Man here. Fascinated about this group and would be happy to throw in my personal interest in each of these. 1.) Yes. Of course. I don't need to be thanked or anything, but just understand sometimes my position has certain expectations of me as a man that aren't always easy to handle. 2.) Yes. I always hated when people said you have to share the same interests. I would be completely turned off by a woman who likes working on cars or doing carpentry like me. But I find things like knowing how to …

Wikipedia is simply not a good source for hot button issues. This has been proven on the rape page (prison rape is a no-no to discuss there), homosexuality page (with no source to back it up other than an empty statement from a largely unreliable source, the first opening section insists that homosexuality is from eugenics and that there is no environmental or parenting factor involved, which flies in the face of mountains of evidence that state otherwise. Later the page contradicts itself many,…

I agree. Video games do need more female characters. Ones that are part of the cannon fodder. When's the last time you played an FPS and shot a woman? The only exception to this that comes to mind is with Bethesda's Elder Scrolls and Fallout games, but those aren't exactly set in the realm of reality. Assassin's Creed's main director is a woman and they've pain stakingly worked with this issue. Women, historically, have no place in battle. You have a couple of exceptions here and there (in the f…

I'm sorry, your lengthy reply? You gave me one source for comparison of how the two procedures are compared verbally (or as you would say, how one would apologize for it). Maybe you should actually argue against what you believe was intellectually dishonest instead of crying for my attention like a little child. It's clearly time to leave MR. You guys are so separated from reality that you can't see there really are differences between anything. I'm tired of all the woman hating and whining abou…

I personally love the vague symptoms of ADHD. Distracted easily, can't pay attention, procrastinates, can't finish tasks, several versions of what can be summed up as "moves a lot", impatient, frequently interrupts others, and others. I guess really it just shows that the majority of co-workers and classmates I've ever had have ADHD. Nevermind children, lol. It's just terrifying to me to find out that nearly 3 million children are medicated for it. Probably higher now since those numbers are fro…

Which topic are we talking about? And in either case, generally speaking it would be an effect of environment?
/r/MensRights26/06/13 12:34 AM

No, it doesn't. It just shows that gay parents are more likely to have openly gay kids. Sure it does. Because within that range the article proposes (16% to 57%) that the children of homosexual parents end up homosexual themselves would be a fitting range for how much we can expect the heterosexual population to be in utter denial and closet cases, but in reality are gay too. (That was sarcasm by the way). Wait, no, it was you. I felt I had to point out my sarcasm, because you missed that bit. I…

Take your pick about most any theory. A couple have studies, all of which have huge holes in them. Can't be replicated (which can easily be part of the statistical error that's to be expected shown in basic statistics), not removing environment (twin studies usually fail this), and the use of volunteers who will potentially have bias in the results, giving a non-random sample. Also a quick source that points out homosexual parents are more likely to have homosexual children. A quick aside. I nev…

At the risk of getting all sorts of shit, I've seen plenty of Reddit toss out pretty solid science and/or backup utterly crap science/anecdotes as the population norm/BS conclusions because it fits their world view and nothing else. Two great examples: Study after study is done on homosexuality being genetic. Not one to date (and correct me if I'm wrong) has ever shown any connection to biology, or at least has done so where we can reasonably conclude that environment had little to no impact (i.…

If gender played little/no role in social behavior (and not vice versa), why would practically every culture in the world across thousands of years, connected to one another or not, place men as hunters/warriors/head of the family (or equivalent) while women are the gathers/stayed at the home/village, general care takers, etc? If gender roles are a social construct, why is it even today amongst all the pressure to find "equality" that men and women both strongly move toward their respective "rol…

As a man, yes, you have a choice. As a child, you have no choice about largely any matters. Funny to think that with all the things a parent can (and does) do to their child, circumcision is one of the least worrisome things, assuming we treat circumcision as bad.

You should find out of your experience has more to do with being circumcised (or even the rare instance of it being botched in some manner, but that doesn't sound like the case here) or if it's something else? We're also talking anecdotes. I could give my position, but what value does that have? Largely none here at least since it doesn't feed the agenda.

There's a lot of groups that don't get government funding. Why would a men's hotline be any different? The poster may well have had good intentions, but we both know all that's going to happen is the call line with be harassed and tie up the lines for what should be helping others. This is not benefiting anyone: This is making MR look like shit and potentially leave those who need attention unable to get through.

This is all fed by the idea that all of our issues are 100% biological (ever heard of depression being caused by a chemical imbalance, to hell with anything in your environment or your own mentality causing it). Combine that with an annoying child (how many kids aren't?) and you've got yourself this idea that most children have a mental problem and a pill can cure it. The worst part of all of this is the biological viewpoint of all moods is so deep that even a pseudo-intellectual group like foun…

Ah, a study from a group that's dedicated to stopping circumcision ends up concluding that the most sensitive parts of the penis are in the foreskin? Definitely didn't see that coming. The American Academy of Pediatrics is against NOCIRC because of how they more or less distort the truth to get what they want said out. It's like getting rape statistics from RAINN. And I don't need to check out a video from some oddball with a site also dedicated to lying bending the truth about circumcision. Jus…

Your first article points out that quite a dramatic number of people come forward about it when they find out there's a place to go. I don't believe the call center is at all needed for such small numbers, but the campaign to bring it to light makes sense. I'm not here to state that male circumcision isn't a 'big deal'. I'm here to say you're comparing two completely different things. It's making this subreddit look bad and I know I'm not the only one that's getting sick of this type of crap. We…

Why are you talking about collective 'suffering'? The common cold puts both of these issues to shame if we're going to talk about effects summed together over a population. We can argue that intent doesn't matter here. Fair enough. The fact that the design of female circumcision is to deter/stop sex (and does) while male circumcision is not to stop sex (and does not) shows itself. Intending to or not, one severely harms sexual performance. The other does not. Let me ask you something. How many m…

Female circumcision is by far more extreme and severe than male circumcision. The very purpose of female circumcision is to stop/deter sexual activity by removing the parts that provide the most pleasure as well as some practices working to close up most of the vagina, rendering sex as a very painful practice. Male circumcision leaves the patient with a fully functioning penis that has little change in sexual performance and does not seek to purposely deter sex. The two are on completely differe…

While little research has been done on boy-on-boy sexual hazing, almost 10 percent of high school males reported being victims of rape, forced oral sex or other forms of sexual assault by their peers, according to a 2009 study in the Journal of Youth and Adolescence. What else needs to be said? There's little research done in the area, but everything indicates that this happens. A lot! It'd be nice to see some outrage about raping males for once.

Freedom and equality is allowing a person to continue to have their gender roles and identity if they want it. I take pride in identifying with my masculine traits and I know a lot of women that relish their feminine traits. I think it's wrong to treat gender roles and identity like they're a bane of humanity.

From what I've experienced, but "nice" shows a lack of confidence, at least from the perspective of attraction. If a woman came up to me and asked me to buy her a drink, which sounds more confident? "Sure thing!" or "Nope." The second one sounds like an asshole to many, but he would have no obligation to offer anything to a woman and holds his ground because he has nothing to prove. And with someone saying no properly, a woman will very likely LOVE being rejected just because it's something that…

I don't see how you figure homosexual boys are more vulnerable. They have support groups and tons of people that'll lose their shit in stopping any bullying, whether related to their sexual preference or not, for homosexuals. Not so much concerned about general bullying. And there was no mention about him being exceptionally unstable. I was stating that teenagers generally are not as emotionally stable. He's not, at least as far as I was stating, in any unusual context in that regard.

Women want a confident man. It doesn't matter if that's an asshole or a nice guy (as if that's the whole spectrum). Most men fake it to make it when they've got their chests puffed up enough that women notice them. I've got a source that can explain it all a lot better, point out exactly how true what I'm saying is, and note that whether it's for good or bad, there is a 'game' in attracting women.

This reminds me of the whole thing about a kid committing suicide because they were called gay in school (which instead of just calling it bullying, as if no straight person has ever been called a fag, instead he is presumed to surely have been gay if he was called that, and it becomes a homophobic attack). The kid did it to himself. No sane person, even an emotionally unstable teenager, kills themselves over one incident about sexting where he ended up with a warning. Something else surely must…

If the kid was arrested of the act, then we'd have a lot to talk about. All he got was a warning. Probably a half assed warning by a cop who walked off after a couple of sentences. The kid shot himself. I have a feeling there's a lot more to this story than we're getting.

Taking a quick tour of the Sims game mods, it's female players that are adding lingerie, sexier eyes, smaller outfits, and many other sexy additions to the game. One thing that pisses me off about Sims 3 in particular is that the men are terribly feminized. Mannerisms, facial features (particularly the eyes and lashes), rounded faces and many other things are VERY feminine. Another fun example. Assassins Creed series. A good majority of the women in the game are sexual or sexualized. The creator…

No one can know what it's like to jump off the top of a skyscraper without actually doing it. I guess we'll all have to do it personally just to find out if it's deadly, how fast we'll travel down, how the air will feel as we fall through it, etc. Definitely can't reason, measure, or imagine how it all would happen. On a more serious note, those who suffer from something can't see the forest for the trees.

I'm convinced that this video was sponsored by Subway thanks to the end. In all seriousness, I wonder what could have been done if the cab driver didn't have someone video taping for proof. Or a cop wasn't around. Or someone who had no clue what was going on decided to white knight the situation.

I was with you until your last sentence. Let's not act like most black men who end up in jail are innocent. We can definitely talk about how black men end up in the world of crime far more often than other races, often from faults in the black community, but to rinse the situation off as if blacks are being falsely imprisoned is just being racist.

How do you feel about gender roles? I ask because it seems like the feminist movement is pressing women to deny they have a sex drive, deny that they could ever want to be stay-at-home mothers with a working father to provide for them, and there's a significant amount of political correctness in every nature dealing with the two genders. Similarly, how do you feel about women being subservient to men as a whole?

It's more important to find out her point of view. Listen: Here in MR, it's pretty damned skewed against marriage because we're assuming the batshit insane minority of women are the only ones you'll ever meet.

It is the IRS' problem. That's why they'll disconnect the call and if you attempt to use that material in any legal setting, it'll be, at best, thrown out, at worst used against you.

You can record phone calls, per se. Doing this with a private party such as a relative or friend or even some random stranger on the phone is possible. Doing it with a company who has a licensed training method will get you kicked off the line. Think of it closer to stealing a trade secret (as if it's much of a secret) and it makes a lot more sense.

This probably won't be taken well, but let's see how it goes. If the article is true, these women were completely fucked. Sure, the heckling can be brushed off as the guys being idiots, but it points out there clearly was nothing presented to the hearing and it was a one sided discussion.

The IRS doesn't run on circumstance to circumstance. They see that the mother has the legal tax break on the circumstance provided (based on whatever evidence, if any, is brought forth). She gets the break, the father does not because of how she's held onto the child much longer. The thing is that the judge has placed an order that doesn't go along with how the IRS does taxes. So really unless the judge is able to override and negotiate the IRS position (or more likely have the mother either rev…

I suppose a pretty solid argument against the whole patriarchy nonsense is that women are simply incapable of making decisions and that's why men have historically been the major players throughout history. And that is a slippery slope to talk about women not voting. Considering so many Americans at least don't vote, I think for most of that crowd it's just knowing the option is there.

...I think you missed the point where clearly men need to be labeled threatening because they're men. It's the same view of straights in LBGT groups.

I don't think you understand what it would be like to go up to someone and say "I have a sexual attraction to children" and honestly expect them to take it like you were telling them "I have a sexual attraction to [your gender here]".

This is the same logic applied to LBGT groups on campuses. At least at mine. Straight people are not allowed or must be self-brutalizing for how shamed they are at being straight.

To a certain extent, one can say that the school culture is geared towards girls. It is also true that those who represent the teaching profession, particularly in the lower grades, are women.

Fun fact: In many states, such as California, anyone having sex with anyone under 18 is committing statutory rape. This includes those that are also under 18. In other words, two consenting 16 year olds are committing statutory rape. It's much more common for the male to be have charges pressed. After all, girls are innocent creatures.

Take a second and ask yourself, what if your friend never experienced many problems (no suicidal thoughts, not problems in relationships, no PTSD), but getting him therapy and getting him to admit he was molested could cause such symptoms, which further therapy may not remove.

But we do have to acknowledge that we live in a culture that encourages violence toward women, and that it is nurture, not nature, that makes a rapist. I can't help thinking about this thing called BDSM and understand that there's a huge shortage of men in this group compared to the number of women that want more aggressive/(faked) violent attention. Perhaps we should take into consideration that some women not only want rougher attention, but they will purposely rile a man up to make it happen …

It would have been helpful to ask if this applied to both genders or if only women/girls were not able to take responsibility for themselves while intoxicated.

You have a very simple position here. You start walking up and loudly call for the woman to stop attacking the man. You then proceed to move to HIM, trying to assist him, not do anything to her. From there, the two worst things are that she continues to attack him or she starts attacking you. If she attacks him, try to put yourself between them, but keep your hands off of her, instead using your hands to pick him up, guide him, whatever. If she attacks you, things get far more muddy.

I particularly like the clear display that disabled people are incapable of finding someone willing to have sex with that. And that escorts should be trained to take care of these special clients.

If they were married, witholding sex would have been a perfectly legitimate reason for a divorce. If she was so concerned about their relationship falling apart, perhaps she should have just let it go. Why? Even if you're depressed, you still have a sex drive.

How is that removing control of someone's sexuality? say what you will, but at the end of the day, the penis loses no function without the foreskin. Sex is very much possible. Orgasm is very much possible. The foreskin, in no way, is needed.

To be fair, there's a growing number of young men who are growing up terribly creepy and awkward. Which is largely a byproduct of being brought up to treat women better than any human should be treated. That said, it doesn't excuse anything about it. There's a lot of creepy young women I've met who said some inappropriate things and sometimes I do hear them get called out for it. It's nice to see that on the rare occasion it does happen.

Add to it the fear factor of someone getting face to face enough to put a knife in you and you've got some serious scare. It's one thing to imagine being shot, where anyone can pull a trigger, but it takes a different type of person to be willing and able to stab you, especially multiple times.

I don't hold doors for anyone. That makes me sound like an ass, but a few things. First, if they're not right behind me, there's no reason to stand there and wait for them to come up. It wastes my time, makes them feel awkward, and forces them to have to do that mild semi-running thing if they feel obligated (many do). Second, there really is no reason to. You're not impressing anyone. Unless that door is 100 lbs or something, then go ahead. Third, there's far too deep of an idea about chivalry …

You're kidding, right? I need to post these studies from reliable medical sources that the article is already quoting?

As the article states. Lowered STD transmission, lowered urinary tract infection rates (they cite the first year only), and prevention of other complications such as the inability for the foreskin to retract from various reasons (including scarring that tightens the foreskin).

There are established medical benefits. That's not at all being questioned, albeit it's severely downplayed here in MR. The concern is just how valuable those benefits are. EDIT: Or we can all just outright deny it and make ourselves look asinine and backwards. That's a good idea too.

What you're referring is not in the article. However, you're obviously referring to removing the clitoris, which is a significant part of the female reproductive organ. If you want to make this apples to apples, you would compare cutting off the clitoris to cutting off the head of the penis. In this case, cutting off the foreskin is much closer to cutting off part of the labia majora. So let's not act like the two are even close.

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention summarizes several studies across several targeted aspects of STDs and circumcision.

From my experience, far too many women are extremely sour about men for no reason at all. They have to put on makeup, wear high heels, and make themselves look attractive. That's not a man's fault.

Without trying to start an argument, it's very much debatable on whether circumcision is "mutilation".

So a field that becomes predominantly female runs the risk of lower salaries across the board. Funny thing, assuming that were true, Psychology has always been a low paying field anyway. Add to many entering psychology because "I've been …

A wild observation on my part with nothing to back it up, but I have a feeling that women getting paid more than men with all other variables equal has to do with young women entering the workplace with the employer having views that they should be paid more (for whatever reason). So in the end, you have your CEOs and high end execs who have been in the business for decades, almost all men, making hundreds of thousands if not millions a year while women that have been in the business for only a …

Maybe I'm completely wrong, but some, maybe even just a few of those women out there actually enjoy wearing so little and running around however the game is run (never seen it, so I don't know how it works). It seems like it's more about telling women what they CAN'T do, especially when it comes to their sexuality and 'objectification', than what they can do. Why can't women who enjoy feeling sexy and fierce get to feel sexy AND fierce?

This. Honestly gay rights, in of itself, is not MR as a whole. It's a whole different issue altogether. It's not about being for or against. It's like asking if black's rights are an issue for MR. Not specifically, no. The NAACP has that covered. This is more for men in general, straight or not.

I think this article is more so stating "Don't have sex" instead of "Have sex, but don't expect more out of it". Instead of telling women they're entitled to more if a man can get sex from them, the statement needs to be that if they believe in their freedoms as a woman so much, have sex and quit getting caught up on the "perks" you're missing out on. Either that or announce you're a gold digger from the start so there's no confusion about whether it's prostitution or not.

The ironic part of this is that women are supposed to be more open and capable of sex at their leisure, yet many (particularly women) slut shame them. Like the article mentions, men are bombarded with sexual signals. I doubt many men would say that they're completely against this when it's directed at them. On the other hand, it's not hard to see another woman shaming this activity for several reasons (the first two being competition and for "outdoing" their own signals and ultimately 'cheapenin…

Got intoxicated at a party. Found a guy to fuck. Fucked. Woke up the next morning and realized what happened. Cry rape. Funny enough, this is technically rape, even if the man was drunk as well, simply because she is not legally capable of making decisions for herself (even though a man can, which is funny to think that a law exists stating women are clearly incompetent in the same situation). Simply being pissed over whatever issue. It's a great revenge. Actively seeking attention can lead to f…

As I've said in the past before: Acting like men and women are equal on any level is just outright denial. The obvious, indisputable is physical difference. Psychologically, there's proof of men being more capable than women as well, but it's not nice to admit that.

The base idea that everyone wants to claim is that men and women should be equal. I think everyone can agree to that. The way it's reached, the messages and "facts" spread, and the way to handle issues that can never be equal are all things that tear the two sides apart. For instance, sex. That alone causes a huge lack of equality. For nearly every sexual position, the man is on top. Why? Simply because that's just how our bodies are designed. Generally speaking, a woman is going to end up submi…

To be fair, males are generally better in all physical sports than females. I hope nobody feels they need to refute this, but if so, check out Olympic records between men and women for your source. That said, however, either you consider it a co-ed team (instead of just a girls team) or you make a boys team. Other than those two options, no one has any grounds to bitch about these boys on the team, much less winning. If you want to get nasty, remind them that equality is quite a bitch then.

It's things like this that actually make sexuality so terrible. Girls clearly are not supposed to WANT sex. Boys are clearly the only ones that want it and only use sex for their own pleasure. Boys also have the mentality that girls are total playthings and simply have no other interest than to fuck (might I add, in the most vile way, meaning to harm if possible) girls at any chance given. I suppose I've got my opinions wrong and my wife is a liar: Women really don't want sex at all.

Men take up the dangerous professions, that much is true, but it sure as hell isn't because most men want to live on the edge of danger.

That's true. The question is, how do you post something like this without the common Reddit mantra of beating down other men? White knighting is very common, especially on Reddit. Besides, men having less social services to protect them? That just means us men need to just man up and get over our own problems!

You also have to consider that the majority of CEOs have been at the company for DECADES. Looking back, say, 40 years ago (which I believe is a reasonable number to consider), women were scarcely entering many fields as more than part time workers, much less making a career out of their job where they could end up as CEO. A young man starting out at a company the same day as a young woman is long lost in his chances of out performing her in wage, promotion, and general recognition, no matter his…

Too angry about the idea to cite it, but there are groups that specifically cater to women looking to have daughters. These groups condone the hatred of having a son, along with cultivating the remorse of how horrible it is to not have a daughter. Some groups go so far as to condone abortions, solely because of learning that the child is a boy and/or giving it up to adoption. You also have the classic situation of, I believe she was called Beaver Biter, women like her that abuse/neglect their so…

You can't exactly tell a woman that she should have more of a sense of humor if she gets fingered at a party while wasted and several pictures are taken and passed around.

Honestly I'm too lazy to cite this, but I recall female drinkers have been on the rise in the last decade or so, dramatically increasing toward the rate of males.

Just my 2 cents about it. If the article is completely true, I'm sure females are catching up very quickly anyway.

Kicking your balls =/= pushing someone to the ground.

Attacking someone's reproductive organs is far more serious that a shot to the gut that will not the wind out of you. Either way, he never even hit the woman, according to the article. He chased her, then he either pushed her or ran into her and she fell.

The simple truth is that men are only "finished" if they let themselves be finished.

This is about the only thing I end up disagreeing with you about, rantgrrl. The clitoris is a much more sexually sensitive part of the body than the foreskin. Similarly, the loss of the clitoris makes it very difficult for reasonable pleasure in women, as opposed to (debatable) very little loss if any for men without a foreskin.

Generally, male circumcision refers to the slicing off of the tip of a newborn infant's foreskin. Not the tip. It's the majority of a "sheath" that ends up covering the tip. Very different.

To be fair, it's private business. They can restrict as they see fit. Similarly, should this really be an issue to the patrons (i.e. young women not happy about finding only older men in the club), they won't go.

My favorite part of the whole thing is "he must be gay". Because, you know, there's no reason any man should ever turn down sex. Ever. STDs, pregnancy, and infections don't matter. Neither does the person being unattractive to the guy. Or perhaps he simply doesn't want to have sex yet for a myriad of emotional/psychological considerations that, for a woman, is just innate in her nature.

Look for the Department of Justice rape statistics page. Off the top of my head 0.8 women out of every 1000 are raped, sexually assaulted, or sexually threatened each year (actual rape is something like 0.3 in 2009). This only accounts for reported cases (which would be more if all supposed rapes were reported, however less if false rape cases were not included). Can't exactly question that source since it's straight from the justice department.

Doing the numbers from 2009's report from the Department of Justice, roughly .08 out of ever 1,000 women are raped or sexual assaulted (so a lot more than just rapes included in this figure).

It's funny that there's more than one reason for this. The two most obvious are the most hush hush as well. First, men are so often viewed as pedophiles, it's hard for people to not at least have that cross their minds while seeing a man care for children. Second, if a man teaches young children, many will question his masculinity. There's a clear void between a first grade teacher and a construction worker.

Not quite true. Age of consent is 17. Statutory rape and sodomy involves minors under 14 years old. Statutory rape and sodomy of second degree for a minor under 17 and an adult older than 21. She doesn't meet either of these, but she does fall under the child molestation laws which is having sexual contact with any minor under 17. Not sure about Missouri for this, but child endangerment and providing alcohol to minors are also very clearly present.

While I disagree that a single parent should have to work full time, on the other hand I disagree that a separated parent should foot the bill. Keep in mind, the only reason I disagree with a single parent working full time is because the child is left neglected. Placed in day care and often not developing a proper social bond with the parent. And of course, on the other hand, one working parent and one to stay home is ideal for relieving this situation altogether (and many other problems). That…

Making a broad generalization, I find women who have college education or higher tend to have a nastier demeanor toward their future spouse/boyfriend. Similarly, I understand that women who are successful financially are much more expectant of their future husband/bf to outperform them, yet refuse to give up any part of their lifestyle to adjust for a relationship. At least that's been my experience, and those around me.

This also plays into the equality arguments you can hear from people. No one can reasonably state that women are physically as strong, fast, or agile as men (in general).

First off, quit calling it "mutilation" if we're going to have a discussion about it. Second, female circumcision is a removal of a significant part of a woman's sexual pleasure center. removal of the clit is a very dramatic change in sensation for a woman.

In California, the law is a very clear, uninterrupted line. Sex is illegal under 18. If one person is under 18, the person over 18 is molesting the younger person. If both parties are under 18, they're molesting one another. I think having a very clear, universal line like that is perfect.

Women who go after guys who seem like dicks because they're portrayed as confident. Women go after guys who say or do 'mean things' because it shows determination. Women go after men who do their own thing, which can be viewed in so many ways. In perspective, a nice guy has none of this. Being nice to a woman can make you look fee…

I have no scientific evidence to back this up. Wild speculation. I believe the answer to women not taking up mathematics fields is because they still don't like math. Being good at something does not mean you like it/want to pursue it. I know I'm great at math, but damned if I want to crunch numbers for a profession.

A different scenario: My wife (whom I love dearly) and I are waiting to have children in a few years. Come that time, we find out that one of us in infertile. It comes as a surprise and shock to us both. That's reasonable. If my wife were infertile and she knew this before we got married, but neglected to tell me, that would be deceptive on her part. Comes to the same end, but she had prior knowledge to a situation she should have let me know about.

I find the idea fascinating that they completely omit some facts about having a post-op trans for a wife. For instance, you're out having biological children with this other person. That would be incredibly devastating for me, not to mention the shock of having a post-op so intimately in my life. This reminds me of the discussion about if an HIV+ person should tell their romantic partners. Isn't it a little irresponsible when you don't tell someone after you're making an action that can't (easil…

While I like the nature of the article, it side steps two big points that need to be made VERY clear so this type of bullshit "Slutwalk" crap can end. First, rape occurs most often by someone known, very often inside the perpetrator's home or the victim's, and is far from just so stranger going at it in a dark alley. I don't know about any of you, but if I was crazy enough to do some raping, it's not going to be shoving the girl against a dumpster. Second, alcohol is involved in most cases. We h…

A woman goes out and gets drunk. A man says a few nice words to her. Long story short, she agrees to sex, while drunk, they go to his/her place, fuck. The next morning, she doesn't remember.

Now he has to make sure to do a sobriety test on every woman and get a written statement that she's sober and consents before any alcohol is involved just to save his ass.

Whether it's the same or not, I've got one observation to make. A circle jerk is going to have the most passionate, agreeable, "understanding" conversations you'll ever have. If no one disagrees with any of the issues stated, everyone gets to walk away with a smile, so of course the idea that having an all women group would be an "excellent experience" because they have no men to debate the issues with where a man and woman would normally find different views.

Beyond what many want to believe (and what drug companies will feed to you), depression is a choice.

While the name suggests it, not quite. Simply holding someone against their will, be it to another location or the same spot they are held, is abduction/kidnapping. And while I say that, I agree that Adbi committed no crime, hardly close to abduction for which he's charged.

Beyond the racial harassment (which is ultimately he said/she said, but still) and the clear gender bias, she definitely is in some serious shit for stating she was being locked in and he was arrested for that reason. A shame he didn't have a recording on phone or similar to show otherwise, but ultimately if he gets no witnesses to see that the door was open, it's his word against three others. That in mind, he definitely needs these people that passed in the hallway, saw the door was wide open,…

The thing that gets me about his example is the wide held idea that rape is done by strangers in a dark alley. The truth is that the majority of all rapes occur by someone known to the victim, male or female.

In most parts of USA, it's illegal to have sex with someone under 18. That includes other minors. Being 19 (an adult) having sex with a 16 year old (a minor) is statutory rape. I understand there's exceptions, including where the consent age is 16 or 17, and a few rare cases where it's legal within an age range. Either way, at least here in California, you having sex with that girlfriend of yours would land you with a stat rape case and sex offender status.

Wow, no "niiiice" comments here, huh? 12 years old is too young and she's not hot enough, but a 16 year old with a "hot" 27 year old is okay. At least the line can be drawn somewhere, which I suppose is more than I expected from some.

You know what, you should make that 14. No, how about 12? I've seen pretty mature 8 year olds, so they should be able to consent to sex if they want to. The age line is drawn where it's at. However you feel about independent cases and judgment carries no weight.

Think about your local high school. Imagine George Clooney walking in and fucking a 14 year old from said school. Many girls are going to think he's hot, but does that mean it's okay? What the hell is wrong with you? "Yeah, I got raped, but he was hot, so it's fine." I hope you find that statement to be idiotic, which is how I feel about your defense.

This is the type of shit that leads to men being ridiculed for being raped. This is also the reason why men get fucked over in the legal system when it comes to sex crimes. I would have thought better from a group that is dedicated to giving equal justice for sexual crimes and acts.

It's nice to see an article that points out how important a woman's pleasure is to a man. I have a feeling I'm not alone, but from my experience, much more than half of my pleasure comes from knowing I've pleasured my partner. I've also learned that if she's not enjoying it (or at least I think she's not), I can't continue.

Last I checked, penis size (other than girth) has very little to do with a woman's sexual pleasure. In fact, last I heard, too big causes severe problems. Penis size in an argument is never honestly about penis size.

It's true that it's best to have an ear for as many sides as you can on something like that. I used to have both /r/feminisms and /r/mensrights.

Wait, since when was MR an anti-feminist subreddit? I thought MR was about men standing their ground for their rights, not seeking to disavow and destroy feminists (no matter how wrong you and I may think they are). That really hurts to see such a comment come from a moderator as well. I always thought we were grown up here and could have some reasonable ideas put forth. It pains me to see that MR is starting to become exactly what /r/feminisms is, but for men.

I agree with the idea, but I also consider other situations of the law. For instance, manslaughter, kills someone. The person that committed it should not have to spend the rest of their lives in jail for it (assuming it wasn't gross negligence or similar). That said, about a quarter or so of the time that would have been served seems closer to reasonable, imho.

I have to agree. REAL rapes are severely damaging, especially since the majority are by someone that's known and reporting them is an emotional conflict of interests (you want them to pay for what they did to you, but at the same time you don't want them hurt). Although I also have to agree that even just being accused of rape, long before being in prison, is a life long sentence to at the very minimum questionable looks and comments.

First off, just like most of you are saying, physical attacks for a non-violent action is not justifiable. Second, and more importantly, her sexual harassment bullshit is WAY out of line. These are children under 5, probably under 3, who have no concept of sexuality other than recognizing that they have an appendage (in the boys case).

Wife works in a preschool. She told me one day that a pair of lesbians were bringing their daughter to the school as a new "student". The second day in, one of the mothers asks my wife "Does he work here?", pointing to a man that has worked there for years, the only male teacher, and his own child goes there as well. According to my wife, her tone was that she was ready to call the police immediately.

This is true. Her behavior represents more so that she never shares with other children and very likely gets what she wants at home. She is known to take toys from other children, simply because they have toys, not because the girl wants to play with any specific one. She also ups up saying "mine" to every toy she can. Children are often disruptive, perfectly reasonable, but her behavior demonstrates a lack of sharing. While some children take toys from others and the second kid moves on, she st…

The simple fact is that this is child abuse. Perhaps even borderline torture, which happens to have very serious consequences in legal terms. I'm terribly disgusted that she is not in jail for this, and for Dr. Phil to bargain with her is absurd. Threatening to call CPS if she doesn't straighten out is not fixing it. HAVING CPS come then and there, after having footage of this very clear child abuse, and having her cuffed and behind bars is the only reasonable action to take in this matter.

Do you think maybe some boys are sexually molested as a child and that's one of the many consequences of it (along with lack of treatment)? It's already bad enough that lots of women are sexually abused as child and end up looking for someone that's violent with them to bring the experience back …

Funny how the people that say "man up" are either women who don't know the first thing about being a man and the responsibility it brings or from pussy whipped guys who can't stand up for themselves against a woman's word and want to put you down for it.

I want to agree with you, but some girls would probably think "He totally deserves that!" If it weren't for that in my mind, I'd be completely behind this idea.

You can also look at it this way: Parents of young children are against (single) men. At least they learn far more toward supporting women. If you don't give your side of the story to others who are involved before taking drastic actions, you're going to get crowded out from anything you say. After all, why is a man taking pictures of little children? That's the big question on the minds of the child-molester-fearing parents and they'll be glad to throw that in your face if given the chance.

You're going to die from the food you eat and the lack of exercise that modern convenience gives long before breast cancer has a chance to even tap you on the tit. How about raising awareness about that?

As it stands right now (which may change after I post this) is that there's a single line suggesting that men and women are abused equally, then another few lines that refute this argument. You'd do well to cite a few different places, since there's so many posts about refuting the stats given.

If a woman has the audacity to hit me, I have the audacity to hit back. A philosophy I luckily haven't had to carry out, but I firmly believe in if we're to talk about equality.

You'll have to forgive my friend here. We all know of people who shit themselves. Both in the brain and in the pants.

Men do get in more car accidents. Pure and simple. The thing no one tells you is that men, on average, drive much much more than women, on average.

This could very well be in part due to the reason my wife and I aren't having children yet and a friend and his girlfriend won't be getting married anytime soon: We're all waiting for financial security and considering how wage discrepancy has been, it's a pretty long wait. On the side, I really hate people that tell me you're never ready to have kids. Especially when they're the exact type of parents that should have aborted.

Funny how there's no simple arrangement to protect men that want their girlfriend/wife/whatever to have an abortion and the wife/girlfriend/whatever doesn't. A little contract that says "I'm not paying shit because I didn't want the child born." Could really save a lot of men. Of course, then we'd all look really deadbeat, especially 15 year old fathers.

You have to do it before people talk about their children, not after.

It does make me wonder just how long she claimed she saw this "bear" coming toward her. And while bears are known to walk on their hind legs on occasion, then sure as hell don't do it over any considerable distance.

They did say a hunting rifle, but even still unless his body was completely mutilated from the shot, he'd have to bleed out. Even a severed head has about 10 seconds of oxygen rich blood in it to function.

I agree with you, but like you said, young(er) girls watch this show and while some will say "wow, that's fucked up", others will say "Oh, cool, she's not in trouble for threatening and hitting her baby's father". It'd be nice if they showed a punishment (like her in jail and custody fully pulled from her) and/or at least a disclaimer about how wrong domestic abuse is, no matter the gender. It's just another example of what I see as women wanting equal rights to men, but not equal responsibility…

As much as that's what he should do in another time and place, that'd only make sure he never sees those kids again (if that's going to be any different than now) and land him in jail (if that's going to be any different if he does end up seeing his kids). He's really fucked over in this and it's far from his fault. Amazing how men are dropped so fast.

I know I don't apologize for too many things. Frankly most shit is so petty that why should you bother doing so? I also figure when I do say sorry, it's for something that I really did mess up on, and I know it, and I regret it. Not a passing by "Oh, I'm sorry" and then hop, skip, and jump my way away with a smile.

Because she's a woman and she's sorry for it all. What other things do you need to excuse this?

True. But try telling that to all the "patriots" that fight all your rights away, but cry "First Amendment!" when you tell them to shut up.

Honestly, I personally hate many women. Nutty women drivers, the women who walk around on their cell phone when their attention is needed elsewhere (or not, but have that stuck up nature about them and/or yell into their phone like it's a can on a line), and women who are so vehemently against the traditional gender roles ("I hate pink!" for one). To be fair, though, I hate douchebag men that are too good to drive in one lane, men who have to yell into their phones like it's a can on a line, and…

It seems that as a father, if you're not married to the mother and on VERY good terms with her and the children, then you're a dead beat dad. Nevermind that so many mothers will walk around with the single digit aged children all following along 5 to 10 feet behind them and never look back to make sure they're there. Or take them to a store and yell at the child to sit down and shut up because the child is "annoying me!" Or the mother that forces her children to do all the housework while watchi…

Funny how viciously they'll seek out child support payments that are already ruining a man's life, but they don't seem to have such bravado about drug dealers, murders, and corporate heads who are evading taxes and/or using tax loopholes.
