This is basically all special college funds to attract new talent - by college, practically everyone knows if they want to be a doctor or a businessman or a programmer. Most people who change their major still stay in the same wheelhouse (e.g. Electrical Engineering to IT, Pre-med to Exercise Science). If they won't stay in the program without the help, then "forcing" them to stay by making their ability to fund their education dependent on staying is just going to create stress and regret. True…

If you mean "they would've acted in favor of Masterpiece Cakeshop", maybe. If you mean "there wouldn't have been a religious discrimination case", I'm not sure I agree. A big part of the cakeshop's argument was that they weren't refused to do business with them, just that he wouldn't do a custom cake because of religious reasons.

No, Colorado lost because the Supreme Court ruled that the CRC of Colorado was, in every way, shape, and form, completely biased against the cakeshop owner's religion. The SCotUS made no ruling on whether the law itself was unconstitutional. In fact, the opinion noted that Kennedy would have likely ruled in favor of Colorado had they acted with neutrality.

The short answer is the Fifth Amendment - requiring all evidence be turned over to the prosecution will inevitably ask someone to provide evidence that proves their guilt. It's especially bad if the defendant actually isn't guilty, but they have some evidence that makes it seem such. The longer answer answer is because the prosecution should already have their story, and requiring that any and all evidence be turned over to them just allows them to change the story before the trial. However, if …

Not quite. There's an extra layer here: action vs inaction. If no one does anything, in a donor situation the person needing the donation dies, but in a pregnancy the baby (probably) lives. You can't force someone to take action or punish them for non-action in these scenarios unless the person is in some kind of position of responsibility over the others' situation (e.g. a parachute packer and the injured person went skydiving). Just knowing of someone's existence and plight doesn't make you re…

I view it as more of a tactic. Once you get a bunch of people earnestly defending Amber saying nothing should happen until a court case, then you can prove once and for all that feminism is about sexism. "They rush to attack the accused when it's a man, even without any evidence, but now are saying to wait when the accused is a woman, even though Johnny Depp has a mountain of evidence."

Tell me, anyone who uses and believes in toxic masculinity, what exactly in REAL TERMS are you doing to reduce men killing themselves? So you've coined a term and you use it... now what?

This guy is absolute scum, but if this woman gets a $2 million a year salary purely for saying "I do", then her new full time job is accounting for where all that money goes. If they it doesn't go towards purely necessities, then he should be able to take her back to court and have it reduced. Marrying someone does not give you an unconditional right to their property for life. It should always be conditional on staying married.

Here's another double standard to keep in your pocket. When talking about Trump and racists, how often do we hear about "Even if Trump is not a racist, his rhetoric emboldens racists to act out so he's bad"?

Study? Because we have a real-world example of Australia implementing blind hiring and stopping it because more men were getting hired. We also have the APA showing a direct correlation between "a strong desire to help others" and career choices while also showing that more girls had that desire. This study also found that women were not any less likely to receive an offer from a company, which goes against the "men conspiring" conspiracy, but instead found that women just choose different jobs.…

Polygraphs don't say whether or not something happened. They say someone believes something happened, and are easy to cheat. For that reason, polygraphs are not admissible in court as proof.

I honestly don't think so. It was just the number I pulled from RAINN because that's the source feminists like to use. Right away, I know the real number of valid rape reports ending in conviction is going to be higher because, as someone else said, they assume all rape reports to be valid. Another problem that prevents rape reports from being able to be convicted is that victims often shower right afterwards because they feel disgusting, but that washes off a ton of evidence. I don't doubt that…

To phrase what you said differently, that is 5.5% are proven false. This doesn't mean that 94.5% of claims are true though, any more than the 2% of rape reports ending in conviction number means that 98% of reports are false. We just don't know.

'You are wrong, the term is fine' and not, 'Oh shit, I didn't realise, I'll think of a better way to say what I mean'. Ironically, the proponents of the term "toxic masculinity" are also the biggest advocates of "If someone tells you your language is problematic, don't defend it, just apologize and ask how to be better." As expected, though, "someone" excludes "men".

This. There's a difference between "I was raped" and "Person X raped me." The first is a cry for help and support, and the person deserves some unless they're the type of pond scum that will lie about something like that. The second is an accusation, and Person X is innocent until proven guilty.

"People will do it anyway" is not a good reason to legalize (or keep legal) something. People still murder, people still steal, etc. Unfair discrimination against religions? Sure, there's a case to be made there.

Because clearly women and minorities are inferior to white males. That's the only rationale behind giving preference based on skin color rather than merit.

No, it is nitpicking. I'm not "changing partway through the analogy" anything. The company was not part of the original analogy. I never said who the sex "release form" was with. You are the one declaring what things in the analogy mean. Even if there is no perceived life threat for the rape case, yes. There are times when there is a clash of individual rights, yes, but a child's right to live trumps others' rights to not be inconvenienced. A child's right to live doesn't trump a parent's right …

Again, nitpicking the analogy in order to purposefully miss the point. Actually, there can be multiple reasons for something to happen. Regardless, when you choose to have sex, you are saying you weighed the risks against the benefits and decided the risks were worth it. Sucks that you played Russian Roulette and didn't like the outcome, but that's the outcome. How is ensuring the freedom of a society not beneficial to society? Is freedom not beneficial? Is that what you're trying to say? Why do…
/r/MensRights26/01/17 09:21 PM

No, but it makes it so you can't take action against the company. Consenting to sex makes it so you can't take action against any resulting baby. Again, not that hard to understand. Because she came forward about the rape when it happened or, in the case of getting drugged and not knowing about getting raped, she reported getting drugged and it fits the timeline. Who said anything about "think[ing], for no reason, that it's going to harm [me]"? You threw in the "no reason" after I answered. Can …
/r/MensRights26/01/17 07:53 PM

Again, completely missing the point of the analogy. When you sign a release form, you aren't doing it because you want to get hurt, but you understand that there is a risk you are accepting because of it and, as such, you are waiving your right to be free from whatever happens in favor of something else. There are other ways to show that someone was raped, even without a criminal trial to try to prove who the rapist is. If you honestly believe that the child is going to do harm, yes. At no point…
/r/MensRights26/01/17 03:52 AM

It makes a lot of sense. Ever heard of a release form? It wouldn't matter who raped her, just that it gets determined that she was raped. If we make abortions such that it can only be allowed in the cases of rape, why wouldn't that encourage women to come forward if they've been raped? It does have a right to life, just like everyone has a right to life. However, sometimes there are conflicts of rights, and in that case preference has to be decided. In the case of breaking and entering, the burg…

I never said I'm expecting everyone to only have sex when they want a baby. You asked how you would determine if someone had been raped in order to process with the abortion. I've answered that question probably around 10 times already. If you don't get it by now there's no helping you.

Giving someone medical care due to a car accident doesn't involve killing someone, and the biological function of driving isn't to crash. Or, you know, rape kits. "Any other medical procedure" doesn't kill someone. There have to be special circumstances.
/r/MensRights25/01/17 02:46 PM

Yes, there is. A baby conceived in consensual sex was given consent to form. A baby conceived in rape was not. That's why a woman has more leeway. It's really not this hard to understand.
/r/MensRights25/01/17 03:06 AM

You keep missing the point of the analogy. The point is, no one was let into the house, ergo the property owner has more options when it comes to protecting what is his or hers. I wouldn't be fine with it, no, but it is preferable to the current situation.
/r/MensRights24/01/17 08:38 PM

No, not at all. That's like saying because I think you should be able to kill someone who breaks into your house that I don't care about murder. The two situations are different. I writing say yes as well. However, in the name of equality, I say that if we're going to allow women to abort, men should have the option to "abort" as well. If we force men to stick to a child they may not want, we should do the same for women.
/r/MensRights24/01/17 05:36 PM

Yep. In that case the mother didn't consent to her body being used. In that case it's up to her to decide. I'm not saying every child conceived of rape should or has to be killed, I'm just saying that the mother has a little more leeway in that situation.
/r/MensRights24/01/17 04:49 PM

There is an exception in the case of rape and in that case it is up to the victim to determine if they want to abort or not. A person does not have the right to murder their child just because their child is a mooch. Don't worry, I'm not wavering. I appreciate the concern though.
/r/MensRights24/01/17 03:06 PM

That's for the mother to determine. I've refuted it many times. When it comes to parents, there are special rules when it comes to taking care of them. One of the "not special" rules is you are not allowed to kill anyone except in self-defense. Unless you can prove that the mother's life is in reasonable danger because of the pregnancy, her (or his, when it comes to providing financially) convenience does not trump the child's rights. You have yet to refute that. Donating organs or not is a pass…
/r/MensRights24/01/17 03:11 AM

Yep. If that child poses a danger to me and I am not responsible for the situation I am in, sure. A lot better than thinking it okay to murder children in all situations, don't you think? Because birth control is not 100% effective, and everyone knows it. They decided to take the risk, however small. I'm not expecting that of anyone. Giving up for adoption is also an option. Sad that those women would rather die than be pregnant.
/r/MensRights24/01/17 12:52 AM

If she believes the baby poses some kind of threat, if she really wants to. She never consented to it being there. No, abortion is not necessary. If your family planning involves murdering your children, then you are one psychopathic individual. You should be responsible for your choices. Government should not allow murder.
/r/MensRights23/01/17 11:52 PM

Because at that point she never consented for the child to use her body. Makes sense to me. I'm not telling people if they should or shouldn't. I'm saying that, given their desires to not have children, then it would be in their best interest to not risk it. If they do decide to risk it, oh well. That's not the child's fault and as such the child doesn't deserve to be killed. It is a false dichotomy.You said either we legalize abortions or we have a bunch of kids in the welfare system.

Because it is not there by consent of anyone except the rapist. Akin to "breaking and entering", if you will. You can't let someone in your front door and then shoot them for trespassing. It's considered a person with rights in 38 states where murdering a pregnant woman at any stage of pregnancy is considered "double homicide". That includes far-left California. No one is punishing women for having sex. If anyone considers it a punishment, then maybe they shouldn't be risking children. I don't w…

It should be blanket banned except in cases of rape or the mother's life is in danger. Unless you can prove on a case-by-case basis that the child can survive outside the womb (which was your original criteria), then you cannot ban it at any point. That is the issue, actually. The child is already receiving care, and then the parent tries to come along and kill their child while care is being given. No, you knew regardless that sex results in children and that there's always a chance that it can…

And some babies have survived as early as 21 weeks, so again, unless you can prove with 100% accuracy that a baby will not survive, the condition is arbitrary. And yes, I did. I'm sorry that you may have missed it. When it comes to being a parent, you cannot legally deny your child medical care. If your kid is already hooked up the the dialysis machine, you can't unplug the machine. Also, everyone involved already consented to the potential outcome of a child when they had sex. Otherwise that's …
/r/MensRights23/01/17 03:07 PM

Okay, so how do you determine if a child is able to live outside the womb? It's not the same for every fetus. Unless you can 100% pinpoint when an unborn child will be able to survive outside the womb, you are drawing arbitrary lines. No one forced the person to have sex (in 99.5% of abortion cases, that is).
/r/MensRights23/01/17 04:54 AM

The source said that 4% had their primary concern be for the mother's health, .5% were because of rape. If you can't afford it, you will be severely inconvenienced with either needing to fill out government paperwork to receive aid or another job to support the kid. That's just inconvenience.
/r/MensRights23/01/17 04:53 AM

It is arbitrary. Why does passing through a vaginal canal suddenly make you deserving of rights? In 95% of cases it is a matter of convenience, and only in .018% of cases in the US is it fatal to the mother, and we don't even know how many of those are completely unexpected. The risk of death is too small to justify killing the child. You are not killing people when you take Nyquil or Penicillin.
/r/MensRights23/01/17 04:38 AM

So you're going to arbitrarily deny humans their human rights in favor of someone else's convenience. That sounds awfully familiar. No one is forcing anyone to do anything with their body they do not want to do. If they really had no intention of having kids, they should not have had sex. When you have sex, you also consent to the biological consequences of your actions. That's like saying you consent to getting shot in the face but you're not consenting to dying because of it.

Power dynamic refers to social power, so possibly, but we trust the adult woman to come forward about it or, if someone else notices something and reports it, to at least tell the truth about it if confronted. Because she's an adult and not a 13-year-old child. Would you say you wanted to bang an adult more than you wanted to bang someone your own age back then?

If we are going to say that someone under duress isn't able to make well-informed decisions enough to be held accountable for them (which is the reasoning behind entrapment, for example), then we have a situation where a student did not have the capability to give a well-informed decision when it came to whether or not to have sex with their teacher. Being coerced under threat, whether explicit or implicit, to have sex with someone is rape.
/r/MensRights04/06/16 09:58 AM

But you can ask the student about it: "Did (s)he threaten you or force you in any way?" It's a simple yes or no question. Then, the student, being in a distraught state and not thinking rationally, lies and says "No", fearing whatever consequence the teacher threatened if they had told the truth. This "power dynamic" is mostly a myth since, as I have stated about a dozen times now, if anyone threatens or forces someone to have sex it's clearly rape regardless of their age or social standing That…

They can give consent just fine if their partner is about their age, but not if their partner is older? How's that logical? There's a power dynamic.

If you lock something up and then throw away the key, whatever it is that you want to keep safe will be safe forever (barring bolt-cutters). A lock without a key still serves a purpose. A key without a lock, on the other hand, is a bit of scrap metal.

The whole point is why there is the "lock and key" comparison in the first place. Frankly, considering women to be the "lock" is partially putting them on a pedestal and therefore contributing to the idea of male disposability.

Guys, I think you're all failing to see the upside to this. Unknowingly married a feminist? Tired of her, but don't want to get screwed over by the divorce? Just go out, get drunk, and have sex with all the women you want. You can't be considered cheating on her because you're drunk! Who cares that you said yes to all that sex? I mean, come on, considering it cheating would be holding you responsible for your actions while drunk, and that's just not possible.

A core tenet of feminism is that women are inherently unequal to men and therefore cannot do everything a man can do so therefore qualifications need to be lowered or special consideration needs to be given to women because women are inferior and need all the help they can get.

While I see the importance for differentiating between "I'm defending myself" vs "We both beat each other up because that's what we do", I think the original study is a great commentary on how much male DV goes unpunished socially. Whether or not it is legally unpunished is a different study to do.

A) Do I think it's a good idea for a company to do that? Yes. Do I think it's a good idea for the government to force companies to do that? No. I believe that because companies would be forced to pay people for not working (while you are on leave, you don't work), they would reduce average salaries of everybody to compensate on the chance that the person has a baby to take care of.

I thought the term we used to describe what you're talking about was "earnings gap". A pay gap brings to mind a man getting paid $10/hr for a job and a woman getting paid $7/hr for the job. An earnings gap says "Both get paid $10/hr, but the man worked more hours, so he ends up earning $10,000 compared to the woman's $8,000".

It's not entirely that he's saying women are capable of that, because in the same vein of logic, someone could go off on a rant about how almost everything men do is wrapped up in rape and putting women down and we would get up in arms about it.

Both care about men's issues, however, which is what you were asking for. But anyway, you're being pretty sexist here, so I'll leave it at this: Sexism is not tolerated in the MRM. I get that you probably have been burned by women in the past, but it doesn't give you leeway to generalize them like you are doing. Doing such a thing is no better than "10% of M&M's are poison" or any of the other generalizations of men that feminists do. We are above that. Don't stoop to their level.

I will say, it was pretty awesome of him to say “I will not live with the guilt of someone passing away, but I will live with the guilt of sending the picture.” That kid has a real understanding of what is and isn't his fault. I do wonder, though, if police say they estimate the boy had 11 shots and her 8 and by the feminist idea …

No no no, comrade. Look in The Feminist's Dictionary. sex·ism noun \ˈsek-ˌsi-zəm\ : Prejudice from someone in power against us poor womyns. This is preferential treatment on the basis of sex, but because womyn have no power, it can't be sexist. It's impossible to be sexist against womyn.

He said the female staff member told him, "You could have just left her ... If I were a man in your shoes, I would have definitely called 911." So, did the hotline operator start "womansplaining"?

Technically, a parent can make whatever decision they want for their child. Just to throw a semi-crazy example out there, if the child signs a DNR but when something happens to the child, the parent says "Resuscitate my child." The whole point of government is not to tell people how to be good people. It's to get everybody else out of the way so people can be the best they can.

You know, I haven't ever thought of it because personally, circumcision is not an issue I have an issue with. Just like with government, I'm sure the MRM has an exception for closely-held religious beliefs.

To be 100% fair here, I think the point of this is to take common tips given to women to avoid getting raped and flip it around onto the guy to say how ridiculous they are. The whistle one especially is kind of what gave me that impression.

A couple things to keep in mind here: LuLu isn't a cultural phenomenon like other apps such as Tinder or Candy Crush. "Feminist" and "feminism" does not mean "woman" or "women". It's not hypocrisy if it's not the same person/group doing the contradictory action. "We need to be able to protect ourselves from potentially abusive men" is going to be a common justification you'll get from a feminist. They'll ignore the fact that it's not the point of the app and they could very easily make their own…

While that is completely right, the problem is that there is very little actual evidence. The only thing that they can hope for is a confession, which you don't get out of someone unless you bully them. Bill Cosby is probably the last celebrity that should be bullied.

"Sexism: prejudice, stereotyping, or discrimination on the basis of sex. Man: an adult human male Male: of or denoting the sex that produces small, typically motile gametes, especially spermatozoa, with which a female may be fertilized or inseminated to produce offspring. Male is a sex. You can discriminate against someone based on the fact they are male. Check your privilege."

Except I explicitly state that we think it's wrong to generalize, even if facts back you up, and yet the feminists somehow justify their generalizations because "patriarchy". The wording I give especially states that we know that it is a minority of black people that steal, just like it's a minority of men that rape, even though, based on the stats we have, there are more men that rape than women. EDIT: Though if it really bothers you, I can try a different wording.

That's exactly my point. Feminists very much love their poisoned M&M analogy when all it's condoning is sweeping generalizations of a group. I bring race into it because people are a lot more sensitive to that issue and are a lot less blind to what is wrong about that.

Not at all. It'd be like if she did her acceptance speech wearing a t-shirt with muscular men wearing speedos and flexing on it. It's tacky, yes, but nothing to get up in arms about.

Because feminism is popular and MRAs are seen as "anti-feminist", purely because we see and combat the damage that feminism has done to men that the majority of feminists don't see or ignore because "men are less important".

That was something I saw, I think here on /r/mensrights, where it turns out that it's not an issue of one's sex that makes one more likely to call out to people on the street but rather one's economic class. The poorer people tend to be the ones that call out (cultural upbringing aside).

Garner more attention? Yeah. I guess my deal is that the attention, even though an attractive person wearing attractive clothing may garner a lot of it, doesn't need to be vocalized. That's where it crosses the line. Not into "harassment", mind you, but can be considered rude. Intermingling simple greetings, however, as was done in the original, in no way is rude or harassing.

The South is a lot warmer (heh) than the rest of the states. This was New York, probably the most emotionally distant place. I'm with you on the not harassment bit, though.

Guys, the question he's asking is what "-ism" would be "a focus on men's rights" like how feminism is (supposed to be) "a focus on women's rights." It's "masculism".

The mispronunciation one was a joke. The points may be true, but it's such a skewed view of said points that I can't give them much credence. So because I don't agree with a lot of Red Pill's crap. I'm a purple poodle? Well I'll be damned.

A very common tactic in any persuasive scene is to adopt the language (language, not tactics, which is important) of your opponent and use it against them. Look at the buzzwords or themes of their arguments and turn it around. For example, "privilege" is a common one. To start you off, there's a macro that I've seen circle here about how it's male "privilege" to be more likely to be a victim of murder, face a longer jail time for the same crime, etc. but there is no outcry to that from the femin…

Ehm, the youtube channel is called "Red Pill Philosophy", so I'm cautious. Good Points: Greeting people considered "harassment"? Attractiveness of person doing something is taken into consideration when the recipient of such action is determining if something was good or bad. "Have a nice day" is turned into an excuse to be a victim Points that cause me to pause: "She wore tight jeans, she was asking for it" "Fat girls wish they had this attention" "Victim of too many men wanting to feed you, pl…

Well, it's Live Action News. A cursory glance will tell you it's going to be conservative and preachy. That being said, I think the wording is very careful in the article. It says a real man does not expect sexting/nude pictures/etc. and I would say, while they don't ever really classify what they mean by "real", it's a perfectly valid point. Couple that with "a real man can wait until marriage" and it means that he's perfectly able to (which goes back to "doesn't expect anything"), but doesn't …

As one who has lived in Argentina for a couple years, I just am appalled at what feminism in the United States focuses on (I can't speak to other countries as I haven't lived in others). I hate third-wave feminism with a passion, because it's not about equality at all. It's a contest of who can claim to be the most hurt by men.

Care to explain how? I really appreciate the fact that it comes out and says that men aren't sex-crazed lunatics who can't control themselves. That's the image that feminists like to portray and the article rejects it.
