1	What do you guys think of Richard Cooper? Was there any point in time where you agreed with him on many topics? What was the comment about? Could you give us some context?	/r/ExRedPill	30/01/23 05:26 PM
1	Samaritan Research on Male suicide in the UK I read what you posted, but don't have the time to check the links right now, exams coming up so stuck into revision. And yes, more help should be directed towards men, so for example psychology is heavily dominated by females, it would be good to get more males into psychology but everyone has access to the same tuition funding and education choices (in the UK anyway) so it would be a matter of influencing peoples' choice at an early stage in education. What do you consider anti male bullshit t…	/r/MensRights	06/06/17 03:32 PM
1	Samaritan Research on Male suicide in the UK I said I agreed with what you said? You asked me what I thought and I told you. This doesn't mean I think you're wrong. And what has mansplaining got to do with anything we're discussing?	/r/MensRights	06/06/17 02:35 PM
1	Samaritan Research on Male suicide in the UK I agree with you, I'm not sure how it can be done but we need some way of breaking down stereotypes about traditional male/female jobs to increase participation from those who are underrepresented.	/r/MensRights	06/06/17 09:06 AM
1	Samaritan Research on Male suicide in the UK What do you think should be done to address these things?	/r/MensRights	06/06/17 08:06 AM
1	Samaritan Research on Male suicide in the UK Thanks for the source, I'm just a little confused as to why you support this source and not the Samaritan's one? There is quite a lot of overlap around the topic of 'toxic masculinity'. These are a few quotes from the paper, what do you think of these points? "Chan & Hayashi (2010) also show that adherence to masculine norms of ‘success, power and competition’ and ‘restrictive emotionality’ are particularly likely to be related to negative views about help-seeking. The work of Levant et al (2011…	/r/MensRights	05/06/17 03:15 PM
1	Samaritan Research on Male suicide in the UK I just want to point out that this research is funded by them but not written by them. They've paid academics to research and provide a review of the literature. I don't know anything about the Samaritans as an organisation.	/r/MensRights	05/06/17 02:54 PM
2	Samaritan Research on Male suicide in the UK No problem mate, happy to discuss :)	/r/MensRights	05/06/17 02:03 PM

1	Samaritan Research on Male suicide in the UK I'm not pushing their agenda, just sharing research funded by them that I think helps. I believe there are positive and negative aspects of both femininity and masculinity, the focus of this research is on masculinity because men are committing suicide in far greater numbers, so it's important to understand psychologically what may be going on.	/r/MensRights	05/06/17 01:54 PM
1	Samaritan Research on Male suicide in the UK Traditionally though, older men today would have been raised expecting to be providers of families, to work full time while wives would bring up the children. I believe there are some aspects of masculinity that are bad, for example, you mentioned invincibility, there is this notion that men have to be tough and strong etc, but this can mean them not seeking help when they need it.	/r/MensRights	05/06/17 01:38 PM
2	Samaritan Research on Male suicide in the UK I just want to say, that for older men alive now, their fathers would have lived in a time where traditionally the men would be the heads of household, work and provide for the family and women would mainly be responsible for the upbringing of children. The values their fathers instilled are not as relevant today. So for older men now, their idea of being a man is less stable, because women work and don't necessarily have to rely on a man to provide, traditional male industry jobs are declining.	/r/MensRights	05/06/17 01:26 PM
3	Samaritan Research on Male suicide in the UK Do you disagree that this as a contributing factor?	/r/MensRights	05/06/17 10:50 AM
5	I think it's time to stop posting Facebook or twitter posts from random people here. Maybe an additional filter to categorise those sort of posts?	/r/MensRights	05/06/17 10:05 AM
15	I think it's time to stop posting Facebook or twitter posts from random people here. I agree, it's better to focus on actual policy that affects men. It's easy to find crazies at either end of the political spectrum. They don't represent the majorities views, but by posting extreme stuff over and over it clouds our perceptions what the real issues and positions are.	/r/MensRights	05/06/17 09:27 AM
4	Interesting thought... Psychologist here, Freud's theory also suggested boys have castration anxiety, where they fear their father with chop of their penis as the male child is assumed to be sexually obsessed with their mother. Girls are said to experience penis envy where they realise they are not boys, and at this point they identify with the mother. But again, these theories were all based on clinical observations, no way to empirically test/validate	/r/MensRights	05/06/17 09:07 AM
