| 8 | White Cis-Males Are Ruining Science Fiction (Wired.com)This was odd to me, as well. A gender-free society wouldn't have gendered pronouns, so using a gendered pronoun to make that point is nonsensical. It's like making all your characters black in an effort to show a race-less society. The contrivance says more about your agenda and lack of skill as a writer than it does about the fictional society you're attempting to portray. | /r/MensRights | 24/08/15 06:21 PM |

No evidence to back their accusations up of course.You understand nobody is saying don't minimise risk and men are far more likely to fail to minimize risk , OD , die of alcohol related accidents, get assaulted etc. Yep, and the same messages should be directed at men as a result, but there's not multiple national level and state organizations working round the clock to make sure that ordinary assault is a major focus of our funding and legislation, is there, like there is for sexual assault?

| 6 | White Cis-Males Are Ruining Science Fiction (Wired.com)Mentioning Mad Max as an example of how the shitlords are tearing down quality products isn't all that great of an idea. To many, it's absolutely emblematic of the trend. I mean, it's a story with almost no plot, where everyone is named literally after the personality trait we're supposed to focus on as audience members. Furiosa is furious.

No evidence to back their accusations up of course.None of that has anything to do with their efforts to get people to stop jumping to "well she was drinking" and women just need to minimize their risk". When the overwhelming majority of rape incidents involve someone a person knows, drugs and alcohol or both, involve a systemic attempt to isolate the victim, and uses social connections and pressure to intimidate people into silence, etc. you can't avoid the fact that being more careful who you get drunk or stoned around, how you get to and from… | /r/MensRights | 24/08/15 05:02 PM |

No evidence to back their accusations up of course.We find out what they are doing and why they are doing it. No way. The LAST thing is the current crop of programs want to do is actually delve into motivations, because when that happens (and we do actually go out to prisons and interview people), they find lots of really uncomfortable scenarios that throw this "educate men" thing on its ear. Up here in Canada, over 70% of the men in jail for sexual assault were themselves assaulted as children or teens, overwhelmingly by women. Up to 40% of our… | /r/MensRights | 24/08/15 04:25 PM |

No evidence to back their accusations up of course.With driving safety, people are taught not to be criminal drivers . So you buy insurance, wear your seat belt, buckle your kid into a car seat, and take defensive driving courses to stop yourself from being a criminal? This is precisely what I mean about you having a very mixed message going on. Everything around cars is preventative, and there's no such thing as preventative measures that don't include you working to avoid the issues presented by OTHER drivers.

| 1 | Sweden opens it's first emergency rape center for menmost men's right issues have actually been addressed by feminists I'll believe it when I see it.

Wasn't your point that it's ALL centered around teaching criminals not to be criminals? Now you're arguing that the tips are distributed between the two, so you're seemingly undermining your own argument.

What mythical "right" are you defending that says it's acceptable for people to just grab the crotches of the people they find attractive? You're free to decide for yourself whether you want to make a big deal out of someone grabbing your crotch, but that's your choice to make around your own body. There's no "right" that makes all crotches fair game, just because you're free and easy with yours. | /r/MensRights | 23/08/15 11:08 AM |
| 8 | "...she obtained a Family Court order that prevented John from having any contact with his son, although there was no suggestion of any abuse." Don't have kids, ever!Yes, sanity. Sure, she went overboard getting a court order, but he had no legal rights to that child at all. It would have been a travesty if she'd gone after child support, mind you, and we've seen many examples where unrelated men get stabbed in the back for financial support without having the visitation that should always go with that payment. | /r/MensRights | 23/08/15 11:00 AM |

Violent crime is so rare in the population that it makes ZERO sense to generalize from the tiny population that engages in it to the larger population as a whole. You don't learn anything about "men" by generalizing from "criminals", if 99% of men aren't criminals. | /r/MensRights | 22/08/15 08:36 PM |

In the Justification to English dictionary, this is translates to: "despite the fact costs just skyrocketed because of the split of the houses, we're going to hold Dad to maintaining a lifestyle level, anyway." The base assumption that wealthy people pass off that wealth to their kids in a nice linear curve as they climb the wealth ladder has never been supported.

Which was only that admitting to have been drinking that night is not proof of substance abuse. The term "substance abuse" doesn't refer to addiction. It's simply overindulgence. It can happen in even single episodes. The reality here is that we're talking a 3 month old baby. At that age, we're talking at least 1 overnight feeding, and possibly two, and that means a baby monitor so you can get up for feedings.

You tell yourself what you need to tell yourself to justify it, man, but she lied to the cops about where her daughter had been sleeping, she didn't put the kid into any kind of bedclothes or jumpers for bed, she was on a completely different floor, with no baby monitor, getting drunk and having sex, and left her daughter by herself for 9 hours.

I don't need to assume. They clearly admit to drinking.

| 7 | A mother who left her sick, three-month-old baby alone to die while she had a whiskey fuelled sex marathon with a man she met at a bus stop has avoided jail.The fact she didn't leave the house is only partially mitigating. If you're the sole caregiver for that child, and you consciously engage in substance abuse that makes you less able to properly assess, care for, or pay attention to that child, it's still criminal neglect. Replace alcohol with some other drug. Would a judge tolerate someone saying they fired up a crack rock, got high, fell asleep and when they woke up their kid was dead? | /r/MensRights | 14/08/15 05:28 PM |

Is it really such a grey area case that there's going to be some people out there that envision a father meeting someone at a bus stop, heading off to have a booze and sex fest, and coming home to find his child dead, evading jail? I could throw that down to 1000 people in a mall and virtually all of them would think that the dude is headed for the clink for willful neglect. | /r/MensRights | 14/08/15 03:15 PM |

Why?? ;(It's similar in Canada. 0-40% visitation ... you pay her child support 41-59% visitation ... no child support 60-100% visitation ... she pays you child support. And the result of those barriers is that women's lawyers fight to keep your visitation below that 41%, and that means we see defaults like one day a week plus every second weekend (29%) or two days a week plus every second weekend (40%).

She was getting 48K a year in the mid 1980s, when the average wage was 16K. She was making more than enough money to save up 1K a month towards a retainer. Six months of living on 3K a month, still well above that average wage, and she'd have that retainer and be off to the races. Edit: Of course, that's if she illogically decided to live solely off that child support and not actually have a job of her own. If that doesn't fly, then when he buy… | /r/MensRights | 06/08/15 06:37 PM |
| 7 | So many woman always saying men are dogs ...My Facebook stream is a constant deluge of memes essentially telling me what "real men" do and don't do, over and over and over. The general theme, of course, is that real men step up to the plate, real men can be relied on, real men make you feel special and wanted, real men don't beat people up, real men are attentive and listen, non-real men should get out of the way and let a real man stand up, etc. The number of women in my friendship group that seem obsessed with screaming to the world abo… | /r/MensRights | 06/08/15 04:15 PM |
| 2 | Men's discussion group benefitsOne of the hardest things I've ever had to talk about is my revenge ideation around my divorce. Even in therapy, my therapist would act as if I was about to actually snap and murder someone, despite the fact my ideation was around logically impossible concepts like time travel, teleportation, or simply obscene amounts of money. At one point in time, I had to sit my therapist down and remind him that I'd successfully made it to middle age without even bumping up against the law, let alone seeing … | /r/MensRights | 05/08/15 04:45 PM |
| 3 | Opponent of new campus due process bill doesn't hide her contempt for basic rightsIn the end, her case (and the case for all this ridiculous campus legislation) is based on a logically unsupportable conclusion - that every time someone claims they've been sexually assaulted, they actually have been. We've known for years that even eye witness testimony is unreliable, that people get really "creative" when trying to avoid negative stigma or leverage positive attention, and that perception and framing can drive interpretation, heavily. | /r/MensRights | 05/08/15 04:32 PM |
| 5 | Imagine if a man took a picture of a woman's partially exposed butt and shared it with co-workers...Just playing around with equivalencies ... A male supervisor takes a snappy of an overweight, middle aged woman's ass crack while she's busy dealing with some issue that needs her to get down and dirty. He then plays the picture back for the rest of the office. He'd already be fired, and the suit would already be settled. | /r/MensRights | 05/08/15 04:24 PM |
| 5 | WATCH: This 'Sexist Air Conditioning' Interview Has Killed Feminism ForeverEveryone with this latest row keeps claiming men wear suits. I wonder what percentage of men that actually is? Well, considering we're talking about temperature in an office, we're intentionally confining the conversation to men that actually work in an office, so plumbers, welders, garbage men and power line workers aren't really the pool in question. Neither are engineers, really, when many of them spend at least part of the time on site and tend to dress so they can accommodate both the offic… | /r/MensRights | 05/08/15 04:14 PM |

| 4 | Prosecutor snatches defeat out of the jaws of victory. Agrees to give woman probation instead of convicting her of murder.Thanks for the additional context, but the reality is that in 25 years of marriage in a nation with ample resources for women in abusive relationships, she had many angles to exploit other than murdering him. | /r/MensRights | 05/08/15 03:29 PM |
