| 8 | "Making Fun Of White Women Is Not A Feminist Issue, So Stop Making It Out To Be"That was actually quite good. I didn't like the typical usage of such words as "privilege" and the rest.

| 2 | Tumblr DeliversI was saying it from the point of impact. Saying "raping is bad" to the rapist is not gonna work. I mean - he knows raping is bad. He still does it. Meanwhile giving advice to an alcoholic about checking his surroundings first before getting drunk can have an impact. At least he/she is rational before drinking and is probably willing to take protective measures.

| 5 | Tumblr DeliversThat was just an advice to refrain from claiming something to be a logical conclusion when expressing something other than that. It was not an insult, but it sounded like one. So you are free to take it as an insult if you like. On reflection I should have written it in a better tone, but I was in a strange mood. | /r/MensRights | 22/09/13 01:28 PM |
| 0 | Tumblr DeliversI didn't say "embarrassment from being misunderstood" I said "embarrassed and misunderstood", which are different things. Regarding the spelling - I never claimed my sentence to be written correctly. But the OP claimed his to be a logical conclusion, which is not. If someone says that sea is blue and the logical conclusion of it is that fish fly - I might have misunderstood what the message was. Or the deliverer might have misunderstood what "logic" is.

| 8 | Woman gets life sentence for making 13-year-old boy touch her breasts; Lawyer cries, says the law was never intended for people like herSure. Ideally MRM has it's say and someone listens and the nature of these laws are examined. Best course of action for me and probably a lot of us. No sentencing occurs and awareness is raised. But if the options are between jailing and jailing men or applying equal standards, jailing few women and getting awareness that way I must say I prefer the latter. And not because it is a women that gets jailed, but because that is the quicker way. | /r/MensRights | 17/07/13 10:16 PM |
| – | Woman gets life sentence for making 13-year-old boy touch her breasts; Lawyer cries, says the law was never intended for people like herSure, I am not saying it is the preferable way. I am saying that MRM exist for quite a few years now, trying best to convey the ridiculous nature of these laws to the public. However little is changed. So if change is achieved quicker by exposing the other gender to the same standards - I welcome it. The way that puts less people in these situations is preferable. | /r/MensRights | 17/07/13 09:58 PM |

In that case I would argue against the monopoly of the service provided. If the government is providing such service - then no discrimination should be default, because the business is not private, but public. If some person is providing the service - he should not be able to hold a monopoly.

If we are talking about laws that supposedly prevent the society from disintegrating to chaos - I don't think they are needed. Simply because if society would be that barbaric - laws would not function.

Well but they can go to a different provider of the same service. And by doing that they will bring less profit to the racist one. So it's a good thing. Also it can backfire.

| 0 | U.S. court affirms dentist legally fired assistant he found too attractiveMight really be. I can offer part of my answer that I just typed to another person I am talking with. Consider slavery. Slaves were freed. Is this a result of a law or evolution and social awareness by the public? I think awareness comes first, laws come second. Without social stimulus for change, no laws would be passed to free the slaves. With the same argument - if we would abolish the law, the awareness would remain and slavery would not be back. | /r/MensRights | 13/07/13 01:39 AM |

Women don't want to marry rich jerks as well. They want to fuck with rich jerks till they are young and once those same rich jerks start refusing and looking for other women, they turn and look for a sweet caring guy to marry.

I, for example, see people compared to Hitler or Stalin almost daily. Those should keep MRA quite busy if they would want to see analogies as an issue and apply consistency.

I personally would say that the responsibility is solely with the person who is drinking, not everyone else around him. | /r/MensRights | 21/10/12 11:15 PM |

| 0 | "...men in general are expected to view their sexuality and natural sexual instinct as predatory, something to be ashamed of, something dirty and devious which marks them out as potential rapists."In my opinion this is a battle no one should pick. How he or she is expected to behave is not so easy to change. It's in the society and it's hard to change views. How can it be changed within this generation? Censoring of the films where males portrayed as predators? Restricting the freedom to opinion and speech? Sounds horrible. Best MRA can do now is to fight against what can actually be changed in their generation. Like laws, biased opportunities and unequal distribution of mandatory service… | /r/MensRights | 23/08/12 08:14 AM |

They might come to the right conclusion, you know. They might support free elections where everyone is allowed to vote. But their arguments would be weak ones. And if we let such important things rest on mere economics, mere short-term practicality that means we have lost sight of what is really important."

| – | I'm all for women agreeing with us, but do we have to always give the biweekly female convert 400+ upvotes while real issues don't see 100?I am 100% for women here. What I don't like is that some people change their attitude when they start talking with a female. Suddenly instead of logic much more emotional texts are used, issuing apologies in advance and similar stuff. Also a lot of agreeing and trying to get validated. Of course the opposite (insults and accusations, sexism) is worse. But I don't see much of it. | /r/MensRights | 22/08/12 06:09 AM |

| 2 | The greatest champion for the falsely accused condemns calculating women who lie about rape. By Alan Dershowitz, originally in 1994 in the Washington Times, and still valid.In October 2006, Dershowitz wrote to DePaul University faculty members to lobby against Finkelstein's application for tenure. The university's Liberal Arts and Sciences faculty voted to send a letter of complaint to Harvard University.[66] In June 2007, DePaul University denied Finkelstein tenure.[67] More HERE I don't like him for this reason, because I endorse Finkelstein. He used his authority to hide the flaws of his book by denying tenure to his opponent. That is the lowest of lows in my un… | /r/MensRights | 16/08/12 03:20 PM |

Not rape or cheat, but going along with it even though I don't want to because I'm scared of the repercussions. That's where my understanding of women ends. :) Or men who also do this.

| – | This was posted to Facebok by a group called "Women's Rights News". Judging by the rest of their content, they have no idea of the most important meaning of the comic - that people are too quick to judge everything as so male-dominated, even for opposite reasons.I am not sure there would be any reliefs. What I was getting at is that the wishes those women have are not their own or in other words - they are conditioned. For example cigarets were once considered a symbol of male dominance and there was a taboo for women to smoke cigarets. And then it all changed so that women smoking cigarets were portrayed as free and empowered. But the transition from "symbol of male power" to "symbol of female freedom" was not done by society. In fact this was a market… | /r/MensRights | 11/08/12 10:14 PM |

To me that is a clear indication of males controlling their jealousy. But came here to ask you opinion about this: Imagine if all the laws were gone in some Muslim country.

Sorry, man, didn't want to start hostile arguments. I agree that rape is unjust, bad, and should be dealt with. Just don't agree that suggesting to take precautions (as dress less modestly) is victim blaming. Telling a man to protect his Lamborghini by locking it and not leaving it at dark corners of suburbs is not victim blaming the same way.

| – | Suggesting women drink responsibly causes outrage from feminist groups.Theories are constructed by merging the evidence and facts into one body. To say it's "merely a theory" is not doing justice to what a theory is. As a common example of this - gravity is (only) a theory. No, evolution favors men who are able to "get" women. Evolutionarily speaking, women are less likely to keep children who are the products of rape. There is a thing called "paternity uncertainty". Often women cannot know for sure whos the child is. There were even studies that stated that the ch… | /r/MensRights | 05/08/12 11:30 AM |
| – | Suggesting women drink responsibly causes outrage from feminist groups.Well here we disagree. I think evolutionary psychology has the larger base of evidence than all the other branches of psychology combined. Here is the view I am putting forward: Men who are unable to get women have the only chance to have offspring - rape. So evolution favors rape. At the same time women who are not aware of the signals they are sending are at a higher chance to have an (post-rape) offspring. So evolution favors women who are ignorant of mens intentions and what turned them on. … | /r/MensRights | 05/08/12 10:35 AM |
| – | Suggesting women drink responsibly causes outrage from feminist groups.Don't wear a miniskirt is also a sane advice for someone who is afraid of rape. Some evolutionary psychologists put it this way: "Young women should be informed that, during the evolution of human sexuality, the existence of female choice has favored men who are quickly aroused by signals of a female's willingness to grant sexual access. Furthermore, women need to realize that, because selection favored males who had many mates, men tend to read signals of acceptance into a woman's actions even … | /r/MensRights | 05/08/12 08:05 AM |

Women surpass men on IQ test scores.Most IQ tests are constructed so that there are no overall score differences between females and males.[91] Because environmental factors affect brain activity and behavior, where differences are found, it can be difficult for researchers to assess whether or not the differences are innate. Areas where differences have been found include verbal and mathematical ability. One can construct an IQ test in such a way so it favors women. Also it can be constructed so that it favors men.
