23	Man changed name on his CV to a female name and got 870% more responses for an interview. Men: pursue tech jobs Women: pursue teaching Women: "wtf pay gap, how come men earn more than us!!!" Tech Companies: prioritize low skill women over high skill men to "fix the gap" All of this shit is maddening. Feminists get to bitch about the pay gap which is caused entirely by men and women making different choices and having different inherent skills. But not only that, men get discriminated against in these fields with gender quotas, because the assumption is that men are overrepresented du…	/r/MensRights	12/07/22 05:49 PM
12	Man changed name on his CV to a female name and got 870% more responses for an interview. I was in a discord call recently, and this one young woman was just being awful. She was talking about her dating life, and it was the most stereotypical shit you can imagine. She, as a woman, is not exclusive with any of the men she's with. But from the stories she was telling, it was clear that the men she's with don't know this. So my assumption is not that she's outright cheating on them, but that they've never had the exclusivity talk, so she feels free to sleep around, whereas the men have…	/r/MensRights	12/07/22 05:45 PM
6	Man changed name on his CV to a female name and got 870% more responses for an interview. It's really frustrating being pro-choice, while also thinking that it was purely a good thing for SCOTUS to repeal Roe v Wade. I don't agree with pro-lifers, but spending time around pro-choicers makes me want to tear my hair out with all the endless, "SCOTUS is misogynistic and wants to control women's bodies REEEE"	/r/MensRights	12/07/22 05:40 PM
8	Man changed name on his CV to a female name and got 870% more responses for an interview. "Women don't get literally everything they want, so that means we can discriminate against men and men aren't allowed to be upset about it." I fucking hate our society.	/r/MensRights	12/07/22 05:39 PM
16	Man changed name on his CV to a female name and got 870% more responses for an interview. Apparently because there are more men in tech than women, that means that any individual man trying to find a job in tech should be fucked over by gender discrimination. Because that's equality...somehow. I will never understand how people think that way. Why try to solve sexism with more sexism? Not to mention that men being overrepresented in a field isn't even necessarily sexism. What if, and I know this is crazy, but what if men are more likely to be interested in and skilled in a certain fi…	/r/MensRights	12/07/22 05:38 PM
1	Democrats Are Freaking Out Because A "Woman's Right To Choose" Is In Jeopardy... If it helps to make it explicit, I think of it like this: Boarding a plane is akin to having sex. Both are actions you take, knowing the risks. A plane might crash. Sex might result in an unwanted pregnancy. A plane beginning to nosedive is akin to an unwanted pregnancy occurring. Neither is disastrous yet, but puts you in the position of needing a solution quickly before disaster comes about. Having a parachute is akin to having an option to avoid the unwanted child, such as abortion, adoption,…	/r/MensRights	08/07/22 01:56 PM
2	Democrats Are Freaking Out Because A "Woman's Right To Choose" Is In Jeopardy... Agreed. And you also don't have to be religious to be pro-life. I'm pro-choice, but I think people are really unfair when they talk about the pro-life stance. You don't need to be religious to believe that personhood begins at conception. And you definitely don't need to be religious to think murder should be illegal. People talking about how restrictions on abortion are proof that we live in a theocracy just sound ridiculous to me. As if every single pro-lifer out there is a religious zealot.	/r/MensRights	06/07/22 05:46 PM
4	Democrats Are Freaking Out Because A "Woman's Right To Choose" Is In Jeopardy... A man and a woman both board a plane, fully aware of the risk of crashing. During the flight, the plane begins to shake violently, and it becomes clear that its going down. The flight attendant offers a parachute to the woman, yet offers nothing to the man, who is forced to go down with the plane. The woman nods along and thinks this seems like a fair deal. A different man and woman both board another plane, also fully aware of the risk of crashing. This plane also begins to nosedive, except thi…	/r/MensRights	06/07/22 05:32 PM
3	Circumcised men after hearing women lost bodily autonomy last week Roe v Wade being overturned made a lot of feminist masks slip off big time. They went from "no uterus, no opinion" to "why won't more men speak out about abortion?" in an instant. It's bad enough to argue "no uterus, no opinion" on its own. I think it's shitty to argue that people can only impact policy when it impacts them directly. That's a very short-sighted mindset, and if applied universally, would lead to some real shit. But to then immediately drop that attitude and expect all men to spea…	/r/MensRights	29/06/22 10:01 PM
2	Circumcised men after hearing women lost bodily autonomy last week Yep. Clearly, it's not a purely symmetrical situation, because the woman has to bear the physical burden of the pregnancy, while the man doesn't. But that excuse only goes so far, and I'm tired of people acting like that one factor alone means women should have 100% of the decision-making power when it comes to pregnancy. A woman can abort a man's child whom he desperately wants to meet and raise, and he has absolutely no say. Conversely, a woman can ignore a man's clearly and repeatedly stated …	/r/MensRights	29/06/22 09:57 PM

3	Ever notice how feminists like to gaslight men? There's a relevant moment from the Red Pill documentary which comes to mind. One man was talking about how women consistently say that men need to be quiet and listen to women, because as men, we don't know what it's like to be women, so we need to listen to women talk about their experiences, so that we can understand what it's like to be them, and can better discuss gender issues. And then he went on to say that he agrees, but that the reverse is also true, and that women need to learn to be q…	/r/MensRights	25/06/22 06:30 AM
1	'I wanted to get my tubes tied at 22 but doctor blocked me – it's sexist' -- Men have been denied vasectomies forever due to being too young. Yet, it's "sexist" for a woman to receive equal treatment I can’t dumb it down any further I very seriously doubt that	/r/MensRights	25/06/22 06:25 AM
2	Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both genders Maybe I get upset over the over generalization of feminism being anti-equality because I personally don’t feel as though I contribute to that. The problem here is the confusion between "feminists are bad" and "feminism is bad". The former is incorrect, because a large variety of people identify as feminists for a large variety of reasons. The latter is true, because the ideology itself is toxic and harmful. There are plenty of people like you who truly believe in equality, and who don't want to …	/r/MensRights	24/06/22 01:57 PM
32	Blatant Misandry in r/TwoXChromosomes The double standard of reddit. Men saying "men have problems, and we want them addressed" is misogyny, and such subreddits are perpetually on thin ice when it comes to being banned. Women saying "I hate men" is quality content, and such subreddits will be promoted to default subreddits for all new users to see.	/r/MensRights	15/06/22 04:16 PM
5	Blatant Misandry in r/TwoXChromosomes Yes. Welcome to the blatant double standard. A subreddit exists which discusses how society mistreats men, and how there are many policies/laws/etc which blatantly discriminate against men, and that subreddit will be labeled misognistic. Yet a subreddit exists which discusses how men are terrible and evil and bad, and that subreddit will be made a default subreddit, so that all new users to the site will see posts from it automatically.	/r/MensRights	15/06/22 04:08 PM
13	Too many people assume they know what the male experience is like and never ask what it actually is Feminists do that a lot. They demand that men sit down, shut up, and listen to women, because as men, we don't know what it's like to be women. And therefore, we have to take a back seat in any discussion which involves women's experiences (such as abortion), because our opinion is "irrelevant". But then they'll turn right around and talk about male privilege all day long, as if they have the first clue what it's like being a man.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	22/03/22 09:19 PM
9	Too many people assume they know what the male experience is like and never ask what it actually is Yep. Women like this are essentially mocking men for their coping mechanism. Men are expected to be providers. If you can't earn enough to provide for a family of 4, you are considered pathetic. So this means there is a lot more pressure on the average man than the average woman to advance his career. The average woman can do so if she wishes, but it's not a requirement, since she won't be expected to provide for an entire family. So men, faced with this unfair situation, decide to take charge. …	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	22/03/22 09:15 PM
20	This kind of thing angers me, it really does. Feminists are always going on about “toxic masculinity” and “men not showing tenor feelings”, yet when a man does express their genuine feelings of hurt, they pounce on them and try to make them ashamed for their emotions Tale as old as time. Men need to shut up and listen to women, because as men, they don't understand what it's like to be women. But women are totally allowed to discuss what being a man is like, because that's different somehow.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	22/03/22 09:06 PM
3	Is there a name for the common feminist fallacy of turning a privilege into oppression? It's really frustrating. The same statistics which show that a black person is 2.5 times as likely to be killed by the police as a white person, also show that a man is 24 times as likely to be killed by the police as a woman. That means that being a man is 10 times as bad as being black when it comes to police interactions. Yet when a black man is killed by the police, people lose their shit about the "black" part, and ignore the much-more-impactful "man" part. There is 10 times as much reason …	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	22/03/22 02:02 PM
12	Is there a name for the common feminist fallacy of turning a privilege into oppression? And that isn't a fluke. It's pretty consistent that ways in which black people are disadvantaged compared to white people, men are even more disadvantaged compared to women. Any time someone mentions a statistic for how black people are disadvantaged, go look it up. Odds are that they are correct, but that applying the same statistic by gender reveals an even larger disparity. But they don't want to talk about that.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	21/03/22 03:54 PM
7	is Female Fragility a thing Such is the way of modern gender discourse. If a woman does something bad, it's an individual who is bad. If a man does something bad, it's because that bad behavior is a "man" thing. Totally not sexist at all, duuuuh.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	18/03/22 09:39 PM
7	is Female Fragility a thing Yep. It drives me nuts when otherwise reasonable and intelligent women will pull that shit. I was recently part of a longer conversation which flowed from topic to topic. At one point, a man was being discussed who had explained something to a woman, which it turns out she already knew. It was not explained that the man was being deliberately condescending. As far as I know having heard the story, he might not have known that the person he was talking to already knew what he was explaining. None…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	18/03/22 09:37 PM
1	Oh give me a f**king break. Seeing as you can't see the finish line in this one, someone should make an extended version. For women, the finish line is right after what you can see in this image. For men, the first responsibility isn't until after that, and they are spaced out much more. So the end result is that the man has to run a lot further before he's done with his stuff. Household chores are not that time-consuming. I do quite a bit of them every single day, some before work, some during lunch break, and some right …	/r/MensRights	18/03/22 09:26 PM
0	Oh give me a f**king break. These feminist idiots act like they’re still living in the 1950’s, and it’s a crock of shit. Welcome to modern social justice. If people were honest about how our society works in 2022, they wouldn't have a leg to stand on. So they constantly play make believe that we live in 1950, and women are subjugated, and black people are oppressed, and so on. The way people talk about these issues is just not in line with modern reality.	/r/MensRights	18/03/22 09:00 PM
25	"Women should not be drafted because we still don't have equality" Feminists when male-only draft exists: "I sleep" Feminists when female-draft is considered: "NO. STOP. DRAFT IS IMMORAL." Feminists when we're back to male-only draft: "I sleep" Fuck off with your feminist apologia. Feminists don't give a fuck about men. You can claim all day that they think no one should be drafted, but they don't actually do fuck-all about it until women are being considered for it as well.	/r/MensRights	16/03/22 12:04 PM
12	Negative portrayals of men in media and gives the impression that women should be proud of being able to do basic things that the male characters can’t Ugh, agreed. I've often thought about how identity politics like this hurts everyone, because men are treated like shit, and women are pandered to like children, being insulted in the process. But I hadn't thought about this specific angle. That women are being taught that they should be proud of themselves for the most basic things. It's really quite scary to think about, consider…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	14/03/22 09:49 PM
4	Tired of the double standards in regards to inappropriate touching and shaming Exactly. We can still consider it a problem, but it should be considered a problem of general treatment of employees. Employees aren't being heard. They aren't having their work/ideas respected enough. They feel that it's too hard to be promoted. And so on. In any individual case, it might just be a bad employee blaming anything other than their own work. As a trend, it can be considered a problem. But to consider it misogyny by excluding male victims and assuming 100% of female victims are actu…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	10/03/22 02:44 PM
17	Tired of the double standards in regards to inappropriate touching and shaming Agreed. The constant double standards are so frustrating. Off-topic, but there's a thread on /r/Games about yet another company in hot water for their treatment of women. And I get that in many cases, this is a legitimate issue. But I feel like it gets drastically exaggerated because of how much society cares about women. Hearing the vague claims, it just comes off like the kinds of shit everyone has to deal with in their career. But when it happens to men, they either suck it up, or they compla…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	10/03/22 12:29 AM
8	Is medical gaslighting real a predominantly female issue? Yep. My girlfriend always says that the quickest way to make her cry is for her to see a dad crying. Because those tears mean a hell of a lot.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	06/03/22 11:04 PM
8	"It is really important for all of us to accept the biological differences in the workplace" Yep. That's the reasonable solution for someone who isn't bigoted. Smokers are complaining that they need a break in the day to smoke? Don't just give a break to smokers, introduce a new daily break for all employees. Women are complaining that they need a day off per month due to menstruation? Don't just give a day off to women, introduce a new day off each month for all employees. And so on. You resolve the issue that a portion of your employees are upset about, while still keeping things fair…	/r/MensRights	05/03/22 06:15 PM
7	Wikipedia is promoting Women's History Month by asking editors to "close the gender gap" by writing female biographies. Their reasoning? "Wikipedia hosts 1.7 million biographies. Not even 20% of those are about women. If Wikipedia wants to become the sum of human knowledge, this needs to change." And so the solution is to make it so that the next few millennia are as sexist in reverse?	/r/MensRights	05/03/22 06:09 PM
38	Courteney Cox: 'Women go through a lot more than people (men, presumably) realise' The balls on people to say shit like this without realizing that the reverse is obviously true as well. Especially considering we live in a society where women get an entire month dedicated to them, on top of already being the gender that humanity is designed to prioritize. But yeah, act like it's distinctly a woman thing to have your experiences and issues ignored.	/r/MensRights	05/03/22 06:06 PM
7	Feminism in not "supporting equality" and objecting feminism is not "being against equality". Supporting equality is called supporting equality, and feminism has been supporting inequality for quite some time and generates radical inequality. Actions speak louder than words. I don't care how many times feminists proclaim that feminism is about equality. That has not been demonstrably true.	/r/MensRights	04/03/22 03:09 PM
2	Instead of actually addressing the gender gap in education, this article blames men for it and tells them if they just acted more like gay men or women, the gap would be solved. "Men, if you are doing well in an environment which is tailored to women, just act more like women" Huh, I wonder how this would go over if it were reversed?	/r/MensRights	02/03/22 05:05 PM
7	My gf (22) just confessed to me (24) that there’s a double standard when it comes to leering. Yeah, I'm so lucky to have the relationship I have. We both point out hot people to each other all the time. People like looking at hot people, who knew. Either one of us sees a girl with a nice butt or a huge rack? That shit's getting pointed out to the other. Super buff guy walks by? Check that shit out. I would feel so constrained being in a relationship where acknowledging that there are other attractive people out there, and that they are nice to look at, is considered wrong.	/r/MensRights	21/02/22 12:38 AM
14	Is Reddit anti-male? AITA is such a joke. They'll bend over backward to be understanding with literally anything a woman says or does, but a man existing makes him the devil by default. It's insane how blatant they are about immediately putting themselves in the woman's shoes but never the man's. It would be like going to a meeting of rabid feminists and trying to tell your story, as a man, about a fight you are having with your girlfriend. Something tells me they are going to side with your girlfriend, just a hunch…	/r/MensRights	20/02/22 03:45 AM
2	A few years ago, Australia tried 'blind hiring' so women wouldn't be discriminated against. Turns out, less women were hired after trying this, so they scrapped the program This kind of thing seems to happen constantly, and every time, it's swept under the rug and forgotten about. Blind auditions, blind hirings, blind assessment of work, etc. Very frequently, people who assume the world is misogynistic set out to demonstrate that, and when they end up demonstrating the opposite, they just hit the undo key and pretend it never happened.	/r/MensRights	19/02/22 06:21 PM

If you have children, you need to provide for your children. There absolutely should be a government aid for people with children Honest question. How do you rationalize these two views. I agree with your first, but disagree with your second, because it's a direct contradiction. I think the responsibility falls on the person making the choice. If a man and a woman choose to have a child, both are responsible for providing for it. If a man makes it clear that he wants no part in a child's life ve…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	15/02/22 10:50 PM

They're just self-interested hypocrites. The things they argue will align with left-wing arguments when convenient and with right-wing arguments when convenient. They're just inconsistent, because at any point in time, they will argue anything and everything which benefits them.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	15/02/22 10:46 PM

I've seen "male" be used as a noun many times, with no one bringing it up as sexist, and I've seen "female" be used as an adjective with loads of people screeching about misogyny.

Seriously. These movements are pretty analogous to typical behavior in individuals. If people are being honest and unafraid of causing offense, I think most people would agree that women are much quicker to whine about something which bothers them. A woman is much more likely to come home from work with a rant about a coworker, whereas a man is much more likely to come home in a foul mood because of a coworker, but to keep it to himself.

Yeah. That TwoX post is a load of shit, which is par for the course for that subreddit.

6	"That's right, we only treat women" - Manchester Mental Health Trust UK Not to mention that the 9% can easily be explained by the result of the 91%. When so many men actively seek help and do not receive it, resulting in them committing suicide, many other men witness this and learn the lesson that it's not even worth seeking help. I imagine the amount of men who commit suicide who didn't even consider seeking help is even lower than 9%, because many of them will have had the idea and dismissed it as a pointless endeavor.	/r/MensRights	05/02/22 01:33 AM

And in typical fashion, the common stance seems to be that the medical field is biased against women, only ever researching men's diseases, only properly testing medicine on men, and so on. It's insane how out-of-touch feminism has caused people to be with reality. It doesn't matter how blatantly misandrist something is; the average person will still view it as misogyny.	/r/MensRights	05/02/22 01:31 AM
20	Postmodern leftist theory posits that crime is a symptom of disenfranchisement, especially when it comes to explaining minority crime rates. So why are we so blind about this when it comes to gender? Yep. If you account for relative population size, a black person is 2.5 times as likely as a white person to be killed by the police. But if you account for relatively population size, a man is 24 times as likely as a woman to be killed by the police. Ergo, a white man is 10 times as likely to be killed by the police as a black woman. So you are right.

It's so frustrating to me that people have absolutely no ability to empathize with a lonely man.

I recall a story over on ShortScaryStories where a man was chatting with a woman at a bar, clearly hitting on her, but unbeknownst to the man (or to the reader), the woman is some kind of human-eating monster in disguise, preying on the man by drawing him in and planning to eat him once they get back to her place.

18	how to show to women that advocating for men does not mean anti-women? Right? She blames downvotes on misogyny, but I can say with 100% confidence that if a male feminist came here from MensLib and started spouting all the same bullshit she is saying here, they would be treated a lot more harshly. If anything, her being a woman is earning her a gentler response, and yet she still plays the victim.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	01/02/22 05:54 PM
15	how to show to women that advocating for men does not mean anti-women? Not to mention how blaming downvotes on misogyny completely undercuts her initial point. Saying that most of male advocacy is misogyny means absolutely nothing coming from someone who blames downvotes on misogyny. She's just revealing that anything she doesn't like, she blames on misogyny. That explains why she thinks male advocacy is misogyny.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	01/02/22 05:51 PM

If a male feminist came in here and claimed that 98% of male advocacy is just kneejerk misogyny, they would be buried in downvotes. But sure, lady, it's just that people hate women, as usual. I wonder if people like this ever get bored of using that excuse. Not to mention that it invalidates her initial comment completely.

Imagine you are playing some competitive sport, Team A vs. Team B, and one or more players on Team B are breaking the rules in such a way that it's causing Team A to lose.

But that doesn't mean men and women can't end up being different, even if they are not inherently different. The way society treats men vs. women can shape them into different beings.

I'll edit this comment to add it if I can find it reasonably quickly. EDIT: Found it very easily. https://newdiscourses.com/2020/06/cult-dynamics-wokeness/	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/11/21 07:50 PM
7	Because Men aren't abused and killed by their Female partners? For a movement that claims to fight for equality, there seems to be a lot of animosity towards half the population. We live in a sad world, where shitting on Men is empowering to Women. Women make up 60% of college enrollment, compared to men's 40%; this is obviously a problem for women, because it makes it harder to date. /s We live in a world where that is unironically being argued by people. It's insane. Men could be the most oppressed demographic on earth, and people still wouldn't see it, because of how badly feminism has brainwashed society.	/r/MensRights	05/11/21 01:19 PM
3	If abortion isn't murder (and I agree that it's not), then LPS (a.k.a. paper abortion) is not child abandonment. Why do so many fellow pro-choice leftists not make this connection? This is like saying: there is a poor family that has a child that they can't pay for their needs. We have two choices, either let the child suffer, or make their rich neighbor pay for the child. It is clear here that this is a ridiculous proposition, because it is not the responsibility of the neighbor, even though this will be in the best interest of the child. Thank you. I'm so tired of bad-faith arguments like that. People pull the "but think of the children!!!" argument. But you know damn we…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	02/11/21 02:06 AM
7	If abortion isn't murder (and I agree that it's not), then LPS (a.k.a. paper abortion) is not child abandonment. Why do so many fellow pro-choice leftists not make this connection? Right? In the minds of a feminist, when a man says "I don't want the burden of a child", and a woman follows that up with "I'm giving birth to it and raising it anyway", the man is the one who has made the decision which resulted in a single-parent child. If I told my roommates I wanted some new curtains for the house, and they all said they can't afford them, and I went and bought some expensive curtains anyway...no one in the right mind would consider my roommates to be on the hook financially…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	02/11/21 01:34 AM
5	If abortion isn't murder (and I agree that it's not), then LPS (a.k.a. paper abortion) is not child abandonment. Why do so many fellow pro-choice leftists not make this connection? They'll also turn right around and use the same pro-life arguments they call misogynistic when used with reference to abortion. I've seen more "if men don't want to pay for a child, they should keep it in their pants" arguments than I care to count. And not in contexts where they are pushing a "see how shitty that is?" kind of angle. Nope. Just people who are genuinely arguing that, despite being fervently pro-choice and considering "keep your legs closed" to be misogyny. Plain hypocrisy.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	02/11/21 01:10 AM
22	TERFs only hate trans women because they hate men. Agreed completely. Take a look over at TumblrInAction. The general consensus there used to be a lot more of "I'll respect a transgender person's identity if they are a respectful person, but my personal feelings are that a person can't change their gender, and I take issue with the extreme ways many people in the realm of transgender activism go about their business". But once a bunch of feminists got in there, the subreddit has been non-stop transgender posts, and the comments of each is nothin…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	29/10/21 02:07 AM
