11	Man won the lottery, lost half during the divorce and forced to pay child and spousal support with his share. Isn't a contract invalid if it's not also written in a language he understands well?	/r/MensRights	12/02/15 05:59 AM
1	Michelle Obama: 'Women Are Smarter Than Men' Because of that same historical context, it's also especially women that should know that such comments are out of line. Think about that.	/r/MensRights	06/08/14 11:36 PM
13	Michelle Obama: 'Women Are Smarter Than Men' In other words, do the same as what you hate being done to you. Yeah, there's nothing wrong with that. /s	/r/MensRights	06/08/14 08:19 PM
1	Finally! Female teacher who allegedly raped four underage boys is actually charged with four counts of rape and forcible sodomy. Could this possibly be a baby step towards the legal system finally rec Double the age, position of power... yeah, no, this isn't a minor offense. The limits are there for a reason, no need to try and break them down.	/r/MensRights	06/08/14 11:43 AM

0	100 peer-reviewed scientific studies have found male circumcision painful, traumatic, or psychologically harmful to men and boys Ýou've presented a flawed argument in your first post, I showed that in subsequent posts. Yet you keep responding to that with: A. You're wrong B. You're inexperienced C. You're not smart enough D. I'm right Never do you try to refute any argument that shows your earlier statement is flawed, with an argument yourself. In essence, that means you're incapable of understanding that your argument has been shown to be flawed, or are too inflexible to admit you're wrong. If you're so certain of your s…	/r/MensRights	27/06/14 10:57 AM
2	100 peer-reviewed scientific studies have found male circumcision painful, traumatic, or psychologically harmful to men and boys That may be the case in America, it isn't in Europe or most of Asia. If anything it is the opposite. Secondly, there's no need for social stigma (it actually does exist, both for and against circumcision) to feel bad about being circumcised. It's your own preference, just as much as you may hate having larger than average boobs. There's no social stigma against it, but it may still ruin your psyche. One can make a big deal out of something himself, there's no need for outside influence on the ma…	/r/MensRights	26/06/14 10:48 PM
2	100 peer-reviewed scientific studies have found male circumcision painful, traumatic, or psychologically harmful to men and boys Whoosh! Also, please return that degree in psychology, you're not worthy of it. You should know that everything can be harmful to a certain individual predisposed, one way or the other, to that certain thing. Let alone something that can be construed as: I like circumcised dicks; I don't. If you don't, well, you're shit out of luck, have fun dealing with that circumcised dick you have. Obviously that's harmful psychologically, as he's not happy with a part of his body. Possibly anxious of showin…	/r/MensRights	26/06/14 10:21 PM
1	100 peer-reviewed scientific studies have found male circumcision painful, traumatic, or psychologically harmful to men and boys There's a world of difference between keeping your response concise and meaningful, and absolutely not holding any substance at all. Your comments are of the latter sort. The only thing you've done so far is say I'm wrong and lack experience, yet no argument to lend such a baseless statement any support is forthcoming. If we look at your downvotes, you must be living completely in another world to not see you may be wrong.	/r/MensRights	26/06/14 09:46 PM
2	100 peer-reviewed scientific studies have found male circumcision painful, traumatic, or psychologically harmful to men and boys I'd argue the opposite, you can't handle everything at the same time. Therefore you resort to oneliners, adressing just one (or no) thing per post. The only thing you're stating is your complete incomprehension and idiocy. Several times you've put your 'argument' to shame by misinterpreting or attacking me on something you yourself have said and I merely used for the sake of argument. You're a complete idiot, congratulations.	/r/MensRights	26/06/14 03:13 PM
2	100 peer-reviewed scientific studies have found male circumcision painful, traumatic, or psychologically harmful to men and boys What? Are we resorting to ad hominems now? Having a hard time refuting my claims, are we? You're dealing with it by neglecting it. That's not helping anything along but the status quo. Good job. If we're going to start ad hominems; you're one petty and utterly oblivious person, entirely incapable of any self reflection. You're beyond help, please continue your endless circlejerk on the matter if you ever get into an argument about MGM again. I hope you eventually will think about what I said.	/r/MensRights	26/06/14 01:13 PM
4	100 peer-reviewed scientific studies have found male circumcision painful, traumatic, or psychologically harmful to men and boys Experience would also give you the ability to actually negate the illogical racism card. Yet you continuously fail to learn how to do that. Even when it's given to you on a platter, you fail to see it. Instead you continue to propagate the notion I don't have enough experience on the matter, which is a fallacy in and of itself. You yourself are being completely illogical with that statement, on par with any religious nutcase. Secondly, why in the world would you bring up that Islam isn't a race.…	/r/MensRights	26/06/14 12:38 PM
3	100 peer-reviewed scientific studies have found male circumcision painful, traumatic, or psychologically harmful to men and boys Sigh, again, point out that FGM is banned. Racism argument doesn't work if FGM has already been banned. The same arguments can be used for FGM, yet it has been banned. Clearly you don't know how to stay on subject. You don't have to go into the racism argument, just get back to FGM being banned. So, it clearly means you actually do lack the experience, or haven't learned from the experience.	/r/MensRights	26/06/14 12:11 PM
3	100 peer-reviewed scientific studies have found male circumcision painful, traumatic, or psychologically harmful to men and boys Then you've been going about it the wrong way. I have been in enough arguments about the matter, and there's no counter argument to pointing out that FGM is banned and MGM may just be as harmful as FGM according to various studies. I'd rather say, that you need more experience in the matter than tell me that I don't have enough experience on it. The problem doesn't lie in the supposed arguments against MGM that might derail the subject, it lies in scarce support in banning MGM. It's sadly a 'pop…	/r/MensRights	26/06/14 12:05 PM
2	100 peer-reviewed scientific studies have found male circumcision painful, traumatic, or psychologically harmful to men and boys No you didn't. You're saying it shouldn't be a lead topic, because of supposed problems in it being derailed. First of all, I don't see that problem. Because stating FGM is banned, but just as harmful as MGM, should be sufficient argument to make religious nutters shut up. Secondly, why shouldn't mutilation be a lead topic, because of possible derailment? That makes no sense.	/r/MensRights	26/06/14 11:56 AM
5	100 peer-reviewed scientific studies have found male circumcision painful, traumatic, or psychologically harmful to men and boys It shouldn't be a lead topic, why? The problems you stated are easily circumvented by stating that FGM is banned and apperantly MGM may just be as harmful according to various studies.	/r/MensRights	26/06/14 11:52 AM
4	100 peer-reviewed scientific studies have found male circumcision painful, traumatic, or psychologically harmful to men and boys And? Therefore we shouldn't do anything at all?	/r/MensRights	26/06/14 11:47 AM
11	[TW: Jezebel] Women should masturbate, but men that masturbate are lonely creeps Males may not use any sexual toys that resemble a vagina? Women have toys that simulate a male sexual organ, men have got that in the form of those sleeves. Those sleeves are found weird, a dildo for example is not. Unless it's that gargantuan example you've posted. I'm sure that a gargantuan sleeve is found weird aswell.	/r/MensRights	09/06/14 05:43 PM
1	38yo woman avoids jail for raping 15yo boy because she was lonely The quote you've taken is about 2 children having sex with each other, then consent counts. A child with an adult however, child cannot consent to such a thing. That's the basis, there's no need to try and attach it to something else entirely. As for the second quote. Simply, no, are you completely retarded? Children in the context of the law are not expected to be able to make reasoned decisions about such things. Thus whether he/she seems to have agreed to it doesn't matter at all. Is it reall…	/r/MensRights	07/06/14 06:04 PM
1	38yo woman avoids jail for raping 15yo boy because she was lonely I am a random internet person to you, yes. You don't know whatever I do professionally however. Besides, that's a fallacy, an appeal to authority, as opposed to arguments. [read for more information on consent, the differences between adults and underage] (http://www.aifs.gov.au/cfca/pubs/factsheets/a142090/) Excerpt: Age of consent laws are important measures for protecting children and young people from sexual exploitation. Whether the sexual interaction between an adult and a person under the…	/r/MensRights	06/06/14 10:05 PM
1	38yo woman avoids jail for raping 15yo boy because she was lonely This will be my last response, as you seem to have a very hard time to grasp the concept of minors not being able to give consent to such a thing. I hope that this time I'll be more succesful, if not, well, I'm sorry for you. As you've pointed out, forcible rape by definition means that there is no consent, yet that does not mean that statutory rape is therefore with consent. Statutory rape is by definition also without consent, due to minors not being able to give consent. The difference betwee…	/r/MensRights	06/06/14 08:22 PM
1	38yo woman avoids jail for raping 15yo boy because she was lonely No, now you're just misconstrueing my words, I never solely talked about informed consent, but consent in the context of the law. Naive consent, willingness to have sex are meaningless, when it's explicitly stated that minors cannot express consent. If they can't, then the 'willingness to have sex' is entirely meaningless for the law. Let's say, for the sake of argument, that the boy was restrained, but he 'expressed his willingness to have sex', does this now make it not forcible rape? That's t…	/r/MensRights	06/06/14 04:58 PM
2	38yo woman avoids jail for raping 15yo boy because she was lonely Sigh, no, no, no. Please, can you get it through your head that there is no such thing as consent by a minor. Even if he did say he wanted to have sex, it still is no consent! Point being is that sex with a child is always at first seen as statutory rape, and only 'upgraded' if there is evidence of violence, coercion and/or restraint. If that evidence wasn't present, that's the reasoning he should use, not the words of the boy. The fact that the judge used an argument about consent is very telli…	/r/MensRights	06/06/14 03:27 PM
3	38yo woman avoids jail for raping 15yo boy because she was lonely I very well do understand. Never is consent used when involving a minor, not even when deciding if it was forcible rape or otherwise. That burden lies on evidence of violence and/or restraint. The law especially notes that minors cannot give consent for pretty much anything, which is why you need to have an adult give consent for various things. So if we follow that reasoning you cannot ever use the supposed consent of the boy to preclude forcible rape. Coercion is a thing nowadays. That said, w…	/r/MensRights	06/06/14 02:45 PM
2	38yo woman avoids jail for raping 15yo boy because she was lonely Scratch that knowledge, it's wrong. Unlawful sexual intercourse hasn't got anything to do with consent. Consent can never be used as a defence when a minor is involved. The difference between unlawful sexual intercourse and forcible rape is merely the proof, or lack thereof, of violence and/or restraint. The verdict was therefore wrong, the judge allowed the argument of consent as lessening the crime.	/r/MensRights	06/06/14 02:22 PM
7	38yo woman avoids jail for raping 15yo boy because she was lonely Honestly, you don't. As a male who's been through something remotely resembling this, it ruins your life.	/r/MensRights	06/06/14 02:09 PM
6	38yo woman avoids jail for raping 15yo boy because she was lonely Point taken. In my defense though, I was talking about the exact context of the law as written, not as to how it's interpreted by idiotic judges and jury.	/r/MensRights	06/06/14 01:47 PM
7	38yo woman avoids jail for raping 15yo boy because she was lonely [Seriously?] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statutory_rape) Please, before you make even more of a fool of yourself, read up on the subject. Statutory rape is synonymous to unlawful sexual intercourse, different countries use different terms for the same crime. The judge never should've used consent as an argument. If there was no proof of violence then, yes, it wasn't forced rape. It still remains statutory rape, or as its synonym unlawful sexual intercourse. Again, consent is irrelevent in this…	/r/MensRights	06/06/14 01:42 PM
10	38yo woman avoids jail for raping 15yo boy because she was lonely No, it does not. A child cannot legally consent. The difference you're making is if there's evidence of violence or coercion, then the statutory rape is changed into forcible rape. (7) Consent to sexual intercourse is not a defence to a charge of an offence under this section. [source] (http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/legis/sa/consol_act/clca1935262/s49.html) Besides statutory rape still warrants a jail sentence, its maximum sentence is 10 years in jail. Once again someone downplays crimes committe…	/r/MensRights	06/06/14 12:33 PM
31	38yo woman avoids jail for raping 15yo boy because she was lonely Sex with a child is always rape, no matter the possibility of consent (they can't legally consent). It should have no bearing on this case.	/r/MensRights	06/06/14 11:21 AM
