| 1 | Stay informed. Use statistics to debate SJWs: CDC report on prevalence and distribution of sexual and domestic violence in the USInteresting thought. Can you expand on this? Do you think the CDC is manipulating data or committing outright fraud? The methodology seemed pretty robust, but I don't have a lot of experience in this area -- is it possible that the experimental design is flawed? Although the data surprised me, I'm trying not to have an emotional reaction to it. That is such a SJW thing to do. If the methodology is robust (and I can't see why it isn't), I think it is important to reflect on what the data is telli… | /r/MensRights | 02/04/15 04:06 PM |
| 1 | Stay informed. Use statistics to debate SJWs: CDC report on prevalence and distribution of sexual and domestic violence in the USI was a bit surprised too, but the methodology seems pretty legit. The study used a nationally representative random-digit–dial telephone survey to interview 14,155 people (7,758 women and 6,397 men). The questionnaire (PDF) is publicly available, and I don't see any obvious sources of bias. | /r/MensRights | 02/04/15 03:55 PM |
| 1 | Stay informed. Use statistics to debate SJWs: CDC report on prevalence and distribution of sexual and domestic violence in the USSorry for the inflammatory title! I just can't stand the amount of ignorance that is baked into conversations about violence. The CDC is a great source of statistics on this issue, and hopefully it will help to fuel logical, data-driven discussions! | /r/MensRights | 02/04/15 01:25 PM |
| 1 | Philosophy of manThat seems pretty discriminatory against transgendered identities. I'm just not comfortable with that type of position. | /r/MensRights | 11/02/15 02:32 PM |
| -1 | Philosophy of manThat's just begging the question, though. What defines an adult human "male"? | /r/MensRights | 10/02/15 09:50 PM |

| -3 | Why being a MRA and a Feminist is NOT mutually exclusive.Does a pediatrician who advocates for Child vaccine laws have biases against adults? That seems to be the track your logic is following, and I'm not sure I am comfortable with where that path goes. | /r/MensRights | 08/02/15 10:49 PM |
| -2 | Why being a MRA and a Feminist is NOT mutually exclusive.Any system of values which 'normalizes' behavior on the basis of biological sex is inherently detrimental. Do you agree with that? | /r/MensRights | 08/02/15 10:39 PM |
| -2 | Why being a MRA and a Feminist is NOT mutually exclusive.No, I was being very deliberate to call your opinion stupid. Unless you are the living embodiment of said opinion, it was not an ad hominem attack. Guessing you aren't following the rest my argument. I agree, I am not. Mostly because you haven't made it very effectively. | /r/MensRights | 08/02/15 10:14 PM |
| -2 | Why being a MRA and a Feminist is NOT mutually exclusive."Stop buying into zero-sum game gender wars nonsense" is a Strawman I fail to see how. You literally state that MRA and feminsist are mutually exclusive monikers. So, how have I mischaracterized your position? Ad hominem. Ah another fun one. Sadly, it wouldn't apply in this case, since I am deliberately focusing on dismantling your argument. An ad hominem would be if I attacked you, u/Zimbazumba, and not your argument. | /r/MensRights | 08/02/15 09:29 PM |
| -2 | Why being a MRA and a Feminist is NOT mutually exclusive.Is that a question directed at me? A strawman argument deliberately mischaracterizes the opponents reasoning in an attempt to avoid meaningful dialogue. Your comment seems intent on doing so. So, yes, I would characterize your thought as a strawman fallacy. It also has the element of a false dichotomy, wherein you posit either only MRA or only feminist. But clearly, as OP states there are other options. Philosophical fallacies are fun. Do you have any more? | /r/MensRights | 08/02/15 09:09 PM |
| -7 | Why being a MRA and a Feminist is NOT mutually exclusive.You say 'patriarchy', they say 'systematic normalization of gender roles, mostly but not exclusively to the historical detriment of women'. Get over the name. You sound like an idiot. | /r/MensRights | 08/02/15 08:55 PM |
| -8 | Why being a MRA and a Feminist is NOT mutually exclusive.Why? That's a pretty stupid opinion to have. Stop buying into zero-sum game gender wars nonsense. Edit, to respond to your edit: If the existence of "The Patriarchy" is the basis of your ideology then god help you. The world is a way more complex place than that. The historical normalization of gender roles (an idea that is often reduced to the term 'patriarchy') certainly exists. Do you dispute that? Yes, the world is certainly complicated. I would wager that OP believes there are a great deal … | /r/MensRights | 08/02/15 08:52 PM |
| 1 | This is the kind of thing Men's Rights Activists should be fighting to improve our reputation. Woman bullied by man into getting an abortion and promises to 'make her beg' for child support.I don't follow you. What has the fight for equality done to men? | /r/MensRights | 04/02/15 08:21 PM |
| 1 | This is the kind of thing Men's Rights Activists should be fighting to improve our reputation. Woman bullied by man into getting an abortion and promises to 'make her beg' for child support.Like, for a lot of guys their personal reputation is just as important if not more so than their personal health/integrity, or than we are more incensed by unequal treatment that just bad treatment, stuff like that. This may be heresy, but what I actually like about feminism is that it provides a nice theoretical framework for understanding how gender norms like those come to be and how they are harmful. That's why I think the whole 'we hate feminism' thing is so tiresome. The MR could really be… | /r/MensRights | 04/02/15 12:41 PM |
| 1 | This is the kind of thing Men's Rights Activists should be fighting to improve our reputation. Woman bullied by man into getting an abortion and promises to 'make her beg' for child support.It should advocate for women's issues though -- it is a gender equality movement. Certainly the emphasis should be on men's issues, but to ignore other gender imbalances or pretend that they don't exist seems stupid. | /r/MensRights | 04/02/15 12:37 PM |
| 2 | This is the kind of thing Men's Rights Activists should be fighting to improve our reputation. Woman bullied by man into getting an abortion and promises to 'make her beg' for child support.So it's a gender supremacy movement that tolerates hate speech as exemplified above? The MR is certainly about gender equality, if you think otherwise, you need to take a long hard look in the mirror and ask why. | /r/MensRights | 04/02/15 12:35 PM |
| 4 | This is the kind of thing Men's Rights Activists should be fighting to improve our reputation. Woman bullied by man into getting an abortion and promises to 'make her beg' for child support.People like you at the reason feminism exists and is still relevant today. cunt Seriously? On a subreddit that advocates for gender equality, you are denigrating the female body to insult someone. I think I speak for everyone when I say, "no, you fuck off". | /r/MensRights | 04/02/15 01:45 AM |
| 3 | This is the kind of thing Men's Rights Activists should be fighting to improve our reputation. Woman bullied by man into getting an abortion and promises to 'make her beg' for child support.Why not? A common complaint on this sub is "feminists don't advocate for male issues". It would be hypocritical of the sub to not give thought to issues affecting women. | /r/MensRights | 04/02/15 01:42 AM |
| 0 | Former Cardinal Raymond Burke explains how feminists within the church contribute to pedophilia, and have brought the church to its kneesKey excerpts from the article: “Unfortunately, the radical feminist movement strongly influenced the Church,” Cardinal Burke complained, “leading the Church to constantly address women’s issues at the expense of addressing critical issues important to men; the importance of the father, whether in the union of marriage or not; the importance of a father to children; the importance of fatherhood for priests; the critical impact of a manly character; the emphasis on the particular gifts that God gi… | /r/MensRights | 08/01/15 09:12 PM |
| 7 | MRAs, what space do Trans/Gay Men have in the movement?their rights to be bought up to those of a normal man I agree with the sentiment. I cringed at the use of the word, 'normal' however. Using words like normal are dangerous because they insinuate that whatever is not 'normal' is transgressive. | /r/MensRights | 06/10/14 11:00 PM |
| -2 | Emma Watson´s UN Speech about gender equalityWhat's wrong with English literature? Some of the smartest people I know are English majors. I think you would be hard pressed to argue that any other discipline prepares you to talk intelligently about important social issues. | /r/MensRights | 22/09/14 04:36 PM |

| -1 | ESPN analyst is happy to reduce "men" to vile caricature, says they need to be reprogrammedThe latter social pathology [that young black men are more likely to be aggresive than young white men]is not caused by "too much" masculinity, it's caused by the absence of proper male role models -- a product of, among other things, the mid-60s "man-out-of-the-house" government policy that paid poor women to rid the household of adult males. Did we just flash back to the sixties? That sounded an awful lot like Moynihan Report drivel. | /r/MensRights | 16/09/14 07:25 PM |
| 1 | Is feminism/patriarchy just a strawman whipping post for the MRM?I've used RES to tag you as embittered, impolite and inarticulate. Congrats on 15 years. | /r/MensRights | 15/09/14 04:52 PM |
| 1 | Is feminism/patriarchy just a strawman whipping post for the MRM?So, your argument is: 'I'm so much smarter than you that I can't be bothered to explain myself to you. Take my word for it.' You are an asset to this subreddit. | /r/MensRights | 11/09/14 11:19 PM |
| 3 | Is feminism/patriarchy just a strawman whipping post for the MRM?I eat 'intellectuals' like you for breakfast. And yet all you've had to contribute to this conversation is "uh...umm...apolgist!" and "no one likes feminists" and "we're mean to feminists because it works". Truly the pinnacle of argumentative conversation. I have yet to hear from you why feminists should be the object of the MR's ire when the issues most pressing for many MR's predate feminism. You're crashing into the walls of your own echo chamber, dude. | /r/MensRights | 11/09/14 01:48 AM |
| 1 | Is feminism/patriarchy just a strawman whipping post for the MRM?Go choke on a red pill you sanctimonious little prick. I'm not an apologist. I'm interested in real change. You just seem interested in getting your jollies off by being mean to a subset of naive, idealistic women. So go crawl back into whatever cave you came from, you troglodyte. IN general people don't mind political correctness. It keeps casual racism, sexism and other offensive stereotypical dialogues out of popular discourse. | /r/MensRights | 11/09/14 01:32 AM |
| 1 | Is feminism/patriarchy just a strawman whipping post for the MRM?Didn't mean to make it seem like I was calling you out specifically; I am more generally frustrated with the attitude that I see on this sub which often paints feminists as a arch-villain matriarchy and ignores bigger problems. The study looks interesting, I'll have to give it a more thorough read, thanks :) | /r/MensRights | 11/09/14 01:17 AM |
| 3 | Is feminism/patriarchy just a strawman whipping post for the MRM?But that's such a myopic view on the issue, man. Who gives a shit if some ivy league women want to march for abortion rights? I'm much more concerned that my government, the one that we (men included), elected still enables forced conscription of men. I'm mad that our medical system, which is predominantly run by men, thinks its ok to mutilate the genitals of little baby boys. I'm mad that our justice system, mostly staffed by men doesn't take the issue of domestic violence against men seriously… | /r/MensRights | 11/09/14 12:52 AM |
| 1 | Is feminism/patriarchy just a strawman whipping post for the MRM?I'm not saying 'don't attack feminism', rather that there are likely bigger sources of male oppression out there that we should be targeting. The value systems that enable male oppression predate feminism by centuries, if not millennia. It just seems like a fools errand to pretend that feminists are the exclusive (or even predominant) force enabling this value system today. | /r/MensRights | 11/09/14 12:48 AM |
| 2 | Is feminism/patriarchy just a strawman whipping post for the MRM?For the sake of this discussion, I was assuming we all had a pretty similar understanding of the terms. I was more interested in exploring why MRAs spend so much time working to oppose feminism when most MR issues have their origins well before the feminist movement. I worry that we might be attacking the wrong thing. | /r/MensRights | 10/09/14 11:47 PM |
| 0 | Is feminism/patriarchy just a strawman whipping post for the MRM?But today it's called feminism and it's the state approved gender ideology. I think it's a great idea to remind people that something was going on before feminism came along (to combat feminist revisionist history) but feminism is the biggest target to go after. I like it. The feminist movement wasn't a movement to combat gender inequalities, but rather a movement bent on reinforcing them. I'm not sure if that makes historical sense, but it feels right. they don't want to hear about how the elit… | /r/MensRights | 10/09/14 11:43 PM |
| 2 | Is feminism/patriarchy just a strawman whipping post for the MRM?I have a pretty good idea of what those terms mean. The point I was trying to make is that most MR issues precede the feminist movement and the formulation of the patriarchal ideals. This suggests it may not be appropriate to blame feminism or the patriarchy for MR problems. Yet we seem to spend an awful lot of time doing just that. It seems to me that the other ways in which our social system is hierarchized (capitalism, meritocracy etc.) likely also fuel MR problems. Sadly, this sub doesn't de… | /r/MensRights | 10/09/14 08:08 PM |

| 1 | Editing WikipediaI don't know, this doesn't sound terribly convincing. You'll see under "Bias" that someone claims that we should change "Notable Instances of Misandry" to "Alleged Instances of Misandry" based on the fact that a feminist wrote in a book in the 90s that basically misandry doesn't exist and that the only times women feel hatred to men it's due to the fact that men have privilege and keep the womynfolk down. I think this is actually a point in Wiki's favor. If you look at the actual misandry page, … | /r/MensRights | 30/08/14 02:25 PM |

Blogs and YouTube videos don't. And to be honest, that's sort of how I prefer it. | /r/MensRights | 30/08/14 02:51 AM |
| 2 | Editing WikipediaDude, just stop. You are embarrassing yourself and everyone else in this sub. Yes, linking to blog articles and YouTube videos results in deletion so by the Wiki editors. Vandalization of other pages results in deletion by Wiki editors. If you, or someone else, post well-referenced articles with links to reputable research from high impact journals, guess what? It is much, much less likely to be deleted. That's how Wiki works. | /r/MensRights | 30/08/14 02:40 AM |

Please help!Just because there is a woman in a strong leading role does not mean there is something wrong with the show. I think you are mischaracterizing my concerns. I am not concerned because Buffy is a woman. I am concerned because of how the show systematically depicts men and women. There appear to be clear gender roles on the show, with men falling more often than not into the stupid, evil, only good for sex category.

Please help!I hear what you're saying, but at the same time I just can't shake the feeling that something is wrong with the show's agenda. Take how violence is depicted on the show. I worry that it is giving the message that women can hit men without consequences (it may even empower this line of reasoning). That is so dangerous in the world we live in where woman on man violence is all too often unreported and men who are the victims of such violence are made to feel inferior.

Buffy is a show that even its creator describes as having an overtly feminist agenda, & in fact that is true, it does. And feminism is a hate movement. Which inevitably leads to misandry - a contemptuous disregard for men's suffering & humanity. So you see my problem. and There are no 'empowered' men in Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

I haven't seen that many episodes. My fears were based on the observation that the show is based on a female group of friends (sure, there is Xander, but he is a stereotypical dumb, stupid man) who go around killing mostly male antagonists.

Please help!No troll (although I do enjoy a good trolling of the folks at r/conspiracy every once in a while). The reason I became concerned is because the show seems premised around a group of female friends (with a token, half-wit male friend, Xander) running around killing mostly make bad guys.

I am more concerned about the ideology of the show.
