| 6 | Why we criticize (and yes, even attack) feminismEvery so often, we get the question from well-meaning feminists: "Why do you oppose us?" "Why do you attack us?" "We care about men too, so we should work together!" Perhaps answers to these questions might best be found by first looking closer to home, i.e. by the feminists asking those questions putting the same questions to other feminists: An answer to the question "Why do you oppose us?", for instance, could be found by asking the feminist group Object Now why it re-posted the following fro… | /r/MensRights | 29/12/18 11:39 AM |

| 1 | Anyone think that political correctness in films has gone too farHey if it works it works, my problem is the vast majority of cases where is obviously doesn’t. Just to be clear, I think we basically agree on this - e.g. the BBC dramas that I mentioned (where it doesn't). In the case of doctor who my problem with it is the statement they are making is obviously because of the current push for female protagonists ...

| 4 | Anyone think that political correctness in films has gone too farThe fact is, in media, you should be allowed to be as sexist as you want to be, because it is fictional media. But by the same token, surely you must allowed to be as politically correct / intersectional /progressive / etc. as you want to be, because it is fictional media? I tend to think that audiences can often quite easily tell when a storyline or characterisation has been foisted onto the story because it leaves a confusing and distracting irritant at the back of one's mind.

| 1 | Labour MP Lisa Nandy backs male-female job-share for leadershipMPs and parliamentary candidates Well, yes, I can see why the idea would appeal to those people. But when I saw Melissa Benn talk about this idea, it seemed very clear indeed that this was not a cynical ploy on her part - this was a serious attempt to address and solve what she considered to be a serious problem in the world - i.e. less than 50% of women being MPs. I'm never quite sure which is worse - someone who sincerely believes that job-sharing is a viable plan (as I believe she does) or so… | /r/MensRights | 24/09/18 08:29 PM |

| 2 | How do you feel about the term "mansplaining"?You know how in many a relationship there's that one thing that one partner did - either actually or allegedly - which the other one never, ever allows them to forget? The kind where there can be an argument about one thing and all of a sudden one partner (in my experience almost always the woman) out of nowhere dredges up that time when he got pissed and passed out on the sofa and she was left standing in the rain at the train station not able to raise him on his mobile because he though he'd s… | /r/MensRights | 23/09/18 08:51 PM |

It's not really a quest… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/17 06:11 PM |
| 1 | Men, women, accidental pregnancy and what happens next - a scenario and six questions.It's not a foreign concept to me - I'm simply pointing out that on the one hand you stated he was relieved that you chose to terminate, but on the other he would have not just agreed to do his part but would have done so "willingly". "Willingly" is at odds with your first statement - that's all. There's no shortage of men who respect a woman's right to choose and also step up for unplanned children. That's actually the norm. There are many that would argue that is not the case. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/17 06:08 PM |
| 2 | Men, women, accidental pregnancy and what happens next - a scenario and six questions.are you american? No. But you know, they have black and other minority ethnic groups in countries outside of the US so I fail to see what point you're raising. ... are they the first of their family to go to college? are they from the south or NYC? Do you remember at school when people do math and the problems make references to how fast a train is going to Chicago or how many apples each person in a group can have if there are y apples and x people etc.? Well, this is like that. Annie, Barbara,… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/17 06:05 PM |
| 1 | Would anyone here be willing to have a civil conversation with me about men's/women's rights issues?1st wave I believe was essential to the progress of this country Yes, but how? What particular progress was made by these feminists that could not have been made without their intervention? And progress suggests a move forward - so do you mean this culturally, economically, or what? second wave did some bad things For example ...? ... but still advanced equal rights. Well this is certainly a claim they make for themselves. But a Shaman who performs a rain dance claims that it was his magic that … | /r/MensRights | 17/06/17 06:00 PM |
| 1 | Men, women, accidental pregnancy and what happens next - a scenario and six questions.I'm not from the US, that's true. But that has nothing to do with the focus of this hypothetical which is explicitly on the financial issue. Annie, Barbara, Chad and Don are not real people - they are the A, B. C, D labels for different kinds of variable. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/17 05:56 PM |
| 1 | Men, women, accidental pregnancy and what happens next - a scenario and six questions.Too many variables to consider here. Not really - there are only three: Financial status now Financial prospects / status in the future Wanting / not wanting the child He left the decision totally up to me and was relieved when I chose to terminate the pregnancy ... I'm completely certain he'd agree and willingly do his part. With respect, one of those statements does not seem to fit with the other. I also note that you said: We had also only been together for about 4 months, way too early to be… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/17 05:55 PM |
| 1 | Men, women, accidental pregnancy and what happens next - a scenario and six questions.I'm going to tell you that both Annie and Barbara would have an abortion. If they were real people, I'm sure you're right. But the actual question asked is: Who is more likely to want to keep the child? In other words, who would you think might keep the child (as opposed to abort or adopt) - not what they would actually do. The status of the men in question doesn't really matter much. This is by far the most popular answer - however, it doesn't seem to be borne out by what women (apparently) typ… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/17 05:50 PM |
| 1 | Men, women, accidental pregnancy and what happens next - a scenario and six questions.Lol. I'm always immediately suspicious of anyone who begins a response with "Lol." It strongly suggests that the writer has been made uncomfortable by something in the message. When I experienced an unplanned pregnancy as an unemployed student at 23, my partner's income, or whether or not he wanted kids mattered exactly zero in my decision making. What was your decision? You don't actually say. This scenario is pushing some sort of agenda that doesn't translate to real life, ... A hypothesis isn… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/17 05:46 PM |
| 1 | Men, women, accidental pregnancy and what happens next - a scenario and six questions.Thanks for your answers - I'm a bit confused by your answer to number 1 though. Barbara wants to do right by Don There is no mention of this in the scenario. If you believe that Don is Barbara's boss, then you have misunderstood my intention. I'm not sure I agree with you on your answer to Q2 - but it's your opinion. This thought experiment isn't as perfect as you think. I don't think I ever made claims for it to be perfect(!) The type of person to get pregnant by a sweet, financially unsuccessf… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/17 05:40 PM |
| 1 | Men, women, accidental pregnancy and what happens next - a scenario and six questions.One, what is "contraceptive abortion"? It's not that difficult a concept - it simply means that abortion is used as a last-ditch form of contraception (when all other forms have failed). The phrase is used to distinguish abortion of, say, a severely disabled foetus, a foetus that results from incest or rape, or an abortion that has to be carried out to save the life of the mother. Contraceptive abortion just means - the abortion of a foetus/child that is otherwise progressing normally and is not… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/17 05:34 PM |
| 1 | Men, women, accidental pregnancy and what happens next - a scenario and six questions.I don't think this is accurate at all! Then with respect, how do you explain that the two most common reasons for contraceptive abortion are: economic / financial reasons Not ready (e.g. because feel themselves too young, or too early in their career, or because they are finishing a university degree etc.) That strongly suggests that economic reasons play a significant role in a woman's decision to terminate or not. That in turn could suggest that there is an argument for Legal Paternal Surrende… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/17 05:29 PM |
| 2 | Men, women, accidental pregnancy and what happens next - a scenario and six questions.As college graduates with white collar jobs they are both likely to abort unless they are black/religious. Religion I get, obviously, but why "black"? Why wouldn't a black 23 year-old college graduate in a white collar job be just as likely as other ethnicities to terminate? Need geographical/religious , race/ethnicity and social class info Whatever typical 23 year-old college graduates in white collar jobs are is the info. you want. I would never have an out of wedlock child under any circumsta… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/17 02:54 PM |
| 1 | Men, women, accidental pregnancy and what happens next - a scenario and six questions.Whether or not to have an abortion / wanting to have a child, etc. has more to do with ones childhood experience, religion, biology, personal preferences, etc. than it has to do with education or money. What makes you so sure of that? Here's one survey's results of the five most common reasons for choosing contraceptive abortion: Reason #1 Too Young/Immature. Not ready for responsibility (32% of total) Reason #2 Economic (30% of total) Reason #3 To avoid adjusting life (16% of total) Reason #4 P… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/17 02:19 PM |
| -6 | When I ask women why girls get much better grades in school, they usually say they are just naturally better at studying etc. When I ask women why men earn more than women, it's discrimination.You saw I wrote this then I take it? The obvious answer to that is life choices of women differing from those of men | /r/MensRights | 17/06/17 01:57 PM |
