It's been said here before, but I firmly believe that the education system is rigged in favor of girls. Well, at least up to and including high school. That was my experience, but things were far more equal at university in my STEM major. I went to a large university, so you essentially become your student number.

That's interesting. I married a non-virgin with about $30K in debt and several tattoos. She's the greatest woman I've ever met, happily married after 6 years. Debt, tattoos and virginity have no real correlation on a person's character. It's my contention that a debt-free untattooed virgin is equally likely to be a good person as anyone else.

I'd just shrug my shoulders If two men were involved. As a man of short stature I learned a long time ago that picking a fight with someone bigger than me is a very bad idea. To protect myself I spent many years training in jiu-jitsu and kickboxing when I was in my teens and early 20's. Luckily, I've never had to use it. If anything, it taught me to control adrenaline and walk away from physical conflict... Women are now taught that men don't and won't hit them. This gives them a free pass to ac…

Thank-you so much for sharing. For what it's worth, what hasn't knocked you down has made you stronger. Standing up (literally) and actively going to the gym no doubt delayed the onset or severity of your condition. That's something to be proud of. Seeing the other side does sting quite a bit though, doesn't it? Being coddled her whole life, this woman has never experienced the adversity you have. I will say this, though: the women that mock the way you walk or that you couldn't dance don't dese…

Feels before reals, right? I was a math wiz in high school, top 10% of my classes. Entering university was a lesson in humility. Studying an hour a night no longer got me straight A's. Far from it.... Fudging the grades won't help either. Math and science are difficult, because we want competent people to build bridges, airplane wings and car airbags.

I found out at some point in my freshman year that effort doesn't equal good grades in STEM. It was a valuable lesson; 20 years later I still see that effort doesn't equal results or success in the working world either. Countless articles have showed that girls are graded higher than boys in high school. When you've lived a life of privilege, equality sure feels like oppression, doesn't it?

I have to be honest, I'd never considered this very crucial aspect of putting false accusers on the registry/in jail... they'd never recant their stories if faced with real consequences. I for one think there should be a sweet spot between "charged with wasting police time" and "just as bad as rape: 10 years in jail + sex offender registry" Unfortunately, I see little hope in seeing consistent justice for false accusations. For all the talk of men holding all the power, a single accusation can r…

I made the right choice when faced with this exact dilemma many years ago. The best and only thing to do is run and never look back. Don't fight back; you will end up in jail. In my case I could have fought back "In self defense". But police don't usually see it this way. Had I not turned around and walked away I'd probably have a criminal record right now. All because my girlfriend at the time accused me of checking out another girl at the bar. She got violent, I just walked away. Damn, I reall…

I wish I knew this much, much younger. I didn't fully understand/learn this until my late 20s. I'd spent my life acting like a doormat, upset with the outcome. So much cringe in my teen years..... I went full MGTOW for several years, vowing to be single for life. It's not that I lost respect for women, quite the opposite actually. I learned to respect and value myself. It had the unintended consequence of making me way more attractive to women.

I shared a small office with two women for several years earlier on in my career. I still can't get over the filth that came out of their mouths. Here's the thing though...

As if things weren't wacky enough, mind-reading is a required skill to avoid rape charges. The trickiest part is being able to read someone's future thoughts as well, since we now know that regret = rape. Well, for women at least. By that standard, I've been "raped" at least once. I gave non-verbal cues, but I didn't explicitly say no. She went ahead and had sex with me anyway. I regretted it immediately after and the next day. We parted company and life went on. That wasn't rape, or assault. It…

Call the police ASAP, what she did is kidnapping. I know that a notarized document is needed if a parent wants to travel out of country, not sure if that applies when crossing state/provincial lines. Bottom line - a parent can't take the kids away without the other parent's consent, unless a court ordered visitation/custody arrangement is in place. Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer.

This is the correct answer, for many reasons. In my younger years I was naïve enough to date a women's studies major. Would you be surprised if I told you she was the most abusive, vindictive person I've ever met? In fact, the only truly abusive relationship I've ever had; it taught me a lot. Long story short: her emotionl abuse turned physical one fateful night. She hit me in the face, pretty damned hard. I came incredibly close to hitting back.

Ironically, dress codes in the professional world provide far more latitude towards women. Privilege and oppression by air conditioning? Try wearing a suit and tie for 12 hours a day and see how you feel. Men: shirt and tie, pants, shoes. Sometimes a jacket or sweater. Women: skirts, dresses, sandals, shorts, etc. School's one thing, but the game changes when entering the working world.

What blows my mind is the perception that this phenomena is a relatively new issue. I assure you, it isn't. I had a very similar experience during a design competition, part of a 2nd year mechanical engineering course. The faculty clearly wanted an all-women team to win, and they did. The level of absurdity was so blatant that my classmates still discuss it to this day. This went down 20 years ago.

I've seen this first hand far too many times. Women seem to be especially toxic to one another when working in an environment that lacks gender diversity. The most toxic work environments I've seen are ones made up entirely of women, including management. The petty grudges, insults, cliques and backstabbing in those cases completely eclipse the bad behaviour done by men. It boggles my mind that toxic femininity isn't a "thing", because it's definitely alive and well in the working world..

To me it shows "traditional gender roles". Men go out and work. Women manage the home. I don't think women in that town are fighting to work the sulphur fields. Likewise, the men are happy to return to a meal after work. I'm not saying that's good or bad, it just is. Western society isn't like that anymore, at least for the most part and moreso in the younger generation.

Yes, I cringed when I read "alt-right". I'm about as far from right, or alt-right; but I'll give the author a break.

I was on the receiving end of an abusive relationship. It was non-reciprocal emotional and occasionally physical abuse. Luckily I had the sense to get out after about 6 months. We were having an argument outside a bar and she punched me hard in the face. Foe the first time I really wanted to hit back, though I knew I'd likely knock her out cold and wind up in jail.

I think if the experiment was repeated today the outcome would be very much the same.

If anything, it's the culture surrounding women that's changed, not men. We're now in the toxic masculinity, ultra-patriarchy #meetoo era.

As soon as you wrote "Some of my favourite film characters are women," I thought the Aliens franchise. It's the case where a "hero" is made by their actions, not forced on the audience in an overt, politically motivated choice.

One need look no further than the average Canadian office. Our clerical and administrative staff are 100% women. There are no programs to get men in these departments, doing jobs with decent wages and excellent health benefits. There are, however, massive programs and incentives to attract women into technical roles and management -- regardless of merit. The federal budget mirrors what's already going on in the country.

I'll come out with a contrasting opinion: I enjoy mentoring women (and men). I'm careful about what I say and how we interact.

This is why on-campus violent crime should be handled by the police, not the administration. The school asked him to destroy the only piece of exculpatory evidence, which he'd legally obtained. If handled by police it would be taken into evidence. Legal arguments could be made as to whether it's admissible, but you can't destroy it at step 1 of the process! The US has a legal process to handle this; why is there a special system with special rules in place? Yet again, another example of just how…

I find strength and pride in the fact this sub doesn't ban people for dissenting views, unlike TwoX, etc... what you've posted is misogyny, and it doesn't have a place here. Call out women's bullshit? Fuck yes. Call out actual inequalities? That's the MRAs work. But saying men are superior and women suck? That's neither constructive nor conducive to moving our cause forward. You won't get banned, but you will get downvoted to oblivion; and rightly so.

The CBC ran a story about this on the evening news. It cut to a segment on respecting women and violence against women. That's when I changed the channel. No mention of potential male victims or female aggressors. In a time where school teachers are constantly getting caught committing statutory rape against their students, only to have it appear in the news as another "sex romp". As a victim of harassment I was laughed out of the HR office. A woman would have been coddled and the male aggressor…

If regret sex really was rape, that would mean I was raped twice and raped at least one woman. Instead, we all went our separate ways, like adults. This "dilution" of actual rape upsets me, especially for the actual victims of forced, unwanted sex. Not to mention that if the definition keeps getting broader, everyone will be both a rapist and a victim. Except women, because they can't rape men. /s.

"When we look at gender dynamics, men are applauded for their role in the development of modern society and the fact that women were never allowed to pursue similar activities is conveniently ignored." I've worked as an engineer for 17 years now. Women were openly encouraged to enter into engineering in the 1990's, though I admit it wasn't like that earlier in the 20th century. My point is that women have been encouraged to pursue STEM for a generation, yet feminism continues to spew the same rh…

With numbers that close, one could almost argue that rape isn't a gendered issue. Based on your math, women rape at roughly the same rate as men. We don't need to tell boys not to hurt/rape women. We need to tell young humans not to rape/hurt other humans, without laying blame or twisting facts to support a political agenda. Right now young girls are usually taught that only men can be aggressors. This inadvertently allows women to justify their violent acts against men, since they can't rape me…

The problem is that the wealthy land owners were men. This allowed feminists to paint it as a product of the Patriarchy, not the class warfare it actually was. Convenient, as it absolves women of any responsibility. In many countries women were given the right to vote with no strings attached. Men, on the other hand, had to agree to march off to war to have their ballots cast. That's not equality.

I'd love to see a study showing the long term psychological impacts on boys raped by older women. Articles like these are usually aggressor-centric, glossing over any impacts on the victims. Having sex with a 30 year old woman at age 15 would have severe impacts on my life, that's why laws are (supposed to be) in place. Yet the media still paints boys as sex-starved monsters that deserve and actually welcome being raped by adults. THIS is a real, tangible rape culture in our society; one that so…

Thank you for your honest and sincere input. I'd argue that the majority of the sub deals with more mundane issues like child custody, workplace deaths, unfair divorce laws, male genital mutilation, suicide rates and the like.

I'll chime in with my own experience. I strongly believe that walking away from violence should always be your first choice. If you can walk away, do it. On the other hand, you have every right to defend yourself, regardless of the attacker. If you are physically threatened you have a right to defend yourself, just remember that the police don't usually see it that way.

I have a very simple answer to your query. Try posting something similar in a feminist sub, advocating for men's rights. See how quickly you are insulted, then promptly banned. We don't silence differing views, we welcome them. Men can't even meet at a university to discuss their issues without having the feminist hate brigade attack their very being.

I have been on prescription drugs that cause weight gain and weight loss. You are 100% correct, the laws of thermodynamics were not violated. The drugs affect your appetite, not the efficiency of your metabolism. From experience, if you have good eating habits, weight gain would be minimal. If you are already overweight, eat poorly and have poor self control, you're gonna have a bad time.

Most MRAs are, at least on this subreddit. We don't ban people for having different views or intelligent adult discussion. I think the greatest issue facing egalitarianism and the MRM is the constant, systematic smearing of all MRAs. Humanity and society has issues. Some are female. Some are male. Some are trans. We are all people, and we all have stuggles. Inequality isn't a contest to see who has it worse. It's a complex, deep-rooted issue that affects almost everyone. Silencing voices isn't t…

Subreddits are inherently echo chambers, to varying degrees. What I've failed to see here, or in the mainstream media are the constant stories of men (esp. teachers) raping young kids. What I have seen is the first concrete proof of an actual "rape culture". One where raping is normalized, where the rapist is often painted as a victim that succumbed to the advances of a 12 or 13 or 14 year old sex crazed boy. It's been said before, but having sex with a teacher at that young an age would have me…

Not having a penis has become a definite advantage in some STEM fields. My employer is actively trying to bring more gender diversity to a field that's about 85% male. I don't disagree with this if the best human gets the job, but graduation rates for engineers are still strongly skewed towards men. This is especially the case in mechanical, electrical and computer engineering. What irks me in a sense is that we have amazing ethnic diversity already.

Your mileage varies depending on where you are in Canada. Like anywhere else, remote communities don't have the same resources as urban centres.

The fact that she got actual jail time instead of probation is definitely a win. And no, she doesn't deserve our sympathy. An adult in charge of teaching/supervising 13 year olds should not be raping them. There is no such thing as consensual sex with a 13 year old because 13 year olds legally can't consent.

The argument works both ways. I am inclined to say that men are equally less likely to open up about domestic violence in a non coed environment. How many men do you think would put their hands up in a mixed gender group if asked if they've been victims of domestic abuse or sexual assault?

My concern is that an assembly could quickly degrade into the societal norm that all men are potential rapists or d…
