2	How is this even consent and why do we still have to register for the draft? Laughs in Vietnam	/r/MensRights	06/08/19 07:28 PM
14	How is this even consent and why do we still have to register for the draft? Also can't open their own business. I'm not sure this is true. In the novel, Our Hero's father was an exceptionally wealthy business owner, and had no use at all for citizenship. Frankly, I'd love to see a system like it in real life. It might not work as well as I think it would, but it might be a good place to start.	/r/MensRights	06/08/19 07:27 PM
6	Should the Women who Made Knowingly False Statement in the Kavanaugh Hearing Be Criminally Prosecuted? Judy Munro-Leighton - She says that she lied about writing the anonymous letter. Does that not count? It's not quite as serious about an actual false accusation, but trying to gin up an accusation by attaching your name to it is bad form, and also a false statement.	/r/MensRights	08/11/18 01:29 AM
1	A Florida cop didn’t rush to a shooting call. She said it didn’t meet her standards (case of a man who was accidentally shot to death by his girlfriend in her home) I don't like them. They put too much destructive power in the hands of someone who hasn't (necessarily) had any training in how to handle that power. They make it possible to conceal that power, and deploy it with little to no warning, with potentially fatal results. I shoot bows. Even if they were as destructive as guns, (which they aren't) you need at least a little training if you want to kill someone, or destroy their property. And it's very hard to sneak a bow into a place. I love bladed we…	/r/MensRights	01/08/18 03:46 PM

1	A Florida cop didn’t rush to a shooting call. She said it didn’t meet her standards (case of a man who was accidentally shot to death by his girlfriend in her home) I would wish for wrongdoing/evil out of existance. I'd worry about that. Magic is tricky, and anything that touches on "free will" makes me nervous. Guns are just a thing. It would suck to remove a lot of things that are fun, but it is, at least to me, worth it. It would be the same as wishing out cars instead of irresponsibility/bad driving skills. Close. Cars provide a critical function, and their purpouse is to move things or people from one place to another. Doing things to make them safer d…	/r/MensRights	30/07/18 05:47 PM
11	A Florida cop didn’t rush to a shooting call. She said it didn’t meet her standards (case of a man who was accidentally shot to death by his girlfriend in her home) Appreciate the thought, but I don't own guns, I don't like guns, and if I could wave a magic wand and wish them out of existence, I'd do it in a heartbeat. I am, however, aware that they are a thing that exists, and that there are safe and unsafe ways to handle them. And I am aware that guns are not themselves evil, or even particularly dangerous, provided they are used safely. I also object to attempts to legislate away the second amendment under the guise of "gun control." If we want to remove…	/r/MensRights	30/07/18 05:24 PM
16	A Florida cop didn’t rush to a shooting call. She said it didn’t meet her standards (case of a man who was accidentally shot to death by his girlfriend in her home) Anyone who has a gun or has learnt how to deal with one doesn't pass a gun to anyone pointing anywhere but down. Nor do they pass a loaded gun to someone, nor do they store a gun loaded. Nor do they secure guns "in the top drawer" to protect their kids. There wasn't just a single case of poor weapon handling, there were many. Nothing suspicious about idiots with guns being idiots with guns.	/r/MensRights	30/07/18 04:57 PM
1	Extensive Research: Women Initiate Domestic Violence More Than Men, Men Under-Report It. I think if you bother to read you may discover the magic of hyperlinks to sources. I think you won't.

3	Sydney barber who refused to cut girls hair settles discrimination case \| Women-only gyms are legally protected, but a male barber who isn't trained to cut women's hair cannot refuse a demand that he do so. IMO, he should have warned the lady "I don't do women's hair. If you want it hacked off, I can do that." And then cut her hair. I mean, women's hair cuts just the same as men's hair. It's just that women usually want more complicated procedures. That's what he's not qualified to do. He can do a buzz cut on anyone with hair.	/r/MensRights	11/07/18 08:49 PM
1	UK Campaign to Prevent Male Suicide Ever spoken to people who failed to commit suicide? Overwhelmingly, they don't try again. The attempt was a global minimum for them, and even something as simple as having to climb over a rail before they can jump is enough to push them back just once, and they don't get that low again. Others are in a situation that keeps them low, and they don't want to die, they want out of the situation. They see dying as the only way out. One lady who survived jumping from a bridge claims that the very inst…	/r/MensRights	26/03/18 06:11 PM
2	UK Campaign to Prevent Male Suicide In theory, yes. In practice, suicide prevention is reasonably well understood. Almost no-one actually wants to kill themselves. They want a solution to their problems, or at least to know that a solution exists, even if they can't get to it. Sometimes all they need is for someone to recognize that they have a problem. Shit like this is invaluable.	/r/MensRights	26/03/18 05:40 PM

5	Huffington Post writers are chosen mostly based on their gender and race. Isn't that the definition of racism? The last time I checked, it was something like that. Maybe born female, identifying as trans-man, refusing to transition because he felt that the trans-was part of his identity. Or transitioned, and insisted on being a trans-man, instead of just a man. I just recall thinking it was stupid, and that they were just a man or woman with a desire to be "special."	/r/MensRights	15/03/18 08:05 PM
12	Huffington Post writers are chosen mostly based on their gender and race. Isn't that the definition of racism? Nobody identifies as trans, that doesn't make sense. I've seen people who do. Mostly the kind of people that get mocked over at TiA, but they exist. Sane people don't identify as trans.	/r/MensRights	15/03/18 07:57 PM
3	What I found today on Twitter That's true for the most part. But if a normally manly-man wants to sit down and have a good cry, because it's just gotten to be too much for him, he cannot, as a social matter, do it. He can't turn to his wife or girlfriend in his moment of vulnerability, and expect to be supported. Instead he will be punished. Note, however, that this isn't a universal truth. Plenty of women can and will support their men, eagerly, even. Frankly, this should be considered a filter for who you want to have a re…	/r/MensRights	01/03/18 07:08 PM
0	What I found today on Twitter That's a poor argument. Some may find the strength to carry on. Some may find other outlets. Some may simply not suffer from it the same way others do. Even for someone desperate for help or attention or what have you, taking up a weapon and killing indiscriminately is something not done lightly.	/r/MensRights	01/03/18 07:03 PM
1	#MenAreAwesome Birth rates are not a concern for a football team, pizza place, or other random groups the way it is for a typical society, I can't remember the last time anyone in any typical society was concerned about birth rates, with the exception of people upset that Mexicans were breeding faster then good, honest white americans. Concern for children seems to be about the children that exist, not the children that might.

I would argue that the times changed because of the laws. I'm not as familiar with the details of the Women's Liberation Movement as I am with the Civil Rights movement, (which focused on the racial minorities) but the cases are similar. Citation needed on the assumption that women couldn't or wouldn't get hired on the basis of being a female.

I would counter that strong-arming companies is the only option. Did you note a rush of businesses opening their doors to black customers? Or did they have to be compelled to do so by law? Ultimately, if they overlook talent because genitalia, it's their loss, someone who isn't will take them in instead. Which explains why it was so hard for women to get into the workforce.

2	Female quota sees Australian state remove it's male paid public board positions and filling half of all jobs with women only regardless of ability, skill or experience over a male applicant They will overlook essential safety qualifications and basic strength if it means they hire a female over male. This is one of the most appallingly wrong uses of it. Nonoe should be hired for a job if they aren't qualified, and under no circumstances whatever should anyone be hired if they can't even pass basic safety. Bear in mind, I'm not saying that quotas are good, I'm saying that in some cases the used to be a necessary evil.	/r/MensRights	28/03/17 09:05 PM

Good talk, though. EDIT: Sounds like your company is doing shit wrong. "Illegally practicing affirmative action" sounds to me like "illegal discrimination," but I doubt you'd get any traction in court. I maintain that sometimes, one has to use a shitty tool to get a job done. One should bear in mind, however, that the tool is just a tool, and it is not the job.

No, I'm aware there are problems. I'm just suggesting that A) the problems can be mitigated by intelligent use of the tool, and B) it used to be a necessary evil, and it might still be. I'm always open to C) which is "a better option," and D) us not needing it anymore. The idea of "women in the workplace" isn't novel anymore, it's a given.

There used to be, and in some cases still are, places or at least people that simply will not hire a woman, no matter her qualifications.

The theory is that women won't get hired, regardless of their qualifications. I've seen it done, at least once. I think that today it's a tired mechanism, and in twenty years, will be outdated, verging on useless.
