Hyperagency. The assumption that men have absolute capacity to act, which means if a guy is depressed he can just make the choice to stop.

At the end you need to stop getting validation from others. The only person who can truly make you feel validated is yourself. It's difficult. I have been without a partner for ten years and it's painful to see people in relationships and wondering what am I doing wrong and why I can't get someone to look at me like that. I know exactly how you feel. But the thing is... making your own self-worth depend on the desire of others is making it depend on something you have no control over, and that's…

Not the person you asked, but I also got circumcised by choice as an adult. In my case, it was a combination of circumstances, including phimosis that was not responding well to stretching, scar tissue in my foreskin, and as an extra, hypersensitivity that wouldn't let me have sex without discomfort. In my case, the desensitization coming from circumcision was a benefit. But again, that was a personal choice depending on my specific personal circumstances that can't be generalized to anyone else…

I have taken part in it a few times in the past. I think I find it rather disappointing. There are so many issues that truly affect men, but they seem to lose perspective and are more focused on finding blame than on finding solutions, and assume men's issues can be fixed without changing men's attitudes. Edit: Just like some parts of feminism, one of their biggest mistakes is forgetting that fixing gender issues need and imply changes for both genders. If we're gonna change the way woman relate…

Okay, I read the translation and checked it in spanish (my native language) and even tried to piece the original sentences in Swedish to understand what is going on here. Please note: these are only my thoughts, I may be entirely wrong about this. The article puts "men's violence against women" in quotes, which makes me think that it's kind of a standard concept, something they have in their handbooks and procedures and can use, and what she is saying is kind of that that the concept is not broa…

I have to say this argument is a bit disingenuous. "Lib" in that case is a broader term and is more focused on gender roles. If I came to this sub to put an "All men are rapists by default" post I would probably get banned, despite free speech being a right and this sub being called "MensRIGHTS".

You know, I have participated in both this sub and there for years. I would say it's simply a matter of different approach, and I visit both to get in each perspectives I can't get on the other. I agree that the discussion is usually very limited there because it's part of what they have to do to keep their focus, and it can be frustrating at times, but so can this sub.

As someone who got circumcised as an adult, I can say it was not traumatic. It has mostly been frustrating to be out of physical activity for several weeks, having some extra logistics to pee (remove gauze or pull it up, pee, then put it back in place) and not being able to play with it. But pain itself lasted mostly the first week and it has been at most uncomfortable afterwards. Babies don't get painkillers. Babies get an open wound in the same diaper they poop in. Babies are unable to consent…

if you want to place bodily autonomy on a pedestal then we should have a look at male bodily autonomy too. Yes. We should.

To be completely honest, I think a pregnancy in which one of the parents wants the child and the other one doesn't is a lose-lose situation. No matter what you do, someone will get fucked over there and there is no solution that will be good for everyone, and in that case bodily autonomy is a very powerful argument to place the final decision on the woman. For good or bad, those are the rules of the game. Once the pregnancy happens the decision is out of the men's hands. I think the solution nee…

ARe you sure there are more? Or simply more visible? FtM trans people barely get talked about or discussed, so it may be simply that you believe there's less of them because they don't get any mental space in society.

I'm probably going against what the sub will think about this, but I'd say dismissing the case was a mistake if we take things at a face value. IF we assume that the safety order is there for valid reasons (we can argue about that, but that's an entirely different conversation), then I think any breach of it should be treated as a serious matter. Not because sending the birthday card in itself is bad, but because it establishes the precedent that a safety order can be acceptably violated. IF tha…

I'm gonna be honest, I visit both subs and I think each has its own biases, its own shortcomings, and its own advantages. If I had to summarize it, the problem with MensLib is that it's too reluctant to assume that feminism may get some things wrong, and the problem with this sub is that it's too reluctant to assume that feminism may get some things right.

/r/MensRights05/03/21 05:17 AM

Exactly. Do you have any source where someone else comments or reports that she said it? That's what counts as "secondary sources", which are the most preferred by Wikipedia. That's got to be your starting point. The question of that policy is to establish both verifiability and relevance. In a way, it answers the question "Why should we include this information in this article?" and the answer is: "Other people thought it was important enough to comment on that and this is what they said."
/r/MensRights23/02/21 11:35 PM

By the way, I'd suggest paying attention to what they say there: they literally told you what the problem was, and more than the placement of it in the text (although that also affected) is the lack of proper sources. Which means, preferably, reliable sources (either news sites or other scholars) commenting on her views on male victims of rape. This requirement gets a particularly strict enforcement when dealing with living people and information that could be libelous. If you want this to work …

There is a sitewide policy about it. It's not universal, for certain things the author's own satements may be allowed, but it is in general prefered. This is related to a general policy of Wikipedia of only report what other people have reported. Check the whole text of that policy.

The supply of labour of women is more responsive to their after-tax wage, so a reduction in taxes increases the labour participation of women substantially. Men’s labour supply is more rigid, so an increase in taxes does not reduce their labour supply by much, if at all. This is a pretty interesting take. Kinda makes it seem that women's participation in the work market is voluntary, while men's isn't. Which I'm not sure is what they wanted to say...

Sorry, but... what is the purpose of tagging the OP here? I seriously don't think she'll reply here, there will be no constructive debate (or any debate at all) and I don't think it will realy achieve anything... Now, about this: Men have no loyalty or affinity for Men other than the ones related by blood, this is why Men have no equivalent to Feminism. Men are Individuals to a fault. Maybe we should start doing it. That's what's missing here.

I'm personally very frustrated at how this sub sometimes identifies with the political right (Just look "leftist" in the sidebar) when the political right is in general quite hostile to gay rights.

As a gay dude I love it. Now, probably because I follow a lot of influencers whose only claim to popularity is looking good shirtless, I don't really judge having an onlyfans because I see it as simply an extension of that. Add a global pandemic and economic crisis in which the question always is "what am I good at and how can I make it give me money?" and if someone is good at getting naked in front of a camera, good for them.

Maybe more openness to discuss it and a wider language to talk about it?

Men are much stronger than women, so you wouldn't expect women to be able to use violence to force sex against men at a similar rate. I don't think we will be able to convince each other. For me, this would fall under the definition of "a killing in which the deciding factor is that the victim is a woman". If for you it wouldn't it's okay. Now, I'd like to point that I think that most of the outrage here seems to be focused at the fact that women are getting attention, not that men aren't. I don…

I knew I would probably get some flak for this comment. "Killing a woman for being a woman" is a shorthand for a lot of situations that are usually more complex and a lot of that gets lost in the economy of language. I don't think there are guys out there that think that being a woman is an unforgivable crime and deserves capital punishment and so they just go out and kill women, which is what the literal meaning of the sentence is.

Okay, I am kinda discussing the definition of "women being killed for being women" in another thread in this sub, so I'd like to interject here a bit. Just as there is a certain perception of sexual availability and subordination about women which is what leads to these deaths of women, which usually gets written up as "being killed for being women", I would say there is definitely a perception of disposability and utilitarianism about men that leads to the deaths of men that can just as well ge…

Mexican here. There is a very specific definition of femicide, and it's when the actions leading to the homicide have as their only original factor the fact that the victim is a woman. There are a substantial amount cases of women killed because they resisted rape, because they wouldn't have sex with their boyfriends, or because they were breaking up a relationship. And sometimes you don't need to know who he murderer is. If you find a woman's body with signs of sexual violence that was inflicte…

Okay, I'll bite. The thing with the abortion debate is that the two sides aren't even talking about the same thing. The pro-life side thinks that the fetus is an independent human being from the moment of conception and has rights that can even trample the bodily autonomy of the mother. The pro-choice side thinks that the fetus cannot be considered a human being on the early stages of conception (in which most of the voluntary abortions take place anyway).

There are health-related reasons to circumcise newborn males. Most of them aren’t factors until young adulthood, however. Circumcision is a decision best left to parents or to the child himself when he is older. There, that's much better.

However, this drop was mostly due to fewer arrests of men: the number of men arrested declined by 30.4 percent in that time, while the number of women arrested declined only 6.4 percent. So... both genders have been arrested less, but they have a problem with the rate of arrests in men dropping faster than the rate of arrests in women?

If you want that changed - you'll need to campaign politically, not legally. The thing is... they're right about this.

Just a thought: Just because a person is a criminal doesn't mean they stop being a person and having rights. The penalty imposed should be enough as a punishment and to protect society, but adding a risk of death there seems wrong to me, even for a criminal.

I think we need to stop looking at privilege as a black or white situation. In more cases, it's not like men are 100% privileged or women are 100% privileged, there are situations in which one gender plays an advantage and others in which it plays a disadvantage, and I'd say whoever is only willing to have half of the conversation is missing a lot.

"Men internalize negative messages about expressing traditionally feminine feelings, yet they are criticized for not being more sensitive." "Men are criticized for being too controlling, yet they ma be made to feel inadequate if they do not take control". "Men have higher rates of substance abuse".

In a post about male circumcision it's banned to talk about female circumcision, guys who "got circumcised as babies but are fine with it", or sexual preferences regarding circumcised vs. uncircumcised penises, and to prevent discussion from heating up, any kind of body shaming, including referring to circumcision as mutilation. For what I have seen, it works rather well. While sometimes I feel the rules of discussion in Menslib li…

I'd like not to talk about this right now, sorry. I already went through this discussion with the doctor, with myself, again with him, and I'm still having it with myself. Right now I'd rather not having to handle it even again with someone else.

I love in a country with a very low circumcision rate. I went through the options with the third doctor, which to be honest seemed rather trustworthy. I tried stretching on my own and saw no change, and to be honest for some other personal reasons I want a quick solution. Right now the one thing I want it's to remove sources of doubt and get it over.

The plan would involve a 9-day recovery before I have to go back to work. But yes, I know it will be a mess. It's actually one of those things that I don't really want to do, but after checking the evidence at hand I know I'll probably have to. Just the waiting period and the uncertainty of WHEN it will be is messing with me big time.

If phimosis occurs because of scar tissue following injury, then that might become problematic. That's my case. Three doctors examined me and independently recommended circumcision, and the last one explained to me that skin stretching and steroids most likely won't work on me because of scar tissue.

I am planning to, for the same reasons you mention. I got three independent opinions recommending it, but even so, the perspective is not pleasant at all. And even if I go through with it, I wouldn't recommend doing it to a child. Just because lasik surgery corrects bad eyesight it doesn't mean should be done to newborn kids with nothing wrong in their eyes.

I think almost no candidate focuses on men's rights as a whole, but Bernie Sanders seems to be more focused on the rights of the working class, which comprises most of the men that face disadvantages.

And I mean, during hunter-gatherer societies where the long-term survival of a group depended on its ability to create offspring, it was explainable.

Lack of proof literally means the accused didn't do it. I'm sorry, but I think you're wrong here. Lack of proof means that if the accused did it there is no way to prove it, and under the assumption of innocence ought to be assumed not to have done it, from a legal point of view. From a factual point of view he might have done it or not, and since there is a possibility that he didn't do it he cannot be convicted. That's it. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Yeah. There is a difference between "Not proven to be true" and "proven to be false" from a legal point of way. A rape accusation that is not proven to be true is not necessarily false, just unproven. But in this case, it is clearly false.

You know, as a segue to this conversation, I find it funny how when I debate with feminists (or in MensLib) I end up defending the need of the MRM, and when I debate with MRAs I end up defending the need of feminism.

(When, for example, I'm actually banned from /r/Feminism and the only sub where I have total negative karma is /r/MGTOW) And how much both types of conversations resemble each other.

You didn't reply to it, but that's the comment you're talking about.

Sorry, I got caught up in other things and missed replying to this.

Basically, if you replace "Feminism" by "a movement for women's rights", I would mostly agree with your post, with a few caveats. We can choose the terminology we want for this. I personally don't find anything intrinsically wrong with the term "feminist", but if you prefer to call it WRA I have no problem with that either.

Honnest question, as I never get an answer to it when I try to ask, but, what are those? In Western countries it's mostly about social issues, not legal rights. There are still sectors of society where women are seen as less capable or as having less agency. (Not all of them, yes. In other sectors the opposite is true).

In Mexico adoption laws vary by state. Once I had to check how it was (it may have changed in the five years since). Around one third of our states only allowed adoption to married couples. Around one third allowed adoption to married couples and single people of either gender. And around one third allowed adoption to married couples and single women, but not single men.

I'm ambivalent towards MensLib. In one hand it attempts to be a positive space and is good at keeping hate at bay, but on the other hand it has a built-in refusal to acknowledge that sometimes men get the short end of the stick without fault of their own. It parts from the assumption that all the problems of men stem from toxic masculinity and can be defeated through individual action.

In 2018, Arizona passed a law allowing women to use embryos without the father’s consent, but it was not retroactive.

You know, I might have to get a circumcision for medical reasons (Phimosis, was misdiagnosed as being fine by a couple doctors, now apparently my foreskin has enough damage than a less invasive treatment might not be an option), why would people want to do that without reason? Sounds bad in nearly all fronts. If I have it, it would be a) by choice, b) out of necessity. That, or at the very least the first part, should be a requirement for every man getting a circumcision.

I'm not entirely sure about this. I get some feminism echoes here: "The way to fix the problems of men is to end the patriarchy. If we fix women's problems, men's problems will disappear as a side result." This sounds kind of like the same. I think the way genders relate to each other makes it impossible to fix the issues of a gender focusing solely on the issues of the other, because focusing solely on the issues of a gender can't fix them. Social change has to come on all fronts, gradually but…

The boy also didn't lose the glans/head during the act of circumcision, but as a result of necrotic gangrene, following a surgical site infection 2 days prior. Which wouldn't have been caused at all if he hadn't been circumcised, so it was a direct consequence of the circumcision.

Girls younger than that already do serious training in things like gymnastics or ballet, and kids half that age take music lessons and enjoy it. I think her seeing the choir on TV or live and deciding she wants to go there because she likes the way they sing is not so implausible. I'm not guaranteeing that happened, but I think it's perfectly possible that it did.

Why should opposition to feminism only be valid if it has to do with men? I would say that it would actually be less legitimate than any honest criticism of feminism that tries to find and correct intrinsecal problems within it.

was gay with zero backing To be honest I find this one not as blatant as the others. While the books never say directly "Dumbledore was in love with Grindelwald", the conversation of his ghost with Harry can perfectly be interpreted as that. I think that's at worst a case of unintentionally writing an ambiguous character and then jumping on the ambiguity for her own advantage, and at best a case of intentionally writing an ambiguous character when she maybe couldn't write a more clear cut one.

Kind of, yes, although I'd go further than that. There were a lot of prescriptive perceptions about what it meant to be a woman. A woman who had any interest in science, in writing, a woman who was on leadership roles, that did any kind of manual labor, a woman that didn't want to get married and have children, etc, was not considered a proper woman. And yes, this was as limiting as the conceptions of masculinity. There was in the past a stricter division in "masculine sphere" and "feminine sphe…

I think there are two interpretations, one of them a certain amount of merit and another one not so much. The first one is when some guys assume that just because you do things not traditionally perceived as masculine (like watching My Little Pony, taking care of children, doing housework, singing along to Barbie Girl or taking a rod up your ass) you cannot be considered a man. This one can become incredibly prescriptive. I don't know if you've visited /r/gatekeeping, but according to some of th…

MensRights doesn't seem to advocate for men, only to bash women and feminism. Still, I like that along with things like /r/OneY or /r/AskMen are a few spaces where one can discuss the problems of feminism, although I don't like the way they usually do it. Same with MGTOW. For a group that claims not to need women, it seems to focused on how much they don't need women. I don't touch the pill subs, sorry. MensLib... I have mixed feelings about it.

Better, but I'd prefer a different code-name I imagine that will be part of the drama. Bond facing his sucessor, and probably eventually concluding that she's great as 007 and giving her his blessing. Then we probably will have some movies with her as 007, although not James Bond, but at least they took care of the transition. I don't think it'll work as well, though. Crais seems rather eager to shake things up. I recall reading (although I have no way to verify it) that he once floated the idea…

Mexican here. This is interesting, I thought our law had that included in its definition of rape (Or more precisely, that it was covered under a definition akin to "rape is the act of forcing someone to perform sexual intercourse against their will or without their knowledge through coercion, deception, drugs or force") but when I went to check it includes a provision that only defines it as being penetrated.

For what I understand, Daniel Craig will still play a retired James Bond, while that actress will play his replacement as Agent 007. Another character with the same code name. Am I wrong in not seeing the problem with that? They're not retconning the character but putting an interesting plot twist on it. I'm not a devout follower of the Bond franchise but I've watched three of the four Craig films and this actually sounds like an exciting and interesting plot. And for what I recall, there was ev…

If there wern't posts pointing at the dick it wouldn't even have crossed my mind because I'd be too busy looking at the rest of him. Also, as someone who has actually had sex with men (unlike those commenters), the dick size is a lot less important than the skill of the man using the dick.

Sorry, I'm back. I agree that the idea of making work safe for everybody and the idea of reducing work slavery for everybody are the right goals.

That's when you have to do focus on separate groups, evaluate their needs, and create specific policies that address those needs. And yes, sometimes you need to put more effort int…

If I had to take a guess, probably because I wasn't hostile. I was disagreeing, but kept it civil and presented arguments instead of attacks.

Do you think a policy to prevent workplace deaths that has men as their primary target would be sexist? I personally don't think so. If men are the majority of workplace deaths, getting them down for men is the best way to get all of them down. Now, this doesn't mean you should ignore workplace deaths of women and they probably need individualized policies because their problems are probably different of men,but a majority off the effort should focus on men because they suffer the majority of th…

anyway, I don't think comparing things that have nothing to do with each other gets us anywhere. I wasn't comparing it, just giving examples of things that are heavily skewed against one gender. To add to that: We can't change that evil exists and always will exist and we can't therefore continue to put one side down by saying: "Look, in this area you have it better, so I deserve an advantage over you". Exactly this, for both sides.

Modern feminism is not focused on legal rights (which may be achieved in western countries, but are still a pending issue in almost everywhere else). It's focused in social structures and expectations. And, just as there are social structures that work on women's advantage, there are too social structures that work on women's disadvantage. For example, men are assumed to be the provider by default and their value is tied to their productive capacity, and women are assumed to be the caretaker by …

That depends on who you ask. In feminist subs I can pass for a mysogynist MRA, and in MRA subs I can pass for a feminist cuck. Overall, I think both feminism and MRA have valid goals, both have flawed methods, both have huge blind spots regarding both themselves and each other, and both are ultimately needed if we want to have gender relationships and dynamics that are healthy for everyone. I don't know what that makes me, besides human.

It's supposed to make women travel safer, although several female acquaintances including at least one family member have told m…
