Basically, good point badly made and fuck companies trying to turn social issues into profit. Almost no one at Gilette actually cares about harmful expectations put upon men by our society and culture, they just though they could make some more money.

I don't think Gillette realized that the people who understand and agree with the point of the message also don't give the slightest fuck about what a brand has to say about social issues, but the people who will get unreasonably offended by being told "hey, the traditional ideas of masculinity are harmful to men" are also the people that believe brands actually care about social issues and aren't just trying to ride a wave for profit.

They make up 12-13% of your population, but what percentage of the poor population? Poverty is the biggest cause for criminal behaviour. Especially petty or violent crimes. I bet you not a single African-American hides their money in a tax haven. In addition, it seems American culture just sort of assumes black people are criminals (in addition to poor people and men), especially the police. This means a higher rate of black people being caught (because people assume black people are up to somet…

I do not strive for equality. I support liberation. The defenders of equality espouse moderate feminist principles: equal pay for equal work, equal opportunity with no special considerations i.e. positive discrimination, failure is down to the individual I stopped reading. If this person truly believes that the end goal of liberation movements isn't equality, then, I just, wow.

Feminists say that saying things like "I raped that noob at call of duty" trivializes rape, but laws like this, where anyone can get away with false rape accusations trivialize it far more than any juvenile joke could ever do.

You could have her sign an agreement, but it would really kill the mood. Plus you'd have to prove it wasn't done under duress, and that she was in a sound enough mental condition to sign a legal document, so you're back to square one. Or, you could record the whole thing, but you'd need separate permission for that. Without a recording or a signed document, it's impossible to prove consent. Far safer just to never have sex...

It's the "human nature" argument. It's often used against communists like me by people who claim the greed of capitalism is just "human nature". If anyone ever uses such an argument (or any kind of natural=good argument) I like the following things: It is not human nature to drive cars. It is not human nature to live in large, densely populated cities. It is not human nature to fly. Arsenic is natural. Miscarriage is natural.

I would say I'm a liberal socialist.

It bothers me that feminism is seen as the epitome of my corner of the political compass. Feminism is, and always has been, a female supremacy movement. It is inherently illiberal and anti-socialist.

You have to look at the history of who was given the right to vote and why. At first, it was just landowners. If you physically owned a portion of the nation, you had a say. Then it was extended to all men above a certain age. What's so special about men? Men could be conscripted. The right to vote was thus granted to people who would fight for the interests of the nation. When feminists demanded the right to vote, they did so without consideration of why they didn't have it in the first place. …

/r/MensRights10/06/15 07:36 AM

It's explained in the article. The number of crimes a single person can report is limited at 5. That isn't to say the police won't investigate, but it won't be counted in statistics. This is to prevent distortion from one victim who is being repeatedly victimised making it look like there are lots of victims. EDIT: It's nothing to do with the police, it's for the crime survey, which is separate to the police's own statistics, and can take into account crimes that were never reported.

It's simply the transformation of society from top-down rule to bottom-up. As it stands, the state declares how things are organised, what is right or wrong, etc, and the people must follow. In anarchism, the people decide for themselves through a combination of personalchoice,and direct democratic action. It doesn't necessarily preclude the existence of an organised society. Certainly, some form of law enforcement is necessary, if only to stop psychopath and sociopaths from murdering, stealing …

It's a common misconception that anarchism automatically requires statelessness. It is simply the idea that all authority can (and should) be questioned and rejected. That a person only accepts authority willingly. For example, I reject (in principle) the authority of my country's current government, as the ruling party didn't get an absolute majority of votes (nor do agree with their policies. In anarchism, I would be free to ignore them). In practice, however, because we do not live in an anar…

They won't consider the inherent failure of capitalism, though. They'll blame immigrants, or "lazy" welfare recipients. Because if a person with no experience and who can barely speak the language is a better candidate for a job than you, maybe they're not the problem.

isn't the same criticism usually true of the MRM? Yes. As a rejection of modern (and, at times, historical) feminism, it necessarily exists on the same "level". This isn't really a bad thing. All ideas, no matter how lofty or basic need an opposition. Either to stop it running amok, or to frame it with contrast. Take capitalism vs socialism. In the industrial revolution, capitalism ran unopposed in people's minds. The result was effective slavery, with a "work or die" and "profit at all costs at…

A man having a child has little to no affect on his career That's because men don't get the same levels of guaranteed leave. If you want time off work, you have to understand that it will negatively affect your career. If a woman wants to have children but keep her career, then I propose we extend existing maternity leave to men. Simply reverse the roles and have the man stay at home. Having children is not like falling ill. Having children is a choice, and choices have consequences.

You know what I'd like to see? Combat deaths as a proportion of number of combatants. Saying men are 97% of all combat deaths is meaningless when the vast majority of combatants are men.

This was always an equality law I was not in favour of, even though it benefits me (theoretically). If it can be proven that a certain group of people is a higher risk to the insurer, then that group pays more. It's how private insurance works. If you want everyone to be paying the same regardless, socialise it, like we are supposed to be doing with healthcare (the rampant privatisation of healthcare, although disgusting, is not relevant here).

Oranges and shelves are not people, and therefore can't be exchanged for people.

Our institutions have been captured by Gramscian Leftists who encourage andpromote violence by the Left. I'm confused. How exactly is a rich kid smashing personal property in the name of "social justice" at all related to Gramsci's philosophies, socialism, and the emancipation of the working class?

Never walk away from an argument where you hold the correct position. Even if you hold the low ground right now, if you are correct you can always fall back on the one shining light: facts. If you can back yourself up with well-researched evidence and simple facts, you can quickly discredit your opponent, and bolster your own position. Besides, an argument can always be pulled back with the approriate phraseology or counterpoint. Walking away is signalling that you no longer have will to fight. …

That's a good point. Traditional gender roles have nothing to do with what makes a happy relationship. It's about the dynamic between the people in it.

It is. Just take a look at how sexual reproduction works. Let's look at the male perspective first. Before paternity tests, there was little to no way of confirming if a child was yours. The best way of ensuring this, was to choose a woman that was faithful. If not, that child might not be yours. Also, a man is capable of impregnating many many women. This helps to further his genetic line. Over the millennia, these have led to a genetic predisposition among males to favour fidelity in women, an…

I honestly don't care which way it goes, and your sexuality is your own business, but can we please have some consistency? Either young boys in sexual poses is wrong, or young girls in sexual poses is fine. I hate this dualism we have. Also, Germaine Greer is evil. Even feminists I know don't like her.

Hey, if it's OK to laugh at male genital mutilation, then it's OK to laugh at female genital mutilation. LOL she had her clit cut off! No? Not funny? Neither is this. The image may be funny when taken out of context, but context always matters. With context, this is non-violent domestic abuse that could easily turn violent.

Dammit, you already posted this. And I thought I was original... What bugs me most about this article (apart from the writer's obvious male guilt, white guilt and straight guilt, seriously, he should see a shrink) is that he obviously has no idea of how the human mind works. It needs to be able to identify between a male and a female. This cropped up because of biological and, later, societal evolution. If you could not identify the correct gender to have sex with, you didn't get to pass on your…

also explain to me how a car witha male driver suddenly becopmes a lesser risk once a wom,an begins to drive it as well. not that the man starts to drive less no the car is actually in more use thus being in bigger statistical risk over all Averages. The car goes from 100% male use to, say, 50% male, 50% female. The car is unlikely to be used much more than it already is, but the usage is now split between a risky driver and a careful driver, when it was previously only the risky driver. nobody …

Nature dealt women all the cards did it? Well, time to dismantle feminism them. That's it. Feminism is dead. Honestly. On another note, one highly sexually appealing male mating with as many females as possible is how society used to work before we became mostly monogamous and gained empathy for other humans. It seems very anti-feminist. I think the person who wrote this is just trolling.

If I pay for a meal for my GF, it is because I feel like giving her something. Most of the time we pay for what we each ordered. Maybe I'm lucky, whenever I pay for a meal (or other non-reciprocal gift), it makes her so happy she'll do anything. And do you know what? I don't make her do anything. Sex is always for both of us. Because I'm a man. Not a monster. I hate the way feminism presents men as these all-powerful things who have more penis than brain.

the argument is exactly that no matter how bad the female driver she is going to be considered a lesser risk no matter how good the male driver. No. There will come a point where the maths starts to tip the other way. you are argueing that the worst female driver in the world is alesser risk than the best male driver in the world No. No I’m not.

It is dependant on how many accidents she has had. If she has had enough accidents to become more likely to claim, then her premiums will end up higher than his. And it isn't "my math" it's "the math(s)". Mathematics is not a personal thing. It is not subjective. It is universally consistent. Also incredibly complicated. I don't claim to understand the ins-and-outs, but at least I have a general idea of how it works.

Black people are not statistically more likely to commit crimes. People from disadvantaged backgrounds are. It just so happens that people from disadvantaged backgrounds tend to be ethnic minorities. And paying more taxes won't help them. Crime is not at all relatable to insurance. Men are statistically and biologically more likely to take risks, therefore we pay more. I don't have a problem with this, It's simple mathematics and risk management. tl;dr correlation does not imply causality, educa…

As I said to you in another thread. There are measurable and proven psychological differences between the male and female brains. That men are more likely to take risks is well established. There are absolutely no differences between the brains of people from different ethnic backgrounds. But, I can see that it is ultimately pointless to argue with someone who thinks that perceived differences (black/white) are the same as actual differences (male/female) and who also doesn't seem to understand …

That's not crime prevention, that's racist and idiotic fear-mongering. Crime prevention is identifying those who are most likely to, or have already, committed crimes, and educating them or providing facilities so they can work through their issues without resorting to criminal activity. And I really don't think there is a causal link between ethnicity and crime. Gender (or rather, sex) and race are not at all comparable. There are measurable and proven psychological differences between the male…

I agree that the forced car insurance with no government-run insurance is a very bad thing indeed. If it is necessary, then the government should provide it. On that note, why isn't food and water free? And basic housing? Wait, isn't that socialism? If it is, socialism sounds good. And it would all be paid for with the taxes from capitalism.

Healthcare is very expensive. Imagine you have a condition for which you need a prescription of medicine on a regular basis. Perhaps even for the rest of your life.

We have free healthcare in general here in the UK. It's called the NHS. It allows everyone to have access to a basic level of healthcare. If you want better, there are private healthcare providers, but the free option is sufficient. Only necessary things are free. Surgery, contraception, dentistry etc. If you want cosmetic surgery, that's private only. Please, tell me what's fundamentally wrong with the idea of a socialised healthcare system.

No, because you can't arrest someone without charge. Crime is not related to anything other than circumstance and upbringing. And maybe mental illness. What should happen, is that if a group is more likely to commit crimes, then more should be invested in crime prevention. Although, I don't really see how this is relevant. EDIT: spelling

Wouldn't it be fairer to have this experiment done with a representative pseudo-random sample of the UK prison population? If he's only considering women, then he only cares about women.

We would have the same issues, but, there should still be nothing wrong with it. If it can be shown with pure numbers that a certain ethnicity is more or less likely to claim, then, yes, the premiums would be altered to reflect this.

I don't know the exact stats, but if someone makes a claim, their premium goes up, right? If a group has been shown to be statistically safer, then the premiums for that group start off lower. This is why new drivers pay lots more than experienced drivers. And why young people pay more than middle-aged people. If you are a very safe driver, and have never made a claim, then your premiums will go down, and if a woman (or anyone) is an unsafe driver, then their premiums will go up. Statistically s…
