2	Never have sex in Sweden. AFAIK it's presumption of guilt and a leading question to ask the defendant and not the accused. Plus it places the burden of proof on the defendant and not on the accuser, it's extremely difficult if not impossible in most cases to prove that you didn't do something so instead we require that there's evidence that you did do something. You can't really prove you got a "Yes" after the fact but you might be able to prove that there was a "No" if there are signs of abuse, the complaint itself,…	/r/MensRights	20/06/20 03:47 AM
4	Some of the comments on a r/arethestraightsok post regarding a teenage male rape victim. Seriously this argument shows up so much and it drives me crazy. Who cares that some fully grown men have some fantasies regarding their teachers and in their naivete believe that being maliciously taken advantage of (at best) would in someway result in a pleasurable experience for them, it's pure delusion, that's the point of a fantasy. It completely ignores that rape isn't about the sexual act or the pleasure in-and-of itself, it's about power, control, dominance, etc. Women aren't raping …	/r/MensRights	23/05/20 09:24 AM
9	Women are complaining about prostituting themselves online due to coronavirus, and expect to live that life without criticism or consequences at their jobs, with their families, or when finding a husband. "But get that bag qween!!!" so should I have more voice than you if you haven’t served or pay less in taxes? You are twisting a crystal clear explanation into something else, it's a simple concept: if you want something done you need to be willing to do or contribute towards that thing, it's how society works. So, if you want to go to war then you should be expected to contribute to that effort to some effect, either by funding or participation. You shouldn't be able to stomp your feet like a child and demand a war with no…	/r/WhereAreAllTheGoodMen	17/04/20 06:07 PM
0	What is Toxic Masculinity and why is it hated amonst MRA? Well, it doesn't really fit the definition being given which is extremes to the point of being dangerous but that doesn't really matter. You have to delve a bit deeper into what masculinity actually is. Masculinity is basically a set of traits that are considered characteristic of men, anything that isn't considered characteristic of men therefor isn't masculine, just the way it works. So it's a malformed question to me, something not fitting the definition of a word isn't an example of toxic …	/r/MensRights	08/04/20 12:14 PM
6	What is Toxic Masculinity and why is it hated amonst MRA? So, my problem with the term is that if you accept "toxic masculinity" as "male behavior taken to extremes and becoming dangerous" then there is an extremely long list of things that need to be addressed first before we talk about men being emotional. Why isn't conscription at the forefront of this topic? It demands at an institutional level that you fight and die under the delusion that all men embody masculine traits like strength and courage, literally being forced to kill or be killed beca…	/r/MensRights	08/04/20 04:16 AM
2	What do you think about the debate on gender and violence? 1: Are men more violent than women? Seriously, this is such a big question. You need to define violence first and foremost. Violence is such a huge umbrella that can't be narrowed down and requires specificity, most people would cite things like Domestic Violence though as the "standard" for what constitutes male vs female violence statistics. We need to take a moment and clarify some things normally cited as well before we can even start to talk about Domestic Violence statistics. "1 in 4…	/r/MensRights	05/02/20 04:52 PM
1	If a man did something like this, it's considered sexual harassment... What? Nakedness isn't synonymous with being Sexual, can you take that as the sentence that it is without trying to warp it? Being is the verb here and changes the context of the word Sexual you can expose sexual body parts without being sexual because they have different meanings based on the context, basic English. "Being Sexual" is a 'doing' sentence which requires someone to be sexual at that moment, you need to be deriving pleasure through physical attraction or contact. "Sexual part" is…	/r/MensRights	11/12/19 09:38 AM
1	If a man did something like this, it's considered sexual harassment... 1: Only shows that the nipples activate erogenous regions of the brain in females. I don't see how this relates to nudity. What do you mean? We determine what parts of the body at minimum should be covered based on their erogenous properties, nobody will complain if you show feet, ears, nose, fingers with the rest determined by society. Sure, you can argue that Swazi culture didn't consider breasts to be naked but in the West the concepts are married together that erogenous body parts are nudi…	/r/MensRights	09/12/19 08:41 AM
1	If a man did something like this, it's considered sexual harassment... Although I (like EgalitarianWhistle) personally disagree with the idea that breasts are fundamentally sexual You can't disagree with female breasts giving the same neurological response to stimulation that genitals do, that makes them sexual inherently, maybe not in a sense that you agree with but that's the fact of the matter. The whole point of this conversation, going back to the OP, was nudity. By "breast fetishization" I meant treating breasts the same way they used to treat thighs. Fetis…	/r/MensRights	09/12/19 06:35 AM
1	If a man did something like this, it's considered sexual harassment... Yes, breasts weren't considered naked, neither are bare thighs; Yet they are both considered sexual and are fetishes in the culture. Now that Swazi culture is less isolated, they are picking up breast fetishization from outside of their local community. No, my quote was: However, with the change in the women dress, and the diversity of cultures in the country, showing breasts is now regarded as nakedness. Nakedness is NOT SYNONYMOUS with being Sexual, you really need a warped perspective t…	/r/MensRights	09/12/19 05:58 AM
1	If a man did something like this, it's considered sexual harassment... Seriously, if you are going to demand that someone educate themselves you shouldn't be standing there with your pants down making assertions from a single quote. Citing "Women and Theater for Development in Swaziland": When a young man waited by the river to court a young woman he loved, he used words of admiration for her thighs and her uncovered breasts. To the Swazi people showing of breasts was not regarded as nakedness in olden times because the dress code of women of all ages from ch…	/r/MensRights	08/12/19 12:37 AM
4	XPost from AskReddit -- "Instead of discussing toxic masculinity, What does positive masculinity look like?" Seriously, forcing thousands of men to embody masculine traits like self-sacrifice and risk of life has totally never happened at an institutional level and has definitely not been ignored in the whole "toxic masculinity" debate so far, like the Draft or defending complete strangers or checking noises in the middle of the night. Surely the societal expectation/cultural norms (i.e "toxic" part of "toxic masculinity") placed on men in this regard are being decried by feminists as much if not mor…	/r/MensRights	05/12/19 03:50 AM
12	PPD? extremely small minority that literally nobody else takes seriously. Where are the majority of feminists that aren't being straw-manned fighting the issue then? Surely if there are that many that care about men being raped there would be thousands of articles and sources to choose from. Surely in comment sections female pedophiles and rapists would be decried instead of making excuses like "well, men say that they wish it happened to them all the time" which is disgusting. Maybe you're the min…	/r/PussyPassDenied	22/08/19 04:10 AM
1	Dad is pissed at me because I said it's ok to hit women Every time this topic comes up men try to frame is at "feminists are hypocrites" issue. When I have never in all my life, online or IRL, spoken to a feminist who thinks women should be allowed to wail on a man and that the man shouldn't be allowed to defend himself and hit back. Well, it's not as black and white as "you should never hit back" you can even see it in this thread where people are debating if full-force retaliation is "extreme" meanwhile women that put shotguns to their abusive part…	/r/PussyPassDenied	16/08/19 03:42 AM
2	Why are all mass shootings men?(17m) Furthermore, it’s unclear if the “fatherless” household claim would include stepfathers, adoptive fathers, or divorced parents So it's not false but it's not specifically clear. If you are a normal person and see "fatherless" and assume that means there isn't a biological parent actively in the child's life that isn't from a broken home then the statistics hold up just fine. Still, he managed to find 6/26 cases that supported his agenda so what were they? (just doing the first two) "Cho's mother…	/r/MensRights	10/08/19 03:14 PM
2	Let's set aside the "it's in my body for 9 months" and the man has to only pay for 18 years" argument for a few seconds Once the baby is born You are going too far ahead in the argument, most people campaigning for paper abortions don't want to blindside someone with their decision, they want to give plenty of notice and time so that she can make an informed decision as to whether she alone can support raising a child. Yes, we could just expect the mother to raise the child on a single income, but that’s not fair to the child. Yes, what the mother did to that child by raising it themselves despite knowing the fat…	/r/MensRights	31/05/19 01:31 AM
