| 5 | Are you fucking kidding me? This has always bothered the shit out of me.More likely that a lot of people know better than to just take a passage out of context and wanted to check the whole song to avoid getting burned. If more people did this the post wouldn't have 600+ points from knee-jerk reaction. | /r/MensRights | 17/08/12 06:36 PM |
| 1 | Current legal case in Nova Scotia may set precedent for equating non-consent regarding birth control to sexual assault.This bit sounds encouraging: In this particular case, the use of a condom goes to “the very core” of the issue of consent to sexual activity, he said. I think it's particularly interesting case, and a different twist that a male is being prosecuted for something a lot of men fear. It seems to step past gender lines and look at the issue from a gender-neutral stance. I hope its something that can bring men and women together on the issue; as seeking the conviction for this man shows sympathy for … | /r/MensRights | 08/06/12 07:03 PM |
| 2 | Current legal case in Nova Scotia may set precedent for equating non-consent regarding birth control to sexual assault.Depending on the outcome of the appeal, lying about birth control, or not concenting to sex without protection could constitute sexual assualt for both men & women, and possibly remove the liability for child support. Choice quote: Crown attorney (prosecutor) Jim Gumpert acknowledged the case has huge social policy implications. Under questioning by the appeal court judges, he said he believes a woman who has lied to her partner about taking the birth control pill has also committed a sexual ass… | /r/MensRights | 08/06/12 05:46 PM |

| 2 | Beyond Borders is still claiming that "more than 90% of child sex offenders are male."I heard a radio ad today claiming that Men are responsible for 95% of sexual violence. When I visited the site, that claim was ammended to 90% of sexual abuse against children. From what I've read on MR that doesn't seem accurate. I saw that this popped up here about a year ago, but it seems like they're still pushing the same message a year later. This seems like an orginization that does good work, but there must be a way to do that without gender-blaming. My biggest issue is that anyone liste… | /r/MensRights | 28/02/12 02:15 AM |
| 3 | Sheryl Sandberg, COO of Facebook, sees "ambition gap" for women.we have equality nowhere. How can anyone have a rational discussion when they undermine whatever good points they have by mixing them in with gross hyperbole? She creates a rift between herself and the people she needs to reach, and creates confrontation instead of finding common ground and compromise. | /r/MensRights | 14/02/12 06:19 PM |

| 5 | Disgusting Super Bowl ad. (Oikos Yogurt)The Fiat ad during the Superbowl showed a women slapping a guy in the face for checking her out. Certainly not as violent as this ad, but just adds to the reinforcement that violence is Ok, depending on the perpetrator. What makes it worse is that this ad has been lauded as one of the more successful ads of the day. | /r/MensRights | 06/02/12 06:54 PM |
| 1 | Rape Myths And Facts according to Roger Williams UniversityDoes anyone else first skim through an article to see if they quote the 1 in 4 "fact" before giving any credence to it? | /r/MensRights | 08/11/11 12:25 AM |
| 2 | Interesting? Overwrought? Both? (masculine indoctrination in Disney films)As far as body image goes, there's stark contrast between the typical barrel chested GI Joe protagonist in western culture, and the tall and thin image that portrayed in Japanese animation (the only other point of reference I have for animation standards). I can't say that japanese culture is definitively more accepting of slimmer body types, but in my personal experience that ha definitely been the case. It would seem that animation provides a clear example of what society expects a man to look… | /r/MensRights | 01/11/11 08:50 PM |
| 4 | Should Men Have the Right to Financial Abortions?A financial abortion strengthens a woman's position of 'my body, my choice'. Their right to that decision is at its strongest when the decision only affect them, and no others. Tying another human's life to that choice adds a 3rd party to the situation, creating a 'your life, my choice' scenerio and weakens the 'my body' argument. This should be seen as a win-win option for anyone interested in equality and is a proponent of personal choice: a finacial abortion is good for women and men as it st… | /r/MensRights | 21/10/11 05:27 PM |
| 2 | Why women need a 'mommy's salary'- Apparently they should be legally entitled to 10% of their husbands salary.At which time the non-working partner takes their 10% of the savings and/or ongoing 'salary'? I don't think Luthebe has thought this through. Or maybe she's going for a long term plan to improve divorces for men under the guise of feminism. | /r/MensRights | 14/10/11 10:39 PM |

| 5 | The next question is obvious: Why isn't it sexual assault when she lies about birth control?We could hope and push that one will lead to the other. Law is all about precedent; the crown prosecutor drew an analogy of not disclosing an STD, which has clear parallels to lying about birth control. While the judge rejected that analogy, it does show that the government is looking at those sort of parallels. All men involved in tricked impregnation should know about this, and we collectively need to keep pushing until it is accepted in the courts. Key passage: In a split decision, two judges… | /r/MensRights | 28/09/11 07:44 PM |
| 1 | Sexist stereotyping from Ikea. [X-post to videos]Well it's not racist stereotyping... Mostly its the newscast which glibbly equates men to stupid children. While I normally stick to more significant matters, social perception matters too. Serious matters rarely get by on the merit of the facts; it takes public perception to sway decisions, and when men are so often stereotyped without rebuke it undermines the acceptance of major issues. Sure the newscast was tongue-in-cheek and light fluff, but public opinion is far too often that this is ok, … | /r/MensRights | 19/09/11 08:57 PM |
| 0 | Coworker warned me that she felt harassed; advice?Honestly, when you put it like that it seems like he's fucked either way.. 'He ignored me because I'm a women' sounds like it would be pretty damning too. | /r/MensRights | 15/09/11 10:00 PM |
| 6 | Colleges expand definitions of sexual misconduct to punish consensual sexI don't even think language is necessary. What if you coerce a women by showing your butt in those pants? Maybe she was coerced by your deep blue eyes. Fact is, she wasn't thinking about sex, then she saw you, which coerced her into wanting it, and now you're a rapist. | /r/MensRights | 09/09/11 08:48 PM |
| 1 | [x-post] Why the Gender Gap Won't Go Away. Ever.You have seen a gender-gap in your career, and I have seen one in mine. Its possible neither may be representative of the whole picture, and we shouldn't try to encapsulate the gender issue this broadly. I stand by the notion that we need better data before it is used to affect policy. | /r/MensRights | 10/08/11 11:41 PM |
| 2 | [x-post] Why the Gender Gap Won't Go Away. Ever.You add good factors that should be considered, and the socially acceptable aspect of things is huge. I'm planning for my first child, and cannot make any headway that I should be taking at least some of the parental leave. Boss (Woman), partner, and family don't seem to think that I should take the leave, despite my partner making significantly more than I do. Of course, from a women's perspective it may look like she's forced into the parental leave, but from my perspective I don't even have t… | /r/MensRights | 10/08/11 09:05 PM |
| 4 | [x-post] Why the Gender Gap Won't Go Away. Ever.I don't get your reasoning; you only offer anecdotal evidence, but the evidence you do offer suggests that women make more than men, as you make more than your husband, and suggest you make more than most of them men here. You also bring up points that suggest that other factors such as how hard a person works, and what specific profession they work in plays a factor in pay, and its not just a matter of aggregating all men and all women in to single piles and added the wages. The article's prima… | /r/MensRights | 10/08/11 08:45 PM |
| 3 | F*** you, MensRightsIf there was ever an topic that could splinter MR into several factions, this will probably be the one. It definitely seems to be the 'either with us or against' issue. On the one side there is the notion that this is a core issue, an imperative injustice that needs to be dealt with now. On the other side is notion that any progress that MR makes, any acceptance as a legitimate movement is undermined by associating anti-circumcision with it. It does seem that we can't a-la-carte select the issue… | /r/MensRights | 09/08/11 07:06 PM |
| 4 | F*** you, MensRightsNot sure which group you're mad at: Undermining anti-circumcision by associating it with MR, or undermining MR by associating it with anti-circumcision? | /r/MensRights | 09/08/11 06:31 PM |
| 2 | Why don't men have any rights with regards to unplanned pregnancy?When you present a list of rights like that, it seems like the best way to reach a better equality would be to re-prioritize the rights as needed or add other rights to that list. Just as a woman's body trumps a fetus's life, perhaps we need to set a hierarchy for other rights, and the necessary provisions to make them work. | /r/MensRights | 20/04/11 06:04 PM |
| 1 | Why don't men have any rights with regards to unplanned pregnancy?I'm not sure if this is an anti-abortion argument or not. I guess that's the part that's hard to understand. | /r/MensRights | 20/04/11 05:53 PM |
| 2 | @ Women who "Aren't Like That."Is this in reference to something specific? what is the That that they are not like? If they are saying they are not like people that say "you are just bitter, and stupid, can't get laid, have emotional issues", and then say that exact thing, then obviously, yes, they are like That. | /r/MensRights | 01/04/11 09:49 PM |
| 5 | A young man’s right to choose NOT to be a father…The argument "my body, my choice" is at its strongest when that decision doesn't affect other people. When the courts ruled that a fetus was not a person, it separated that choice from other persons and made it a personal decision. But if that choice becomes irrevocably connected to another human for the rest of their life, than suddenly "my body, my choice" becomes more complicated. I would think to strengthen that argument it would be better to separate it from any outside considerations. If s… | /r/MensRights | 28/03/11 09:19 PM |
| 5 | Gotta love West Virginia, proposing a bill to forbid adulterous spouses from collecting alimony from a divorceI'm not saying I'd support this, but it seems like this could be dealt with in a list of clauses that seem to be included with most laws. The law could be nullified after a set term of separation. Personally, in today's western world where 2 income households are standard, I think alimony is an outdated concept. | /r/MensRights | 16/03/11 04:48 PM |
| 6 | “No man can call himself free who does not own and control his own body. No man can call himself free until he can choose consciously whether he will or will not become a father” - Margret Sanger, but with genders reversed.In this issue I would definitely support women pushing this message if they just phrased it as: "No person can call themselves free who does not own and control their own body. No person can call themselves free until they can choose consciously whether they will or will not become a parent.” | /r/MensRights | 24/02/11 05:52 PM |
| 1 | Dying to be treated like on of the guys.The part of the article I have a hard time with is that while Gooseberry Bush is stating that she thinks women should be able to serve or be drafted, it's not stated that she supports lower testing standards for women. That may well be the case, but it's not indicated in the article, so we're forced to make our own assumptions, or research into Gooseberries stance. Taking the article at face value, all we know is that Gooseberry supports women in the Military, and feminists in general believe in… | /r/MensRights | 18/02/11 07:53 PM |
| 3 | Air New Zealand Stands on its Sexist PolicyJust as a further example of why statistical profiling is wrong, here are a few examples of other statistics that we shouldn’t use to profile demographics: “children whose parents are unemployed have about two times the rate of child abuse and two to three times the rate of neglect than children with employed parents children in low socioeconomic families have more than three times the rate of child abuse and seven times the rate of neglect than other children living with their married biologica… | /r/MensRights | 26/11/10 08:16 PM |
| 5 | Air New Zealand Stands on its Sexist PolicyI think you will find that an important aspect of Men's Rights is that statistics shouldn't be used to create generalizations about men. True or not, statistics indicating that men are more likely to molest become stereo-types when applied in this manner. Even if (using random numbers here) 0.1% of men are molesters versus .01% of women being molesters, the likelihood that you personally are a molester should not be considered any more likely than a random woman standing beside you. Both genders… | /r/MensRights | 26/11/10 08:01 PM |
