Why the hell do we care? Even if she slept with the freaking president to get her game a good review, this isn't a Men's Rights issue. The Men's Rights subreddit is a place for those who wish to discuss men's rights and the ways said rights are infringed upon. Now, if she got pregnant and the father didn't get equal custody of the child, fine, at least it would be somewhat applicable to Men's rights. Remember when some crazy guy shot a bunch of people, and the Men's Rights Movement got confused …

You can do a birth certificate search, but I don't know how long until the birth certificate is entered into the system. Edit: It looks like submitting to the county will get you the results sooner (the state doesn't have them until 3 months). If you have it narrowed down to a small number of counties, this should be doable. Just remember, you are most likely not named as the father, so you can only request informational birth certificates. Additional Edit: I don't know what it is like in Califo…

A lot of people have already responded to you, but I figured I should as well.

My post wasn't so much about maternity leave as it was a post to push for better paternity leave. My suggestion completely gets rid of this double edge sword you are talking about. You make parental leave generous, paid and lengthy, but you make it for both parents. Now men are also taking time off to be with their families, and employers stop being reluctant to hire women based on them taking time off. It opens up more options for men in more traditional care giver roles, and maybe helps remove…

Because women are more likely to take time off for children (and are basically required to take at least a week off to recover from birth), it hurts their careers. My proposal to solve it would be paid time off for both parents. Fathers can have more time with their children and mothers won't be penalized for taking time off.

$400/month is definitely not enough to raise a child on. We use one of the cheapest daycares in our area, and it is around $1150/month for one toddler. Assuming the custodial parent will still have to eat/feed themselves, they'll have to work, so they'll still need daycare. But I agree with the premise of limiting child support payments to what is actually needed to support the child.

It is also disgusting that a 16 year would face a 41 year to life sentence. He was a minor! I hate this crap.

Really well thought out and articulated response. I just wanted to add that with the liability for caring for a child, both parents should have the right/privilege of raising the child. I guess we can call raising the child a right if it can only be taken away by due process of law, and a privilege if it can just be taken away willy-nilly. MRAs are fighting to have raising of your own child treated as a right. Currently, it is treated more like a privilege.

There are ways to get a ride safely, especially for the new generation. You can ask to take the driver's picture and post it on e-mail/message it to a friend. You can also check state issued ID and include the driver's name in the message.

I think the OP is trying to say if you live with a girlfriend in one of these states, you might accidentally become married. Although, as AnnArchist points out above, all of the states require that you consent to be married and present yourself as married to the community. I can see how you could get into a problem if one side claims marriage and the other does not.

As InfinitelyThirsting mentioned, for the purpose of my calculation, I'm treating that age group as a window into the "danger years" of being raped. So, I assume that if a woman is going to be raped, it will be between when she's 16 and 64. I also assume that rapes are evenly distributed across that population, and that the size of the population is static (so, every 64 year old that turns 65 and leaves the group is replaced with a new 15 year old turning 16).

The FBI numbers you linked to were just forcible rape, and the statistics are listed per 100,000 total population, not per 100,000 women.

So, the more relevant column is total forcible rapes, which in 2009 (the lowest year, yay! less rapes) was 88,097. According to wikipedia, there are 103,129,321 women between the ages of 16 and 64.

I think you must be doing something wrong if you are constantly being perceived as a pervert.

Yes, if placed in a situation where the only way to get an abortion is by claiming rape, and where that abortion is necessary, I believe a moral woman would and should lie about rape.

Normally, I feel like the jail time sentenced to/served by false accusers is appropriate. I'm usually just happy they get thrown in jail. But fuck, this guy spent almost 4 years in jail and she gets a max of 3 years?!? I guess the big difference is that in the 'normal' false accuser story, everything unravels before the man is convicted. Here she let him be convicted and serve over 3 years, all to avoid her friends being mad at her for ditching them to have sex with him. That woman disgusts me t…

From the wikipedia article Hetherington served over 24 years in custody, which he claims is due partly to exceptional hindrances in appealing the claimed injustices in the sentence. On October 27, 2009, Hetherington was finally granted a parole. Good news is that he's finally out of jail, I hope he finds some lawyers and gets his name cleared/restitution for false imprisonment.

Hi Pierce, I feel like I should apologize/explain myself a little here, because I do think I have been a little too hard on you re: the headline.

The point isn't the 6 months vs 1 year of sentencing.

So if they have DNA evidence, I'm pretty sure they can check it for a Y chromosome. The fact that they aren't asking to test women is really understandable, since they tend to be XX and not XY. Asking to DNA test an entire population is horribly intrusive and just asking for a false positive, but there is nothing sinister about it being limited to men (unless you are trying to say you want boys tested too).

The argument he makes is flawed, as he argues it is just as dangerous for the man as the woman, it isn't. Women are 40 times more likely to die getting a Tubal Ligation than men are getting a vasectomy.

It's no more risky for a woman to have a tubal ligation than it is for a man to have a vasectomy. They're both generally very quick and easy procedures. It is a lot more risky to get a Tubal Ligation. Wikipedia: For example in industrialized nations, mortality is 4 per 100,000 tubal ligations, versus 0.1 per 100,000 vasectomies. That's 40 times the risk!

Great summary in the article: Instead of feeding young women misinformation that encourages them to invent rape claims, feminists should teach young women what consent means, and that after-the-fact regret about one-night stands -- although a common, indeed natural, feeling for women -- does not negate consent. This would encourage young women to be cautious before engaging in impulsive sexual flings, and to be judicious about crying rape after the fact.

One of my favorite charities is linked to: The Innocence Project. They are dedicated to freeing wrongfully convicted people through the use of DNA testing. Donate now, and you can still claim a deduction on your 2008 taxes.

That's what it is supposed to be about, but you get too many stories that are along the lines of Look, a women did something horrible/violent

I came here to post almost the exact same thing. I don't know if my wife has ever been to a salon. I cut her hair, so I think I'm safe.

She admitted it on the same day. At 13 years of age, I think it's okay to leave the punishment to her parents, especially given how quickly she admitted the fabrication.

She is 13. It is understandable not to charge a 13 year old with a crime like you would (hopefully) an adult.

A man might get a max of 14 years for the same crime: http://www.nj.com/reporter/index.ssf/2008/08/lee_pleads_guilty_to_aggravate.html

I would probably define it as dealing with issues of inequality between how men and women are treated. Unless you are implying that the man drowned because rescuers said "Screw it! We're only going to save the woman and girl", I don't think it belongs here. edit: softened my tone

Now, if you ask if I think we are currently using the "beyond a reasonable doubt" criterion I espouse, the answer is no, we are not. Certain crimes have a "guilty until proven innocent" element which results in a higher likelihood of a wrongful conviction, because everyone wants to believe (1) a crime took place and (2) we have the guilty party. Personally I would like to: (a) restore stringent conviction requirements for ALL crimes, not have some crimes result in a predisposition to convict bas…

I feel like this is a caricature of men's rights. Sure, there are some men's rights activists who have crossed over the line into crazy, just as there are some feminists who have crossed that same line, it does nobody any good to argue against those extremes. I'm pro feminism and pro men's rights, because I believe in the goal of having people treated equally regardless of sex (and in fact, also regardless of gender or sexual orientation, I'm also pro gay and transgendered rights). There are law…

I'm completely with your dryice. 2 caregivers also helps to prevent bad ideas, since if one caregiver thinks of a bad idea, a second can say "that's a bad idea". The child saying it, most likely wouldn't be listened to. I'm a big fan of Men's Rights, but this article was just bullshit, with absolutely nothing substantial backing it up.

A quote from the article: Roberts said that in recent years, she has helped draft model laws, adopted in several states, that allow men and women to get genetic testing within the first two years of a child's life. If the test shows the father is not the biological parent, then he has the right to disestablish paternity. Such laws have been adopted in Delaware, North Dakota, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wyoming, and Roberts believes that the two-year age limit is better than the "anyone can sue a…

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
