It is not that you're wrong, it is just that I do not believe that a coherent message does anything in a world that is dominated by soundbites. The attention span of the average voter isn't as great as their indoctrination of the US propaganda. It isn't really their fault either as everyone is bombarded all day with random crap and useless shit. With today's targeted spam and the hellscape that is earth at this time has made it become easy to trigger most of the population. Combine this with the…

"only men are responsible for the behavior of bad men because they'll listen to them but they won't listen to women." I believe some women can say this and it is absolutely true that men don't want to listen to them. The problem is just that it isn't that 'men' don't listen to what women have to say, it is about men not wanting to listen to what she has to say. I mean, i know a few of them that i seriously do not listen to, at the same time there are also some men as well that i won't ever liste…

What do you guys think of this framework? Is looking at this as a "cost vs. benefit" equation more useful than the current culture war narratives? Not really, from what i'm reading here the only difference between the structure you've chosen and the Red pill is that you choose not to lay the blame where it lies. All you need to do for it to be the exact same argument is to ask the question of how exactly these 3 points came to be. As to point one For most of human history, the male social contra…

It isn't so much women that "oppress" men, it is more that women often do not care about any problems men face because of their gender. Neither, we live in an oligarchy. Yes, because misandry can be openly displayed without any repercussions. Equality It isn't a matter of supporting it or not it is a matter of facing reality.

You're not wrong either, the thing is just that the image that is being painted here is that somehow there needs to be a 'safe place where there won't be any men'. It is just downright demonizing regardless of the space and time allocated to it. The only thing this will do is put more tension on the group dynamics. There isn't another group of people that can be treated like this without serious out lash. Just imagine someone wanting to have a room where there aren't any Jews allowed or women, d…

Feminism is a field trying to understand how men being in power for generations has affected society And immediately you bring it back to 'men', again it isn't about men it is about power. Who are you to dictate what factors of power are of interest? The topic is about feminism. So I'm looking to explain to you what feminist thought actually generally says about what patriarchy is. It is about how feminism keeps missing the ball and keep harrowing about men. I'm not interested in talking about q…

Feminists are just saying that that exclusive position of power has been largely held by men for many, many generations, which has allowed a bunch of things that favour men and harm women to come about through the power they've had to shape society. This right here is the problem you keep "missing", this isn't about 'men' but about 'power'. The fact that feminist keep harrowing on about 'men' is the problem here. The term you're looking for is 'oligarchy', a few people in power that shape societ…

I mean feminism isn't a monolith but that is not an accurate portrayal of how patriarchy is conceptualised. It's not the Illuminati. It's a structure, where powerful men people have more influence to shift in lots of ways big and small, either laws, or through little decisions and influences that affect what cultural ideas get accepted, norms and behaviours that protect their priviledge and keep others in their place. People with less power interact with that culture and reinforce it, or enforce…

Plan b doesnt cause abortions, it prevents pregnancies from starting. And abortion pills are only effective within the first 12 weeks. Like i said, while technically not the same thing it is just a pil. If a woman is 6 months pregnant and the father changes his mind, should she be forced to get an abortion? Like i said, where is the women's responsibility in all this? A woman that is pregnant for 6 months without noticing anything is doing something wrong. And what is it with moving the goalpost…

There are still other abortion medications besides the plan b pil like Mifepristone, while technically not the same thing it is still just a pill. So, yes i believe women should be held responsible for their own bodies.

Well yes, if the man doesn't consent to parenthood i don't think a 'plan B' is that much to ask for. If she is grownup enough to have sex with people she should also be responsible for her own body. Nobody is forcing her to have an abortion, she chose to have sex with someone who she knew didn't want to have a child with her at that time.

Fairly simple, both parents want to have this child together or there won't be a child. Because, if we truly want what is best for the child then wouldn't that mean two loving parents that want them to be in this world and care for them?

having equal reproductive rights is complicated. you say that either consenting to sex is constenting to parenthood or it isn't. but only women can become pregnant and this can come with health and mental complications, even in a easier or more by the book pregnancy. By this same logic it is only men that can become a parent against their wil, this too comes with its own sets of mental and health complications.

The problem that i have with abortion is the fact that men don't get to have that option. In a perfect world no one should become a parent against their wishes and children should be welcomed by both parents. It isn't about being anti feminist, it is about reproductive rights that men simply do not have. If having sex is the same as consenting to parenthood then abortions shouldn't be needed unless it is life threatening. We all know that this isn't the case as abortions are a thing. So the choi…

No, it can not work because the premise that it is set on is faulty. The whole patriarchy theory is build upon the idea that men have all the power and they collude to keep women suppressed. This whole idea is bonkers because they assume that all men are equably powerful and that is not the case. Most men are powerless in comparison to the women of the upper echelon and it is not even close. And the idea that men are somehow in collusion to somehow 'ban women' from higher positions is ludicrous.…

You're right, often opinions say more about the person having them than it does of the person it is about. That being said, if you yourself gave a shit about it it shouldn't be hard to understand that some people still do give shits about that. So when it is your partner that gives a shit then you should give at least a little shit about it too. This isn't about what others might think, it is about what your partner perceives.

If my partner has an opinion on my outfit being daggy/ not formally appropriate for an event- how is that protective ? Do you want to have a mother in law that doesn't think you're good enough for their child? Do you want your extended family or people at a workplace to think of you as someone to avoid?

Do we have to support our spouses? Of course we do! But that doesn't mean that acting out these hormonal problems is acceptable in any way, shape or form. Having a stressful, bad day at work isn't the same as having problems regulating the resulting feelings that they bring to the surface.

ANYTHING we can do to maximise the chances of a child having an engaged father must be done. This includes forcing fathers to pay for children they have sired. So, does this ANYTHING of you also include women not being able to get that child? I mean, you're holding someone responsible for a choice that they didn't make. Either having sex is consenting to parenthood or it isn't, can't have it both ways.

Yea, the problem is just that i don't think that having a child as a single mom is what is actually best for that child. Better would be adoption from birth of a couple (regardless of what mixing) that wants but can't have their own child. Plenty of fucked up children in the system, most of them are there because they have been ruined by the bad decisions of their single mom. If they'd truly did what is best for that child they would take it away and give it to a couple that wants a child but ca…

The problem as i see it isn't as much the people of the internet, but rather how patients turnt the tool into a weapon. It went from, as a tool for a therapist to remind them about the struggles a person might have had into the (often imagined) struggle being used as weapon in order to demand sympathy. It has become something of a sexist/racist ideal by their mere usage of gender and race. There is no actual way to invoke someones race or sex as having inherently more problems without being raci…

The big problem with DEI is that no matter the mental gymnastics, it is racist/sexist at its core. There is just no way to advantage or disadvantage a group based on either race or sex without it being racist/sexist in nature, this seems very obvious but apparently it isn't.

Also, looking at just attempts can be somewhat misleading because a single person who attempts multiple times but isn’t fully committed will be counted as multiple attempts. It is much worse than that, it isn't just suicide attempts that get logged as such, they put ALL forms of self harm under this same statistic. The percentage of patients that harm themselves are overwhelmingly female. Self harm is also something that comes back in times of severe stress. This inflates the attempted suicide s…

You're partially right, the problem with men getting rid of social barriers is that 'men' as a group aren't listened to. You can have a single woman complain about something and society will listen to her, you can have a group of men complain about something and society will scuff at them. The moment a man raises concerns about their treatment they're bullied into accepting their plight. Feminists are the worst offenders in this, in their minds no man can get harassed by a woman so in their mind…

Men can also give children up for adoption and can also use safe havens/safe surrender sites. No they can't, or at least not without the consent of the mother, this consent doesn't go both ways, so this is false. Literally the ONLY place women have options that men don't is the part of the process that applies only to them and doesn't apply to men, the actually bearing the pregnancy part.

I mean, sure the man wouldn't be responsible for the child, but that wouldn't make him 'not a father'.

But that isn't how reality works though, the reality is that when a man would do this without the woman's consent it would be seen as kidnapping.

Right, abortions should be heavily restricted (with medically necessary exceptions to preserve the life of the mother) because nobody should need anybody's consent for existing.

I think there is some legitimacy in this feminist theory; a society like Russia is unquestionable patriarchal, and with Putin at the head of the hierarchical food chain, he has sent thousands of helpless men to die in a useless war. Putin represents an extreme example of a patriarchal order of toxic masculinity; however, his existence is by no means a justifier for an unrestrained attack on masculinity. I personally think feminism brings many good aspects to society, that is if we’re considering…

There is a difference between being sympathetic to someone who is traumatized and validating the feelings/fears of such a traumatized person. Being sympathetic is helpful but validating them does nothing but feed the trauma. To me being sympathetic to someone who is traumatized means that you can understand that they may feel overwhelmed. You can help them overcome those feelings, but as soon as you validate these feelings there is no incentive for them to change anything about those feelings. V…

Unfortunately due to biology a man consent will always be consent to fatherhood. I really don't agree with this statement. This way of thinking is rooted in societal laws/rules/norms, not in biology.

In this case, there is at least one incident, according to the article, that the act in question was reported to police the same day. While I do think we should always be skeptical of claims unsupported by evidence, this does not appear to be the case here. So if i report something today and bitch about it a decade later my report is automagically 100% unequivocally the truth? Someone reporting something to the police is in no way evidence of the reported thing happening. So being skeptical a ab…

That’s not the point!?? How is it not the point? ​ Abortion is supposed to be a protected right for women, or biologically human female, and in all time it should be a choice, especially since sometimes, due to complications, an abortion is needed to save the woman’s life If it can be a choice for her that is a protected right, why don't men get to have this same protected right and choice? ​ Are you seriously saying women shouldn’t have this right protected because it doesn’t include men!? Yes?…

Men being perceived to always be predators IS a problem. How do you think that this problem should be solved? It is not as if 'men can do better' on this one. It doesn't matter how well behaved, groomed or polite a man is, if a women deems him a predator there's nothing he can do about it. ​ Children miss out on positive male role models, and relationships. Men miss out on positive relationships. Even women miss out on positive relationships whether they fear every man or not, because men are av…

She's basically saying our patriarchal society sees women as lesser (as objects) and less capable than men which is sexist against women. That's why society sees women as less capable of being a predator. So female predators are also seen as less dangerous. It all stems from misogyny. This makes no sense at all. First off all, society doesn't view women as 'lesser'. There is only one way that women are considered less capable and that is in strength. This has nothing to do with society being mis…

Okay, then how about, 'My sperm, my choice.'? Why is it that men don't get a say in how their sperm gets used? Why is it that a man's sperm can be used against their explicit wishes for procreation?

You understand that feminism ever since it's inception and certain feminist don't represent women's needs but instead only the needs of wealthy women. And you still call yourself a feminist? Do you realize that people like you are the ones that enable these feminists that do not represent women's needs? You have to realize that feminism very much is a monolith, the difference between people is how far individu…

Differentiating individual (or what you call personal) feminism and institutional feminism. I'm always happy to point out that most of my friends and my therapist all call themselves feminists. That's because they genuinely believe in equality. They're good people. I think a different distinction should be made. In my opinion there isn't such a thing as 'personal' feminism and institutional feminism. There is just feminism and how far people are willing to go along with it. By calling it 'person…

As far as I can tell, “feminism” means so many different things, ranging from genuine equality to outright misandry, that I can barely even understand it as a coherent concept. When one word can be construed in so many different ways it loses all meaning.

My interpretation of the scene is that Criston Cole was conflicted not because he wasn’t sure if he wanted to have sex, but because he felt reticent about breaking his vows, specially with the future queen. I'm sorry, but that doesn't make sense. Not wanting to break a vow with sex is him not wanting sex. If anything it makes it worse, she didn't respect his physical boundaries and she didn't care about his feelings as he clearly didn't want to break his vow.

They don't, because then it would become clear you're right. This is just another cherry picked "study" that doesn't include things like how much of a survival rate the patient had. What it comes down to is that female surgeons often refuse to do surgery if the surgery is risky. The male surgeons don't have this problem and would take on more risky surgeries. Those will result in higher mortality rate but they'll also give them a fighting chance. So their chances of survival are bigger as well.

I think my point about what meaning has been gleamed (acquired capacity for suicide, access to lethality) was meant to be a very superficial concession.

Yes, some people experience feelings of discomfort, disgust, or even fear in response to particular stimuli that may seem disproportionate to others who do not share those feelings. This is a problem for these people, a problem only they themselves can solve and it shouldn't be made into a problem of other people. My sister, for example, has an uncontrollable fear of spiders, does this mean we should exterminate all spiders? Or isn't it the spiders fault that she fears them? Anything can cause a…

It takes two to make a child, both parties responsible should have to pay for the costs. It only takes one to decide if there will be a child or not. If it is a decision of both parents both should be on the hook, but for as long as the man doesn't have a say he shouldn't be held responsible. Having a child is 100% a choice of the mother, she doesn't have to have a child, she choose to have a child. She has a plethora of ways to wave responsibility for the child, she doesn't even need to inform …

Right, because cheating on someone and becoming a parent against your wishes are totally the same thing. While it is shitty to cheat it is in no way as life changing as parenthood.

But if a man decides to kill himself in relation to a pregnancy, it isn't the pregnancy that is killing him but his inability to reconcile emotions within himself in regards to the pregnancy and in the woman's case it is the actual pregnancy.

Like i said, this is a very basic example. What im trying to say here is that the wording matters. How you tell the story about those apples and sweets is what matters. If you have a story about dividing sweets and apples you're already are explaining it in a way that girls will be engaged in more. Because it is a 'people based' story instead of something more abstract. If that story about apples was how a machine could pick them or something like that you'll engage more boys.

Okay, so this will be a very basic thing, but i do think it paints a picture of how this works. Lets say we need to explain subtraction to a bunch of kids. Normally this would be done through a story, the subject of this story will be detrimental for whom you will engage. If i tell a story about 10 dolls and a tea circle chances that the girls will be engaged are fairly high but the boys won't be. But if i tell a similar story about race cars and a race it will be much more engaging to the boys …

Here is the thing, men are always told that if they didn't want to become a parent then they shouldn't have had sex. So either give men equal rights, or, get the same rights as men.

None of this is about rights, all you did is sum up some physical differences. Yes, men and women are different, men do not get pregnant. But men also do not have bodily autonomy, they do not have a say if their sperm is used to procreate. Men generally speaking are on the hook for the children that they fathered, but they don't get a say in when this is happening.

In terms of reproductive rights men and women are different and can’t be treated equally. Yea no, men and women might be different but that is no reason to not treat them unequally. Our society has made numerous laws to ensure equal treatment under law. Tell me, why is it that we can't give men the same reproductive rights as women? We have lowered standards for women to be able to join things like the fire department. There are rules that ensure women get jobs in just about every sector that th…

I'm not exactly sold on that if im honest. There is a fine line between merely uplifting one group and shitting on their polar opposite.

No, there is no such thing as a 'right not to be creeped out'. Something being harassing or something being flirting or someone being socially awkward is a fine line and 99% subjective.

Something no longer being attached onto my body doesn't make it 'not part of my body'.

So effectively they do not have control over their sperm. I do not think that having to surgically alter yourself in a way that is often irreversible and condoms that fail have anything to do with bodily autonomy in the way that women do have. My sperm is part of my body, but it can be used without my consent to conceive a child. To me this means that men simply do not have bodily autonomy.

It's just that men tend to have fewer obstacles in the way of achieving power than women. Yea no, your going to need to quote sources for that. The fact that there are more men in places of power doesn't mean that these men had fewer obstacles. Correlation doesn't imply causation. If anything, women have fewer obstacles in their way to obtain higher positions of power. It is even set in law in the form of affirmative action.

Just because some women are in positions of power doesn't mean there aren't obstacles in the way of achieving that power. And men don't have obstacles in their way to achieve any form of power? Of course people are going to have obstacles they have to overcome when they lust for power. It's not as if random people just land on the top of organizations.

If the man didn't consent to reproduction and neither did the woman, then no, it's not an example of rape, it's an example of an accidental pregnancy.

That's the point; no one is consenting to parenthood. It's an unwanted pregnancy by both the man and the woman. Therefore it's disingenuous to claim the woman is "stealing" the man's sperm.

If a mountain climber gets frostbite on their tows and they need to be amputated doesn't mean that their foot isn't mutilated. As for the second point, you're right that circumcision and sexual competency shouldn't be an argument. It is just that only pro MGM people tend to use it as some sort of justification to what is done to them. Firstly, if someones parents are thinking about their child…

Now lets take the average truck driver, lets even be amicable and say that he only 8 drives hours a day at 60 mph 5 days a week. That is 480 miles a day, that means that he has about two times the risk of dying every month over a pregnancy that takes 9 month. No pregnancies aren't a walk in the park by any stretch, but it is hardly dangerous. If it were there wouldn't be any truck drivers, or at least no old ones.

Then why is the exact same phenomena for women called 'internalized misogyny' and not 'toxic femininity'? 'Toxic masculinity' is nothing but a dogwhistle, if it was about how men are pressured into certain behavior it would have been called 'internalized misandry' just like the female version.

but now I’m wondering if insisting upon a color scheme is sexist. Is that a deal breaker for men? Curious for the male take on this issue. No, its not sexist to want a color scheme in your kitchen. Personally i could not care less about color schemes in a kitchen as long as it is functional. I'm sure that there are men who are into decorating and color schemes and such, but i can't say that i know any. Sure, the men i know that have to pick something would pick a color they'd like.

No, they didn't, neither men or women held financial, political or military power. If anything it was women who held those powers as queen Wilhelmina reigned at that time. Clearly when there is a man on top then all this power goes to all men, so having a queen on top means that all women held all the power, right!? Some wealthy people held power, everyone else was considered nothing more then garbage. Your whole premise is build upon an apex fallacy.

But in 1887 the Netherlands didn't have census suffrage but had the so called 'Caoutchouc-artikel', this arikel prohibited women from voting by law, before that it wasn't prohibited that is why Alleta Jacobs was able to apply. You were talking about times of census suffrage so that is what i talked about. But even in those times it was still one vote per family, male children of parents who could vote didn't get those same rights until they qualified themselves. It might have become somewhat eas…

But during times of census suffrage (wealthy) men were in power. It wasn't men who were privileged, it was wealthy people, be it man or woman. They got one vote for every family that had to be cast by the head of said wealthy family who where men. That doesn't make men privileged or women under privileged as most people were unable to vote regardless of their gender.

It are these past times that are used as 'proof' of the patriarchy and the idea that 'all men are rapist' and all the 'KAM' nonsense.

When it's justified by biology: e.g. taxpayer funded routine prostate checks for men, breast scans for women, higher pension ages for women because of their longer life expectancy and need to put in more years to pay into the system to compensate for taking time out in mid-career, bias towards men in training courses that cost the taxpayer large sums of money (e.g. medicine) because men are more likely to justify the expense by working their entire careers as doctors, when one sex only needs pro…

Do you self-identify as a feminist? No How do you define feminism? A female lobbying group that is funded and supported by government. ​ How do you view feminists? The ones that want equality are misguided as feminism isn't about equality. The ones that spout feminist theory i view as delusional as these theories are mostly angry manhating rants that have nothing to do with reality. ​ Do you perceive conflict between feminism and heterosexual relationships (romance and sex)? Not so much a confli…

Government intervention is fine, government intervention based on a racial theory is not.

It is short term across generations. But that doesn't make it short term for the people who have to live with it. By those standards slavery can be considered short term too. I mean, this makes it legal to discriminate on sex and race, but somehow its magically not sexist or racist because the people who feel this way dont find it sexist and racist. Let’s say we have a deficiency of men in the nursing industry (we do). It will take 20 years for the percentage of men in nursing to rise by only 5%…

Which civil rights in particular? I believe in building disadvantaged groups to a position of social, professional and political equality, even if that requires short term disadvantage to previously privileged people. It’s short term pain for long term gain. There is no such thing as a "short term disadvantage" when we are talking about social, professional and political equality. People just have this one life, it might be "short" on historical levels but people can't get a do over when they ar…

First off a general note to all the subs regulars, stop downvoting comments like these! You might not agree with them, but there is no need to downvote people that want to engage this sub in civil discussion. I believe that there are basically two different kinds of feminists, there are the 'true feminist' and there are the 'feminists by association'. The 'true feminists' are the ones that hate men, subscribe to the patriarchy theory and are generally speaking not very nice people. The 'feminist…

Going by this logic there should be no consequences for murdering someone, because it really doesn't happen that often. Come to think of it, rape doesn't happen that often either. Just look at the number of consensual sexual intercourse a day versus the number of rapes... That isn't really logic, everyone knows it, but somehow these feminist think its a perfectly good reason to deny men basic human female rights.

So. How would you approach that problem (men silently ignoring women, because they are afraid)? Men can't really approach that problem any other way then ignoring women silently. Its a damned if you do and damned if you don't kind of thing. While im very aware that feminism is about women's issues, the thing is just that when we are talking 'about equality between the sexes' then that is somehow the thing that feminism stands for. Feminism doesn't champion equality between the sexes, it wants ev…

That.. That is just mind boggling.. That part about 'strong objectivity' is downright scary misandrist. If im understanding their point they are saying that being objective is hard as there always is a bias. I mean, sure, but their conclusion about the bias is just bonkers.. They basically say that their bias is somehow a good thing because it strengthens their beliefs and therefore its somehow 'more true' then 'men's' goal to have research be as neutral as possible. Granted, the other links are…

One of their tactics was their "reefer madness" campaign, that was based on racial tensions of the time.about having racist reasons to make pot ilegal) That is a half truth. I'm sure there were some people who wanted it abolished because of racial reasons, but the driving force was the cotton industry. Hemp fibers are far more superior then cotton fibers. They are more easy to grow, they are stronger and more durable, the only thing that cotton has over hemp is the way it can be processed. Becau…

Well for one I'm taxed for pads and tampons even though it's not my choice to have a period. Men are taxed for shaving products, something they have to use far more often then women have to use pads or tampons. Its not a man's choice either to have a beard. The point im making is that everyone has to pay tax over hygiene products, exempting just female products would be sexist. So instead of campaigning for female hygiene products to be exempt of tax, you could argue for all hygiene products to …

I agree that the way to go is to punish false rape claims, the thing is just that there needs to be evidence. A lack of evidence for rape doesn't mean that its a false accusation just like it doesn't mean that a lack of evidence means that it was rape. The whole nature of rape makes it a hard crime, usually sex happens with just two people this makes it hard to determine what actually happened. I think a good option would be that proven false rape claims should have the same punishment as the ra…

This is my plea: stop politicizing rape that doesn't affect you. I really do understand that rape victims are the ones that draw the short straw in all of this. The thing is just that its not only the rape victims that draw the short straw in this, it is all men too that draw the short straw. The problem to males isn't as much the politicizing of rape that is the problem, it is the weaponizing of rape that is the problem. This makes it that most rape cases affect men personally. Rape is often de…

Well I don’t think anyone denies it has benefits I do! It has no benefits at all, lets be honest, easier hygiene isn't a thing. You'll still have to wash yourself and its not as if that second of pulling back the foreskin makes things that much easier. It doesn't protect you against STD's, the "study" that is cited has been debunked over and over again. They actually gave condoms to the people they cut and instructed them on how to use them turning the "study" effectively moot as they didn't pro…

Let her be resentful, if the child was a daughter, she would be appalled if you said you wanted her clitoral hood removed.

We all know more than a few men who may smell of B.O. on the regular or don't probably keep even dental hygene up to snuff. And i know just as many women who have exactly the same hygiene standards, on that notion, would you say FGM should be reinstated?

Are you serious??? You know around a 100 babies die each year from MGM, so that seems like a big health issue to me. Then there are numerous instances where there are complications during surgery, sometimes babies even get their penis amputated by accident. Cutting into a perfectly fine baby is never without risks.

No no and no. You go re read OP's fucking statement. My wife has always believed that circumcision is healthy and hygienic. When I said otherwise, she backed her argument based on some random articles that she read. She couldn't remember which ones they were or how to find them so I haven't read them.

“Let her be resentful” have you ever lived with a woman that resents you? If this isn't eluding to that then i don't know what is. You realize the point I’m making is that it’s not a realistic scenario for this to not be discussed prior to getting married or having a kid. Do you realize that the point the other poster was making was that the wife being resentful isn't that big of a deal if it means that his son is still in tact. And no, most people do not discuss genital mutilation before they g…

So to you its better to mutilate your child's genitals then it is to piss off your wife? There isn't a third option here. Some hills are worth dying on, your child's bodily integrity should be one of them.

Just a thought, if she doesn't want to make use of the things that men have made then i would suggest she refrain herself from using the internet and everything that is used to write. She should really stop reading books, not use stores and not live in a modern home. When cooking she would do well to not use modern kitchen appliances and only use a campfire, that is, only if she is able to make fire without modern tools like a lighter or matches.

This was brought up and I were told that approximately 2-3% of rape is false and confirmed false. However, I thought this was a false statistic. The devil is in the details, what they are saying is true, but a half truth. What they are saying with this statement is that of the 100% of the rape cases they came across there where only 2 to 3 % of the cases were proven to be false claims. But of this same 100% of cases you'll only end up with 5% conviction rate, these are cases proven to be correct…

When a few people of a whole movement are shitty people then you can say those people aren't part of X movement. When half of the movement is shitty and is writing books about how its okay to be shitty against group X, then saying 'those people aren't part of our movement' is a no true Scotsmen fallacy.

Family courts are courts of equity and if the biological father is not produced, the courts may completely overlook your victimization because the court is focused on the best interest of the child. The problem is that they aren't focused on 'the best interests of the child' they are focused on the best interest of the mother. It really isn't in the best interest for the child to have a father that doesn't care about them and actually resents them for excising. And can you really blame the fathe…

Some of them yes, but a lot of them have been killed. To quote a bit from my linked article On February 25, between 40 and 59 children were killed by the fundamentalist militant group. Early that morning, Boko Haram terrorists attacked a boarding school and shot many of children, aged 11 to 18, while they slept. Some of the students were gunned down as they attempted to flee. Others had their throats slit. In some buildings, Boko Haram militants locked the doors and set the building alight. The …

The best argument against this is, 'then there is no need for abortions to be a thing'. Clearly if a woman doesn't want to have a child she shouldn't have sex. It is not something i subscribe to, but, if this is how these people want to play it then they are either sexist for not wanting men to have a financial abortion or they are the sexist for not wanting women to have access to abortions.

I’ll say this again. Being impartial applies to both/every party. Victims need to be heard and the accused needs to be treated exactly like that, which is ACCUSED. Very different from being proven guilty. The problem lies with the pitchfork mob mentality where the accused isn’t treated fairly, neither in court nor the court of public opinion. Yea, being impartial applies to both/every party. What is very damning though is the fact that this women got out the pitchfork. If she truly thought this …
