We care about men's role as providers for their family, being productive workers for their employers, and support for the community as taxpayers. Makes me think of the Warren Farrell quote, "women are human beings, men are human doings". People care more about the male gender role than the individuals performing it. The gains in women’s longevity give hope for similar advances for men,” said Ron Henry, President of Men’s Health Network. “Too many American men are still dying too young and that h…

Nothing new under the sun, this has been going on for decades - Boys are stupid, throw rocks at them! controversy (and nothing changes). Boys are stupid, throw rocks at them!" is a slogan on a T-shirt by Florida clothing company David and Goliath. In 2003, the shirt became the subject of a campaign by radio-host and men's rights activist Glenn Sacks on the grounds of misandry and the incitement of violence against men and boys. This raised national attention and led to the removal of the shirts …

Rape definitions in international laws that only include penile insertion have often meant male victims are not treated seriously or ignored. As the report noted, a recent ICC court case claimed that forced circumcisions and penile amputations were not sexual violence, but rather "other inhuman acts" motivated by ethnic hatred rather than gendered. The legacy of Catharine A. MacKinnon continues. Mackinnon is an extremely influential American radical Marxist feminist legal scholar. In 1992 she wa…

Do you have any thoughts about the large sex differential in utilization of means-tested welfare programs? I'd say that having to pay child support plays a role here. Means-tested welfare programs typically use assessed taxable income to determine eligibility. Child support payments are not tax deductions, likewise child support receipts don't count as income - Are child support payments or alimony payments considered taxable income?. Child Support - No. Child support payments are not subject to…

There are important differences between the American left and the UK/EU/AU left that clearly illustrate the lack of appeal to men. Feminism in those other countries is allowed to help men too. Definitely not in Australia. There are curriculums on Masculinity Studies, Men's Rights organizations, and charities aimed at helping men. None that I'm aware of that are aimed at actually helping men. None of this is very controversial there. Advocating for men in Australia is inherently controversial and…

This made me think of something said by Karen Straughn almost 10 years ago So what you're saying is that you, a commenter using a username on an internet forum are the true feminist, and the feminists actually responsible for changing the laws, writing the academic theory, teaching the courses, influencing the public policies, and the massive, well-funded feminist organizations with thousands and thousands of members all of whom call themselves feminists... they are not "real feminists".

I'd say that the beauty industry is the source of the disparity (or the majority of). The argument flips from a comparison of National Institute of Health (NIH) funding between Endometriosis and Crohns Disease, to a venture capital funding comparison with Male Pattern Baldness, then back to another NIH comparison. It's a comparison between Government funded (NIH) and private sector funded (venture capital, including startups) research. Private sector venture funding includes the beauty industry.…

... but rather for the sole act of daring to recognize you have an option. Exactly. It's not about the act of saying no, it's about the display of entitlement. For all the talk I've heard about "men's patriarchal entitlement to women's bodies", I've only ever seen or experienced the opposite (regarding sex, protection, and provision). It all seems like projection. This is part of the argument. We're not only not allowed to say no, but also not expected to say yes. This reminds me of the secondar…

Men suppress their option to consent entirely without any external restrictions forcing them to. As a result of turning down sex initiated by a female partner, I have been yelled at, slapped, hit, told that I'm gay, told that I'm useless, been belittled, and gossiped about. A lot of men have either experienced this personally or are aware of it happening to others. I have also "consented" to sex that I didn't want because of the consequences of saying "no". Thankfully I currently have a partner …

MRA implies political neutrality despite the fact that MRAs are often lumped in with the rightwing, a common misconception, in attempts to discredit them. Speaking of being "lumped in", this sub is not immune either. Have a look in the "Men’s Rights Subreddits" sidebar section of /r/AgainstMensRights ("a community for 14 years") and you will see this sub referred to as "Left"WingMaleAdvocates.

Advocates tell ST that abuse is not limited to physical harm. It includes patterns of coercion, control, intimidation and emotional degradation – behaviour that can be just as damaging, if not more so, over time. However, they caution against false equivalence, and stress that women still account for the vast majority of severe domestic violence cases, especially those involving serious injury or death.

"Man up" / stoicism conditioning: emotions = weakness = shameful. This is the direct cultural cause of men avoiding mental health care. It didn't come from feminism. It came from centuries of conservative masculine ideology. "Male Fragility" is used as a pejorative in exactly same way.

We’re already dealing with our own issues because of that same system you’re complaining about. Like, we’re getting raped and killed. So instead of blaming and burdening women with your gender-specific problems simply because we’re the other gender, blame the people (men) who set it up and leave us alone. In my country, domestic violence (DV) and intimate partner violence (IPV) are seen as almost exclusively men's violence against women. There are no services for male victims of female perpetrat…

My THIRD issue here is what this is implying. If "men do all the war crimes", then are you saying that if female soldiers were in charge, there wouldn't be any (or many) war crimes being committed? Cuz that seems like a fairy tale to me. There's no evidence that female soldiers wouldn't do that, and there's barely a sample size to work with to even test that theory.

What's really telling is how when there's one of those reports of a male student being SA'd by a female teacher, there are comments from women on social media saying how "these comments by men are why male SA isn't taken seriously".

To Jerry Z's credit, from this video, I learned about Peggy Sanday Reeves' cross-cultural study which proved that rape-free societies can exist given the right kind of culture, without authoritarianism. I agree with the feminists that a rape-free society is possible as this study confirms; just not with their current solutions that drive men underground and ignore rehabilitation. The study doesn't examine women's sexual assault of men. This needs to be examined and addressed in order to actually…

It is traumatising, it's just that nobody wants to hear about male victims of female perpetrated violence. I rarely initiate with my current partner but she understands why, when she initiates she always reminds me that "I'm allowed to say no". Healthy and open communication goes a long way.

I can't recall details off-hand, and I'm sure others here probably can or would have a better idea of how to look it up.

Men have always been more likely to be anti-abortions. Not necessarily, it depends on their community, particularly regarding religion. Women in general are more religious than men within a particular faith community, although that is changing. It's practically impossible to tell if a man's opinion on abortion is a genuine conviction or out of support of the beliefs of the women in his community. For example, my mother is quite religious, my father not really at all but he supports my mother's b…

Is this better? It is seen as misogyny to pay females women and girls less for the same work a male man or boy does, (or so they claim is happening). So why is it not seen as misandry for female teachers who are women to actively give male students who are men or boys lesser grades despite similar performance to female students who are women or girls? Do they not realize that the lower the grades are, the lower the GPA is, resulting in the lack of advancement in education for male students who a…

The male loneliness epidemic has nothing, or at least exceedingly little, to do with dating. The male loneliness epidemic is about men losing third spaces and friendships. Totally agree. Countless men (and women) in relationships are lonely and miserable regardless. It's all about friendship and third spaces (e.g. the rise of online gaming as a third space).

And such actions are way older than concept of MGTOW. Men has been doing it for millennia. Exactly the same concept. MGTOW is just a label, in the same way as labels like "playboy" and "confirmed bachelor" (gay men and straight men not interested in relationships) have been in the past. This freedom has almost always been morally judged, sometimes going as far as implementing policies such as a Bachelor Tax.

If you go on your own, just do it without fanfare. Many men have. They will see it as toxic withdrawal, resentment, and defensive posturing, no matter how empowering it is for men to do so. MGTOW isn't a movement, it's a philosophy. There's no underlying ideology, no dogma, it's not prescriptive, it's not an identity, there's no "right way" for men to go their own way. A lot of men are going their way for their own reasons, never even hearing of the term MGTOW. It's just a descriptive label, not…

And anything that harms other people is a complete non-starter for me. Reactive? The word I would use is cautious.

... which has the audacity to claim that deportations “disproportionately harms women and girl migrants”. If you look at it in terms of families and traditional gender roles, it is harming women and girls as you are deporting their providers. That framing, if true, dehumanises men and only values them for their utility. Pretty much the same sentiment as Hillary Clinton's "women are the primary victims of war" rhetoric.

And explicitly don't count women who killed their partners for money as domestic-violence deaths.

Neither women nor men should be allowed to do “paper abortions” as long as the government does not take seriously the funding of child welfare for single parents. Women can already do "paper abortions" surrendering their parental rights and obligations either through adoption or the utilisation of safe haven baby boxes, often without the consent of the father where he wants to keep and raise the child.

Another thing is the assumption that a portion of non-reciprocal violence by women is a reaction to abuse. Also remembering that a non-insignificant and seldom discussed part of this "reaction" is women's use of physical violence in response to men's use of psychological or emotional abuse (i.e. "she just snapped after years of being psychologically and emotionally abused").

One, the article mention is granting citizenship for military service in order to use immigrants, taking a cue from the market. There s an internal debate between the conservatives on the issue of leaving the military services because that means outsiders will fill your slot and so the nation will be at the mercy of immigrants instead of native sons. They often cite Roman history about foreign legions. I don't understand the issue here, what's wrong with granting citizenship to immigrants in exc…

There are currently three offences, Rape, Causing sexual activity without consent (penetrative), and Causing sexual activity without consent (non penetrative).

The 3rd one just seems like the venting you see from time to time in gender based advocacy spaces, it's the same as saying "men are trash" in a women's advocacy space. Throughout history, some women have treated some men badly. I don't think anyone can disagree with that. Besides, I see the denial of, or refusal to see, women's bad behaviour as sexist as it doesn't consider them as being human beings and having the agency that comes with it.
