Though to be fair, the vast majority of the chicks in this image were giving token resistance to the 'pig' behavior. Not you know, actual resistance, but kind of a "I have to act like I don't want it" kind of thing.

Objectification is a useless term. The kinds of objectification that actually cause harm in any way, have other terms that better describe the action. Things like rape and assault. The kinds of objectification that don't actually harm people... Well... It's pretty benign because no one is actually being harmed. These harmless actions don't merit a label such as "objectification" because it needlessly pathologizes benign behavior. Thus, the term "objectification" doesn't have much practical appli…

What Cardplay3r said. Feminist groups specifically do things against men and their rights. Here is NOW's track record on shared parenting: https://www.avoiceformen.com/mens-rights/opposing-shared-parenting-the-feminist-track-record/ Here is Murray Straus explaining how feminists spread disinformation and conceal gender parity in domestic violence: https://pubpages.unh.edu/~mas2/V74-gender-symmetry-with-gramham-Kevan-Method%208-.pdf

It's one of those things that's only considered abuse when the man in the relationship does it. Nagging is another one. The reason why "nagging" is 'gendered' is because it isn't called nagging when men do it. It's called abuse. Men euphemize their abuse by calling it nagging.

Had I, a much smaller and less muscular and less athletic guy than Ray were slapping him and spitting at him, he would have knocked me unconscious and probably would have curb-stomped me into a coma; and it would be viewed as a fair retaliation. He gave Janay a punch that if he were to reveal his force in a percentage, I'd guess he would probably say anywhere between 40%-70% strength was behind it. No long-term physical issues as far as we know, and in fact from everything we know -- part of her…

In 2008 I took a nutrition class with one of the most prominent HAES authors Linda Bacon and I got practically no feminist politics in her lectures from what I can remember. If I were told that she was a feminist, it wouldn't necessarily surprise me. But if she was a feminist, she did a good job at leaving her feminism at the door when it was time to talk health.

I'm friends with a woman who has to unjustly pay a shit ton of child support debt (due to a year where she was unemployed) and she will likely never be able to pay it off for the rest of her life. The guy could, at any time, stop all of it. But chooses not to. This is not something we should be okay with just because she's a woman and it "reverses the roles".

She likely won't be as gung-ho about the men's rights movement as you want her to be and she likely won't be as androcentric in her views as you want her to be.

All that I would say... As an MRA... I really struggle with calling the action "wrong" if the rape did indeed happen. If it didn't happen however, it's insanely wrong... So much so, that I'd be in favor of the death penalty for it. Just personally, I'm conflicted. And I thought bringing up this point would be good food for thought.

Robbing is a far lesser crime than rape. So I can't understand the desire to want to ruin someones life just because they robbed me. I can understand the desire to ruin someones life if that person raped me however.

Ok... So if you were actually raped, but you don't have the evidence... You're okay with someone saying "tough luck" to you? Look at it this way. If they were really raped but didn't have evidence. What would be the best way to serve the guy who did it justice? Get back at him in the court of public opinion. Reasonable people won't ever know for sure what happened... But it is a sure-fire way for a rape victim to get back at the person who raped them.

And plenty of the homeless men probably also experienced domestic abuse, but simply are unaware that they could call their experience 'abuse' on the basis that 'men can't be abused'. At least not by women. And it's just a common thing all around that men don't describe their actual abuse as being abuse. It's not a male way to reveal their victimhood.

Voicing your unpopular, likely less often heard opinion actually counts as doing something. That's what's often missed in this characterization of those who just "complain online". The passing around of ideas works in a similar fashion as going around town putting up flyers. And you can do it with much less effort. The war of words and ideas is where movements in the seedling phase must get through first in order to have their activism be potent.

In the heat of the moment you're not always 100% sure if the person who is throwing a punch at you is capable of really harming you. And actually, even someone who isn't very fit is still capable of harming the guys nose, eyes and lips. Even if only minor cuts and scrapes, why should he HAVE to endure any more of that than he wants? Restraining still allows for more possible pain to take place.

Try "Why Men Are the Way They Are" by Warren Farrell. It's a good intro into the men's rights side of things. It is his most balanced book. Not overwhelmingly androcentric and it takes the woman's point of view serious: http://www.amazon.com/Why-Men-Are-Way-They/dp/042511094X/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1402078235&sr=1-1&keywords=why+men+are+the+way+they+are Another good intro book is "Loving Men, Respecting Women" by Tim Goldich: http://www.amazon.com/Loving-Men-Respecting-Women-Politics/dp/…

My stance has always been: What exactly is the harm in 'victim blaming' if you do not believe the victim should face legal consequences and you also believe that the perpetrator deserves to be punished to the fullest extent of the law? The harm, I suppose would be in some form of ostracism. But so what? If you're a victim of something, you're also likely to get quite a few people who do the complete opposite of ostracize... Namely, baby you and shower you with sympathy and affection. The whole w…

They have some blackmail advantages over you as well as some empathy gap advantages over you. If a woman wants to rape you, she can resort to threatening you with false accusations of rape or abuse to do so. These are less common tactics for male rapists because there's less of a chance of them working for a male rapist, and they also have physical capabilities that female rapists often don't have.

Feminists aren't that naive. They know that the word 'rape' is powerful. It's why they want it all for themselves. If they share it with men then they lose something. What, exactly, I'm not sure. At this point it just seems like they want it only to be able to own the entire narrative on gender. Whether it's "rape apology" or not, I don't know.

"Besides how's it a male power fantasy?" The way it has been portrayed. The gay culture with "tops" and "bottoms" and the prison culture where fucking other dudes in the ass is supposed to indicate the most unholiest and most degrading thing you can do to another person.

Most women I know exhaust themselves doing shit that their man doesn't ask for (and if they were to ask their man if they wanted it, they'd say 'no'). My mom exhausts herself by cleaning up every little thing in the house. Nobody tells her to do this. Nobody believes it's necessary. The house doesn't need to be absolutely 100% spotless at all hours of every day. A dirt…

What's annoying is that the only argument that feminists would have against what you said here is "stop blaming women for that"... Bizarre because you didn't actually blame anyone. You just pointed out shitty deals for some men. Feminists have to victimize themselves somehow; so they paint these statements as if they're being blamed for male problems. They probably are just trying to fight off the guilt of not actually giving a shit about these problems.

It's never laws necessarily (although they'll point at birth control not being covered and abortions being expensive or whatever as attacks on their rights)...

The thing that's bizarre is how little people actually pay attention to male looks being judged by society. The height of a man is insanely important. We named an entire psychological disorder off a dude who was really short; Napolean. I think this is one of those cases where people just pay less attention to the male point of view and pay more attention to the female point of view; in large part because women probably get more offended by their looks being judged harshly (IMO it's because their…

I think it actually could be argued that they are "higher socially" than adults. People care far more about a 9 year old than they do about a 44 year old. Kids matter. Their pain matters. Their lives are preferred when the ship sinks. Is this a bad thing? IMO no. But it is what it is. As for "freedoms"... Lets just say that most people when they look at what they'd rather have: The life of an adult with lots of responsibilities, or the life of a child with lots of social benefits and protection;…

This comment is the reason why "Patriarchy (TM)" is bullshit. It is in no way comparable to slavery. Women were a protected class that had a lack of agency. They were more comparable to how we treat children. Protected, but have to answer to someone. They weren't even close to being comparable to black slaves.

Lots of libertarian MRA's =/= libertarian banner. They don't silence or censor non-libertarian views on the sole ground that they are non-libertarian. For this, I don't believe they cross any lines. What you will experience at AVfM is what you would experience at any gathering that has a majority of one demographic. Like say, a white person hanging out with mostly black people. A woman hanging out with mostly men. It is going to seem (and most often correctly so) that there are 'slants' among th…

Most people dislike radical feminists; or stereotypical versions of feminists. "Dyke" haircuts and calling men pigs. The amount of feminists who fit the bra-burning stereotype are small. Most people may not consider themselves feminists, but they ARE gynocentric and they believe tenets of feminism without knowing that they are tenets of feminism. Such as the historical oppression of women and that women currently have it worse than men. And so if you're arguing with people who believe those tene…

I was on the A Voice for Men facebook page recently, and there was a JohntheOther picture that had garnered a bunch of attention. Arguments between feminists and MRA's. The MRA's did an AWFUL job of arguing (as did the feminists). And it was just ugly all around. I felt embarrassed reading constant "bitch" and "whore" and "slut" and "feminazi" or just plain "nazi".

"The problem is that they way feminism is currently structured, the men who agree and fight for it will subjugate themselves in order to be accepted, therefore no longer equal." It's women being slapped in the face with the obvious fact that feminism requires male subjugation. The cognitive dissonance is entertaining. "B-but feminism is about equality!" "Of course it is. Just look at all those feminist men acting as your equals."

Martin Luther King and others weren't in front of a podium calling for the censorship of white racist comedians (as far as I know). Despite the fact that very little was done about racist jokes during that time, western society has gotten better in terms of racist jokes. Maybe because, like you say, it was a reflection of society; not a cause for how society was. Censorship is regressive garbage. It's like attacking a straw man, or feeding a troll. It never solves the problems of racism, sexism …

And it is a very valuable facet that is being minimized. Equating those who only engage in dialogue as people who "do nothing", when they in fact do more than most other people.

Looking at someone in a strictly sexual sense is no worse than looking at someone in a strictly humorous sense. So both could be considered "objectification". For instance, we watch Chris Rock for the sole purpose to be entertained and to laugh. We have very little concern about anything else with regards to Chris Rock. If we're being consistent, then we're objectifying Chris Rock. If you care enough to be consistent with such bullshit, then you're going to have to explain how this is an immoral…

Plenty of people have bad experiences. Not everyone extrapolates from that experience that X group must be bad because of an incredibly small sample size of anecdotes. Considering how many of the tenets of feminism have spread like wild-fire throughout the country, I don't find it hard to believe that her small sample size of anecdotes mixed with feminist indoctrination is the cause of her shitty beliefs.

Very similar if not identical concept to what I presented. Your idea shows more nuance, but I only believe that nuance to be understood by feminists... The ones who have read the books. Outside of the feminist sphere, people just seem to believe that women have it worse than men and that women have been historically oppressed. Both my idea and your idea are expressed by people in identical gynocentric manners.

I feel like this has to be spelled out to people all the time when I say "feminists are like this" or "men are like this and women are like this". They get offended when it's a generalization about women. They usually don't get offended when it's a generalization about the human species.

I think things like "patriarchy" are mainstream period. The label doesn't need to be slapped to it, but "historical oppression of women" and "women have it worse than men" are things that the vast majority of the population in the U.S. believes. At least, it sure as fuck seems like it.

I suspect that he'd argue that the "potential converts" who don't make it to the end are the types of people he wouldn't want to be converted anyways. He wants people in the movement to be guided by a strong will and critical thinking, not their emotions or their ability to be offended. If you're someone who gets offended easily, he probably believes you to be expendable to the movement.

"I don't think it's really a secret that women judge men on several factors when assessing their potential as a partner." Of course. The lie that is being perpetuated and needs to be vehemently debunked is that those reasons aren't as shallow as men's smaller list of factors. Women get into so many abusive relationships for a reason. And that reason is that often times what they look for in men is incredibly shallow and it passes over important things like "will he be abusive towards me?" Obviou…
