3	"Don't Buy Into The Gender Pay Gap Myth" - even Forbes agrees! That's about as myopic of a comment as I could imagine on him. As far as I can tell, he's the only one in this race who wants people in general to have a sense of equality and opportunity. That does include white males btw	/r/MensRights	13/04/16 03:42 AM
8	Saw this on Facebook. As far as I know no one died fighting for the women to vote. Yeah, not all men! Sorry, couldn't help it. Just seemed like it had to be done. :)	/r/MensRights	29/01/16 06:50 PM
2	Man fired over calling feminist Clementine Ford a slut I had to go back over the article after reading your comment to make sure I hadn't misread the article hehe. It was somehow not the most clearly written piece :/ And yeah, she had her feelings hurt (and in reality not likely the case) so she set out to try and ensure that he was punished in some manner, foregoing any kind of proportional or adult response. So yes, she was spiteful in her response and likely had designs to attempt to have his employer fire him, but ultimately, it was the hotel gr…	/r/MensRights	02/12/15 06:30 PM
13	Man fired over calling feminist Clementine Ford a slut He was actually a hotel supervisor, not a journalist. So he was just a guy going off at the mouth and happened to have stated the actual company he worked for on his FB page who took offense at his personal comment when it was reported to them by Clementine. He said something inappropriate that she didn't like so she told his employer with the intent to cause him grief. Not sure how that plays out in AU, but in the US he could contact something like the ACLU for advice and representation.	/r/MensRights	02/12/15 05:46 PM
1	Women's prisons do more harm than good. Justice Secretary Michael Gove announced “a new beginning for female offenders with women prisoners serving their sentences in more humane surroundings better designed to keep them out of crime. But men he does not care about! Okay, I'll take some time here to try and calrify some things Treating root causes sounds like a much better investment of time and money With with you implied that not incarcerating criminal women would be a good solution, because otherwise they'd raise even more criminals. False. I may have been implying other things, and I certainly was. You simply assumed that that was what I meant instead of asking what I meant by root causes. Also I disagree that it is standard, in the way that many crimin…	/r/MensRights	28/11/15 12:32 AM
1	Women's prisons do more harm than good. Justice Secretary Michael Gove announced “a new beginning for female offenders with women prisoners serving their sentences in more humane surroundings better designed to keep them out of crime. But men he does not care about! Can you show me where in my comments I stated that women should not go to jail, please? Your equal solution is also pretty much the standard where I live. Seems like the most reasonable solution to an otherwise bad situation. And no, bad mothers are not the direct cause of crime. Nope, no objective reason to favor women in regards to sentencing. Never said that there was. Also never said that the betterment of society is acheived by treating any gender, race, or creed better than another. Maybe …	/r/MensRights	27/11/15 05:47 PM
1	Women's prisons do more harm than good. Justice Secretary Michael Gove announced “a new beginning for female offenders with women prisoners serving their sentences in more humane surroundings better designed to keep them out of crime. But men he does not care about! Most systems attempt to place a child with family first before resorting to things like foster care.	/r/MensRights	27/11/15 05:30 PM
1	Women's prisons do more harm than good. Justice Secretary Michael Gove announced “a new beginning for female offenders with women prisoners serving their sentences in more humane surroundings better designed to keep them out of crime. But men he does not care about! Why? If, as the article states, women are the primary care givers, then they are primarily responsible for raising the boys who become dysfunctional men who end up in prison. Correct? Instead of the suggestions put forth in the article, we should probably look into root causes and invest in resolving those issues, which would be for the betterment of society as a whole. Right?	/r/MensRights	26/11/15 10:42 PM

But men he does not care about! And according to the article, women are the primary care givers. So they are the ones raising all of these dysfunctional felons?

217	Men are not monsters: Last week three of my four boys were herded into school-sponsored assemblies and asked to stand, raise their hands and pledge to never, ever hurt a woman. Their female classmates weren’t required to make a similar pledge. A male may not injure a female or, through inaction, allow a female to come to harm. A male must obey orders given it by females except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. A male must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. They left out the third law for some reason.	/r/MensRights	25/11/15 08:24 PM
1	Male college student silenced by his professor for challenging the bogus "1 in 5 college women are raped" statistic and the idea of "rape culture" Part of me must have really been itching for a fight today hehe Interesting fact about piranha's, they are only aggressive if kept on live food in captivity. They get pretty docile and even shy if kept on other foods.	/r/MensRights	20/03/15 04:31 AM

12	Male college student silenced by his professor for challenging the bogus "1 in 5 college women are raped" statistic and the idea of "rape culture" I failed...I read the comments. I then made comments. Logical questions and attempts to make them question their own presumptions and hypocritical statements. I am doomed.	/r/MensRights	19/03/15 08:11 PM
3	Feminist reaction to Cathy Young's article on Columbia Univ false rape accusation proves why MensRights are necessary in today's world Totally not necessary, I wasn't trying to say that your comment was wrong, sorry if came across that way. There just seems to be that people today tend to refuse to acknowledge things just because they don't agree with it or they sidestep the issue entirely and attempt some bizarre barrage of rhetoric to make it seem like they're right. There are likely some in that thread who made no attempt at reading the article at all and just on the basis of the title decided that it could only be wrong and…	/r/MensRights	04/02/15 06:27 PM
14	Feminist reaction to Cathy Young's article on Columbia Univ false rape accusation proves why MensRights are necessary in today's world I would disagree. I think they did, but simply refuse to accept that there is more than one side of an issue if it doesn't mesh with their ideology.	/r/MensRights	04/02/15 06:04 PM
8	Feminist reaction to Cathy Young's article on Columbia Univ false rape accusation proves why MensRights are necessary in today's world There would be, but it would likely end up in the most horrifying version of Lord of the Flies that anyone could possibly imagine.	/r/MensRights	04/02/15 06:03 PM
6	New York City Fire Department drops physical test to boost female hiring Another thought; What if dropping the physical testing portion doesn't lead to any significant increase in female hiring and just increases the number of non able males and the risk of accidents and deaths on the job? Then what? Also, if dropping the physical testing requirements does lead to increased hiring of females, then isn't that just an admission of an inability to do the same job as a man? Women can do the job if they want to. It just takes similar commitment and dedication to develop t…	/r/MensRights	15/12/14 03:43 PM
2	New York City Fire Department drops physical test to boost female hiring I guess if people end up dying because the people attempting to rescue them couldn't, and the lawsuits start rolling in for negligence in their hiring process, they might reconsider. SMH	/r/MensRights	15/12/14 03:39 PM
5	One question in the mandatory sexual misconduct quiz for all students at the University of Oklahoma. You're missing my point though. My post wasn't about what /we/ think is or is not the problem. It was about what they, the university, have determined is a factor behind 82% of all non-consensual sex. Logic says that if that is a contributory factor that large, then they should want to address that in order to remedy their issues.	/r/MensRights	12/12/14 05:30 PM
7	One question in the mandatory sexual misconduct quiz for all students at the University of Oklahoma. The answer to the question poses something interesting; 82% percent of those who engaged in non-consensual sexual intercourse were under the influence of alcohol or drugs. If that's the case, then why aren't they looking to ban the use of those for anyone who is enrolled at the university? Problem solved! Obviously it is not as simple as that, but if they're truly concerned about their students and their well being, they should be looking for root causes and solving for those in order to reduce …	/r/MensRights	12/12/14 05:06 PM
5	Pink Zones for female drivers Oh my! Someone who understands how data works. That makes me smile. Unfortunately, how data is supposed to work isn't nearly as important as how one can make data say whatever is advantageous for them these days.	/r/MensRights	05/11/14 05:24 PM

2	My son's school had 'take your dad to school day' today. This was the literature they handed out. [x-post from /r/daddit] I think you're missing the issue, unless your real argument is just about gender neutral copy for a typically male role. I think people get that, but that's likely the smallest of issues here. Schools should not be focusing on either mothers or fathers to be more active in their children's school and education. They instead, can and should focus on encouraging parents to be involved. Now, if we need copy for a gender/parent neutral day, i'd be happy to put something together. Don't think we do t…	/r/MensRights	01/10/14 03:30 PM
1	My son's school had 'take your dad to school day' today. This was the literature they handed out. [x-post from /r/daddit] Okay then. How about not using it then and either finding one that is gender neutral or write your own damn pamphlet material? Take a step back to see the suggestions from the larger perspective they are coming from.	/r/MensRights	01/10/14 03:04 PM
5	My son's school had 'take your dad to school day' today. This was the literature they handed out. [x-post from /r/daddit] How do you think the kids that don't have dads might feel on that day? This is just one reason why schools are supposed to be neutral grounds.	/r/MensRights	01/10/14 02:54 PM
2	My son's school had 'take your dad to school day' today. This was the literature they handed out. [x-post from /r/daddit] So no real effort put forth by the school to consider that some of the kids may not have fathers? Maybe their dad died during service overseas, or gasp has two mommies! This is a great example of something that was executed with absolutely no thought or consideration by some myopic reactionary.	/r/MensRights	01/10/14 02:49 PM
7	My son's school had 'take your dad to school day' today. This was the literature they handed out. [x-post from /r/daddit] I can kinda agree that it's not really "anti" mom or dad. It is however very patronizing and condescending to towards dads in that it is very "pro-mom". Give mom a break. Don't make mom do everything. Respect the mom. This is not the proper avenue for this, and is especially not so when it's a take dad to school day. It's like the equivalent of 1950's literature condescendingly telling women how to be better wives. That's exactly what it sounds like. I can understand schools wanting to encourage…	/r/MensRights	01/10/14 02:44 PM
2	If a man is offered $100 to do a job, a woman who is equally qualified, with the same education, experience, and ability is likely to earn how much for the same work? Data that is 3 years out of date? You do realize that most comprehensive studies in order to provide and support empirical evidence can only be performed every few years. It requires a fair amount of funding, research and most of all time to collate, make sense of, re-evaluate and eventually publish. That being said, I love the statistic. It takes nothing other than the highest level of data and compares it. It offers absolutely nothing of value.	/r/MensRights	27/09/14 09:39 PM
13	The tragic loss of personal responsibility and the article which got a Forbes writer fired for discussing the sad state of modern campus life His intentions were reasonable and the op-ed was written from the correct perspective of an alumni president, which is to say that he was trying to get guys to understand how to protect the frat and by association, both the men at the party and the women who might want to attend. All things considered though, he did write a really bad article and published it in the wrong venue to boot. Based on that, it isn't all that surprising he was fired. You should see Salon's take on it though. Women are …	/r/MensRights	25/09/14 05:51 PM
76	Workplace gender equality Sheesh, so how did that right there not make him eligible? Maybe he could re-apply after that and explain his run in with discrimination from some un-named committee at a university. It would be hilarious if they ate it up.	/r/MensRights	22/09/14 03:05 PM
2	My school has female only gym hours. I would really appreciate some advice on what we should do. Was there was some sort of disclosure to the student body as to why the women only hours were implemented in the first place? Your options are going to be somewhat dependent on the "why". If the hours were implemented just so they can have some time away from men during those specific hours, it would not be unreasonable to request that men be allowed the same consideration. Perhaps alternating between women or men only hours during those hours. One week women get the M, W, Fri, and the men get t…	/r/MensRights	17/09/14 04:18 AM
