| -26 | More knowledge bombs over at r/blackpeopletwitterI'm not so sure this is true. I subscribe to /r/childfree, and you'll notice a majority of the posts are from disgruntled women being pressured to have kids. | /r/MensRights | 11/02/18 12:03 AM |
| 2 | Good to see this in public media!Oh of course I'm not suggesting it was bad decisions. I totally get your feelings about it. I'm thinking more rationally. If she wasn't ready then it could have a significant negative impact on the child. You guys can discuss more and and wait if it's something you can forgive. Both parents should be ready. If it's not something you can forgive then find someone new. I'm not claiming these are easy choices to make. I'm just claiming these are the rational things to do. | /r/MensRights | 07/02/18 08:32 PM |
| 2 | Good to see this in public media!Do her reasons for not wanting to continue the pregnancy matter to you? It's 9 months of incubation that she clearly doesnt want to do. If you want to be a father, let her be and find someone who wants to be a parent with you? I legit see no negatives to this, unless the guy doesn't care about the girl he knocked up and has such a narrow vision of his future he only sees a new baby, but not the time it takes for the woman to carry the pregnancy. I have a hard time seeing how you would be okay wi… | /r/MensRights | 07/02/18 06:57 PM |
| 1 | Good to see this in public media!Abortion isn't even 100% effective I disagree? I've never heard of a case of an abortion not working | /r/MensRights | 07/02/18 06:42 PM |
| 3 | Good to see this in public media!Haha I guess we just focused on different parts of the same argument. Cheers man | /r/MensRights | 07/02/18 03:27 PM |
| 4 | Good to see this in public media!I've already admitted there is risk. And mentioned there are safeguards in place to mitigate that risk (birth control, condoms, sterilization, plan B/C, abortions), none of which (barring abortion) are 100% effective. These safeguards exist to preserve our right as humans to autonomy. Which sex is a part of. My argument is that when you forgo these safeguards and choose to have a kid anyway, then and only then do you forfeit your autonomy (in favor of the now new human kid). I'll be damned if I … | /r/MensRights | 07/02/18 02:58 PM |
| 7 | Good to see this in public media!you forfeit the right to autonomy the moment you decide to have sex not just decide to make a child Disagree 100%. Sex is part of autonomy. There are safeguards in place to mitigate accidental and/or unwanted pregnancies. Not everyone has sex willingly or in the right state of mind. It's when you forgo these safeguards and have a kid that you forfeit autonomy, in favor of the kid. I deal with facts and actual things that happen, not what might happen. That's like saying you forfeit any right to … | /r/MensRights | 07/02/18 02:10 PM |
| 4 | Good to see this in public media!It's much more nuanced than that. Consider all the possibilities. Neither wants to abort. Good! Though they both should be able to afford the child. Both want to abort. Good! She wants to abort and he doesn't. Her body, her choice. I'm fully in favor of this. If someone told me I had to incubate something in my body for 9 months with hormonal fluctuations, just to pawn it off for someone else, I'd tell them to fuck off. (Note I'm a guy). She doesn't want to abort but he does. Again, it's her bod… | /r/MensRights | 07/02/18 01:36 PM |
| 6 | Woman Tweets That Her Son Is Puzzled About A Feminist Talking Point - Men Objectifing Women -That She Cannot AnswerHow about Warren Farrell's assertion that men are money objects. Are you saying men want to be objectified by money? Women don't want to be objectified any more than men do. I don't think your rationale holds. | /r/MensRights | 31/01/18 04:25 AM |
| 4 | Serious question. Can anyone name one right that American women do NOT have?You didn't pose a question about equality, you posed a question about a right that a woman doesn't have. Since you edited you comment I'll respond. On paper it's shitty that men get shafted on abortions, and financial abortions seem like a nice idea. Something to consider though is that if he does financially abort the child, and the woman remains single, will she have enough money to properly raise the child? This is the courts logic. It's a lose lose situation, there's no way everybody comes o… | /r/MensRights | 22/01/18 01:25 AM |
| 2 | Serious question. Can anyone name one right that American women do NOT have?show me a study and then we can talk, because I know they ban men from certain procedures. A study about how more women are rejected for sterilisation? Really? Not providing a women with a abortion isn't a issue because women aren't entitled to the service, they are only entitled to seek it. Seriously? Women are 100% entitled to bodily autonomy, abortions included. Just because people don't want to provide you with it , isn't having your rights violated. Imagine a woman accidentally gets pregnan… | /r/MensRights | 22/01/18 01:17 AM |
| 5 | Serious question. Can anyone name one right that American women do NOT have?A young guy will have the same issues as a young women, and for good reason. You don't browse /r/childfree that often, do you? Because that's patently false. abortion is legal, it is up to them to acquire the funds, transportation and a willing doctor. So you admit there are roadblocks in place explicitly to make it more difficult for a woman to have an abortion? | /r/MensRights | 22/01/18 12:46 AM |
| -2 | Serious question. Can anyone name one right that American women do NOT have?Probably because men don't bear fetuses. | /r/MensRights | 21/01/18 10:55 PM |

| 3 | Serious question. Can anyone name one right that American women do NOT have?In many states, women will struggle to find a place to have an abortion done. While it is federally legal in all states, there are many road blocks put in place to make it more difficult. Another issue is sterilization. There is more social pressure on women to have families than for men. This makes doctors more reluctant to sterilize women. Now granted this isn't a rights issue per se, since they access to sterilizing procedures, it's just a little more difficult to have done as compared to a m… | /r/MensRights | 21/01/18 10:14 PM |

| 1 | How do you respond to feminists when they try to prove male sexual privilege with statistics?Great response, as usual. A very tiny, sightly tangential addition: On okcupid there are match questions people can fill out. Two of them: Is a man who has had over 100 sexual partners a bad person? Is a woman who has had over 100 sexual partners a bad person? I couldn't tell you how many answers were "yes, no". Interesting discrepancy. | /r/MensRights | 24/12/17 04:25 AM |
| 16 | How do you respond to feminists when they try to prove male sexual privilege with statistics?That begs the immediate question: men and women make up a roughly 50/50 split in population. So why, then, are there so many individuals perpetuating these crimes from only one gender if the issue isn't the gender itself? At which point you're right back to square one and still have to have a response ready. Just devils advocate here | /r/MensRights | 20/12/17 04:22 PM |
| 24 | [Retrospective] Feminist Julie Burchill said it was "nice" that more boys commit suicide than girls. 15 years later, her son killed himself.One quote of hers stuck out to me: when she mentioned people with mental health problems should be forcibly injected with meds, concluding it with "fuck human rights". A feminist, one who values women's rights, actively saying "fuck human rights" is beyond hypocritical. It's sick. | /r/MensRights | 13/12/17 05:17 PM |
| 2 | Watch me get banned from /r/sex for calling circumcision MGM.Thanks for occupying my morning. I'm gonna leave now, I'm gonna go bench press an elephant. Nice chatting with you | /r/MensRights | 04/12/17 02:55 PM |
| 2 | Watch me get banned from /r/sex for calling circumcision MGM.That doesn't seem to reflect your earlier arguments where you'd be willing to tell someone with a scar that they're mutilated. And that you'll probably get mutilated later. This is fair/consistent to FGM? | /r/MensRights | 04/12/17 02:48 PM |
| 2 | Watch me get banned from /r/sex for calling circumcision MGM.Because you opt to use the emotive word mutilate in lieu of the neutral word circumcise. I'll ask you point blank: why do you think the word circumcise is insufficient to describe the removal of foreskin on the penis? And why do you think mutilate is more descriptive? | /r/MensRights | 04/12/17 02:38 PM |
| 1 | Watch me get banned from /r/sex for calling circumcision MGM.You didn't, I assumed, and apparently incorrectly. I took a shot in the dark that most passionate people on this topic are circumcised. In that case, why do you feel so passionately about this topic? | /r/MensRights | 04/12/17 02:28 PM |
| 1 | Watch me get banned from /r/sex for calling circumcision MGM.I'll just leave you with the rest of my thoughts: my penis functions fine, from every vantage point I analyze it. Every woman I have been with has not reported an issue. So the only one saying there is a problem with my penis in this comment chain is you. If you feel there is something wrong with your penis, by all means. I don't feel there is anything wrong with mine, and you claim there is simply because 1) you're circumcised and feel mutilated and 2) I'm also circumcised. In essence, your ent… | /r/MensRights | 04/12/17 02:13 PM |
| 2 | Watch me get banned from /r/sex for calling circumcision MGM.I can't think of a single instance wherein someone would refer to a part of a human body as "mutilated" and still say it's neutral. Mutilation has negative connotations for obvious reasons. By calling circumcision mutilation, you're telling people how they should feel. I'm circumcised. I don't feel mutilated. And I find it obnoxious when people try to tell me I am. In the same way I'd feel annoyed at someone trying to tell me I'm mutilated for having my appendix removed. Or having a scar on my b… | /r/MensRights | 04/12/17 01:52 PM |
| 3 | Found on Facebook. Basically condemning every shy guy for eternity.it's not natural for a man to sit back and let the woman do all the work. Ah, the old "it's not natural, so it's wrong" argument. Where else has that argument come up regarding civil rights? | /r/MensRights | 28/11/17 06:53 PM |
| 1 | Sexually Harassed by Women?I can recall two instances when i entered a bar and a woman ran her hand up my chest (one in the shirt, one outside of the shirt). One said she just wanted to feel me. Once I had a yoga class and had trouble feeling a stretch in my back (I felt it in my calves instead). So I stayed after to ask her, she had me bend down as usual and it's not clear if she grabbed my glutes to push into position or to just grab them. I've also been catcalled once by a group of overweight black women. Walked back h… | /r/MensRights | 04/11/17 02:24 PM |

| 5 | Long Article Attempts to Explain Why a Clear Double-Standard Totally Isn't A Double StandardShort guy here (5'3"). This means I'm shorter than roughly 98% of the male population in the US. There is certainly a level of objectification that occurs in dating, wherein many women would say they refuse to date a guy shorter than they are (even in heels). I'm very picky in dating, so I totally understand where a girl is coming from there. Just like I can't choose to be taller, she can't choose to be attracted to shorter men. Like how I didn't choose to not be attracted to fat girls. I've nev… | /r/MensRights | 15/09/17 01:01 PM |

Here's my attempt at such a comparison.By your definition I would not be considered to have been "in shape" because I wasn't thin and didn't have washboard abs, despite the strength, just like how you said OP couldn't be chubby and in shape. Did you even read my original comment? I'll quote the relevant part: Chances are, if you have a BMI over 25 and cannot bench your bodyweight, you're fat and unhealthy. By this definition, you'd be considered "in good shape" and not "chubby". FYI, abs are made in the kitchen (by eating to reduce b… | /r/MensRights | 23/08/17 01:17 PM |

Here's my attempt at such a comparison.You misunderstood the point of that comment then. If your BMI is over 25, but you're ridiculously strong, then even though your body mass index is high, a majority of that mass is muscle mass. Not fat mass. Being able to bench your own body weight isn't necesarily [sic] a great metric. Emphasis mine. Care to elaborate on the necessarily aspect? Regardless of the MRM, I don't like bullshit.

It's pretty consistent for people who aren't professional bodybuilders/powerlifters. Chances are, if you have a BMI over 25 and cannot bench your bodyweight, you're fat and unhealthy. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. Certainly not deserving of being called "in good shape" | /r/MensRights | 21/08/17 03:00 AM |

Here's my attempt at such a comparison.what exactly means that I'm not in shape? Being chubby. Being overweight doesn't mean being obese, you're right. Being chubby means overweight.

You're saying that nothing is definitely true then. While technically you're right on scientific backing, as no scientist claims with certainty that something is true, their claims are true with 99.9999999999999999% certainty.

I fail to see how taking an expert's word on their area of expertise is a fallacy. That's like saying "Don't trust your doctor - that's fallacious." Doctor J. is an expert on brain cancer Doctor J. claims I have terminal brain cancer Therefore, I probably have terminal brain cancer. Okay, fine, let's say I don't trust my doctor.

| 1 | Male AbortionsIt's not the same logic at all though.

If a woman gets pregnant and doesn't want it, while a man wants to keep it, if she aborts it then the man was deprived of something he wanted. A child (that must be supported) won't exist. If a woman gets pregnant and wants it, but the man doesn't, and she opts to keep it, then something was brought into existence against his choice, something he is part… | /r/MensRights | 09/07/17 01:01 PM |
| 2 | Male AbortionsI totally get where you're coming from, I'm just objecting to your usage of killing babies. Babies are undeniably human, but fetuses or even the stem cells that eventually multiply into a fetus? I don't think it's fair to call those babies. It's language from a smear campaign against abortions. Just wanted to highlight that. | /r/MensRights | 09/07/17 12:51 PM |
| 0 | Male AbortionsFetuses are hardly human. Looking past that though, a vast majority of abortions are done very early during pregnancy, during the first trimester (less than 12 weeks). To my understanding, the fetus hasn't even developed a functional nervous system yet and can't even feel pain. So I'll leave it to the reader to determine whether these bundles of cells are human. To me, it's no more human than a sperm or an egg. | /r/MensRights | 09/07/17 12:30 PM |

We could probably get by fine without it from birth. Losing foreskin doesn't physically change much for a majority of cases. Furthermore, our body swells during an injury for a reason (e.g. ankle sprain). As you learn quickly, it slows down healing and is far more painful than it needs to be.

And a baby cannot consent. You say I cannot equate caretaking with sexual assault. I agree.

| 1 | Circumcision is not rape...I don't think that's good logic. Observe: I don't feel comfortable that my parents scrubbed my genitals as an infant to clean them. Therefore both of them are perpetrators of sexual assault. The fact that I (and I'm sure others) feel this way should get lawmaker's attention on how this is wrong. | /r/MensRights | 27/06/17 06:19 PM |
| 1 | Circumcision is not rape...I read the OP. And I see your point (even though it's mostly an emotional one). You state if someone fiddled your genitals (and cut the foreskin), that it would be rape. A baby cannot consent to it, so it's rape. That's the vestige of logic I can find in your OP. Now I extend it: If someone scrubbed my genitals without my consent to clean them, that would be sexual assault. Babies cannot consent to baths. So shouldn't scrubbing a baby's genitals be sexual assault? If you say no, then I have to s… | /r/MensRights | 27/06/17 06:15 PM |
| -1 | Circumcision is not rape...And raping is not equatable to carving either. I want you to justify why bathing and cleaning a baby's genitals is not rape, while cutting the genital is rape. I agree that bathing a baby isn't carving them. I also assert that snipping them isn't rape. I've justified my position. Can you do the same? Use logic, not insults or emotion. | /r/MensRights | 27/06/17 06:09 PM |
| 0 | Circumcision is not rape...Who are you to assert that a parent authorizing a circumcision isn't doing it out of caring for their child? If you want to dabble with legality and definitions (claiming circumcisions are rape), you must be consistent. Why is that rape but bathing and scrubbing a child (especially their genital area) not sexual assault? You must justify this. Recall: babies cannot consent to it. If someone scrubbed my penis to clean it, against my consent, to make sure I was clean, that would be sexual assault. | /r/MensRights | 27/06/17 06:04 PM |
| 0 | Circumcision is not rape...Your argument doesn't make any sense. Babies can't consent to being naked either. Does that make every parent who changes diapers a predator, stripping their baby multiple times a day? How about bathing them and scrubbing them? If I don't consent to being bathed and someone bathed me against my will, that'd certainly be sexual assault no? So is every parent who bathes their baby (without their consent) sexually assaulting their baby? | /r/MensRights | 27/06/17 05:59 PM |
| 1 | Proof that people will only care about the suicide epidemic once it starts to affect girlsAs I've already mentioned twice, the CDC does not differentiate between self harm (with the intent of suicide—which is what you call "suicide attempt"), and self harm without the intent of suicide (which you call "slef-harm"). They do not differentiate because they currently do not have a good way to differentiate it. As I've also already mentioned, if you're going to assert that this is sinister and lying in nature then you're going to have to explain a way to differentiate the two. Otherwise I… | /r/MensRights | 25/06/17 08:27 PM |
| 1 | Proof that people will only care about the suicide epidemic once it starts to affect girlsIt's not a sleight of data hand. As I've quoted, the CDC cannot differentiate between self harm with the intent of suicide and self harm that accidentally almost leads to suicide. If you want to claim that this is a sleight of hand, you must explain how it can be differentiated in the statistics. I assumed you had insight on it because you're suggesting the CDC is flat out lying about their inability to differentiate the two. | /r/MensRights | 25/06/17 05:24 PM |
| 1 | Proof that people will only care about the suicide epidemic once it starts to affect girlsI did a ctrl+f search for every instance of self-harm. There are four. each year the CDC gathers data from hospitals on non-fatal injuries from self-harm. .... approximately 12 people harm themselves for every reported death by suicide. However, because of the way these data are collected, we are not able to distinguish intentional suicide attempts from non-intentional self-harm behaviors. ... Many suicide attempts, however, go unreported or untreated. Surveys suggest that at least one million p… | /r/MensRights | 25/06/17 01:20 PM |
| 0 | Proof that people will only care about the suicide epidemic once it starts to affect girlsI didn't see a focus on children or women in your third link. Also, can you link specifically to where your first and second links target children and women? I can't seem to find where you're looking. I also recall reading that women attempt suicide three times more often than men, so there's that. Here it is: https://afsp.org/about-suicide/suicide-statistics/ | /r/MensRights | 25/06/17 12:52 AM |
| 9 | TIL: r/childfree is a whackass feminist retard subredditI actually lurk childfree a lot, as a male, and rarely post. I think your characterization of them is a bit harsh and swift. It does seem to lean more feminist than many boards (especially this one), and I think that's expected given most of the user base is women who feel exiled from society for not wanting kids. I just finished reading most of that thread, and I do think they have a huge misunderstanding of what much of men's rights looks like. Although to be fair, I do see some really childis… | /r/MensRights | 21/06/17 06:33 PM |
| 3 | Nantes : since they don't have the right to wear shorts, bus and tram drivers goes to work... in skirt [x-Post /r/France]I see a lot of stories like this. Are there any follow up stories? Did the company allow men to wear shorts after? Did they ban skirts for men and women? Did they penalize the men who wore skirts? I'd like to see some follow up stories on these things. | /r/MensRights | 21/06/17 02:19 PM |
| 1 | Male Transgender Sprinter Wins Girls State Championship — as a Freshman. How do you like them apples, feminists?Men have higher gray matter densities in their brain than women. In contrast, women have more white matter densities in their brain than men (interestingly, multilingual persons also have higher white matter densities than monolingual persons). I'm not a neuroscientist, but to my understanding gray matter is linked to spatial reasoning so your claim seems reasonable. What's also interesting is women seem to have better memories than men. There's a study that had men and women wait in a room fill… | /r/MensRights | 16/06/17 03:05 PM |
| 1 | Dating FeministsI interpret it more as a risk-reward analysis. If there's even a 1% chance that any girl you date could falsely file a rape claim against you is not worth it to some men. Is it likely to happen? No. But it's possible, and to some men I suppose the reward of a girlfriend/marriage/etc don't justify the risk of s potentially ruined life. We know cases like this exist, the only question is how often. It'd be like a woman abstaining from relationships out of fear of a potentially domestically violent… | /r/MensRights | 15/06/17 05:50 PM |

| 6 | Dating FeministsThis is actually spot on. I have a morbid sense of humor, so during election season last year I would routinely say things like "bow down before your future supreme Lord-emperor Trump!" I'm sarcastic by nature, but what I didnt expect was to trigger many extreme leftists with a statement like that. It's how I found out my housemate is unreasonable. Despite my many explanations that I was voting third party and that I was a registered Democrat, he assumed and asserted to others that I voted Trump… | /r/MensRights | 14/06/17 09:11 PM |
| 8 | Why Marriage is Too Risky for Men | Karen Straughan's speech to the Sydney InstituteI can't attest to whether his statistic is correct, but let's assume it is, that is that 95% of women are aware of and/or will actively take advantage of the system which grants them power. In the US, there were 126 million women in 2014. About 27% of the population in the US is under 21 (again in 2014), so let's assume the women we want are over 21 -- so that there are roughly 92 million women over 21 available. Then if only 5% of women are "fine women", that leaves about 4.6 million "fine wome… | /r/MensRights | 14/06/17 03:06 AM |
