Stupid human does not understand humor that he opened himself up to by being ignorant of how memories and brains work. Also uses "like a feminist" cliche then gets mad when I don't play along with his games because he has shown himself to be ignorant. Duly noted.

It's a common phenomenon, especially in these cases. I mean, it's along the same lines as "recovered memories". It's a real problem with children and part of the reason it's hard to swear them as witnesses. Think the girl who tries to tell mom that mom's boyfriend raped her. She knows mom won't believe her when she says who did it. So she says it was the neighbor. She's afraid of what happens if she changes her story after mom calls the cops. So she keeps lying. And the more she lies, the easier…

This situation makes me want the book thrown at her. She has a child via surrogate, then before the child is born she divorces the father and says she doesn't want the kid anymore. Sorry, sucks to be you, that's not how shit works when you use a surrogate. And the kid is sick, for fuck's sake. Pay the damn bills if you're too selfish to be the kid's mom.

That doesn't work very well, at least in my experience. Then again, I'm female so they think they should own me. And since OP is gay, they probably also think they should own him. Because, you know, feminism wants that hivemind going so people with actual spines terrify them.

Gawd, I hate how much these things get into flipsides of a coin and interpretations of the way society looks at things. First patriarchy theory versus gynocentricism theory and now this. Granted, I think this is far more believable than the feminist narrative of "Homophobia is misogyny because men are acting like women and that's bad to the patriarchy." But at the same time, they're going to just run these things in circles.

Honestly, those type of girls often will pick any little criteria to criticize a man. They're like the epitome of misandry.

Oh gag me you sexist, apparently illiterate pig. No, I don't believe in "tradition if it favors women". I believe in allowing people to keep some traditions that aren't fucking harmful. Getting engaged is something many girls dream about their entire lives and if you're combining finances or even just living together, why the fuck does it actually matter who pays? Let people have something symbolic. I don't believe spending 3 months wages on an engagement ring is right. If my boyfriend did that,…

Not true. I hate diamonds with a passion. Diamonds are the main cost of a typical engagement ring. I also am, in the words of the man I love "The most frugal person [he] know[s] and I don't like super expensive jewelry. So I told him initially that I didn't want him spending more than $200-$300 and he negotiated his way to a limit of $500-$600. For his ring, I plan on having a custom ring made that will come in at about $350. So please, tell me again how my plan is unfair. Not everyone wants som…

You can be all of those things and still like a traditional symbol. Granted, I hate diamonds and have always maintained that any man who proposes to me with a diamond would hear a "No" because he obviously wouldn't have known me well enough to get married. Note: There is a sole exception to the diamond rule when the stone has a special meaning such as having belonged to his grandmother.
/r/MensRights19/10/16 06:14 AM

So, the way I've framed it with my beloved is that I'll buy his ring and he'll buy mine. Because I know he wants to be the one to propose (and he wants to choose the time we get officially engaged), I'll be buying his ring after he proposes to me. Either way, I don't believe the cost should be split. That sounds incredibly silly. That's just not how these things go. It doesn't feel right. And, I mean, if you're getting married, all of your money is going the same place in the end. Let her have t…

Sofia Vergara had an ongoing legal battle with an ex related to frozen embryos that he wanted to bring to term. There was another case to the same effect that I can't seem to find which is how the Sofia Vergara case was brought to my attention. Also, I'd imagine that the original contract in this case was signed when the woman was in an altered mental state, which is how I imagine that it was invalidated. And, honestly, I can't blame the judge for invalidating that contract.

Cases have arisen where frozen embryos have been wanted by the man who later (by no fault of his own) became sterile and I supported his right to have them every time. It'd be hypocritical not to support this woman.

Being the majority of the electorate means shit when the majority is not an overwhelming majority. You're using the same logic that feminists do to say that we live in a patriarchy because men are the majority of politicians. Except men ARE the overwhelming majority of politicians so that argument would actually be more sound.

Since you didn't comprehend the insult, you're acting like a male feminist who was told that somebody doesn't agree with him. Anyway, you're the one claiming that I said the only way to happiness is through a woman's validation when that is not what I said. I said that relationships are a chance at happiness. That doesn't mean it's the only chance at happiness, just that it is one chance. And to deny yourself one of your chances because you're too afraid is cowardly. Now, how about you get your …

Lack of trust is different from distrust in common usage. In distrust, you are wary of their words and actions. It is the opposite of trust, not the absence of it. Lack of trust is neutral. To distrust all blindly is as foolish as trusting at blindly. Also, just because a majority of voters are female doesn't mean shit. If 52% of voters are women, 48% are still men. So of 1 million voters, 520k are women, 480k are men. If 400k men and 120k women vote for XX measure, it doesn't matter that the ma…

In practice, it's often incredibly Red Pill and woman-hating. Instead of just not participating in marriage or long-term relationships, they often end up simply attacking women under the guise of attacking societal sexism. Plus, the theory is just bad.

And the US is plenty good at raising all-volunteer armies for conflicts it needs to be fighting.

This is my favorite: The belief that women like jerks contains hints of misogyny because it stems from the stereotype that women want to be dominated and controlled. No. Women like being able to "save" or "fix" a bad boy. That's the stereotype that I grew up hearing. Women want to date bad boys as an expression of how much control they can exert over the man they are dating.

This has nothing to do with being PC. It has to do with not being a cunt. It has to do with accepting nuance. Most men may find thin women attractive, but that does not mean they don't also find women who aren't thin attractive.

Men who find "overweight" or fat women attractive are not some tiny segment of the population. "Overweight" by what standard? BMI is a crock of shit and encompasses …

Correlation is not causation, though. Just because women are the ones in the lower paying field does not mean that it is lower-paying because women dominate the field. It is at least as likely that men are drawn to higher-paying fields out of a need to feel like they can provide while women are more drawn to fields they like without regard for the salary.

Even when you have feminist-funded research done, the largest gap that can be found is about 6% to 8%.

Xanax pills are often called bars. After looking it up, it's because the "ideal" ones are 2 mg pills which are shaped like a bar and indented so you can break them into 4 half-mg pieces.

The same bullshit type of studies have been done by Muslim doctors. There are many types of FGM, including simply the removal of the analogous structure to the male foreskin (I believe it's FGM type 1A according to the WHO). In both males and females, this removal inhibits proper genital function. And, no, I have not been circumcised because it is illegal to mutilate my genitals in my country and I believe every other first world country.

I'll bet you there is a "medical benefit" of some sort for FGM comparable to the "medical benefits" of MGM. Neither of them justifies cutting the normally-functioning genitals of an infant.

Clitoral hood. I said that, yes? The clitoral HOOD is a little flap of skin that at least partially covers the clitoris. It protects the sensitive clitoris just like the foreskin protects the head of the penis. They are analogous structures and the removal is basically the same procedure when it comes down to it. Also, I don't know about other women, but the clitoris is definitely not the "seat of pleasure" for me.

Except that most of the Middle East's problems so far as their treatment of women are about valuing women far too highly. Societies basically revolve around being married to the right fucking woman. The reason that women are so restricted by men in places like Saudi Arabia is because anything they do is seen as their closest male relative's fault. It's not Aliya's fault she did something wrong, it's her father's fault. Cultures are gynocentric because it makes sense evolutionarily. It's not inhe…

Gynocentrism implies that women oppress men. Gynocentricism means that society is built to benefit women, not that women oppress men. It's not that women oppress men, it's that people have built a society (actually many societies) that disproportionately benefits women.

There's no reason to bleed while on birth control. It's just a "mercy bleed". For some reason most women actually feel better getting light periods because of birth control than getting no period. Whereas I was glad when my doctor went "Yeah, I'm going to give you 5 boxes of birth control patches for your 15 week trip." I probably won't have periods while I'm in Europe, yay.

So did everybody in my major until we actually started talking about market structures. It's a big difference between how economists views free markets and how the public does, I believe. Many people do say "free market" meaning "unregulated market" and they don't realize just how bad an unregulated market is.

I study economics? A free market is determined by the amount of competition that takes place in the market. A market with perfect competition is the free-est type of market. Unfortunately, those don't exist in reality. But, no, laissez-faire is an unregulated market, not a free market. Unregulated markets are pretty terrible for everyone.

Women who can't pay child support go to special homes. Men who can't pay child support go to prison. That isn't the claim.

To take possession of something without the consent of the owner is theft. The phone belongs to the child's mother if the phone is on her cell phone plan.

That's also the handicapped restroom...So what you actually need is for a man in a wheelchair to go there with his female caretaker and go "We can't really to go into the larger restroom, we need to use this one." It shows the issue with this immediately. I mean, it also works if you have a woman in a wheelchair with a male caretaker, but I think man-in-wheelchair shows the idiocy of closing off the handicapped bathroom to men.

I take issue with your definition of rape. There doesn't need to be use of force, there doesn't need to be threat of force, there just needs to be a lack of consent. Seriously, saying "Stop" and being told "No" (which is an acknowledgement that they fucking heard the "Stop") is fucking rape whether you're being held down, threatened, or neither.

Also, there are separate dots for "Education", "Secondary Education", "Elementary Education", "Early Childhood Education", and "Special Education". Secondary Ed has an IQ higher than Business, Accounting, Agriculture, Psychology, and Health & Medical Sciences in addition to all the other Education ones. Also, I'm going to laugh at the …

I'd argue that it's neither misogynistic nor misandristic. Strict Islamic societies oppress everybody. Men, women, boys, girls, they all suffer due to the system. The expectations of the family leave many men feeling hopeless and desperate. The family's control over their marriage is a large factor. Imagine loving a woman more than anything but your parents tell you that you can never see her again because she has the wrong family name. Islam seems to perpetuate strict gender roles, however it m…

He got out over 10 years ago on parole. Then he violated parole by getting a DUI. Edit: I looked at the pardon and it says he was given ten years for the attempted rape charge and forty for the abduction charge with fifteen years suspended. The sentences were consecutive, though. So fifty years total and he initially got out in August 2004 which meant that he'd gotten out after less than 18 years.

I'm pretty sure we're at the point where we can't get much more anti-rape education out there. We need to actually remind people to be careful. Remind women that acting like victims leaves them more vulnerable than just having some fucking confidence. Remind people that putting themselves into certain situations is f…

That still doesn't mean that sometimes people put themselves in bad situations. I mean, I hate saying it, but some people open themselves up to being victimized by where they are, how they carry themselves, and what they wear. It's like Hannah Graham. No, she shouldn't have been abducted, assaulted, and killed. But you can't deny that what she was wearing was a reason she was chosen as a victim. She was dressed like an 18 year old girl does when she goes out. Her murderer saw she was alone, knew…

I just knew from the start that she didn't know what she was talking about so I figured that kinda ignoring her for bugging me when I was busy was the best option. The president of my sorority is in the same club as that girl and the friends who were with her (all giving me disgusted looks) and she apparently was like bragging about yelling at me or something. I find the pres's reaction hilarious because she's just like "You're that girl? Girl, I can't be seen with you when you wear that."

While this is all fine and dandy, they kinda imply that men are only raped by women when the woman is stronger by saying "men may be unable to ward off an attack". It seems that women more often use fear rather than strength to rape men. The fear that nobody will believe him, the fear that she'll say he raped her. Women manipulate their victims.

The good part is that there's a bit of truth. Ludacris does have primary custody of the child. And it is because they deemed him better fit.

It would be kind of amazing if, in the US at least, rape was considered as something that was mainly done by your partner in the 60s/70s considering it wasn't until the 70s that marital rape was actually considered a thing.

No. After the marriage is processed, the ring is the property of the wearer/giftee. Though in the case of annulments, there probably is a grey-area. From what I know, in a divorce, the ring is a pre-marital gift exempt from divorce proceedings UNLESS it was altered during the course of the marriage. If altered keeping the original stone, the stone's value is exempt while the rest is a marital asset. If the entire ring is replaced the ring is entirely a marital asset.

As to number 3, I'll point out that, in the US, an engagement ring is a conditional gift. The condition is a marriage. Just be sure to propose on a completely random day.

It seems to be implied that he was on a comparable level to a town drunk in stature and that's why they don't focus on him. They're trying not to speak ill of the dead, but what they want to say is "Why the heck was she with HIM?!" Then, you know, there's the fact that the community loves her. It's a small town thing.

I'm going to go all Economics major on you and point out that quantity demanded rises and falls with price, not Demand. Demand changes when a Ceterus Paribus Assumption changes. Also, ladies' night reasoning comes straight out of my first microecon class. It's called price discrimination and it's based on willingness to pay. If there was a way in which it covered a cost, it wouldn't be discrimination, but it does not and by the nature of the reasons it is done, it is price discrimination.

I think it's more ridiculous (and offensive) to say "metrosexual" men were trying to look like women. First off, as a woman, most metro men spend more time on their appearance than I do. Second, it is offensive to everyone to act as if showing people that you care about your appearance is a woman's thing. Basically, the entire article is laced with a superiority complex and he is degrading other men for their appearance, lifestyle, and sexuality.

Has nobody ever been to the South? Where "sweetie" and "darling" are perfectly common and can be gender-neutral depending on who is talking? I have a female friend who calls everyone "darling". I call everyone "honey" or "hon" or "sweetie". Those things could not be more generic where I'm from. And the only issues I've had with saying them are when international students at my college don't understand. Yes, some of the comments are a bit annoying, but they aren't, in any way, harassment.

The "somebody's acknowledging you" thing is a very valid point, even if it's said somewhat rudely. All she had to do is wave or nod politely and he'd probably have left her alone. When somebody says something kind to you, not acknowledging them is rude.

She ripped his jeans. Like, she ripped them wide open because she was holding onto him so tight that he couldn't move his leg. You want to touch, fine, that's what he walks out there for, so he can touch hands. But you don't grab his leg, especially not the hole in his jeans.

Nursing isn't just difficult physically but emotionally depending on where you work. I mean, if you're an oncology nurse or a trauma nurse, you have to get used to people dying. You have to get used to the "Could I have done more? Could I have saved them?" questions. You deal with families who may blame you for their loved one's death.
