1	What is the rationale for men having to pay child support? "A man, however, has 100% control over whether he impregnates a sexual partner, or not." doesn't leave room for men being "raped and baby trapped". by using "100%" they are talking about all instances in which a women gets pregnant, including those instances. If they didn't mean to include those instances, I understand the mistake, but that doesn't mean they didn't include those instances in what they said. "100%" doesn't leave any wiggle room. All I want to do is point out that men, in fact, do…	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/09/17 04:04 PM
1	What is the rationale for men having to pay child support? Obviously in the case of rape it's a unilateral decision and pregnancy is a possibility. Just seems odd to focus on that. Pointing out an exception which disproves the rule isn't focusing on it, you're the one who kept going trying to find something "dumbass" about it to justify your initial reaction and dismissal of male rape victims. Um it's both people's choice in the case of an intentional or accidental pregnancy. If one person sabotages the contraceptive (e.g. poking a hole in the condom), …	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/09/17 03:17 PM
1	What is the rationale for men having to pay child support? I just want to point out that men don't have 100% control over who they impregnate, and any argument that assumes they do isn't sound. Women also being rape victims doesn't change or affect this in any way, not sure why you think it does. I'm also not sure why you're defending the traditionally sexist idea that if a women gets pregnant it's because a man decided to impregnate her (a natural consequence of men having 100% control over whether or not he impregnates someone); I thought reinforcing …	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/09/17 03:02 PM
1	What is the rationale for men having to pay child support? My entire point, from the beginning, is that men don't have 100% control over who they impregnate. I'm really not sure how you think women also being rape victims changes this or makes it moot	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/09/17 07:30 AM
1	What is the rationale for men having to pay child support? What? yes, generally, a man can wrap it up just like a woman can use BC. I don't think rapists usually ask their victims if they want to use a condom... No. If your point is men cannot ALWAYS be responsible because men can be victims of rape the same argument applies to women. So it's moot basically. Men should pay child support to their rapists because women can also be raped? I don't think women should pay child support to their rapists either, really not sure what point you're trying to make …	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/09/17 07:11 AM
1	What is the rationale for men having to pay child support? So a male victim doesn't have control, but a man has 100% control over whether he impregnates a sexual partner? Unless you're saying that male rape victims aren't real men, it's a perfectly valid counterexample to what was said. It would be like me arguing that child support is necessary because some women get raped and hence have no choice in pregnancy. How is that anything like arguing that male rape victims don't have 100% control over whether or not they impregnates their rapist?	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/09/17 06:45 AM
1	What is the rationale for men having to pay child support? What's dumbass about it? Is it not a valid counterexample to the quoted sentence?	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/09/17 06:08 AM
3	What is the rationale for men having to pay child support? A man, however, has 100% control over whether he impregnates a sexual partner, or not. So a male rape victim has 100% control over whether or not he impregnates his rapist? How does that work?	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/09/17 03:13 AM
1	Shit like this pisses me of. Okay, thanks for clearing things up for me	/r/MensRights	12/12/13 07:24 PM
2	Shit like this pisses me of. Isn't Hilditch and Key a shirt/neckwear company? Since when do they make suits?	/r/MensRights	11/12/13 11:01 PM
3	Going Dutch on Dinner You basically said: It's a pain to split bills. It's particularly a pain to split bills when the couple takes turns paying (implying only one of them is paying at a sitting).	/r/MensRights	09/10/12 08:14 PM
–	Going Dutch on Dinner You've had couples come in who would get the bill split then only one person would pay for both bills? That's just obnoxious.	/r/MensRights	09/10/12 05:43 PM
–	True Blood male rape scene not rape scene. Quick, guess why! Do you realize that none of that had anything to do with what I said? When you remove something from it's context and attack it you make it clear you aren't interested in understanding it, but desire only a target for attack. If you don't want your time wasted, you should try to actually understand something before getting so angry about it.	/r/MensRights	15/07/11 02:38 PM
–	True Blood male rape scene not rape scene. Quick, guess why! Yes, I did. Did you even bother to pay attention to the context of the rape scene with respect to the series or the context of the usage of the word comeuppance? Or did you just hear about the scene and immediately attack everyone involved? Your characterizations of both the scene and what the writer and director of the episode say about the scene are misleading and inaccurate. Your ad hominem attacks make it clear that you're not actually interested in discussion, but that you are just looking …	/r/MensRights	15/07/11 02:04 AM
–	True Blood male rape scene not rape scene. Quick, guess why! Do you have a source for this? What is serious is the way the nerds in charge of the show describe the scene as the guy getting his comeuppance.	/r/MensRights	14/07/11 08:20 PM
–	Had to register for the draft to get same educational opportunities as women... I think you're focusing on the disadvantages; you also get to shoot other people.	/r/MensRights	09/03/11 12:24 AM
–	Boys: The Second Class Citizens This "observation" the author makes is sexist. He is saying girls are docile and boys are not. That is like saying black people are aggressive and white people are not. It is not like saying that at all and that's not even what he's saying. He is not saying girls are docile and boys are not. In fact, at no point in the article does Dr.Topp call girls docile. Of course, it would appear as though I'm arguing 'for' Dr.Topp's article and you're arguing 'against' the article on the FRS. I don't agree…	/r/MensRights	20/01/11 10:23 PM
–	Boys: The Second Class Citizens It is not sexist to say that boys and girls aren't exactly the same in every way. Ignoring the effects of physiological differences between boys and girls won't do anyone any good. And I'm sure there were uppity girls and pandering boys back then too. I'm sure there were, but that doesn't mean that boys are just as "pandering" as girls or that girls are just as "uppity" as boys. Just because you could find a tall woman and a short man doesn't mean that on the whole, women and men are the same he…	/r/MensRights	20/01/11 07:32 PM
–	Boys: The Second Class Citizens Did you not notice that the article you're quoting was written nearly 50 years ago? Did you not stop to think that maybe things have changed since then?	/r/MensRights	20/01/11 06:24 PM
