| 20 | Men aren't actually 'allowed' to be angryI don't want to be that person who brings in Love Island - but after watching an episode I was thinking the same thing. A black man has just been evicted from the island, and he was a pretty reactive person and maybe not as emotionally mature as the other contestants, and would be rude in his reactions. But a lot of the comments around him where that he had anger problems. For me, anger problems would be: throwing things, shouting, anger would be out of proportion to the problem - and he did non… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 13/06/26 10:19 AM |
| 1 | What are some blunt statements you yearn to tell fear narrative misandrists?Answered in good faith: - In a free society, the burden of fear rests on the fearful to adapt - don't agree, fear can be a rational reaction to a threat. burden should rest on society to reduce the threat. If you mean irrational fears only then I think I agree (but then we would have to agree on what counts as an irrational fear) - Getting over statistically irrational fears benefits everyone, including yourself - agree - Choosing to inconvenience yourself out of precaution based on your comfort… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 25/05/26 11:09 AM |
| 2 | Women should only be allowed to vote if they..I guess we're both consistent then with our arguments, men voting on abortion makes me nervous that they would vote to ban it, but because I value democracy I still want them to have that vote. And you think only women should vote on abortion, so people should only be able to vote if it majorly affects them. And I'd love financial experts making the decisions, but I think I want to vote in the people that select the financial experts | /r/MensRights | 29/08/25 10:31 PM |
| 2 | Women should only be allowed to vote if they..I agree that subject experts should play a higher role in voting, and that people who have never worked in a sector but can make major decisions on it is laughable! But I think there are still issues with splitting votes into categories, e.g. abortion could be countrywide but you would have only men voting on it. I think democracy is one of the things that should be ringfenced as untouchable, it would be scary to have it as something that is open to interpretation. I'm sure if you were a woman t… | /r/MensRights | 29/08/25 06:01 PM |
| 1 | Women should only be allowed to vote if they..Clarification question: in your argument, can disabled people who can't be drafted vote? | /r/MensRights | 29/08/25 05:11 PM |
| 0 | "Men are socialized to act like they need sex/see women as objects." That was literally the opposite of my upbringing. What was yours?It's really annoying that this got downvoted! I get it if it's because as left wing advocates, you don't want to relate to this at all, but this is true for a lot of people. I know that modern feminism demands perfection and it seems like to you have to be perfect in order to have an opinion or you can be cast aside, but that's not how humans work and we need to argue against moral perfection. This is just nature/nurture - we would all show poor behaviour if we were brought up around poor behavi… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/08/25 05:38 PM |
| 28 | "If men suffer in silence, why do I keep hearing about it then?"It's absolutely grim and shows no empathy. I don't take it as a point that should be engaged with, I just see it as someone bring clear about the fact they don't care about other humans. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 26/04/25 11:30 AM |
| 6 | I feel like women aren't interested in relationships and are just as happy as singleYes all parents hide stress from their children and don't let their children know how much they are upsetting them. I just mean there is a ingrained societal expectation for good men to make the main decisions for the family, be the main breadwinner to provide a certain lifestyle and to make space for any upset emotions in the family without sharing their own and I think that must be very stressful. I'm not saying it's more stressful than the woman's role or that there is no stress to a woman's … | /r/ExRedPill | 02/02/25 10:39 AM |
| 18 | I feel like women aren't interested in relationships and are just as happy as singleI agree with the person that has already replied, that understanding and recognising emotions are necessary if you want to be in a relationship and live in a society and if men are brought up to repress emotions then the woman will have to do a lot of emotional labour to balance it out. However I do think there is a lot of emotional labour that men also do in the way that you described. Maybe labour isn't the right word. Maybe holding the emotional burden? E.g. We moved away when I was little an… | /r/ExRedPill | 01/02/25 11:24 PM |
| 0 | Isn't it unfair that men have no choice in parenthood, while women do?I agree that it is unfair but what do you have in mind to solve it? That a man should be able to opt out at any time? Wouldn't that lead to everyone paying for the child through their taxes, instead of an individual man for his own child? Only thing I can think of at the moment that is practical is that child support should be a set amount depending on the living costs of the area rather than a percentage of the parent's earning (so for a man earning millions, it would be a tiny amount compared … | /r/MensRights | 31/01/25 11:30 PM |
| 5 | Misandry sucks and it's making me feel really bitterInteresting. So if you're taking part you're a pawn. Thank you | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/12/24 11:55 AM |
| 3 | Misandry sucks and it's making me feel really bitterI want names and addresses 😂 | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/12/24 11:49 AM |
| 5 | Misandry sucks and it's making me feel really bitterCan I ask who is 'they'? Is it just the general people in power doing divide and conquer? To avoid people focusing on class? I've only just started thinking like this and don't want to come off a conspiracist. I know Russian-backed social media was used to seed division between people during the American election, is that related? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/12/24 09:19 AM |
| 7 | We don't talk enough about the radicalization of young womenAgh I would love this 😞 | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 08/11/24 05:53 PM |
| 12 | We don't talk enough about the radicalization of young womenAgreed. During the election I was googling the January 6th events and they talked about Trump's speech and how a lot of the language 'was borrowed from combat or war'. I think peacefully was mentioned once. My tiktok's algorithm lends fowards feminism and lots of radfem stuff shows up to. I see a lot of similar language used in these tiktoks (billie eilish: 'war on women'), along with pictures of women in protest and looking powerful with dramatic music playing. I used to save these tiktoks and … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 08/11/24 05:47 PM |
| 18 | Trump won the 2024 election. Your thoughts?I don't take glee in it if it makes abortions more difficult to access, but I do see the cause and effect. Like OP, I hope it's a wake up call. But if it is, it's a shame that the left are going to be more welcoming to men just because they've realised they seriously affect voting results, rather than just because we should care about men in general | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/11/24 10:08 PM |
| 29 | Trump won the 2024 election. Your thoughts?As a feminist, for the last bit I fully hear you! 👏👏 You phrased it well | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/11/24 08:55 PM |
| 11 | Both male feminists and conservatives are terrible at addressing men issues.I agree, it would be nice for this sub to have much more influence. I'm hoping that pendulum will shift from the current outrage, and people will get tired of it and start to look for more reasonable takes 🤞🤞 And agree that it's annoying when modern feminism is claimed to be for men too, it doesn't shine an encouraging or positive light on men at all. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/10/24 07:41 PM |
| 16 | Sexual violence is abhorrent. But has the fear of it been manipulated to keep female readers coming back? Has the fear become disproportionate to the actual threat?I agree that everyone has a duty to avoid going down the rabbit hole of fear! With social media and the way humans naturally are tribal and prepositioned to make other people 'the others', we need to consciously resist it and keep our feet planted firmly in reality. I told my boyfriend this because he is autistic and gets into 'us and them' mindset really easily, but then found myself saving tiktoks about rape statistics and really emotional language and music - so realised I had to follow my ow… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 12/05/24 03:55 PM |
| 3 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?Yes, I feel like it is a worthy discussion point that has ultimately been used as an excuse to hate, with loads of exaggeration thrown in. I would avoid both situations for safety, but if I saw a bear I would think I was definitely going to die. Either way it isn't an excuse to pile on without really considering the realities. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/05/24 12:19 PM |
| 3 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?I agree, I don't think there would be much clarity with feminism if it took all of men's problems under it's wing as well. But ideally the women's and men's movement would interact positively with each other, and neither should ever impede the other, which is what I think we are seeing a lot of today. I'd definitely support a resurgance in egalitarianism, if we can't get a proper grip of feminism and men's rights | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/05/24 10:26 AM |
| 5 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?Yes, that's when I realised I had to stop saying 'yes but they aren't proper feminists'. If that is everyone's experience of it then it is what it is! And I know what you mean, every comment I've left here I feel like I have been a raging Pick Me. But I know I'm not, it is because I feel like this current online feminism is doing women a disservice. Reasonable critiques are thrown out of the window, so people feel irritated and become more extreme, men are hated and feel that hate, what is the p… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/05/24 10:16 AM |
| 12 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?Yes, I feel like all levels of engagement with feminism should be positively encouraged, rather than 'you should have been doing this anyway'. We know that when it comes to behavioural changes, shame is incredibly ineffective and pushes people the other way. I'm hoping that people are going to become less tribal and hopefully start to mend bridges that have been burnt in the last few years! | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/05/24 10:52 PM |
| 8 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?Gender abolitionist is actually a really good way of putting it. Because I read that radical feminism sees gender as a construct to be dismantled and I thought great! But then followed radical feminist pages and thought they were so inflammatory. I'm going to look more into that. And I agree, I genuinely don't know how to point out the issues that I see, and that's how I realised there is no room for this discussion - so it is easiest to go along with it when it is so dominant | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/05/24 10:40 PM |
| 12 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?Yes. It seems to me that one of the main tenets of this group is reasonableness. You can argue so much more easily when that is the case | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/05/24 08:50 PM |
| 22 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?Yeah, the level of hypocrisy is huge! I used to think that women that asked for these things while not wanting gender roles for themselves weren't proper feminists, but I've realised that is a cop out and it is a problem. I don't think I would follow a movement that said 'all your issues are your own doing so sort it out'. I understand where they are coming from when they say 'it's not our problem' (but disagree with it) but for them to add to the problem is totally immoral | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/05/24 08:45 PM |
| 15 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?Agreed! There isn't much empathy or fairness in the majority of things I see | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/05/24 08:30 PM |
| 12 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?I don't know where I fit in atm! I just like debates so have to do a bit of research to back myself up, and I approach it like I could be reborn with an equal chance of being a woman or a man, and what changes do I want to make to the world before I'm born | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/05/24 08:27 PM |
| 17 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?Agreed! It's really un-critique-able at the moment and I think people naturally hate not being able to point out when they see untruths and hypocrisy. It is needed, so I want it to be really robust and well thought out, and yes problematic issues addressed! | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/05/24 08:25 PM |
| 21 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?I imagine so! And to be honest I find it difficult because I feel like I'm a feminist by definition (to quote OP), but I've started to just become aware of what I'm connecting myself to. At the moment I try to get round it by asking anti-feminists what they actually think, and often find that we agree | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/05/24 08:22 PM |
| 17 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?Thank you, I'm trying to infiltrate my groups so should gain momentum in 40 years :') | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/05/24 08:16 PM |
| 30 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?Agreed! I think in the past year I've tried to absorb all that messaging as if I was a man, things like 'we don't need men anymore' and honestly I wouldn't want to engage with it anymore. I don't see why men should have to listen to it in order to support women! | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/05/24 08:13 PM |
| 83 | Do any other “non-masculine” men also struggle with a lack of acceptance?I'm a feminist and I'm so annoyed with the direction that feminism has taken. I really don't understand how we can be against gender roles for women but not have anything to say on the recent widespread trend of expecting men to be masculine and be a 'provider'. I want it to be: you are born, you can be who you are aslong as it is pro-social. I used to say feminism was equality for everyone but don't think I can call it that any more. Now I say I'm a feminist because I advocate for women (and it… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/05/24 07:42 PM |
