There's a strong culture of grievance on this sub, and I agree it's not helpful at solving any actual issues.

I think women would argue that societal attitudes towards women in politics are more negative than for men, which a) discourages some from pursuing it, and b) makes it more difficult for those who do pursue it. A woman who presents as womanly: "she's too soft to be a leader." A woman who presents as tough and commanding: "she's too bitchy and unlikeable."

Men as a sex are objectively in charge. Men control all the levers of power in the US. You're trying to argue against facts.

There's never been a female president. The current House and Senate have a record high number of women: 29% and 25% respectively. 67% of federal judges are male. There's never been a time when men were not in charge of all branches of government. In business, women are CEOs of only 1 in 10 Fortune 500 companies.

In earlier times, fighting for women's rights was a close approximation of egalitarianism because women were second class in society. Expanding their rights, independence, etc. would bring them into greater parity. The problem today is that feminism is still based on the assumption that it's a man's world and thus "equality" only entails helping women. That's not true anymore. Men have issues. Men are falling behind on various metrics. Modern egalitarians have to consider issues affecting both s…

It's not really the same, because on average women are weaker and more vulnerable than men. If they've had that power dynamic used against them before by someone they thought they could trust, of course they're going to be more cautious in the future.

It's ironic but the comments you're getting here show the general ignorance people have towards the apartheid nature of Israel/Palestine.

Here's an explanation of why women would say this. Basically the potential threat from men is something they have real-world experience with, as opposed to the purely hypothetical bear.

Yeah that's definitely a concern. Without alimony, though, the woman would be taking all the risk. She could legitimately worry that, after years of not developing employable skills, her man could tire of her and leave her with nothing. Marrying a woman with a career is probably a good idea, avoiding the pitfalls of the trad lifestyle.
/r/MensRights18/03/24 07:37 PM

You've got to go into marriage knowing what you each expect from the arrangement. If the woman becomes a SAHM and doesn't have a career, she'd risk poverty in divorce if not for alimony. If you, the man, want to be the breadwinner and have a traditional housewife, it's only fair to her to ensure she's taken care of. But if that's no good for you, then marry a career-focused woman.

Exactly. One can object to misandry in society without wholesale rejecting liberalism and adopting conservativism. The world is full of complexity and nuance, yet everyone wants to put themselves in tidy little "isms".

Lol, nah. I complained when an employer wanted men to start wearing ties. I refused to do it, especially since the dress code for women was much less restrictive. And you know what? No hate on the women. Good for them. If the policy is unfair to men, the solution isn't to pull women down. It's to stick up for ourselves.

The trope of women as damsels in distress needing to be rescued by men aged poorly, and as mea culpa, Hollywood over-corrected in the other direction. Building some people up should absolutely not require tearing others down.

I don't think men are imagining the gendered erosion of the presumption of innocence in Title IX kangaroo courts, I don't know what you're referencing. the increasingly gynocentric provision of services to victims of DV or other violence, I wouldn't say increased, but rather it's always been that way, because society first recognized the threats that women faced. It is a more recent development that the threats men face are also being understood, and services have not meaningfully responded yet.…

There is no "his property" in a marriage, though. Whatever is attained by either spouse is shared equally. Unless she signed a pre-nup stating otherwise. A married couple is considered a unitary legal entity; you cannot be compelled to testify against your spouse in court, for example. So while you may even maintain separate bank accounts and whatnot, the law doesn't recognize that.

I don't know, but it's clear that self-victimization, as a concept, is ridiculously popular. You all can see it in women's spaces, but it's here, too. I just wish there was more focus on how to make positive changes rather than airing of grievances.

Nobody is getting arrested for approaching a woman. I hope you don't really believe that's the case. It's a process for a woman to even get a restraining order against a repeated harasser, nevermind actually getting that harasser arrested. It may be true that men are frequently assumed to be seeking sex when approaching a woman, but for plenty of women that is their lived experience. Isn't it possible that too many men do actually behave that way, and this perception is therefore not the fault o…

Men aren't seen as entitled for simply wanting love. The notion of entitlement comes in when men act as if they are owed a partner, or haven't created their own value proposition that is attractive to a potential partner.

I used to visit the incel subreddit before it was banned, to learn about these people. They did believe they are ugly and would never have sex, and this frustration would lead to really disturbing ideas, such as: all women are shallow and slutty, girls "peak" at around 15 years old and are worthless at 30 ("hit the wall" -- they have terminology for everything), suicide is a good idea, etc. Elliot Rodger, an incel turned mass shooter, was celebrated.

Incel communities began to emerge online over the last decade. Within those communities, a sort of incel ideology arose, wherein many toxic views are embraced. They even have a term for believing in this ideology: being "black-pilled"--a play on the "red pill" meme used by pick-up artists and the alt right. Those who use incel as a slur are usually referring to people with these awful views rather than simply men who can't get laid.

Yes, the poor have more kids than the middle class. This can remain true even if births are down generally, and the disparity may even be exacerbated if it turns out the middle class more than the poor are making the calculated choice not to have kids. Anecdotally, I know multiple people who "can't afford to have kids right now." They aren't on as solid of a financial footing as their parents generation had been.

Young adults look at the financial burden of raising children and decide, rationally, that it doesn't work for them right now. Housing costs have never been higher. College loans, medical, all outpacing general inflation. Conservatives say "don't have kids if you can't afford them." Gen Y/Z then follow that advice, and conservatives are like "why isn't this generation having kids?"

It's one thing I don't understand about the alt-right in America. Don't want immigration? Lament the sinking domestic birth rate? The Left is right here proposing bigger child tax credits, child care assistance, universal pre-K, free school lunch, etc.--policies to reduce the burdens associated with raising kids. How do we not have agreement on these things? Then the social cons come in with banning abortion, how's that helping you?

Toxic masculinity, to me, is an insecure man's attempt to compensate by acting like a macho tough guy. A confident man doesn't need to put on such an act, doesn't put down others to feel big, doesn't feel the need to avoid interests that aren't stereotypically manly.

Being a SCOTUS Justice is a rare privilege that demands exceptional scrutiny, not a position one is simply entitled to. When accusations arose, they had to be addressed.

For one thing, sex is not and cannot be consequence free with current birth control options. Secondly, I think you're downplaying the burden of actually being pregnant and having to decide what to do about it--even if the woman ultimately chooses abortion. It's a heck of a lot easier for a man to say "whoops, I don't want a kid, bye" and just walk away from it.
/r/MensRights31/08/16 02:46 AM

I mean there is equal contribution to creating a pregnancy, but there is an unequal burden afterward. If a man can easily disavow fatherhood, all sex becomes consequence free for him. The woman is left to deal with it, which I see as worse than how things are now. If in the future medical science allows both men and women to be pregnant, we'd no longer have the inherent biological power imbalance. But by then we'd probably also have 99.99% effective birth control as well.
/r/MensRights31/08/16 01:29 AM

Same here. This sub raises many valid issues facing men and boys. But this one is a bridge too far. It would essentially create consequence-free sex for men, putting the hard choices and burdens onto women. The status quo does disadvantage men, but I feel this is one we have to accept simply due to biological realities. Heck, we men should feel thankful in the first place that we don't have to worry about becoming pregnant or ever birthing children.

I don't see that as fair, as it creates a situation with a very easy 'out' for the man. Just renounce interest in fatherhood, walk away, and never look back. It puts too much onto the woman, IMO. For something both had equal contribution to.

That's a slippery slope fallacy, though. Licensing guns like we license driving is not "the first step toward confiscation."

Looks like the posters are aimed at decent guys, encouraging them to speak up if they know of a friend doing these things. Honestly I didn't find these too objectionable, because unlike some offensive ones, these don't presume all men are natural rape machines. What makes it a problem, though, is that these only focus on men behaving badly. Why not a poster showing a woman emotionally abusing her partner, or suchlike? As to hypothetical posters about blacks and stealing, I could imagine a poster…

Right? And now that thread is obviously getting brigaded. Not cool.

From an insurance perspective, it's got to be cheaper to pay for a vasectomy than maternity and delivery, though.

I think most people, both right and left, assumed Obama only opposed gay marriage in 2008 for political reasons. It's not the same as a Rick Santorum opposing gay marriage, where you know he means that shit.

On Disney Jr. there is a show called Guess How Much I Love You that is very father-positive. It isn't the greatest show, but quite unique in its focus on the father/son relationship. I wish there were more like it.

How is it that Republicans are nut cases, but normally you like Napolitano? He may break from Republican orthodoxy sometimes, but usually he's on the same page.

Maternity care alone runs upward of $10,000 in the US, yet Napolitano argues for less Medicaid, no obamacare, less provision of government assistance generally. His political views are bad and he should feel bad.

The nazi thing is truly outrageous. One could turn it around and say only the nazis would deny people control over their own bodies. (Equally ahistorical but you get the idea.) These men never seem to consider the woman at all, and whether she has a say in a condition her body is about to go through--which carries risks, requires medical care, incurs costs, and so on. Bodily autonomy is a fundamental right.

In fairness to Sullivan, his comment was not made in response to this, but to something 50 Cent said: http://andrewsullivan.thedailybeast.com/2012/05/semi-evolved-marriage-equality-supporters.html

There's a difference between advocating and pushing legislation and "holy shit an election is coming...better declare LGBT month half-way through the month". Okay, but he didn't just do the latter. He did both. His DOJ stopped defending the constitutionality of DOMA and he got DADT repealed, among other pro-LGBT agenda items. He backs legislation for DOMA repeal as well. If it were all just empty talk, I'd agree with you. As for DREAM, it never manages to get through the congress. The more inter…

To me, the pander there was when he was pretending to oppose same-sex marriage (which few on both the left and right really believed he opposed). It was becoming increasingly silly and difficult for him to maintain that position, so he dropped it.

I personally don't see advocating for gay rights to be pandering. It's just the right thing to do. Obama has been pretty active for gay rights throughout his term. Similarly, Democrats have been pushing the Dream Act for quite some time.

The issue isn't whether you're happy with it or not. The issue is whether it should be done without consent. Glad you ended up happy with your outcome, but your parents simply could not know if you'd be happy or unhappy about it. It's just luck that you ended up happy with it. (And perhaps social conditioning, if we're being honest.)

With circumcision rates falling, it won't be the same as it was when our generation was younger. Each parent who decides not to circumcise is making it more common and socially acceptable.

The health care reform bill in the US prohibits charging women more than men for the same level of health insurance. I suppose what that means is men pay a little more and women pay a little less, to make the cost equal. The equivalent in the auto insurance market would likewise involve women paying more and men paying less, to meet at a middle ground where everyone pays the same.

That wasn't my experience. Multiple cop cars arrived, and they had my girlfriend get out of the car. They then questioned us separately and aggressively for what felt like a half hour, threatening to have us spend the night in jail unless we confessed to wanting to buy drugs.

This is true. I was pulled over once for driving while white through a black neighborhood at night. The presumption was, I was looking to buy drugs.
