Women have an unfair advantage that needs to be corrected.

I will never agree to punishing someone for another's choices. Especially since that punishment doesn't even guarantee that the child's needs are met.

And forcing the consequences of the woman's choice on the man is unfair to him. Why doesn't his life matter?

How is it irrelevant, it was the woman's choice to bring the child into a situation where it only has 1 parent's support.

It is the most innocent party - 100% innocent, really - and therefore you bend over backwards to give it a good life. It made no choices that led to its existence. The only party that made the choice that results in a child is the woman. The responsibility falls on her. And it is mighty stupid to apply that argument to another situation that isn't analogous! MIGHTY stupid. lol k
/r/MensRights14/08/17 06:52 PM

It doesn't matter. If there is an alive innocent child, it needs support. Removing the support of one of its sires would have a strongly negative impact, which is not fair to the child who is the most innocent party here. Then hold the party that chose to bring that child into the world responsible. The child isn't the only innocent party here. There are lots of exceptions to everything, and trying to make points out of them makes your argument look extremely weak. Don't frame it as an absolute …

The point? The point that there are exceptions we make in to the two-sires rule in the interest of the child? Yes, of course that's true, there are nooks and crannies to this. Scope and scale matter; the number of adoptions in the USA is far smaller than the children born who are not adopted, and allowing ALL the fathers of ALL those children to opt out of supporting them is not even on the same planet as adoptions. You do realise that this opting out would only be possible during early stages o…

We're doing our best to ensure that the child receives the best life possible by allowing adoption :) Still dodging the point. :) Sooooo who is more innocent than the child who never chose to be born? I misread and edited. But a close second would be the father who never had a say in the child being born.
/r/MensRights14/08/17 05:59 PM

If you want to firm up laws around this, go you! That's one of the issues MRAs try to tackle, yes. And they follow the proper procedure. As a society, we've recognized that people who put their children up for adoption are near-universally in very bad places and are doing so as a last resort. And they no longer have any obligations to their child. So again, no such thing as a child's right to be supported by both it's sires. The child is the most-innocent person in this equation. Sorry! Doesn't …

Adoption is gender-neutral. If you sire a child and its mother wants to give it up for adoption but you do, then you're entitled to take it yourself and demand child support from her. Assuming you know she put it up for adoption and can claim parental rights before your child gets adopted. More to the point: we as a society decided that the child is better-served being raised by a family that can devote time and money to its care instead of a family that cannot. The child is never better-served …
/r/MensRights14/08/17 05:47 PM

Because it's the same thing. A mother gives up her rights and obligations to her child when she gives it up for adoption. She doesn't have to pay child support to the adopted parents or play any other role in her child's life. This means there's no such thing as a child's right to be supported by it's sires. We just want that concept to be extended to include legal paternal surrender.

We were wrongfully called racist, sexist, homophobic and a bunch of other nasty things long before anyone even heard of the alt right. It. Does. Not. Matter. We have been and will continue to be smeared because we don't fall in line with mainstream opinions on gender issues. Nothing would change if we only allowed articles and other links from "non alt-right" sources (an ever shrinking list). Because if we did the comments would still espouse the same things we do now.
/r/MensRights14/08/17 02:02 AM

Who cares why they post the articles? The whole left vs right nonesense is irrelevant to men's rights, anyway. I don't care if it's Breitbart, Jezebel or whoever else, as long as their articles shine a light on men's issues and aren't full of lies (or if they are, for exposing them) they're alright to post here, as far as I'm concerned.

That doesn't mean they can't publish articles that are relevant to the sub. Considering the source is a good practice but dismissing an otherwise good article purely because of where it's published is not.

one of my female coworkers said that her son continuously had infections because of the extra skin keeping mosture near the head of his penis That's a result of her not cleaning her child properly or she pulled the skin back, not knowing that it's attached pre-adolescence, and created a wound that got infected. Plus, by having her son circumcized she deliberately created a wound that needed extra attention anyway. She didn't actually fix a problem. Also the extra skin is just that... extra skin.…

What would it be comparable to, IYO? What about increasing rates of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, etc., because of lifestyle choices? Should those not get coverage because they are preventable? I think they should get coverage, of course. I think there's a misunderstanding, though.

Primarily because of the toll it takes on women's bodies and the risk to not only 1 li…
/r/PurplePillDebate08/03/17 05:42 PM

I'm not speaking about birth control, only that ED is a medical condition, caused by a physical or psychological malfunction or damage, and as such should fall under medical coverage. It's not comparable to pregnancy unless there's a complication, in which case treatment for that complication should also be covered. Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not American, but I assume that certain birthcontrol are used to treat menstrual conditions and as such are also covered by Medicaid in those cases.

Yeah, no one says "never hit a woman...or a weak man!" Most weak men know they can't win a 1on1 fight so tend to avoid physical conflict. I'd like to think that most women are smart enough to come to the same conclusion and just as capable of dealing with the consequences if they do pick a fight.

And I remember reading or hearing that Erin Pizzy, a UK feminist said long ago that women are as violent as men. She founded the world's first domestic abuse shelter and noted early on that many of the women in her shelter were as or more violent than their partners. Pointing this out publicly eventually led to her recieving threats and moving out of the country.

You'd be right if she was trying to make up for the girls' inherent shortcomings, but that's not what she's doing.

Her actions are undeniably sexist tho, even if she doesn't act out of sexist beliefs. Note: I do think she's a sexist cunt (it's ok, she's an aussie).

It says to audiences that the sex of a woman and its appeal is more important than other characteristics that have nothing to do with her biology.

they have an obvious trend to please male audiences at the expense of female characters and players. Just because female gamers aren't being catered to to the same extent doesn't mean it comes at their expense.

Not adressing men's rights until women's rights are adressed (and solved) doesn't necessarily harm men's rights.

Still, we should try to bring those men to their senses. In my opinion one of the biggest obstacles the MRM faces is indifference.

Promoting empathy for men and trying to counter male disposability is an important goal, in my opinion.

You value your own opinion higher than any other, and actively disregard and mock any differing opinion. I've done no such thing, you're projecting again. You're the one who's dismissing the circumcised men who feel wronged by saying things like: I've only laughed at those who are worked up over it You don't feel…

There aren't millions of young boys being tortured. There litterally are. Do you even know how circumcisions are done? There are only hundreds of grown men unsatisfied with themselves and they have decided that this is why. This is hilarious, you spout this kind of crap and dare to call us self-righteous.

No, but refusing to acknowledge it's a violation of human rights and dismissing the harm it causes because of a self-centered view is. No one cares if you're fine with being circumcised. We're not doing this for you we're doing this for future infant boys.

If you're familiar with Schrödinger's Cat (a cat in a closed container is both alive and dead until you open the box and observe it (basically)) then Schrödinger's Rapist means all men are both rapists and not-rapists. Aside from the obvious ridiculous notion of viewing all men as potential threats all the time there's also the fact that men can never prove they're not-rapists.

Unless women are stripped of a default right they currently enjoy that is only returned if they register for Selective Service (ie: they're placed in the same position as men) then no, I doubt they'll register in any meaningfull number. Even if that happens, I still have my doubts that women will register. Rather, I think there'll be (justified) feminist outrage and the stripped right will be returned without obligation (as it is now). No change for men, of course.

Yeah, I somewhat agree with his view that focusing on male issues should be our priority rather than tearing down feminism. Still, how we'd accomplish that when feminism monopolizes all things gender-related and is counter to many of the MRM's stances is something I can't figure out. The majority here figure the only or best way to reach the point where we're free to focus on men's issues is to first push feminism off it's pedestal.

A woman saying she's not a feminist (despite the negative connotations of the word), is like me saying I don't support mens rights. It would be like you saying you don't support the MRM, which is perfectly fine if you disagree with commonly expressed ideas within the movement. The same goes for feminism. People can avoid affiliation with a movement without compromising their support to the concept, idea or belief that movement claims to represent.

If bringing attention to men's issues belittles women's (and apparently other) issues then it stands to reason that the constant attention women's issues have been getting these past decades have detracted from men's (and apparently other) issues.

The problem with feminists who say that is that they still buy into the Patriarchy. So while they may acknowledge that men struggle it usually comes down to "Patriarchy hurts men too" and, in their minds, the best way to end the few men's issues they acknowledge is to continue their fight againt Patriarchy. By challenging and changing societal expectations and limitations of women they unravel Patriarchy and doing so will, as a result (or side effect), free men of their restrictions aswell. Thes…

This whole thing is just more rejection of dogma, not religious dogma but it's all par for the course.

It was a father-daughter dance, why would that be an important event to her? Unless she's an idiot and expected no one to notice how her presence went against the spirit of the event (to allow fathers and daughters to bond in an encouraging environment without interference from anyone else, something that's sorely needed these days). The same goes for the mother-son baseball games. This 'all-inclusion or all-exclusion' mindset is retarded and only separates people further.

No, but then that's not the point. Severity affects people's outrage and their ability to tolerate, but it doesn't change whether or not something is morally right.

The reply to that tends to be something along the lines of "but when a woman aborts there is no child, when a man walks away from his responsibility there IS a child".

It always struck me as odd how young, attractive women complain about being objectified through unwanted attention and advances, yet older women seem to desperately cling to their sexual appeal and actively seek out male attention (cougars, f.ex.).

Then they aren't egalitarians. If they were egalitarians they would be fighting for women's and men's rights, not just for one.

True, some people handle traumatic events better than others. Some bounce back relatively easily and others carry it around for the rest of their lives. Murder has a straightforward effect on the victim, but it can have additional effects on surviving loved ones, providing potential for collateral trauma. Personally, I see no merrit in arguing about which is worse, but one is certainly viewed as more situationally acceptable than the other.

Because a significant number of issues we deal with are, in one way or another, related to feminism and feminism deals primarily with women.

I don't know what other reasons the WHO has for backing the findings, I could speculate but that won't get us anywhere. The only thing that is certain is that the medical merrits of circumcision are contested at best (reduces HIV risk) and fabricated at worst (prevents UTIs).

Female genital mutilation (or female circumcision) has never been shown to have any health benefits. No research has ever been done to find out. The cost/benefit ratio is far outweighed for FGM, given the level of invasiveness of the procedure, and the serious infection, etc., risks, which don't exist for circumcision in the main (and don't you even try to convince me FGM is anywhere close to male circumcision in terms of that criterion). You're making the common mistake of reducing the umbrella…

Exactly, false accusations can be made without intent to cause harm in which case there should be no punishment (perhaps a word of caution for future allegations). The accuser could simply be mistaken about the identity of her attacker or misinterpretted the accused's actions (which might seem ridiculous at first, but keep in mind the increasingly conflated definition of what constitutes rape).

In my opinion the Men's Rights Movement is a response to Feminism, we seek to balance things out by providing opposition on and bringing attention to issues that primarily affect men. I think with many of us this stems from an egalitarian stance, if there was no Feminism then there'd be no need for a Men's Rights Movement and we'd call ourselves Egalitarians.

It does matter that there are "good" feminists because they are different from the "bad." There are woman on this thread that support our issues, and some of them support women's rights too. Being a woman and/or pro-women's rights does not make someone a feminist. Feminism is an ideology, it has subsets like every ideology does but they all share the same core beliefs. It's those beliefs many here disagree with. And no, those beliefs are not "women and men deserve equal rights". That being said,…

There is a difference between being promiscuous and looking promiscuous.

There's a male equivalent too, of course, they're typically called "douchebags". They also wear clothing that shows off their "goods" ie: tight, short-sleeved shirts (or no shirt at inappropriate times/venues) to accentuate their upper body muscles, they often use …

Women are not disproportionately victims or domestic violence or rape (for more info and statistics, I kindly direct you to the sidebar). It's also not just some of the services, every single service that exists to help victims of crimes or help people protect themselves from crime is available to women, but not all of them are available to men.

It is mutilation, look up the definition in pretty much every dictionary. Sexual abuse is a stretch, this is true, but it can't be argued that it isn't torture when only an ineffective amount of anestethics can be used for the procedure and it's done to the most sensitive area of a boy's body.
