-1	Man gets raped, but remember, misandry isn't real. (X-Post r/ TumblrInAction) You underestimate the power of cognitive bias and are far too trusting in thinking that most people tend to rationally resolve cognitive dissonance. The biases in play here are easily visible when one can digest information them without encountering dissonance, but are very subtle when one does encounter it. Re-evaluation of fundamental paradigm in response to contrary information is rare and difficult. This is important to remember, because when we pretend this kind of sickening bias and refusa…	/r/MensRights	27/09/13 08:27 PM
4	"Why don't women commit crime?" this is what they teach in sociology Theories are well-supported explanations. That's about as close to treating something as fact as you cant get in science.	/r/MensRights	26/06/13 04:12 PM
36	"Why don't women commit crime?" this is what they teach in sociology I am not an MRA -- I'm actually a rather liberal progressive Being a liberal progressive does not preclude you from being an MRA.	/r/MensRights	26/06/13 04:10 PM
10	"Why don't women commit crime?" this is what they teach in sociology Education is necessarily politicized.	/r/MensRights	26/06/13 04:04 PM
20	"brainwash" -- norwegian documentary examines how fields like sociology and feminist studies reject actual science because it doesn't fit with their ideology I highly doubt that statistics is the hardest form of math out there.	/r/MensRights	25/06/13 11:09 PM
1	Surprised to see this on facebook. Less surprised it was posted by my male transgendered friend. The grand majority of bathrooms exist on private property. In the absence of any contravening legislation, wouldn't that make its status as a rule or a suggestion the sole decision of the property owner?	/r/MensRights	25/06/13 12:13 AM
1	Men better not dare to define Womanhood - but of course everyone and their mother should define Manhood Strictly speaking both cases are hypocritical. No 'might be' needed.	/r/MensRights	23/06/13 10:38 AM
6	"Consent to sex is consent to fatherhood" -- arguments for and against this post is excellent at explaining why feminism has nothing to do with equality.	/r/MensRights	21/05/13 05:21 PM
10	"Consent to sex is consent to fatherhood" -- arguments for and against About as common as sexism towards men. Humans have had heavily defined gender roles for most of history. Men and women have always been limited by their defined roles.	/r/MensRights	21/05/13 04:59 PM
3	You Know You're Working In A Patriarchal Society When People Fail To Completely Agree With My Subjective Beliefs And Opinions Every word in this title is capitalized. How could you, you monster!	/r/MensRights	15/04/13 11:29 PM
5	I was raised by two radfem, anti-male protesters...and have been secretly presiding a group for MRA-supportive women for 7 years. instantly Did you actually read the post?	/r/MensRights	05/03/13 08:06 PM
1	Mindblown Dolphins aren't people because that word is almost never applied to dolphins; most people would consider an instance of "people" being applied to dolphins to be an error. Welcome to how language works. If you argue anything else, you are necessarily using the word "people" improperly. or more precisely, in a different sense than common parlance. Also, your artificial fine line is defined arbitrarily. You are implicitly assuming that there is one such thing as "consciousness", something that cann…	/r/MensRights	22/10/12 08:38 AM
2	The community of the wrongly accused asks Prof. Danielle Wozniak for an explanation The difference here is that I view having sex when you do t want to instead of just walking away as a failure on the part of the person who didn't walk away, as they were the ones being irrational. In fact, that's why treating it as rape is so insulting to the proposed victims - it implies they're incapable of rational action. I can't bring myself to defend irrationality. Also, by placing the distinguishing factor between coercion and rape in the mind of one of the parties, you've deprived the o…	/r/MensRights	19/09/12 07:41 PM
4	The community of the wrongly accused asks Prof. Danielle Wozniak for an explanation So trying to change someone's opinion on something is universally unreasonable? What does free from influence even mean? Humanity is necessarily a social animal - reasonable and unreasonable are socially defined. Decision making independent from the imposition of external social influence is neither possible nor desired. You've managed to accuse ever salesman and politician ever of unreasonable social coercion simply for attempting to turn a no into a yes (unless you have some way to limit your …	/r/MensRights	19/09/12 07:16 PM
2	Was told to post this here: I know it's not manly to complain, but I feel like my life has been taken away from myself... Heraclitus was a badass.	/r/MensRights	30/08/12 02:45 PM
0	Why MRAs Should Be Pro-Choice: If only rape victims are allowed abortions, false accusations will skyrocket. Please, enlighten me as to the exact point where sentience begins to develop. Sentience isn't defined behaviorally and communication of sufficient fidelity with infants is impossible for some years. This leaves me very confused as to the evidential basis of your belief that infants are sentient. So if infanticide is defined as killing a sentient being then killing infants can't be called infanticide with any degree of certainty because we have no method whatsoever to determine sentience. Similar…	/r/MensRights	29/08/12 04:21 AM
5	Why MRAs Should Be Pro-Choice: If only rape victims are allowed abortions, false accusations will skyrocket. Incorrect. "Innocent until proven guilty" applies to criminal cases only. In civil cases the standard is "preponderance of evidence". A lawsuit for damages caused by a false accusation of rape would be a civil case, and thus have far more lenient standards of conviction.	/r/MensRights	29/08/12 03:27 AM
14	My Rape and Sexual Violence university course doing it right - an entire week devoted entirely to sexual violence against males. No that would be ridiculous. Only women are raped in cases of mutual drunk sex (clearly the idea of "mutual rape" makes no sense). So you see, you were raped and probably have suppressed the trauma.	/r/MensRights	03/08/12 05:49 PM
6	15-year old girl who took offense at the suggestion her ailing/aging dog should be euthanized ruins a man's life a la Sex Offender Registry Roulette He pled no contest, not guilty	/r/MensRights	02/08/12 05:01 AM
0	This is how /r/feminism responds to people who may disagree with them. This was the top comment. Wow. Thats a terrible generalization of philosophy. It notably has an extreme focus on formal logical systems and covers far far more than ethical questions. Science in part relies on portions of philosophy, mainly epistemology.	/r/MensRights	24/07/12 05:45 PM
