0	Saw this in a jewelry store window today. Is the purpose of men's rights that every single slightly-male biased thing isn't an affront to womanhood like extreme feminists try to make it? Shouldn't it therefore try not to take every single slightly-female biased thing quite so seriously as an affront to manhood. Like this. Is that the point the OP was making? let's not go over board - it's just a joke.	/r/MensRights	11/02/12 07:36 PM

1	I Have Female Privilege. if it can be applied both ways, what makes it dodgy? Isn't it the application of the concept which is dodgy; the concept is empowering for men and women alike.	/r/MensRights	21/01/12 07:35 PM
6	I Have Female Privilege. Feminisim and MRA argue different points from the same theoretical grounding. it's like christian and muslim fundamentalists. Same ideological founding, but blinded by circumstantial practices. The very very good point made above is that Men's Rights and feminist movements are at heart arguing for the same thing within the same theoretical frameowork: sexual equlaity base on gender theory. If they could see an accept that then the other differences would dissolve away.	/r/MensRights	21/01/12 07:34 PM
0	Professor said this today - thought /mensrights might like it more primitive, technologically less advantaged societies were structured this way for survival purposes, rather than some shifty-eyed conspiracy theory I agree: gender roles were based on survival and evolved naturally. There wasn't a secretive board of men plotting the oppression of women. How do you know that women were stripped of freedom, independence and humanity rather than simply playing their part in a system I agree: patriachy was a system upheld by everyone that affected everyone.

0	Professor said this today - thought /mensrights might like it It would of course be false to claim that life for women in 'old society' was all about getting raped, beaten and subjugated. I am sure many (most?) men back in the day were respectful and considerate. You got the metaphor wrong with slave owner/slave, but very right with property owner/propety. How many people now and before valued their land or house to the point of being willing to die for it? How many people give the utmost respect and care to their car for instance, yet the car is still who…	/r/MensRights	19/01/12 05:21 PM
-18	Professor said this today - thought /mensrights might like it Hear hear. Feminism was extremely important (and succesful) in uniting the 50% of the population oppressed by a male-dominated society. That will take you as far as the glass ceiling, but you need the other 50% to break through.	/r/MensRights	19/01/12 01:31 PM
10	Feds Order Insurers To Cover Birth Control Free Of Charge To Women For single men and single women you are right. It solely helps women. But men in a relationship benefit from the pill as much as a woman, and do (should) shoulder the cost equally. Certainly that is a case if they live together, have shared bank accounts and so on. If the man wants a child and a woman doesn't, then there is an issue, but its a bit bigger than the economic impact of the pill. It these cases both men and women control their lives, and benefit from free contraeption. Flipping it ov…	/r/MensRights	02/08/11 11:04 PM
12	Feds Order Insurers To Cover Birth Control Free Of Charge To Women i think that was what i was trying to say... this isn't a womans issue. It's a baby issue, and when i do want a baby i'm sure as hell am not willing to have it classified as a womans issue.	/r/MensRights	02/08/11 10:37 PM
19	Feds Order Insurers To Cover Birth Control Free Of Charge To Women This is a good thing, right? Birth control is free here in the UK. I don't know if there is anything else that improves my freedom as a man than knowing I won't get my girlfriend pregnant by accident. Maybe I just haven't understood the point of this reddit yet...	/r/MensRights	02/08/11 10:18 PM
