8	Paid Menstrual Leave OK. I don't really understand or agree with a leftist perspective that sees a common workplace benefit (paid time off) as a bad thing, if we had anything resembling decent worker rights or were constructing a better system from the ground up I think your reasoning would make a lot of sense but as things stand right now - more PTO for workers (or better yet: fewer work days) just makes sense to me. In any event, whatever your specific views on PTO are, I think a proper leftist response to a chang…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	12/05/22 05:26 PM
4	Paid Menstrual Leave I think it looks the way you interpreted it because we're used to the conservative way of complaining about others getting nice things, where you want the nice things taken away rather than provided to everyone. Well we certainly agree that this is an unproductive approach!	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	12/05/22 04:07 PM
5	Paid Menstrual Leave I was responding to rattlesnake_suitcase and it's not particularly clear whether they believe it's entirely about the "discrimination" aspect or not. (I'm sure others only believe the discriminatory aspect is worth objecting to, that's fine, but not particularly relevent to my reply.) The fact that they contrasted this policy with their own PTO leads me to think they believe it is too generous, but of course anyone can interpret it their own way.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	12/05/22 03:54 PM
13	Paid Menstrual Leave Given this community is founded on left wing beliefs, shouldn't the takeaway here be that your PTO policy is insufficient rather than that a policy somewhere else is too generous?	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	12/05/22 01:57 PM
9	What happened to diversity and acceptance? Is that no longer a leftist ideal? Why can't we accept men for who they are? It's effective in about 1/6 of the total ridings in Ontario. 1984	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	23/02/22 06:07 PM
3	Why it is not just cruel, but outright dangerous to humiliate imbalanced men. Wouldn’t that, by definition, require them to accept responsibility for a role in (creating the conditions for) those acts of violence?	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	21/09/21 07:28 PM
-7	Why it is not just cruel, but outright dangerous to humiliate imbalanced men. You said you find it worrying that when someone kills a bunch of women and their reaction is not to examine their own behaviour. I assumed you meant their behaviour in relation to these "acts of violence," let me know if I'm wrong on that.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	21/09/21 06:46 PM
-8	Why it is not just cruel, but outright dangerous to humiliate imbalanced men. Therefore it's worrying that some women don't just see no problem in humiliating men like that, especially online, they make an outright hobby of it. And every time an act of violence happens, they see it as proof of patriarchy and toxic masculinity instead of looking at their own behavior. I cannot believe I am typing this, but - a hate crime is not an act of dialogue. A mass killing is not an invitation for the targets to introspect.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	21/09/21 06:07 PM
-4	Do you think the average woman thinks of men as being people too? Do... do you read? Have you not had your conception of what humans are, or what it means to live, broadened by reading a work of fiction? IF fiction can give us any understanding of life and people, then it is almost undoubtable that it gives us a better understanding of men than women, being mostly written by, for, and about men. And not all fiction is about ubermen, or paragons of virtue, or whatever else the apex fallacy would apply to. Honestly I can't really read your comment without thinki…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	02/09/20 08:59 PM
