| 1 | Feminazis BTFOActually, what's better for you, taking the stairs or the escalator? Your doctor - fat shaming prick that he is - will suggest the stairs. Better for the heart, better for staying lean, better for regulating your bloodsugar. Of course, some people take the escalator anyway - they qualify for their education due to affirmative action and other such things, which is society allowing them to go through less hoops to arrive at the same location than other people. Unfortunately, it turns out that you… | /r/MensRights | 04/07/17 04:03 AM |
| 3 | Australian media has been viciously attacking Cassie JayeAt least while the children are quite young, I believe you're right. I think males are generally at higher risk, because a young man will eventually try to stand up to an abusive parent - a young woman will more than likely run away - in part since young women can more often find somebody who will try to take care of them and offer them shelter. Not that either solution is great, but you can see how there will be a gender difference. | /r/MensRights | 14/06/17 07:51 PM |
| 5 | Australian media has been viciously attacking Cassie JayeCassie said something smart when the sunrise woman mentioned a tragic story about a boy dying to domestic violence. This was part of the video which was taken down from Cassies facebook. Here's a link to her response: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0titJV8No4#t=9m45s The exchange starts at around 9m30s - I've timestamped the link to 9m 45 seconds. | /r/MensRights | 14/06/17 07:48 PM |
| – | Australian media has been viciously attacking Cassie JayeI really like how she instantly picked up on the fact that the boy was a male victim of domestic violence. That's what you took from that story? (I'm incredulous!) Yes, lady. The victims gender matters to you, so it bloody well ought to matter that the victim was actually male. And to that, I will add: why in the bloody hell did his mother remain in a relationship with domestic violence and endanger him?

| 3 | Is the definition of sexism sexist?That's not true - this is not how the word is commonly used. It is rarely used about discrimination that happens predominantly to men. You can't lecture people using the language. You have to change peoples minds, then the language will change by itself. This is exactly why it's unreasonable to say the feminism is an equality movement as the first definition - it is not. It is primarily a political movement favoring women. | /r/MensRights | 05/02/17 12:38 AM |

I mention this specific circumstance, because I feel this circumstance is mitigating, but also because a confession from the accuser would prove this is what they attempted to do.

When will we see something similar for false rape accusations?I am so fucking happy to see this at the top. Minimum sentencing is one of the worst legal institutions you can have. It's a terrifying idea. You need to be able to be lenient - yes, also in cases of false accusations. Sometimes an underage person may be under severe pressure from a religious parent, and while that is no excuse for doing wrong, a prison sentence may not be the best option for such a person. | /r/MensRights | 24/06/16 08:14 AM |

I can see lowering it to 6 weeks after finding out, which would typically be recognized as the first 6 weeks of pregnancy, but in some circumstances could be more.

| 0 | Came across this when doing my uni work rights online course for engineering studentsNot so fast. There could be variance within different fields - the fact that women in general are more risk averse and prefer more flexible work, does not imply that female stock brokers are more risk averse than male stock brokers... and it would also be almost impossible to find out without examining pretty much the entire field (unless there's a big difference, you need a large sample size, and there probably aren't many females in the field in the first place). | /r/MensRights | 31/03/16 11:01 PM |

Men may be over represented in senior positions, but that is not ipso facto an example of substantive inequality - that completely depends on the individual context. For instance, the male over representation among senior positions could be due to males seeking out specialized training outside of work at a higher rate than females.

It's primarily about throat, mouth and rectal cancers, which men all get in higher numbers than women. Penile cancers are comparatively rare, and while they are probably often caused by HPV, they are not the area worth focusing on for men. Also, I didn't make it about men vs. women.

| 0 | Saw this in the men's room at my local pub.Also, circumcision? Really? I'm sure it would also reduce penile cancer and HIV if we just cut off the entire penis. Have you considered that perhaps there is a reduction because men who are circumcised often experience a stark decline in their sexlives in the 40'es, as they tend to lose feeling in their glans? That maybe this would be the reason that there is reduced risk? You have to weigh in all factors before you make public policy. | /r/MensRights | 20/03/16 04:08 PM |

| 30 | I just wanted to say MRA is awesome!A word of caution - feminism is an incredibly broad and varied community, full of people of all creeds, as is the MRM. As such, you are likely to see (legitimate) criticism of members of the MRM that makes those members out to be terrible. You are also likely to see criticism that goes further, and tries to paint the entire movement with the same brush. A similar thing happens in the other direction as well. Individual feminists come under criticism for legitimate reasons - and the feminist move… | /r/MensRights | 25/12/15 10:55 PM |
| 3 | Accused of molesting the children I babysitI think it's really important that you realize that you have been the victim of a crime. That feeling like absolute shit? That's not indignation at the accusation. That's the feeling of shame and self-loathing that accompanies being a victim. You will likely feel guilty, too. This is completely normal. Unfortunately, being a victim is not an easy lot - especially not for a young man. It is no different to having the snot beaten out of you in a fight - well, except that on this one, it is mainly … | /r/MensRights | 21/12/15 03:43 AM |
| 1 | Woman who pretended to be man to trick friend into sex jailed for eight years | UK news | The GuardianActually, I did want to say one more thing. I'm from Denmark, and to a very limited extent, our laws recognizes forms of subtle coercion as part of statutory rape laws, which is basically what you're talking about. Here, it's known as the 'teacher paragraph', which holds that in relationships where there is a very significant power differential, it's possible to commit statutory rape even against adults. In practice, the law hasn't been tested much, however - age of consent here is a fairly reas… | /r/MensRights | 08/12/15 03:06 PM |
| 1 | Woman who pretended to be man to trick friend into sex jailed for eight years | UK news | The Guardian"So their consent was based on your lies, and that's somehow their fault?" Well clearly their cries of 'yes yes' were deceptive. They didn't really mean them; what they really meant was 'yes, but only if you didn't lie about something in some other situation... keep going, but only if you didn't lie to me about how many kids you have'. This distinction is, completely on it's own, a deception. It's not a self-deception or ignorance; you don't get to plead ignorance of the possibility that somebod… | /r/MensRights | 08/12/15 12:32 PM |
| 2 | Woman who pretended to be man to trick friend into sex jailed for eight years | UK news | The GuardianAs an addendum: I'm not suggesting that this means that lies to people who enter into personal relationships with you could not be lawfully regulated. They could be - but I think that's a terrible idea for other reasons. But if we're going to have a law like that, don't call it rape. It's not the same damn thing. Just isn't. The crime is much more aptly described as sexual seduction by deception. | /r/MensRights | 07/12/15 11:39 PM |
| 2 | Woman who pretended to be man to trick friend into sex jailed for eight years | UK news | The GuardianI don't mean this personally, but your point of view is one of lunacy. You raise one problem yourself, with women and children - but the concept itself is an inherent contradiction. For instance, I do not consent to be a rapist. That is, I only consent to have sex with people, who consent to have sex with me. The moment they no longer consent to have sex with me, I no longer consent to have sex with them. Seems simple enough - anybody reasonable would completely agree with this sentiment. If I m… | /r/MensRights | 07/12/15 11:30 PM |
| 3 | Woman who pretended to be man to trick friend into sex jailed for eight years | UK news | The GuardianI'm speaking in the ethical sense, not the legal sense. Rape is punishment for violating somebody's right to privacy and bodily integrity; you can't exploit these rights, to give you the ability to punish others harsher for strictly less terrible crimes. | /r/MensRights | 07/12/15 03:47 PM |
| 19 | Woman who pretended to be man to trick friend into sex jailed for eight years | UK news | The GuardianWow. 8 years. What a farcical miscarriage of justice. The idea that you can make consent constituent upon outside factors is ludicrous. Consent is something you give to have sex - sex as it is carried out, and sex in the way it is carried out. It can obviously be withdrawn at any time, and must be adhered to in short order - but you get sex, and your partner gets sex, and that's the end of it. That is all consent matters to. Refusing to pay a prostitute after sex does not make your guilty of rap… | /r/MensRights | 07/12/15 02:58 PM |
| 1 | Expelled under new policy, ex-Amherst College student files suit. Amherst accused of ignoring evidence in alleged sexual assaultPerhaps I'm mistaken, but are you sure the place you searched keeps a record of everything on reddit? Further, a lot of subreddits will delete subjects of discussion if they know the community is going to get into a lot of fights over it. It's a kind of ecco chamber effect imposed upon entire communities. | /r/MensRights | 01/12/15 10:13 PM |

| 2 | Entitled "anti-rape-activist" threatens her date and gets angry when he cancels.Hold on, just one brief moment. This is a girl getting her rocks off to a guy completely surrendering all power in the bedroom to the woman, but while still acting as though he is the one taking the initiative. He's worked out this is a great way to woo her. Oh how clever him. Or is he? How did he realize that her fixation on consent is innately sexual to her? That her crusade for ending rape was actually also tied to a specific sexual turn on? Because from where I'm sitting, all of these campus… | /r/MensRights | 26/10/15 09:15 PM |
| 1 | GF wants to split bills by relative income. BF finds it a bit weird, is overwhelmingly told he has a hero complex.hey man, they apparently lock it in order to preserve a semblance of order. People generally go there to get other peoples off the cuff responses - and not generally to engage in longwinded debate. That's not as dumb as it might sound at first - it cultivates an atmosphere where the valued members of the community are those who are good at expressing their immediate reactions, not the ones who are good at arguing. That's actually very useful; it gives you a great idea of what sort of reaction yo… | /r/MensRights | 21/09/15 01:42 PM |

I don't know that this is really a mens rights issue, but I obviously appreciate any input I can get, pretty mutch no matter the source. That said, this really comes down to emotions more so than arguments, as the sticking point is this idea of fairness. | /r/MensRights | 18/09/15 10:24 AM |
