! Perhaps I just had the bad luck to come upon a particularly, uh, spiky post where everyone was freaking out about trans dads ("women") replacing "real" dads (smh). From that, it didn't seem like trans men would be welcome here; I'm very glad to see that's not the case (granting that some will disagree).

I apologize if my original meaning was not clear! I've tried to update my post to clarify. I meant literally participate in this subreddit without fear of being ostracized in the event that he discloses his transition (i.e. "Having lived as both a woman and a man, here's what I've learned about society). The post / article and comments that I linked contained a fair amount of anti-trans rhetoric. Therefore, I got to wondering whether transsexual men were welcome here or not. (Like how TERFs will…

I guess I don't understand why you're bringing these points up in relation to transsexual men participating in the men's rights movement. Yes, it's true they may have some protections against things like the draft, but what if they also oppose the draft for biological men? That's like saying women shouldn't participate in this subreddit because, at least in the United States, they can't be drafted. But I don't hear anybody saying that women can't participate here.

Entirely fair points! As for presumptions. My apologies! Your use of "you" in response to my post led me to thinking that you were making assumptions about me. Sorry; I've got a very fuzzy autism brain and picking up on nuance in a textual conversation is not my strong suit.
/r/MensRights23/06/26 01:25 PM

Most transsexual men update all of their legal documents to read "male," so unless they disclose their transition, the legal systems (and insurance, etc) assume they are male. With the exception of the draft, which is handled differently depending on the country. Incidentally, there are plenty of male draft dodgers and transsexual men who do register, in the case of the United States, with the Selective Service. It is both reasonable and dangerous to paint with broad brush strokes.

Thank you so much for chipping in, friend! My concerns come not for myself, but simply because I do not wish to participate in a subreddit which is anti-trans, in principle. I find it very interesting how everybody is assuming that I'm trans. ;)

I'm not a fan of modern feminism; I firmly believe that ideology has done so much harm to women and men. Incidentally, I never said I was trans. I simply asked if transsexual men were welcome here, because I personally do not wish to participate in a subreddit which is anti-trans, on principal. Thanks so much for your thoughts, friend! I do appreciate it.

Simply engage with the community. Not mixing in trans rights. But if a trans man, in making a larger point about men's rights, were to disclose his transition, my fear given some of the other comments that I've seen on the post I cited, would be that he would be ostracized.

Thank you for your thoughts, friend! As for the draft system, what about men with disabilities which prevent them from meeting the physical or mental requirements? Are they less men? Also, it's very interesting how you're assuming that I'm trans because I simply asked if transsexual men were welcome here.

"resting on one drugged and coerced man" It sounds like you're forgetting that Grace wasn't alone. Yao and Ilyukhina went as well; they just didn't survive the trip. It was never intended that Grace be the only one to shoulder the whole mission, although he was the only science expert. (Yao was captain and Ilyukhina was the engineer.)

Management wasn't incompetent, though. Strictly speaking, DuBois and Shapiro weren't even supposed to be doing what they were doing (DuBois was running an extremely fringe experiment scenario; Shapiro decided to help out because [at least in-book] they have a massive thing for each other). And the lab tech / whoever who gave DuBois a microgram rather than a nanogram of astrophage to experiment with (hence the explosion) made a legitimate human mistake. Again--not a "This was shitty (read: female…

As a CSA survivor and a gay man who is frankly exhausted with our hypersexual culture, I wholeheartedly agree with your concerns. I live in the United States, so the law itself won't impact me, but the implications are disturbing. For what do you need to ask consent, and do you need to continue asking consent? Like at what point can you assume that everybody is happy in the situation and matters can proceed? And the other thing is, frankly, people need to grow a spine. For example, once a guy ki…

Frankly, sheer luck in my experience. I see a lot of people citing politics and that's fine, But ultimately every person you meet is an individual human being and more than where they fall on the political spectrum. I've known left-leaning women who are pro men's rights. I've known conservative women who are staunchly feminist and regressive when it comes to men's rights, in that they perpetuate some outdated stereotypes of men and what it means to be a man. If you don't put in 80 hours a week, …

Not only that, but male survivors of female perpetrated domestic violence or sexual abuse are not afforded the "luxury" of being misogynist (if even that) due to trauma. Meanwhile, women who have been raped or abused by a man are perfectly free to be as misandrist as they want, for the rest of their lives, and society not only tolerates it but encourages it and calls her a "strong woman." Certainly not all women are like that, but it's an incredibly human response to demonize people who remind y…

As a blind, autistic gay man, it hurts my heart that kids with disabilities rank lower on the priority list than LGBT kids, plus girls. I'm sorry, but kids with disabilities, in my opinion, should generally get top priority because they often literally need more help and support than everybody else. Of course, every child's support needs are going to be different, but you cannot tell me that a child who's blind, has autism, ADHD, dyslexia, is in a wheelchair, etc, requires less support or consid…

I'm a survivor of female and male perpetrated child sexual abuse, and none of the so-called "trusted adults" believed me when I tried to tell them about imy mother. On the flip side, my mother, the abuser, who was ultra feminist, didn't believe me about my great uncle. Go figure. Personally, I believe that women commit (child and adult) sexual assault and domestic abuse at the same rate as men. However, it's largely unreported by the victim, for a variety of reasons. If the victim is a girl, she…

"i just treat every social interaction with a woman (be at work or at a supermarket) as professional and non personal as I can and i keep my distance physically also just in case they wanna "try" something ... cant be too careful...." As a legally blind, "obviously" gay man, who is very socially awkward and probably on the spectrum, and a survivor of female perpetrated abuse . . . Interactions with women still make me very nervous. If a woman accuses me, what can I say? Would anybody believe me?…

I really hate how issues of rape and domestic violence are even gendered. Not only does this mean that a large chunk of the population believes all women who claim to be raped or abused by men, simply because they're women, but it also means that male survivors in general, and all survivors of female perpetrated abuse and rape, struggle for any kind of support, credence or justice. (I often wonder what survivors of abuse in lesbian relationships are supposed to do. For example, male survivors of…

As a gay old-school transsexual man (female to male), I think there are two problems: 1) From the T side of things, there is, in my fluffy opinion, the ridiculous expansion of the definition of transgender. It used to mean you were born male and transitioned to female, or vice versa. That's it. Black and white. Now being trans can mean whatever the fuck you want it to mean. And this has resulted in mostly women frankly pretending to be trans, which by extension means they think they can now ente…

I noticed a lot of the examples you gave lean to the left. On the flip side, male conservative politicians ignore the issues because they generally subscribe to the "Man up / shut up and deal with it" worldview. To them, men are not "supposed" to have mental health issues. We are not supposed to cry, need help, need positive human contact (including a platonic touch, such as a hug). We are expected to sacrifice, to "provide;" until we drop dead, for one reason or another . . . Even if we're sing…
