“Happens way too much” and “not handled as well as they should” are weasel words. That stuff will literal always be true of anything bad in the world. That’s how we set ideals to strive for. Way too many infants are killed. Statistically, women are more likely to do this. Too often, they get off with slaps on the wrist. Therefore, an infant in the forest is safer with a bear than her mother. (I don’t really think it’s worth the trouble to have these arguments. People largely aren’t forming their…

Wait 10-20% of bear sightings involve an attack? I honestly have a hard time believing it’s that high. Everyone I know has seen bears, I’ve never met an attack victim. Is there some context I’m missing?

A couple of us tried getting r/MRGay off the ground years ago, let me know if anyone wants it. Yeah though op, I have a weird relationship with the idea of identity, but I am a man who sleeps with men. I used to sleep with women too, but it’s been a while. I don’t talk about it much and most people who know me wouldn’t guess (in fact I’ve never had somebody guess). Gay men are not exempt from male disposability, or the shiny coat of paint feminist theory loaned it.

I think it’s just looking for maximum victims to use. A single sentence about men in case that gets any extra sympathy not roused by the female victims showcased. I don’t think they were trying to ward off complaints because I don’t think they were concerned about complaints about blindness to male victimization.

The multitude of similar articles I’ve read or indeed that some of my lecturers have published just showcases that currently this is a relevant archaeological problem or else those in the field wouldn’t be discussing it from an academic perspective. that just means it’s a popular topic. “a lot of people are hunting witches these days, that means witchcraft is a relevant problem.” you are watching memes (in the non-internet sense) at play, ideology spreading

I’m not anti-equal rights. Very firmly pro-, in fact. I just don’t think I live in a patriarchy. I reject feminism, both as a sociopolitical faction, and as an academic lens (I think “feminist critique” is largely dishonest, manipulative, and harmful). I believe the feminist historical narrative is misleading, at times to the point of slander. In short, the feminist movement holds no monopoly on the concept of gender equality.

Consider the name deeper--look at the suffix. Feminism started as a Marxism offshoot that took Marx's model of class oppression and applied it to gender. It had a lot of trouble winning hearts and minds by arguing that men as a group oppress women as a group, but it gained traction with two big PR victories: first, as I said in another comment here, by using historical revisionism to appropriate public goodwill towards past achievements by women's rights activists (notably suffrage); second, by …

To repeat what I said elsewhere: Also, maybe they don't want to suck dick, but not as much as they don't want to bite a dick off. I think given the choice, a lot of people would prefer sucking an unwanted dick to biting it off.

If someone is an expert about things having to do with A, and that person forms the expert opinion that A is true, that is sufficient reason to believe A. So in other words, A is an authority on a particular topic A says something about that topic A is probably correct Yes?

Also, this meme is way too abstract and general. Good memes usually focus on a specific case, then either generalize from there, or lets the reader generalize on their own. For example, something about Little Bobby getting suspended for playing Spiderman, maybe a cartoon of a pint-sized Spiderman sitting in the principle;s office looking dejected. Maybe the quote, "Let boys dream." That would be much more effective, imo. Make it :)

They only count up to 5 incidents of being attacked from any one person. They do this because a small number of women report being attacked a huge number of times (like getting hit each day in a violent relationship), skewing the stats and making it look like women are getting ambushed left and right.

Lets take an analogy. If there was a rise in the crime rate in my little English village, we wouldn't just ignore it because the crime rate was nothing compared to that of Mexico City. We would investigate and attempt to solve the issue. No, we're talking about two demographics in the same region; this isn't comparable to a "people are dying in Africa" argument.

Feminism started as insane radical Marxists. They retroactively claimed earlier women's rights activists (like suffragettes) and re-dubbed them "first wave feminists."

You're already deeply versed in SJW language, and you already know the specific wording SRSers use to smear this sub; "overlap between men's rights and white rights" is a regular SRS/AMR mantra, and it's unlikely that someone as new to reddit as you claim to be would be using that particular phrase, referencing the /r/whiterights sub.

Real rape victims might need to be the ones to bring this reality to light because it's they who are hurt most by it. No. They are hurt by it, but not as much as the falsely accused. If I gave you the choice between being raped, and being convicted of rape, which would you choose?

Fine, let's debate it out. You presented a possible scenario as a counterexample to 5th Law's reasoning. For shits and giggles I explained why your scenario was impossible.

Assume, on average, white people get sentenced to 10 years for a crime. A black increase of 60% makes that 16 years. Now, assume women get sentenced to 1 year for the same crime. A male increase of 63% makes that 1.63 years. So, while there is a greater percentage increase, overall the years served are still lower! Are these numbers possible?

I'm not inclined to argue with someone calling feminists a problem, but this is how I would brush up your thoughts: The problem with rape culture is that we have demonized the wrong gender and presented the wrong gender as victims. I would refine that to to: The problem with rape culture is that we have demonized one gender and presented the other gender as victims. And then to carve it down, brush it up, succinct-ify it: The problem is that we've treated this as a gendered issue.

I like barbershops because there are no women; more accurately, because there are only men. There is a certain atmosphere to a setting full of men that is lost with the inclusion of women (and, although there is no way for me to experience it, I'm sure the same is probably true of women-only settings). That atmosphere has value. It facilitates male bonding in a way that can only happen in the absence of women.

...and turning men into threatening bogeymen for children as well as adult females and other men. I mean that it's not just women and children who are taught to distrust men. Men are taught to distrust other men. You can see this in how willing so many men are to disparage men as a group (usually considering themselves one of the rare exceptions, but sometimes berating themselves as horrible males as well).

One mild correction: false rape accusations are against the law in America. For example, lying on a police statement is punishable by a $50,000 fine and up to ten years in prison in my state; also, there's obstruction of justice, lying under oath, etc. The problem is that they're not enforcing the laws that are already in place. If they wanted to, they could bury false accusers.

If you're willing to accept a conversational definition of "rape" that includes "rape by envelopment," then I am presenting evidence that, in America, in 2010 (the latest year for which we have this information), 8 men were raped by women for every 10 women who were raped …

"Genital mutilation" is the term used for female circumcision, often abbreviated to "FGM." Some anti-circumcision folks (like me) who use "MGM" are simply insisting on equivalent terminology when talking about doing it to boy or girl babies; as long as people stuck with "female circumcision" rather than "FGM," I wouldn't have a problem with just saying "male circumcision." And speaking of babies, "baby killing" is an attention-grabbing but technically incorrect description of abortion, because t…

Ok, let's stick with 5 men and 5 women for simplicity's sake. Let's say 1 guy had sex with 5 virgin women. So on the men's scorecard would be 5 checks, and on the women's would also be 5, one from each virgin. That gives you total numbers. Then, for average partners per person, Men: divide the number of partners (5) by the number of men (5) 5/5=1 that's an average of one partner per man. Women: divide the number of partners (5) by the number of women (5) 5/5=1 that's an average of one partner pe…

Because every time a woman sleeps with a man, a man is also sleeping with a woman. If you have two big scorecards, and every time an American man sleeps with a new woman for the first time, you put a check on card 1, and card 2 gets a check every time an American woman sleeps with a new man for the first time. Now, think about it, the two cards would have to have the same number of checks. Every time some barhog went home with a ruddy-faced alcoholic guy, both cards would get a check. Unless som…

Don't females, on average, have a lot more sexual partners in their life than men? This is statistically impossible. Well, unless there are a lot of very promiscuous lesbians being added in (and considering the culture of promiscuity in a lot of gay men's scenes, I doubt counting same-sex partnerings would tip the scales the other way).

That's all well and good, but consider the feminist response to a lot of MRA issues: MRA: "Men are overwhelmingly the victims of violent crime." Feminist: "But who is committing all that crime? Men. This is not an instance of oppression." You see this as a response to a lot of other issues too, and it all adds up to the big one: "Men dominate political offices, most judges are men, and the corporate world is run by men; men are in charge of society, so nothing bad that happens to men can be cons…

A woman who sleeps around with other women isn't considered a slut. A "slut" is perceived as bring damaged or degraded by each successive male partner. You can see this in a lot of long-form erotic fiction, where the female protagonist descends into debauchery, becoming more depraved with each encounter with a male partner, but then at some point has a healing or rejuvenating experience with a female partner. I'm not sure I'm completely sold on this idea, but it is an interesting viewpoint to co…

i am more interested in neutralizing the government when it comes to rights, because that is what truly matters. Agreed.

Lets take this piece by piece. If the custodial parent makes enough to not be on welfare: no child support. In this scenario, do you think that the non-custodial parent should get ANY say in how a child is raised? I think no say whatsoever. And contact should be limited. If a parent is so disinterested in the welfare of their child that they cannot be bothered to contribute to the costs associated with raising said child they shouldn't get any say on how the child is raised and limited visits.

As a taxpayer, I don't want to see my money squandered just because someone is 'heroically' not accepting child support and then going on welfare or getting food stamps. If the custodial parent opts not to pursue child support and then receives government assistance, the government then pursues "child support" from the non-custodial parent to reimburse itself.

If the mother hadn't had enough money, the state would have taken child support from him to help offset whatever welfare the state gave her, food stamps or whatever. The fact that this didn't happen suggests that she didn't need child support--either that, or the father was just penniless and had nothing to pay. Either way, I'm not seeing anything to object to.

We can't be about men's rights in opposition to women's and/or feminism. "Women's rights" and "feminism" are two very different things that shouldn't be grouped together so casually. Very few people here oppose women's civil rights, but virtually all of us (something like 97% at our last poll) are antifeminists. There are very good reasons why the vast majority of people who care about men's rights oppose feminism. Feminism is no friend to men's rights.

FGM ranges from removing the clitoris and sewing the labia shut down to ceremoniously pricking the clitoris with a pin to draw a single drop of blood, leaving no scaring or permanent damage. Similarly, MGM ranges from a small snip of the prepuce, to slitting the underside of the shaft all the way into the urethra; as practiced in Western countries, MGM usually falls within a range of the middle ground, from removing part of the foreskin, to removing all of the foreskin and then some of the skin …

...this doesn't belong here... I disagree. In America, incarceration is a huge problem, and it's mostly a male problem. It's probably the biggest source of human rights violations American men face. I think anything prison-related belongs in a men's rights discussion, in the same way that I think anything related to homelessness or military casualties is a men's rights issue.

The MetaFilter thread was awful. Most of those people were completely talking out of their asses. "Unlike most other drugs that lower your inhibitions, with MDMA you're still you, just high." Apart from meaning absolutely nothing, the point that he tried and failed to make is still wrong. Get a roll going on Molly--or a brand with a good dose of uppers in the mix--and get a foot rub from a nice thin boy with soft lips, and then tell me that ecstasy won't lubricate some preference-bending.

"' Only the freedom of men can prevent the white race from decline and ruin,' declares one of the organization's publications." That? I mean, it's really not that bad for 1928. I mean, 90 years later it's taboo to talk about the interests of the white race, but 40-some-odd years before the Civil Rights Movement, it wasn't considered any worse to discuss the interests of whites than it was any other group of people.

All men could legally vote in America by 1888. For women, 1917 (many states sooner, but I'll count the latest one, to be fair). Non-wealthy men were given the right to vote on the grounds that they could be forced to fight and die for the country, so they should get a say in the way it was run. Registering for the draft was established and still remains a requirement for men to vote in America. 29 years later, women were given the right to vote.

To quote Dr. Warren Farrell: • prior to age nine, boys and girls commit suicide at equal rates. • from ages 10 to 14, boys’ rate is twice as high; • from 15 to 19, four times as high; and • from 20 to 24, more than five times as high. In brief, the more a boy is exposed to the pressures of the male role, the more he is likely to commit suicide.

Otherwise there would be no one to tell men what forms of masculinity are acceptable for a men's group or a men's space. Or a man in general. God forbid men decide for themselves. Fucking thank you. Feminists act like they're terrified of men doing something for themselves, without regard to how it benefits women, and without female control. They hate it.

Arg, you just beat me :P This actually isn't the one I was looking for (I think the most recent one includes gender of the attacker statistics), but this one will work. Some explanation. Firstly, the reason to use the 12-month statistics over the lifetime is because they're more accurate. The female victim statistics grow from the 12-month to the lifetime stats, while the opposite is true for the male victim stats. This indicates that the more time that passes, the more a female victim is likely…

In college, me and some friends had a basement boxing club. Nothing serious, but some girls liked to come down and watch. One time one of the girls wanted to go with me. I tried to talk her out of it, but she started talking about sexism and stuff. She was sturdy, former military, and a good deal older than me (I was 17, I think she was around 25), so I figured she could take it. Still, I restricted myself to love taps (about 30% force), and only hit her in the shoulder. She wanted to stop after…

There was a video posted just a few days ago with a woman who took one cop to the ground - after being handcuffed, and with two cops in supposed control of her. We can assume they're trained. She didn't take him to the ground, she dropped and he let her, following her to maintain control. When you're escorting someone, if they drop and you try to hold them up, you risk injury to their shoulder and your back. Far better to let them go to the ground and go down on top of them; that way you can hol…

According to my wife (a former rape crisis counselor), most rapes that involve drugging happen like this: "Hey, I've got some Rohypnol. Want to try some?" They just offer ruffies (or GHB or whatever) and the victim takes them willingly.

Cool, thanks for answering.

Or, you know, you could oppose the draft all together, like most feminists.

My big problem with this is that the most fundamental democratic right--the right to vote--is suspended for men if they don't register.

Have you ever met a feminist? A real feminist, not the kind of people who hang around Radfem Hub or anything like that. The narrative of feminism is that women are oppressed by a patriarchal society, the Patriarchy, but feminists don't approve of that.

My (main) problem with this campaign is that it spreads the already-hysterical fear of rape. Would you agree that all violent crimes, not just man-on-woman rape, should be avoided?

Your definition of "rape," which includes such things as asking again when they initially don't want to, people that "don't even know that they've been raped," and everyone that's ever had sex while drunk, is diluted to the point of near-meaningless.

The things that you buy and then give to your children are only a small part of the expenses involved in being a parent.

Well, for one thing, feminists claim that "feminism" is all about gender equality, so a "men's rights movement" is unnecessary. As far as I know, no MRA has made the same claim about the MRM. Also, this is why MRA's point out that feminism isn't actually about equality.

You know, you don't really know us, so I'll let clue you in. Let this be a lesson about applying general ideas to specific people. He seemed like a good guy. Born into money, lots of social status. But after his father lost a battle with cancer, he devolved into an alcoholic, psychotic fuck. I used to know them, I literally pulled him off of her and restrained him one night when he was drunk and punching the shit out of her. She tried to make it work through a year of this shit getting progressi…

Well, I agreed with you right up until here, but now I'll have to change that to a sincere fuck you. I love my wife, and I love my oldest daughter (even though her biological father was an abusive shitstain), and fuck you very much for implying that there's something wrong with my family.

Wow, there's a lot of misinformation there. No wonder they couldn't provide citations.

I'm not really surprised. American psychology is fairly feminist. The APA houses the ominously-named Division 51, which is the Society for the Psychological Study of Men and Masculinity (or SPSMM). Doesn't sound bad so far, but read these two points from their five-item mission statement: • Endeavors to erode constraining definitions of masculinity which historically have inhibited men’s development, their capacity to form meaningful relationships, and have contributed to the oppression of other…

I don't like the media's constant barrage negative fathers, or the way they always portray single mothers as being single because the scumbag father left (and never because the mother got a no-fault divorce and won full custody). ...but this clip was a fucking tearjerker, and I'm not sure it provides an ideal platform for discussing these issues.

So I've read through your posts and comments, and I'd just like to say two things. Every argument made by your husband (that you've mentioned) is also made to defend FGM (in fact, it is often FGM-victimized women who want it performed on their daughters). Also, this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Harvey_Kellogg You're a good mom. You have my support.

Excellent stuff, good find. Watched, Favoritted, Facebooked. My only quibble (and it's a minor one), I didn't really like the part about the hypothetical adman. Challenging a man's sexual or seductive prowess to make an unrelated point, it just doesn't sit well with me. Like I said though, it was a small thing, and it didn't spoil my appreciation for his work.

I spotted that too. I don't even care about golf and I wish Tiger Woods would leave the public consciousness forever, but this hypocrisy isn't cool.

I'm no fan of the Republican Party, but I don't think you're really seeing the full scope of this issue.

Well, no luck there, without modding. You don't have any camera? Not even a webcam or anything? You said you have some friends that you trust--surely one of them has a camera, or at least a phone with a camera or something?

I'm going to take you at your word, just in case you're telling the truth. We get a lot of trolls in here, so I hope you understand the doubt. If this is your first exposure to the men's rights movement (and not just this subreddit), I'll be happy to explain/discuss/debate our views, and clear up any of the common misconceptions people have about us. For starters, we, as a group, don't "hate women." There are a few rogue misogynists around, but they are in the wide minority, and are generally di…

This, this so much. Although be prepared for the white knight shitstorm you'd encounter in a general interest subreddit. Actually, it could get voted high enough over there that your girlfriend might see it. Just something to consider.

I hear where you're coming from, I really do, but I think a more productive route would be to start helping men in that situation. What would happen, realistically, if people stopped helping women when they were getting sexually harassed or assaulted? Feminists would cry about "rape culture," and push new legislation saying that you have to help women or else your ass is going to jail--actually, I'm pretty sure this is already covered by other laws, but you can bet they'd make the punishments ha…

Well, not in the clinical sense. I wasn't really referring to individuals as insane, I was more talking about the widespread insanity that supports mutilating the genitals of newborns. I consider it a lesser form of the same type of group insanity that can lead ordinary, mentally healthy people to look at black slaves, have conversatims with them, and still consider them less than human. Maybe we could call it something like 'cultural insanity,' or 'a disorder of the group consciousness.'

if I saw one getting attacked I would walk away and do nothing. This is equivalent to a black American saying they want to enslave white people. I mean, issues of gender and politics aside, we have to retain our humanity. Also, I think it might be against the law to see somebody getting assaulted and not at least call the cops.

It was split up by demographics, but I can't access it anymore. IIRC the older the demographic, the stronger the support for circumcision, and republicans were much more heavily pro- than democrats or independents. Also, men had a good lead on women in voting pro-. I don't think there was any noticeable split by income.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erin_Pizzey http://www.now.org/nnt/03-97/father.html So yeah, I feel justified in saying that mainstream feminism is often hostile, and frequently dismissive of men's issues. They're always free to help a men's rights cause and prove me wrong. Or, as GWW said: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQWoNhrY_fM&feature=youtube_gdata_player
