| 3 | My friend's uncle has been charged with domestic violence for defending himself from his wife. Because he was held without bail, he was forced to accept a plea deal. Please help clear his name so thatThis. Came in expecting the usual circle jerk, instead was pleasantly surprised to see a rational, reasonable comment at the top. | /r/MensRights | 15/01/14 07:19 PM |
| 1 | I've been waiting two and a half years to see my son. And this morning I got this text.Wonderful ad hominem there. Makes it seem like your point is very valid when you resort to that. What of the damage he's already done to his child? Forgiveness is all fine and good, but does that undo the fact that he abandoned his wife and child? He had responsibilities and he ran away from them. You guys go on all the time about how great fathers are and how important they are to a child's development, but then praise this guy for abandoning his? You can circle jerk all you please, as evidence… | /r/MensRights | 11/01/14 05:38 AM |
| -5 | I've been waiting two and a half years to see my son. And this morning I got this text.At least you can own up to your mistakes, I can respect that. You have to understand (as it seems you do) you likely destroyed your opportunity to be a father. It seems you feel shitty about it, but I can't side with you on sympathy alone. I cannot fault a person for keeping a parent away who willfully walked out, choosing drugs over their child. I don't think you're a bad person, not anymore. I think you were when you walked out, and I think you do too. It seems you've seen the gravity of your … | /r/MensRights | 10/01/14 08:15 PM |
| -8 | I've been waiting two and a half years to see my son. And this morning I got this text.Can't feel sympathy for you here. You made a bunch of really shitty choices and decided to leave your family. You're probably going to fall back in with the same shitty choices when things get tough again. Let's get this straight: you gave up your chance to be a father. You walked out on your son. If my wife did that I'd never let her near my children again. | /r/MensRights | 10/01/14 07:46 PM |

False. http://www.iovs.org/content/41/8/2138.full Although OC causes immediate changes in mechanical and chemical sensitivity that may persist for a week, a single exposure to OC appears harmless to corneal tissues. The changes are possibly associated with damage of corneal nerve terminals of mainly unmyelinated polymodal nociceptor fibers. I've also been called… | /r/MensRights | 24/12/13 06:18 PM |

| 3 | If a woman can use a taser against a guy for self-defense reasons, why cant we use the same against them for the same reasons?I do annually, as required by my police service's policies. Please provide me a study stating OC causes long term damage. Use of force instruction is still one of my duties, and if what you're saying is true then I'd like to give correct information to my students. I await your response with bated breath. | /r/MensRights | 23/12/13 08:49 PM |

| 7 | If a woman can use a taser against a guy for self-defense reasons, why cant we use the same against them for the same reasons?Haha nope. Been sprayed with OC many, many times as a use-of-force instructor. No permanent damage. Also been CS gassed more times than I can count. And hit with an ECW. OC hurts to be certain, but unless you get a hypodermic needle effect from it there isn't any permanent damage done. | /r/MensRights | 23/12/13 07:40 PM |
| 19 | MRAs want to take rights away from women!men have no rights of their own. Untrue and unhelpful. While there may be in equality in areas men are very far from having "no rights." Speech like that does nothing but make you look like the equivalent of a Radfem. | /r/MensRights | 21/12/13 03:34 PM |
| 1 | Ana from TYT tries to prove a woman can be a soldier, by struggling to carry a 140-160lb manFormer soldier with multiple tours here. I worked with women who were every bit as competent as their male counterparts on every deployment I went on, and it was actually a female medic that dragged me to safety and ultimately saved my life after being hit by an IED. It's about the individual and their capabilities, not the gender. | /r/MensRights | 09/11/13 12:29 PM |
| 7 | r/funny: "Teach your daughter to shoot, because taking the law into our own hands always works out."Actually its saying to learn how to defend yourself because some people don't care about court orders. It's what I'm doing with my children and is, frankly, prudent. | /r/MensRights | 26/10/13 04:50 PM |
| 2 | [Serious] Help me see Men's Rights not as middle/upper class people complaining about first world problemsThis is an extremely well-put comment. I honestly cannot find a single thing to disagree with. Thank you for giving your opinion. | /r/MensRights | 05/10/13 05:09 PM |
| 1 | [Serious] Help me see Men's Rights not as middle/upper class people complaining about first world problemsI have to say, after reading through your post in /r/feminism, it was a pleasure to read so many of the typical feminist arguements get shut down so effeciently. I'm surprised that you took the time to read it. There were lots of walls o' text in that thread. I'm surprised at how many of my arguments I find repeated across MRM sites the more I research. There seems to be a constant attempt at victimhood in the feminist camp with little to no actual, concrete issues that can be solved. I cannot s… | /r/MensRights | 05/10/13 05:03 PM |
| 1 | [Serious] Help me see Men's Rights not as middle/upper class people complaining about first world problemsWe need to replace the sexist feminist laws such as VAWA and primary aggressor arrest and replace them with gender neutral laws. I have to say the sexual assault/rape laws in a lot of countries seem to be very backwards. | /r/MensRights | 05/10/13 04:48 PM |

If someone were unhappy about it, would you know? Fair enough. Oh, so you personally keep track of that as well, do you. Actually, it's kind of my job. I'm a cop on a sexual assault unit and I specialize in crimes against children. I understand the general sarcasm, but yeah, I deal with sexual assaults on a daily basis.

I could be wrong, but I seem to recall something like that. | /r/MensRights | 02/10/13 12:55 PM |

And the men's rights stuff in Edmonton is actually what made me start researching this topic more deeply. And good lord, do I know that Canada's got it's share of issues. There are lots of different voices in the MRM, they won't all be as grumpy as me. Thanks for your input. Frankly, I expected a lot of people to be completely dismissive (there are a few examples of this) but for the most part I'm impressed that so many people have taken the time to write replies.

| 1 | [Serious] Help me see Men's Rights not as middle/upper class people complaining about first world problemsWhat articles have you read, what sites have they been on, and what issues have they been discussing? I've taken the questions from usual themes I've found popping up on the feminist subreddits, as I took the questions I posed /r/AskFeminists from common themes I saw popping up on the men's rights-type subreddits. I agree it's not the best best system, but I wanted to see each side's responses and general reactions to common criticisms, founded or not. Circumcision I'm personally against circumc… | /r/MensRights | 02/10/13 12:47 PM |
| 1 | [Serious] Help me see Men's Rights not as middle/upper class people complaining about first world problemsfeminism blames men for everything bad that happens in the world and portray them as oppressors, the MRM wants to address the problems men have and believe feminism is one of those problems. A very well put statement. This is the general image that I'm getting the more I look into this subject. feminism was born out of hatred Can you clarify what you mean here? I don't believe feminism started out as that. After all, women having the right to vote and be treated as equals was something that they… | /r/MensRights | 02/10/13 12:37 PM |
| 2 | [Serious] Help me see Men's Rights not as middle/upper class people complaining about first world problemsIf they are articles written in the mainstream media then I agree, the majority of those articles do ridicule the MRM. By why do you think mainstream media portrays the MRM in this fashion? So either it is okay to cut infant's genitals or it isn't. Which do you think it is? I think it should be left alone unless medically necessary. As I said in the description, there are a couple topics that I am simply playing devil's advocate to hear an MRA's reasons for opposing or supporting an issue.

What is being done by the MRM, and not just /r/MensRights to help people? Can you provide links to official projects, websites, etc? I understand and appreciate that this subreddit can help out its members, but what of the MRM as a greater movement? Your support is welcome, but your approval is not required.

| 1 | [Serious] Help me see Men's Rights not as middle/upper class people complaining about first world problemsFair enough. I wasn't aware of that. | /r/MensRights | 02/10/13 12:12 PM |
| 1 | [Serious] Help me see Men's Rights not as middle/upper class people complaining about first world problems"MRAs hate their loss of privilege." This is a sentiment that I've seen repeated by people in the feminist camp. I personally believe it's a load, but why do you think that this attitude has persisted? I generally see this kind of attitude whenever the topic of men's rights has come up with the average, disinterested person as well. I personally think that both partners working is the best solution because then they will stay financially independent and in case of a divorce/separation neither pa… | /r/MensRights | 02/10/13 12:12 PM |
| 1 | [Serious] Help me see Men's Rights not as middle/upper class people complaining about first world problemsAh, there's the wonderful attitude I was hoping to see. For a member of a group that claims theirs is the right path you sure seem quick to turn away someone seeking knowledge. Your dismissive attitude, honestly, reeks a lot like what I got over /r/AskFeminists. Thankfully other members of your community don't share your cynicism. | /r/MensRights | 02/10/13 11:47 AM |
| 1 | [Serious] Help me see Men's Rights not as middle/upper class people complaining about first world problemsLet's see. Yes. Yes. Yes. However, does this mean the solution is for women not to work? Economics is a complicated business and, frankly, well beyond what I would say I could give an informed opinion on. Yes, and no. I'm actually a cop myself, and have a bit more faith in my coworkers and the judicial system than to say that I'd be left homeless based solely on an unfounded accusation. Of course there a problem with rape in prison. It's where the term "rape culture" originated. Not true at all,… | /r/MensRights | 02/10/13 11:46 AM |
| -1 | [Serious] Help me see Men's Rights not as middle/upper class people complaining about first world problemsImho it's much more common for MRAs to emphasise that the home can be a man's place too (eg Warren Farrell). Fair enough. I hadn't thought of it that way. In terms of respecting women, some of the most prominent MRAs are women That's not really an argument, though. There are many prominent feminists that are male, but I don't believe feminists or feminism in general respects them. I think to them they're allies of convenience that will be discarded as soon as their usefulness runs out. The point… | /r/MensRights | 02/10/13 11:29 AM |
| 3 | Stop asking for permission and instead be the man you want to be...she just felt like my video gaming was a way to shut her out of my life and that I placed gaming before her. For me, gaming was just a way to focus on something that wasn't work and all the crappy stuff going on there. We talked it out. Now I make sure I make a place for her and show my love to her, and she understands and even supports my hobby because she sees the value in it now. Holy shit. An actual reasonable, adult response instead of needless circle-jerking. I can hardly believe it. | /r/MensRights | 24/09/13 09:27 AM |

| 1 | Nascar driver Max Papis collides with another driver, wife of the driver confronts Max following the race with a full-forced smack, dislocating his jaw. Any guesses as to how news anchors reacted?No problem. Lots of people (Canadians included) are confused as to how the law works in Canada. Its very close to British or other Commonwealth countries' laws. | /r/MensRights | 03/09/13 11:56 PM |
| 2 | Nascar driver Max Papis collides with another driver, wife of the driver confronts Max following the race with a full-forced smack, dislocating his jaw. Any guesses as to how news anchors reacted?No. In Canadian law it is the Crown that charges people. The crime in criminal court is said to be against the state, as it is worded as R. Vs whoever. Crimes can be prosecuted even if the actual victim doesn't want it. | /r/MensRights | 03/09/13 11:40 PM |
| 7 | If your girlfriend or any woman pulled a knife on you, how would you deal with the situation?.I've been in this situation several times, overseas and domestically. My response is automatic - see threat, neutralize threat. Overseas the response was lethal force, domestically I've had less-lethal tools and a team at my disposal. Women with weapons, especially firearms or edged weapons, are no less of a threat than a man. I acted to save the lives of me and my troops and I'd do the same again in a heartbeat. | /r/MensRights | 03/09/13 11:10 PM |
| 6 | Nascar driver Max Papis collides with another driver, wife of the driver confronts Max following the race with a full-forced smack, dislocating his jaw. Any guesses as to how news anchors reacted?Canadian cop here. It's still assault causing bodily harm. She caused, directly or indirectly, force to be applied to a person, against their will, causing injury that was more than transient or trifling in nature.

| 2 | Why do women hate male only spaces?I hav to say, if you are not a woman, you cannot imagine how intimidating it feels to go into, for example, a rowdy bar. You have to take my word for this! And women started to create women only spaces so that women who felt intimidated by men in large numbers would have somewhere to go. So this is all because women are weak and easily intimidated, exactly the opposite of what feminism says? Grow a fucking spine. Your lack of backbone does not justify erosion of my freedom of association. | /r/MensRights | 27/08/13 06:17 AM |
