–	What it's like to be a homeless male Being a not-young or not-attractive homeless woman who isn't fleeing a man ain't a bed of roses either. Being homeless is generally shit for anyone's sense of self-worth and you're gonna be judged on sight 100 times a day no matter what your personal story is. I sincerely hope things improve for you soon. Edit: Lol, keep forgetting the hate that one can attract here on account of being female. Take my precious internet points if it alleviates your bitterness, boys.	/r/MensRights	03/06/14 11:41 PM
16	Creep shamed, because I wouldn't let a woman return a sweater It takes a special kind of stupid to unduly disrespect people who handle your food.	/r/MensRights	16/05/14 05:33 PM
8	Creep shamed, because I wouldn't let a woman return a sweater Well, like other people who try to use their children that way, it was really only meant as a swipe at OP. Sadly it's not an uncommon tactic. As a mother I can say that with no context overhearing that, I would assume she was acting like a spoilt brat about something. If you'd really said or done something genuinely creepy it's more likely a mother would go a bit further than calling you a creep and storming off.	/r/MensRights	16/05/14 03:55 PM
2	A awareness campaign to end MGM. You aren't missing out on anything, except y'know, the full experience of sexual pleasure. No big deal.	/r/MensRights	16/05/14 10:13 AM
2	A awareness campaign to end MGM. "Every girl I've been with prefers when guys are circumcised." I don't, but on the rare occasions I've seen one I haven't felt the need to belittle the poor guy or make him self-conscious by bringing that up. Unless you can read minds there's a good chance you have no idea what some of those girls prefer.	/r/MensRights	16/05/14 10:10 AM
2	facts about gender equality So glad to see this downvoted. The bitterness and sexism is strong with this one.	/r/MensRights	22/04/14 03:43 AM
1	Cosplay does not equal consent.... Yeah ladies... keep your hands to yourself. (male victim harassment story) Thanks for the mature and kind response. If you'll allow me to get picky just one more time - some of us get a bit cringey (to put it mildly) when we're described as 'suffering' from an autism spectrum disorder. Like everyone else in the world, we're all individuals and there are certainly some people out there who would describe their ASD as a cause of suffering but those of us who don't, really don't. As with so many situations when wires are crossed or misunderstandings occur, what's more imp…	/r/MensRights	20/04/13 08:37 AM
1	Peter Lloyd: 'Why I'm suing my gym over their sexist women-only hours' I think the worst part about this issue is the implication that men are more likely to approach women, leer, comment or follow them home or something. After all, we live in a world where plenty of lesbians use the gym and they're not being banned.	/r/MensRights	19/04/13 02:41 PM
1	Men faking orgasms and the myth that men are only concerned with their own orgasm. It shouldn't be such a huge surprise but there's that enduring stereotype of men not being able to control themselves or last longer than 3 minutes.	/r/MensRights	17/04/13 11:48 AM
7	For those of us in Australia - a reminder that this helpful website exists... "one in three" Here in Australia you can imagine the kind of reaction the "average bloke" (or average 'sheila' for that matter) would have to a man opening up about enduring abuse. So glad this exists.	/r/MensRights	17/04/13 11:39 AM
2	Stop Child Abuse This really hit home with a situation currently going on with some people I know. The mother is putting her kids in appalling situations on a daily basis and that's not even touching on the general treatment these kids are having to endure. Both parents weren't exactly candidates for the cover of a parenting magazine but the father really loves those kids and has turned his back on the dodgier aspects of his life and enlisted the help of his mum to give these kids the safe, sane, happy environme…	/r/MensRights	17/04/13 11:36 AM
1	Cosplay does not equal consent.... Yeah ladies... keep your hands to yourself. (male victim harassment story) I love dogs, as in the animals. However, where I'm from a dog is a police informant and the lowest form of human scum short of child molesters. So yeah, perhaps an emotional overreaction.	/r/MensRights	17/04/13 08:54 AM
2	Men are guilty until proven innocent in terms of rape and molestation. Are there any crimes women are guilty until proven innocent? Here (Australia) it seems you can do whatever you want violence-wise but don't dare steal from a corporate entity. It seems the more money involved, the harsher the sentence, regardless of your family situation. When I was in prison the majority of women there were younger drug users in for things like theft and so on and of course the more heinous crimes such as murder and pedophilia (yes, women do that too). Then you had your culpable drivers and even a few shoplifters but they were ones who w…	/r/MensRights	15/04/13 11:10 AM
2	What feminists are demanding is the right for women to commit a crime and avoid the punishment laid down by law. Women Are Tough Enough To Serve Time. I did not assert that women's prison is worse than men's overall. I said, "In many respects, women's prison is harder than men's". I don't doubt that it's easier in some ways too. I wish my experiences were made up, imaginary delusions - it would be nice to have those years back.	/r/MensRights	15/04/13 08:56 AM
3	What feminists are demanding is the right for women to commit a crime and avoid the punishment laid down by law. Women Are Tough Enough To Serve Time. I find it interesting that it seems quite different in the US system. Perhaps because the prison populations there are so huge and the gang thing is very much an ingrained part of prison life as well as in the real world (I assume). Also, our country was built by convicts and I suppose that is reflected a bit in prison/criminal culture. I totally agree with what you say about gender there. Awful things happen in men's prisons too but I think women play more on the psychological. What brings me t…	/r/MensRights	15/04/13 05:51 AM
2	What feminists are demanding is the right for women to commit a crime and avoid the punishment laid down by law. Women Are Tough Enough To Serve Time. I don't know about that. I found it was a pretty fair reflection of society in general. When I went to prison we had a lot of women in for various types of fraud to support gambling habits. In this state we had gradually removed the stages from pubs and replaced them with pokie machines. So, you had a lot of very average ordinary mums and grandmas doing quite lengthy sentences (3-4 years) for things like embezzlement at their workplaces and so on. They were the last people you'd expect to meet i…	/r/MensRights	15/04/13 05:03 AM
2	What feminists are demanding is the right for women to commit a crime and avoid the punishment laid down by law. Women Are Tough Enough To Serve Time. I have someone sitting right next to me who did ten years. Would you like to ask them anything? EDIT: I have also spent a fair bit of time playing volleyball, debating and visiting at mens prisons but that probably doesn't count for what you're implying.	/r/MensRights	15/04/13 04:40 AM
3	What feminists are demanding is the right for women to commit a crime and avoid the punishment laid down by law. Women Are Tough Enough To Serve Time. I'm sorry, how much time have you spent in women's prisons here? This is how it is. I hope I can never speak for the conditions in other countries.	/r/MensRights	15/04/13 03:07 AM
2	What feminists are demanding is the right for women to commit a crime and avoid the punishment laid down by law. Women Are Tough Enough To Serve Time. We don't have the gang culture that the US has. My partner spent 10 years in male prisons here, you're welcome to ask him if I have it wrong. Edit: He tells me that the Aboriginals and Lebanese tend to stick together but he wouldn't call them 'gangs' in the sense described above.	/r/MensRights	15/04/13 03:02 AM
2	What feminists are demanding is the right for women to commit a crime and avoid the punishment laid down by law. Women Are Tough Enough To Serve Time. Yes, I am. I'm from the original land of the convict.	/r/MensRights	15/04/13 03:02 AM
5	What feminists are demanding is the right for women to commit a crime and avoid the punishment laid down by law. Women Are Tough Enough To Serve Time. Because of the violence and what some children were exposed to, they cracked down on having children in prison. It was a bit of a failed experiment. There are limited spaces in max security now to have children with you but it's very difficult to get a place. The living area is now separate from the mainstream population if you have a child with you. It's more common in minimum security as the environment is more like living on a farm. The conditions I described above pertain to maximum security…	/r/MensRights	14/04/13 03:36 PM
29	What feminists are demanding is the right for women to commit a crime and avoid the punishment laid down by law. Women Are Tough Enough To Serve Time. The most common comparison that comes up in conversation is the difference in how women deal with conflict with other prisoners. In many ways that and other issues can be compared a bit with high school. Much of this is of course generalising but what I'm telling you is accepted as common knowledge amongst those of us who've been there. In male prisons, if a bloke has a problem with another bloke, the two of them will go into a cell and sort it out - either verbally or violently. One of them mig…	/r/MensRights	14/04/13 03:20 PM
17	What feminists are demanding is the right for women to commit a crime and avoid the punishment laid down by law. Women Are Tough Enough To Serve Time. I am a woman who served four-and-a-half years in prison. In many respects, women's prison is harder than men's. This is a generally accepted fact amongst the 'ex-con' community. It's not so much because the conditions themselves are hard though, it's more because of the way women can tend to behave towards each other. When you take away the differences in behaviours and viciousness, prison generally (at least in my country) is not as harsh an environment as one would imagine. Some women can even…	/r/MensRights	14/04/13 12:58 PM
0	Cosplay does not equal consent.... Yeah ladies... keep your hands to yourself. (male victim harassment story) Really? We're comparable to dogs now? So much for awareness and acceptance.	/r/MensRights	14/04/13 12:31 PM
2	Cosplay does not equal consent.... Yeah ladies... keep your hands to yourself. (male victim harassment story) I really hope you meant "those kinds of people" in reference to generally rude, disrespectful space invaders rather than people with asperger's.	/r/MensRights	14/04/13 12:28 PM
1	Free Willy: Should Prison Inmates have the Right to Masturbate? Victoria, Australia	/r/MensRights	11/01/12 08:01 PM
1	Free Willy: Should Prison Inmates have the Right to Masturbate? You don't have mixed gender prison guards in your system? We have both here and if there are no females on duty it's legal for two males to stripsearch a female prisoner - by force if necessary.	/r/MensRights	11/01/12 07:53 PM
