| 8 | Are 40% of child soldiers female or is just another one of the made up feminist statistics?Don't get me wrong, that's entirely awful, but there's a certain level of injustice at which you get my attention and sympathy and beyond that it's just incomprehensible. I really don't think there's any value in decided whether a boy who was made to shoot his own mother and burn his village has a worse life than a girl who is a sex slave. Either way, I want to help both of them. Oppression Olympics is pointless. | /r/MensRights | 16/10/13 03:08 AM |

This does not mean that we must accept without judgment all elective groups that people participate in. Someone who joins a group is endorsing the beliefs/actions of that group as a whole, whether or not they share in them, but it would still be incorrect to assume that everyone in the group shares them.

Because only girls have to do chores, apparently.I'm not painting anyone as anything, particularly not as "entitled", because I hate the way that words gets abused. I've never heard the word entitled use as a derogatory term by anyone I was interested in continuing to speak to.

| 8 | Feminist website Jezebel forced to apologize over making fun of Chris Brown sex abuseI think that his point is this: The fact that they were pressured into an apology is a sign that the tone of the conversation is changing to be more male positive. By showing appreciation for the apology piece we can help shift the conversation even further to the point where they are no longer writing pieces that require an apology to begin with. It doesn't matter as much whether the apology is sincere as long as they are convinced that there is no audience for their old material anymore. | /r/MensRights | 11/10/13 04:58 PM |

This reinforces the perception that men must somehow prove themselves to women and women must somehow be “won over” by a man to have sex with him. This isn’t consent, it’s mutually reinforced manipulation. (Crosspost from r/sex)I guess there are two perspectives on the number of couples in the world: Mine- some of these people must be decent people who respect each other or it's likely they wouldn't last, and Yours- most or all of those men are fools and most or all of those women are manipulators.

Thankfully without operation.Actually, none of them would have been, because that study didn't use hormone treatment and delayed-puberty hormone therapy doesn't sterilize those who go back to their birth sex. I am trying hard to meet your criticisms fairly, but you have to actually read what I put here if you expect to have a fair and balanced discussion. Also, the Dutch study vetted their patients better and all of the patients who were approved for delayed-puberty hormone therapy proceeded with their transition. | /r/MensRights | 01/10/13 09:27 PM |

I am approaching this with the understanding that, aside from freezing gametes, all trans people are sterile anyways. I can't answer on behalf of the trans community or any trans individuals, but my experience leads me to the conclusion that it is likely trans people would choose to have their body not altered by an incorrect puberty rather than their fertility.

The belief that dating, romancing, or hooking up is a game or an art form rather than, say, a conversation is not just misogynistic. I would dare to call the whole concept anti-human.

Fetishizing someone's bisexuality is not really any different than fetishizing someone's race. | /r/MensRights | 26/09/13 01:22 PM |
| 12 | Common MRA myths debunked!I don't disagree with anything else you're saying, but I just want to go on record saying that lie detector tests don't work. The confessions you get from someone afraid of submitting to a lie detector are actually much more reliable than the results you get from the test itself. | /r/MensRights | 26/09/13 01:17 PM |
| 1 | Two months ago I made an infographic on male privilege, well, it sucked, so here's a new and better one! [Fixed]Personally, I don't like the idea of calling individuals suicide "victims". A more neutral way to express the same idea, and the way that is being used more by psychologists, would be "suicides completed". | /r/MensRights | 26/09/13 01:00 PM |
| 1 | Anyone else notice that all the "bad male" posts are voted to the top and all the "bad female" posts are buried?When I run this with the current values of 2,551 points (52% like it) I get 62,775 total; 32,643 up; 30112 down. That is more votes than reddit is showing meaning that they are actually fudging the numbers down. 30k people downvoted that... | /r/MensRights | 25/09/13 11:27 PM |
| 1 | Anyone else notice that all the "bad male" posts are voted to the top and all the "bad female" posts are buried?If you really want to know how many votes something has then you have to calculate: eq1) total = up + down eq2) displayed = up - down eq3) up = like% * total the knowns are the like% and the displayed value. We have 3 equations and 3 unknowns; I think we can do this. So for instance right now this is showing 4 points (58% like it), 14 upvotes, 10 downvotes. so, let's say we want to solve for total first: eq2) 4 = up - down, do some shifting to get> down = up - 4 eq3) up = 0.58 * total eq1) total… | /r/MensRights | 25/09/13 11:21 PM |
| 1 | Breeding an Angry New Generation of Circumcised MenI do not support circumcision in First World countries, but I am not angry that it happened to me. I like my penis and the way it is now is the only way I have ever known it. I am interested to know what people think about the link between circumcision and STI prevention in areas with little or no access to condoms. | /r/MensRights | 25/09/13 10:58 PM |
| 1 | Blasphemous cartoon on trial. Found not guilty. (Cartoon about Male Genital Mutilation) X-Post to R/Atheism (sorry)Ugh, NSFW [gore] That was grotesque. It makes a fair point, but ugh. | /r/MensRights | 25/09/13 10:53 PM |
| 1 | Educate a ManEducate and individual and you have taught an individual. What that individual chooses to do with that knowledge is dependent upon many different factors including genetics, upbringing, and culture. | /r/MensRights | 25/09/13 10:47 PM |
| 2 | You gotta see this one. Headline: feminist decides objectivity isnt objective enough. NEW idea for objectivity: whatever feminists say is true.This is actually pretty insulting to everyone, but particularly to female scientists. | /r/MensRights | 25/09/13 10:40 PM |
| 2 | Looks like hate speech based on a specific gender only applies if the gender is female.I have only ever gotten one thing removed from Facebook and that was explicitly advocating violence against Arabs. Repeated usage of "faggot" and "cunt" doesn't appear to bother FB staff. My assumption is just that their policies are complete bullshit. | /r/MensRights | 25/09/13 09:26 PM |
| 2 | Boston College Football Motto "Be a Dude" attacked as gender insensitive, alienating, and stereotype-perpetuating... Huh?Don't Be That Guy Oh! I did not know about the specific "Don't Be That Guy" campaign. That makes more sense now. | /r/MensRights | 24/09/13 07:05 PM |
| 1 | On Unwanted Pregnancies: Why don't men's rights activists advocate "No condom, no sex"?http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/03/male-birth-control-reversible_n_1400708.html I feel like people should really be promoting this. | /r/MensRights | 24/09/13 06:44 PM |
| 2 | Boston College Football Motto "Be a Dude" attacked as gender insensitive, alienating, and stereotype-perpetuating... Huh?I was under the impression that both dude and guy are now considered primarily gender-neutral, yeah? | /r/MensRights | 24/09/13 05:55 PM |
| 0 | The end of the circumcision debate... (drum-roll)I identify as liberal, but I totally support the self-ownership idea (though I may be the exception?). I'm a little unsure about heroin, though. I think it is more complex than the situation with weed, because of the greater likelihood to have an addict impose upon the rest of society via homelessness or medical expenses that they can't afford. If you want to link to a different subreddit for discussion I would be interested in learning more about the pros and cons. | /r/MensRights | 03/07/12 04:01 PM |
