1	Anti-MRA image circulating my Facebook friends. "...our society at large f*****g hates women." Anybody know where can I find the reblogs? The original seems to be deleted.	/r/MensRights	16/10/14 04:42 PM
-9	Feminists demand removal of LIFE’s iconic ‘The Kiss’ statue saying it was sexual assault Is a crime still a crime if the victim does not consider it to be? That's the crux of the matter. The world didn't think so for Armin Meiwes.	/r/MensRights	12/10/14 03:29 PM
2	That one time feminists decided that language was oppressive to women and tried to create a new language better suited to expressing women's views. While that quality is subjective, I studied it for a while and I agree with you. The word for (accusative case) "surroundings" is ĉirkaŭaĵojn (literally "around-concrete manifestation"), roughly pronounced "cheer-cow-a-zhoin".	/r/MensRights	05/10/14 09:03 PM
0	That one time feminists decided that language was oppressive to women and tried to create a new language better suited to expressing women's views. Hey, don't you bash Esperanto. It missed becoming an official language of the United Nations by one vote.	/r/MensRights	05/10/14 05:56 PM
1	I hit my boyfriend this morning and it has changed my view on the men's rights movement. The censorship of the gender issues is not the point. Comment OP lied to and manipulated /r/offmychest for his personal amusement.	/r/MensRights	02/10/14 07:21 PM
1	I hit my boyfriend this morning and it has changed my view on the men's rights movement. OffMyChest will now ban posters with a history in /r/MensRights who post in that thread. That was a bad idea, man. They're not your personal playground.	/r/MensRights	02/10/14 04:51 PM
0	So much for that UN "Men only" conference. Feminists complained, now women will be part of it. Can't have men thinking for themselves after all. You can ban men-only spaces, or you can have women-only spaces, and I'm okay with either, but you can't do both.	/r/MensRights	02/10/14 04:44 PM
3	The danger of becoming embittered and losing trust in women "Not all women" and "not all men" are equivalent and equally valid arguments. You cannot allow the behaviour of a few define your attitude towards 3.5 billion. That's the trouble with both feminism and men's rights. When you're fighting for one gender, it's easy to see the other as oppressors.	/r/MensRights	24/09/14 03:25 PM
1	If feminism was about equality, it wouldn't be called feminism. It would be called EGALITARIANISM. Bear in mind that there are many feminists who believe men's issues do not exist, and therefore the advancement of women's rights will bring equality by bringing women's status closer to men.	/r/MensRights	22/09/14 03:00 PM
4	Jessica Valenti thinks no one will use Vasalgel, because various anti-male reasons. Both you and the parent commenter are right in your own ways. Of course male sexuality is inescapable in our daily lives. Women are commonly used as eye candy and sexual service to men in advertisement. (And pornography, of course, I have to take a moment to mention that I oppose it for this very reason among others.) But the moment a man actually dares to express his sexuality positively, by making an advance (even a polite one) or even having his private sexual habits exposed, he is labelled a…	/r/MensRights	18/09/14 02:04 AM
0	Why Sexual Objectification Doesn’t Matter in Video Games ["Under the definition of objectification, all main characters are objectified as being acted upon by the player with a controller."] This paper disagrees, and points out that it's harmful.	/r/MensRights	16/09/14 05:38 PM
1	Parody cartoon of MRAs our friends in againstmensrights are discussing I actually agree with this comic. There's a view that the wrongs (particularly sexual wrongs) committed by men are unstoppable, and therefore men are not responsible for their actions.	/r/MensRights	10/09/14 04:15 PM
-11	Jennifer Lawrence scandal: why don't naked pictures of men get leaked? It might be true to say there's a lot less male material to hack and steal in the first place. It would appear to be the case tha Because it's not socially acceptable for women to show their sexuality, while it is for men. So the majority of pornography in the mainstream is for men.	/r/MensRights	02/09/14 02:55 PM
2	Feminist blogger says it's okay and even a good idea to assume men are evil. I browse that site regularly for the SRS appeal of it. They have, and they approve of it, since it doesn't happen to real people.	/r/MensRights	29/08/14 03:30 AM
-3	Dr Helen Smith Explains Why Men Need To Boycott Marriage Until Laws Change "Until violence against women is gone forever, women take a risk every time they go out in public. Because there are men out there who will beat you and rape you." It seems a reasonable guess that the rate of people being beaten and raped is significantly greater than the rate of men forced into pregnancy, so why should we worry? Most women are decent people who will not thrust a pregnancy upon a man, just as most men are decent people who will not hurt others.	/r/MensRights	28/08/14 05:17 PM
1	I'd love to not have to wear a seatbelt while driving either. Is this fake? A reverse image search doesn't yield any other uses of the image. Anyway, most men do not want to rape, and will be offended if they are assumed rapists by being taught not to rape. Men who do want to rape are not going to be stopped just because someone tells them it's not okay. That being said, it's important to make people realize what rape is. And it's been shown that this is actually effective at preventing rape.	/r/MensRights	28/08/14 03:47 PM
-1	Dr Helen Smith Explains Why Men Need To Boycott Marriage Until Laws Change If we advocate celibacy, we're no better than feminists who say it's okay to assume all men are violent pigs until otherwise determined.	/r/MensRights	28/08/14 03:41 PM
-5	To show that we aren't extremists, can we publicly denounce /r/theredpill and other associated websites? Why do people hate the MRM? Because we are usually antifeminist, which makes people think we are misogynistic. Why do people hate the Red Pill? Because they really are misogynistic, and try to provide justifications for it, thinking that justifying misogyny means that it's not misogyny. Subscribe and contribute to /r/TheBluePill (even though they're anti-MRM once in a while). That's how we disavow the Terpers.	/r/MensRights	27/08/14 01:18 AM
9	An Illustration Involving Children — this really nails it; it's not sexism, it's gender roles I think the author is imagining a future wave of feminism that will actually treat people equally.	/r/MensRights	27/08/14 01:11 AM
6	Feminist Clementine Ford doubles down on male tears The spurious logic of MRAs extends even to blaming women for issues quite demonstrably connected to patriarchal expectations of men Somebody show me a time when we blamed women for men's issues.	/r/MensRights	26/08/14 05:02 AM
1	How can you involve yourself with women in today's climate? I never claimed that I wanted to force anyone into romance. The questioner asked why I would involve myself with women in today's climate, and I answered for myself.	/r/MensRights	21/08/14 03:10 AM
7	How can you involve yourself with women in today's climate? Because romance is awesome and I don't believe that stuff will happen to me. Seriously, people. If we start advocating celibacy, we're no better than feminists who say it's okay to avoid all men because some are violent.	/r/MensRights	20/08/14 03:42 PM
1	Woman gets judge arrested and convicted for Domestic Abuse, he shows videos of her setting him up, he gets cleared, saves his career, she has no consequences. As important as it is to raise awareness of stuff like this, we really need to disavow the red pill. I think it would have been better to link directly to the video.	/r/MensRights	17/08/14 04:17 PM
2	Man reported as suspicious for following kids. Turns out to be the kids' father. We have no way of inferring the caller's sex; doing so is slightly sexist. Men can be just as suspicious of other men's pedophilia as women. I think it's obvious that the caller did not gather from the conversation that the man was the girls' father. With that in mind, it's definitely suspicious for him to keep following them after the conversation had ended.	/r/MensRights	16/08/14 10:39 PM
1	Man reported as suspicious for following kids. Turns out to be the kids' father. How do we know he wasn't close enough?	/r/MensRights	16/08/14 08:14 PM
2	Man reported as suspicious for following kids. Turns out to be the kids' father. What kind of father asks his own children for directions?	/r/MensRights	16/08/14 08:03 PM
2	I was turned down for a job at a tech startup because I’m male There was that video saying the company endorses equal hiring.	/r/MensRights	13/08/14 04:04 PM
1	Meet the women of the men’s rights movement: Why they see feminism as a “personality disorder” - the usual desperate distortions and confusion from a true believer feminist Every man who visits a men’s rights site concerned about male victims of rape is a man who’ll be told that women are the problem Would you do this?	/r/MensRights	12/08/14 11:21 PM
1	Is male sexuality oppressed? I don't think so. I conceded this in my first comment. Sorry, didn't notice. Porn isn't dangerous. Prostitution often is Agree to disagree, and we're not talking about that. Male sexuality isn't built upon any of these, though. Ah, I get it now. Point conceded.	/r/MensRights	10/08/14 09:14 PM
0	Is male sexuality oppressed? I don't think so. The arguments I usually see Because johns want sex I'm choosing not to respond to these, and should not have responded to them in my first comment. This is not a discussion about prostitution, but the oppression of male sexuality. There is no such statistic on page 6. My mistake; I meant page 4. "You can do whatever you want, so long as it's alone and in private, and if we find out we'll shame you for it." This is part of society's stigma towards sexuality in general. It's usually either about c…	/r/MensRights	10/08/14 08:52 PM
0	Is male sexuality oppressed? I don't think so. It's not against the law to be rude If you seriously think it's okay to be rude, I hope I never encounter you in real life. What are you talking about? Prostitution. So I'm assuming you think porn for women is fine then? No. And that the women who are willing participants in sex trade should not be punished? Yes, they should not be punished. Well since you consider almost every part of it a "lecherous expression of that desire" I have spoken out against catcalling, prostitution, and pornography.…	/r/MensRights	10/08/14 08:28 PM
0	Is male sexuality oppressed? I don't think so. Laws against rape exist because men don't have the right to a woman's body whenever they choose; porn is not the same thing. I was talking about prostitution and pornography with that sentence. Your point? My point in your previous two quotes of me is the freedom given to male sexuality. we're not the people to blame. And I never blamed you. My point here is that men are not shamed for promiscuity; indeed, the idea of a man being promiscuous is foreign. By subjective feels of discomfort? This is…	/r/MensRights	10/08/14 08:25 PM
0	Is male sexuality oppressed? I don't think so. No, no one does that. The moment someone proposes outlawing the sex trade for all the valid reasons there are to do so, people jump head over heels to portray it as an industry of free choice when this is hardly the case. By someone else? No, that's not a common sentiment. Why is the sex trade popular, then? You're an idiot. Ad hominem. Just like almost everyone else. You are semi-right about this (see page 6). Still, a 60% majority is not "almost everyone". Well, most of them. And also most of …	/r/MensRights	10/08/14 08:02 PM
