I think the way you should look at this group is that primarily its a group advocating for men's rights from a left wing perspective / slant. However, MaleLeftWingAdvocates does not flow as nicely as "LeftWingMaleAdvocates" does.. Also I would say that the group is not strictly "Left Wing" as i'm sure there are many centrist / or left of center people here and even a few disenfranchised Right Wing people.. The point is.. we don't want this place to become an echo chamber by limiting it to strict…

While I agree women absolutely have done that, would debate to the end of time the majority of people who do this and engage in this behavior are men. I disagree, I think men and women engage in this at equal rates to be honest with you. I am always baffled at how often men refuse to seek out support through male support groups, therapy, group therapy, There are many men who attempt therapy but it does not work for them Mainly because Therapy has been tailored to suite / meet the needs of women …

The hotline points out that Straat did not make any offensive remarks about white men. “The call only concerned one short, one-off mosh pit for these groups. Visitors were not refused entry to the concert.” Discriminatie.nl will not take any further steps at this time. That's how it starts though.. it ALWAYS starts with "one short / one-off" instance of sexism / racism.. Then emboldened by the fact that they faced no consequences for it previously it keeps escalating until we're told "This is si…

Anywho - what I tend to see happen is… women will be sharing experiences of pain and suffering with one another about let’s say being molested by a male uncle, cousin, or being raped by a close male friend, etc. This would be an inappropriate time to insert yourself in the conversation and say things such as “men get raped and molested too.” And i've seen the opposite happen as well where a bunch of men are discussing the Male Suicide rate and a woman butts into the conversation with "But women …

Bringing attention to the psychological harm of patriarchy on men (e.g. bell hooks) So.. blaming men for the psychological harm we as men face? Generally fighting against gender roles, which includes liberating men from limiting roles and harmful stereotypes Except for gender roles that benefit women.. like say, expecting men to pay for all dates, or to be protectors of women etc.. They don't seem to keen on dismantling those particular gender roles... In a counter argument to you OP.. Feminists…

I can't! You have proven to me that your dick and balls and your bruised ego are more important to you than the love for a child you raised! I am the psychotic one?! Why are you constantly placing ALL RESPONSIBILITY AND BLAME ON MEN!? Seriously.. I have YET to see you acknowledge that women are even responsible in the first place in these situations...

Firstly, I'd like to say BIG kudos to you for taking the time to crunch the numbers there. I also love how your numbers are overly generous towards the misandristic feminist perspective.. But even with that generosity.. it still confirms what i've been saying for decades now: "Ultimately the majority of sexual based crimes are caused by what is actually less than 1% of ALL men" Now, I expect that once this post starts getting cross posted to different subs, you WILL get feminists trying to tear …

Or when a woman comes home to find her partner cheating on her and she gets a knife or shears and cuts off his genitals.. People will often praise her actions with "Yas Kween!" or "Well clearly that was a valid response" Yet.. if you reverse the genders and it was a man coming home to find his partner cheating on him and then he mutilated her genitals for it.. there would be ZERO justification for it and he would be expected to be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law...

I've seen this happen.. A man being attacked by a woman on the streets, people stand there recording / laughing and saying "I wonder what HE did for her to attack him like that" or "He must have done something to deserve it" etc.. Yet, flip the genders and say the exact same thing would be called out as misogynistic hate speech.. and people would say that there is NEVER any justification for violence against women..

It is depraved of a man to abandon a child that is not 'his' by blood but whom he has previously, up until that moment, allegedly 'loved' and cared for. For years.

Ah yes.. the whole "I don't want to raise future rapists and so its perfectly acceptable to considering aborting the child all together" argument..

This is something I bring up all the time..

‘misandry’ is supposedly ‘exponentially higher’ because misandry is characterised by misogynists as feminism or feministic ideologies a person holds. Misandry is not systematic. Misandry is the direct response to systematic misogyny, the patriarchy and systems discriminating and oppressing women. You seem to be implying here that Misandry can ONLY flow in the direction of women towards men..

In America, if men want to exercise the right to vote, or get a drivers license or get federal aid (Student loan) or a federal job they MUST also agree to be drafted.. Women get all of those benefits without any of the associated responsibilities.. Also there was a bill recently that would have made it mandatory for women to also be drafted.

A man can not KNOW with 100% confidence that a child is his.. A woman ALWAYS knows that the child is 100% hers If a man is told by a woman, "We had a one night stand, I got pregnant and the child is yours" he has no way of knowing that to be true except for a paternity test being done. TL;DR: If a woman expects a man to pay for a child a paternity test should be require to prove the child is his, if the child is his then he should step up and be responsible for the child. If the test result is t…

And then ask them: "Does that mean its okay to discriminate against black men and treat all black men as violent criminals?" They will get upset / offended because they know that stance would make them a racist. But don't let up, tell them that if that makes them a racist, then taking a step back and treating ALL men as violent criminals makes them a Misandrist The…

"Believe all women" should be more along the lines of "Don't simply dismiss a woman's claims" However the accusation its self should not be allowed to be used as evidence. There's a saying: "Trust, but verify" Essentially take what someone says at face value but verify what they have told you is correct before you take action.. And look, yes, there absolutely are going to be cases where a man is a violent abuser and the woman is divorcing him. However, The courts need to be ensuring that any acc…

So this should be labeled and recorded as Androcide right? After all, the killer clearly has admitted that her hatred of men was a direct causal link to his death.. So now we get to go on a moral panic about "Androcide" and insisting that women who kill men have committed Androcide and should be punished harsher than just standard murder right? Because that is absolutely how feminists seem to be treating "Femicide" by implying that every single time a man kills a woman her gender is a massive co…

Has the thought crossed your mind that the reason men don’t get as much support as women because we don’t have an organized structure teaching people about men’s struggles and advocating for better rights without bringing up women in the conversation? If you all here would focus on your own issues and find ways to help men in ways that wouldn’t involve or hurt women, I think it’d be a lot more useful. The problem is, we are only allowed to discuss the issues we as men face so long as we do it "T…

Feminists are always complaining about "The Pay Gap" or how the majority of CEO's / board members are men (aka "The Glass Ceiling") And so they push for quotas for women to be put into higher levels of business / government etc..

Absolutely! Even worse is the fact that we as men are not allowed to use our previous bad experiences with women shape or perception of women as a whole (That's misogynistic) Yet we are constantly bombarded by "Well if you ask any woman you know they will tell you they have experienced violence at the hands of men" and this is thusly used as a perfectly reasonable justification for women to be cautious or wary of "ALL" men...

If she shoots him with a gun or slams into him with a car that strength differential does not matter at all You also under estimate how often women will hire "Other Men" to inflict violence for them.. Once again.. in those cases where a woman hires a man to hurt another man for her the strength differential between her and the man she want's harmed does not matter becau…

You don't get it at all.. Your concept of "Free Speech" is that you can say absolutely anything you want and no one is allowed to do anything about it. When that is not true at all. As I said, claiming "Free Speech" will NOT protect you from someone inflicting violence upon you for the things you have said. As I then pointed out, if that happens the person is also not protected from being arrested, charged and convicted for what they did.. But my point still stands.. "Free Speech" is not a magic…

Sure, there are some undertones there like Skeletor being an obvious example of "Toxic Masculinity" or even Adam's father also being an example of it.. But through all of that it was still an enjoyable movie and there were enough references and nods to the fanbase that I was pleasantly surprised

Are we also arguing about semantics regarding the other gendered terms feminists have / continue to use? - Toxic MASCULINITY - MANsplaining - MANspreading - MANterrupting - MANkeeping - The MALE Gaze Please kindly explain how all of those are perfectly legitimate terms which only apply to men and thus need to be gendered after men

I mean do you accept that there is (and certainly was) a need to look at systemic issues specifically affecting women? I think if you can see that there are systemic issues facing men then it's not too much of a stretch to see that there are/were different issues affecting women in a similar way. Sure, I agree that there are systemic issues specifically affecting women and a need to look into those I hear what you are saying here. The reason for the name is because feminism is specifically inter…

Respectfully I disagree.. Despite the "Claims" of feminists regarding feminism being a "Movement for equality" I feel that it will never be the case.. If the end goal is equality, why is the name of the movement gendered after women? Surely if equality is the main goal then the label of the movement should be gender neutral to reflect the stated outcomes of the movement right? That has always been the bait and switch.. Feminists make the claim about feminism being about equality or being for men…

Why use the feminist label at all? If you believe in the concept of gender equality then simply say that you are an egalitarian.. But sadly, if you do.. you'll find that most women who identify as feminists will denounce you for it. In their minds if you are not a "Feminist" you are "The Enemy"

Oligarchy is indeed closer to the truth..

They would still hyper fixate on the "Patriarchal" part and we wouldn't be any further off..

If I want love / affection I can get that from a cat or a dog Why would I ever think of dating a woman when she can ruin my life with a single accusation? or if we end up in a relationship and get married she can divorce me, take half my stuff, half my savings and potentially force me to be a walking A…

He's later vindicated but I remember when it came out there was A LOT of blow back from many women / feminists who claimed that the anime is making it seem like false accusations are common..

And yet, when someone falsely accuses someone else of a different crime like Theft for example it doesn't carry the same weight or social stigma that the accusation of rape does.. It also doesn't help that those who make false accusations very rarely if ever face any actual repercussions from doing so. The legal system is so heavily skewed and biased in the favor of women that it allows women to raise false accusations and get away with them. Usually the only time a woman faces consequences is w…

Rape laws should be gender neutral, but they aren't.. Men are treated as lesser victims when they are abused sexually..

I am all for holding GUILTY men accountable.. However for a man to be GUILTY there needs to be evidence. And an accusation by itself is not evidence...

I'd agree that if it by definition isn't a crime when women do it, then absolutely that's a disparity, but I am not familiar with this in most modern systems The United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand to name a few. The point i'm making is that "Rape" is a crime that is seen as a crime that ONLY MEN can commit So of course that's going to influence the statistics right? Women are th…

The first and most important thing: The left needs to stop blaming men for everything! We are constantly being bombarded about how all the ills in the world today are caused by: "The Patrriarchy" or "Toxic Masculinity" or simply "Men" And then, The Left acts all completely shocked when men who are tired of being vilified, generalized and demonized over and over and over again are radicalized and pushed into the open arms of The Right wing.. Why would any man want to support The Left wing's obvio…

bc rape is seen as one of the very serious crimes Except if you are a man of course. In many / most countries the crime of "Rape" is specifically defined / gender coded to be a crime that ONLY men can commit... How can we label it a "Serious crime" when we define it in such a way to say "You as a man can only be a rape victim if the person raping you shares your gender" and bc men (as far as I’m aware) do more rapes than women This is mostly due to the fact that as I said above, the crime of rap…

The other excuse used is "Toxic Masculinity" where one of the women in the relationship is "Pressured" into taking on the "Patriarchal, Male gender roles" which in turn causes them to be more violent / controlling.. But of course that still doesn't explain away the fact that gay men experience the lowest rates of domestic violence.. Though i'm sure they would probably hand wave it away with the "Men are less likely to report their abuse" Which is convenient for them but then it opens up another …

We as MRA's however openly bring up the fact that in for example the Justice system not only are men as a whole disadvantaged or out right biased against.. but it's even worse for black men. Are you really proposing that we erase black male victims from the narrative? If so that says a W…

This is a common rebuttal I see a lot of MRA conservatives types use. But I noticed that a lot of feminists try to find a cleaver way by deflecting this argument. By saying that violence in the black community is being done by black men. And black men are still men. So therefore it's still men's fault. Proving their point about men being statistically violent. I disagree, in my experience most feminists refuse to respond when you bring up black on black crime because they realize that the argume…

For example, I recall one time I heard the phrase frequently used to sum up a problematic attitude was in response to the judge's comments about Brock Turner being a "promising young man with a bright future" or whatever it was exactly that he said during his sentencing for having sex with a passed out woman. The irony here is when Lavinia Woodward stabbed her boyfriend with a bread knife while intoxicated was spared going to jail for her violent crime because she was "an aspiring heart surgeon"…

Yes, there has traditionally been a problem with people dismissing sexual harassment and assault of women with a "boys will be boys" attitude, and that is a problem that should be addressed. I have never once in my life heard of women being sexually harassed / assaulted dismissed with "Boys will be Boys" The only people i've heard use that phrase in that context are women / feminists. And i'm disgusted that they have co-opted and twisted the phrase for their own agenda. When I was growing up the…

I'm interested in research-based explanations and whether reforms are being considered. I don't have any research on hand at the moment but, despite the obvious sentencing disparities between men and women, in the UK there are people pushing for women to not be given jail sentences and for women's prisons to be closed completely. The funny thing is, the arguments they use to justify their position equally apply to many men who are sentenced to prison. Yet despite that the focus in the UK is how …

They also ignore the fact that women are more likely to use less lethal attempts and thus are more likely to survive their attempts. Those women can then go on to attempt again and again.. and each and every "attempt" is counted as legitimate. Men on the other hand tend to use more lethal means and so they don't usually get / need multiple attempts. This in turn skews the numbers and thus their common rebuttal of "But women ATTEMPT it more!"

Well, when it comes to the crime of rape it pays to remember that in many countries and states in the USA the crime is specifically defined or gendered to be a crime that ONLY MEN can commit.. The definitions often go along the lines of: "An individual is guilty of rape if Person A is penetrated by Person B's genitals without Person A's consent" And because men are the only gender with genitals that "penetrate" its rather implicit that only men can be guilty of this crime no? So with that in min…

Partially true.. What you are missing here is the fact that those taxes we all "equally" contribute to are not used equally. There are more tax funded programs / services which either exist exclusively for women are are primarily accessed by women compared to the same for men..

I get where you are coming from I really do.. But, think about how many men there are out there who are ordered by the court to pay child support but are too poor to keep up with the payments.. They don't get a break and are told to pay up or they have their drivers license revoked or even their passport suspended or they get arrested and sent to jail.

Sure.. but lets not pretend like the system is equal or fair.. Women who have to pay child support can and often do get away with refusing to pay and do not typically face the same consequences a man who refuses to or can not afford to does. Women are less likely to have their drivers license revoked or their passport flagged or even have a warrant issued for their arrest for failure to pay child support.

I would add to the list the fact that in many if not most western countries the crime of "Rape" is specifically defined / gender coded to be a crime that only men can commit. Which then means that if a woman rapes a man, he can not seek the same level of justice against her that a woman could to a man who rapes her. Worse, because the crime is gender coded if a man even attempts to accuse a woman she can pull an UNO reverse card and simply claim he raped her.

And everyone already has the option to do civilian service instead. You can even pay a tax and do neither, which will easily pay for itself if you are an above average earner. Clearly not.. given the fact that in Switzerland women are not only exempt from military duty.. but they don't have to do any other sort of civilian service nor do they have to pay a tax if they are incapable or unwilling to do so... So how can "everyone" have the option when that simply isn't the case?

The problem with your statement is that you equate "An appointment of a pregnant person" to being an appointment which only involves the women / mother to be. But the key thing here is that it also involves the baby growing inside so the appointment isn't exclusively about the woman is it? Ergo, why should it be weird for the soon to be father to want to be there to be involved / find out the progress of their soon to be child?

Yep, when its a man having a one night stand its "Use a condom" or "Accept the consequences of your actions!"

Being physically stronger is only a slight advantage. Being on average physically stronger doesn't make a man immune to being stabbed with a knife, run over by a car or shot by a gun.

We've heard for decades from feminists how feminism is "A movement for equality" and how feminism is "For men too" They also love to claim "Equality is not a zero sum game" But all of these statements are lies and obfuscations. When we ask what feminism is doing for the issues we as men face, given their claims about being for "Equality" and "Men Too" we would expect them to also fight for …

As you said, the issues are often minimized or hand waved away with "Oh that's just The Patriarchy backfiring" or "And who setup the system in the first place? Men!" or "By other Men" The idea is to victim blame and shame men for their own issues while dismissing them as "Lesser" and reminding everyone that "Women's issues" are more important.

What does Donald Trump being the current president of the United States have to do with anything? He is ONE man True he's in the highest position of authority in the United States but that doesn't magically mean that ALL men share that level of power does it? Nor does it mean that his actions are a reflection of every other man in the world? If you want to go down that road and want to hold men accountable for the actions of specific men like Donald Trump, then that would mean that we would have…

"When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression," is a common phrase slung at men speaking up for themselves. However, when I am talking to men who live in the society feminists scrutinize, I see anything but privilege. If anything, it seems more likely the people saying this phrase like a mantra are the ones with privilege, and are using it to beat down men who are worse off than them into silence by using shame and gaslighting them into thinking they're oppressors.

The point you are missing here is.. the definition of things like "Misogyny" and "Patriarchy" and "Toxic Masculinity" etc keep changing on a day by day basis. Feminists in the UK have pushed for "Misogyny" to be classified as a hate crime and even as a terrorist act. Yet Misandry is apparently perfectly normal, perfectly understandable and is simply "Reactionary" to Misogyny according to them. And as I said the threshold for what constitutes "Misogyny" seems to change based on what each individu…

But are the crime statistics ACTUALLY an accurate metric of what happens? or could there be some bias within the statistics? Feminists love to tout out the "Violent Crime" and "Rape" statistics as if they are the unblemished truth of everything.. Because the statistics fit their narrative of "Men are rapists and…

It’s also a known fact that around 1% of all reported sexual assaults are false accusations. The hardship anybody has to go through to report a sexual assault is far too extreme to warrant a higher rate. I'm sorry but FUCKING WHAT!? Many legal systems literally make it EASY for women to level false accusations against men. Add onto the fact that women who DO falsely accuse men often face next to no actual consequences for their false accusations. Just think of how often during divorce, women wil…

And what would you say to us focusing on the hundreds if not thousands of men who have been falsely accused of rape by women? Are all of those "single instances" or are they representative of a pattern? If you are wanting us as men to hold men accountable for their actions, words and crimes then equally we should expect women and feminists to hold women accountable to the same standard no? Is that not "Equality"?

The thing is women have actually been oppressed and have issues relating or caused by men. So women who falsely accuse men of rape is not a issue men face that is caused by women? Or women committing paternity fraud? I guess this too is also an issue that isn't caused by women? look at any statisti for violence and you’ll see a vast majority of them are by men and domestic violence is way more common for men to do to women than the other way around. And if you look at the statistics with critica…

Also, its funny how many of the generalizations they make about men fall apart the moment you change the characteristic being generalized. For example "Men are rapists" which is considered an "Acceptable" statement amongst feminists would be considered racist if they said "Black people are rapists" or "Muslims are Rapist" both of those statements would be considered wrong, offensive and problematic. But its okay when the target is men.

The whole "Prejudice / Hatred + Power" thing is a convenient shield they use all the time.
