| 1 | Male feminists get the taste of their own medicineAnd I'm curious why the report from 20 years ago is apparently being shared around in Men's Rights circles. Looking at the report itself it appears that reported rape is dramatically increasing- and I know that rape cases and accountability for rape has increased drastically over the past few years. I would imagine there would be a similar report from 2017, or even this century? | /r/MensRights | 12/03/18 02:50 PM |
| 1 | Male feminists get the taste of their own medicineRape has four times the "unfounded" rate of all index crimes (murder, assault, robbery, theft, etc...) Is that someone falsely accusing a specific person, or like that one woman on the news three days ago who claimed that three men abducted and raped her, without giving any specific names or anything? | /r/MensRights | 12/03/18 02:40 PM |
| 1 | Male feminists get the taste of their own medicineWhat I am saying is calling an accuser a rape victim is assuming guilt I agree. We shouldn't assume they are lying or telling the truth, but investigate and see if we can find out what happened. I agree, but the default among Men's Rights seems to be assuming they are lying. And that's too far. | /r/MensRights | 12/03/18 11:29 AM |
| 1 | Male feminists get the taste of their own medicineAnd this subreddit is presupposing every accuser is a liar. | /r/MensRights | 12/03/18 06:45 AM |
| 1 | Male feminists get the taste of their own medicineDid you read what i wrote at all. I explicitly stated they arent proven true or proven false. Then I'd like to see where you get your statistics from, because that's nothing like I've seen. | /r/MensRights | 11/03/18 04:18 PM |
| 1 | Male feminists get the taste of their own medicineNo one believes accusers are liars by default. This subreddit appears to. To put it more succinctly, 3% of rape accusations are proven true. 8% are proven false. 89% of rape accusations are never proven true or false. Something not proved to be true beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law doesn't automatically prove the accuser to be a liar. | /r/MensRights | 11/03/18 02:42 PM |
| 1 | Male feminists get the taste of their own medicineYou're just being facetious now. | /r/MensRights | 11/03/18 02:32 PM |
| 1 | Male feminists get the taste of their own medicineum ok | /r/MensRights | 11/03/18 01:21 PM |
| 1 | Male feminists get the taste of their own medicineThere's a difference between a real rape accusation and one that's obviously used to troll someone on Twitter. The guy's reaction is a little oversensitive, but it's not hypocritical. This sub has gone from "People should be presumed innocent until proven guilty" to "All rape victims are liars and screw everyone who supports them" | /r/MensRights | 11/03/18 12:44 PM |
| 1 | Male feminists get the taste of their own medicineThere is a space in between. You should trust but verify. Innocent until proven guilty is true for both sexual assault and false accusations. People are going too far when they think people accusing someone of rape should be viewed as liars upon default, instead of being viewed as unverified. | /r/MensRights | 11/03/18 12:36 PM |
| 1 | Male feminists get the taste of their own medicineBelieving rape victims imply you forgo the concept of innocent until proven guilty That would be accusers, not victims. And believing rape victims are making else accusations is forgoing the concept of innocent until proven guilty, too. It works both ways. | /r/MensRights | 11/03/18 12:33 PM |
| 1 | Male feminists get the taste of their own medicineWow, you guys really hate guys who believe rape victims. | /r/MensRights | 11/03/18 09:12 AM |

| 2 | Sanity Sunday on true equalityWhen I said "individual scene" it was in response to you saying people got mad at her getting raped over months and months. Not true. They were outraged at the graphic nature of individual scene, not the idea of her getting repeatedly raped. And my point is that the scene you're bringing up got more attention because of the "they consented part of the way through" defense and that's the same argument people are using for the Gendry scene. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 27/08/17 05:59 PM |
| 2 | Sanity Sunday on true equalityPeople were outraged at both. What got them a lot of attention for Jaime raping Cersei was the idea that it was rape at first, but Cersei "consented" part of the way through, according to the directors. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 27/08/17 05:53 PM |

You can gain as much information from that article as you can from an article from Breitbart saying the origins of Antifa or the extremist that shot Republican congressmen came from feminist websites and forums from people searching for like-minded ideas on socio-political issues. It's just trying to box everyone on far sides of the spectrum into people closer to the middle and it's goofy. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 27/08/17 03:02 PM |

They told me he wouldn't feel a thing!The only reason that argument applied for abortions was because there are legitimate medical reasons for doing it. There are religious reasons for doing it, which is enough that thousands of people who are very Christian, traditionally Jewish, or traditionally Muslim will do it outside of the law.

| 2 | Noticed This in a RestroomI admit I was a little hasty and only read the tagline and assumed it just meant in general. I think worldwide more women die of breast cancer than prostate cancer but you're absolutely right, more Australian men die from prostate cancer than women from breast cancer. https://canceraustralia.gov.au/affected-cancer/what-cancer/cancer-australia-statistics I'm curious why that is. | /r/MensRights | 05/04/17 03:42 AM |

| 1 | Girlfriend who tried to kill her partner by pouring sulphuric acid on him for as he slept leaving him disfigured and blind is jailed for lifeThat is actually textbook strawman. You reduced my argument to an overly simplistic exaggeration to claim rightness of position. No I didn't. I asked you what would qualify as bad enough to count as "life ruining" since losing your sight and becoming disfigured isn't enough for you. I'm genuinely trying to get a better grasp on what you believe- what type of thing would you consider "life ruining" or at least worthy of depression/suicide? | /r/MensRights | 22/03/17 12:34 PM |
| 2 | Girlfriend who tried to kill her partner by pouring sulphuric acid on him for as he slept leaving him disfigured and blind is jailed for lifeThat's not what a straw man is. Suggesting that people should feel horrible isn't going to help people in this position. Invalidating someone's depression and suicide doesn't help either. We're not talking to a disabled person about how they should feel. We're talking to each other. You feel that being left blind and disfigured is something you can just walk off and get over fairly easily.

If you're trying to say that societies led by women can be just as violent as ones led by men, then okay- if you're trying to imply primitive matriarchal societies were any more brutal than patriarchal ones, that's a little unfair. | /r/MensRights | 22/03/17 09:41 AM |

If there's a gap it's been greatly exaggerated. In addition, the math doesn't work out if the average global IQ is somewhere around 80 or 90. By definition, the average IQ should be 100 because 100 is the baseline all intelligences are compared to. There are other studies of IQ that say that there is no gap or a negligible gap.

Did Europeans write a test that was culturally biased for the Chinese? Languages are different. For example, In Chinese/Japanese they don't have seperate numbers for eleven, twelve, thirteen, etc. eleven is one-one, twelve is one-two, which is slightly easier to process and can award a higher score on IQ tests.

Countries have a lot of things that are considered immoral elsewhere. That's what I am saying. And he's right: when I was 13-14, I wanted to have sex with everything that moves.

And the fact that /r/feminism bans you for almost anything doesn't help their numbers. And /r/egalitarianism clocks it at 2k readers and is all but abandoned, because most people want equality for themselves, not equality for all; most people want to be more equal than others. | /r/MensRights | 21/07/13 06:14 AM |

The overall tone of it is that female circumcision should not have an effect on HIV and that the correlation does not equal causation. "Increased years of sexual activity were associated with HIV-2 seropositivity, while a history of excision and BCG vaccinations decreased the risk of HIV-2 infection." Oh, so excision means circumcision? How can someone have a "history" of it? It makes it sound like it's happened more than once. And if they're comparing ex… | /r/MensRights | 30/06/13 05:18 AM |

How do I explain this to him?Does WHO ever refer to male circumcision as "genital mutilation"? After a quick search on the website, the phrase "male genital mutilation" is never used. And that's a little unfair, female circumcision can be anywhere from cutting off a clitoris to trimming a millimeter of skin from the labia.

That being said, it's not a big deal. The thing is, there are many people who are not circumcized and have no idea what it's like, read a bunch of articles on the intactivist website, and think it's equivalent to amputation, and it's not.

So the fact that most circumcised men are fine with it.... means that those who aren't are "making a big deal out of it" as you say?

Bias can very well mean untruth, or skewed truth. If it was from a medical professional as opposed to anti-circumcision website, it would be a more reliable source. The reasons why even one death is one too many is the fact that circumcision is medically necessary. Every single baby that dies from being circumcised dies needlessly. And that is also the difference in the accidental deaths in your example above. I don't see any difference. … | /r/MensRights | 14/04/13 07:48 PM |
