| 1 | I feel sick to my stomachNo, that's an anecdote. It sounds like you're not that clear on what emotional reasoning actually is, assuming (for discussion's sake) that that's what you meant by "emotional argument." Emotional reasoning is when you use feelings, in place of logic, to draw conclusions. So for example, if I concluded your comment was invalid just bc its annoying, *that* would be emotional reasoning. But in simply recounting a personal narrative that highlights or aligns with others' viewpoints, there are no co… | /r/MensRights | 10/07/21 11:45 AM |
| 2 | Is this supposed to be funny?There’s funny “haha,” and then there’s funny, “uh-oh.” That’s funny like last week’s sushi. | /r/MensRights | 25/06/21 05:02 PM |
| 3 | I feel sick to my stomachNo, sounds like you don’t get it at all. Paragraph 3 is bonkers; I’ve never heard anyone make this argument before you. | /r/MensRights | 22/06/21 06:47 PM |
| 7 | I feel sick to my stomachDoesn’t matter if you’re not a pedo, if your crime involves hurting children you will probably be on the “chomo” level of the totem pole. At least prison does one thing right. | /r/MensRights | 22/06/21 06:25 PM |
| 1 | Dad sentenced to 6 months for breaking gag order, objecting to daughter taking testosteroneAh, I understand what you’re saying. Thanks for the link. Seems like this is an extreme/rare case and I don’t have enough info to really form an opinion on how the Canadian judge chose to handle things. It seems like the fathers beliefs and rights are at odds with that of his child (at least by the judges view) and that’s very difficult to reconcile, especially when attempting to apply the law consistently. It’s also very unlikely. A long string of affirmative “if’s” would have to occur before y… | /r/MensRights | 24/04/21 10:26 AM |
| 0 | Dad sentenced to 6 months for breaking gag order, objecting to daughter taking testosteroneEh, that sounds like you’re prioritizing the public’s comfort level over the well-being of a child. It sounds like a trans integration plan, not a child protection initiative. After 20-30 years, so in other words the current and next generation of struggling young people would be completely ignored, except to do research on them. Who is that law supposed to protect? The people that are trans-phobic? I can’t swallow that. You site biological/developmental reasons for outlawing transition before 1… | /r/MensRights | 23/04/21 11:36 AM |
| 1 | Dad sentenced to 6 months for breaking gag order, objecting to daughter taking testosteroneWoa, gender pronouns, belief system, evil? I’ll need a pole for those leaps. And it sounds like your entire argument is based on another one... Can we agree that we both think the First Amendment is awesome, but it has practical limitations? I think that’s obvious to most Americans that have thought a bit past the idealism they learned in grade school, right? Now I’m not arguing in favor of any law or restriction, nor am I advocating one belief system over another. I don’t see how those are even… | /r/MensRights | 23/04/21 10:58 AM |
| 1 | Dad sentenced to 6 months for breaking gag order, objecting to daughter taking testosteroneNo one is forcing you. But the people you do disrespect might respond in kind - that’s all. But, yea, for the most part, legally you’re fine. (I wouldn’t be so confident that “ma’am” isn’t going to piss off a judge) “...why not let people reject...gender ideology and speak as they please?” If you scroll up you’ll find you’ve been doing just that and no one has stopped you. You can already live out all of your beliefs, and your point’s been taken. Why does it bother you so much? I don’t see why y… | /r/MensRights | 22/04/21 01:28 PM |
| 1 | Dad sentenced to 6 months for breaking gag order, objecting to daughter taking testosteroneUgh, yea munchcausens BP is some awful cringy stuff. You make some good points but you don’t address the other side of the problem. Of course it would be simple if we could outlaw transitioning before 18, and I think many people would be very comfortable with that law. But the fact is, it doesn’t consider the instances in which transitioning is actually the correct decision for the child’s well-being. I don’t think adults who would pressure children into sexual reassignment is nearly as common a… | /r/MensRights | 22/04/21 12:14 PM |
| 1 | Dad sentenced to 6 months for breaking gag order, objecting to daughter taking testosteroneAFAIK In the US, the judge can find you in contempt of court for pissing him or her (or whatever pronoun they please, more to the point) off in any way, so in that context, yes you are legally required to use that form of address. You can choose to withdraw those forms of respect but you will find it does not exempt you from the consequences. I also don’t know why you would. The fact that something so simple and inconsequential for you bothers you so much seems to say more about you than than th… | /r/MensRights | 21/04/21 04:47 PM |
| 1 | Dad sentenced to 6 months for breaking gag order, objecting to daughter taking testosterone“...part of the brain causing the dysphoria, not the rest of it.” Just because neuro researchers can do brain scans and see stuff light up doesn’t mean they’ve found the cause. Back to basics here: The mind and brain are not the same thing. Thinking that a psychological malady was CAUSED by a biological dysfunction in the brain (or body) was an erroneous assumption that that persisted for years and HURT many patients, before psychology was a proper field. Since Freud, we know better. You could s… | /r/MensRights | 21/04/21 12:33 PM |
| 3 | Dad sentenced to 6 months for breaking gag order, objecting to daughter taking testosteroneGreat to read some firsthand insight here - thanks for sharing all that. My mind cannot easily reconcile the belief that children should be protected, and the pain and suffering of young trans person, which I can only begin to imagine. But how do you protect a minor from hurtful opinions/practices of his/her own parents? Our system has always done poorly in this area. | /r/MensRights | 21/04/21 11:57 AM |
| -1 | Dad sentenced to 6 months for breaking gag order, objecting to daughter taking testosterone“No one should be legally entitled to be referred to as whatever they claim to be.” This is nothing new. People demand titles of respect like “sir” or “Dr” all the time. What’s the difference between that and a gender pronoun? Is the fact that you have to call the judge, “your honor,” offensive to you? | /r/MensRights | 21/04/21 11:43 AM |
| 3 | Scorned barrister, 33, who cried rape in 'evil' plot to frame her lover after discovering he was already married is jailed for at least four yearsI’ve had a scorned ex threaten to cry rape and it scared the shite out of me. I hired a lawyer and filed several police reports, invested a lot of time, energy, and money into protecting myself from something I didn’t, would never do. Rape should be taken seriously, and considerations should be made for victims as we’ve been slow to learn it’s a very difficult crime to report, but any women who has the gall to use a rape accusation as a weapon should be punished, not just for the men, but also t… | /r/MensRights | 21/04/21 11:34 AM |
| 3 | TW - Male Suicide ResearchI’m relating to this a lot. Toxic mom stuff aside (+1 here)...I can be totally open, talk about my abusive childhood, whatever, on Reddit because it’s anonymous. But to function in the world I express about 5-10% of that, and find private outlets for the spillover. Anger and apathy are the only emotions that are really universally acceptable from men; it can absolutely be a prison. People love to talk about “toxic masculinity” but I have not seen anyone attempt to address the societal reasons wh… | /r/MensRights | 21/04/21 11:20 AM |
