1	r/MR has passed the 25,000 subscriber mark! Our best bet is to ignore them and remain vigilant in using our downvote/upvote buttons to keep extremist voices away from our movement (whether they be racist, homophobic, mysandric or misogynistic). That would be novel on here if you could. And as another poster said, the advice is spot on. 25000 subscribers, what percentage of them are: Feminists, militant or otherwise. Men here to make as many anti-woman, misogynistic comments as they can muster. Men who just like to bait the militant femini…	/r/MensRights	15/08/11 03:22 PM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Eek! You are right it does sound like that! I didn't mean it in a patronising way :-) I thought it was a more appropriate than " Hey I woukldn't mind a young Scots stud" :-P:)	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 02:53 PM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Yup I found that out after! I also heard the Weegie song the other day. sung by Aberdeen at a Rangers game.... naughty but it did make me chuckle. Ah bless, you are only a couple of years older than my daughter. <<< suddenly feels old!	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 02:38 PM

1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Nope never, only time we would use it is to say 'Americans use the word vacation instead of holiday' :-) We do use the word vacate though, as in vacate the building.	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 09:12 AM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Hehehe! While drinking tea is an essential British tradition, calling dinner tea is just odd to me. Some people call lunch dinner too! Mind you, I drink coffee usually, lovely lovely coffee!!	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 09:10 AM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? That is true! And hun is an insult to a Celtic supporter apparently! lol But if you could just round up all the men aged 35-52, over 5ft 9 and put them on a train down to me I'd be most grateful.... :-)	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 09:08 AM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Lol yes in Scotland, you can't sound Scottish..! And it is sexy...... rrrrrr!!! :-)	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 01:03 AM
2	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Naaah Scotland's way more interesting than America ;) Err...as a woman who, ahem, 'likes' the Scots accent on a man, I need no convincing that Scotland is more interesting than america! :-) Seriously? lol so in Japan a Chav is a yankee! I wonder if the term 'trailer trash' might be used to signify a female chav. Now I am wondering if men are called trailer trash too!	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 12:51 AM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Hahaha!! :-D See it works!!! Mind you all I want to shout now is " There is joose, loose abut this hoose" Thug, yeah might be it. I wonder if they have a subsection of chavs/neds... I am also wondering if they sell Burberry clothes, addidas trousers and white lightening cider out there too... :-)	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 12:39 AM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Can't say I am overly fussed about footie either! :-) Lol you should post with an accent, cannae, fae, wee, oot etc, and if possible through in the odd Taggart impression " There has been a murrrrdur" :-D Although I am now reading your posts with a Scottish accent!!! Ok if you have Neds, and we have Chavs, what is the American equivalent word?	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 12:26 AM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? I actually found it a bit baffling when a bloke on here called me a cunt, I am so used to it usually being a male-associated insult. My brain was like 'Why is he calling me a cunt, does he think I am a bloke?' I don't find it an insulting word, but I now understand why the poster used it so readily, because of the perceived reaction it might have got.	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 12:22 AM
2	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? I sense you are not from Glasgow then... or a Celtic supporter... :-P	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 12:17 AM
3	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Or a Ned. Or a Weegie :-D	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 12:12 AM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Something else occurred to me, men are called creepy by women, where as women are called 'psycho' by men. Whether the two words alike is an aside, but it was one other word that men use for women that you rarely heard a woman call a guy a psycho.	/r/MensRights	14/08/11 12:11 AM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? A strange thing here is dinner and tea, now I call it breakfast, lunch and dinner, with supper later, but Brits call dinner tea. For me, tea is well, tea as in the drink, with cakes or biscuits, perhaps served about 3pm ish.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 11:50 PM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Ohhhh I seeee. I knew about vacation but assumed it was just an alternative, I would have said 'I am on vacation'. I'd never fake being an American with any success! Taking a vacation.... hmmm... I guess sometimes we would say taking a holiday,if it was in reference to taking some time off work.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 11:35 PM
0	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Hahaha! I once had an American state that the Brits are weird because we say we are 'on holiday', as opposed to.... ?? No idea what else we could say.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 11:24 PM

1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? It is an awful insult when you think about it, makes you question your behaviour, ideals, what you said etc. You are right, and have given me food for thought.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 07:03 PM
3	So to recap.... Yeah, against my better judgment I wrote out a long response to confront your issues with the board, but the above paraphrasing makes me feel like I wasted my time Yeah you did waste your time.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 07:02 PM

2	So to recap.... Supporting positions such as free birth control for all women, but not men Ok, I shall say this in the most unaggressive tone possible, can you actually show me where I have said that? Because it is the opposite of what I support. and free childcare services for all women makes And where I said that too, because I think subsidised childcare, creches etc would enable more men to be able to be primary carers, and win custody battle without having to worry about losing work while they raise childre…	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 06:29 PM
3	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? There needs to be a reddit of 'Americanisms' and 'Englishisms' :-) One thing I find odd, when chatting to American friends on Skype is use of the word 'fix'. "I am just going to fix some coffee" "Come round and I will fix you some dinner" Brits say make dinner, or coffee, fixing is something you do things that are broken :-)	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 06:10 PM
0	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Most of the time the word dick and dickhead are attached to something definite. Guy's being a jerk, well he's a dick. He's sleeping around? What a dick! Guys are able to rationalize why the word is thrown at them and pretty much own it in the process because it's always triggered by something. Spot on. I use the word dick or dickhead when a man is acting like an idiot, or a jerk. Same as I would use the term silly bitch for a woman behaving the same. As an aside, if anyone is interested, in Sout…	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 06:08 PM
1	So to recap.... This subreddit is also full of feminists obsessed with maintaining their hegemony in the mainstream who do all sorts of lame trolling and downvoting because they see the writing on the wall. Looks like Cliffor has made another account in any case given the PM spam you got. Yes I can appreciate that, I used to qualify my posts with a "Well I am a 2X so I might have a bias but..." but told that wasn't necessary as people accepted opinion on here regardless of gender. Seems it is not always the cas…	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 05:57 PM
9	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Yup. Some men refer to their friends as cunts, in a banter way, without any offence intended or taken. TIL about use of the word cunt in USA is different to here.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 05:32 PM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? That makes it even more interesting, if only to me. Who would have thought that one insult would create food for thought :-)	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 05:11 PM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Lol! Yes my son tells me it can get a little 'tense' when he is playing it!. So is it because you are a different part of USA to Warden_05? I am intrigued now by the cultural/societal difference.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 05:05 PM
0	Crazy feminist troll caught lying and using sock puppets, lashes out at paranoia once caught. Not nearly as many subreddits as those involved with MR. By the way, I think you should compare the populations of specific subreddits. I think you'll find that the MR subreddits have far, far greater populations than the feminist subreddits. Really? I might take a look, I am still getting used to navigating Reddit at the moment, and I am still finding new reddits every day. I was just surprised to find it stretches out so far and to so many reddits.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 04:59 PM
3	So to recap.... If you want to comment here, you'll just have to accept a certain amount of hostility, at least at first. Women who have been here longer, such as rantgrrl and girlwriteswhat, have earned a reputation as true supporters, and are welcomed as such. But it might take months or weeks to be accepted. Nah it is cool, really :-) I shouldn't have to 'work' for acceptance, either I am taken on my own terms or not at all,regardless of my gender. Thick skin is not my problem, you may have noticed I am hard…	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 04:57 PM
4	So to recap.... Yeah I can understand that, I think any woman who wanders onto here expecting to be welcome with open arms simply because she is anti-feminist, is naive. However the forum sidebar and FAQs state it is not anti-women, and it is a pity that some men choose to be the opposite of that. I know I sound like a broken record, but it does nothing to benefit the forum and makes the jobs of feminist trolls much easier.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 03:33 PM
-1	So to recap.... I looked at a couple of your threads, and it appears that in some cases you instigated the exchange of insults. Like this: Yes a coupleof threads. I make so secret of my intolerance to stupidity. and ironically the same stupidity is rife on here as it is on feminist reddits. In another case, after receiving a rather rude response, you escalated aggressively: You call that escalation? I call it replying to a shitty rude response from someone who hadn't bothered reading what I had put, twisted it,…	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 03:28 PM
1	So to recap.... I can't. If women see this place as being automatically suspicious of their motives based entirely on their purported gender (something very easy to fake on the internet), then that is a serious problem. Well that is how I am feeling it, but certainly not from all members here, the vast majority are just fine. But I do feel I should be putting disclaimers at the end of my posts! Some posters just seem determined to twist whatever I say, presumably because it might not be in totaly agreement with…	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 02:59 PM

1	17, pregnant and off to jail? (judge debates whether or not to send a girl found guilty of 16 counts, including kicking an officer in the face, should have to do time) No that is a very good point, there is all this focus about keeping fathers with their children, making sure they are part of their life, being there at the birth etc but I doubt very much that is taken into consideration when sentencing like it is for women.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 02:37 PM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Ohhh I see. Yes women here get offended by it, not sure why because it is just a slang word for vagina. But I have most often seen it used by men against men, which has always struck me as odd because it is female parts. Thanks for clarification. You can carry on agro now if ya like.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 02:25 PM
1	Is it fair that it's socially acceptable to call a male a dick, or a dickhead, but it's not acceptable to call a female a cunt? Seriously? (any agro aside here) I am actually genuinely surprised at that one. I am a Brit so it might just be a difference of culture. Is it women calling other women it or men calling women it?	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 02:19 PM

Cunt is usually a word used by men on other men,that is when I have heard it used most, but no reason why it can't be used for a women. Unless of course you have been told off on the quiet for calling me a cunt and that is why you have posted this... FYI Cunt doesn't bother me, words cannot offend you unless you let them :-)	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 02:07 PM

3	"Claims that women scientists suffer discrimination in these arenas rest on a set of studies undergirding policies and programs aimed at remediation. More recent and robust empiricism, however, fails to support assertions of discrimination in these domains." Mainly I disagree with your argument that paying for other people's children would help both men and women (Equally, as you imply). Women would have even less incentive to stay married, or even get married, for that matter, as they could be almost completely supported by the government. I don't care if you think you are some miraculous cancer researcher. Odds are that you work in some shit lab with no windows.

Seriously, some of the men on here make a feminists troll job so much easier! Thankfully they are outweighed by the men on here who are adept in reading comprehension, and don't hate women, but they still taint every other man on here. ^ is a tongue-in-cheek comment, I don't actually want my own thread, just venting a little. :-) I think i…	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 01:38 PM

More recent and robust empiricism, however, fails to support assertions of discrimination in these domains." Once again, you want ME to pay for your fucking shit. It's so very ironic that Feminists, who proclaim themselves as independent so frequently want other people to support them and their responsibilities. I do not care about your child, and I do not want to support your child so that you can live a consequence-free life. What are you on about? FYI I am an financially and emotionally independent.

Mind you, some women-hating men on here follow me about too downvoting what I say,whether they agree or not or trying purposely to disagree with it. So I get it from both sides. Meh.

More recent and robust empiricism, however, fails to support assertions of discrimination in these domains." There is nothing we can do about sex based ability differences. Gender choices go across the entire culture, so it is unlikely that government intrusion would be effective; all we can do is collectively fight the enforcement of gender roles. Oddly enough I made a similiarly-related comment on another thread, but not nearly so eloquently :-). Which just leaves babies.

(judge debates whether or not to send a girl found guilty of 16 counts, including kicking an officer in the face, should have to do time) Physiology does matter, denying it is hypocritical. Both feminists and MRAs do it for different reasons. It has NOTHING to do with equality and everything to do with common sense, the latter seems to be lacking on here. It is any excuse to show a woman may or may not be having a better treatment than a man, it is doing EXACTLY what the MRAs in here moan about the feminists doing!! The sooner someone grows a fucking brain and realises that, the better.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 09:37 AM

The title is Understanding current causes of women's underrepresentation in science They reviewed and reprised research from the last 20 yrs looking at why women were under-represented in science, and whether they were still subject to the same discrimination as they have done in the past.

This will inflame some here, but making such a comparison is a moot point, men cannot get pregnant.

Yes I noticed that too. Only reference I found was in the report abstract saying "On 18 August 2010, Oyang 70, a South Korean fishing vessel fishing in New Zealand" so the Sajo Oyang Corporation is South Korean, but doesn't say about any other boat companies.	/r/MensRights	13/08/11 01:33 AM

2	The conditions suffered by 2000 mainly Indonesian men on 27 vessels were judged "appalling", with gruesome accounts of extreme physical violence and verbal abuse. I have just been hunting for that too but couldn't find the whole report in its entirety, but it might be ahead of publication, not sure how business schools publish their papers/reports. I did find this which has links to quite a few other articles on it.

Sad to see people so judgemental again, written off as another woman getting a free pass. She is 17 years old, and in need of help, and so is her baby. It is good to see the judge take some time to decide what course of action to take with her, rather than send her straight to jail.

2	Internet Porn Shown to Decrease Incidence of Rape. Does this not rather imply that men cannot control their sexual urges unless they can watch pornography? Unless I am missing something, most men are pretty decent individuals who find the idea of rape abhorrent.

A child is entitled to know who is father is, even if he is a total asshole.

If it was a shit-hole they may have investigated further, but didn't because they went on what they saw and ignored the signs.
