| 3 | Five high school 'mean girls' targeted boy with false accusations of sexual assault. No consequences.Wow! My mind is absolutely blown. Great find and thank you for sharing! What a can of worms this is. The entirety of Civil Rights law was built on a rotten foundation for 100 years. Due to deep judicial precedent, only the Supreme Court would have the ability to overturn (or even consider) application of the law as enacted by Congress. No matter what political standing, forces, or sentiment the justices might have, it would be almost impossible for them to hold Section 1983, as written in the St… | /r/MensRights | 12/07/23 07:32 PM |
| 4 | Five high school 'mean girls' targeted boy with false accusations of sexual assault. No consequences.I also am not a lawyer. Since they were filing a lawsuit against the school and local government under a 1983 claim, that puts the suit in federal subject matter jurisdiction (constitutional question (14th Amendment)). The Fed Rules of Civ Pro requires joinder of all parties and all claims where the plaintiff has a claim against them that arises from the same transaction or occurrence or series of transactions or occurrences and a question of law or fact is common to all defendants will arise th… | /r/MensRights | 12/07/23 01:45 AM |
| 1 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.Well said. I will say someone has a really great idea in this thread to give all employees a number of sick days each month with the option of selling them back to the company. I'm not against making it easier to take a time off for anyone that needs it, but I am against giving to one class of employees and not all classes of employees. | /r/MensRights | 18/07/22 12:11 AM |
| 1 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.Some of the posts on this sub are quite unfair, but others are legitimate concerns. This particular post was focusing on the effects on women, not undermining their contributions in the slightest. In fact, it's fair to say that because women are working and managing the home, and having children, and doing plenty of other things, they contribute much more to the household than men. I'm sorry you didn't appreciate the post or subreddit. | /r/MensRights | 17/07/22 08:52 PM |
| 1 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.It would seem to be but wouldn't it be a reasonable accommodation? I think it's safe to say that no man has ever felt the pains of menstruation no mater how extreme. However, half the population has. Of half the population was to think it's a reasonable accommodation, wouldn't be worth considering? I'm playing devils advocate here, but it's obvious that some woman have pain or discomfort that no male at birth has ever felt. | /r/MensRights | 17/07/22 06:01 AM |
| 2 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.Employers would still be held accountable for violation of workplace discrimination laws. I would imagine watch dog groups would be ready to pounce on any suit against an employer that want hiring a protected class of employees. In that regard, I doubt sexual discrimination in hiring practices would change very much. | /r/MensRights | 16/07/22 10:59 PM |
| 1 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.My wife appreciates my opinion even if she doesn't agree with it. She is the best wife I could hope for. As for pre or post menopausal, I doubt it would matter. Employees have a right to privacy with regards to their health. An employer requiring proof would not go over well. With that in mind, it would be even more difficult with transgender men and women. | /r/MensRights | 16/07/22 10:54 PM |
| 2 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.Perhaps some see freedom in the requirement to labor and strive for success. I don't know if it's feminism specifically that caused it, but I do feel women have lost in a sense that, success or no success, they are enslaved by capitalism now as well. Maybe in the past many were essentially enslaved with gender roles in the household, but I would think most had more freedom to pursue what makes them happy than they do now. I suppose it cannot be denied that freedom also comes with having greater … | /r/MensRights | 16/07/22 09:56 PM |
| 2 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.I was thinking the same thing. Find something to even the playing field. Just dangle a carrot at least! | /r/MensRights | 16/07/22 04:19 PM |
| 2 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.They absolutely would. In the discussion with my wife, I asked if she would take days off even when they weren't needed and she said she would. No judgement, I've taken sick days when I wasn't sick. Modern medicine really doesn't have a good way of objectively confirming a level of pain. They can see blood pressure, respiratory rates, white blood cell counts, etc., but they can't be certain it's pain that causes it because pain is subjective. This means if women could get menstrual days, it coul… | /r/MensRights | 16/07/22 04:18 PM |
| 2 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.I do know that. The man in Portugal that changed his legal sexual identity to retire early is classic! | /r/MensRights | 16/07/22 04:10 PM |
| 2 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.I appreciate your disagreement with my general premise. I do not have studies or research to back this up. It was intended to be more of an opinion than statement of fact. My opinion or hypothesis is that it is a biologically driven impulse, rather than a societal or nurtured value. | /r/MensRights | 16/07/22 04:07 PM |
| 3 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.It doesn't stop companies from hiring women when they know maternity leave is always possible. Even if they don't have to pay for the leave, they're out of a worker for several weeks. | /r/MensRights | 16/07/22 04:03 PM |
| 6 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.Really the best and easiest way of handling it. I had considered extra sick days for all, but not how to even the field for those who didn't use them. The thought of a sell back option fixes it all. The sell back would have to be an option that could be something you could exercise at anytime to avoid complaints of inflation or withholding pay. I could be on board with this option. | /r/MensRights | 16/07/22 03:57 PM |
| 0 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.Why this would be downloaded is beyond me. This is an excellent explanation and I couldn't have put it better myself. If it's because she has an opinion, that's just silliness. | /r/MensRights | 16/07/22 03:37 PM |
| -14 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.What about reasonable accommodations though? Some women have debilitating discomfort just as some people have debilitating migraines. Wouldn't it make sense to give that accommodation if there was a way to balance the benefits with males in the workforce? The only thing I could think of was to add days to retirement withdrawal that were taken to accommodate the gender specific time off (or sick days taken by any gender). This assumes a system for retirement is in place. | /r/MensRights | 16/07/22 07:13 AM |
| -2 | Wife just asked if I would be opposed to paid menstrual leave. I'm indirectly opposed. I'm curious what do you think.Very well said. I was going to address protectionism as well, but it wasn't really relevant to PTO. I think the opportunity and ability to protect is withering away as well. Ultimately, it's a need to sacrifice oneself for the benefit of his family. Once even the ability to achieve that goal is lost, there is no role to identify with. As I told the wife, if something happened to me, the only contribution that would be lost is roughly 40% of our income. If she was lost, 60% of income, our home, t… | /r/MensRights | 16/07/22 07:03 AM |
| 2 | Another feminist who believes in equal rights..TL:DR: I'm super long-winded, sorry. The author is correct that America will lose no matter what the jury decides. Their concern seemed to be that we should have a bias against those accused of committing DV and SA even where the weight of the evidence is in their favor. The author missed a great opportunity to reduce the negative impacts of this case by informing and educating her readership to seek justice through the courts rather than public opinion. When I read the article, I was expecting … | /r/MensRights | 29/05/22 03:55 AM |
| 3 | shoot a man in the back- get acquitted. When dealing with women better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6You may be right about her likely being found guilty of second degree murder but malice aforethought does not require near as much forethought as most believe. There is no duration of time required to prove it. The only thing that must be proven is that a person acted with the deliberate intent of ending a person's life. In the video, it shows that she intentionally decided and acted to move across the room, open a file cabinet to access her gun, calmly and deliberately take aim and pull the tri… | /r/MensRights | 14/03/18 04:50 AM |
| 1 | I see articles from time to time saying car shops, etc. charge women more than men. People sometimes include that in a "pink tax". What do you think of this? "her Chicago-area store were trained to treat male customers differently"Interesting article. u/aokusman has it right, it's all about the knowledge of the customer in the product/value that is being offered. The reason many men don't get taken advantage of in a car shop is because it's assumed men will call b/s if they're being upsold. Men who know vehicles will call them on it in a heartbeat. Women don't concern themselves with auto mechanics. Could it be that they also expect men working in these industries to be a protector rather than an opportunist? The same app… | /r/MensRights | 18/11/17 12:23 PM |
| 1 | Made the mistake today of saying opportunity should be granted to those who have earned it and gender should not even be a consideration.I thought you might be a lawyer! Care to donate your Evidence outline for a good cause?! haha. It used to be a fact that every elected president since before JFK had been rated more attractive than his opponent. I'm guessing that is no longer the case as of this election. Height of males is a new finding as well. Men over 6 foot are given substantially more job offers, advancement opportunities, and significantly better pay than men 2 inches shorter. This could be because it's been found that ta… | /r/MensRights | 12/11/16 09:56 AM |
| 1 | Made the mistake today of saying opportunity should be granted to those who have earned it and gender should not even be a consideration.The person that made this comment yesterday was a middle-aged white male with plentiful resources and also education and experience that surpasses a great majority of U.S. citizens. His view was that he was born white, male, rich, and to educated parents so his white male privilege was obvious. I was flabbergasted to realize that he doesn't even consider the fact that his opportunities came not from white or male, but from the rich and well educated parents that provided him with more numerous o… | /r/MensRights | 11/11/16 11:39 PM |
| 1 | Made the mistake today of saying opportunity should be granted to those who have earned it and gender should not even be a consideration.The interesting concept that we really can't have an honest and open discussion on is the comparison to female/male capabilities and usefulness to society. What I mean is that women are the physically weaker sex overall. In a growing industrial society, male strength and innate thought processes are often of more utility than a woman's. When it comes to fields or industries that show a greater concentration of women, this is evidence of societal utility. One study I had read about regarding the … | /r/MensRights | 11/11/16 11:08 PM |
| 1 | Made the mistake today of saying opportunity should be granted to those who have earned it and gender should not even be a consideration.(This was written a little more technical than normal given your username. I apologize if it's too dense and long). Not at all the case about my family life. Overall, it was more beneficial to me that my mother did leave when she did. This was part of a narrative of first-hand observations from the point I can remember. The first few being family matters were pretty much the only personal observations I had about inequality in expectations. What really has scarred me is the fact that historicall… | /r/MensRights | 11/11/16 10:30 PM |

| 4 | Made the mistake today of saying opportunity should be granted to those who have earned it and gender should not even be a consideration.I honestly didn't know until today that people outwardly opposed advancement on the basis of merit. The way it was used against me today made it clear that it was being used as an insult - like, "oh, you're dumb enough to think that merit should control reward and not the lack of a penis." I just cannot understand that at all... ESPECIALLY with the election of someone who is going to represent the American people and have almost uncontested power over the world. You'd think everyone would want a… | /r/MensRights | 11/11/16 04:21 AM |
| 6 | Made the mistake today of saying opportunity should be granted to those who have earned it and gender should not even be a consideration.Very, very good thought! I'm struggling to understand why we make distinctions like those so often anyway. There are countless limiting factors for everyone, whether it's that you were born black, born poor, or born to a non-supportive family. There are certainly incidences where racism and sexism still occur in our society but I'm under the impression that those are isolated incidences. | /r/MensRights | 10/11/16 09:36 PM |
| 1 | Spinning weaknesses of the argument into strengths... poorly.There wasn't one. Frustrating isn't it? | /r/MensRights | 14/04/16 07:29 PM |
| 1 | Spinning weaknesses of the argument into strengths... poorly.I really wanted to call the author on bullshit like that but there's no forum for debate. Time magazine just wants to state the already controversial subject without being accountable. The worst part is, most of America would read this article to be gospel coming from Time. | /r/MensRights | 14/04/16 07:18 PM |
| 1 | Spinning weaknesses of the argument into strengths... poorly.The problems if you haven't spotted them... Argument (1): Women work an average of 80 more minutes per day than men - (stated misleadingly) with childcare and unpaid home chores. They intend it to sound like it is 80 minutes more per day and then adding child care and house care on top, but what it's really saying is that men can only use paid working hours in the calculus while women can add unpaid chores as well. What they seem to be arguing for is communism. They think women should be paid fo… | /r/MensRights | 14/04/16 07:14 PM |
| 1 | Another day, another hot female teacher caught having sex with a minor referred to as sex instead of rape.Two things come to mind: (1) $10,000 bond seems incredibly low. The crime says soliciting sex from a minor. I wonder if this means she was offering to pay or give a better grade or something in exchange for sex - of which never happened. (2) I'm sure I'll have some negative feedback here. When I was a teenager, having a sexual relationship with a teacher was a wet dream. I used to fantasize about it constantly. Also, being in my 30's now, I still think it would have been an awesome pleasant expe… | /r/MensRights | 17/12/15 11:15 AM |
