15	Refuted from a job interview because they don't have enough women workers. I've been working in IT 25 years and during our last round of recruitment we (the techs doing the interviews) were strongly "encouraged" to hire female. I'd never experienced this before as we have pretty strong discrimination laws (as far as I can tell none were broken). We did hire a female out of that round, but not because we had to, because she was the best and has since proved an absolute asset to the team. These sort of gender quotas help nobody worth helping. Men with applicable skills a…	/r/MensRights	13/06/21 07:56 PM
21	Imagine how non-credible and clearly in the wrong this woman must’ve been to get arrested when she was trying to get her boyfriend arrested. In Australia no less It absolutely is. If there was an issue with the conduct of the officers, make that the focus of the article. This is a witch hunt. Previous AVOs (which are easily obtained and unfortunately at times used as weapons) are absolutely being used to "signal" proof of guilt with the male as well as the use of 3rd party experts who weren't on the scene (one of who is a CEO of a business whose model is based on female domestic violence victims) is a deliberate attempt to undermine faith in the police f…	/r/MensRights	21/05/21 06:55 AM
5	Too harsh? Interested to see the response (if there is one) Great idea. I do wonder how many women at least view themselves as egalitarian, however are so dosed up on the feminist Kool-aid they just can't see that the system and western cultural norms discriminate against all genders. My view, you are either egalitarian, or your are sexist and/or racist. Egalitarian implies you are willing to listen to the views/concerns of those with a different life story to your own, and if necessary be prepared to alter your own views to fit the egalitarian narrative…	/r/MensRights	18/05/21 10:54 PM
4	High-school boys made to stand and apologise for being male Hey, yeah I did. At least my families interpretation of what happened. It is an interesting spectrum. Vice principal made the suggestion of doing this which the principal then agreed on. They have since issued an apology, though not clear how this was done or to what audience. My niece said it was super uncomfortable, my mum (retired teacher) was livid while my sister not agreeing with what happened, doesn't see what the fuss is about. Seems that spectrum is largely reflected through the communi…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	06/05/21 12:30 AM
3	The Women who Criticize their Partners - Men's Mental Health 15 Great vid. So important that women speak to this more openly, men doing it is seen as confirmation by so many.	/r/MensRights	07/04/21 10:17 PM
26	High-school boys made to stand and apologise for being male Oh heck, I have family that go to this school. Going to have to make some calls tomorrow and get the goss. Some people really don't stop and think do they, principal should 100% lose their job on this one. She has enabled some real damage to those boys on this one.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	25/03/21 12:13 PM
1	After years of being angry and frustrated with how poorly men are treated, I've decided to take up family law and become an attorney to fight for men's rights. Please tell me your story. This is outright terrifying. The bias is just astounding. I hope above all else that you get meaningful time with your kids as young adults and they are aware of just how hard you tried to be a part their lives.	/r/MensRights	22/03/21 09:07 PM
1	The UN removes the International Men's Day Lol, I'm not the one claiming Bigfoot does or doesn't exist. Nor did I claim the UN removed the IMD from their calendar out of malice, I'm simply saying it ain't there. Look, it would seem you are of the opinion that it is just a glitch that IMD has been removed. Perfectly valid opinion, however so is the opinion of others in this thread that the UN intentionally dropped this event from their calendar. Without proof either way, opinions is all they are. My thought would be if you are going to co…	/r/MensRights	22/03/21 06:22 AM
3	The UN removes the International Men's Day Again, nothing other than opinion here. Without proof, that is all it is or ever will be.	/r/MensRights	21/03/21 10:00 PM
2	The UN removes the International Men's Day Yeah, but again where do you get the idea that they'd actually make an announcement or any sort of communication about this? You are the one trying to push the glitch theory, the onus is on you to prove this. You've presented nothing other than a possibility at this stage. At no point have I ruled it out as a glitch, just pointed out the fact it has been removed from their calendar. Nor have I tried to make a mountain out of it. Again trying to pin labels that just aren't there.	/r/MensRights	21/03/21 09:51 PM
5	The UN removes the International Men's Day It's being toilet day for a long while AFAIK. Another great invention by a man contributing to society.	/r/MensRights	21/03/21 08:58 PM
3	The UN removes the International Men's Day Absolutely nobody, apart from yourself, if referring to this as any sort of BS, fear mongering or apocalyptic rhetoric. Disappointed, sure, but not any of these labels you're trying to pin. Nobody is saying the UN has cancelled IMD outright, just that they have removed it from their calendar. There is no evidence you or anyone has provided to lend weight to this removal being any sort of glitch. Perhaps it's a language barrier, I do not believe you to have the same interpretation of what this th…	/r/MensRights	21/03/21 08:56 PM
6	The UN removes the International Men's Day If you are taking the time to comment here, also consider taking the time to fill out the contact form on the UN site asking why IMD is absent from their calendar.	/r/MensRights	21/03/21 07:34 PM
7	The UN removes the International Men's Day IMD has been removed from the UN calendar. Not sure why you equate pointing this fact out as BS or fear mongering. Less concerned as to the other sites as they don't put themselves out to the world as being humanitarian. There might be a genuine reason for it not appearing, there also might not be. Saying there has been no announcement about removing it implies that is an established process for ceasing recognition of an event on a given date. Genuine question, can you point to any examples of t…	/r/MensRights	21/03/21 07:20 PM
4	Indian member of parliament asks for celebration of men's day in the parliament, get's laughed at by other female MPs and gets massively trolled on twitter Agree. Putting forward the case for more visibility of IMD on IWD was a poor choice. Women need and deserve their day, just as we do.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	09/03/21 11:41 PM
10	A report from Australia shows about 30% of people think “Men and boys are increasingly excluded from measures to improve gender equality” My thoughts too. 30% is not a good number given how stark some of the numbers are.	/r/MensRights	03/03/21 10:37 AM
9	Im interested to learn what brought you to a MRA stance, what was your ideological journey? I don't so much hold MRA views, rather view myself as being egalitarian. Fairness, personal responsibility and equality of opportunity I view as being essential for civil society. My support for MRA only goes so far as there are negative aspects of Western culture that exclusively or disproportionately impact men. These need to be addressed if we are to strive for an egalitarian society. I am increasingly viewing myself, however, as being anti feminist. Like many, I grew up of the understanding …	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	11/01/21 10:38 PM
33	No issue with feminism fighting for these stupid things, and no reason for it to look at mens issue.... the problem however, is the fake narrative they have created "WoMeNZ OpPreSSEd" and also redefining gender equality to mean women's issues, instead, of you know, gender equality. Great data, albeit depressing stats. The one that really hit me was the rate of suicide among those aged between 15-19. We are losing the battle early. Where are the resources to help teenage boys process the emotional stress of being valued as a child to be dispensable as man?	/r/MensRights	28/12/20 11:48 PM
27	Google's homepage offers resources for "victims and survivors of domestic and sexual abuse". If you guessed that actually just means women, you win... It depends if you see the moral plight and deep societal issues of domestic violence causing enormous damage to relationships for ALL victims as a money making opportunity or a problem that needs to be solved. To my mind, only true pieces of shit knowingly seek to profit from the misery of others. This is not a once off for Google, they have not once acknowledged IMD with one of their doodles as they have done for IWD since 2005. The promotion of women being oppressed and the victim at the exclu…	/r/MensRights	09/12/20 08:48 AM
-3	His ex accused him of attacking her and that could have meant life in prison for him. When a selfie proved she lied, all she got was probation. Which is why I said each to their own. Friends and siblings are usually extremely important and fruitful relationships, they do not afford the closeness of building a closely bound life together or having and raising your own children. Relationships with friends and family are not lesser because of this, just different. If you don't value that sort of thing, single life is absolutely a good choice. Certainly has some significant advantages if you are one to really value your own space. Just like…	/r/MensRights	26/11/20 09:02 PM
7	His ex accused him of attacking her and that could have meant life in prison for him. When a selfie proved she lied, all she got was probation. Shared life experience for one. Each to their own, but MGTOW is the eqivilent if putting your head in the sand if your intent is to avoid false incrimination. Case in point, the guy in this article was not in a relationship with the accuser. Simply being known by these manipulate sociopaths is sufficient with today's laws and societal gender bias for men to have their life devestated (and the lives of those that care about them). Having said that, there is nothing wrong with choosing the single …	/r/MensRights	26/11/20 08:12 PM

258	Google Google have actually created a doodle for IWD since 2005, as they should. It is important to celebrate the contributions and listen to the array of women's issues from around the globe. It is a complete failing of Google and so many others not to acknowledge the natural counterpart to IWD, that being IMD.	/r/MensRights	21/11/20 01:49 PM
1	My family's response to the Men's Day infographic. How would you guys have responded to them? The best way to combat this is to be well educated on the nuances of these stats and we'll read on the studies commonly referenced (especially those used to dismiss/deminish mens issues, such as pay gap). This is not to Lord it over or humiliate people with these sort of views, rather calmly point out examples of their double standards. First important to understand if they even value or desire actual equality. Perhaps discuss their interpretation of their interpretation of equality (equality of…	/r/MensRights	20/11/20 10:09 PM

8	New York Times uses Nazi language to describe men. This is why we have r/menkampf replacing the word 'men' with 'Jews' in feminist posts I have no love for the victim mentality of SJW's, but this sort of false crap is really doing no favours for men's rights. Imagine how many Redditors have seen this and have gone on with their day thinking this is true. Posts like this should require a source in the comments or be deleted.	/r/MensRights	31/10/20 09:28 PM
34	Men are not trusted with children while women are considered automatically to be good carers. Man that has to be tough. Like being a parent isn't hard enough already without having to cope with the lose of your partner then to have to deal with that bullshit stigma on topl. I hope there are support groups in your area for you.	/r/MensRights	22/08/20 09:19 PM
10	Clementine Ford is awful To think that this awful person has been invited to sit on ABC's Q&A along with other radical feminists multiple times, yet inviting Jordan Peterson was somehow the controversial choice. Australia's national broadcaster whose charter requires them to be unbiased is anything but.	/r/MensRights	23/05/20 11:12 PM
11	Sad but true. Society doesn't REALLY want men to be "vulnerable." I don't disagree that this happens, however I think men need to stop seeking approval or permission to speak of such things and support each other. We need to do it for our health. Harder to do in practice for sure, but it has got to be amongst the next steps taken.	/r/MensRights	19/04/20 08:12 AM

1	This is so ridiculous, tackling the pay gap by paying a certain sex less? Well done Hasbro. My nieces asked for board games for Christmas. When I saw this on the shelf, not only did I not buy it, I didn't buy any other Monopoly or Hasbro product. No way am I going to to be purchasing any product trying to pass on some form of moral guidance to my family that imbeds discrimination to its rules. It is targeted at 8 year olds, the only message it is going to instill is that girls should get more than boys (or boys simply won't play). It is divisive and does not tell the …	/r/MensRights	23/12/19 08:19 PM

1	'Let's burn stuff': Q&A panellists debate violence and shattering the status quo \| Just a bunch of feminists calling for violence against men on national television. But remember guys: feminists don't hate men, honest... Sorry, should've specified I was referring to Australian statistics. From memory our figures are like 1 in 6 women and 1 in 16 men have experienced physical and/or sexual violence since turning 15. Emotional abuse is much closer with 1 in 4 women vs 1 in 6 men, however nowhere do I remember reading if the abusers were of the opposite sex or not. I hate statistics anyway as all to often the data is massaged or viewed through a lens to suite the narrative of the presenter. Bottom line is men have …	/r/MensRights	05/11/19 01:18 PM

Can barely stand to watch it most of the time now. Eltahawy should not have been included on the panel, her views are simply too off kilter. When Q&A had their special on domestic violence they had Clementine Ford on. Both her and Eltahawy have called directly for violence, even murder of men.

1	unpopular opinion: men should have more of a say when having a child. Nice simple summary, however plz fix up the backward scenario numbering if you get a chance OP. I agree that men should be able to forego all rights to a pregnancy they don't want via means of a legal abortion. However this needs to come with some caveats such as payment of abortion costs and associated expenses (pending fetus DNA verification if needed) should the mother decide to terminate the pregnancy as a result. This avenue would also need to impose pretty serve penalties should the father…	/r/MensRights	11/10/19 11:35 PM

Kinda on topic, my wife told me she had gender awareness training today at work. I was waiting for the usual feminist slant on this, however was pleasantly surprised that the covered the topic of primary carers leave.

Last year one of my male co-workers took 6 months off without pay to care for his first child. Where I live, not an eyebrow would be raised if a female did this, it would be considered par for the course. A lot of people at work trashed talked this guy for doing it.
