2	Why is there such a miscommunication between men and women? I think what many people that argue her point don't seem to understand is that in the past, sure, women were treated as property, but men were treated as less then property. I've never heard of a slavemaster having to sacrifice his life to win a slave, but throughout human history, the so-called men-codified laws she claim effectively made men the ones doing the dirty work so the women can live guilt-free. Even before the Common Era, men were the ones drafted in Rome, China, and basically every …	/r/MensRights	28/06/23 03:10 AM

7	Interesting internal bias towards International Men's Day as seen through an Instagram comment section discussion. Yeah. Pretty sure if the roles were reversed (i.e. a celebration of men's day without celebrating a women's day) even non-feminist women would be questioning the bias. Yet when men even just google for men's day on international women's day it's somehow bad now?	/r/MensRights	22/03/23 12:31 AM
6	Showing interest is an affront? I agree. Men are effectively dying of thirst in a desert, while women are drowning in the sea. You could even go deeper in this metaphor and say the women are dying of thirst too but can't drink the seawater or something. I think this difference causes different perceptions for men and women. A woman, who probably has more experience of getting hit on, will envision the worst possible case for them -- creepy guy ogling, stalking, the full works. A man, who would imagine himself doing the "hittin…	/r/MensRights	21/03/23 04:52 PM
2	Showing interest is an affront? partially trauma is up to the perception Actually I'm sorta interested in this topic. What would the psychological treatment be for someone who experiences trauma of this sort? And would such traumatic responses be indicative of underlying mental conditions, or would it be moreso because of environmental factors like exposure to online forums that propagate this sort of narcissistic behaviour? (sorta like a nature versus nurture question here)	/r/MensRights	21/03/23 04:40 PM
24	My boyfriend thought that when I said "I hate how men think this way," that I was including him in that. Honestly, I kept myself subscribed to it back when I hadn't found this sub. I'd been convinced that my negative thoughts about TwoX was internalised misogyny or some BS, and maybe if I spent longer there I'd understand their point-of-view better. Ironically enough, as I spent longer there I was linked to this sub by someone criticising this sub, and had a "hey what they're saying about this sub isn't half as bad as they claim it to be" moment. So now I'm here, lol. It's really funny how they're …	/r/MensRights	20/03/23 05:21 PM
5	Men who kill a woman don't kill her because she's a woman. They're just generally criminals. ??? When did I say that? I'm commenting on you claiming that this is an extreme subreddit.	/r/MensRights	16/02/23 12:07 AM
14	So discouraged I think it's completely fine to be okay with getting conscripted to fight to protect your country, while simultaneously criticising the fact that women are exempt from said conscription. After all, if your country is invaded, wouldn't more hands be more useful?	/r/MensRights	15/02/23 01:56 AM
3	Woman blames men for her own insecurities regarding breast sizes. Her response when I call her out on her misandry. Yeah, exactly. If you come into an argument already hostile, don't expect the other guy to respond in a nice way. Soooo many better ways OP could've worded that.	/r/MensRights	12/02/23 01:59 AM
1	Woman blames men for her own insecurities regarding breast sizes. Her response when I call her out on her misandry. And they're justifiably shit on by even men outside this sub for that reason. We're not any better if we do the same.	/r/MensRights	12/02/23 01:58 AM
14	Men who kill a woman don't kill her because she's a woman. They're just generally criminals. "Hey, not all men are insane wife murderers" is an extreme view?	/r/MensRights	10/02/23 12:05 AM
7	Who are the other 81%? Thanks! Problem is whenever I write this way it always results in a huuuge block of text which the target audience wouldn't actually read, which kinda defeats the purpose of me writing it in the first place ¯\_(ツ)_/¯	/r/MensRights	08/02/23 05:15 AM
26	Who are the other 81%? The problem is the use of the comparative statistic. It suggests an "imbalance", it suggests that the problem is the imbalance between both groups and not something else. (the following stats are made-up) For instance, if I want to make a statement about imbalance in education for black children, I'll probably use a statistic like "75% of schoolchildren are white". If I want to criticise graduation biases against women, I could use a statistic like "75% of degree-holders are men". In the above e…	/r/MensRights	08/02/23 01:00 AM
21	Left's "equity" push has 'deeply demoralized' men and the consequences are 'huge': Douglas Murray Hey, women-sided STEM isn't considered STEM?? Sounds pretty misogynistic to me!	/r/MensRights	01/02/23 03:57 PM

1	As men, we must know our worth and avoid sacrificing ourselves for a society that is increasingly hostile and antagonistic towards men Damn, I guess those Ukrainian soldiers fighting for their country's right to exist are horrible. I guess that when I spent my 2 years as a conscript my life was just as unrespectable as those in power saw it. I guess those American soldiers who died because their higher ups told them to go somewhere shouldn't be respected. Seriously, this lack of nuance is the exact thing that's so problematic in today's society, we've gotta do better. There's plenty of things wrong with the way the US military …	/r/MensRights	25/01/23 01:40 AM
3	What about the Working Man? The problem is the conclusions drawn from the word "patriarchy" and the implications of the word. It places the blame on men as a whole. Men are responsible for the top 10% of men being entitled rich fucks. Men need to step aside, give up opportunities for women to shine. Men have better rights than women obviously because the top 10% of society being men suggests a pattern, hence women must be oppressed. The term "patriarchy" arbitrarily draws a circle around the top 10% of society, notices tha…	/r/MensRights	25/01/23 01:27 AM
4	What about the Working Man? I know this dolt deleted their comments, but just to counter his/her points for others: There's a problem is saying men in power = patriarchy. Putin is a PERSON in power, and he's harmful. There's plenty of women in power -- businesswomen, female celebrities, female politicians, who give as much as a fuck for anyone as their male counterparts. I live in a place where male-only conscription exists, and women in power give just as many shits as the men in power do. Criticising men in power for bei…	/r/MensRights	25/01/23 01:22 AM
4	What about the Working Man? You know, that's an interesting thing. Your definition, according to Wikipedia, is correct. Men do occupy the top percentage of society. The problem here is the conclusions that feminism draws from it. Patriarchy refers to males occupying positions of power in society. Feminism concludes that that means then men are treated better. Feminism concludes that that means men receive better opportunities, have better rights. Feminism concludes that that means women are oppressed. I mean, if men receiv…	/r/MensRights	24/01/23 04:33 PM
27	I posted on a marriage thread about my wife's effort in the bedroom vs mine an it's all my fault apparently! Of course it's HER day, because every other day is MAN'S day! /s	/r/MensRights	16/01/23 03:06 PM
23	What are you guys thoughts on people who call men privileged? I think the problem is that the top of society (e.g. wealthy businessmen, engineers, CEOs) isoverwhelmingly men, too. But feminism as a whole extrapolates this to mean that society favours men, when the truth is that in general men tend to occupy both extremes of the wealth spectrum. It's far easier and lower effort to make a general judgement (men occupy top of society --> hence men favoured), rather than actually looking into the nuances as you've done.	/r/MensRights	11/01/23 11:08 AM
1	Why does girl power often involve putting men down? Yeah, I agree. That's the nuance that's needed to explain these differences in genders, but it's easier for feminists to just say "haha patriarchy" and leave it at that. By nuance on the wage gap, I meant looking deeper into things like statistics using an average of the wages. Of course men would earn a higher average, given that in general men tend to prefer college majors, degrees and vocations that end up with higher wages than women (e.g. engineering degrees versus gender studies), childcar…	/r/MensRights	02/01/23 01:48 AM
38	Why does girl power often involve putting men down? Yeah, that's the problem. Feminism assumes that all men are implicitly part of some inherently patriarchal community. Rather than more nuanced explanations for things like CEOs being chiefly male, the "wage gap", male sportsmen being paid more, they pin it all on this hazy, vague idea of a "patriarchy" because it's fucking easy. Imagine if for every problem in the world or in your life, you could just attribute it to one giant vague idea instead of having to actually look deeper into it.	/r/MensRights	01/01/23 02:34 AM
1	Taiwan to extend conscription to a year for all 18 year old males (only males). Who said I was against it? I myself said I disagree with many parts of how conscription is done in my country. Your initial statement criticised conscription in general, not solely male-only conscription, hence my entire argument was on proving that some countries do, in fact, need conscription. Regardless, I'm entirely in favour of conscripting women too -- if conscription is necessary then women should be involved too.	/r/MensRights	29/12/22 05:46 PM
1	Taiwan to extend conscription to a year for all 18 year old males (only males). Yes. The active military of the nations I spoke of are roughly the same size as the conscript military, and our hardware is a pretty decent match judging from the sources I've checked. Of course, much much larger nations like India and China would see us as no threat, but there's little chance of them invading us out of nowhere. We deal with the closer threats, if China comes then the whole region will be involved, anyway. The point is, conscription does has its place in geopolitical terms. And …	/r/MensRights	29/12/22 02:49 AM
5	I have a hypothesis that anywhere you find women being mistreated, you find men being roughly equally mistreated or worse. I think these frustration-borne statements are normal -- I mean, I think most people wouldn't come here unless they've gone through sufficient frustration to get past the unspoken ban on "MRA" communities. Even feminist subs are full of frustration-borne rhetoric from things shitty people in their lives do, which of course out of frustration they attribute it to men, patriarchy, etc. The problem is that our communities are judged based on these frustration-borne statements, while theirs are acce…	/r/MensRights	28/12/22 02:37 AM
6	Taiwan to extend conscription to a year for all 18 year old males (only males). For large nations with large populations, sure. I think you're overestimating the size of small nations with conscription. And just to be clear I'm not talking out of my ass, I've been conscripted before as part of a male-only conscription for my tiny-ass country. I disagree with many parts of my country's conscription, but I also don't see how the country survives without any form of conscription.	/r/MensRights	28/12/22 02:24 AM
5	Article denounces r/mensrights, praises menslib for "deradicalizing men." Yeah lol. There's some misogynistic shit sometimes, but those are usually reserved to comments -- meanwhile 2X has highly-upvoted, gilded posts of misandry almost weekly. I used to think the MRM was a bunch of incels, but subscribing to 2X slowly made me realise I was basically gaslighting myself. Ironically enough, 2X brought me here :L	/r/MensRights	11/12/22 12:25 AM
3	What's the problem non-MRMs and/or anti-MRMs have with gym and physical exercising? I mean, therapy and being emotional are part of being human. There's still a nuance here -- and trying to say "being emotional == plagued by feminism" comes off as disregarding the emotions of men. You can both be strong yet have emotions.	/r/MensRights	07/12/22 01:56 AM
