1	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Ugh, believe what you want to believe. I don’t appreciate being told what my own intentions were or what my goals were. If you think being challenged on your poor logic means that I think I’m morally superior, it sounds like you can’t handle being challenged at all - hence this dysfunctional way of thinking. I never heard of the men’s rights movement before this and when I saw so many oddly sexist comments, I thought maybe I’m missing something bc there is no way so many people could be so willi…	/r/MensRights	16/05/25 12:25 PM
1	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Well, that’s your opinion and you have a right to it, but I’m not saying anything that historians and experts don’t confirm. You don’t have to agree with jt, but it doesn’t make it any less true.	/r/MensRights	15/05/25 08:54 PM
0	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Oh, I never felt criticized by you comment personally. Sorry if I came off defensive, not trying to. I think I’m just busy at the moment and not paying as much attention to my tone. I apologize. I haven’t had a chance to read your full comment, just saw the notification and wanted to make that clear. Thank you for the discussion! ETA: I read the full comment. I tend to agree to some degree with your stance up until the line, particularly around feminism, even though I consider myself one. I want…	/r/MensRights	15/05/25 07:59 PM
-2	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls I think you have a major blind spot in your thinking that is keeping you from seeing things in a holistic and logical way. I agree, I am ‘solving’ a problem that shouldn’t have existed in the first place. You are also right that he should have had male mentors and peer groups to help guide him. Ideally, boys would HAVE THEIR FATHERS. But, your message seems to be that women are solely to blame for this and men bare no responsibility for their role in the problem. I don’t hear an ounce of account…	/r/MensRights	15/05/25 05:51 PM
0	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls I’ve been on WIC as a former low income pregnant woman. Women who are pregnant or breastfeed need way more calories per day to grow healthy babies. This program does not benefit the mothers, it’s meant to benefit the children.	/r/MensRights	15/05/25 04:07 AM
-2	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls I’ve been on it. WIC is very temporary and it’s meant to fill the gap in nutrition that low income pregnant women experience due to the added costs of eating for two. It’s meant to benefit unborn children, not woman.	/r/MensRights	15/05/25 04:04 AM
0	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls I haven’t had a chance to read all of that but will try when I get a chance. But I skimmed through and noticed you said that it wasn’t a great system for husband’s either. Just wanted to point out that, yeah, that’s the main point I’ve been trying to make. Power imbalance ends up hurting everyone, not just the immediate victim. Also, regarding rape, I thinking being penetrated is a much more violent and painful form of rape than being forced to penetrate another. And men can’t end up pregnant an…	/r/MensRights	15/05/25 03:46 AM
1	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Since you asked, yes, I think raising a son to have a sense of identify outside of his relationship to women is one small way I’ve worked to help the issue. You can also view my comment history and see I don’t side with anyone just because of their gender. I believe, as all feminists should, that equality for woman is equality for men. Everyone wins when we are all free to make our own choices. My question to you now is, have you done anything to resolve the issues that women have in society? I …	/r/MensRights	15/05/25 03:38 AM
-4	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Oh c’mon. “Now women know how men feel when they are raped” really? Statistically, men are much more likely to be aggressors than women. In the rare occasion a man is raped by a woman, it’s unlikely they would also fear for their lives or if pregnancy the way women do when assaulted by a man. So, don’t worry, women can easily relate. The Middle East is the worst example you could give to prove your point… they’ve been fighting for centuries. They happened to have had a bout of peace here and the…	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 11:47 PM
-5	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls No, I’m referencing the tons of testimonies of women being denied justice for sexual assault and discrimination. The ratio between how often it happens vs how often it’s convicted is astoundingly low, it’s sad. I only know a handful of women who have NOT been sexually assaulted in some form or another. And in the grand scheme of things, 100 years ago is not that long ago. It takes generations to change a culture. Black people are still fighting for many of the privileges we have today even thoug…	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 10:36 PM
-9	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls I appreciate you appreciating me opening up, lol. I think I’ve heard of that book, but, if you are suggesting the world favors women, I’m not sure I will ever agree with that. Don’t get me wrong. I see plenty of injustices, if you will, toward men and boys that I feel are valid. For example, I feel boys are often forgotten victims of sexual abuse. And sometimes societal expectations toward men are unfair. I also don’t like the depiction of fathers in the media of being dopey and irresponsible. I…	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 10:08 PM
-3	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls That’s for children, not women. Men can also apply for it on behalf of their children.	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 09:48 PM
0	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Don’t dad’s want their boy’s to succeed in school either? I mean, if my son’s father was present in my son’s life or at least consistently paid child support, I’d have more support to hire tutors or dedicate more time to helping him myself….	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 09:31 PM
-1	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls That’s awful. I never understood this obsession with sports. Don’t get me wrong, they can be very good and healthy… but not to this level of financial and time commitment. That said, why are we only blaming mothers for this? Seems like a societal issue to me…	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 09:25 PM
-18	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Can you tell me what this societal support is that women get but men don’t? Bc that would have been nice to have when I was a struggling single teen mom putting myself through school and broke as hell… If anything, I remember having the opposite of support considering the name calling and discrimination I experienced…. Why is it hard to accept that both have hurdles and both are valid? Why all this weird competition?	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 09:20 PM
-10	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Lol, you are getting downvoted for asking a legitimate question? So, it’s not okay to ask for proof to backup your statements? What is going on with this generation?!?	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 09:14 PM
0	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Then why are you posing an inaccurate statement as a proof as to why women are in your words “not accountable or responsible?” And, what does your ideas about whether women should be able to serve have anything to do with this particular conversation? Nothing of what you said so far has convinced me that women are less “responsible or accountable.”	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 09:04 PM
1	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Let it go son. It’s obvious you don’t know where to go next so you are asking random, irrelevant questions that have nothing to do with the convo… I hope, for your sake, you heal from whatever is keeping you tied to such limiting beliefs. They will hurt you in the long run.	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 08:44 PM
1	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls I believe this is true in some sub-groups and cultures, but not everywhere. But, being Hispanic, I see more men being resistant to the idea, which is sad to me. My husband would be a MUCH better stay at home parent then me, but he’s prob never be happy doing that, although, I’m sure he would if he had to.	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 08:34 PM
1	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Neither, they demand equal rights. Dear lord, you are not the smartest cat are you?	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 08:31 PM
1	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Lmao, you are either very young or you are very bad at this, lol. I never mentioned women serving in the military. YOU mentioned that women are not accountable or responsible bc they aren’t trying to fight the military, which I pointed out is factually inaccurate. So, which is it buddy? Are they irresponsible for trying to join the military or for not trying to join the military? Make up your mind, lol. 😂 I’m guessing it’s both, lol… no woman can win with you bc you clearly don’t care about trut…	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 08:23 PM
1	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Right, and I’m directly disagreeing with you… men and women are equal in their desire for security and comfort. Assuming your claim that there are more male homeless people than female is true (I have not verified it) does not mean it’s bc women desire more security. It could be for any other number of reasons. As mentioned above, testosterone does make men more risk prone. If you gamble too much or drink your life away, yeah, you can end up homeless. That doesn’t mean that men care less about c…	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 07:53 PM
0	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Hmmm… You are ignoring evidence that contradicts what you want to believe about women… that’s the definition of cherry picking. Pointing out inconsistencies in your arguments is not nit picking. Either logic is not your strong suit or you have serious cognitive dissonance issues…. I’m here for the same reasons you are. This came up on my feed, I was interested in the content as a mother of a young man who has had problems in school, I wanted to hear people’s thoughts. I saw yours and I thought I…	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 07:17 PM
0	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls I would also like to point out that women did fight for the right to be soldiers if they wanted to.	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 06:51 PM
1	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Oh no, I agree that testosterone tend to make men more risk prone for sure. But, I think it’s a stretch to say we demand a higher standard of living because of that. I would say men and women are equal in their desire for comfort and safety. Don’t forget, men not only tend to make more money than women on average, but they also tend to be in more positions of power. I doubt they are saving all that money and power and living in a box, lol.	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 06:39 PM
0	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls I think you are (maybe willingly) confused. You yourself said that acknowledging differences isn’t in and of itself, sexist. Which I agreed. We may be equal in every respect, but it doesn’t mean we are the same - we have a different set of instincts that can play out very differently from each other. I don’t see very many men wanting to grow up to be stay at home dads. Does it mean that men are incapable of seeking equal responsibility and accountability as women? No. It means they tend to serve…	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 06:23 PM
0	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Maybe you don’t know very many single women (or men for that matter)? I know a ton of women who decided to be life long hippies or starving artists. And I know so many men who spend way too much. I thought that’s why in the states women tend to handle the finances? Not in my house though, my hubs is better with money.	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 06:15 PM
-1	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls I was totally with you up until the part where you said “it’s not in their nature”. That’s akin to saying “men can’t handle pain.” Not only is it untrue, but it’s an unhelpful, unfair stereotype. It doesn’t give individuals of that gender a chance to be anything different than what you expect them to be and makes it hard to see things from a different perspective. I can tell you for a fact every man I know handles pain waaaay better than me, and I’ve given child birth. It sounds to me like you a…	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 06:08 PM
-2	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Dang, that’s good for you. I wish I could say the same, but it’s hard with a family. That said, 20 hrs in fast food is still a lot of work imo. My son hated it.	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 05:59 PM
-2	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls But, that is not what comments like “you hit like a girl” do. You aren’t noticing a difference, you are making a general statement about an entire gender’s capacity. I would agree that saying men in general have more muscle mass is not sexist. That is a statement based on fact. But saying men are more powerful than women is a subjective statement that is not necessarily true. It implies one gender is more superior, hence I consider it sexist. I believe the issues we are having with men being afr…	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 05:55 PM
-3	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls Oh, gotcha. Maybe. Although, I would think that lower income people tend to work harder unfortunately.	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 05:38 PM
2	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls I totally agree with this. Although, I think that could benefit girls just as much as boys tbh. I don’t like that we keep minimizing boy’s capacity for intellectual activities/thinking.	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 05:37 PM
-11	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls This makes sense, but don’t you think this is a result of a very sexist way of thinking to begin with? Comments like “you play like a girl” or whatever shouldn’t be an insult in the first place. Seems like it’s self induced shame.	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 05:34 PM
-15	This is why boys are continuously lagging behind in education than girls It’s been my experience dealing with men and boys that they need waaay more comforting and coddling than most women I know. Not all men of course, but mostly sexist/immature men for sure. In comparison, immature/sexist/ victim type women still tend to take more ownership than I see most men do.	/r/MensRights	14/05/25 05:31 PM
1	Low self esteem Look, I’m not a red pill person (I actually have no idea what this means, I was here to find info on a book), but I can tell you that that guy sounds gross. Like gross, gross. Any man that scores women, especially the one they are engaged to, thinks too little of women and thinks WAY too much of himself. Marriage is such hard work and takes so much trust it is critical that your partner value you. Otherwise, they won’t put in the work and you’ll never feel secure. Guys like him are abusive and i…	/r/RedPillWomen	13/05/24 12:26 PM
