1	Life expectancy gap between men and women in the US widened significantly during the Covid-19 pandemic I wonder how much dying from covid was associated with dangerous jobs. Meat packing industry is famous for getting the government to shield them from possible lawsuits from covid deaths and disabilities for refusing to distance workers on the line.	/r/MensRights	14/11/23 10:10 PM
2	Menopause laws rejected by government as they could 'discriminate against men' California has short term disability coverage that allows people to take leave if depression, or suicidal thoughts are an issue that is affecting work. Same for cancer treatment, other issues that could be considered short term disability. If on the other hand whatever condition doesn't have symptoms that necessitate using the SDI then you can't claim it. SDI is taken out of the employee's paycheck, and doesn't cost employer's a dime. I'm guessing countries like Spain and England/UK probably hav…	/r/MensRights	21/02/23 09:33 PM
1	So i get terminated over an argument with female colleagues If that discussion happened like that you should have said you're not comfortable with this discussion, and don't know how to respond in the workplace when called perverted. If that doesn't stop the discussion then you can report them to HR	/r/MensRights	26/01/23 11:23 PM
1	So i get terminated over an argument with female colleagues You should be able to file for unemployment (if you're in the US) if you're not fired for cause, the email doesn't make that clear though.	/r/MensRights	26/01/23 11:19 PM
6	Ukrainian students are not allowed to cross the border to go to study Can you provide links the newspapers don't report on anything about Ukrainian soldiers going into Russian territory. I'm not sure there would be much support for the war if Ukraine is sending people into Russia, but the news should report what is actually going on in the ground, while I get that Ukraine would not be forthright about incursions into Russian territory, having a video of it is hard to deny. Please provide the links. Thanks	/r/MensRights	07/11/22 06:56 PM
4	Is it just me or is the rise of transgender discussions making people realise just how shitty men can be treated in [current year]? Remember one story on Reddit one time where the guy that was transitioning to male said basically, I have to remember to not smile or wave at children when I see them at the store so as to not make the parents uncomfortable, and how he missed being able to do that. I still remember that anecdote because it sounded do sad.	/r/MensRights	17/05/19 09:44 PM
4	Judge tells banned drink-driver who caused massive crash: 'I'd have jailed you if you were a man' I'm not necessarily saying that people like that need to be in prison (especially because it is so expensive), but clearly sounds like the state here has no resources to prevent people like this from operating a vehicle, or from drinking, so the only way to protect the public is incarceration unfortunately. What else could they possibly do, house arrest for the rest of her life? I'm guessing she probably had no insurance either, so the victims here are just f***ed.	/r/MensRights	12/04/19 07:57 PM
2	Homelessness is a gendered issue, and it mostly impacts men I don't know if homelessness groups try to highlight other homeless people to raise more money, or because they don't care about the homeless men. I think the campaigns to try to get more support for same-sex marriage used lesbian couples because that is more likely to be positively received. I couldn't blame them much if they used societies bias to market their charity.	/r/MensRights	13/08/18 07:46 PM
3	Homelessness is a gendered issue, and it mostly impacts men Ironic? As if to say that privilege doesn't give you shit if you're on the street?	/r/MensRights	13/08/18 07:30 PM
2	In 2005 6 female prisoners commited suicide. This led to a bill proposal to close all Womens prisons and sentence them more leniently because their women. In 2010 Men accounted for 57/58 suicides. Yet no such bill proposed to close mens prisons was brought forward. I certainly think that saying anything as a men's rights issue or MRA seems to poison the well so to speak, and people shut you out. When I talk about prison reform I use the same words they used in the 90s, school to prison pipeline for example. But yeah, prison reform should be addressed. A lot of men are put into prison, and then they basically are treated like outcasts from society from that point on. Never to get an education or trade, to be passed over for the few jobs they are qualified, …	/r/MensRights	03/11/16 05:10 AM

Yet no such bill proposed to close mens prisons was brought forward. I think one thing you're missing in this is the role that unions and OSHA used to have in addressing this disposability. A lot of those jobs that lower class men did used to be extremely unsafe, not just risky. People would die in industrial or mining accidents much more often. I think these institutions lost power and became bureaucratic in the 80s and 90s not 1970. But those were examples of men that were seen as disposable doing what was needed to improve their situation.	/r/MensRights	03/11/16 05:03 AM
2	In Uganda, gay men say police use torturous method to 'prove' homosexuality It also sounds like they don't need real evidence to prove the accused is gay, essentially any guy that isn't too popular in the community could be accused of being gay and not have any support. This ends up being a men's rights issue largely due to women not facing the same issue. This was big news back in 2014, but it seems lack of change has put it in the back burner, even for LGBT organizations.	/r/MensRights	03/11/16 01:49 AM
4	Macy's doesn't care that it doesn't provide dads with access to baby changing tables in many of its stores. Sorry I was trying to be somewhat sarcastic, I sometimes forget sarcasm doesn't really work in writing. But for some reason it seems like the only times I see this sort of thing is when single dads or gay couples complain, somehow other parents either get told to shut up, are afraid or worried about saying something because it would make them look bad (no offence but if one is labelled an MRA these days they pretty much become ignored or hated), seen as misogynist for trying to stick up for dads…	/r/MensRights	11/05/15 09:51 PM
