| 1 | A feminist is calling for all men who accidentally impregate a woman to be forcibly castrated, and for all males in the US to receive vasectomies at the onset of puberty. Thousands of people are agreeing with her - and this is perfectly acceptable to Twitter’s moderating team.Thank God that the law protects me and my daughters from people like you. | /r/MensRights | 18/09/18 01:04 PM |
| 1 | Can we talk about how breastfeeding is a bullshit reason to deny equal custody??There is a big difference between "ya done fucked up, now you need to put yourself 110% into making the best of the situation for your child" and "you are not worthy of forgiveness." | /r/MensRights | 18/09/18 01:00 PM |
| 3 | Can we talk about how breastfeeding is a bullshit reason to deny equal custody??If you don't understand that a child is vastly better off living with both their parents, then you don't understand anything about children. Sometimes, breakups need to happen. People who have so misjudged themselves and/or their partners that they break up shortly after conceiving a child have failed their child badly, and need to acknowledge that fact and do everything they can to minimize the harm done. | /r/MensRights | 18/09/18 10:46 AM |
| 2 | Can we talk about how breastfeeding is a bullshit reason to deny equal custody??I figure that if a baby's brain can tolerate the stress of full-time daycare, it can tolerate the stress of being handed back and forth between mom and dad. The small amount of research that has been done on this indicates that very young children do better with week-on, week-off shared custody than daily switches. It's not ideal, but nothing about the parents of an infant splitting up is ideal. | /r/MensRights | 18/09/18 10:42 AM |

| -1 | Can we talk about how breastfeeding is a bullshit reason to deny equal custody??A neonate who is breastfeeding should not be seperated from the lactating parent for more than a few hours until lactation is well established and formula supplementation can be introduced without significant risk of compromising the milk supply. How long does that take? It's variable. There should probably be guidelines at the federal level that address the median range of cases - i.e., a healthy baby who is gaining appropriately is ready to be separated overnight at 6 months or so.

You had no right to the use of her body, and were were deprived of nothing that you were entitled to have. You eventually had children with a woman who wanted to start a family with you, rather than being a single parent to a child whose mother did not want them. This ex-girlfriend that you are so angry at made a responsible choice that has benefitted you, your wife, and your children tremendously. | /r/MensRights | 17/09/18 11:16 PM |

I understand that it was not the outcome you hoped for, and if you tell me that you would not have forced this ex-girlfriend to carry a pregnancy to term and give you the baby if the law had allowed you to do so, then I believe you.

Thousands of people are agreeing with her - and this is perfectly acceptable to Twitter’s moderating team.You say that as if it were a bad thing, that men cannot force women to gestate. I care very much about leveling the playing field in the matter of reproductive rights to the greatest extent ethically possible, which is why I support the option of legal paternal surrender when men conceive a child they do not want, and shared custody when men separate from a woman who bore a child that they did want.

Do you have any contact with them? The reason I ask is that you are talking about re-entering the modern economy with a presumably large debt, and that is going to be a massive, massive hassle. I don't know if Australia arrests people who reappear on their radar after abandoning kids - but I don't want you to find out the hard way. It won't help your older kids if you go to jail now, and you'd just end up abandoning a third kid in Thailand.… | /r/MensRights | 04/09/18 10:38 AM |
| 4 | Prostitute spared jail after raping 14-year-old boy, who felt he was under peer pressure to lose his virginityI have a son this age. If he successfully solicited a prostitute, I wouldn't be mad at the prostitute. I'd get him tested for STDs and take away his Internet access for a year, because he would have shown me that he was not ready to communicate with the whole wide world without physically and emotionally endangering himself.

I hope that this incident scares your wife into getting some professional help, if that's what she needs to get her drinking under control. Even if she isn't willing to do that yet (nobody can fix an addict until they are ready to get fixed), you two can set some ground rules to reduce the risk of another incident in the future.

We're slowly, bit by bit, slipping into a two tier society, one for women, one for men.The first female-only music festival was the Michigan Womyn's Music Festival, which was held annually for forty damn years. It ended in 2015, and I was glad, because I find the entire concept irritating. But it was a private event held on private land, and if there was enough interest in it to sustain it for four decades, then the organizers correctly identified and served a consumer desire. | /r/MensRights | 02/09/18 11:49 AM |

If you just say you want your kids to have something in your ideal world, but aren't prepared to take action to create the needed changes, your words aren't worth anything.

I wish that they'd access more healthcare, insist on better working conditions, and close that gap. If I were a gynocentrist, then I'd be largely OK with the current status quo for middle-class women in America, and would be focused on expanding their privileges to poorer women.

It is also illegal to serve alcohol to people under the age of 21, so there's another law allegedly broken.

| 5 | On a post where a single dad talks about how he was lucky his wife reasonably understood she was not going to be a good parent and he did not have to go through a sexist justice systemI think it's probably due to the fact that women can have kids, and retain custody of them, with practically zero effort. A single man who becomes a custodial parent usually has to show some pretty serious initiative to get in that position. The guys who would be marginal parents don't show that initiative, and our system leaves thevkids with a marginal mom, dumps them on grandma or auntie, or puts them in foster care. | /r/MensRights | 02/08/18 07:50 AM |

Divorce impoverishes children, unless one or both of their parents are wealthy. I think that this 18 months of jailtime option is an urban lege… | /r/MensRights | 18/07/18 12:36 AM |

I'm somewhat familiar with the various abuses made possible by Indian family law, but in this specific case, I do not see what else the court system could do to resolve cases where one spouse is an NRI and refuses to return home to appear in court.

Despite that the boy's father and mother went to the police multiple times earlier, the abuse went on for years because their concerns were ignoredThis was not a foster care situation, and as far as I can tell, there is no evidence of a sexual relationship prior to the age of 16 (which is the age of consent in Ohio) or during the time that the adult taught at the school attended by the teen. However, it is illegal to have sexual relations with a child in your custody, and the teen's mother granted her partial legal custody, so in this case, we get the satisfaction of seeing the creepy adult prosecuted. | /r/MensRights | 31/03/18 11:51 AM |

Women face similar issues with regard to body shape and facial structure - some of which are far more alterable than height, and some of which are not.

Gender roles converging.I don't think these kinds of studies are worth the paper they are printed on, because there is no agreed-upon definition for what counts as time spent of child-rearing. The French, for example, have lengthy and ritualistic family meals on a regular basis. It is a major component of their children's socialization.

The solution is healthy women liking to be looked at and healthy men liking to look, and all adults understanding the massive moral gulf between the desire and the act. | /r/MensRights | 20/09/17 06:31 PM |

You'd have cause to bitch at your wife if she fucked up at work and got fired, and she'd have cause to bitch at you if the kids weren't taken care of properly or the house was filthy or something actually significant like that - but no, the fact the she makes the big paycheck doesn't mean she picks the children's schools and activities and you scurry around carrying out her instructions.

| 2 | TIL The vast majority of men in the United States weren't allowed to vote until 1856.When I was a little girl, the oldest living generation in my family talked about getting the right to vote. They were adults, some of them college graduates, in the 20th century, and not full citizens of their country. Now I have little girls, and the oldest living generation in our community talks about surviving the Holocaust.

The one universal rule is that the parents CANNOT be charged with abandonment or any other offense in connection with their proper use of the Safe Haven program. I understand your desire to have the laws and procedures neatly laid out and easily understandable, but that's not how lawyers create job security. But if your concern is for the children, then to the best of my fairly extensive knowledge, every child eve… | /r/MensRights | 20/09/17 01:59 AM |

| 1 | What’s Wrong With “After-Birth Abortion”.... and do men's votes count when it's no longer HER body?Good question. In every Safe Harbor case that I have ever heard of or read about, neither the mother nor the father was assessed child support. The cops and social workers like to interview the people who left the baby, and always try to find them, but the goal is not to make them raise or support the baby. The goal is to confirm the baby's identity, discover if there are any fit and willing relatives who want to adopt, and to expedite the adoption. | /r/MensRights | 19/09/17 09:52 PM |
| 1 | What’s Wrong With “After-Birth Abortion”.... and do men's votes count when it's no longer HER body?I wish more people would realize this. Safe Harbor is NOT abandonment. It's an adoption pathway for families too broken to handle adoption the proper way. | /r/MensRights | 19/09/17 12:49 AM |

James Damore was right.Yes. Hers and the guys who remained in her previous field. I'm married to a naturally inclined engineer who started in the overwork culture at age 18. There is no doubt that he loves the field - and no doubt that the 7-day workweek would have shortened his life and made our children's growing-up a blur to him if he hadn't switched gears and/or I had to work and couldn't schedule our family life around his availability.

My experience with neonates actually leads me to agree with those who say that a newborn is basically an extragestational fetus. They are not people in the way that toddlers are people. Anybody with a new baby, a two-year-old and the ability to internalize uncomfortable truths is likely to reach this conclusion if they sit down and ponder the differences in their offspring.

How much does a person have to despise men to think that a sex toy will be seen as a replacement for a life partner by any but the most socially marginal males whose options are 1) live alone or 2) live alone with a doll?
