| -16 | Researchers find reverse sexual double standard in sextech use.Yea maybe but I know plenty of the women in my life have certainly felt negative pressure around their sexuality that made them internalise repression within the bedroom that I had to spend a lot of time working with them on to enjoy their sexuality. I think men experience this less often although I did once have a fairly religious friend who suffered from guilt issues. But socially you are right men’s sexuality is not acceptable to celebrated | /r/MensRights | 21/12/25 11:39 AM |

Female sexuality is celebrates among progressive circles but there are still loads of people who slut shame. But also true that most women actively hate men getting sexual pleasure online or with robots. I think one reason is it devalues their sexual currency which is a primary tool by which some women obtain status within society | /r/MensRights | 21/12/25 11:29 AM |

| 1 | You've heard of the "pink tax". I now present to you the "blue hole" - where certain product categories for men have fewer options, less features and are generally neglectedThese are all valid points. Maybe one way of phrasing this is as consumers we should be demanding of retailers for more choice and options and pointing out where it seems are gender has less choice. We should also vote with our feet as consumers and also create and develop the companies and services we want to see. Nothing is stopping any of us creating a male sex toy company | /r/MensRights | 16/12/25 01:06 PM |

She immediately turned around and shouted at them at which point they all went for me. I knew they were coked up and looking for a fight and also knew we were outnumbered. In that situation the best thing to do is literally take the loss and ignore the aggressive behaviour.

| 9 | You've heard of the "pink tax". I now present to you the "blue hole" - where certain product categories for men have fewer options, less features and are generally neglectedThis is why there is a “pink tax” too as women are willing to pay more and there is a market for it. It doesn’t stop it feeling unfair to women, just as it feels unfair to not be able to buy clothes for your gender when you want to. | /r/MensRights | 14/12/25 08:05 AM |

She buys me Clothes, remembers birthdays, organises our social life and does a load of great cooking. I also enjoy cooking do the laundry and do all the home maintenance. My point is the mental load of home maintenance is high as it’s complicated. You need to spend time researching how to do projects. Like our bath got a leak and it was two trips to hardware shop.

You have to research what tools you needs, develop skill to use them and what materials or you have to juggle and manage tradespeople. Yes it’s a bit less frequent but in my head is an entire maintenance schedule for our old house. My wife who is lovely just has to say “oh so and so is broken” and it’s my mental load.

It’s a personal choice if you want to be in a closed relation or open one and men have the right to choose individually the type of relationship that works for them. Different men will be different and take different views but it’s all of our rights as a man to be able to live in the type of relationship we choose. Whether that’s heterosexual marriage. A gay relationship or a poly or swinging relationship. | /r/MensRights | 09/12/25 07:07 AM |

| 9 | Didn’t know Switzerland was a misandrist countryI love women and I’m happily married. But yes like you I just believe in equality in the law. I do also think biologically women are more risk adverse and place less of a value on freedom.

| 10 | Italy recognizes femicide, killing women is worse than killing men now.I struggle with it too. I guess a lack of critical thinking and philosophical education. That coupled with the rise of identity politics thinking that judges people not on universal values but rather their power status (ironically) as determined by those in culturally powerful positions with clout. | /r/MensRights | 29/11/25 12:15 PM |
| 56 | Italy recognizes femicide, killing women is worse than killing men now.The best argument is the maxim that laws should be based on the category of characteristic and the class of harm. For example murder is the class of harm and gender is the characteristic. Laws should not be based around particular attributes and classes because once you accept that premise it can be used to create discriminatory laws. Remove the argument from this particular law around women make the point once the legal system accepts the premise it can be used more widely for discrimination. | /r/MensRights | 29/11/25 08:40 AM |

| 6 | Male students show more tolerance for political enemies than females show for their own alliesThis is because women are just more expert then men at controlling social narratives and speech and using it for their own ends. On average their brains are bigger when it comes to language and social interaction. A woman would destroy your reputation and ostracise you. Using gossip, slander and manipulation. So excluding people they don’t want to speak using justifications or ideologies that give them that power is just hugely attractive. . | /r/MensRights | 12/11/25 09:00 AM |
| 10 | Male students show more tolerance for political enemies than females show for their own alliesI suspect what it is that women have more of their brains dedicated to language. Women fight with manipulation and speech. So when it comes to social competition tactics such as ostracism are core dark female traits. Men therefore probably have less of a flight or fight response to words and language. To put it bluntly we are used to being talked poorly off and we don’t care as we have the physical strength and ability to tolerate it. | /r/MensRights | 12/11/25 08:55 AM |

In the U.K. universal male suffrage was in 1918 and women was in 1928 just 10 years later. What I’ve come to understand more about the apex fallacy is how little women see low status men. They literally ghost them as if they don’t exist. From a men’s rights perspective though I think the men at the top of the apex are just as guilty as feminism for holding back rights.

I’d be happy if there was an equalities minister that focused on both genders but seeing as women have a minister men need one too. It makes a tangible difference in the UK for example we have a women’s health strategy but no men’s health strategy and because most healthcare is via the NHS men suffer as a result. | /r/MensRights | 04/11/23 08:55 PM |

When to try to warn them hey call you misogynistic.I think this about the Russel Brand case.

As women put other women first with ‘sisterhood’ and support for each other they assume men are acting in a patriarchal manner to give each other benefits.

Personally I’ve done TV and Radio interviews on political issues and you don’t normally get offered a fee. Apparently they will sometimes if you ask for one.

That's All.It’s true that some men do stare and make women feel uncomfortable. It’s also true that some women film themselves in the gym to encourage male gaze on the social media / OnlyFans. Also true that some women hit on men in gyms. I think what a lot of men find upsetting is that historically we were told we were not allowed single sex spaces and they were sexist. Now women want them. So it’s that double standard that many find hard to swallow. | /r/MensRights | 24/05/23 07:48 AM |

Feminism is trying to normalize BDSM fetishes, feminization of men and "no looking!" of doms.I feel like part of men’s rights is supporting all different male forms of sexuality.

| 6 | I'm sick of women complaining about "mental load"Yes this would be of great benefit to men and women. Improving father’s rights sets the expectation of shared parental responsibility. Also it addresses the so called pay gap that arises from men’s lack of paternity leave (as women fall behind in work more as they have more time off). Volvo as a company is very good on this. Sad thing is ‘some’ feminists never realise that improving men’s rights are key to solving some of the issues they complain about. | /r/MensRights | 31/03/23 02:31 PM |

| 6 | Opinions on feminist MRA’s?Men and women face different forms of inequality. Also men and women can both be in situations where they face misandry or misogyny. As someone who cares about inequality then I care just as much about situations where women are disadvantaged - so in that sense I’d say I was also a feminist as well as a men’s rights activist | /r/MensRights | 05/09/22 11:01 PM |
| 2 | ‘Pink education’: Hungary officials worry school system is ‘too feminine’Yes there should be campaigns to address the gender imbalance of professions like teaching and nursing just as there are for women with STEM subjects. The lack of men in ‘caring’ professions is bad for masculinity IMHO. | /r/MensRights | 28/08/22 07:13 PM |

| 2 | Trans inclusivity of men’s rights vs Trans exclusion from woman’s rightsThanks for the thoughtful comments - lots to ponder | /r/MensRights | 06/08/22 10:51 PM |
| 12 | Trans inclusivity of men’s rights vs Trans exclusion from woman’s rightsWell the question is also aimed at men - why don’t we have such an issue with trans men. I mean maybe some men do but there doesn’t appear to be like an anti-trans wing of the mens rights movement that is trying to deny trans men are men. | /r/MensRights | 06/08/22 01:31 PM |
| 8 | Trans inclusivity of men’s rights vs Trans exclusion from woman’s rightsPerhaps I haven’t explained myself clearly - the conversation I’m wanting to have is why it appears that the men’s rights movement appears more inclusive towards trans people whereas feminism seems split between those that seek to exclude trans people and those that support them. | /r/MensRights | 06/08/22 01:06 PM |
| 2 | I’ll make wolf-whistling and cat calling illegal and create a national domestic abuse register, says Liz TrussIt’s really cultural too. In some cultures eye contact and stares and smiles is more common. In others it’s very much frowned upon. A worry I have is by saying ‘staring is a criminal offence’ you start to trigger every women who gets gazed at a little too long to shout ‘sexual harassment’ and run to the police. When often it will be ‘guy with slightly awkward social skills’ whose trying to be friendly. | /r/MensRights | 06/08/22 12:35 PM |
| 2 | I’ll make wolf-whistling and cat calling illegal and create a national domestic abuse register, says Liz TrussI see what you are saying - both you and I would likely avoid a charge like that. We both probably have the emotional intelligence to be subtle enough and appropriate with eye contact and gaze when possibly understanding if a women is open to a conversation or sexual advance. The issue is how open something like non physical like eye contact is to interpretation. Someone with a low emotional intelligence or even a learning disability is going to be much more likely to be the victim of a false al… | /r/MensRights | 06/08/22 12:33 PM |
| 3 | I’ll make wolf-whistling and cat calling illegal and create a national domestic abuse register, says Liz TrussThe article is even worst - it says ‘leering’ and ‘persistent’ staring. At least a cat call isn’t open to miss interpretation so easily - like you can’t accidentally cat call someone and it’s pretty BM. Whereas persistent starring - does that mean trying to catch the eye of someone you fancy to start up a conversation? It’s so subjective. Once the idea that a man starring is sexual harassment then more women will interpret any male gaze as harassment. | /r/MensRights | 29/07/22 04:59 PM |
| 1 | I’ll make wolf-whistling and cat calling illegal and create a national domestic abuse register, says Liz TrussNot just cat calling the article says ‘persistent starring’ too :( | /r/MensRights | 29/07/22 04:55 PM |
| 1 | I’ll make wolf-whistling and cat calling illegal and create a national domestic abuse register, says Liz Truss“Over the last two years, our nation has been shocked by a number of high profile murders of women, many here in London,” Ms Truss said. Meanwhile more men have been murdered but if a man dies or gets murdered no one cares much | /r/MensRights | 29/07/22 04:53 PM |
| 1 | I’ll make wolf-whistling and cat calling illegal and create a national domestic abuse register, says Liz TrussNot just speech but ‘leering and intrusive staring’ so you won’t be able to look at someone. Of course whether it’s welcome flirtation or eye contact or ‘intrusive staring’ will be open to subjective interpretation and dependent on how good looking the man is. Good luck to any average man who tries to flirt or look at a women. | /r/MensRights | 29/07/22 04:21 PM |
| 8 | Supporting male victims of crimes considered violence against women and girlsYea I think my issue is with framing male victims as victims of crimes that affect women. Rather than being victims in their own right. It perpetrates an unhelpful gama bias that women are the victims and only in a minority of cases can men be. Parking that framing issue aside some of the content and recognising male victims is progress compared to previously just ignoring them | /r/MensRights | 01/04/22 08:51 AM |
| 33 | Supporting male victims of crimes considered violence against women and girlsOk so this is really weird. Rather than talk about men being victims of crimes. We now have ‘crimes considered violence against women and girls’. This is proper Orwellian double speak. Both the Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls “Strategy, and the Domestic Abuse Plan, set out our ambition to reduce the prevalence of all VAWG crimes, regardless of who they affect, and to support all victims/survivors, including men and boys” Homicide is perhaps the only crime the omit as a crime considered… | /r/MensRights | 31/03/22 08:42 PM |
| 7 | Female perspective: Jake Davison, incel culture & mental health accessMany of these incels kill men as well. Elliot Rodgers killed more men then women. They hate on “chads” just as much as they do women. Misogyny is a part of it, but also wider hate at society and sexually successful men. If you read the news you would struggle to realise they were killing men as well. It’s always presented as the women being killed plus “other adults” or it’s being presented purely as violence against women. Us men need to take responsibility for challenging incel culture as well… | /r/MensRights | 15/08/21 07:30 PM |
| 7 | “Women and children first”The situation for men and women is awful. I am a bit tired of seeing articles saying how it will be worst for women while men are literally being executed for opposing them. I feel like society doesn’t value the sacrifice so many men have made in that war either - it’s still presented as just something bad for women rather than bad for everyone https://twitter.com/jaglancy/status/1426878440838508547?s=21 | /r/MensRights | 15/08/21 07:24 PM |
| 4 | "We always speak of women's safety. Let's talk about male violence instead." Women victims, men bad, got it?We should talk about male violence but also we need to frame this that we are the biggest victims. Wake up fellow men we are the ones most likely to be attacked in the street or the victim of male violence. So I am 100% in favour of men taking ownership of male violence but not simply for the sake of women, for our own sake as well. | /r/MensRights | 20/03/21 10:07 PM |
| 7 | I hate how men are ignored during tragediesAbsolutely in the place I live there was a news story about five homeless men dying in the streets. The same day the local leaders said we need to do more to make women feel safe on the streets.... 4 out of the 5 men had their heads smashed in yet no one talks about men needing to be safe. | /r/MensRights | 18/03/21 09:19 PM |
| 3 | After recevent events and the reaction, do you feel more or less inclined in making women feel safe?Problem is if men are expected to do something to signal they are not a threat then women will become hyper-alert to look for that signal. It will lead to more fear not less. Anyone who was an abusive perpetrator could also trick their victim into letting their guard down eg pretending to be on their phone, or whatever. I was hospitalised when my ex-wife got me into a fight with a group of young aggressive men. For a long time I was fearful of walking out alone at night but I rationalised it was… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 16/03/21 11:11 PM |
| 1 | So men can’t be good leaders?Yea I called out someone sharing this pointing out it was all whites women and no black or Asian women. Also that it was sexist to imply a gender has a particular set of qualities that make it better. There are so many complexities to understanding this pandemic. It really does my head in when people just cherry pick stuff to push their own tribalistic agenda. Anyway it ended with me being accused of sexism because I’m attacking female leaders apparently for being critical.... | /r/MensRights | 11/04/20 10:34 PM |

| 1 | UK - Having the HPV vaccine they give to girls would have saved me from cancerIt’s not me who has the vaccine. However I live in the UK and I have a son and I want him to get this vaccine when he’s old enough. This is one problem with the NHS in the UK. A committee of public health officials make decisions about these things based on what they consider sensible spending of public health funds. Despite the risks to men they argue it’s not cost effective. I’m sure if this were the other way around everyone would cry unfair discrimination but there are hardly any campaigns o… | /r/MensRights | 04/01/18 09:44 AM |

| 10 | After browsing this subreddit for a while, I've decided on my stance on Men's Rights.I think the thing is to focus on the positives of equality and the issues affecting both men and women. Don’t see things as gender war or fall into the trap of hating the other gender. There are some very real issues affecting men such as prostrate cancer, high male suicide rates and mental health problems, lower life expectancy, fathers rights etc. There are also some very real issues affecting women such as sexism, harassment in the street etc. Someone who really cares about equality will reco… | /r/MensRights | 16/11/17 07:42 AM |
| 1 | Feminist offended that men are sharing their abuse experiences in #metooIt’s awful reading all the incidences of abuse aimed towards women. It reminds me of the time I was attacked in the street. It was unprovoked violence that ended up with me being hit by a glass bottle and going to hospital to have my face stitched up. That kind of physical assault is something men suffer more frequently than women. There is no campaign for men who suffer emotionally or physically from such assaults though. I don’t get to be part of a victimised Group or get support. I’m meant to… | /r/MensRights | 18/10/17 08:13 AM |
