| 52 | "All white men, step back" is not discrimination according to Unia (a Belgium public institution supposed to fight discrimination and promotes equal opportunities)Remember, it's not discrimination, as long as enough people don't like the group you're attacking! I would post historically accurate examples of this kind of behavior and how wonderfully it turned out, but it's reddit, so that's not allowed. | /r/MensRights | 27/07/26 11:16 PM |

| 2 | Is it true that feminists have done more for men than MRAs?Sure, so I'd guess maybe recent feminism is like 10% good, 70% bad and the rest neutral for men. Feminists have raised valid critiques of society and relationships. That's good. But even excluding all flavors of direct misandry and weird bigotry (eg, rules in feminist NGO funding), feminist subculture includes overt bias (look at the tone and rhetoric in "academic" literature), encourages the use of social attacks and discriminatory policy to create closed off echo chambers (under orwellian name… | /r/MensRights | 25/07/26 04:03 AM |
| 3 | Nothing treated worse than men in patriarchy, the life of a man is half the life of a woman, women now have double the rights of men.This shouldn't be downvoted. OP made some big claims without a clear explanation or evidence. But they did make several reasonable points though, too. | /r/MensRights | 25/07/26 12:25 AM |
| 1 | The historical myth of Male privilegeKeep in mind that rule makers, even at their best, tend to overrepresent their own interests or even viewpoints. Historically, men have often been rule makers in important area of life. But here's the catch: we're doing all the analysis at the sex/gender level which basically creates 2 huge 50-50 groups out of all humans. But this doesn't reflect the reality of oppression and privilege. For example, the US archives reported that in 1791, some 94% of white men in the US could not legally vote. So… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 25/07/26 12:15 AM |
| 1 | I did the research to PROVE that "It's ALL Men" was nothing but a LIEWhen addressing the "all men" claims, I go even more aggressive and look a broad range of violent crime (although convictions-based) and use a "high enough" age threshold to reduce the denominator (from 147 million men down to maybe 128 million, IIRC). I do also "pretend" that each crime is committed by a distinct man (ignoring the reality which is that the majority of crimes are committed by a relatively small number). This drives up the proportion of "maybe" violent men much, much higher, to l… | /r/MensRights | 24/07/26 11:41 PM |

It's also good to post or read up on legal developments (either in your country or to learn about how other countries are addressing issues from a gender perspective) | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 24/07/26 11:06 PM |
| 3 | Is it true that feminists have done more for men than MRAs?Wut? Look, feminist analysis is capable of raising meaningful social critique and is clearly more organized than more male-oriented efforts. But overwhelmingly, they have created a culture of small-minded echo chamber bigotry (I mean, read their "academic" papers if you haven't seen the pervasiveness of this), so they're not effective at much of anything helpful. Keep in mind, a bunch of weirdos (mostly men) do the same thing for men's issues but are readily criticized in popular media, academia… | /r/MensRights | 24/07/26 09:45 PM |

| 10 | Some interesting takes on misandry on this postWords have meaning. Egalitarian means equality. Some self-described feminists happen to be egalitarian Neither "Feminism" nor "men's rights" mean "egalitarian" even if some people who use either of those terms happen to also believe in egalitarianism | /r/MensRights | 23/07/26 01:25 PM |
| 12 | Any shows/movies where toxic femininity is critiqued?I recall a pew research study which indicated a meaningful portion of women trust other women less than men because of certain commonly cited behaviors in women like cattiness and backstabbing. I've also heard that men are known for dealing with disagreements and competition historically through physical force where women are more likely to use tactics like guilt, shaming, gossip and so on. I don't have citations, but my point is that I think there are disparate bodies of work that characterize … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/07/26 11:06 PM |

| 2 | How Do Men "Systemically Rape?"Systemic? I think they believe things like - there's a lack of belief and support for rape victims/survivors to have a dignified investigation opened and receive support - that people are socialized to shame the survivor (what did you do to cause this, don't report it, etc) - that the legal system is hostile and makes criminal conviction difficult - that society does not do enough to shame or other punishment for suspected assailants - the rate of rape is very high If it's factors like these, th… | /r/MensRights | 10/07/26 07:06 PM |
| 9 | The "men commit most violent crimes" argument is so dumbIt's like 4% of the population is confirmed violent criminals.. So 96% of people aren't known to pose this risk. So if you don't know if someone is a violent criminal, and you say, "well, they're a man, so it's more likely", you're dumb, almost certainly. Because you have a near slam dunk if you just guess that person is in the 96% rather than the 4%. But the converse is different: if you already know someone is a confirmed violent criminal (and nothing else), then it's smart to guess that they … | /r/MensRights | 09/07/26 06:28 PM |
| 3 | Feminism uses "gender inequality" to distract from class inequalityUnfortunately, I am appalled and surprised at the extent "the masses" keep carrying water for the interests of the powerful, year in and year out. | /r/MensRights | 08/07/26 08:13 PM |
| 4 | Feminism uses "gender inequality" to distract from class inequalityFeminism uses "gender inequality" to distract from class inequality True, but feminism is actually a "small" part of this problem. Feminism is trying to create a perception that average man is in almost all aspects of life more privileged than average woman. Which not only isn't true, it's the opposite of truth. I'm not sure if the second statement is true. It might be, but I don't know. We can see that men tend to work more, hey sicker, use less welfare and healthcare and get fewer education be… | /r/MensRights | 08/07/26 07:24 PM |
| 5 | Do you think we have issues with how we treat our fellow manProbably yes. But first, men are different from women. They tend not to have the same level of interest in people. They might be more likely to bond through sort of play fighting which could accidentally (or intentionally) crowd out more vulnerable moments. They may value their social connections in part specifically because they are more unencumbered, etc ("I appreciate that we never have drama"). Of course these are broad generalizations. But the point is that there are clues about what comes … | /r/MensRights | 07/07/26 12:56 AM |

Do you have any idea how many adults and children are abused every day because "they don't seem to be doing badly enough"? You've decided that all people belonging to some race that you've chosen must automatically be more of a victim than others. Also how racist. You think that some races need your help.

| 2 | 40 Indicators of "Structural Discrimination Against Men"Comprehensive lists are very helpful! But still I think we can start with relatively unambiguous written policies that disadvantage men specifically for their sex or gender. In the US, this includes rape laws that only recognize vaginal penetration or penile penetration. It also includes college scholarships for female students despite women already performing better. Similar for research funding for female-specific conditions* although women have lower disease and live longer In international N… | /r/MensRights | 06/07/26 05:42 PM |

There are millions of disgusting people just like you; you and your hateful opinion are not unique and do not matter." But I'm not going to say that. https://hmd.org.uk/resource/first-they-came-by-pastor-martin-niemoller/ | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/07/26 05:23 PM |

| 1 | I find it Strange that people still call themselves feminists even though what they mean is egalitarianism100%. But I empathize because I think many in this sub actually believe in egalitarianism but find themselves here posting for "men's rights" because that's a workable vehicle for more concrete discussions. Similarly, I believe many "feminists" feel like "to achieve equality/equity, we need to push gendered interests to get there." Obviously the difference being 1) the largest feminist organizations are openly bigoted, 2) the institutional support for women's issues (eg research funding and publ… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 05/07/26 10:56 PM |
| 4 | How to respond to "men commit 90% of violent crimes, so it's okay to treat them differently"?You should treat them differently! We're taking about the 4% of the population who's confirmed to have committed violent crimes, right? So the remaining 96% doesn't deserve the different treatment. So, about 5% of men (and 2% of women) deserve to be treated differently. ...What were you taking about? ;-) | /r/MensRights | 05/07/26 09:42 PM |

| 4 | Good News: A New Study Finds Most Men Are Not ToxicBy the way, the paper still particulates in the usual bigoted garbage dressed up as academia When coining the phrase “toxic masculinity,” Shepherd Bliss emphasized a “part of the male psyche that is abusive” (D. Gross, 1990, p. 14; see also Harrington, 2021). In the post-#MeToo era, however, the term has expanded to capture a wide range of troubling attitudes and stereotypical behaviors in men, including the crude misogyny of Donald Trump (Sexton, 2020), serious threats to women from rape cultur… | /r/MensRights | 04/07/26 01:01 PM |

| 2 | Do other men feel dismissed by healthcare providers?Yeah, it's real. I suspect like 5-10% of mistreatment in care is direct misogyny/misandry, and that most of it is other bias (possibly correlating with gender, race, class, etc, but still distinct). The good news is this implies we can exert behavioral control. (FYI, an example of a gendered interpretation might be, "men tend to exhibit less trait agreeableness, so they may accidentally or intentionally aggravate the doctor through their communication style, resulting in less attention from the … | /r/MensRights | 03/07/26 01:41 PM |

"Female genital mutilation" is a recognized term both by the search engine itself and prominent international organizations like the world health organization and United nations/UNICEF. "Male genital mutilation" is generally not recognized by either the search engine or prominent organizations and additionally is actively challenged in both the search result contents as well as by the search engine i… | /r/MensRights | 14/05/26 07:12 PM |

I challenge you to bring a single observable, falsifiable fact to support your claims, u/Natural-Dealer-4131. OP: Personally, if you have this mindset of women are just children, I believe it’ll allow your interactions with women to be much more easier than treating them as adults.

Not sure the right answer here. But to be fair, it just falls into the broader category of "stranger danger" -- some unwell-looking person could try to mess with me or friends/family, or some rich lawyer's kid could jump/fall into the street or sidewalk where I'm walking or driving, or some person could make a false claim that I did something inappropriate to them (and get the police to come in… | /r/MensRights | 05/05/26 05:17 PM |

Overwhelmingly men and women have a similar experience (or difficulty) on the most important and basic issues of economics (which I recall an IMF report indicating that human well being and happiness is driven heavily by caloric intake and economics; hence economics is a decent proxy for well being).

| 4 | Juvenile foreskin amputation is a sensational atrocityThank you for taking the time to clarify. I don't have a formal background in the relevant law or medical practices, so I wanted to be upfront about my "layperson's" perspective since I think others might share it. So I appreciate the extra detail that often gets lost or "white washed." Regardless of the technical designations, I hope the broader society will see the practice as abusive and wrong. Also, thank you for raising the OP in the first place. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 01/05/26 07:12 PM |
| 6 | Juvenile foreskin amputation is a sensational atrocityI don't believe involuntary, medically unnecessary circumcision should meet the definition of "rape" (that's a prescriptive, not deceptive statement), but that it should plainly fall under assault, sexual assault, child abuse, etc. Why isn't it discussed? I don't know.

The USDA has an online questionnaire for food support eligibility that indicates you don't qualify if you're a man.

| 1 | I just found this on a suicide forumHmm. I recall a study showing about 4% of the sample had a criminal conviction for violent offenses, and that the ratio of male to female of that cohort was around 2.5:1.5, so 2.5 %age points (convicted male violent offenders) out of about 50% of the total population (male fraction) is about a 5% convict rate in the male group. Maybe the 3%age point difference occurs when including violent misdemeanor crimes (I assume those exist)?

They are treating the vast majority as an inherent problem due to the actions of a few.
