3	Nick Cannon Defends Kevin Hart, Calls Out Female Comedians For Past Homophobic Tweets because it's demanded. There's no way out in our culture; make a bad joke, or say something innocent that's taken out of context, and you're done. People keep trying to find ways to turn the screws, and will do so for years to come, for their own gratification. Most of the outrage in these situations comes from people who aren't affected or involved, acting like they represent the aggrieved parties somehow.	/r/PussyPassDenied	10/12/18 01:18 AM
1	How the media reports female child rapists. I've only seen a handful of these, but every other one was cast from the perspective of the teacher as the instigator. I'm unfamiliar with "Thought Catalog," admittedly.	/r/MensRights	18/01/17 11:51 PM
2	The ignorance and loathing is real You're picking on a lunatic fringe that is, quite literally, a fringe, and using it to justify a campaign of hatred against women. Think of how many people you encounter, even only in passing, on a daily basis; how many of them are like this? Objectively, how many times do you bump into a hateful, extreme feminist on an annual basis? Not "an obvious feminist, who would probably act like this, even though I've never seen it." Someone whose behavior you've experienced, or even been directly inform…	/r/MensRights	16/01/17 08:53 AM
2	That's 7665 days. How is "covered up the fact that she'd been previously raped by her stepfather" tantamount to "well, I guess she made up everything?"	/r/MensRights	05/01/17 04:21 PM
-4	Michigan Teacher Sentenced to Prison for Sex With Her Student. Female Judge Says, "there would be people here hanging from the ceiling trying to get every drop of blood," if This Were a Male Teacher and a Female Student. We live in a society where boys and girls are taught very different things, from an early age, about sex. This shapes how they react to it. If this was a male teacher and female students, the students would likely be traumatized as a result. Is that the case here, or were they just "LOL cool, had sex with a hot chick?" "How much harm was actually done" should absolutely be factored into the sentencing of any crime. No harm, no foul. Harm, foul. I wish I'd had an experienced introduction into sex…	/r/PussyPassDenied	29/09/16 11:26 PM
1	A friend of mine was king hit by his ex and made a good post about the double standards. Its getting a lot of support on facebook and i thought some people on reddit might like to see it He said that he himself found it humorous. I've seen situations where a woman was hit by her man, and everyone who knew them was just like "ignore it; they do that to each other at the time." A lot of this "inequality" is perception, and some of it is simply how reality is: men and women laugh different things off. We're equal, not equivalent. It's not all fine, but by the same token, "I realized -- months later -- that I was a victim" has never flown with me.	/r/MensRights	28/09/16 04:26 PM
0	Found this in the ladies bathroom at my shopping center. Very proud! Prostate cancer targets older men. If an 87-year-old man has prostate cancer and dies, did he die from prostate cancer? Default option is yes. Meanwhile, breast cancer affects women and, to a lesser extent, men of all ages, including children. Meanwhile, unlike this display, nobody is promoting working towards a cure for breast cancer on the basis of "fuck men" (who, again, can suffer from it... just saying). They're simply promoting working towards a cure for breast cancer. It was never based o…	/r/MensRights	10/04/16 06:47 PM
4	The Marine Corps gets it Marines are aggressive alpha male personalities who sign up to kill people for causes that haven't been in our national defense since before any current marine was born. Of the four I know personally, and well, one is a Vietnam vet who at least thought he was signing up to do the right thing. The other three wanted to carry a gun. Got an ex in the Navy. She caught the attention of some marine, whom she turned down. He got his buddies together within 3 hours and went after her. Brutal beating and…	/r/MensRights	23/02/16 03:42 AM
-3	How to fix "rape culture": Teach women not to throw their babies in the dumpster It is about nothing but PC. You're acting like an oppressed class, when the majority of business, religious, and political powers in existence are still represented by men. Your logic includes "Because 4% are overturned, the other 96% are also invalid" and "men's lives get ruined by false accusations when they happen, so lots of women are throwing babies in dumpsters." You're tying together a lot of unrelated points and contrived conclusions to justify finding a public awareness effort that is a…	/r/PussyPassDenied	08/01/16 09:57 AM
-16	How to fix "rape culture": Teach women not to throw their babies in the dumpster That is not actually explicitly offensive. A rational person would not take that on the assumption that the creator meant it personally. The natural male urge is to procreate. I'm not saying we can't stop it; on the contrary, the vast majority of men do an incredible job of keeping baser urges in check, but they're there. We are biologically driven to produce offspring, and we don't have to stop at one at a time (again, biologically). In contrast, a woman throwing her baby in a dumpster is actin…	/r/PussyPassDenied	08/01/16 09:50 AM
4	Men are not monsters: Last week three of my four boys were herded into school-sponsored assemblies and asked to stand, raise their hands and pledge to never, ever hurt a woman. Their female classmates weren’t required to make a similar pledge. That's not popular to assert here. They do have a certain point; it's one thing to say that men do most of a certain thing. It's another to treat all males as though they're about to. I think they take it too far without meaning to: they don't understand what it's like on the other side of the fence, and they don't acknowledge a lot of cultural factors.	/r/MensRights	26/11/15 02:12 AM
1	Men are not monsters: Last week three of my four boys were herded into school-sponsored assemblies and asked to stand, raise their hands and pledge to never, ever hurt a woman. Their female classmates weren’t required to make a similar pledge. Has there been a similar study with regards to battered men, i.e. how many men in abusive relationships are also abusers? According to the study being quoted, which I am not questioning the legitimacy of insofar as it goes, 38% of battered women are not violence-prone. The only thing we know of the 62% majority is that they deliver violence "in equal measure." There's a lot of data missing. If a man beats his wife repeatedly, and she finally starts to hit him back, she would classify as "violenc…	/r/MensRights	26/11/15 01:59 AM

6	I still think you guys are pretty extreme, but this post definitely helped me to put some things in perspective (fair warning: it's a bit long) (x-post /r/tumblrinaction) tl,dnr: In my own personal experience, women still have a harder time than man in terms of being respected as individuals, but Men's Rights advocates react just like feminists do, as though paranoid that a millennia-old order is about to be turned upside-down. That said, having read this post and done a little digging, it seems difficult to deny that feminism is not the noble cause it once was, and that there is no place for historical models of the mindset presently. The Men's Rights people tha…	/r/MensRights	12/07/15 10:11 AM
3	18 year old who went on crime spree that got deputy killed says she was just a terrified girl manipulated by an older man. Jury denies pass, guilty of murder. Wait... she didn't shoot anyone, and she testified that her boyfriend was threatening her family with a gun -- with him having been arrested for attempted murder in the past?	/r/PussyPassDenied	09/07/15 04:59 AM
-1	The top female model made $42 million last year while the top male model only made $1.5 million. Its time to close this wage gap! /sarcasm The difference here is stark, but it's also reflected in what the models bring in. The female modeling industry is orders of magnitude more profitable than male modeling. I'd be interested in seeing some data on the percentages; how much a female model takes home from what she brings in, relative to what the male receives. Meanwhile, in other high-profile industries where women earn noticeably less than men, the difference is not reflected in a difference in earnings. Popular female film and TV …	/r/MensRights	09/07/15 01:41 AM
226	Conan on sexism I don't know this for certain, but I'm going to assume that a woman who referred to men as 'penises' in an official email at this level would not only face the same disciplinary procedures but would also be torn to pieces by /r/MensRights for doing so.	/r/MensRights	25/06/15 01:48 PM
1	Reddit Takes Down Post About Woman-on-Man Sexual Assault I grew up in Amherst. I'm not surprised that they wouldn't re-admit him. It's one of the country's most prestigious liberal arts schools. While I was living there, Mel Gibson and Bill Clinton both showed up to tour the school for their kids, on the same day (traffic was a huge bitch). It's a very, very good school, but the fact that someone got blackout drunk at a party in the first place, then got embroiled in a sexual assault scheme... it'd turn them on their heads. It's not exactly a party sc…	/r/MensRights	12/06/15 03:40 AM
-5	TIL: The “women are wonderful” effect is a phenomenon found in psychological research in which people associate more positive attributes with women as compared to men. This effect reflects an emotional bias toward women as a general case. • /r/todayilearned So, let me get this straight: Men still have the edge in big business, in politics, and in professional career earnings. We're still looked at as the leaders of our families, with a condescending nod towards our female companions "getting us to do what they want" that's prevalent in films, TV shows, and nowhere else. Unbiased statistics, which aren't compiled for the sake of showing one side of the argument or the other to begin with, show that while the wage gap is closing in the 24-36 year-old…	/r/MensRights	23/05/15 10:40 PM
-4	Men are committing suicide more than women everywhere in the world. Why? There are many factors involved in suicide. Age and ethnicity are also a big part. 70% of all suicides in the United States are white males, so, why are you focusing on women, and not on race? You could spin this a different way, and make it a white power slogan; "white people commit suicide most often because the blacks are stealing our jobs and taking our women!" It'd be the exact same thing, because you'd be leaving a lot out to pick on a particular demographic that clearly isn't representati…	/r/MensRights	20/05/15 10:08 PM
-9	Male Privilege Are you... are you seriously taking disproportionate death and injury rates as a sign of mens' rights being infringed? Fewer women die in combat because they aren't allowed in combat roles. Most of the women I know already consider this unfair. Fewer women are involved in industrial accidents because fewer women are employed in dangerous industries. If you could find applicant data relevant to how many jobs are actually held by women, I'd be interested in seeing that. It's nice to know that more…	/r/MensRights	19/04/15 10:37 PM
-2	'She has no right to be supported for life': Judge tells ex-wife of millionaire racehorse vet to get a job in landmark divorce case. My only issue with this is that the woman, who--by agreement with her husband--did not work while they were together, is now supposed to find work, raise at least one young child, and subsequently be financially sound when her own retirement age is reached in roughly 15 years. The man is a multi-millionaire; no, he shouldn't have to pay every penny of her upkeep forever, and she should be expected to find work, but if he's been remotely responsible financially it shouldn't be financially "ruinou…	/r/MensRights	23/02/15 09:46 PM
-1	There is not a monopoly on victimhood. "Victimhood" isn't something you should be striving for in the first place. The only thing more pitiful than a group of people who can't see past their own issues to the point of realizing that they are desperately grasping at being victims is another group of people who look at that from an outside perspective, get jealous, and do the same thing. Victims don't generally believe they're special. Quite the opposite.	/r/MensRights	31/05/14 03:11 AM
1	My OKCupid experiment is over. FINALLY was deleted/banned. x-post /r/OKCupid I don't see the big deal here. The attitude being expressed smacks of a slightly degrading attitude towards the women who responded; if a girl found you cute, was after casual sex herself, and enjoyed the night, where's the issue?	/r/seduction	07/01/14 08:04 AM

-22	Man asks do I know you. Says No I dont. Walks away. Files police report I'm sorry, but I'm completely okay with this. "Don't I know you?" is the oldest line in the book for this sort of thing. If you're honestly suffering from amnesia, and you seriously can't remember whether or not you actually do know somebody upon seeing them clearly, try to think of a less overtly threatening manner (especially if the subject is a young woman) than tailing her until she enters a high-floor parking garage and confronting her there. More sexual assaults are carried out against men…	/r/MensRights	26/10/12 09:37 AM
