2	All-women Ghostbusters reboot starts to collapse at the box office: ticket sales drop 46% - 63% after just one week Employee of the Month is the only one I remember. I enjoyed it as a silly movie though.	/r/PussyPassDenied	26/07/16 02:26 AM
9	Female teacher pleads guilty to 28 counts of sexual abuse against a middle school boy, but won't go to jail No, they cannot. At very least legally.	/r/MensRights	30/06/16 09:15 PM
2	Y'all turning into SRS. We need to fix this place. Although I would like to point out that being "above" SRS isn't really something to be proud of in and of itself. They are, to most of Reddit, the lowest possible bar to clear.	/r/MensRights	25/10/12 10:06 PM
1	Today at school, I was barred from attending an assembly about rape and domestic violence because only women were allowed in. You are 100% right on the men opening up. As for the degrading into norms, I would worry about a female only or male only group "dehumanizing" the other side though.	/r/MensRights	19/10/12 04:43 AM
4	Today at school, I was barred from attending an assembly about rape and domestic violence because only women were allowed in. One counter, since I mulled that idea in my head as well. The best way to reduce the feeling that the other gender is "bad guys" is to breed familiarity. You do that by being around each other and sharing ideas, which you cannot do in a single gender setting. I understand your feelings about gender specific issues, and it is very valid. I just feel that there should some middle ground, as gender isolated seminars are, IMO, a breeding ground for unfounded fears of the entire opposite sex.	/r/MensRights	18/10/12 10:56 PM
6	Today at school, I was barred from attending an assembly about rape and domestic violence because only women were allowed in. Pay particular attention to the remedy you want - how can they fix this? That's the shitty part. The easy way is to make it open to all so everyone knows sexual assault and domestic violence are not gender issues, but human issues. The challenge to that will invariably be "females are less likely to feel safe opening up in a co-ed environment". I don't know myself how to reconcile those two things in an acceptable way myself, but I would be interested in hearing ideas.	/r/MensRights	18/10/12 10:53 PM
3	Male Midwife Gets Banned From Breastfeeding Training Class (What's Next, No Male OB/GYNs?) I understand that, but it would have been impossible for her to have that past experience if it were not for her gender. Or she could have had a prior patient with the same symptoms.	/r/MensRights	09/10/12 07:38 PM
5	Male Midwife Gets Banned From Breastfeeding Training Class (What's Next, No Male OB/GYNs?) She used her gut and personal life - not her medical training - to diagnose me, and again, she was trying something that was not in any way textbook. What Jesus_marley is trying to get across is that this had more to do with past experience than her gender. It's quite possible a male doctor could have had a patient with the same symptoms you had and fixed you up, but you never went to a doctor prior to the female one with the relevant experience needed.	/r/MensRights	09/10/12 06:17 PM
9	Male Midwife Gets Banned From Breastfeeding Training Class (What's Next, No Male OB/GYNs?) Growing up, I never had a single male doctor throughout all my sports physicals and other issues "male" related. Never thought anything of it. You assume the medical doctor is qualified, knowledgeable, and professional. That's why they are wearing the white coat after all.	/r/MensRights	09/10/12 06:13 PM
6	Defending rape and defending the right of a Human Being to a Fair Trial are two completely different things. Do rapists sink or float?	/r/MensRights	01/10/12 08:38 PM
10	Defending rape and defending the right of a Human Being to a Fair Trial are two completely different things. The bad thing is those are always female teacher on male student (and both females and males are way to quick to side with the "the kid probably enjoyed it" in these cases). At least male teacher on female student is treated like it should be. A person in a position of authority taking sexual advantage of a person who is too young to understand the situation at all.	/r/MensRights	01/10/12 08:37 PM
1	Children's charity supports ban on all men sitting next to children in airplanes, still no mention that the only known case of in-flight child sexual harassment was a woman harassing a boy Canada always makes more sense than the US. Except curling. That shit is baffling.	/r/MensRights	14/08/12 07:36 PM
2	Children's charity supports ban on all men sitting next to children in airplanes, still no mention that the only known case of in-flight child sexual harassment was a woman harassing a boy Before the comma, I was a bit creeped out. After the comma, it made more sense. I like that take on it.	/r/MensRights	14/08/12 07:24 PM
2	Children's charity supports ban on all men sitting next to children in airplanes, still no mention that the only known case of in-flight child sexual harassment was a woman harassing a boy Depends on the country. IIRC, Europe's law codifies rape as penetration, but sexual abuse is more open. US law is more open on both counts unless something changed recently	/r/MensRights	14/08/12 06:57 PM
5	Children's charity supports ban on all men sitting next to children in airplanes, still no mention that the only known case of in-flight child sexual harassment was a woman harassing a boy Between most women not having penises What does that have to do with anything? Are you using the BS definition of "if it isn't penetration, it isn't sexual assault"? Women and men both are physically able to perpetrate a rape or a sexual assault, on either a male or female victim. Gender does not make you unable to cause sexual abuse.	/r/MensRights	14/08/12 06:38 PM
2	This needs to stop. Now. Jokes are one thing, serious statements are another.	/r/MensRights	25/07/12 06:39 PM
10	This is how /r/feminism responds to people who may disagree with them. This was the top comment. Wow. As someone who has tried this before, you get the same results on almost every subreddit. The subreddits seemingly love becoming echo chambers and smash disagreement. I am impressed they let you get as far as you did, usually they just ban you.	/r/MensRights	24/07/12 06:36 PM
1	Barnes and Noble tell a 73-year-old patron that men can't be by themselves in the children's area. Amazon already has some of the best pricing around, as well as having the ability to sell from private sellers and having the money back guarantee (which for me is why I never buy eBay and only buy online at Amazon).	/r/MensRights	06/06/12 10:56 PM
8	Barnes and Noble tell a 73-year-old patron that men can't be by themselves in the children's area. You think so? Amazon carries so many products and has such well documented great customer service I really don't think B&N with their horrible online store and notoriously poor customer service would offer even the weakest threat to Amazon. As an Amazon customer off and on for years for things I cannot find in brick and mortar stores, I for one will stay loyal to the company that has never treated me poorly.	/r/MensRights	04/06/12 06:51 PM
3	"Women are more likely than men to stalk, attack and psychologically abuse their partners, according to a University of Florida study that finds college women have a new view of the dating scene." Oh that is true as well. I would have liked them explaining that statement a bit further, I guess.	/r/MensRights	05/04/11 04:20 PM
5	"Women are more likely than men to stalk, attack and psychologically abuse their partners, according to a University of Florida study that finds college women have a new view of the dating scene." I read it. I was trying to wrap my head around that statement. If they (women) are the predominant abusers as well as the largest number of victims, that does imply that there is a significant number of women on women abuses, doesn't it?	/r/MensRights	05/04/11 04:06 PM
2	"Women are more likely than men to stalk, attack and psychologically abuse their partners, according to a University of Florida study that finds college women have a new view of the dating scene." I don't think he was disagreeing, I think he was just restating with his own two cents. Both of you made similar posts, but with slightly different "meat and potatoes".	/r/MensRights	05/04/11 04:04 PM
3	"Women are more likely than men to stalk, attack and psychologically abuse their partners, according to a University of Florida study that finds college women have a new view of the dating scene." People who are raised in violent households or who are shown or taught that violence/intimidation are valid solutions are very likely to perpetrate violence when they solve problems in their lives. It is a very well documented cycle.	/r/MensRights	05/04/11 04:00 PM
3	Did the "I stopped taking birth control and woops I'm preggers" thread scare you? Here's how my bf knows for certain that I'm on birth control. You picked a crappy name to use to dole out medical advice with...	/r/MensRights	08/02/11 11:20 PM
2	This wasn't my University, but the same thing has happened twice at my University... "carry concealed or unconcealed on his or her person any dangerous knife"	/r/MensRights	17/09/10 04:10 PM
3	Is this rape? First hand account from a girl who convinces herself she has been raped Allegedly. The woman who wrote this story not only gave some verbal consent to sexual activities AFTER the "we're not having sex" line, but she cannot even determine if she did in fact have sex. There was no sexual kit taken, she was not taken to a medical center, etc. This is all speculation after all possible proof is lost. Even if there was no second consent after she said no (which, according to her there was), there is not even proof of sex, which is somewhat important when you are consider…	/r/MensRights	03/09/10 05:21 PM
