| 2 | A Letter to MenWhich is why, I suppose, you are here on reddit saying that only women are talking about it. No, it's why I'm here on Reddit saying that: most of the people writing about these MRA issues are women instead of men. And of your list, I don't see any names writing for periodicals. Incidentally, Warren Farrell, who I have heard of, and read, was a strident feminist for decades. Most of the other names appear to be either obscure radio talk-show hosts or minor academics and lawyers with books publish… | /r/MensRights | 21/05/10 05:28 PM |
| 4 | A Letter to MenFirst, article was not about women and men but men and themselves, and has nothing to do with institutions. That's right, and that's what I was addressing in my response to ignatiusloyola. Your article took men to task for: the stupid actions of men that have enabled feminists to keep grabbing more power without much of a challenge. We have had a gender war, guys. The problem is that you didn‘t show up. Characterizing the state of affairs as a "gender war" clearly implies that people need to rec… | /r/MensRights | 20/05/10 11:38 PM |
| 2 | A Letter to MenYou know, I think it is human nature to be apathetic towards something until it affects them personally. I disagree. People have empathy, and that's exactly why movements like this, or any emancipatory movement, eventually catch on and accomplish something. The problem with the link is that it really doesn't understand what creates these problems in the first place. The issue isn't men vs. women, it's institutions demanding that everyone behave according to a role. That's why most of the people … | /r/MensRights | 20/05/10 08:48 PM |
| 5 | Why omega males are cropping up in TV and movies like Greenberg.The concept of the "alpha male" has been debunked. It didn't apply to the wolf packs it was supposed to apply to, and it certainly doesn't apply to men. But what she's referring to is a world-wide phenomenon. Some men are tired of being told how they're supposed to act and what they're supposed want in order for them to be "real men." So, they're just dropping out. They simply recognize that they're playing against a stacked deck anyhow, and are tired of all the double standards and all the obst… | /r/MensRights | 20/03/10 12:15 AM |
| 1 | On how not to get used.However, based on my experiences [...] some of the stereotypes she's mocking are true [because] many women are socialized in a way (and encourage each other to do the same) that it's absolutely OK. I agree. I would think the blogger agrees too, since she's complaining about these women. But I don't think that people who know better should play into this stuff just because it happens frequently and people might: humiliate and look down upon men who don't accept such rules They frequently will, as… | /r/MensRights | 01/03/10 01:38 AM |
| 4 | On how not to get used.suggesting to take sex out of relationships sounds like the perfect advice to create more mentally/emotionally abusive women. You know, the type that believes it's perfectly OK to have male friends who are clearly wanting more but don't have the communications skills/self-confidence to be assertive about it, and "using" them for emotional support, or even as a free movies and drinks voucher. I think you have a few layers of assumptions built into this that you might want to take another look at.… | /r/MensRights | 28/02/10 07:48 PM |
| 2 | Help me find something?I found several studies which showed a difference between "English"-sounding names and "foreign"-sounding names. Appearantly, if you have an African, Chinese, Indian or Pakistani derived name, you'll get fewer callbacks. The only write-up I could find that listed the statistics for male vs. female names did, if you count only the English names, show a small bias in favor of female names: The nine women's names got a total of 93.9% callbacks, for an average rate of 10.43%, while the nine men's na… | /r/MensRights | 27/02/10 09:26 PM |
| 6 | On how not to get used.So in my understanding she's saying that sex and a relationship are two separate things. That you as a female can have relationships with males without sex and you can get "affectionate attention and emotional security" from them. I'm pretty sure I'm misunderstanding this Why do you think you're misunderstanding that? Do your friends not provide affection and act as confidants? Do you think that men don't have the capacity to be friends? Do you think sex always has to involve something other tha… | /r/MensRights | 27/02/10 06:35 PM |
| 9 | The difference between a feminist and a feminazi, and how to tell them apart.Just so you know, Christina Hoff Summers coined the term "gender feminism" to describe the branch of feminism which: accent[s] the differences of genders for the purposes of creating privilege for women in academia, government, industry, or advancing personal agendas. [...] [and] engage in bad scholarship to advance [...] a skewed and incendiary message: 'Women are from Venus, men are from Hell'. While feminists don't seem too fond of it, they do recognize the term and it's much less inflammator… | /r/MensRights | 20/09/09 12:24 AM |
| 7 | "Roe v. Wade for Men" - I think this is a bad idea.As far as "the person who chose to lie about contraceptive use and decided to have a child", no strong legal remedy for this behavior comes to mind. Well, if you really think that "a little bit of unfairness is a good thing," then how about taking the child from someone who has obtained it through deception and putting him up for adoption, so he has a chance to grow up in a trustworthy family? Understand, I'm not advocating this approach, but I do believe mens' reproductive rights should be as w… | /r/MensRights | 29/08/09 10:29 PM |
| 10 | "Roe v. Wade for Men" - I think this is a bad idea.Someone has to provide for these children. Why not the biological father? Why not the person who chose to lie about contraceptive use and decided to have a child without the prospective father's consent or knowledge? If she's really in financial trouble, then I, and the rest of us, have paid taxes to ensure that she, and anyone else, has access to public assistance programs. Honestly, I don't understand what points of Dubay's argument you disagree with: he made it clear to Wells that he was not … | /r/MensRights | 29/08/09 09:43 PM |
| 2 | Female Redditor wants to know why there is so much sexism on here. Let's try and help her see things from our POV. Re-post from Ask.Reddit.I don't think they want to hear another point of view. I was downvoted without explanation. I didn't expect it to be a popular comment, or a popular point of view, but silent downvotes just seem like the Reddit equivalent of slapping your hands over your ears. | /r/MensRights | 29/08/09 08:41 PM |
| 1 | Do you think the sexes have intrinsic psychological differences that justify treating people differently because of their gender?Can you please provide a link to the /r/feminisms discussion, too? It's more active, so there might be more intelligent discussion there. It appears to be less active, but the range and tenor of the responses looks to be about the same as here. | /r/MensRights | 16/08/09 05:35 PM |
| 3 | Men's Rights reddit: What are your opinions on feminismI'd like to hear your argument as to why gender roles are needed in modern society. I don't think they are needed. In fact, I think that insisting people adhere to roles they had no choice about is debilitating: [It was] a movement meant to address rigid gender roles and their debilitating consequences [...] however [...] it started from the false assumption that these gender roles only had adverse effects on women [, but we know] how wrong that assumption was [because these roles have adverse e… | /r/MensRights | 15/06/09 09:07 PM |
| 7 | Men have not stacked the decks against women.Here's Google's cache of it. (And you might want to clear your browser's cookies.) | /r/MensRights | 14/06/09 09:03 PM |
| 7 | Men's Rights reddit: What are your opinions on feminismI think it probably started out as a movement meant to address rigid gender roles and their debilitating consequences in our society. Since the movement, originally, addressed genuine disparities, it gained popular support and affected change in society. Unfortunately, however, it was way too narrowly-focused and lop-sided to begin with because it started from the false assumption that these gender roles only had adverse effects on women. I suspect that most everyone who visits this subreddit kn… | /r/MensRights | 14/06/09 05:50 PM |
| 1 | Advise this man. he asks: How do I get rid of a crazy girlfriend who will charge me with rape if I break up with her?Tell him to ask himself whether he'd want to deal with a broken legal system or a psychotic girlfriend for the next several years. (I'd take my chances with a jury. At least most of them would be sane.) | /r/MensRights | 25/01/09 09:49 AM |
| 9 | Is it fair that only women have reproductive rights while men only have reproductive responsibilities?I would like someone to explain to my how this isn't completely ridiculous. The article presents a point of view that is rarely expressed in our society. Mainly, that men have a stake in pregnancy also, and that cutting them out of the loop isn't as just as we might like to think: Bill, a builder, was ecstatic when his fiancée became pregnant. Raised in a broken home, he dreamed of being the caring father he never had. His joy turned to grief when she told him she had miscarried -- and agony whe… | /r/MensRights | 06/10/08 09:03 PM |
| 3 | Nowadays, for many men, the negatives of marriage often outweigh the positives.it's true that they suffer, but that they suffer just as much, that's BULLSHIT right there. I don't think Forensic was using the word "suffering" in the same sense you are. There's no doubt that these things have direct, immediate, adverse consequences for men or for any woman who cares about anyone who is male. “why men are bad,” [...] is the new slogan for the 21st century. But, allowing a group of people to demonize men in the name of women, and then create and enforce public policy that puni… | /r/MensRights | 03/07/08 04:32 PM |
