| 0 | Can Christianity and religions save men from being brainwashed, discriminated against and enslaved by feminists in the name of gender equality?No, we've already traded religion for feminism. Religion is just another flawed ideology that has no unique value. We can get everything we need from secularism and the scientific method. | /r/MensRights | 28/07/26 05:17 PM |
| 1 | Idea for the sub: post a repository of case studies of feminist policymaking that actively harms or dehumanizes men/boysThe worse part is. I challenged the Canadian Health Minister asking why WAGE is in charge of the Men's Health Strategy. They told me that WAGE has shown a dedicated effort towards helping and addressing men and boys issues. They directly cited this 2019 report as the core example. Men and boys are being denied there human rights and the Government of Canada uses reports that mention men and boys as examples of there commitment to gender equality for men and boys. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 28/07/26 02:52 PM |

But it focuses on why men and boys aren't engaging with gender equality and what is need for them to care. It does not highlight the inequity they face. How the Government of Canada actively designed and facilitates gender equality and equity in such a way to deny them rights and recognition. Instead it's f… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/07/26 01:47 PM |
| 1 | Antifeminism will be censored in CanadaFeminists are no different than fundamentalist Christian. This appears to be the simplest way of staying it. Feminism has become like an orthodoxy. It controls all facets of life. Or at least has influence across the board. Including substantive influence in academia, the humanities, politics, international and domestically, and more. It's like being an athiest in a country ruled by religion. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 22/07/26 10:54 PM |
| 2 | Antifeminism will be censored in CanadaI agree. I still can't find a substantive policy or program that actually sees men and boys as human beings. They put on this facade where they use these inclusive general words and phrases. But when you look into the nitty gritty it's purely about controlling men and boys, pathologizing them and minimizing them. Take a look at the Male Survivors of IPV in Canada report. The recommendations section spends more time talking about women and girls and out them first in the recommendations. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 22/07/26 12:17 AM |

It's abhorrent. Also the Canadian Men's Health Strategy being developed is lead by the Women and Gender Equality(WAGE)department. I reached out to the Minsiter for Health who the Men's Health Stratagy page states is in charge. Her department kindly told me that WAGE has demonstrated commitment to men and boys issues.

| 0 | Which country is fairest to men?Yeah but there laws allow for more ability to protect your rights. They may score high in a feminist list. But the foundation of what there legal system is protects more from ideological capture. Like in Canada quotas are allowed. But not in the state. | /r/MensRights | 10/07/26 08:41 PM |
| -8 | Which country is fairest to men?The US might be. Atleast they have certian laws in place that take a more reasonable stance on equity. Like they banned affirmative action and have title 9. They have major problems as a modern country. But I've seen more successful legal challenges there because they are capture purely by the heirachy of equity deserving groups. Edit: why are so many people mad with this comment. I only judged it on the results of there legal system that is certainly more accessible then Canada. | /r/MensRights | 10/07/26 08:22 PM |

Simply to help boys because they are human and because they learn differently then girls. Show me a country that addressed Violence Against Men and Boys. Show me a country that recognized Male Survivors of DV or IPV on par with Female Survivors. Show me a country with funding streams and programs for men and boys. Show me a country that addressed men and boys issues as much as it does for women and girls. Espec… | /r/MensRights | 09/07/26 04:40 PM |

I know the purpose of the terms and when I sit down with them I can accept them. But when major organizations, governments and seemingly everyone with power to change these things or create programs uses them in irresponsible ways. I feel like I want to toss out the terms all together. That any program must first prioritize men's and boys, center them as human beings first. And once the program is established long enough and the caring and empa… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 08/07/26 09:49 PM |

But then will talk about healthy or positive masculinity. I still haven't found an org that doesn't eventually resort too mentioning it and utilizing it. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 08/07/26 08:54 PM |
| 3 | Toxic Masculinity, Healthy Masculinity, Positive Masculinity, Toxic Femininity what are they?I agree. Sadly though this is the main focus of the Men's Health Stratagy in Canada. Which means men and boys will not get the help they need. But instead be forced to address there masculinty through a this prejudicial lense. Men who went to therapy and found it lacking won't get help. The men who were shamed away by therapy by reaching out will be tossed aside. No the minority of men who don't access therapy due to a negative view of it, will be the priority. While the vast majority of men and… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 08/07/26 02:44 PM |
| 5 | Toxic Masculinity, Healthy Masculinity, Positive Masculinity, Toxic Femininity what are they?I agree. Sadly one of the reasons I bring this up is because it's mentioned as the number one concern in Canada's Men's Helaths Stratagy. All the literature puts the primary focus of mens health in getting men to engage more with healthy masculinty. They don't substantively mention a single thing men and boys face that society is required to address or fix. The whole responsibility falls on men and boys. Worse Movement is a key member of the health stratagy and if your read there report it talke… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 08/07/26 12:32 PM |
| 3 | Toxic Masculinity, Healthy Masculinity, Positive Masculinity, Toxic Femininity what are they?But are these terms even useful then? Becuase what I see in this description being a very limited world for men and boys to live in. They are healthy if they provide for others and sacrifice for others. But there toxic if they don't live up to this. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 08/07/26 12:03 PM |
| 2 | Toxic Masculinity, Healthy Masculinity, Positive Masculinity, Toxic Femininity what are they?Do you feel the same way towards Healthy Masculinity as I see them as two sides of the same coin. Like if you are talking about toxic masculinty then healthy masculinity must exist and vice versa. So when people use the term healthy masculinty. I see it as just a way for making men responsible for any bad in the world aswell. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 08/07/26 12:01 PM |
| 2 | Toxic Masculinity, Healthy Masculinity, Positive Masculinity, Toxic Femininity what are they?I disagree I don't see how healthy masculinity is an action by a man to only help a women or other men's kids. That's such a random and limited definition. I don't see using the term healthy masculinity as a good thing. It implies the same things as toxic masculinity. That men are required to fit into this pre-approved box to benefit society. I see healthy masculinty as the same term. That is used to shame a man if he doesn't live up to this ideal of what they believe healthy masculinity should … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 08/07/26 11:42 AM |

Such as we all know Trump is an absolutely horrible president and not good for the US. Where many people voted for Kammala or Biden because they accepted the zero sum approach they take to Gender Equality over Trump. But Kammala and Biden should still have to earn your vote.

Yes test dummies didn't have female body types until the 2000s. But that has been fixed and wasn't based off of sexism but just standardization. Also the idea that women were exlcuded from drug trials is false. Go look up thetinmens posts to see a picture of what is going on. Men earn the right to run most companies.

Yes that's true, but feminism is an opposing force to men and boys who need help. Canada is a great example. The government of Canada treats gender equality as synonymous with feminsim. We literally have a Feminist International Assistance Policy that has now made it so 95% of humanitarian aid goes to women and girls.

| 12 | We need to talk more about Left Wing politics and less about feminismCanada has the Feminist International Assistance Policy that has led to 95% of all humanitarian aid going to women and girls.

| 23 | We need to talk more about Left Wing politics and less about feminismThis is a very 2D post that adds no context. They rely on the apex fallacy, the ecological fallacy and ignores that the government itself is a feminist organization for the most part. Especially in countries like Canada, UK or Australia, etc. Men who have been denied access to DV shelters comes directly from the concentrated effort from women's orgs, fmeinist and governments following the same worldview.

There is a completely different approach that make and female leaders take. The majority of female leaders advocate for and address women's issues. While the majority of male politics also advocate for this same thing.

| 10 | Incel Culture and the Montreal ShooterNo we can't. Because feminism is a foundational part of the system. Feminism is the primary ideology used to address gender equality and equity issues. You could describe it as an orthodoxy with the amount of institutional power and influence it has is immense. The problems is that there are credible and quality criticisms of feminism that need to happen. We need to dismantle parts of feminism to build a more egalitarian system and approach. That can not erase or marganalize men and boys issues.… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/06/26 09:41 PM |
| 10 | Incel Culture and the Montreal ShooterI called for a Standing Committee on the Status of Men and a Minister for Men in my posts body. Canada outright denies men and boys help through these entities. Without them we curate a narrative and culture that stigmatizes and marganalizes men and boys who need this help. They also have laws that directly label gender equity and equality as a zero sum game. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/06/26 09:29 PM |
| 14 | Incel Culture and the Montreal ShooterThey use these tragedies to get more funding. The they use that funding to further entrench there ideology into the system. Which creates more disenfranchised young men. Which eventually leads to an attack every 5-10 years. When then allows them to us that new tragedy to start the cycle again. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/06/26 08:15 PM |
| 13 | Incel Culture and the Montreal ShooterNo, but they are so infrequent in Canada we should have the resources and time to come to a better understanding of why they happen and what is needed to prevent them. They won't see this as a failure to address boys education gaps, or the male teacher gap or the thousands of other ways boys are being disenfranchised. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/06/26 08:14 PM |

Feminism is an ideological movement and it has decided on a worldview.

Sadly I've seen enough people try to fix that I've the years and face real barriers from other who say they support equality or equity.

| 1 | What would your Government do or look like if they actually Cared about Men and Boys in your Country?Yeah I see it as three separate definitions. An egalitarian would propose a law so that all are included. But a feminist could propose a law in such a way that it only applies to men but still upholds the idea that they are fighting for women's rights.

Men and women weren't voted into these roles. Society, and nature pressured us into it. Are silverbacks the defenders of there tribe? Why? Could it be because the biological dri… | /r/MensRights | 05/03/26 05:48 AM |
| 5 | Which Mens Rights Are Being Taken Away?I judged feminism by its actions. I've given you dozens of examples in other comments. I have never once seen an example of a feminist, pro female leader or any one of the ilk that calls out the exclusion, erasure or marganalization of men and boys. Everytime I see the same justification for why things like the Minister for Women and GE is needed but a double standard for why a Minister for Men and GE is not needed. The ideology makes claims it clearly does not live up to. It's the same reason I… | /r/MensRights | 05/03/26 05:43 AM |
| 5 | Which Mens Rights Are Being Taken Away?Calling a system a patriarchy means men as a class built and maintained it to benefit themselves as a class. That doesn’t match reality. A system run by a small number of men is not the same thing as a system built for men. Calling our history a patriachy is collapsing the idea that powerful men cared for or about men as a class. The vast majority of men had no say it influence on society. So no it was not a patriachy, but am aristocratic system. The system emerged from the need for survival and… | /r/MensRights | 05/03/26 05:39 AM |
| 3 | Which Mens Rights Are Being Taken Away?There s symptom of the problem. Men and boys value as human beings is less then that of women and girls. Our status and the help we are granted is not on par with what society grants women and girls. Look into mens outgroup bias and women's in group bias. It makes sense when you compare it to everything else I've shared with you. Society has always seen men as a disposable sex, not worthy of rights or protections. Remember most men I my got the right to vote after risking their lives in the wars… | /r/MensRights | 05/03/26 05:26 AM |
| 5 | Which Mens Rights Are Being Taken Away?These all challenged my view. For a short period of time I was a feminist becuase I believed it was the movement for equality. These resources are all examples of how the system is designed to exclude men and boys. I'm not sure I get your question? You'll need to provide an example of something that could challenge this view. The resources I have you, talk about an extreme variety of issues and topics. Of course they point to the same thing, you're in a men's rights forum. | /r/MensRights | 05/03/26 05:24 AM |
| 2 | Which Mens Rights Are Being Taken Away?There is an advantage to be had when most CEOs are male. There is a bias and culture built that gives some men more advantage over other equally ambitious. But at the same time way more men work and due to gender norms are pressured into these careers. So it makes sense more CEOs are male and will continue to be when most workers are male. And men work longer hours and more men are more ambitious over all The difference between patriachy and gynocentrism is that all laws do not stem from gynocen… | /r/MensRights | 05/03/26 05:15 AM |
| 3 | Which Mens Rights Are Being Taken Away?How about just the right to bodily autonomy? I believe MGM is not protected in any western country. FGM is protected in most Western and other countries. A bit has every equal or equitable human right to bodily autonomy. Yet even leaders in so called equality and equity have passed legislation that needlessly excludes the protection of MGM. | /r/MensRights | 05/03/26 05:04 AM |
| 7 | Which Mens Rights Are Being Taken Away?Warren Ferrell's books are good. Like the Myth of Male Power The Red Pill Movie is good and explains a lot of the history. Thetinmen on Instragram and YouTube. Donald Dutton and Maurice Strauss's research The canadian Male Victims of IPV report from I believe 2020 Patriachy is a harmful term because we don't live in a patriachy, not in western countries. Also it's unfalsifiable, meaning everything can be asserted to point back to it. Patriachy theory used the power theory to presuppose that all … | /r/MensRights | 05/03/26 05:00 AM |
| 3 | Which Mens Rights Are Being Taken Away?We have not historical been the absurd. Feminism, the Duluth model and patriachy theory have infested DV services since the beginning. Men have never had a fair chance of reporting there abuse, having there abuse taken seriously or having meaningful services to help them. Even today a man who calls the cops in a country like Canada will be more likely to be arrested. There is a story of a man with a knife in his stomach who was taken to the hospital then arrested. Formal services will only provi… | /r/MensRights | 05/03/26 04:55 AM |
| 1 | Which Mens Rights Are Being Taken Away?The governments and societies bias have put these issues forward. Feminism acts as if it is a movement for equality and equity. But compare the ideals of Feminism, Men's Rights Activism and Egalatarianism. The first two do not meet the standards of egalatarianism and thus can never be sufficent in addressing equality or equity. Since Feminism has been the dominate narrative, force and group of advaoctes shaping society for 80+ years. We now live in a period were men and boys have been denied rig… | /r/MensRights | 05/03/26 04:52 AM |

For example in Canada in the last 80 years: There is a Standing Committee on the Status of Women A Minister for Women and Gender Equality A Feminist International Assistance Policy that prioritizes women and girls no matter what FGM is Criminalized, MGM is not The Employment Equity Act excludes men and other groups needlessly The Pay Equity Act excludes male job classes GBA+ a legislative tool is controlled and used through th… | /r/MensRights | 05/03/26 04:43 AM |
| 2 | The University of Toronto is hiring a biology professor. Selection will be limited to candidates who identify as women, trans, nonbinary, Two-Spirit, and gender fluid, racialized persons/visible minorities, Indigenous Peoples, persons with disabilities. The salary range is $138,000 to $153,000.What evidence do you have that this is false? How do you make that assertion when this is the exact words they used. My MPP literally said we do not us quotas as well as a friend. As for what they say. My MPP just ignores the eveicne and won't answer any questions. When I told them about male victims of IPV and how women are the perpetrators they just said, "oh well I have to look into that". While I cited the Federal Obudspersons report on Male Victims. Evidence doesn't matter. They just ignore… | /r/MensRights | 28/02/26 10:23 PM |

Selection will be limited to candidates who identify as women, trans, nonbinary, Two-Spirit, and gender fluid, racialized persons/visible minorities, Indigenous Peoples, persons with disabilities. The salary range is $138,000 to $153,000.In the last year have have heard form my MPP and a friend who is in EDI that Canada doesn't have affirmative action or quotas. This is a Tier 2 science chair position. So in Canada I believe there are more Teir 2 chairs that are women and almost parity in Teir 1 positions. Since Canada only allows equity programs to seek equity when a group is the minority these Teir 2 positions should not be allowed to discriminate against men. But since equity and euqlaity have never been about fairness or the… | /r/MensRights | 28/02/26 05:45 PM |
| 6 | Men's Issues are invisible in discourseWe know how it presents differently and more prominently in men. This isn't an opinion. We know men have fewer friends. Men are less likely to be able to express there struggles due to stigma, societal bias and learned risk of being vulnerable. We know men have an out group bias and women and in group bias. No one said women can't be lonely. But when you look at the whole. We know that more men are lonely and even compared to the average women are lonelier.

| 8 | Men's Issues are invisible in discourseNo one said they didn't. For example: Impossible Standards: men and women have overlapping and unique impossible standards Blamed for being abused: again this does apply to women and men. But women aren't likely to be arrested when the call the police after being abused. They aren't likely to call SA centers and be blamed, etc. Underreporting abuse do to shame: there is a completely different world that male victims of abuse live through compared to female victims. Of course female victims will … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/02/26 08:57 PM |
| 8 | Men's Issues are invisible in discourseWhere are these proper Feminist. Becuase in Canada Trudeau claimed to be a Feminist. He passed the Pay Equity Act that denies male job classes pay equity. He expanded the Minister for Women and GE over reach. He built a COVID task force staffed completely by women, becuase slightly more women lost jobs. The actions proper feminists take continue to treat gender equality as a one way road. There is no multi-axis.

Were no more then 50% of signatures for nomination can come from cisgender men. Meaning 100% of signatures can come from cisgender women. Also they switched to this new rule only recently. Before the rule was something like a minimum percentage (I think 50%) had to come from any group other then heterosexual, cisgender, white men. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 30/01/26 05:02 AM |
| 18 | Federal health minister to launch strategy on men's and boys' health in 2026Though many may say this is a step forward. I see it as a crumb being tossed to men. Especially until Canada sees the flaws in the ideology of things like feminism. Men and Boys can't have any true access to support. This plan is organized by Movember and a BC university. One of Movembers goals is to have a deputy department under the Minister for Women and Gender Equity for Men and Boys. Movember seeks to make men and boys advocacy and awarness second place to women and girls. Not to call out t… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 29/01/26 01:14 PM |

Via sex, gender identity, expression, creed, age etc. it does not seem to be able to apply to or distinguish an indivudals needs. The issue as other users have said.
