I'm with the majority here; speak to your father directly and ignore your mother. He does not need to go through her to help you with school, and you do not need her permission. Also, I wanted you to know that, whether he pays or not, there *are* other ways to go to school; you will not be stuck; it'll be ok. The path might be a little more wonky, but you got this!

Length of the movement's existence and established causes would be my best bet.... Like, if you started dating someone, and on the 2nd date they let one really rip, you're probably going to judge them harsher than someone you've been in a longterm relationship with... same idea. That's kind of my thought process, at least.

The whole thing is problematic, but I think the definition of rape is the most problematic. As a mini side-note, if we changed the labels "forced to penetrate" to "rape", and "forced penetration" to "made to engulf" (I can't think of a better term...), it becomes very clear what the issue is here: perceived role. In the defined rape scenarios, something is being forced upon you (i.e. being penetrated). In the others, however, you are an active participant (the penetrator, or the "engulfor").

From what I understand, there are several things at play, and we see this regarding nearly all beliefs: 1) When someone feels their beliefs are being challenged, they are more likely to bolster down. MRM and Feminism are often seen as opposing forces, which does not help this. 2) The idea of a care-inventory; society can only care about so many things. By trying to discuss issues men face, you are taking away from the issues women face, and vice-versa. 3) Lived experiences. It is easier to recog…

No, you have totally valid arguments. There needs to be a healthy balance and Olaf's input, like that turtles breathe out of their bums, probably isn't the the kind of hard facts one needs to be told more than once. However, I could see the movie being complex enough to require a great many viewings for a child to digest everything.

You mean the one that states "...much of early childhood development isn't just about learning facts. They need to learn basic socialization skills" and that the "use of fictional media, especially now when most kids can't interact with anybody outside of their homes, is important for social development"? Because they seem to make some pretty sound arguments.

In your magic-wand experiment (which is a great example, btw!) I would imagine that individuals would still revert back to traditional roles, but that this reverting would be largely due to the already-learned gender biases. If we were to look at the bigger picture, however, I think we would see more men and women remaining in their new positions; not creating an even 50-50 split, but definitely closing the gap further. You are completely correct, though: even if it is due to traditional gender …

I had always assumed the M or F was to help identify your body, particularly in incidences where other identifying features are damaged/destroyed. With sex identity becoming more accepted and fluid, however, I could see this falling into more of a gray area.

Less men pursuing a further education, careers in female-dominated occupations (like education), higher rates of substance abuse, and higher rates of completed suicide... all choices that are ultimately made by men. We don't blame men for these choices, because we understand the social and economic factors that underlie them. I'm confused, then, on why we aren't extending that same understanding when a woman is involved.

https://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/press/spousfac.pr You are correct that a greater percentage of women, at least in regard to spousal murder, will hire a contract killer (6% vs 3%). However, use of a firearm (wives 58%, husbands 50%) or knife (wives 37%, husbands 19%) seemed preferred. This information is from 1995, so perhaps things have changed with access to technology. However, from what we know, it does not appear that most women outsource the murder. It's also worth noting that men outsource…

Here's the site with the IAT they used if anyone wants to see what their implicit biases are https://www.projectimplicit.net ​ Regarding the study, however, there has been a large body of work related to parents' gender attitudes and children's beliefs, with findings suggesting that both parties contribute.

Twin of a brother with MRDD. I do not condone sterilizing a group of people just because it makes another group's lives easier, and I find it horrific that as a society we haven't fought for MRDD rights harder.

Female murderers are highly uncommon; serial killers even less so. Like male killers, there is not always a justifiable defense. If I recall correctly, the spouse and children are the most common victims.

I would probably argue that just because the society is freer, it does not mean the stereotypes/threats are no more. Men are free to use makeup to cover up blemishes, or hold positions working with children... we hear many speak about desiring such things, yet they continue to opt out. Access doesn't eliminate social gendering. It is also worthy to note that longing or returning to what is familiar is exceptionally common among adaptation models. It is a stage one passes over time.

I'm glad addiction among women is being spoken about more. Research had initially focused on male addicts, but these women are correct in asserting that there are differences between the genders and how the addiction is expressed, received, the risks, etc. Being one of few women in a detox center, for example, might feel intimidating. Men with eating disorders have expressed a similar issue when seeking out help; this uncomfortable feeling that you're not supposed to be there because you don't l…

Though I agree, violence against men gets more of a pass and we should be aware of it, I wouldn't call an even divide small. The original post didn't specify a gender, and by applying one on a sub based around gender inequality, it's not only misleading but fans a flame. It would be like someone posting "man slaps teen's ass" for an equally unidentifiable person on a chris hanson-esque sub. Was slapping a teen's ass cool? No. Was labeling the assualter male irrelevant? Probably not.

In this situation, I agree with the advice given because it's clear that neither party is willing to genuinely listen to the other. In general, however, I agree that ignoring/disregarding someone because they go against your belief system is ludicrous and unproductive.

2 of those seem like government ones... yes, we can say that men make up a majority of those roles, but entities are a little different from individuals. For example, feminists wouldn't blame women for the education gaps, despite women making up a majority of educational roles. There are social issues that influence both, and those are what need to be addressed. The violent crimes one, though... that one she's got a point on.

Behavioral addictions are relatively new and include things like gaming, tanning, gambling, and shopping. Though there seem to be gender preferences in the specific addiction (boys and gaming), there doesn't seem to be enough research to really determine if one gender is more susceptible to behavioral addiction than the other.

I've known many women who were raped and called liars for an array of reasons (you were dressed for it, you're just looking for a day off of work, if you were really raped you would have reported it that same day, etc).

In my experience from childcare, it could go both ways.

Dad and sister. Both have a nut allergy that's fatal; only one has the condition taken seriously. The other gets told they're being dramatic.

Do we have more women who attempt suicide, or are there women who make more attempts? This is an important distinguisher.

Fair enough. However, we would need to account for the application differences before making any judgments, or look to a study that focuses on matched applicants. From this particular article, applying to 16% more jobs and getting hired 16% less of the time seems reasonable given the information we have. I don't think it's the best example of bias against men in that sense.
/r/MensRights10/03/20 02:54 AM

According to the article, recruiters are 13% less likely to click on a female's profile and 3% less likely to contact them. I don't disagree that there's a bias, but if we're going to go based off of the article, that bias seems to be pointing the other way.

"The good news is that when women do apply to a job, they are 16% more likely than men to get hired." "16% more likely to get hired to the jobs they apply to" So from my understanding, it's based off of the jobs they applied to (fewer jobs that they meet the most qualifications for).
/r/MensRights10/03/20 02:42 AM

16-18% more likely to get hired, when applying to jobs they feel they meet all of the criteria for. Basically, when we look at a group that, according to this article, is less likely to apply to a job that they don't meet the criteria for, they are also more likely to get hired. That's not sexism; that's common sense.

The link was in the "100%" part of the quote I had used above ^ It's where the article got it's information. The bottom line is women are applying to jobs where they meet more of the qualifications, while men are applying to more jobs. I think it's reasonable to assume that the person with 100% qualifications is going to get a call back faster than the person meeting 60%.

Infant fMRI studies have been done before, and circumcision continues to be performed, medically necessary or not.

I was just curious on what you meant by mental health support. Did you mean mental health services, social support, awareness campaigns, a combination? I think you're both right in the sense that men typically don't seek treatment, and that there are many underlying issues as to why that is. There's been movements in other areas of mental health to encourage men to seek treatment, but for whatever reason, depression is still lagging.

To my knowledge, we have more developed structures, particularly surrounding the more primal ones. For example, our cerebral cortex is significantly more wrinkled when compared to less intelligent animals. Size isn't really a strong indicator of intelligence. If that were true, larger animals, like elephants, would be more intelligent than humans. Put simply, men are on average larger and therefore have larger everything. In the case of the brain, however, this does not equal more intelligence.

I think there's a balance. Social support has been shown to be valuable to healing, especially in instances of trauma, because you have other people encouraging you and guiding you in the right direction. It's one of the reasons group therapy is used for substance abuse and losses, as well as why people who experience natural disasters (because they are part of a community that experienced the same trauma) often fair better than other trauma victims.

Comparison of survey and time diaries typically. There was a particular study I couldn't locate again that took it a step further and asked participants (couples, so we got both sides) what percentage of a particular task they contributed to (ex: breakfast) and what their contribution entailed (ex: prep and cleanup). That one was interesting because you had more insight into how the couples perceived their contributions.

My point was, even in environments with male teaching strategies, like segregated schools, boys don't benefit.

Not the most accurate post on their part, but to be fair, they're not completely off.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to over-extend! No, most people do not have any memories before the age of 3 (thank goodness!).

From my education, it sounds like early trauma, including physical, can have a negative impact on the brain. So by all means, proper numbing for the procedure is a must!

Single parent households tend to be under more of a burden than 2-parent households. This has nothing to do with single mothers, but is simply the economic disadvantage of being a single parent.

I don't have a masters in engineering and biomedical engineering, so my experience isn't going to be quite like yours... however, I might be able to add a little insight on why some employers will overlook a seemingly better candidate. 1) Being too educated for a specific role. An employer might worry that you will grow bored, appear as a threat to your superiors, or believe you're less affordable (if money wasn't discussed). 2) Being too good at your current task. If you are doing the work of 3…

I agree with this ^ I also wanted to add that doing one productive thing a day really starts widdling things down and keeps you from sticking in a rut. It can be something as simple as finishing a paragraph of a paper or sending out an email. And one thing that has always motivated me in school was looking at how many days I had before break. Kind of like a sprinter, I could use the remainder of my energy for a sudden burst knowing that the finish line was near.

To be fair, op has a point. Trying to solve mra issues by focusing on extreme feminists is kind of like trying to solve the job market by blaming the mexicans; you're finger-pointing (at a SMALL group) without looking for solutions. All the "fuck feminist" talk is actually detracting from the bigger goal.

If you need help finding articles, just ask on here! Men's rights as a whole is relatively new and will take a while to build specific research on. However, there is a lot of current research that looks at differences between the genders when it comes to work, education, prison, etc. that you can still use towards many of your causes.

The article they are referencing is https://psycnet.apa.org/buy/2019-46241-001 , which will be more useful in your research than secondhand news articles. If you are currently enrolled in a school or have access to research articles, you can look up "Implicit attitudes about gender and emotion are associated with mothers’ but not fathers’ emotion socialization" by Kristel Thomassin. The part of the study of interest, however, was on implicit bias, which isn't quite as explicit as requested. It i…

Women tend to attempt suicide using more treatable options (such as pills), while men take more certain routes (a gunshot). There have been many theories on why this is, but the one many psychologists seem to have landed on is that it is out of respect for those who have the misfortune of finding them. Instead of a parent finding their child in bloodied lumps, for example, they'd walk in on them seemingly asleep.

I would assume that they prescribed opioids to your female coworkers because their condition is seen as temporary while yours is seen as permanent. Opioids are not meant to be used long-term.

Who has the most interaction with other adults in the child's life (dropping them off at school, taking them to doctor appointments, the dentist, etc)? In my family, my siblings and I had our mother's name until the marriage because, coming from a more traditional home, she was the homemaker and therefore the person everyone else in our lives would contact if there was an issue. It prevented confusion/issue when she'd grab us from daycare, or needed to take us to the hospital; there would be no …

I've done a few papers on education, gender-gaps included. One of the larger issues seems to be an expectation from the teachers and the teasing/harshness of fellow students. This is why one of the solutions to the education gap, sex-segregation, saw little traction. Girls saw a *small* benefit in typically male-dominated classes, like math and science, while boys saw a more significant drop in female-dominated ones, like english.

You are not a loser for never trying; the value you place on yourself shouldn't be equal to the wetness of your dick. There's a lot of other experiences you can live out, and if you happen to find a unicorn in that time, that's just icing on the cake. You are on a reddit about forging your own identity, no one else's, so for now you focus on you and the rest can fall into place. Also, if it helps, people are people. Some lie, cheat, steal, etc... just like not all men are pigs, not all women lac…

Ah, that makes a bit more sense... So even though both sexes can choose their partners, the women shouldn't have as much freedom because they're already coming in with a disadvantage; they are weaker and therefore should be more careful in their decisions because they won't have the same level of control as the man in the relationship. If the woman tried to pull the same stunts as the abusive man, she would be told how it was and put in her place (at least in the older days). But now it's men, n…

But why aren't women with unstable mentalities treated likewise? The poster comes from a westernized society (referenced in another posting) where it sounds like men have options in women too. Instead of placing the sole blame on women who put "drug addicts, alcoholics, [and] sex addicts in the homes of our future children", why not also look at the men who place children in the dysfunctional women?

When a man has the freedom to choose a woman, he'll of course choose the woman that's going to make his D hard. Little has he thought about the consequences it will have on his offspring, because he was too focused on raw dogging stacy... My man, it ain't men or women's fault... dumb people make dumb choices.

Strip clubs are businesses and the strippers are sales people. They are selling an idea/experience to a paying client; working a position that requires confidence, knowledge, and control. Sellers do this all the time; a good sales person is one that makes the client feel valued while at the same time maximizing their profits. I find it a bit sad when things like human intimacy are degraded to a product, but unfortunately there's a market for it...

I'm lost, is paying for sex out of the question? There are legal brothels where screenings are done. Because it's a transaction moreso than an interaction, talking beyond negotiations would likely be out the window, along with the other bores of human interaction. Also, as other posters have mentioned, sex dolls...

My dude, where you finding these crazy girls? I'm obviously not going to say what they're asking from you is right (because it's not), but I'm going to give you my 2 cents on what's going on. We're at that awkward point in social change where women are moving to more stereotypical masculine rolls and men are moving towards more feminine ones. In the big picture, this is awesome. Girlfriends buying you dinner, boyfriends getting to stay at home with the kids; basically y'all get to do you. The pr…
