Just to add on here, the numbers get inflated for black crime, especially for drug possession, because there is a more active police presence in black neighborhoods. A white person might do a crime that never gets counted in statistics, because no cop ever stopped them and searched them, or they might have been let go with a warning.

Menslib in a lot of ways is worse than feminism. Seems like it's mostly insecure guys trying to outdo each other in their wokeness. The majority of content there is about how to be a man that fits in the feminist mold for men and how men that don't fit that mold need to be rehabilitated. There also seems to be a minority there who are aware of this trend and use this userbase maliciously to forward their agenda. This is my opinion from interactions with the mod team over calling out some of thei…

Male privilege is not a myth, but female privilege also exists. Men and women are both advantaged and disadvantaged in different ways. As an example, men are expected to persevere through adversity without any help. This manifests itself as a disadvantage when men are homeless, they are less likely to find a spot in a shelter. But it's also an advantage in a career setting where men are more likely to be trusted working independently. Women on the other hand are often seen as deserving or needin…

The title of this is really misleading based on the study. A more accurate title would be "states with lower minimum wages tend to have higher suicide rates". The main comparison in the study is inter-state suicide rates vs minimum wages, and the suicide rates compared are not among minimum wage earners but among all workers. Minimum wage earners only represent about 2% of workers. For example the minimum wage in Montana is among the lowest in the country, but Montana has among the highest suici…

Depends what you think the goal of feminism is. You said earlier that the feminist movement "wants everything" and I'd argue that it's progressing in that direction. The feminist narrative that men are oppressors and women are oppressed is extremely popular. They control the largest voting demographic in the u.s. (women are more likely to vote than men), questioning or opposing their narrative gets you labeled as anti-woman at best and has real world social and economic consequences at worst. It…

First off, you're taking these stats way too personally for some reason. No men don't "have" to pay more, but that doesn't mean the average man doesn't pay more than the average woman. One of the biggest and simplest reasons is that working age women are much more likely to work part time or not at all compared to working age men. Full time workers obviously pay more taxes, because they earn more taxable income. Men also work longer hours, don't retire as early, and choose higher paying professi…

The point of the table is to disprove the statement from the video, which i accomplished by providing the national cps data. I mentioned the sampling discrepancy in the table, but it is not the only difference between the cps and acs data sets; the acs data does not include all income sources in its earnings statistics. It would be misleading to imply that the sampling discrepancy is the sole reason for the difference between the claim and the reality.

The claims in the video are provably false. It makes the subreddit look bad if those kinds of claims get thousands of upvotes. Even if all the sources are correct, the video claims things that are not supported by the sources.

Non-academic audience? What kind of excuse is that for misconstruing data. It doesn't matter if the Times article is legit, the video misconstrued the data. The homelessness data is also misconstrued, presenting the percentage of "hidden homeless" as representative of all homeless.

After some research, the reason for the discrepancy between the Warren Farrell data and the Census data I looked at, is that the Warren Farrell data uses the American Community Survey (ACS) results, while I was looking at the Current Population Survey (CPS). Whether it's a difference in their methodologies or definitions, the two data sets do not match on median earnings.

"The income questions in the ACS cover the major income sources, while the CPS ASEC income questions are much more detailed and provide more comprehensive coverage of all potential income sources." Maybe this is the reason for the discrepancy? The college data alone is not enough to completely reverse the earnings gap. Men work longer hours, commute further, pick higher paying college majors, are more willing to relocate, etc.

The census data I provided was single childless women. The California data is 95% urban dwellers. This data does not match the times article.

95% of the population of California lives in urbanized areas, yet the median earnings for 22-30 year old childless single women in ca is still less than the median earnings of men in the same category in California ($36,400 vs $34,000), so yes I do find the times article questionable. I missed the author, that was my mistake but it doesn't add any validity to the times article nor the video

If you think my results are wrong, it's trivial to disprove them. click the variables you're interested in (number of related children under 18, marital status, sex) search by individual median earnings, and generate data.

I was fact checking the claim "Childless women aged 22-30 outearn young childless men by 8%", which is a direct quote from the video. Not "city women" not "some women". Not sure why you think this post was about the times article, it's about the claims from the video.

How exactly are those two stats not equivalent? They're both comparing median earnings and not wages.

28.5% of black men aged 18-24 were enrolled in college in 2014 compared to 36.6% of black women aged 18-24. This large education gap for black men and women is likely a driver in the income disparity in favor of women in large cities.

Dude you're in the wrong subreddit. Both the mean and median IQ is equal between men and women and there is no pro-female bias in that testing. Women dominate jobs like nursing and teaching, which are difficult, important, and require sacrifice. Your dismissal of the importance of jobs like these is absurd. Software engineering is not too intellectually challenging for women, it's just women tend to prefer careers that are more people oriented. Most of what you said is unsubstantiated bullshit.
/r/MensRights08/05/18 03:59 PM

Men are not more intelligent than women on average. The distribution of intelligence for men has a larger standard deviation, so there are more male geniuses, but also more male idiots. The average is the same. Salary is not always directly related to difficulty. Women are much worse at their jobs? Citation please. Men and women have different goals and priorities, that doesn't mean women don't work hard or are bad at their jobs.

Not sure why I'm getting downvoted. The sample is not representative of the population and a quick look at the statistics makes it completely obvious.

Some of these facts are misleading. For instance "Young single childless women earn 8% more than their male counterparts". This statistic is only comparing young childless women who live in the top 150 biggest cities in the US. It's an important distinction, because when you compare all young childless women, they earn less than men on average.
