All voting is an act of violence, because it's an attempt to point the government, a violent institution, in some direction. Cast your vote as an act of self defense, to try to point that violence away from as many people as possible. What that means specifically will depend on your specific philosophy.

The Church Visible? No, each of the denominations have their own problems, their own corruptions, their own political machinations. The Church Invisible? By definition different, because it's the set of Christians who have truly come to walk in the way of the Lord, and his way is peaceful, loving, and true. The thing is, the LGBT movement and other gnostic heresies are one type of faction that, within the Church Visible, turn it more toward corruption, and away from the Church Invisible.

Men and women are not the exact same thing. This means equality is a foolish goal. Fair treatment, on the other hand, is possible. That means rights and responsibilities go hand in hand, and respect is earned through responsible exercise of rights. Now, that means that Mr. Waters here is still off base. Men aren't expendable, but we are more easily replaceable when it comes to continuing the species. Men are inherently more likely and able to act in defense of their society, and so society shoul…

I'm actually combining two stories.

Even further, Rousseau has a lot to answer for. The mindset itself, which they just helped to formalize, is as old as humanity. Hatred of God for allowing an existence which the man sees as flawed. Cain and Abel is the 3rd story in the Bible for a reason. Just as the Scottish Enlightenment formalized Christian morality into social theories of Liberalism (as it was then called), the Franco-German Enlightenment formalized Satanism into social theories of Progressivism.

Anything talking about raising critical consciousness is post-Marxist revolutionary communism. It's structurally designed to lure people into blaming all of their problems on the culture, projecting the issues they perceive in the culture onto an "oppressor" category (straight, white, men who recognize the reality that they are men, in most cases), and then trying to overthrow that culture through rage-fueled protests that become riots, and through subverting institutions in order to spread crit…

Trans men aren't men. They are biological females who want to be treated similarly to men in some contexts. Pretending otherwise is ignoring reality, and you don't get to a better society by ignoring reality. Those desires should be approached the same way as anyone else's desires: if people are amenable to accommodating, they should be free to, but never forced to. By the way: very few trans people pass. Most are easy to recognize as being the sex they were born with. The few that do are the ex…

Teenage boys need to be in areas where they are not around anyone their instincts identify as a girl. They need this in order to develop a proper understanding of how to interact in hierarchies of competence, in a place where no one is competing for the attention of a girl. This is closely related to the old sailor's notion that a woman is bad luck on a ship. Also that bot is a hilarious queer-theory spouting nincompoop.

Trans men are female. Trans women are male. These are realities that need to be accounted for in any system. The thing people are getting called TERFs for saying is: women are in need of spaces where they won't encounter males. I'd add onto that, men are in need of spaces where they won't encounter females. It sucks for people with gender dysphoria that society isn't designed to cater to their desires, but it straight up shouldn't be. That mental illness is extremely rare, and like any other exc…

I disagree with that. Sex matters in the long run. A society can recover from losing half of its men, with temporary polygamy. Takes one generation and, except for needing a bit more awareness to avoid inbreeding, you're back to your old population. Lose half the women, and it'll be centuries before your population recovers (China's about to give us a nice preview). On a biological level, men are less indisposable than women.

I watched the trial. She was railroaded. The judge was absolutely shocked, and she only got convicted under a clear misreading of the law. She made an honest mistake, which is not rightfully a crime. I am not surprised at the light sentence, it's probably as light as the judge could get away with.

If you don't believe in this, you are supporting a rapist. That is not correct. I don't believe that the law should treat things that are different as if they were the same. That is not support for female rapists, it's a recognition that the consequences of their horrific crime are less damaging than those of the crime on the other side of the coin. If we accept your 'men and women are different' argument then a lot of feminist issues fall apart as well. Yes. This would be a good thing.

I'd rather we not see gender equality shoved down the throats of toddlers, and not see male rape victims harassed for child support. Better that than to pretend that a woman who gets pregnant as a result of rape goes through more physical trauma than a man who impregnates a woman who rapes him. You're right that woman-on-man rape is treated with derision, and you're right that it's a problem. I just don't want to use gender equality is a metric, because men are women are different things.
/r/MensRights04/12/21 02:51 PM

I mean that, because the physical burden of pregnancy falls on the woman, a man raping a woman is a more monstrous crime than a woman raping a man (which is still a monstrous crime).

This isn't exactly in line with the zeitgeist of the sub, but I'm here for equal treatment under the law, with exception s only for the things that derive from biological difference (a man raping a woman and causing her to become pregnant is a worse crime than a woman raping a man and becoming pregnant, for example), and in all other arenas of life, mutual respect between the sexes, instead of the jealous and contemptuous attitude which women are currently culturally encouraged to hold, and the …

In specific contexts, with specific value sets, it's true. That's why individualism is necessary, because no person is disposable to himself. If you're talking about a state and a draft, though, you're out of the realm of individualism.

Conscription should not exist. Expanding it is making the problem worse. And again, I was responding to a specific point made. I do know there are non-combat roles. You don't put conscripts in logistics; it takes substantial training if you don't want supply lines falling apart.

The biological reality of pregnancy is that the man is involved physically for a few seconds, the woman for 9 months. Historically, polygamy has been a response to high-casualty wars. I also object to people having the ability to send others to their deaths via a vote. The solution isn't to make more people eligible to be sent to their deaths, it's to remove that ability. Woman are not equal to men. They're fools to ask for equality, and we're fools to accept that framing.

they're there to take a bullet for the actual soldiers That's not a statement that there are non-combat military roles. And what I'm talking about is, if we're in the mindset of a state trying to preserve its population, a woman dying in her prime is a larger net loss to long-term population than a man. That's just the result of biology.

Seems like a fundamentally bad policy to put the half of the population capable of bearing children in the position of bullet sponge. It's not a pleasant thought, but a country losing half its male population can recover quickly, while a country losing half its female population is almost certainly doomed.

Yep, that kind of situation is absolute horseshit. Completely violates the idea of bodily autonomy.

There is one significant difference between male-on-female and female-on-male rape. In the latter case, it's the perpretrator who carries the resulting baby. That might have some impact on the appropriate level of restitution as part of the punishment for the crime. The retribution and rehabilitation aspects of criminal punishment shouldn't be affected by it.

You're disagreement is based on a definition which was not sensible in the context. As I was talking about mother's and father's day, which are technically observances, it was very obvious that I was discussing holiday in that sense, not in the bank holiday sense.

JP talks on a statistical level. You can find countless instances of him mentioning that these aren't universally true of each individual, but they are the broad trend.

Okay, so now, the way to control the incredibly valuable public goods is to gain a high position in government. Great. Now, you will get corrupt people in government, increasing over time, because climbing the government structure has monetary value (manipulating public goods for private advantage).

The natural long-term outcome of any human society is a takeover by the rich. That's why it's happened hundred of times in human history, most of those times being before capitalism was formulated.

Not a legal expert, but I'm going to answer anyway because this is the internet. The reason we have Innocent until Proven Guilty as a legal principle is because human beings aren't naturally like that. We hear an accusation from someone we want to trust (such as an attractive woman), and we believe it by default, and hate the accused by default. We put the legal principle in place to protect ourselves from false accusations.

A lot of that is a result of the bans on drugs. It makes drug running a very profitable, but risky endeavor, and ends with a lot of poor people in jail (especially poor black people). That leads to generations growing up without fathers, and the kids need to find a father figure somewhere; gangs offer that and the cycle continues. Lifting the drug bans won't solve the problem overnight, but it will remove a major factor that perpetuates it.

It's difficult to separate cause and effect. Lawyers will advise against a client trying something in court that they don't think will succeed.

Proven malicious accusations being punished is not sharia. Sharia is "you were raped, so you're no longer pure." Only similarity is both ending in a woman being punished.

The people I've known who've made fun of gamers etc. are nowhere near games (or money) nowadays, except for playing shit like Angry Birds.

Hyper-agency, in my view, is the assumption that, because of gender, race, or social class, some groups of people are more able to affect a situation than others. That doesn't apply here. I am saying that police officers accept a responsibility to keep the peace and deescalate situations as part of taking their job, and that they failed in this.

Police officers are given an extraordinary amount of power by the law. To protect others from that, they need to be held to a standard of near perfection.

To be pedantic, if X is 25% larger than Y, that means Y is 20% less than X. But yeah, female privilege isn't a thing, men had the privilege of paying more, and now they're taking away the rights of women to pay less. Or something.

In my opinion, Colorado has the best standards in the US. A 15 year old can legally have sex with a 16 and a 17 year old, a 16 yo can have sex with people up to 20, 17 is the AOC. Sets definite standards, while being flexible to account for age differences that happen naturally. Also, it loosely follows the "creepy rule of dating age" : age /2 +7 = minimum age of partner.

To add to OP's response: growing facial hair is something that has a stigma attached these days, especially for early 20s guys. The main reason is that, before your hair is really filled in, it's probably going to look terrible, especially in the first few weeks. It's a good icing on the cake, being able to find our how your facial hair looks after a while of growing it out.

Yeah, it's something I've caught myself doing my whole life. "Man, that thing is really crappy in my opinion. They should make it illegal!"

Yep, and when someone drugs you against your will, they're to blame. If the same person has sex with you, rape. If a different person, with no knowledge that you're unwillingly intoxicated has sex with you, they are not a rapist. They're ill-informed, and probably unobservant, but not criminal.

Be careful with "For All" statements. They're easily disproven, and almost always wrong. If someone shows you one example of a mainstream feminist who has none of these traits, you're wrong. Instead, say that you have yet to see someone like that. It welcomes the possibility of disproval, which keeps you logical and non-dogmatic.

I agree. I am horrified by the woman's dishonesty, but when a man raises a child as his own, if he's worthy of being a father, I think it will become a good situation for the two of them to stay together. Emotionally, I think I would still feel like a father, and would still treat the boy as a son.

I love how they say "Oh, but patriarchy doesn't blame men. It just blames powerful men." There used to be a decent argument behind that, like men in power wanting men keeping their old gender roles. But it's just an absurd dismissal at this point. Patriarchy is claimed whenever either men or women are disadvantaged, and it's become synonymous with female oppression and male empowerment. They could have used it for the OP, if they hadn't already used it to attack every man in the world.

This is a no-win situation. If it only targeted things like drunk driving, etc., feminists (not all but some) would stay saying that the police were ignoring one of the biggest problems with clubbing, date rape. Since they targeted specific problems that effect women more often than men (according to certain statistics), it's victim blaming. It seems similar to the stereotype of a woman getting mad because her man didn't listen, but then getting mad because he tried to help.

Quite simple, really. With every rule passed, you also state clearly the rule's purpose. In the group's basic documents e.g. the constitution, you declare that obvious violations of the stated purpose of the rule, even where technically within the letter of the law, shall be treated as violations. This relies on judicial discretion, of course. You also need to guard against corruption.
