9	what is the most sexist things against men no one cares about or aknowledges Yup this right here. It's seen as totally acceptable to comment on a man being bald, or overweight, or underweight, or too tall, or too short, or have a small dick. Even sometimes at work these types of comments are deemed "just jokes". But try and make similar comments toward a woman....	/r/MensRights	24/11/21 01:43 PM
0	And the marriage rates will keep dropping I would imagine dv and abuse "often" lead to divorce, so this would be expected.	/r/MensRights	24/01/20 04:57 AM
2	Can't Believe She Thought She was In the Right - Recording This! What can I say? I had trouble understanding her. It was a damn sight from the Queen's English.	/r/MensRights	10/02/19 02:51 AM
5	Can't Believe She Thought She was In the Right - Recording This! I understood everything the man said with no trouble. I had to watch it several times to understand what she said and there's still a few words I can't pick up.	/r/MensRights	10/02/19 12:25 AM
12	Can't Believe She Thought She was In the Right - Recording This! You might also say absent fathers are the primary factor.	/r/MensRights	09/02/19 10:23 PM
6	Can't Believe She Thought She was In the Right - Recording This! I disagree. I'm a native English speaker and I seriously struggle to understand aave.	/r/MensRights	09/02/19 10:08 PM
1	Masculinity is now a psychological disorder. Yet more disgusting trends in our culture and absurd throat clearing from feminists in the Atlantic. I assume you know what a straw man argument is? Because you've just crafted an epic all-time straw man here in the service of claiming that the bulk of the psychology and academic community is devoted to bringing down men. I don't disagree with you that there are significant issues with Psychology and Academia in general, but you have taken absurd leaps of logic and stretching of the truth to fit your larger narrative. You claim that EVERY SINGLE SOCIOLOGICAL METRIC that we have data on show…	/r/MensRights	27/01/19 03:07 AM
1	Why do men have such homicide, suicide and depression rates? And why is it higher than it was 50 years ago? (World wide) I would guess that people are just as unstable as ever, but that diagnosis and treatment of mental illnesses is far more prevalent.	/r/MensRights	27/01/19 01:06 AM
6	Masculinity is now a psychological disorder. Yet more disgusting trends in our culture and absurd throat clearing from feminists in the Atlantic. I didn't disagree with the article at all. The OP has horrendously mis-characterized the intent of both the Atlantic piece and the underlying APA guidelines. The article makes it very clear that men are suffering undue harm in our culture, and in no way does it claim that masculinity is a psychological disorder. I get the impression the OP read neither the article nor the guidelines - but rather projected his own shortcomings/insecurities onto the article. Another conservative snowflake.	/r/MensRights	27/01/19 01:00 AM
1	Masculinity is now a psychological disorder. Yet more disgusting trends in our culture and absurd throat clearing from feminists in the Atlantic. You are cherry picking a tiny portion of the overall guidelines. Like so many other posters on MR, you are extrapolating a tiny portion of a nuanced and complicated topic and reducing it down to the parts that you find most offensive. The very first sentence of the guidelines could not be clearer: Clinician awareness of one’s stereotypes and biases against boys and men is a critical dimension of multicultural competence These guidelines are intended to HELP men and boys. At no point does it de…	/r/MensRights	27/01/19 12:56 AM
0	Gillette brand takes a hit as '#metoo' ad backfires - more people in the U.K. have been hearing negative than positive things about Gillette and that “purchase metrics have started to shift downwards”. It's kind of like that viral picture of a dress from a while ago. You're seeing blue & white and can't comprehend why others see white & gold. This is an excellent perspective. Thank you for posting the Quora article. I agree with aspects of it; some of the details are excellent and some of the points are well made. I could go through it line by line a refute many of the errors in the piece, but I have neither the time nor the inclination to do so (as I have a family of my own and my time with t…	/r/MensRights	27/01/19 12:29 AM
-1	Gillette brand takes a hit as '#metoo' ad backfires - more people in the U.K. have been hearing negative than positive things about Gillette and that “purchase metrics have started to shift downwards”. I disagree. It was a commercial targeted at men. There are plenty of commercials targeted at women. Most television outside of sports is targeted at women. The typical commercials targeted at men - beer commercials, fast food - THOSE are the ones that are insulting and give a negative message about men. As I said in another post, the idiot male characters in network television shows are far more damaging. Every father on tv today seems to be a bumbling moron who only manages to survive because o…	/r/MensRights	26/01/19 05:48 PM
0	Gillette brand takes a hit as '#metoo' ad backfires - more people in the U.K. have been hearing negative than positive things about Gillette and that “purchase metrics have started to shift downwards”. Also, unless you edited your comment then I think I may have replied to the wrong person. Sorry of that was the case. Someone earlier posted that Gillette was implying that all men are rapists, and that was who I intended to reply to.	/r/MensRights	26/01/19 05:28 PM
-1	Gillette brand takes a hit as '#metoo' ad backfires - more people in the U.K. have been hearing negative than positive things about Gillette and that “purchase metrics have started to shift downwards”. Of course I did. Just rewatched it. There was mention of sexual assault, metoo, street harassment, bullying etc. If you need them to explicitly say that those things are bad then you are exactly the reason this ad is good.	/r/MensRights	26/01/19 05:26 PM
-3	Gillette brand takes a hit as '#metoo' ad backfires - more people in the U.K. have been hearing negative than positive things about Gillette and that “purchase metrics have started to shift downwards”. they chose to put all men into a box of bad people and tell them to improve. They didn't do this at all. They didn't say all men are bad. In fact the men they feature most prominently are the ones doing the right things. If you were so offended by this ad you are either exactly the people doing the bad things, or you're an easily offended snowflake. I say this as a man who is frequently annoyed with the bumbling idiot men portrayed on nearly every television show.	/r/MensRights	26/01/19 04:31 PM
-4	Gillette brand takes a hit as '#metoo' ad backfires - more people in the U.K. have been hearing negative than positive things about Gillette and that “purchase metrics have started to shift downwards”. You're either an idiot or an actual rapist. The only people Gillette called rapists are rapists. Normal men with a healthy ego aren't offended when someone says that rape is bad and rapists are bad.	/r/MensRights	26/01/19 04:21 PM
2	#himtoo There are plenty of other sources. I picked the one with the easiest to digest summary. It's incredibly lazy and nonproductive to dismiss the source rather than address the issue at hand.	/r/MensRights	28/09/18 12:09 AM
3	#himtoo That's not how it works. Those statement are NOT under oath. No one can be brought up on perjury charges for lies in those statements. The Republicans have suppressed attempts to subpoena Judge and the others so that they are not forced to testify under oath. There is only one party suppressing facts in this particular instance - and it's the one that is attempting to rush the process.	/r/MensRights	28/09/18 12:07 AM
1	#himtoo Incorrect. Directly from the article you linked: "“These official letters from the 4 named by Dr. Ford—denying any knowledge of what Dr. Ford has alleged—serve the same purpose as sworn testimony,” Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), a member of the judiciary committee, wrote on Twitter on Sept. 23. “We remain hopeful we’ll hear sworn testimony from the 5th, Dr. Ford herself.”” So it is NOT sworn testimony. They are simply treating the letters as if it was sworn testimony...but it isn't. No one is accuse…	/r/MensRights	27/09/18 09:45 PM
2	#himtoo Dude hasn't explained the huge debts accumulated and rapidly paid off over the years. You really didn't look very hard if you only found 2 sources. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2018/09/the-many-mysteries-of-brett-kavanaughs-finances/ As for the perjury - it has nothing to do with the sexual assaults - it's about earlier actions: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/09/17/did-brett-kavanaugh-give-false-testimony-under-oath/ As I said - these are questions which haven't yet been ad…	/r/MensRights	27/09/18 09:41 PM
1	#himtoo My point is that there are MAJOR issues with this guy - potential problems with drinking, gambling, lying under oath, and that's all in addition to the potential sexual improprieties. ANY of these should be disqualifying for a SC justice.	/r/MensRights	27/09/18 09:02 PM
9	#himtoo Can't, because the investigation has been blocked by Grassley, McConnell and Trump.	/r/MensRights	27/09/18 08:18 PM
-7	#himtoo I don't believe writing a letter carries the same perjury penalty as testifying before Congress. These letters are not sworn testimony.	/r/MensRights	27/09/18 08:18 PM
16	#himtoo There is nothing vague about Ford's accusations.	/r/MensRights	27/09/18 05:48 PM
9	#himtoo Incorrect. The witnesses are being prevented from testifying under oath.	/r/MensRights	27/09/18 05:46 PM
7	#himtoo You are glossing over the fact that the Republicans in the Senate and white House are preventing an investigation from taking place. Grassley wants cavenaugh confirmed before next week.	/r/MensRights	27/09/18 05:45 PM
2	My mother said she can't leave her house at 1am because she is a woman. I mean....she's right. Probably really smart. I wouldn't wany my mother or wife on the streets of rio at 1am alone.	/r/MensRights	11/01/18 06:58 PM
