That woman shouldn't have parked like she did, but the dude shouldn't have gone all Vigilante and try to force her to follow the rules. He caused all the backup. She didn't have the right to park crazy and he didn't have the right to demand she park straight. The line of cars behind him shouldn't have to pay for these three people's issues. Move on, find another spot, and call the garage security. I really hope they can ticket idiots who park like crazy. The rest of u… | /r/MensRights | 11/11/12 04:47 PM |

I tend to stick to issues more of what the government/police will do and leave some of it to each person. Like I like being a woman, I like being girly. I want to scream at a spider and have somebody else kill it. I like what makes me a woman... but I want the same legal rights as anybody else.

Even though he is being attacked and harassed, the conductor and other men tell him not to defend himself.Oh, no women can and do hit men too. Little doubt there. But society has never suggested that a wife hitting her husband is okay... they just didn't believe it actually happened, ya know? Or they don't believe it could cause the man any damage or hurt him. So a slightly different dynamic there. | /r/MensRights | 11/11/12 02:59 AM |
| 1 | Crazy girl won't let go of guy's shirt on subway after she mistakes him as someone else. Even though he is being attacked and harassed, the conductor and other men tell him not to defend himself.Not really. It only appears different to us, because we believe adult women are completely capable of being rational free agents. The societal view that created the situation that allowed "disciplining" your wife was based on the view that she wasn't capable of free agency and therefore the responsible person (husband) became the person who needed to be able to manage her behaviour. Before she was married that person would be her father. The connection is obvious. That may have been why society … | /r/MensRights | 11/11/12 02:53 AM |

Even though he is being attacked and harassed, the conductor and other men tell him not to defend himself.Without said original documents in hand I reckon the semantics of "was it ever legal in America to beat your wife" is an argument nobody will actually win online. I think that the problem was too many husbands got away with beating their wives and the wives had no escape. Did that mean every wife was beaten? Nope. Did that mean the only spouses ever hit were wives? Nope. Did that mean men were always arrested for beating women? Nope. Did police sometimes intervene? Yep.

It hasn't always been illegal. It has at times been socially acceptable. It should never be legal and we should never go back to letting men hit women.

At any rate, it is impossible to prove how she got pregnant unless she confessed.

Another person doesn't have the right to one person's body just because they were drunk. You are not guilty of something simply by being drunk, it is not illegal to be drunk in a bar. It is illegal in many states to have sex with a drunk person. Perhaps the silly thing is to go to a bar in order to have sex with a drunk person??

There won't be that extra burden. If a man rapes me, I have the additional concern of getting pregnant. That's why this additional fear exists towards "Schrodinger's rapist".

In fact, all women have the right to dress whatever way they want without being called sluts that asked to be raped because of how they chose to dress. Men don't have that problem, do they? So, of course this is a woman's issue, not a men's issue. When a man gets raped by a woman and the judge says to him, "Perhaps men shouldn't w… | /r/MensRights | 24/09/12 02:06 AM |
| 1 | Female in male's face for 2 minutes then hits him. (x-post /r/videos)Honestly, I don't know that that fits the definition of assault in every state. But it sure wasn't kind. Assault is threatening violence, not just getting into someone's personal space, though that could very well vary by state. I don't remember what's she's doing, but if she was yelling at him while holding up her fist to his face, that would be assault. I'm not sure simple yelling is assault, but it would probably be harassment or disturbing the peace or something. | /r/MensRights | 24/09/12 01:55 AM |
| 1 | Female in male's face for 2 minutes then hits him. (x-post /r/videos)Yes, actually in today's world I would indeed wonder if she did something first. In fact, for a very long time we used to assume a woman did something to garner such a reaction. I was certainly raised that way... don't do something to piss a man off cuz then he can hit you. I would wonder in any situation like this what the other person did to warrant and what is wrong with the person going off too. I can't read her mind... for all I know she wants him to hit her so she can be justified in beati… | /r/MensRights | 24/09/12 01:43 AM |
| 0 | Female in male's face for 2 minutes then hits him. (x-post /r/videos)Sorry, but my advice to anyone being attacked is for that person to get away. Not to attack back, not to attack back two fold, but to get away and call 911. A man with integrity will not hit a woman back. A woman with integrity won't hit a man in the first place. Both notions are absurd. If I were to hit a man, it's not going to hurt him, because in order for it to hurt him, it'd hurt me worse first. So, even if I hit him twice before he easily subdued me (like seriously maybe I could kick Danny… | /r/MensRights | 24/09/12 01:32 AM |

If a father is beating a man because the man just sexually abused his young child, honestly I'm not going to be outraged. If I were there, I'd stop it if I could. If someone grabs my ass, I will chew them out and I should have that right to do so. I'd really want to smack them too, but I'm not dumb. Yes, anyone should have that right to tell someone off if they grab their body rudely. I think we both agre… | /r/MensRights | 24/09/12 01:22 AM |

If he grabbed her ass and she turned around and gave him a quick mouthful, that's relevant. If she is yelling at him like that because he asked someone else to the dance, she is completely out of order. I don't know that that girl needs to hide behind whatever "female privilege" you read into things because she looks a lot bigger than him.

| 1 | It was slut walk in London today, can you sum it up in one sentence? (its making me depressed to see the tweets etc.)I don't understand you. There is nothing a man can wear that will have society scream at him that he is being immodest. And I never said that women don't dress for effect, though women tend to dress for other women, not for men. And women never, ever dress in order to be raped. | /r/MensRights | 24/09/12 12:28 AM |

| 1 | Female in male's face for 2 minutes then hits him. (x-post /r/videos)I don't think it devalues men at all. I think it is saying that men are stronger than women so men shouldn't hit back. It shouldn't be okay for anybody to hit anybody, really. But I don't think the point is to devalue men, but just pointing out that men are stronger than women. And none of that suggests that women should ever hit men first or stand there screaming at them in a classroom full of people.

| 1 | 'Tipsy' girls post in r/gonewild - Whose fault is it?If both set out to get drunk and get laid, then no that's not going to be rape. However, a person cannot consent to sex while drunk in my state. So, it is best not to have random drunken sex at all... because someone could accuse you of rape. It's not about reading someone's mind at all. It's about being respectful of yourself and others. A person with real respect will not have sex with a drunk stranger because they will recognize that they can't freely give consent. Drunk people want to do all… | /r/MensRights | 23/09/12 10:38 PM |
| 1 | 'Tipsy' girls post in r/gonewild - Whose fault is it?If you were too drunk to realize what's going on and somebody has sex with you... of course you won't realize it till the next day... so yeah, you wouldn't know you were raped till you found out. Or you're really drunk, somebody starts having sex with you, you panic... pass out... etc. There's several scenarios here. True, if you were just too drunk and ten days later you decide that you were raped, not because you actually feel raped but because you regret it... then that's probably not rape.

| 1 | 'Tipsy' girls post in r/gonewild - Whose fault is it?Rape laws vary by state. I would most definitely say that if a man wakes up the next morning and believe he was raped and he calls the cops that he should be taken seriously. Neither man nor woman should have to worry about being raped, just because they are in public. Obviously, if two drunk people have sex and wake up fine with it the next morning, and truly fine with it, if they go on later to regret it then there's an issue... there's a difference between later regretting it and feeling like… | /r/MensRights | 23/09/12 10:05 PM |
| 1 | 'Tipsy' girls post in r/gonewild - Whose fault is it?If both are drunk and wanted sex, then it isn't rape. But if both are drunk, have sex, and one wakes up having not wanting to have sex, then yeah that is rape. The trouble maxes up when both wake up feeling raped by the other, that's a true legal quandary that needs to be addressed because the law doesn't address that now. I'm crying foul because you are suggesting that men have some right to sleep with drunk girls because 1) it is not rape 2) girls need to not be drunk in public.

| 1 | 'Tipsy' girls post in r/gonewild - Whose fault is it?Sigh... the very definition of rape includes not wanting to have sex in addition to being able to give consent. So, if me and my husband get drunk off our asses and have sex... neither of us can give consent technically speaking. Legally, that could be rape... only when we wake up in the morning we don't consider ourselves raped... therefore we aren't rape victims. There was no rape. The same cannot be said for two drunk strangers who wake up after sex and one feels raped, that then is rape. Yes… | /r/MensRights | 23/09/12 09:33 PM |
| 1 | 'Tipsy' girls post in r/gonewild - Whose fault is it?Yes, the reason why you'd continue to buy a drunk girl drinks does matter. The essence of a predator is to ensure their victim cannot clearly respond. Unfortunately for men, other men have created a pattern of getting a otherwise unwilling girl into bed by getting her drunk. I'm sure we'll see more cases of women doing the same to men, and that is still rape. Legally speaking, it is rape. Having sex against your consent is NOT a bad mistake, it is rape.

| 1 | 'Tipsy' girls post in r/gonewild - Whose fault is it?Taking the argument to the extreme... perhaps I was merely recounting a real life scenario that actually happened??? Any time in my state a person has sex with a drunk person, said drunk person cannot give consent. If that person files rape charges, it would be considered rape and that would go through the legal channels. Chances are there would be no conviction unless there is a pattern of it happening to others. But legally speaking a drunk person cannot give consent to have sex in my state.

| 1 | I realized something subtle about gender perception today on the bus.Uh, that's how a lot of women feel when being stared at, "Am I doing something wrong, am I being offensive. Have I done something to be stared at for?" That's not sexism, that's reality. And yes, some in society would have none to kind for a woman staring at a man like that, I'm certain many would call her a slut. | /r/MensRights | 23/09/12 08:17 PM |

How is the woman liable at all? She isn't. Let's switch roles. A man is out with friends and they are getting wasted. A girl walks into a bar and orders her first drink of the day.

| 1 | 'Tipsy' girls post in r/gonewild - Whose fault is it?Being drunk in public is not a declaration of wanting to have sex. And if someone is really drunk, then they may not even know they went to some place to have sex with someone. None of that is giving consent. | /r/MensRights | 23/09/12 07:53 PM |
| 1 | 'Tipsy' girls post in r/gonewild - Whose fault is it?Why do you continue to buy a drunk girl drinks? If it is to have sex with her, yeah you are treading into the possible rape scenario. Get consent while you are both sober and that may not be an issue. Yeah, men bear more responsibility because this situation used to be all too common, yet the actual convictions for this type of rape aren't actually that high.

In many states a person cannot give consent while drunk, hence it is rape. Neither is a contract legal in some states, if the signer is visibly drunk. Though either one is very hard to prove. | /r/MensRights | 23/09/12 07:31 PM |
