Saying no to physical abuse should be one of the most important things, not the last. You say we should accept physical abuse so as not to sound like Feminists, well, if you want that in your relationships go ahead, most of us don't want it, and I would probably leave a woman that did that.

I liked these lines: The thing is, Whitney: It's the 21st century here because big strong men made it the 21st century and keep it that way. Elsewhere it's the 12th century, because big strong men have made it that and keep it that. The future goes where men go and does what men make it do. If men go down the drain, the future will follow. In America, God willing, the future includes rights and opportunities for women — because men say it does.

Proof is for courts to decide. However, 5 officers involved in a shooting is very different than a horde of over 1000 Muslims committing dozens, possibly hundreds of crimes in 1 night against all white victims. Add in the fact that this happened in multiple cities that accepted refugees, and that we've seen this kind of thing before (from the British rape gangs to the frenzy in Tarir Square to Scandinavian rape statistics that show the 5% refugee population is responsible for up to 90% of all ra…

They are scared of the War on Women message used many times by Democrats and that they absolutely know is coming back during the Hillary run for President. They don't want t6o do anything to give the appearance they are siding with "rapists" against college women, and in fact will try to do the opposite. If a Republican gets in that isn't afraid to be non-politically correct, I expect changes will be made, but probably quietly.

The Democratic Party has always been about privileging 1 class (their voters) over another. It has been, and still is, their main way of attracting voters. Initially, they convinced white southerners to vote for them by elevating the rights of whites over blacks and frightening the whites with stories of slave revolts and blacks raping white women unless the Democrats were kept in power. They formed the KKK as an arm of the Democrat Party to suppress blacks after the Civil War and regain control…

What some see as "refusing women their rights" others see as "killing unborn babies". Personally, while I agree that a fetus is a living human being from the start, I believe that personhood and individual rights requires 1 additional thing: a brain. We deem the end of brain activity ("brain death") to be the end of life, so it only makes sense that the start of brain activity should be the start of individual life. That happens in the 2nd trimester, so I believe in (reluctantly) allowing aborti…

It's not your choice whether to allow pro-life people into the MRM or not. In fact, many are already here. Pro-life or pro-choice is not directly related to men's rights, so the official policy should be "who cares?". Some may also want to ban black people, gays, women or some other group from being part of the MRA, and IMO support for men's rights should be the only qualification needed to be an MRA, not a bunch of politically correct beliefs, a certain skin color, gender, or sexuality..

Well, I'm opposed to that warped version of diversity, and the idea that diversity is inherently good. I say choose the best people for the job. If that results in all white males, fine. If it results in no white males, fine. But purposely passing over more qualified candidates because of their gender and skin color is sexist and racist. Remember the dream of judging people by the content of their character, NOT the color of their skin (or gender). Judging people by the color of their skin is wh…

Right, so the goal is not truly "diversity", it's "fewer white males". "Diversity" is just the code word, and an inaccurate one at that.

C'mon, be honest, do you think she would have complained if the sales team were 100% black women? Would she have said "Where are the white men?" "Diversity" is a liberal code word for "non-white and female", so a group of all black women would be viewed as the height of the height of diversity, not lacking in it.

You partly answered your own question in the PS... advocating for any other group besides women is seen by feminists as anti-woman. Why? Because they view the caring, the money, the assistance available in the world as a finite resource, and so any that goes to men is some that is NOT going to women. If there are 300 beds for homeless women and 25 beds for homeless men, that means there are 25 fewer beds for women than there could be. And if you want to create a men's shelter with 100 additional…

No, actions speak louder than words, they don't tell me, they show me. They support Democrat candidates with money and aid, while attacking conservative women as "traitors to their gender". They lobby left-wing politicians and protest right-wingers. They are an integral part of the social justice triumvirate (race, gender, and sexual orientation) which is pure leftist authoritarianism at it's finest.

3rd wave Feminism, modern Feminism, is purely left-wing in America.

You don't need to be male to be an MRA, you only need to believe in equal rights. We don't have "real members" and "allies" like the Feminists, that's just a way of segregating people and making sure men "remember their place" and "shut up and listen" when the "real" feminists speak. Man or woman doesn't matter when you are an MRA, and many of the most popular and visible MRAs are women. (Check out GirlWritesWhat)

The leftist victim-mentality and "straight, white men are all oppressors" leads some women, gays, and minorities to be afraid to talk with or join groups that don't expressly shout "we're a safe space for everyone, yaaaay!"

Religious conservatives oppose abortion because it's literally taking a human life, not because they don't want women to have choices. Conservatives fully support a woman's choice to give up her child for adoption if she doesn't want to raise it herself, and in fact they often run orphanages and frequently adopt children into their families. A man choosing not to take part in raising his child doesn't kill the child, it's comparable to relinquishing parental duties in adoption, so conservatives …

I just watched the video and read the article and they didn't take sides at all. She quoted supporters of both sides, and simply stated the facts of the dispute.

It shouldn't have to be a left right issue, but unfortunately, for the most part it is. When even the tough-on-crime Republicans stand up and say "Hey, hold on, this is going too far, how about some consideration for due process?", you know you've jumped the shark.

The right to privacy is not a great leap from the 4th Amendment, which says "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated", and goes on to describe warrants.

If there is no legal distinction between them protecting and safeguarding holy matrimony, does it really matter?

As ahatabat said above, there is a difference between equal opportunity and equal outcomes. The equality you're talking about is equal opportunity, the one feminists talk about is equal outcomes, also called social justice.

I believe it has a lot to do with the demographic anomalies seen in education.

I'm not entirely sure what you are saying here, but there are plenty of poor Asian families, so it's not all about wealth.

I believe in merit and the best person getting the job, even if they are a different race than me. If Asians, as a whole, happen to study harder or do better on tests and thus get far more placements in university than their percentage of the population suggests they "should", then good for them, and the rest of us should look at what they are doing right and try to copy it (strong, intact families that emphasize schoolwork and reward learning, for example).

Of course not, it doesn't fit the left-wing media's chosen narrative. The fact that Fox does choose to report on it, on multiple nights with multiple people involved, should tell the MRM who is either on their side, or at the very least is willing to air stories and issues from the male / non-feminist perspective fairly, which is vitally important for spreading the message.

No, only up to the limit. It says if you can't honor them all because of the state limit (65%), you must try to the greatest extent possible (all the way up to the limit, not just ignore other orders). Say he works some overtime one pay period, and earns enough to pay his child support amount with only 45% of his wages that check. It means you must still deduct for other orders up to the 65% maximum, even if he normally can't pay anything on them because his usual checks are smaller.

Not usually, but each state is different.

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/oct/28/obamacare-sends-health-premiums-skyrocketing-by-as/?page=all The Affordable Care Act was supposed to make health care more affordable, but a study of insurance policies before and after Obamacare shows that average premiums have skyrocketed, for some groups by as much as 78 percent. Average insurance premiums in the sought-after 23-year-old demographic rose most dramatically, with men in that age group seeing an average 78.2 percent price increase …

The case of Thor is a bit different from typical "Ms. Male" characters. They actually gave her the name (title?) of Thor. She isn't called She-Thor the way She-Hulk or Ms Marvel have derivative names. The name/title belongs to whomever wields the hammer Mjolnir, and they gave it to the woman, reducing male Thor (renamed to Odinson) to using an axe. Marvel knows the tropes and did this (as well as other changes like turning the Falcon into Captain America) to try and appease the SJW crowd.

Brown had a reason to grab for the gun... he'd just committed a strong-arm robbery of a store (it was captured on video), and he was high on drugs. Plus he was much larger and stronger than the lone officer. Put those together and you get the string of events that most eyewitnesses and all the forensic evidence agree happened. And he was shot while running toward Wilson, not away from him. 3 independent forensics exams agreed on that. It's easy to tell that the bullets entered his front, none to…

I hadn't even heard about this before, thanks for posting the article! It just goes to show that ordinary folks are striking back against the tyranny of political correctness in a variety of arenas, and I hope it continues. Every victory is a victory for men's rights because it weakens the stranglehold of the SJWs/CHORFs, who are the guardians of the PC idea that men can't possibly have any problems or issues, they are the privileged oppressors!

The costs are much higher in the big cities (especially Tokyo) than the countryside. I lived in a town an hour south of Osaka, and it was much cheaper than living in the SF Bay Area. Many people leave the smaller, rural towns because there are few jobs there, and what is there is barely subsistence level income for most jobs.

In the US, conservatives are for individual rights for all. More and more are starting to see that men's rights are not equal with women's rights, and are standing up to do something about it. Not because "Men are an oppressed group and need our help", as that is leftist speech, but rather, everyone deserves an equal opportunity and a presumption of innocence rather than automatically hauling the man off to jail on a DV call, even if he's the one that called the police."

Personally, I believe that we should use brain activity as the start of thinking, individual human life since brain death is usually used to signal when a person has truly passed away. We should be scientifically consistent. Given that, abortions in the 1st trimester would be allowed for most any reason. However, once the child's brain begins working in the 2nd trimester, abortion would be limited as it is the taking of the life of a thinking human being, something that should only be done to sa…

Perhaps... not every member of a group believes the same things (that's true for progressives, MRAs, etc). So are we all here for the same things? Are there in fact some people here who simply want to add men to the existing Social Justice tools like Affirmative Action, quotas, preferences, etc as the means for achieving men's rights? If so, I'll fight against them because 2 wrongs don't make a right, and you don't end discrimination with even more discrimination. But if they are ardent progress…

Citizens United balanced the scales. If Unions are allowed to spend money to influence elections, so should businesses and private citizens, to keep it even. Nothing wrong with that. If you want to ban businesses and citizens from making their voices heard, then ban Union contributions too, but I'd rather everyone have a voice than no one. Besides, the influence of money is over-rated, and there are numerous cases of a candidate being outspent by several multiples and still winning.

2 things: 1) It's the internet, how do you conclusively determine someone's gender? 2) There are plenty of male feminists who'd be as much of a bother as female feminists, and there are plenty of female geeks who wouldn't be a bother at all and so should be welcomed. Given that, I think it'd be better to create an ideologically-defined space that is well-modded to remove trouble-makers (male or female) while allowing men and women of a like mind to get together and chat.

Now, not every Republican is a supporter of the MRM, but the party ideology as a whole supports liberty and equal opportunity.

It is arguable. They were opposed by the KKK and Democrats for 50+ years. Then, AFTER Republicans got them the right to vote over Democrat opposition, they both supported Prohibition in the '20's. That's not at all the same thing as supporting suffrage in the 19th century.

From your links, it seems clear to me that Suffragettes didn't have the full support of the KKK, but rather they happened to agree on the issue of prohibition. The Democrats (and their militant wing, the KKK) still fought tooth and nail to prevent women from getting the vote. At the request of Susan B. Anthony, Sen. A.A. Sargent, a Republican from California, introduced the 19th Amendment in 1878. Sargent’s amendment (also known as the Susan B. Anthony Amendment) was defeated four times by a Dem…

In other countries it may break down differently, but in the US, feminist organizations are part of the Democrat machine and are often full of social justice types.

You don't understand conservatism... it isn't a reflexive, unthinking "no changes are ever needed", it's about upholding the founding principles of America: life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Leftist totalitarianism has moved the country too far away from our founding ideals, so conservatism is about CHANGING THINGS, not upholding the new status quo. It is the leftists who want to keep their feminist ideology on track because it's going quite well for them right now.

If left-wing, you'll probably need to sell the idea on how it'll benefit women (less stress, more free time, etc) and the children (getting to spend time with both parents, positive male role model, etc) rather than any possible benefit to men/fathers (though you can certainly try bring that up too, but watch for the reaction to it, and if they seem turned off by it, go back to stressing how women and children would benefit)

Ok, but story after story around here addresses the legal side of things.

It depends upon why and how you are saying it. Are you reporting it to the police in order to have someone arrested and thrown in jail or kicked out of university?

1) Terms like "mansplaining" and "womyn" are not reserved to radical feminists, they are mainstream among feminists. 2) Our tone has little to no bearing on how we will be treated by feminists. A recent interview with GirlWritesWhat talked about how different men's groups with entirely opposite approaches (one being confrontational and the other being PC and non-confrontational) drew very similar reactions from Feminists groups. In fact, the non-confrontational one actually drew a greater amount…

She makes a great point, and this is exactly why other perspectives should not only be allowed, but encouraged. If man after man says "I ate at that restaurant in shorts and a tank-top, never had anyone tell me I wasn't dressed well enough!", then we know that it was unique to this woman or women. If, however, man after man says "I had a polo shirt and slacks and they didn't allow me in either because they wanted a minimum of a coat and tie," then we know it was NOT a gendered thing, but a dress…

American conservatives are all about individual liberty, while the "liberals" are for more government control, so that doesn't surprise me at all.

IMO, there is a distinction. Men and women are different, and children need to learn how to interact with and/or emulate both genders. Studies are showing that a child that grows up without a parent of their own gender often has more problems with self-identity, and if they are missing the opposite gender they have more difficulty relating to (and may be starved for attention from) that gender. Kids really need a mom and a dad, if at all possible. I realize death can take a parent early and that…

It can be very hard to tell if a woman is a feminist even if you are American, I imagine it must be even harder for a foreign visitor to tell. In general, women in big cities are more likely to be feminists, and you'll probably have better luck with a country girl. Leftist women are much more likely Feminist, so you might try a few questions like "what do you think of gun control?" If she's a supporter of gun control, likely a leftist, and thus more likely feminist. If she supports the 2nd amend…

I agree that Men's Rights should not advocate specifically for gay rights. Gay members should be welcome, just as if they were joining the NRA or a wildlife conservation group in order to advocate for gun rights or animals. Similarly, MRA is for men's rights, and I would hope that that would be respected by members even if they have other things they advocate for elsewhere, whether that be gun rights, animals, gay rights, or whatever.

I know this is adapted from the "how to be a male Feminist", but I think it really sends the wrong message to women who support the MRAs.

Because feminists and the law say women are unable to give consent if they are drunk. It doesn't matter if she is tearing your clothes off and screaming for you to give it to her good, she is not consenting under the law because she is literally unable to give a reasoned consent in that state, so having sex with her when she begs for it becomes rape. A drunk guy, on the other hand, is fully responsible for his actions and legally will be held liable for them.

Such a guy would most definitely be called "not a real geek" and geeks might ask questions of him just for the laugh value if nothing else.

That's a very good point about men being quizzed if they show up in a female space. Does anyone think a man would be welcomed without question at a yoga class that is all-women, or a quilting bee? "He must be here for some other reason, and likely not a good one" would be the prevailing attitude, and questions about "Why are you here" and "Just how much do you know about X?" would be expected. And I think women would feel no shame or guilt in feeling that way and asking those questions, but at t…

Nerds has a little different meaning... While both are regarded as socially maladjusted and ostracized, nerds are people who are very smart, do well in school (esp math and science), but don't necessarily know anything about pop culture. Geeks are avid pop culture fans but there is no assumption that they are good at math and science.

As a geek myself, I think outsiders are not fully understanding who is being accused and why.
