1	You know you're a MGTOW when _____ "Women as [they] truly look" appear to be normal humans. Shocking.	/r/MGTOW	24/11/15 05:00 AM
1	Alleged "gender-based" treatment "This is exactly what I'm saying. You prioritize violence against women because you believe it is categorically worse due to 'history and context.'" I said that it was categorically DIFFERENT because of history and culture, not necessarily worse for women in every individual case no matter what, ever. That is your straw man talking, not me. "First of all, I've said nothing about denying history and context." No, but you don't have to. You just ignore social factors and pretend that IPV exists is…	/r/MensRights	04/04/12 01:45 PM
1	Alleged "gender-based" treatment "I'm taking issue with the idea that violence A is more important then violence B." Except no one actually thinks violence A is "more important" than violence B. This is a construct of your imagination. They just recognize the difference between violence A and B and advocate accordingly. In other words, they are doing exactly what any rational advocate would. "You believe violence against women is more important then violence against men. " Where did I say that? Here's a hint: I didn't. In fact,…	/r/MensRights	28/03/12 06:51 AM
1	Alleged "gender-based" treatment "As far as I'm concerned violence is violence. Understanding the dynamics behind why violence happens is fine; assuming that violence is somehow worse when directed at particular groups is not." Actually, you aren't following the argument. Understanding why some people are targets of particular kinds of violence is an integral part of understanding the dynamics of violence. By arguing that it isn't relevant, and violence is just violence, you are actually undermining victim advocacy for both men…	/r/MensRights	28/03/12 02:20 AM
1	Alleged "gender-based" treatment "But these advocates say that violence against women is categorically different then violence against men, violence against women constitutes 'systemic gendered violence', is 'patriarchal control' and is less acceptable then violence against men." Well, sometimes it is and it historically has been. By denying that you aren't equalizing the playing field for male victims, you're just denying reality for ideological reasons. If you criticize other people for this, you should avoid doing it yoursel…	/r/MensRights	27/03/12 10:05 PM
1	Alleged "gender-based" treatment I didn't conflate them. But even if I had, domestic violence against women would also probably have different different causes, different solutions, and different social aspects. Male victims are going to have different circumstances and possibly different needs than female victims. Refusing to recognize that isn't going to help male victims. Downplaying female victims isn't going to help them either.	/r/MensRights	27/03/12 09:04 PM
1	Alleged "gender-based" treatment "Further the 'end violence against women' campaigns presuppose that violence against women is a special category of violence, separate from violence against men. They even say so in their materials. It's not just that they want to end violence against women, it's that they see it as categorically different then violence against men(which is more acceptable.)" Why shouldn't they? Domestic violence is a different problem than say, armed robbery or gang violence. They all have different causes, dif…	/r/MensRights	27/03/12 01:23 AM
1	A word about "safe spaces" for feminists and MRA's You aren't even a man, if we are to believe your name. How would you know this? Much less what they talk about when they pee? Go to any bar in America on Sunday during football season. Or go to any middle management meeting Monday-Friday during business hours. Or maybe get some male friends. You are probably too young to remember this and too stupid to care, but: Blacks and Irish and women need not apply. Except they never needed to actually write down "Blacks" (and I use those quotes loosely) o…	/r/MensRights	03/02/12 05:20 AM
