Fair enough but if it's taxpayer money you'd probably know about it since the pols have to take credit. If its just plain private cross-subsidization you the consumer can just take your business elsewhere.

She had more than 600 responses in two days, and 80 per cent of women said they would feel safer with a female taxi driver. More than 70 per cent said they would be likely to use a women-only service. And many said they would be happy to pay higher fares. If there's a market for it, why not? It's not like this is taxpayer money at work.

afaik its a private charity answerable only to its funders, so if you dont like it, dont fund it but sure if its your taxpayer CAD at work then maybe you should let your representatives know you dont like it if your argument is something like a tax-exempt organization is obliged to serve "all" constituents "equally", then that's a much bigger battle that concerns a whole lot of 501c3 orgs and the definition of "all" and "equal"

The Canadian Centre for Child Protection was incorporated in April 1985 as Child Find Manitoba following the disappearance and murder of 13-year-old Candace Derksen. Candace’s mother, Wilma, along with a group of supporters, created the organization to provide the essential services that her family didn’t have access to throughout and following her daughter’s disappearance. Answer: It reflects its founder's and its donors preferences.

While we’re at it, let’s say children who don’t have child support get a special stipend from the government, much like the Social Security payments they’d get if you were dead. Replacing forced fatherhood for the individual with forced fatherhood by society, brilliant!

That seems to me to be a circular line of reasoning: "We should subsidize immunization for all, individual choices be damned, because an individual's health is a public good. Individual health outcomes are public goods, because society is responsible for individual outcomes" This has the smell of assuming the premise!
/r/MensRights23/06/13 05:33 AM

Fair enough, but regardless of whether HPV affects men and women differently, that's an argument for private immunization, since the risk factors are individual lifestyle choices. The rationale for socializing risk is when risk factors are generally equal.

I don't think it should be subsidized for anyone, but if it is, it depends on the distribution of costs and benefits and the principle of distributive justice one is applying. from a purely utilitarian, consequentialist pov it might make sense to only subsidize immunization for high risk populations.

Contracts typically include clauses on breach and termination. Either party can unilaterally exit the contract, but there are damages etc. So a contract could be written to explicitly consent to sex for a given period of time, and if one party changes their mind, the contract would potentially stipulate that the other party would not be held liable etc.

As I understand it, Gardasil requires 3 doses for a limited duration immunity, each of which costs something like a hundred dollars. Is the benefit to the individual commensurate to the cost, for the average man with an average level of sexual activity and partners? I suspect not. If it does not make private sense, is it therefore a public health issue to be subsidized, and who should bear the cost?

What a useless statement. Of course consent is important. The difficult questions are what constitutes meaningful consent, whether consent can be retroactively withdrawn, and how consent can be ascertained by a 3rd party after the fact. There are no easy answers to those questions, which makes this consent issue more complex than feminists make it out to be.

There seems to be an underlying assumption that the overall suicide rate should be equal across the sexes and that any deviation from equality is due to discrimination or what have you. Biology suggests that the normal or natural rate of suicide should differ, just like it does for infant mortality (absent sex selection infanticide).

I don't disagree about the hypocrisy, but the answer to one kind of injustice is not another kind of injustice. If you are open to the idea that life expectancy depends on many more factors than gender or race, such as class, education, intelligence, income, nutrition, lifestyle - some of which are within an individual's capacity to control, then why are you so happy for the state to equalize outcomes along gender (or race) in a way that ignores all those other factors?

Normally we think that higher income individuals have longer life expectancies because they can afford better nutrition, better care etc but there's a trade off with higher stress, risk etc, so that kind of observational comparison would be problematic.

Interesting because TS is leftist, and usually the main opponents to prison reform are the prison guard unions. But now he makes it sound like private prison operators are also against the bill, and that's a right wing constituency, so now the left has to champion the bill.

Some things MRAs should try to become educated about: Statistical theory. There are lies, damned lies, and... you know. Learn the difference. Evolutionary psychology. A controversial field, but one worth learning to understand gender differences. Political philosophy. Feminism has a long and storied intellectual history that its modern adherents draw upon. What do MRAs have? Surely this is more than a reactionary movement.

It is apples to apples. Wages are prices. Specifically, wages are prices for labor. To hold that the state may interfere with markets in one case but not the other is inconsistent.

Whenever people cry discrimination, I always wonder at what point real, legitimate preferences become bias.

I propose that many MRAs are socialists at heart: MRAs are already very sensitive to deep inequities in the liberated sexual marketplace, where alpha males monopolize mates.

They range from Huxley-type eradication of familial relations to eugenics style central reproductive planning to the formation a corps of attractive youths who would service…

I agree. In order to succeed, the MRM's arguments must be based on sound evidence and hard data. The first issue is that most people do not know what strong evidence looks like, and they have to trust in experts who claim to present strong evidence. Problem is, if you don't know how to evaluate a claim well, you probably also don't know how to evaluate an expert.
