| 1 | Thought I'd share this with everyone.Well yeah, comments will not change the facts. Collaborations with organizations that do exist might though. For example, contacting the many suicide awareness organizations out there and proposing new ways of approaching the topic might have more of an effect than just saying "nothing will happen because it never does" | /r/MensRights | 07/04/12 12:08 AM |
| 8 | Never, ever be a [White Knight] to women. A tribute to the nice guys.I would just like to point out that there are some girls who recognize a "nice guy" when they see one, and do something about it. There are also some girls who do not want a "white knight" to save them nor a bad boy to shame them. | /r/MensRights | 05/04/12 09:29 PM |
| 1 | Thought I'd share this with everyone.This is an issue that definitely should gain even more support. I dislike the phrasing of this though, as it is pretty self defeating "...but like most "mens issues" this one will probably be ignored." Well yeah, it might be - with that attitude. Stand up! Donate to help lines, volunteer with help lines, ask for more gender specified prevention plans, talk about it more... don't say "sucks nothing will happen" | /r/MensRights | 05/04/12 09:20 PM |
| 1 | Man UpI feel like he is not condemning any man who CHOSES to drink beer and have sex with women, he is condemning the advertising that tells men they are not "manly" UNLESS they do those things. This guy seems pro-man while still being pro-women... sorry that offends you so much. | /r/MensRights | 02/04/12 04:35 PM |
| 1 | That about sums up male privilege...How is advocating that the minority should have a voice advocating for their tyranny? | /r/MensRights | 01/04/12 10:23 PM |
| 1 | That about sums up male privilege...The idea of the majority then makes the minority seem inferior. It should just be another version of "pink" instead of flesh tone, which is labelled in a way which excludes many people. | /r/MensRights | 01/04/12 10:06 PM |
| 1 | That about sums up male privilege...I didn't say that by being a man you automatically have a privilege, though in the past I would argue that that could be true. Having privilege is NOT blaming someone for it. It is recognizing, "Hey I might not have to fight as hard, for this job or for this loan, as that guy or girl based on my looks, gender, age, ability, race, or sexual preference." By recognizing these things we can recognize the situations where it is wrong and speak up about it. | /r/MensRights | 01/04/12 05:25 PM |
| 1 | That about sums up male privilege...Which country? U.S.A? True, majority white. But should the 38.9 MILLION people of African decent (according to the 2010 census) not be included when you think of America just because they are not the European majority? You just proved the point that I was trying to make. | /r/MensRights | 01/04/12 05:21 PM |
| 1 | That about sums up male privilege...I agree. I was pointing out the fact that a VERY feminist article still pointed out that men have disadvantages and privilege is not reserved only for white men. I agree with a lot of your list but disagree with "Most likely won't be raped when going to prison" as I believe that is untrue from the documentaries I have watched + stories I have read. | /r/MensRights | 31/03/12 07:31 AM |
| 4 | That about sums up male privilege...That is unfortunate that you had that experience in college, as I had quite the opposite (hence my asking). Well I searched up "feminism and privilege" and the first link that came up was this: http://www.amptoons.com/blog/the-male-privilege-checklist/ This is another one of those checklists, and it is from a very feminist source. While you may disagree with some things on the checklist I would just like to point out this section: "Pointing out that men are privileged in no way denies that bad t… | /r/MensRights | 31/03/12 01:47 AM |
| 2 | Do you have to be an anti-feminist to be a MRA?I will try that then. | /r/MensRights | 31/03/12 01:41 AM |
| 5 | Do you have to be an anti-feminist to be a MRA?Well great then. Maybe all the young feminists are actually egalitarian then and we will have a bunch more equality seeking individuals out there... not a problem in my eyes. | /r/MensRights | 30/03/12 11:54 PM |
| 3 | That about sums up male privilege...Can you find or think of any examples of that actually happening? | /r/MensRights | 30/03/12 11:53 PM |
| 5 | Do you have to be an anti-feminist to be a MRA?"If more men used the feminist platform as means to bring light to their own inequalities, I think feminists would stand behind you." I absolutely agree. I think the new "wave" of feminism, if you will, is way less on the radically for-women-only side of things and much more equality based. | /r/MensRights | 30/03/12 11:49 PM |
| 12 | That about sums up male privilege..."Postmodern thought brought with it a rejection of the absolute. It was a movement towards a relative and more fluid understanding of reality, one that changed across cultures, traditions, and races. The postmodern mind rejected the certainty of an unchanging, foundational truth..." Postmodernism isn't a theory that blames but rather a theory that says "lets not accept the dominant discourses we have constructed". Woman have privilege too and it absolutely recognizes that... definitely not an an… | /r/MensRights | 30/03/12 11:42 PM |
| -5 | That about sums up male privilege...http://www.adbusters.org/magazine/88 | /r/MensRights | 30/03/12 11:37 PM |
| 11 | That about sums up male privilege...It is a list of privilege... just like you looked up. It is not "charges laid against you" which is something I think is commonly misinterpreted. Postmodernism + poststructuralism help point out how deeply imbedded certain privileges are in our western society. Things like a light pinkish crayon being "flesh tone" rather than a brown one being called the same thing. Pointing out privilege is not an attack on people who are privilege, it just aims to educate people to recognize what other people … | /r/MensRights | 30/03/12 11:36 PM |
| 3 | Or...you could try being honest. Just a thought, Cosmo.Man, Cosmo is the absolute worst. It goes from "Control him" to "Tips for pleasing him and putting him first" in a couple of pages. Its like "hey ladies, you want to feel even slightly powerful after we knock down your ego with all of these models and beauty products? WELL, you can trick you man into giving you shit since you obviously are not capable of earning your things in life on your own, AND we will give you tips for keeping him once he catches on" Great lessons. Really. | /r/MensRights | 28/03/12 11:52 PM |
| 2 | 4chan rebels against women being the gatekeepers of sexI agree. I think that viewing sex as something mutually "given" or enjoyed helps even out the negative gender perceptions on both sides. It becomes: woman can enjoy sex, men don't always want it rather than woman have sex as a favour and men stop at nothing to get it. | /r/MensRights | 28/03/12 02:47 AM |
| 1 | Frat boys walk 1 mile in high heels for rape awarenessWell at least you're starting it - good job! | /r/MensRights | 27/03/12 08:04 PM |
| 1 | Feminism Won’t Make a Victim Out of MeWell I may be painfully idealist, so you are right. I can't do much. I can believe what I believe and do whatever I possibly can to make the world around me better in the minor ways that I do. If I was a part of those organizations, you would have a point. Just because someone is, say, Baptist doesn't make them part of the Westboro Baptist church. You are right, feminism is a very broad paintbrush itself. I simply agree with the equality that the parts I see as positive. I will drop the label if… | /r/MensRights | 27/03/12 08:03 PM |
| 1 | Frat boys walk 1 mile in high heels for rape awarenessAnd I mean a real event... not just a protest of concerned + affected citizens. | /r/MensRights | 24/03/12 04:23 AM |
| 1 | Frat boys walk 1 mile in high heels for rape awarenessI agree. That is the problem that I did have with this event. I have seen other promotional campaigns that are less gender-as-perpatrator specified. The one that I attended had all types of literature, but by the nature of the event (title + activity) it did seem very one sided. Perhaps this event would be alright if paired with a "Walk a mile in his shoes" simultaneous event to show the very close statistics? | /r/MensRights | 24/03/12 04:22 AM |
| 1 | Frat boys walk 1 mile in high heels for rape awarenessAh touche. I was thinking of it in the context of an optional "anyone can support this cause" event like the one in my city is - my bad. That is quite silly then. Though, it somewhat sounds like they came up with the concept? Or that they have choice in what 'awareness causes' they support? Just a thought. | /r/MensRights | 24/03/12 03:59 AM |
| 1 | Frat boys walk 1 mile in high heels for rape awarenessWell it is willing... | /r/MensRights | 24/03/12 03:50 AM |
| 1 | Frat boys walk 1 mile in high heels for rape awarenessThere is a lot of prostate cancer awareness popping up in my community, any around you guys? | /r/MensRights | 24/03/12 03:48 AM |
| 5 | Frat boys walk 1 mile in high heels for rape awarenessWe had the same event in my city "Walk a mile in her shoes". It was a pretty good community gathering type deal and got a lot of people talking about domestic violence in general. I was also impressed with a counter-protest of "Walk a mile in his shoes" that happened on the same block. Their group was quite small, but there were men holding banners and woman with very large mens boots walking around. Their banners had things about loosing custody battles to abusive wives, wrong accusations, etc.… | /r/MensRights | 24/03/12 03:46 AM |
| 1 | Feminism Won’t Make a Victim Out of MeWell I support both. Sure, I haven't GONE there physically and created any anti-genital mutilation programs. However I would highly consider joining one of those causes as a volunteering trip. I will admit - I live in Canada, not Sudan. That doesn't mean I can have values that support the lives of people around the world. I also work with the inner city population in my own country/city. I recognize the hundreds of missing aboriginal street workers who have had no justice served to them. I recog… | /r/MensRights | 24/03/12 03:37 AM |
| 0 | Feminism Won’t Make a Victim Out of MeI agree with feminism because there are many more countries in the world where woman are oppressed over men than visa versa. So I absolutely support mens rights but I still believe on a global scale there is often an imbalance. I could call it "woman's rights" but for me that would mean the same thing. I see men's rights as the male version of feminism... if I am wrong on this than I am just misinterpreting the hundreds of posts in this subreddit which I feel victimizes men. From what I see it c… | /r/MensRights | 23/03/12 02:10 AM |
| 1 | This subreddit needs to shake off its anti-women reputation for the sake of these issues being taken seriously.http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/CTVNewsAt11/20030713/stastcan_violenceagainstmen_20030713/ Well here is a news report (though it is a bit old) discussing the issue. This is the national news station of Canada, so this story was likely nationally broadcast. If I were in the Woman studies program like many of my friends are in University, I would give you better citations from actual courses being taught. http://www.xtra.ca/public/National/Winnipeg_agencies_say_the_need_for_a_mens_shelter_is_critical-70… | /r/MensRights | 22/03/12 06:52 PM |
| 3 | Feminism Won’t Make a Victim Out of MeI don't believe that all woman who believe in feminism feel like victims. I am a woman (downvote me to hell... whatever) and I consider myself a feminist. However, I DO NOT believe that I am oppressed because I am woman. In my particular life I have not felt disadvantaged because of my gender except perhaps minorly from my parents traditionalist values (no biggie though). I DO believe that there are many woman who are in fact victimized, as well as many men who are victimized. When I have belief… | /r/MensRights | 22/03/12 09:38 AM |
| 1 | This subreddit needs to shake off its anti-women reputation for the sake of these issues being taken seriously.It does actually. Programs like these absolutely acknowledge that ANYONE can offend, not just men. I am Canadian so I cannot comment on the VAWA piece. And it recognizes how far woman have come in many areas of life, while still aiming to teach equality for everyone on both local AND global scales. | /r/MensRights | 22/03/12 09:23 AM |
| 15 | This subreddit needs to shake off its anti-women reputation for the sake of these issues being taken seriously.Not all of the feminist movement is vocally anti-male, just a portion. Just like not all mens rights is anti-female, but a portion certainly is. | /r/MensRights | 04/03/12 09:42 PM |
| -4 | This subreddit needs to shake off its anti-women reputation for the sake of these issues being taken seriously.Woah woah woah, this "true feminism" is what is taught in many Woman Studies University programs, which I would say is a very bold and highly influential aspect of the feminist movement. | /r/MensRights | 04/03/12 09:41 PM |
| 4 | Teen girl's rape lie led to murder of teen boyI think that shit like this proves how much more education has to be done on the topics of assault and rape. Teaching actual victims to speak out, and teaching everyone else the consequences of false accusations. Situations like this are horrible in so many ways. They make actual victims cases seem illegitimate, and they make all woman look evil and out to get men. An education program that focuses on separating spite and revenge from serious issues such as rape would be so good. | /r/MensRights | 01/03/12 07:21 PM |
| 12 | Teen girl's rape lie led to murder of teen boyWow, you are just as bad as all those "crazy feminists" then... | /r/MensRights | 01/03/12 07:18 PM |
| 1 | Teenage girls more sexually active than boys, new research showsAs a former teenage girl who was interested in sex/relationships/boys in general, I would just like to point out that it is not extremely easy for all girls either. | /r/MensRights | 27/01/12 01:10 AM |
| 2 | Does this sound like emotional abuse to you?Mothers impact daughters, just like fathers impact sons. Being conscious of what the mother/father is like allows us to have some self-control over what we become. | /r/MensRights | 07/11/11 12:58 AM |
| 1 | Why isn't there a seperate word for the Batshit Crazy feminists yet?I think there is no separate term because within any community (feminists) there are thousands of different viewpoints and opinions - its too difficult to pick one or agree that there should be a difference. | /r/MensRights | 07/11/11 12:51 AM |
| 1 | Mate selection for dummiesI think one should ask themselves these questions before asking them of another person... | /r/MensRights | 07/11/11 12:35 AM |
