| 5 | Patriarchy theory is a form of psychological projection.Patriarchy theory is a psychological projection. It reflects the way the world would be, genders reversed, if women were the historically dominant gender... Deep wisdom hinted at here. If we separate gender dominance between productive and reproductive resources can we get a glimpse of the effect of women's dominance of the latter and so extend and test the theory? | /r/MensRights | 05/08/15 09:12 AM |

| 1 | Gaza: Why does the media consider women’s deaths are more tragic than men’s?but women are not scarce It's relative scarcity scarcity that matters. paternal instinct is pretty undeniably more important There have been longstanding successful societies where the father was not involved in the raising of his child. Never the opposite. The scarce egg explanation presupposes lifelong monogamy (Genderratic) It doesn't. | /r/MensRights | 23/07/14 05:09 PM |
| 1 | Gaza: Why does the media consider women’s deaths are more tragic than men’s?I doubt if individual human behaviour is guided by the survival of the species. Survival of genes, and possibly culture, is more likely to determine behaviour. The factor that might really change our species' bias towards protecting women is artificial reproduction and I'm wondering if this has been explored in any decent science fiction, yet. | /r/MensRights | 22/07/14 10:05 AM |
| 1 | Gaza: Why does the media consider women’s deaths are more tragic than men’s?This presumes that men can only marry women from their own society I was referring mainly to prehistory. the only reproductive resource [women] hold that men don't is wombs and eggs Scarce reproductive resources, of which one type is enough of course, but you could add breasts, maternal instinct and, possibly, a lower risk taking instinct to your list. In any one place or time in prehistory the importance of the different gender roles depended on different factors, no doubt, but a group with few… | /r/MensRights | 22/07/14 09:51 AM |
| 27 | Gaza: Why does the media consider women’s deaths are more tragic than men’s?Societies that believed a woman's death was equivalent to a man's were unlikely to be able to compete numerically with those that believed in prioritising the protection of women, since women hold our species' scarce reproductive resources. | /r/MensRights | 21/07/14 12:37 PM |
| 3 | Why do people hate Men's Rights? Serious replies only, please.The 'ultimate' reason is probably because early human societies that treated men and women completely equally, or protected men before they protected women, didn't survive. Women monopolise the scarce reproductive resources and a failure to protect these leads to the end of the society. As a result modern humans tend to have an unconscious bias towards protecting women. 'Protection' implies different things in different ages but the developed world now sees it, essentially, as feminism. | /r/MensRights | 09/06/14 10:26 AM |
| 1 | Should a man have a say if an alternative to abortion becomes possible?This would be a giant step towards artificial human reproduction and therefore a necessity for meaningful gender equality. As such, I predict that women will fight it tooth and nail. Should it become practical and permitted then I believe the 'aborting' women would, by default, not be held responsible for child support. Eventually, the logic of the situation would result in men who want to opt out of parenthood (before the child's birth) being allowed to do so - but only a long time later and ov… | /r/MensRights | 18/03/14 11:07 AM |

| 5 | The Wage Gap: A ResponseI for one would be slightly more sympathetic to the equal pay demand if it came with a demand for 50/50 parenting rights.

Marriage used to create a completely new legal entity. Yes, the man had the legal responsibility for the management of a marriage's assets and liabilities but that was for a very good legal reason: because penalising women with children wasn't either practical or acceptable.

| 1 | Best song giving Dad's side of divorce? E.g. in the style of Good Charlotte's 'Emotionless'?The author did divorce but he kept the children with him, I understand. "'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide" doesn't fit with a divorcing man these days, either. Also, it seems to have been intended for a woman to sing, with the words changed slightly if a man sang it. | /r/MensRights | 16/09/13 02:19 PM |

| 2 | Circumcision is just an 'oddity' to a royal infant's parents.Really? You think that deciding to surgically remove a part of an infant's body is equivalent to deciding what clothes they wear? | /r/MensRights | 15/09/13 08:51 PM |
| 3 | Feedback please: Three Questions on the topic of "Women's Oppression" in history.Also, ask the feminist how it is that she has managed to turn around women's oppression so quickly, mostly in the last 50 years, and with so little opposition while her great... grandmothers all remained so horribly oppressed? Why are she and her sisters today so much more capable and independent than their great grandmothers were? Answer? They're not, of course. It's feminism's perception of history that is grossly distorted, not the capabilities of women through the ages. | /r/MensRights | 12/09/13 08:45 AM |

| 2 | The effects of letting a boy wait and decide himself to be circumcised or notThe way to minimise the damage is to make infant circumcision both unacceptable and punishable, not to participate in it. The damage to infants is the responsibility of the people performing this barbaric act. Relieving them of part of this responsibility is making the act more acceptable. It isn't a war on two fronts, it's war or peace. You can't have both. | /r/MensRights | 10/09/13 11:17 PM |
| 2 | The effects of letting a boy wait and decide himself to be circumcised or notBest, then, to reply to the actual comment that you take issue with. Explain that you understand their pov but that the topic will get more support from the circumcised if comments focus on the future - because criticism of past actions can unintentionally alienate potential supporters. | /r/MensRights | 10/09/13 08:25 AM |
| 1 | The effects of letting a boy wait and decide himself to be circumcised or notAbortions aren't performed on un-consenting women. Cultural infant circumcision is an attack on the defenceless infant's rights, whether it leads to immediate further health problems for the infant or not. The issue that needs addressing is the circumcision itself. Circumcision should be eradicated, as you say. Official participation is not the way to get a ban going. I am disgusted by the NHS' approach on this. So should you be. | /r/MensRights | 10/09/13 08:14 AM |
| 6 | The effects of letting a boy wait and decide himself to be circumcised or notUnfortunately, in some parts of the UK, the NHS do now perform religious or culturally motivated circumcisions. They require a contribution to the costs but the pressure from some communities has been such that they have decided to operate themselves rather than have some backstreet slasher operate. A political decision I believe to be both deeply flawed and misandrist. | /r/MensRights | 09/09/13 08:39 AM |
| 14 | The effects of letting a boy wait and decide himself to be circumcised or notCould the OP be clearer that the issue is about consent, yet you interpret this as 'its bad to be circumcised'?

My main point, though, is that - as much as we'd like to treat (in this case African) men as children and protect them from people we regard as lying abusers - we Intactivists should be careful not to overstep our remit.

| 15 | US commits $11.4m to support circumcisionIt's voluntary and it's for men (not infants). If you're over 18, would like to have your foreskin removed by someone paid for by the USA taxpayer and prefer a 4000% higher risk of contracting HIV (assuming the dubious african HIV trials produced accurate results), all rather than use a condom - then that's your choice, I guess. | /r/MensRights | 30/07/13 11:22 PM |
| 1 | I'm pregnant and we just found out we're having a boy. My husband wants him circumcised, but I'm completely against that. How do I explain this to him?An easy way to prove your contention that circumcision is 'far too sensationalized' is to find an intact adult man and see how he reacts when you attempt to circumcise him.
