1	A girl at my college posted this on Facebook. She got several comments that agreed, all from other women. No, it isn't. Check any dictionary (online or otherwise) for reference, and particularly look outside of dictionaries for usage examples. Almost never is it used that way.	/r/MensRights	26/04/13 04:30 PM
1	A girl at my college posted this on Facebook. She got several comments that agreed, all from other women. A woman is never a dude. A dude is a man. That's what the word means.	/r/MensRights	26/04/13 11:27 AM
1	Peter Lloyd: 'Why I'm suing my gym over their sexist women-only hours' - Men told they can't use gym because women self loath their bodies and men make it worse. That would make sense, and that means GabbiKat is quite dishonest in his phrasing.	/r/MensRights	20/04/13 08:14 AM
0	Peter Lloyd: 'Why I'm suing my gym over their sexist women-only hours' - Men told they can't use gym because women self loath their bodies and men make it worse. Fortunately, there are far more gays than 1 in 20.	/r/MensRights	19/04/13 10:22 PM
1	Peter Lloyd: 'Why I'm suing my gym over their sexist women-only hours' - Men told they can't use gym because women self loath their bodies and men make it worse. Are there also straight-only gyms, I wonder? What an uproar that would cause.	/r/MensRights	19/04/13 10:21 PM
6	Peter Lloyd: 'Why I'm suing my gym over their sexist women-only hours' - Men told they can't use gym because women self loath their bodies and men make it worse. It must be very empowering to shy away from a complete gender due to the non-existent threat of potential judgment. Very empowering indeed.	/r/MensRights	19/04/13 10:19 PM
12	He says he said no to sex, now says no to child support Yes, you did.	/r/MensRights	03/03/13 07:56 PM
11	He says he said no to sex, now says no to child support Yes, in the same way I'm paying for cleaning the air that you breathe.	/r/MensRights	03/03/13 07:55 PM
20	He says he said no to sex, now says no to child support From the rapist mother, like it should. I'm not sure how you don't follow the simple reasoning that victims are victims, considering it's not much of a logical leap you have to take to admit something is what it is.	/r/MensRights	03/03/13 05:21 PM
19	He says he said no to sex, now says no to child support You're none too bright.	/r/MensRights	03/03/13 05:13 PM
4	He says he said no to sex, now says no to child support No, he shouldn't have to. Nobody should be forced to relive or report traumas unless they're fully willing to do so, especially if they will get stigmatized as a result, increasing their suffering. End. Fin. Period. No argument. This conversation is over.	/r/MensRights	03/03/13 05:09 PM
15	In a high school sexting scandal involving 20 students, the 12 male students have been suspended, while the female students receive no punishment. That's the joke.	/r/MensRights	01/03/13 01:28 AM
4	Victim is labeled a predator because he's a boy. Boy is a 4 year old preschooler who received oral sex from a 5 year old female preschooler. It already happened before, you know, so it isn't "now" by any stretch that it became predatory. You may remember that other kid that was prosecuted by the DA for playing doctor (actually playing doctor, not receiving blowjobs).	/r/MensRights	04/02/13 08:01 PM
1	Victim is labeled a predator because he's a boy. Boy is a 4 year old preschooler who received oral sex from a 5 year old female preschooler. It's funny how you have a sarcasm tag while it's spot-on with how it is really perceived by the general populace, or at least the law.	/r/MensRights	04/02/13 07:58 PM
1	Craigslist sperm donor forced to pay child support to lesbian couple despite giving up parental rights. My head hurts. never works when people go against state laws That's what I hope she's trying to say.	/r/MensRights	01/01/13 12:24 PM
3	GF won't blow BF: "Respect her issues with it." BF stops reciprocating: "You're selfish." Gotta love r/relationships. Why should there be a deep-seated issue? Maybe it's inexperience or stigma, but some people just don't like giving oral sex, or receiving it for that matter.	/r/MensRights	20/12/12 02:07 PM
1	Circumcised men are 4.5 times more likely to suffer from erectile dysfunction. That's why you deleted your account, right? Because it's sarcasm. Let me tell you: sarcasm would've been fine, but you actually misreasoned, with or without sarcasm. That's stupidity, no matter your intent.	/r/MensRights	09/12/12 04:56 PM
8	Circumcised men are 4.5 times more likely to suffer from erectile dysfunction. A blessing to be mutilated involuntarily? If you chose it, sure, but now you have no choice if or when you do start suffering from ED.	/r/MensRights	09/12/12 10:22 AM
2	Circumcised men are 4.5 times more likely to suffer from erectile dysfunction. I wouldn't be. I take antidepressants, and there's about a 1000x more risk of having adverse effects like sexual dysfunction on them than there is of activating latent (keyword: latent) schizophrenia when smoking weed. In fact, you'd be far more prone to several adverse effects drinking caffeine regularly than getting schizophrenia from smoking weed. And, I say these things as a person who fucking loathes weed.	/r/MensRights	09/12/12 10:20 AM
9	Circumcised men are 4.5 times more likely to suffer from erectile dysfunction. You are a regular ole class retard. The non-circumcised people also have consumed sugar. They suffered from ED at 4.5x the rate. Ergo: there's a statistically significant correlation between circumcision and ED, not between sugar and ED. Correlation doesn't equal causation, but correlation does equal correlation. You're quoting random mantras that you apparently fail to grasp, even in their simplicity. Lay off the sugar -- it may help your brain function normally. EDIT: Was that too harsh? Let m…	/r/MensRights	09/12/12 10:17 AM
3	Woman forces man to have sex with her at knife point, stabs him when he refuses - article does not mentionthe word "rape". Humanist?	/r/MensRights	28/08/12 10:24 AM
6	TIL that in 2010 more enlisted US soldiers committed suicide (468) than died in combat (462). Male privilege. This is pure nonsense. The military pays more than welfare; they assumed a protective role usually without knowledge of the psychological, social and physical consequences; they have cultural pressure to take such roles. Fuck off until you have an actual argument, rather than simply mocking those presented.	/r/MensRights	04/06/12 09:41 AM
4	TIL that in 2010 more enlisted US soldiers committed suicide (468) than died in combat (462). Male privilege. A good video on this topic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSb-ok65KGI TL;DW: Yes, they pretty much all are.	/r/MensRights	04/06/12 09:38 AM
1	I love the idea that people think that men can't be self-conscious about their bodies as well.. Yes, and the point is: they need to gain weight. Muscle mass. What's harder to do? Lose weight and build muscle or only lose weight? Sum of the parts, one is automatically harder, and it's the male variant.	/r/MensRights	19/05/12 08:32 AM
1	I love the idea that people think that men can't be self-conscious about their bodies as well.. Can I come on here and link these few things here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypergymnasia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exercise_bulimia Check prevalence rates please. (I suffered from both at different times in my life. I was exercising myself to death. This was around the same time I was also an amphetamine addict.)	/r/MensRights	19/05/12 08:25 AM
5	Single man wanted a child, hired a surrogate, had a baby. That is a view perfectly compatible with socialism. EDIT: The few downvoters are retarded. Socialism =/= have all liberal rights. It's a system of economics. God, your stupidity, it hurts.	/r/MensRights	08/04/12 01:34 AM
6	“Yes, yes, remember the old rule: Whenever researchers find something to be true of females, they will interpret and report it as evidence of female superiority. As I’ve pointed out many times, this rush to patronize women reveals an underlying fear that women actually are inferior.” This is, verbatim, what I said about Rexona's new 'strong' campaign. If they really were as strong as you claim, they would not need constant validation from external sources. (The same counts for men, of course.)	/r/MensRights	29/02/12 12:04 AM
19	Ohio mother sentenced for sex with two young boys and giving them alchohol and drugs - while her husband was in prison on a felony domestic violence charge She was battered, and therefore is incapable of normal thought, and obviously can not see the harm in sexually assaulting and drugging teenage boys. Makes perfect sense.	/r/MensRights	27/02/12 04:40 PM

6	"A runaway slave is the worst kind of slave - one that absolutely refuses to serve his massa. My reasons were simple... if the state forces me not to be a father than I will not pretend to be one. I will certainly not pay 75% of my take home pay to someone who hates me" Do not, EVER, blame the victim. What's next, blaming his children for being conceived?	/r/MensRights	05/02/12 06:18 PM

I will certainly not pay 75% of my take home pay to someone who hates me" Not the issue. He cannot even visit, let alone 'raise,' the children that are 'his responsibility' and so the court order decided for him. It's perfectly reasonable, and you should be able to see that.	/r/MensRights	05/02/12 05:52 PM

1	Some good, snappy comebacks to common pro circumcision arguments Of course, even that is not perfect. Not having an appendix does not change anything. Removing a foreskin does significantly alter derived pleasure. Perhaps 'cutting out one lung decreases your chance of lung cancer' would have fitted better.	/r/MensRights	31/01/12 04:15 PM
2	Some good, snappy comebacks to common pro circumcision arguments There's a benefit to not having lungs, as you can't die of inhaling toxins. Let's cut those out, too.	/r/MensRights	31/01/12 08:40 AM
3	Some good, snappy comebacks to common pro circumcision arguments That's simply incorrect. Half a liver is inherently worse than a whole liver, all else being the same. Same with half a lung, one kidney, etc.	/r/MensRights	31/01/12 08:37 AM
4	Some good, snappy comebacks to common pro circumcision arguments No, YOU are wrong when you choose to ignore the fact that cut penises are not as functional as uncut ones. YOU are stating the opinion here, he stated a fact.	/r/MensRights	31/01/12 08:36 AM
0	The woman was arrested for having sex with a minor. But the court suspended the woman's sentence when the boy told the court that the couple are in love and they plan to get married. No, it isn't. Stockholm syndrome refers to the sequence of events, not the context. If he decided he was in love AFTER the event of abuse, as he apparently did, it's very possibly true that he took the sex to imply love before he actually had feelings of love. That'd how the Ben Franklin effect works as well. You justify AFTER you comply. Ergo: Stockholm Syndrome.	/r/MensRights	26/01/12 05:41 PM
12	The woman was arrested for having sex with a minor. But the court suspended the woman's sentence when the boy told the court that the couple are in love and they plan to get married. Stockholm syndrome has nothing to do with age.	/r/MensRights	26/01/12 08:50 AM
12	We tell boys not to cry, then wonder about male suicide: In courageously speaking of his depression, ex-footballer Dean Windass has helped to highlight a crisis in men's mental health I definitely notice this. Many guys, myself included, internalize their frustrations because it seems like the normal thing to do, and so it is incredibly difficult to solve rather than suppress your emotional problems. It doesn't seem healthy at all.	/r/MensRights	19/01/12 09:45 AM

3	The truth about women abusing men - YouTube They went to out to investigate whether there was a substantial difference in the way the common individual perceived abuse towards either gender within the American society. Say that, jokingly, this was only the case for this city... so what? It's abhorrent for it to even occur. On that note, your objections are becoming absurd. The zeitgeist can change radically over the course of ten years, so of course this would be a momentary set of observations.

1	Anti-prostitution feminists want to take away a woman's right to sell her body for sex, demonises men I'm sorry, but I'm going to cut this off right now. 'Ironically' should have been used in reference to another clause in that sentence or a preceding sentence. If he wanted it to refer to what was ironic, which was the sentence thereafter, that should've been an added clause so it could conjoin with 'Ironically' in the previous sentence. Instead he chose for it to conjoin with the second clause, which means my interpretation is the only one used, and the only one correct, which makes his stateme…	/r/MensRights	13/12/11 12:41 PM
1	Anti-prostitution feminists want to take away a woman's right to sell her body for sex, demonises men There was no further clause it could have been in reference to. That is the point. It could've been a sentence like this: Ironically, like x, clause to which ironically refers. But it didn't. It was this phrase exactly: Ironically, it is somewhat like the war on drugs. He could also have said: Ironically, somewhat like the war on drugs, clause. Or: Ironically, much like the war on drugs, clause. He specifically did not do that. Which means 'ironically' works in conjunction with 'it is,' which is…	/r/MensRights	12/12/11 11:59 PM
1	Anti-prostitution feminists want to take away a woman's right to sell her body for sex, demonises men No, the logical interpretation should be that which it grammatically appears to mean. That sentence cannot be interpreted the way you state, because it specifically denotes the entire second clause as what 'Ironically' is referencing. The sentence is grammatically flawed, and that has nothing to do with interpretation. I understand fully well his position and the argument he made, but when you explicitly put a comma there you are causing a confusion not by ambiguity, but by linguistic error. And…	/r/MensRights	12/12/11 11:08 PM
5	Anti-prostitution feminists want to take away a woman's right to sell her body for sex, demonises men Ironically. You use that word... PROTIP: Coincidentally. EDIT for clarity: He said 'Ironically it is like the war on drugs,' not 'It is ironic, like the war on drugs.' This means he said the fact that they are similar is ironic, which is not the case. Instead, it's what makes them similar that is ironic. Ergo, "coincidentally it's like the war on drugs, which ironically harms instead of benefits." Don't blame me because you lack reading comprehension. I'm looking at you, Gareth.	/r/MensRights	11/12/11 10:49 PM
2	“My goal in life is to change the entire social and economic structure of Western civilization, to make it a feminist world” -Marilyn French died in 2009. Her epitaph should be: "Mission Accomplished" Not all women are like that?	/r/MensRights	11/12/11 10:07 PM
5	"Women who commit violence may be at the end of their rope...especially if they have been abused...usually an act of absolute desperation." Ergo: they are worth more. You didn't contradict his point, you validated it.	/r/MensRights	11/12/11 03:16 PM

2	Hell hath no fury... the moment a 4ft 9in woman was arrested for pummeling her 'cheating' boyfriend for five minutes as he cowered on the train That's not the end of it. You say "minimal force to defend himself," whereas that woman is beating the shit out of him with no risk of prosecution. So, it's actually allowed that women beat the shit out of men, yet men can't even use minimal force? That's even more of an imbalance than you'd assume.	/r/MensRights	07/12/11 02:08 AM
1	Hell hath no fury... the moment a 4ft 9in woman was arrested for pummeling her 'cheating' boyfriend for five minutes as he cowered on the train Well, actually, it would be less worthy of blaming if the victim was not passed out while being raped. In one she vocalized her non consent, which is worse than when she wasn't awake to do so, because he didn't forcibly vandalize her in quite the same way. (You shouldn't do either, and I'm not defending either.) That said, it doesn't really detract from gprime's point: if the crime has been finalized, you are simply initiating violence. That's not excusable, given that we have law enforcement th…	/r/MensRights	07/12/11 02:01 AM
