What this tells me is that younger men are paying attention to what their mothers did to their fathers I'm not even that young, but as someone who watched my mom destroy my dad over resentment at being 'stuck' with the kids while he was at work and just believing she could do better elsewhere, yeah, that's exactly what happened.

I believe the implication is that it is a men's issue because the victims of female pedophiles are most often boys and young men, and those incidents tend to be received significantly differently than the reverse. As has been mentioned other places in the thread, takes like "man, I wish I was that lucky in school," "Hey, I'd let her assault me," etc. are fairly common, and the OP is saying people such as them and people who actively cover for such women are vile. He even cites in his post a conv…

Personally, I just point out that this is the same logic used by pro-life people that feminists reject as sexist and trying to subvert their rights. They can only really have three responses to this: A) Double down and say they're ok with that standard. Fair enough, at least they're consistent. A harsh standard is better than a double standard, imo. B) Admit it's not fair once it's framed in terms they can appreciate. Changed a very small amount of minds with this one, mostly on people trying to…

Sometimes it is about cost, though. Pink is among the most expensive pigments to make, and when you compare products like shampoo or other toiletries, ones marketed to women tend to have many more expensive ingredients. That said, demand goes hand in hand with that, since all that crap is in there because women want it, or at the very least, continue to buy it.

My first bully was a girl. From day one of school, she simply decided that she didn't like me (or, to hear some of the adults tell it, that she did) and would simply follow me around any time we weren't at our desks smacking me, pushing me, and generally being an abusive pain in the ass. She would tell me her dad would pay her to do these things, and basically just pick on me for being the small kid.

Do you recall that study that came out maybe a year or so back reporting different mortality rates for male vs female doctors? That's exactly what most media reporting on it and the feminists citing it said; women are better at being doctors, are smarter, work harder, etc. Turned out, if you read the study itself, the male doctors were working something like 30% more hours and seeing almost 50% more patients in that time. The amount of extra patients alone would have explained the higher mortali…

I agree that discrimination is not a one way street, but even with that in mind I fail to see how terms like "benevolent discrimination" are productive or helpful in any way to the larger conversation, at least not to the point where I would say "both are right to some degree". In my experience, the term is used to obfuscate, shift goal posts, and otherwise present evidence against one's faulty claims as proof for it, instead. Like you said, the discrimination in this case is heavily stacked aga…

The father of a friend of mine recently finalized his divorce on his knife-wieldingly-crazy wife, and my friend was complaining to me about him being raked over the coals to be responsible for her through alimony because of "benevolent sexism."

When I was 2-3 years old, I had an aunt (my dad's aunt, really) that would chase me around the place saying "letta me see you bish!" (short for bishidil(sp?), slang for penis in her native language.) If she caught me, she'd pull my pants down and do weird, sometimes painful, but seemingly non-sexual things to my junk like yank on it, or flick it, or pinch it or whatever while I cried. After a minute or two, I guess she'd get bored and go away. Luckily I didn't see her very often, but this would …

While she'd probably not appreciate the source of the article, this has some gems in it. Similar here Again, you're probably better off not just sending the article and instead citing the primary sources, but consider the articles a shopping list, as it were. These are more insidious, in my mind, than a modern quote because it shows the kind of ideas that formed the inception of the movement, as opposed to the notion that it started pure and was somehow corrupted in the modern day.

I don't feel like my parents wronged me either, but that's mostly because they are not doctors, and were listening to the advice of a doctor who had lots to gain and nothing to lose by pushing the procedure.

I get that, and I agree they should be able to send you receipts for any payments you have made without this nonsense delaying you. I'm simply pointing out that it's not a case of "won't send to the father, only the mother", so much as "won't send to the father or the mother, only the student."

To be fair, if he lived on his own, they wouldn't be willing to send the records to either of you.

In a similar boat, so I may not have this 100% correct, and I don't know what the actual charge leveled against him is, but it appears that the issue is that this man is a landlord who entered an agreement with some tenants wherein they exchange sex for rent.

Unfortunately, I don't think there's anything you can do regarding that unless you included such funding in the divorce agreement, and even then, I'm not certain how well it would hold up. When my parents split, my dad tried something like this, setting the terms that he would pay 2/3's of college expenses for his children if my mom would agree to cover the remaining 1/3. She agreed, they signed on it, and the divorce proceeded. My mom basically ignored the hell out of that, to the point where s…

In America, a lot. 77% of men are circumcised, from what I gather. The population of Jewish people in the US is estimated at about 2.5%.

I agree with the notion that not all people who claim to be feminists are shitty people, and even that many of them are not specifically anti-men, but I think that is an issue of labeling. If they claim to be a feminist, but do not believe in patriarchy theory, they are an egalitarian, or even a women's advocate.

We agree that equality should go both ways, but in the US, Canada, and much of the Western world, there are in fact laws that exclusively benefit women, often at the cost of men. There are no such laws that benefit men at the cost of women. The real movers of the feminist movement have been working hard to keep it that way, while the ones on message boards dismiss them as extremists, but do nothing for the situation. It's great that we can agree equality is important, but as long as the real act…

Rights are enforced by laws. There is no right that simply 'is' without laws to protect it. Furthermore, there are no rights under laws in the western world that men have that women lack. None. People aren't trying to label the movement, they are labeling the parts of the movement that are actually moving, as opposed to the ones saying "But those are extremists". Unfortunately, it's those extremists that are, for example, successfully lobbying the governor of Florida in 2013 and 2016 to veto sha…

No, I maintain that the ones that don't get to set or influence the policies don't matter, at least not with regards to policy, or deciding who is and isn't a 'real feminist'. The coffeehouse feminists aren't the gatekeepers of the movement. If they were, then from what those in my circles have told me, Anita Sarkeesian, Naomi Wolf, and the heads of the National Organization of Women would no longer be allowed to use the label. Additionally, I reject the notion that everyone is a feminist by def…

I'm not interpreting that as "only men are mistreated" or even as "women are not mistreated" but there can be many reasons for any case that don't boil down to only discrimination or oppression. For your point about disrespect elsewhere in the thread, while I agree that it would be nice if everyone could just be respectful to each other, I believe that is a dangerous thing to legislate, and personally would rather live in a world where disrespect happens, and people simply learn to deal with it …

Actually, men lack the automatic in-group bias towards their own gender that women have. Here is one study on the topic. You should be able to find more easily if you want.

Unfortunately, the ones who are more vocal are the ones with the platform, with the lobbying money, or sometimes even with seats in congress, senate, parliament. The ones who are more vocal are the ones that matter, regardless of how many people who identify as feminist look at them and shake their heads.

No one is arguing with that statement. Their point is that women being elevated is not equality, either. That said, you may be correct, and there may be situations still where a woman is not given the same chance as a man. But if so, what makes you think there are not also situations where a man will not be given the same chance as a woman? Hell, some of the arguments above are illustrating exactly that point, but you seem to misinterpret them to mean "women should not be treated equally", which…

Good on your department. I'm of the mind that if they can carry the literal and figurative weight, and want the job, let them take a crack at it. Unfortunately, many departments are easing back standards in the name of 'equality', and it only took me a quick googling to find a number of different articles and sources about this issue from last year alone. New York seems to be mentioned a lot, but I'm sure if I looked through more of them I would find stories of it in other states, as well. Edit:…

Pretty much, yeah. You are also hosting the event, so you need to be at the theater an hour before screen time to collect tickets. The theater is basically just allowing you to rent their space via the Tugg service.
/r/MensRights20/12/16 10:10 PM

Not with that attitude, there isn't. Starting a Tugg is easy and free, all you need to do is spread the word.
/r/MensRights20/12/16 06:21 PM

They do. Tugg sets you up with someone who coordinates the event and handles communication between yourself and the theater. You need to select the theater, but if that fails for one reason or another (the first theater I chose refused to touch it), the rep will help coordinate with you to find one that will agree to host it.

I think a screening in NYC already happened. If you are near the city and don't mind a bit of travel, the one in NJ only has two weeks to sell another 75 tickets, or it won't run at all. If you are not close to NYC, getting a Tugg started is easy and free.

You can set one up yourself. It's pretty easy, and free to do if you use Tugg.

Only two weeks for the New Jersey showing to sell another 75 tickets. The event will not happen if the seats are not sold. Anyone in the area thinking about going, the time is now, as the deadline for tickets is Jan 3rd.

Depends on the location. In the US, these laws are regulated on the state level. I am glad I am in one of the states that does not recognize these kinds of unions.

Yeah, I gathered that somewhere around the part where it dipped pretty close to fallacy fallacy. Maybe it's best not to show them the cases where someone can be jailed for getting their ass kicked by their spouse.
/r/MensRights14/12/16 10:16 PM

I agree wholeheartedly, and this is a huge problem in many countries. Hell, just the fact that the law exists opens the door for the same precedent set in France to become a reality in the UK, which is basically the point I was trying to make.
/r/MensRights14/12/16 09:59 PM

I don't know about you, but I can't dismiss the fact that such cases do occur simply because they happen in another country than the one stated by u/bufedad , especially since, from what I did find, the law he cites does allow such things to happen in Britain now, so we may see that change in short order. Even if that were not the case, though, I find the fact that it happens at all to be worrying, regardless of the location. Furthermore, without finding the text of the law, I cannot conclude he…

Well, considering the fact that there is legal precedent in France for that very scenario, as well as the fact that the law he cites does allow such scenarios to repeat in Britain, I wouldn't go so far as to say he was lying. Again, I failed to find a place online I could read the actual text of the law, so for all I know, it actually does favor women over men in its language, but if that is the case, none of the articles (all of which painted it as a grand victory for women in Britain) felt the…

Here is a case from France where a man was ordered to pay damages to his wife for this reason. I looked into the emotional abuse law from Britain cited by u/bufedad , and while it does include withholding affection as emotional abuse, thus opening the door to that kind of behavior and litigation, nowhere in my research did I find any indication that the law only applies to one gender or the other. If I missed that part somehow, I would appreciate being corrected. That said, I have so far only be…

Not quite. The word women has the word men in it because men used to be the gender neutral word to describe humanity, with wifman, which eventually became woman, and wereman, which eventually phased out sometime in the 1300's, being the words that referred to the two sexes. Meanwhile, rhetoric aside, the word feminism literally means "The doctrine of the feminine", the femin part referring obviously to femininity, and ism being the suffix used to denote a doctrine or ideology. To compare the two…

I tell people all the time to try re-reading the articles they send me as 'proof' by replacing the word 'Men' with 'Jews', but to see there's a whole sub of that... I feel like it's simultaneously the funniest and saddest part of my day.

Is it easy to dismiss two young boys ranting on the bus? Perhaps. It's less easy to dismiss a thread full of links to research that shows teachers of both genders do, in fact, score boys lower, in general. With that in mind, you're not at all wrong in your thinking, and here's some data to back that point up.

Oh, the public humiliation bit was alive and well back then, as well. Keep in mind that was the punishment for being the victim of spousal abuse. The punishments for perpetrating spousal abuse were even more severe.

Your argument gave me that impression, yes. Very few feminists I know consider the declaration to be a fair and balanced vision of equality. The ones that do are the same ones that are pointed to when the others need an example for "No True Feminist". More often, reading the text demonstrates that the philosophy that many claim is ruining modern feminism was there in the beginning, informing its very foundation.

Women are not the enemy, on this I agree. At the same time, feminists try very hard to make sure we all equate feminism(an ideology) with all women(half the population), despite the fact that not all women identify as feminists, and despite the fact that the number of women who do is falling every day. I have one friend I consider to be a somewhat reasonable and rational feminist, she acknowledges, and at times even fights for, men's issues, but at the same time she refuses to let go of the idea…

Equal rights and protection under the law, especially with regards to reproductive and custody rights, as well as more fairness in courtroom matters. Further, when the narratives of rape culture, the oppression of patriarchy, and similar ideas are recognized as the hateful rhetoric that it is, and cast down into the place where people look back on the mistakes of the past and wonder how people could ever believe such things.

The problem with the argument that a toxic subset of feminists is responsible is that the most toxic of them are the ones lobbying to keep the laws cited by \u\x-system the same. They are the ones teaching gender studies classes that drill patriarchy theory, rape culture theory, and other man=bad rhetoric into the heads of students. They are the ones in positions of government bemoaning, for example, that Women are the primary victims of war". Furthermore, it's basically enabled by all the ones …

Anyone in the area interested in the screening should follow the link and preorder their ticket. The screening will only happen with enough support, and I figured here would be a good place to start.

At first I looked at the schedule and lamented the fact that there was no closer screening to me than 4 hours North in Rhode Island. Then I thought "Not with that attitude there isn't" and opened a Tugg for the evening of December 27th in Butler, NJ. If the theater approves, I will post details for anyone local to the area who is interested in helping fund the Tugg and, of course, seeing the film. That said, the theater may not approve, and if they don't, I intend to keep looking for somewhere t…
