| 2 | Do you guys think feminism still encourages male gender roles?I can understand the idea of roles in sexual violence as gender roles so I actually agree with you. Feminism is very much about breaking gender roles for women and iconoclasty but every iconoclast needs an orthodoxy. In a broad sense, if the patriarchy as a structure blend with the people who are men in the theory - which is a distinct flaw in feminist theory, not differentiating the structure from the people who- then that patriarchal orthodox is a distinct gender role when only men can occupy … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 24/04/25 10:23 PM |
| 16 | Do you guys think feminism still encourages male gender roles?I don’t think feminism-the-political-theory necessarily pushes gender roles, but women definitely encourage and even rely on men performing masculine gender roles. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 24/04/25 05:25 PM |
| 35 | Why are trans women more targeted than trans men?Trans men and trans women are targeted by transphobia differently and one or the other is often elided because of how different the transphobia looks. Both are affected by both transmisogyny and transmisandry. Trans women are often directly attacked as making cis women unsafe and for threatening straight cis men’s sexuality. This often looks like direct performative violence from cis men and women. Trans men are often rendered invisible and treated as misguided girls who are incapable of even co… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 22/04/25 05:31 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1So then you are admitting you are not leftist and do not have any modern leftist resources? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 21/04/25 04:07 PM |
| -1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1The fact that you think anything modern is either going to be academic and correctly sourced and thus feminist (and feminist = bad) OR right wing or incorrectly sourced is rather telling about your stance. And left wing sources should be political as “left wing” refers to leftist politics. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 21/04/25 12:31 PM |
| -1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1lol you’re cute but that’s a working men’s group from 161 years ago but I guess you’re like most Marxist and don’t understand the passage of time. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 21/04/25 10:57 AM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1I repeat: you’re an idiot who thinks anyone with a degree doesn’t need to work for a living. It’s not as hominem when you’re an idiot for a specific argument you are espousing. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 06:06 PM |
| 2 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1I don’t actually have a problem with “the bourgeoisie” as it stands and the bourgeoisie in the USA in 2025 constitutes people who work for a living so that’s another false dichotomy. You’ve brought me no where. You are an idiot. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 05:35 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1I think if someone is writing a book about a subject they should have a background in that subject. Being a tour guide is not a credential to medieval sexuality. That doesn’t mean academia is the only venue, but being a tour guide is not a credential. For example, no issue reading about socialism from someone who has been a union organizer for 30 years. But you do seem to think that people with degrees are not working class which is pate toy false. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 05:01 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1lol You do love your binaries. Do you think people with degrees are not part of the working class? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 04:45 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1And most academics are not moneyed. But you do love a binary. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 04:26 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1Yeah I really don’t have the desire to read someone whose other claim to fame is a YouTube conspiracy channel or similar. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 04:10 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1As I would have acknowledged yours, but there isn’t any. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 04:01 PM |
| 0 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1lol. It’s not about liking the author. It’s about reviewing their background, their other works, their associates, where they have published, etc. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 04:00 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1The fact that you can only read malice says a lot about you. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 03:52 PM |

| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1So what standards do you use when looking at authors of political literature? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 03:36 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1It isn’t an insult. It’s a question. Many people who do not speak English as a primary language and are from non Western countries struggle with understanding the specific language of Western/US politic. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 03:36 PM |
| 0 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1As someone who has studied medieval literature and history, yes, I do not think I am going to learn from a tour guide. If you reject the entire idea of education, you are not someone whose opinion I care about anyway. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 03:03 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1Several. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 20/04/25 03:01 PM |

| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1National Coalition for Men was founded in 1977 and doesn’t identify as an MRA organization. Individuals within it may, but the organization does not. I cannot find an extant National Center for Men. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 06:42 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1So you don’t actually know anything about real feminist theory, you just hate it. That actually tracks. I know quite a bit about MRAs and their relationship with the radical alt right and their classification as hate groups. I have seen how they champion misogyny and the subjugation of women and hatred of trans people. Oh and the homophobia in some of those groups is quite profound as well. MRAs are not interested in actually addressing men’s issues, of which there are quite a bit - boys and men… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 06:37 PM |

| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1How many classes in feminist theory have you taken in a formal setting? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 06:19 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1What’s questionable about those claims? MRA is a hate group. It believes in male supremacy, male dominance, and female subjugation. If it isn’t, please provide documentation just as I have done. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 06:12 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1You’re the one trying to throw feminism out, no me bro. Feminist theory allows critique of feminist theory. Or are you under a delusion that all feminist agree on everything? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 06:11 PM |
| -2 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1MRA is specifically male supremacist and seeks to dominate and take rights away from women. It is in no way feminist and is a hate group. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 05:50 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1I am here to argue with idiots who would align us with the right wing, the transphobic “Stalin of feminism,” and men who believe in the right to sexually assault adults and molest children, yes. I am here to argue against those who would align with know hate groups, yes. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 05:49 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1You can make all the inferences you want, it doesn’t make them correct. I believe in civil rights for all genders. Anyone who self identifies with MRA - which is a self proclaimed male supremacist movement - does not believe in egalitarianism or rights for all genders. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 05:39 PM |

I didn’t say anything about feminism in that comment. I said authoritarian socialism exists. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 05:21 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1CHS literally self identifies as right wing my bro. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 05:19 PM |
| -1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1The same group that falsified names on its charity applications? The CAFE that denied being part of the men’s rights movement when interviewed by a reporter? That org? Bc I am very much in favor of DV resources being extended to men and can report that it’s actually a state policy where I live (less of a city policy) and progress is being made. But it isn’t being made by right wing grifters who lie about who they are, what they do, and their associates. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 05:04 PM |
| -1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1Peter Lloyd is a sometimes-tabloid-writer and does not appear to have any leftist credibility. Christina Hoff Summers is notable right wing as is her think tank. Rosalie Gilbert is a hobbyist historian with, again, no education or political background. Amartya Talukdar appears to be a far right guy. And Camille Paglia is a lot of things - I live in the same city, I’ve seen the controversies - but leftist she is not. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 04:57 PM |
| 0 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1Yes. You can be far right and a socialist - authoritarian socialism is a thing. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 04:53 PM |
| 1 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1None of the authors would be published by leftist organizations because they are all right wing. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 02:14 PM |
| 0 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1Are you aware that you are posting in a left wing sub? Because my argument was, primarily, that none of these authors are leftists. They are all quite conservative and at least two of them are considered bonkers by both the general public and the academy. Right wing MRA bullshit is right wing and anti-egalitarian and doesn’t belong here. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 11:39 AM |
| 2 | Good Reading for Men's Rights 1In The Myth of Male Power, the author argues for rolling back laws against sexual harassment and child molestation because feminism took that from men. The author of Who Stole Feminism is a resident scholar of the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think tank. The author of The War Against Boys is also a resident scholar of API. It is very curious that the author of The Very Secret Sex Lives of Medieval Woman lists tour guide experience and a museum membership, but actual educational … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/04/25 05:52 AM |
| 4 | What would it take to get the left side of the aisle in general to genuinely acknowledge and criticize double standards around men and gender roles?I think a lot of actual progressive and leftists are already in favor of this. Certainly large chunks of feminist theory (and queer theory) are in favor of this. That said, I have my doubts that “comment sections of TikTok proposal videos” are full of people who are eagerly reading Mariame Kaba and bell hooks, much less applying their theory to the comments they write. Additionally, most political polling in the US divides us into conservatives, moderates, and liberals. I would not consider most… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 15/04/25 06:14 PM |
| 1 | Misandrist feminism is a right-wing movement and it's time we stop treating these people as progressivesACAB Other than themselves, and even that’s conditional, I don’t think law enforcement treats any group or class well. The fact that they are trained to just see civilians as criminals is truly a problem. The fact that they target different groups differently just makes it easier to divide us over those differences. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 15/04/25 01:56 PM |
| 84 | Misandrist feminism is a right-wing movement and it's time we stop treating these people as progressivesThe crime statistics thing gets me every time. I can be talking to an otherwise leftist person, who is pro BLM and ACAB and defund the police and knows the problems of for profit prisons and prison statistics, and then as soon as sexual violence comes up they are fucking quoting the DOJ as if these numbers didn’t come from the same flawed institutions. I have one friend who finally came to the conclusion that we can’t talk about these topics after I told her, a data scientist, to take a look at … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 13/04/25 04:05 PM |
| 54 | Nobody talks about male prostitutes/sex workers, I want to hear more about them.Most of the men I have known who do sex work do it with other men. The people who care a great deal about harm to women generally do not care about queer men, men perceived as queer, or discerning between willing trade/survival sex work/straight men playing gay for pay. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 10/04/25 09:07 PM |

| 9 | Shared Culture and the Role of Culture in Funnelling Men and Women TogetherYes, children spend years learning their culture and social expectations, but children are not blanks to be hand molded by their parents and educators. If that was true, I would not be a trans man and it would not have been obvious in the 90s that I had some gender fuckery going on. And yet I am a trans man and even though we didn’t have the word “transgender,” none of my peers thought I was just a normal girl. * That said, I don’t think the lack of shared television media is the problem.

| 1 | Much like how Sarah Everard was the "perfect" crime for feminists to capitalize on when it comes to women's safety in public, what would be the equivalent for anti-misandrists along the lines of men being falsely accused or misinterpreted?Oh, I am already anticarceral. I don’t think jail or prison time would improve social outcomes with sexual offenders. Yeah, it is really telling that we are a violent, reactive society in the US who feel that locking people in cages, separating them from their communities and families, and renting them as slave labor is a great way to respond to people who violate our laws and sexual offenders rarely experience those consequences. It strongly suggests that we - and our legal system - generally d… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/04/25 08:09 PM |
| 6 | I noticed accusing someone of weaponizing their oppression is only consider ok when the topic is about how women have it worse on the left.Interesting. The way I was taught is that all of the various forms of oppression - racism, misogyny, ageism, colorism, ableism, homophobia, Islamophobia, etc - intersect. They are all forms of oppression and no one form is the “original” or base form of oppression. They all oppress. And they don’t stack. When we engage in stacking forms of oppression like stats in a TTRPG, we have moved on to the Oppression Olympics where we are trying to prove who is the most oppressed and worthy of the gold me… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 03/04/25 11:40 PM |
| 1 | I noticed accusing someone of weaponizing their oppression is only consider ok when the topic is about how women have it worse on the left.That’s just the common mistake that intersectionality is the Oppression Olympics. Intersectionality isn’t about stacking rates of oppression like you’re trying to build the worst TTRPG character. “Someone has it worse than you so your oppression doesn’t matter” is not intersectionality. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 03/04/25 12:13 PM |
| 17 | Much like how Sarah Everard was the "perfect" crime for feminists to capitalize on when it comes to women's safety in public, what would be the equivalent for anti-misandrists along the lines of men being falsely accused or misinterpreted?I do not consider the Brock Turner case to be “milked.” He is a perfect example of a white college athlete being caught in the act and still not being punished for it. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 31/03/25 01:29 AM |
| 5 | I'm tired of the hateI realized I was trans in 2004, so before modern social media and way before “men are trash” became a meme. I did end up in radical feminism for about a year, primarily because a group of radical feminists were some of the only people who provided practical support when I got out of an abusive relationship but it was pretty toxic as they performed the same transphobia as my abuser. (I was a very pretty girl and he didn’t want me to transition. Neither did the radical feminists.) That said, I am … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 28/03/25 12:31 PM |
| 32 | I'm tired of the hateI am a trans man. I actually blame social media for a lot of it, although the privileges that some women have (race, color, class, education, etc) does have a distinct nuance to it. When I have talked to my female and non binary friends about “kill all men” or “all men are trash,” it often hashes out in a weirdly specific way: they feel that they are venting about the harms that men (specific men or men as a class) have done to them and I feel that venting is fine but that’s generally something … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/03/25 05:03 PM |
