1	Rape culture The issue here may be that you do not feel that is rape. And I wouldn't say it always is. Yeah, women choose to drink, and they did "consent". But the reason we ban rape is its effect on the victim (and moral issues). If those effects are present only 1 in 10 cases, then that is seriously bad. It might be rape lite, but it's still rape. Suppose it's true that rape is banned wholly because of its effects on the victim. This does not mean that a different action which even sometimes has similar co…	/r/MensRights	06/05/12 10:50 PM
–	Just a thing I'd like to say about feminists coming to this subreddit and how they're received In other words: "If men have actual issues, how will there be any left over for women to have?!"	/r/MensRights	01/05/12 02:48 AM

–	Idaho Supreme Court has ordered a 3-year-old girl in state custody be delivered to her father, a Mexican citizen who has never met her and is legally barred from entering the US Would it be much better to be able to avoid it? Of course. And of course separating children from caretakers shouldn't be casually done for little purpose. But it's absurd to consider an ephemeral turbulence as remotely comparable to the need to return the child to her father. Children are resilient, not china dolls constantly in danger of being shattered.	/r/MensRights	01/05/12 01:15 AM
–	I just learned that as a man, it's privileged to question a woman about her feminist beliefs. That whole paragraph quite literally boils down to "Leave me alone or I'll cry!" And the unsaid part is "And you'll look like a dick for making me cry, no matter how right you might be..."	/r/MensRights	01/05/12 01:00 AM
–	Idaho Supreme Court has ordered a 3-year-old girl in state custody be delivered to her father, a Mexican citizen who has never met her and is legally barred from entering the US I probably know better for not having a three-year-old. Possibly being sad and missing your foster parents for a few days is not "suffering terribly". You'd either have to have judgment clouded by personal attachment and/or think that children are emotional minefields, ready to go off and be damaged for life at the slightest nudge to think otherwise. And you're missing "being with her biological father" from the catalog of the child's own potential interests.	/r/MensRights	28/04/12 06:31 PM
2	Study: "ARE FEMINISTS MAN HATERS? FEMINISTS’ AND NONFEMINISTS’ ATTITUDES TOWARD MEN" (x-post from r/feminism) Additionally, a big problem with the sort of exclusion they did is not just that they defined feminism the way they liked, but also that they very well may have sliced and diced people into feminists/not feminists until they got numbers they liked. And this isn't a slight on feminists in particular-- this almost seems to be the modus operandi of the social sciences in general.	/r/MensRights	28/04/12 02:51 AM
–	Idaho Supreme Court has ordered a 3-year-old girl in state custody be delivered to her father, a Mexican citizen who has never met her and is legally barred from entering the US Terrible harm? How is it a terrible tragedy to have a change of guardianship at three years old? You mean that she might be sad for a few days in order to spend the rest of her childhood with her actual father? How utterly hyperbolic. That's like avoiding vaccinating a child because you don't want them to go through the terrible harm of being stuck with a needle. What about the terrible harm to a father who can't spend time with or foster his own child?	/r/MensRights	28/04/12 01:32 AM
–	How It Works - the collection For "Bias in the System", here's a possibility: Black men get harsher sentences than white men: Blatant racism! Men get harsher sentences than women: Nothing to see here...	/r/MensRights	24/04/12 04:05 AM
5	Female genital tidying is racist and evil, no mention of the far more widespread male version I think the use of "tidying" here is meant to be an ironic comment on how circumcision of men is often thought of.	/r/MensRights	22/04/12 07:01 PM
