The only answer I’d give is “l believe in equality of the sexes.” If they interpret that as an affirmative assertion for Feminism then correct them with “that’s not what I said. l believe in equality of the sexes.”

Women are completely unable to empathize with men on this issue. They can’t understand that simply accepting her word is just not good enough when your investment of almost staggering amounts of money, time, energy and emotional investment hinges on whether or not the child is yours. This runs counter to the current zeitgeist of “believe all women” while expecting you as a man to completely change your life because all she said was “it’s yours”. Until you have certainty do not acknowledge patern…

Even when men do have friends there’s a high likelihood that their wives don’t like them and probably do just as much “emotional labor” to cut them out of her and her husband’s lives.

It is a common occurrence. Just remember that, absent any additional context in which you are truly not adhering to your responsibilities, this is a “them” problem and not a “you” problem. So don’t be afraid to push back against them and tactfully explain your boundaries. If that doesn’t work then become more assertive in enforcing your boundaries.

It’s a two-income per household kind of economy these days. But too many people expect men to remain the sole provider. Also if you find yourself married to someone who either cannot or will not work and one of you pulls the trigger on divorce, there is a good chance you will continue to pay alimony and they are incentivized to push for sole custody and child support. Also if the divorce becomes contested, then you’re on the hook for legal fees both for you and the soon to be divorced spouse. Wh…

A bachelor is usually a smart man with a spine who rejected toxic women who tried to destroy his peace. He is a man who knows that there are too many women out there who are a net negative to his life and has concluded that it’s better to remain single rather than get entangled in a relationship with any of them. Another possibility is that a bachelor could have no clue how to talk to women and is hopelessly single. In this case he’s probably better off single but just doesn’t know it.

If anything I think male violence is actually at an all time low. I just simply don’t hear about as much violence being committed by young men as I did when I was young. That’s purely anecdotal but it makes sense given the times we live in. 30 years ago young people hung out all the time in groups sometimes doing stupid shit which included violence which often went undocumented since cell phones with cameras didn’t exist. Today young people don’t hang out as much in person and spend more time on…

They come at it from completely different angles but yes they absolutely love to attack MRAs. The left attacks pretty much all men in general for the so-called “privilege” men have when the reality is the only privilege men have is the right to die violently in either war, or on the job usually against their will. Meanwhile the right attacks men to keep them in their traditional roles as provider/protector even when performing in that role doesn’t make any sense for some men.

It is a little more than ridiculous to complain about one all-male mission when all the high profile missions have been a mix of men and women. This is especially the case given that there have been all female crewed missions to space before and given that they are not leaving orbit makes it more baffling that they’d complain just because the mission is part of the Artemis program and this sounds like a more mundane phase of the Artemis program.

Women have an entire professionalized area of academic research dedicated to every little nuance of their suffering while men have no such equivalent. This permits them to create a narrative of oppression by using an entire vernacular of technical terms and high-powered language with which they create the illusion of legitimacy and leave us with an institutional imbalance of power. At best men’s suffering is viewed through the lens of non-gendered human suffering and at worst through the lens of…

You’re right about how rare it is that men pay for children who are not theirs. However the success rate of men acquiring custody when they ask for it is misleading. They only ask for it when they have the resources to do so. Otherwise they are advised by their lawyers to not go for it. Divorce and child custody are matters of CIVIL law. Civil cases are won or lost based on who has the better lawyer.

This makes sense. I believe that in order to acquire and maintain power as a head of state, there is a very narrow path that all must adhere to and the requirements demanded of following this path do not differ even if the person is female rather than male. I think it is best explained by Machiavelli in that the only bad leader is a weak leader. To stay strong, there are very narrowly defined courses of actions that leader can undertake and ambitious women must do them the same as men.

Men die disproportionately in war. It sounds like the kind of plan the elites would execute as a hidden agenda to “burn off” the “excess” men. Fighting aged men need to make themselves less available for military service. Maybe then governments would understand their power as felt by their absence during a time of need when they couldn’t be bribed or bullied into risking their lives for a society that does not value them.

Isn’t it suspicious that white male medical school enrollment dropped from 31% to 20%? Also the figure of 31% was in line with that demographic as a percentage of the total population. That was an artificially imposed constraint which means that, in order to get to that figure, the medical establishment had to crush the dreams and hard work of thousands of young white men who were likely better qualified than many who were accepted who were from the target demographic.

I am not sure that ignoring pain has ever been a prolific coping strategy. I think it seems that way due to male loneliness becoming a known issue within the past 10 to 20 years. Before this, men had someone trusted to confide in and talk about their issues. Fast forward to today’s environment where men don’t have that support and I think what people see as “bottling up emotions” is really just men doing their best to cope in the absence of any real help being available to them.

A new and inventive way to leverage the patriarchy argument. Feminists just casually throw out that argument to justify even the most outrageous political positions you can think of to the point of dehumanizing men and relegating them to second class citizens. This argument underpins everything they say and do. It also never gets critically examined and has no basis in reality.

It’s also shocking how little this assumption is critically examined. Their narrative just simply goes along the lines of “men have always had power and nothing has changed”. While the truth is that there have been profound changes over the last 100 plus years such that the scales have actually tipped in favor of women. Also only a select few men have had all the power throughout time while the majority of the rest of men who have ever existed lived as either slaves or cannon fodder to such an e…

Male oppression has two sources 1) traditional male roles and historical treatment of men. Example: “it’s always been this way therefore it is perfectly natural to treat men this way and to assign them traditional expectations even if they are no longer compatible with the new expectations for women.” 2) collateral damage from women’s liberation and equality movements. Example here include the No Fault divorce which served to liberate women from bad marriages they couldn’t escape. It succeeded b…

I think a big reason why this is happening for all boys in Britain is because the ones who really need to hear this message belong to a protected class (e.g. non-white). Therefore in order to avoid allegations of racism they just make it mandatory for all boys.

No matter which side of the political spectrum they are on, a politician publicly revealing their support for men’s rights could be a political liability since the movement is still not very popular and creates backlash from mainstream conservatives and especially liberals.

You need to have a very specific plan for handling “non-conformists”. Everyone starts these things with the best of intentions but everyone is human and things don’t always go according to plan.

Hiring and promotion selection bias in favor of women in fields dominated by men in which less qualified women are selected over men. It should be the best qualified person regardless of sex. Period.

I looked at the percentages per serving. For women they have 150% of RDA for vitamin C and 100% for men.

Google seems to disagree with Centrum: No, women do not need more vitamin C than men; in fact, men generally have a higher recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for vitamin C than women.

However, requirements can increase for certain groups, such as pregnant or breastfeeding women, who need more, and smokers, who need an additional 35 mg daily due to increased oxidative stress.

There’s a lot to unpack here but my favorite “argument” in favor of alimony is “being forced to stay in bad marriages”.

I think the maturity process does that more so than marriage for men. It just looks like marriage civilizes men since marriage and maturity are occur concurrently. I think the only men who become civilized by marriage are those who fit the “bad boy” persona. As for the rest of us, our time is diverted to either parenthood (which often goes hand in hand with marriage though not always) or a lot of other things we’d rather not be doing.

Modern feminism is definitely not the equal rights movement it once was. To be clear though most, if not all of us, do not advocate for turning back the clock to the 1950s insofar as rights for women are concerned. However the powerful cultural and political machine that is feminism has gone too far and has become too difficult to stop as it eats into the rights and quality of life of men in the name of helping women. There is a lot of powerful advocacy contained in many of the institutions of w…

The development of birth control was spearheaded and funded by a racist, eugenicist woman who had clear intentions to encourage people she deemed as “undesirables” to use it but that fact doesn’t seem to stop women from using it.

Women find self-reliant and confident men attractive. Men like sex with women. Therefore men work towards achieving confidence and self reliance in order to be attractive to women and get sex from them. To do this, men keep their emotions bottled-up and when men step outside this archetype every man’s SO loses respect for him.

Historically speaking, men became eunuchs for a reason. Usually to work in a palace around female royalty so that they would be sure not to sire any unauthorized offspring with them. Typically when you work with any higher echelon of a society, you also have access to their resources. This means that, as horrible as it is to lose genitalia, they had access to a much higher quality of life than your typical layperson during the timeframe in question. That higher quality of life probably fully exp…

Yet another problem solved by paternity testing. If a man has this right to get one any time, then he can just simply do a “trust but verify” just to be sure.

The term is never used in good faith in any context. There are always men who behave badly just as there are women who behave badly. The responsibility for the bad behavior is usually the fault of the individual and seldom the fault of the group to which they belong. Using this term ascribes way too much responsibility to the group (men in this case) for bad behavior and becomes very damaging to all men when used. Therefore it should simply never be used.

A man’s only leverage is to learn to be okay with being single. He must identify what he wants in a relationship and seek it out. If he doesn’t find it he has to be willing and able to stay single and if he finds that he has to compromise too much to the point of a power imbalance then he has to walk away. Furthermore, being single I think is something men are far better equipped to deal with than women so long as men have at least a few friends.

Not wrong and also it’s a methodology supported by the United Nations.

This is true even if women have vastly higher outcomes than men and there are no means to quantify anti male discrimination. Source: “Of Men and Boys” by Richard Reeves

Just the mere fact that men require at least 20% more calories of food per day is sufficient to render half of the pink tax moot. Monthly pink tax amounts to just over $100 per month for your average woman. And according to this the average woman pays $406 per month on groceries and the average man pays $458. Also men pay anywhere from $15 to $100 more per month depending on age for life insurance which probably accounts for the rest of the pink tax. This is just scratching the surface.

It certainly feels like that’s the center of gravity for a lot of men. Even if you marry a woman who is equally committed to holding down a full time job and earning similar income as you, they sometimes revert to part time or just entirely quit and leave you holding the bag as breadwinner. Sometimes it’s for a good reason to become a SAHM when daycare costs more than the income earned from her job. But it’s also not uncommon that they do this for more frivolous reasons.

Just remember the reason for being a good guy is because it is the right thing to do. It has very little to do with dating. I’m sure it counts for something with women, but it’s probably nowhere near the highest priority even if they might openly say otherwise.

The patriarchy construct does two things. 1. Provides a framework for establishing women as victims for all problems which befall women. They try to extend this construct to men as well, but it fails when men seek redress and are told either their problems are not as bad as they think or “women have it worse” and therefore women need to be prioritized. 2. Here’s the really slick part of patriarchy: when men have legitimate issues, women and feminists conveniently wash their hands of any responsi…

One bit of information that I think really confounds the claim of sexism in e-sports is the fact that the best chess players in the world are men. I think the best women chess players are no where near the top. This is very telling because while playing chess in a competitive environment, you don’t socially interact with your opponent which makes it impossible to claim harassment. Also physical advantages such as greater strength or speed have no meaning in chess. Therefore in terms of gender dy…

In summary what defines sexual harassment is a huge moving target, nebulous and almost impossible to define. This means it is far too easy to weaponize against men. It is also extremely problematic for men since the social expectation that they approach women and not the other way around has not changed.

Actually greater rights for women in the west has in fact resulted in lower fertility. When having children becomes optional or can be delayed, the result is typically that people choose to delay having kids in favor of other priorities. Women are told they can delay having kids until their 30s, however a downside of waiting until then is that women end up having fewer children the more they delay. This is a fact that feminists neglect to share with many women as they plan their lives. The end r…

To be clear, I don’t think anyone is asking to roll back the status of women to what it was in the 1950s and before.

I don’t think it’s “toxic masculinity” that influences men in pursuit of excellence. I think men do in fact have an instinctive drive to want to feel like they are the best at something. However when taken to an extreme, it can be a coping mechanism. The most common example is if your domestic life is in the dumps, some men throw themselves into their work as a form of escapism.

The controlled gender pay gap is the only legitimate measure which the article pegged at 99 cents on the dollar. So basically the gap is non existent. The “uncontrolled” wage gap simply boils down to choices men and women make.

In my view, the one universal tenant of manhood is the ability to define for yourself what makes you a man and live it regardless of any social or peer pressure you may face. This tenant holds true for two reasons: 1) it is impervious to the ebb and flow of today’s gender-fluid environment and the less concrete definition of manhood as compared to a generation ago. 2) It is a tenant for which femininity cannot make a similar claim due to the fact that women tend to be relationship oriented, thus…

I seriously doubt the 92% figure is accurate. You might get into the same ballpark if you include cases in which 50/50 custody was awarded but even then I don’t see it getting to that. Second point, I think the reason men don’t seek custody, if that is a true statement, is because many know they will lose the case and so they don’t even bother. They might try if they knew they had a decent chance at getting a fair shake in the courtroom rather than running into rampant bias.

Women sometimes pay alimony too in cases where she makes significantly more money than her husband. On another note, It’s still a long shot to say that alimony is out dated since it would be reprehensible to leave one spouse completely destitute in cases where one spouse hasn’t worked in years or even decades. I would vote in favor of temporary alimony used to help pay for acquiring useful job skills and be phased out over a five year period and ban lifetime alimony payments. If a verified condi…

Be prepared to become a lightning rod and build your case as though you were going to trial. Have lots of reputable sources and be ready to refute their counter-arguments.

Generally bad behaviors by individual men that get falsely ascribed to all men so that feminism can weaponize it to gain power over men.

Women get to choose twice while men only get to choose once. Both men and women choose once when they have sex. But once pregnant, only the woman gets to decide for a second time.

The only reason I have ever thought of my height (5’4”) as a draw back is because it is a huge deal breaker for most women in the dating world which was a source of agony for me during my bachelor days. Otherwise I never gave my lack of height a second thought and I am sure a lot of other men feel the same way. I’ve seen a lot of questionable things attributed to that imaginary “patriarchy” but this one is by far the most spurious.

It’s very telling that the only feminists I saw questioning this overreach were older women. I think that’s indicative of how modern feminism has corrupted its original purpose.

I am not so much concerned with the idea of these standards as I am how women express this preference. I have a SIL who said that it is more important how a man makes her feel than how he looks. Then in the same breath expressed relief that her husband is tall. That’s when my bullshit alarm started blaring. I have no problem with women having physical preferences because men have them too. But I just wish they were more honest about it.

I agree not all women are evil. I think the best skill a man should develop in this day & age is to become an excellent judge of character. If we can learn to cultivate good relationships with the good women in the world and shun the bad ones, then I think that will solve a lot of our problems.

I don’t know where she learned about masculinity, but a masculine person strives to not let any negativity, mocking or harassment affect their confidence, judgment or positive mental state. Therefore men who exhibit signs of “male fragility” are not truly masculine men but are actually men with fragile egos.

Only when people realize that feminism and men’s rights are not mutually exclusive movements. Men’s needs are just simply different than women’s. Also the myth of the patriarchy needs to be completely destroyed. If there ever was such a thing it was a privilege reserved for a minuscule minority.

“It's easier for them to bounce from one girl to the other…” perfect example of a woman taking her experiences dating the top 10% of men and ascribing the horrible experience to ALL men. Does it ever occur to women that these high value men have options and when a man has options you’re going to see this kind of behavior?

Absolutely. The modern Army has jobs for everyone of all physical and mental abilities. You don’t always need the fastest and strongest in every every job. In fact for a large proportion of jobs it is better to be mentally sharp though everyone needs to be able to function in austere environments.

Except many generations before us didn’t live a normal life and far too many saw battlefields from which they never returned alive. The lack of a large scale conflict over the past 77 years is an exception which feels like the norm.

You would think we could fight the unequal sentencing bias. One of the reasons certain groups are advocating for abolishing the death penalty is its unequal application against minorities. One would think we could fight the longer sentencing of men using the same logic.

There were a lot of women who fought against other women against the advance of feminism. In a lot of marriages back in the 1950s and before, there were a lot of women who just simply took it upon themselves to take up domestic duties and never express any desire to work outside the home. Often times it wasn’t men who enforced this it was mothers and grandmothers ensuring that this happened. So to say it is “men do it to themselves” is exactly the same argument you might have heard some 70 years…

My only concern is how would 6 to 12 months of leave impact non-parents who might be called upon to go above the call of duty to cover their absence? I am involuntary childless and if we’re only talking about a little less time off then okay. But if it turns out to be the case where someone like me can’t get a day off when they really need one, then we might have something to talk about.

This is nothing new. A century ago, we implemented eugenics programs in the US which imposed mandatory sterilization on person deemed unfit to reproduce. They gradually faded away when people realized that this was far too similar to Nazism with the last of these carried out in the late 1970s. However I am fairly certain that this is now considered a crime against humanity.

We pay fines for breaking the law all the time for things like speeding and parking. But the biggest fines we will pay are the ones paid by men who are usually straight as an arrow whose only crime was not being a good husband in the eyes of just one woman.
