| 1 | I wish more women would understand the kind of predicament this puts men inAny article called "What Every Woman Wants" is bound to give you shit advice. I don't think MensHealth is the best source for that kind of information. Really, any article claiming to know what any entire group of people want or feel is going to be bullshit. But, pretending for a moment that this article was even close to accurate about what every woman wants, I don't see the predicament. It's possible to be both dominant and respect your partner. You can have a BDSM relationship with a strong f… | /r/MensRights | 21/02/14 07:52 PM |
| 1 | I wish more women would understand the kind of predicament this puts men inIt just seems so surreal to me that I am attending all these anti rape events with her and at home she wants to be raped. Wanting to be dominated is not the same thing as wanting to be raped. You cannot want to be raped. You can want to pretend you're being raped but that isn't even what you're describing. You're just talking about really aggressive and rough CONSENSUAL sex. You can enjoy BDSM and still be very against rape. There is not conflict here. | /r/MensRights | 21/02/14 07:45 PM |
| -4 | Never thought it'd come from my gf. I just don't know how to react.Your shitty redpill acronym doesn't excuse you from making unfair generalizations about half the population. | /r/MensRights | 16/02/14 06:17 PM |
| 0 | This subreddit's made me paranoid.If OP is worried about paying child support, you should look at the likelihood of a woman receiving child support from a man after having a child. Not just look at the entire population, its utterly stupid. Here's where you're so very confused. OP isn't just worried that he'll have to pay child support. He's worried that women are going to try to FORCE him into becoming a father by tricking him into getting them pregnant so that they can collect child support. If, like his paranoia is telling hi… | /r/MensRights | 15/02/14 04:09 AM |
| 0 | This subreddit's made me paranoid.No they're not. You HAVE to get married to get alimony, you HAVE to have a child to get child support. Honestly, you're a moron if you can't see this. You're cherry picking. Anyone can have a child after puberty, which is typically around 12. Anyone 16-17 can get married with permission and anyone over 18 can be married at any time. So yes, Anyone ages 15 and over is relevant in those statistics. You still didn't explain what the stats I gave are misleading anyone to believe. You didn't explain … | /r/MensRights | 15/02/14 02:33 AM |
| -1 | This subreddit's made me paranoid.It was a biased and misleading stat. You are pointing out the 'vast majority' of women haven't done that, but you're using misleading statistics to try and prove that point. Those don't back up your point at all. Misleading in what way? What am I misleading anyone into believing? The overwhelming majority of women are not receiving child support or alimony. That's all the stat says. The population of women that stat is from is 15 and over because those are the ages where income data is relevant.… | /r/MensRights | 14/02/14 10:24 PM |
| 5 | This subreddit's made me paranoid.It isn't wrong. I said 4% of women receive child support and less than .4% of women receive alimony. That isn't inaccurate. I didn't say "the odds that your wife will divorce you and get child support is ___". I was just pointing out that the vast majority of women have not tricked men into pregnancies for child support payments so shouldn't be seen as untrustworthy. | /r/MensRights | 14/02/14 02:58 AM |
| 0 | This subreddit's made me paranoid.I know. It's about the same pool of women OP would be looking in for a partner. Women finding men to trick into paying child support are not even close to the majority of women and it's not something worth being so paranoid about that you abandon romantic relationships all together. It isn't common. | /r/MensRights | 14/02/14 02:18 AM |
| 5 | This subreddit's made me paranoid.Around 4% of women in the US receive child support. Less than .4% receive alimony. Obviously the women who intentionally con men into pregnancy/marriage in order to get these things are a very small percentage of those overall. Your far more likely to get into a car accident this year than getting tricked into becoming a father at some point in your life. You won't stop driving places because of it, I assume? It's not the epidemic it's sometimes made out to be in this sub. Don't let it ruin anyt… | /r/MensRights | 14/02/14 01:35 AM |
| 0 | This isn't equalityWhat would the average feminist's reaction to that statement be? Well my reaction to that would be the same as my reaction to this image which was basically "Why the fuck does how you act in a romantic relationship have any bearing on whether you're identified as any particular gender?" | /r/MensRights | 11/02/14 04:39 AM |
| 3 | More men are raped in the US than womenI appreciate your analysis and agree with your findings, this article is embarrassing and full of shit. But I disagree with this: The court system and false rape accusations are what this subreddit should focus on Rape is still a serious problem for men and their problems are sometimes unique from women's (like the idea that men cannot actually be raped). Men are more likely to be raped than falsely accused of rape and there should definitely be discussions in this sub about support and advocacy… | /r/MensRights | 07/02/14 11:57 PM |
| 2 | Feminist suggests that famous men should be denied the right of a jury trial when accused of sexual offences.She was definitely manipulating him. I'm just saying she didn't lie about being raped because legally she was raped. And he had done it many times before, with the full knowledge that what he was doing was considered rape, so I wouldn't consider him an innocent victim of a false accusation. | /r/MensRights | 07/02/14 10:41 PM |
| 2 | Feminist suggests that famous men should be denied the right of a jury trial when accused of sexual offences.Not every professional agrees. Some said they thought Dylan showed serious signs of abuse and showed fear while being around her father even when her parents were happy together and family members, including Woody Allen's mother, also said the same thing. Again, I'd love some kind of evidence that it's common for women to force their children to lie about being molested. Saying "I think women are lying" really isn't backing that up. It's just an opinion. | /r/MensRights | 07/02/14 10:39 PM |
| 2 | Feminist suggests that famous men should be denied the right of a jury trial when accused of sexual offences.You think it's fairly common for women to force their children to lie about being molested? Do you have anything to back that up? Nothing in the accusation has a ring of truth to it. That's a pretty bold assertion considering no one can actually know that. We weren't there. | /r/MensRights | 07/02/14 07:52 PM |
| 2 | Feminist suggests that famous men should be denied the right of a jury trial when accused of sexual offences.EDIT: Also that's a major plot point in Orange is the New Black. Technically Daya didn't legally have the ability to consent to sex with Pornstache so he was still guilty of raping her, even if she hit on him, and he knew that. | /r/MensRights | 07/02/14 07:47 PM |
| 2 | Feminist blogger announces ban on male commentersYou're arguments aren't worth hearing or debating. Doesn't mean I don't think you have the right to make them. They're just worthless in this conversation. But it's very typical of the more extreme narcissists in this group to believe that "I don't care what you think." is the same thing as a violation of their rights. Continue with your hyperbolic rants if it makes you feel better but at the end of the day you're still delusional if you think AVFM isn't a cancer to the MRM and disagreeing means… | /r/MensRights | 05/02/14 08:17 PM |
| 2 | Feminist blogger announces ban on male commentersDon't read this: I didn't. You are seriously wasting your time. Nothing you say is going to convince me that you're a valuable member of a community for men. AVFM is the internet's filthy asshole. It shits nasty misogyny AND misandry. If you defend it and believe what they do is helpful or justified, I don't think you're capable of calling out problems within the MRM and therefore your opinion in a discussion about calling out the problems in the MRM is pretty fucking worthless to me. | /r/MensRights | 04/02/14 04:53 PM |
| 2 | Feminist blogger announces ban on male commentersAVFM is a good site and they have done great work. Andddd I'm not reading any further into your post. You are everything that is wrong with the MRM if you think AVFM is a good site for this movement. You are the very mess I am talking about that needs to be swept up and disposed of. I do not care what you think about reflection and internal-criticism in gender equality movements. That's like talking to a turd about why I shouldn't flush the toilet. | /r/MensRights | 04/02/14 05:59 AM |
| 1 | I am not a sexual objectCould someone look less attractive in some kind of clothing compared to some other kind of clothing? Yes, obviously. | /r/MensRights | 04/02/14 03:58 AM |
| 1 | What do r/menrights think of r/theredpill?You can easily find evidence of all that I mentioned in their top posts and in their sidebar reading, but their 7th most popular post of all time written by a mod titled "She Doesn't Love You" covers a few of those things. Their mods and many endorsed contributors have spoken out against women's suffrage and also do so in this subreddit, just ask Demonspawn. | /r/MensRights | 03/02/14 11:12 PM |
| 1 | I am not a sexual objectNo. I'm asking what is it about the short shorts that make them "look good", rather than some other attire in which they look less good? But I don't think other attire would necessarily make anyone look less good. Some people would look better in jeans than shorts, or a dress, or whatever. My point was that when I see someone who looks attractive in shorts I just think they look good, I don't think "they want to be seen as objects". | /r/MensRights | 03/02/14 10:28 PM |
| 1 | I am not a sexual objectAnother classic red herring. I want to fuck you. Therefore I do not regard you as a human being. OP said that these girls want to be seen as SEXUAL OBJECTS. On the one hand women demand that they not be perceived as sexual objects, while on the other they dress in sexually provocative clothing that makes the exact opposite statement. So how can women be taken seriously when they reject objectification, while doing everything in their power to be seen as sexual objects. There is a difference betw… | /r/MensRights | 03/02/14 10:23 PM |
| 2 | I am not a sexual objectWhat are you talking about? He's not saying men shouldn't be allowed to dress this way, he's saying they aren't. They are. Men can dress however they want. And saying they can't and that it's some kind of proof that women who wear shorts are sexual objects is oppressive to both men and women. Who are you and what is your game? If you can't enter into a serious debate then fuck off. What part of this discussion makes you think I'm not being serious? I will not "fuck off" no matter how many insult… | /r/MensRights | 03/02/14 10:18 PM |
| 2 | I am not a sexual objectAre you asking why I think women in shorts look good? I guess it would depend on the woman, but I just appreciate legs and butts. They do not necessarily turn me on or make me want to fuck a person, it can just be aesthetically pleasing. I can find someone attractive, even sexually appealing, without actually thinking of them as a sex object. I don't think of anyone as an object, because...you know...they're people. | /r/MensRights | 03/02/14 08:15 PM |
| 1 | What do r/menrights think of r/theredpill?Ah, Sorry. I misread that last sentence as TRP having closer connection with feminism than /MR. Still, I strongly disagree with the post above. It is important for /MR to disassociate themselves from a group that overlaps with them and often shares a label with them. For the same reason it's important for sex positive feminists to call out trans-exclusionary radical feminists, MRAs need to call out TRP on their hatred and not ignore the overlap in the name of sticking it to "concern trolls". | /r/MensRights | 03/02/14 06:12 PM |
| 1 | What do r/menrights think of r/theredpill?Basic advice on how to get laid is not revolutionary or unique to the red pill. I'd say the controversial part is where they claim all women are inherently untrustworthy, eternally immature, biologically incapable of love, worthless if not young and attractive, and do not deserve the right to vote. | /r/MensRights | 03/02/14 06:00 PM |
| 2 | What do r/menrights think of r/theredpill?TheRedPill has an MRA tag, quite a few of their all time top posts are MRA tagged issues, they have many users who also come here and share the same kinds of thoughts and opinions here as they do there and are upvoted for it (a few of them are all over this thread). Denying any kind of link between the two of them is dishonest. I would not say they are "joined at the hip" but they are not totally separate either. Feminism and TRP do not have an overlap in users and red pillers certainly don't cl… | /r/MensRights | 03/02/14 05:57 PM |
| 2 | I am not a sexual objectWhat you fail to recognise is that men are not allowed to dress this way. As an activist for men, shouldn't you be advocating for men having the right to wear whatever the fuck they want? Also, are you suggesting men don't wear anything tight or revealing? Have you never heard of skinny jeans? ..and perhaps you should look more carefully at your own sexual deviousness, because "they look good" is your head-in-the-sand way of saying that they sexually arouse you. I can't say that I frequently bec… | /r/MensRights | 03/02/14 03:35 PM |
| 2 | I am not a sexual objectWhen I see women in short shorts my immediate reaction is usually "They look good." not "They want to be seen as objects for my sexual pleasure." Hopefully your son will have more common sense than you do and realize that women are human beings regardless of what they are wearing. | /r/MensRights | 03/02/14 06:17 AM |

| 1 | Feminist blogger announces ban on male commentersWhen I encounter it? Absolutely. Do you have an example of a time you ever encountered it and called it out? Or do you deny that you ever encounter it? Sorry if that's a little harder than whining "not all feminists are like that" and "that person isn't a true feminist." Never said that the OP wasn't a true feminist. Nor was I whining. I just find it ironic that a movement that very rarely supports any kind of reflection on it's own hateful members is criticizing all feminists for one blogger's … | /r/MensRights | 01/02/14 06:35 PM |
| 1 | Feminist blogger announces ban on male commentersMRA's have been cleaning house from the start because people have been wrongly painting them as misogynists from the start. Almost every post criticizing any kind of wrong doing by any MRAs is massively downvoted here. Reflection is not welcomed here, and websites like AVFM, which are constantly posting hateful things towards women and not just feminists, are still supported by many MRAs and their website is often given sticky posts by mods. It's very important to self police because the risk of… | /r/MensRights | 01/02/14 06:32 PM |
| -1 | Feminist blogger announces ban on male commentersDo you feel the need to answer for every MRA blogger who says something hateful? How much time do you spend cleaning up your own house? And what exactly would you have me do here? Should I hold a protest because men can't comment on this one blog? Aren't there more important things for feminists and MRAs to be worried about? | /r/MensRights | 31/01/14 11:18 PM |
| 8 | In Memory of all the Men that Protected Women from DangerWell the sinking of the Titanic in 1912 doesn't exactly come up every single day in the feminist movement but I have never seen a single feminist imply that "women and children first" is an idea that we should promote. In fact a very quick search will find you lots and lots of feminists arguing against that concept. It seems to me that you'll just claim any feminist that disagrees with the caricature you've build in your head is on the fringe, despite any evidence otherwise. But if you have any … | /r/MensRights | 27/01/14 08:03 PM |

| 17 | In Memory of all the Men that Protected Women from DangerThe woman has to lose her husband and provider for the rest of eternity, and she's burdened with having to find another sugar daddy. Is it really necessary to demonize women who lose their husbands and make it sound as if it isn't incredibly difficult for them to prove your point? I don't agree with that particular Hillary quote but my god, losing your husband to war isn't fixed by finding a new "sugar daddy". | /r/MensRights | 27/01/14 07:36 PM |

The fact that you 1.)Assume, for absolutely no reason, that she was looking for compliments 2.)Called her "dumb-ass comment" (aka joke about a smiling mugshot) an issue comparable to prison rape jokes 3.) seem to think her attractiveness is at all relevant to this conversation and 4.)believe not calling a woman ugly is going "above and beyond" and fight so valiantly for your right to do so are what clue me into the fact that you probably aren't … | /r/MensRights | 24/01/14 07:49 AM |

You think she posted that comparison photo so people would tell her she was pretty? How does that make any fucking sense? You legitimately believe she was fishing for compliments by making a joke about Justin Bieber's mugshot? That might a conclusion you would come to if you're the kind of guy who is looking for any excuse to insult random women. It pisses me… | /r/MensRights | 24/01/14 07:23 AM |
| 2 | The real rape culture!There's no moral obligation for anyone out there to be "nice" beyond a reasonable doubt, to go above and beyond in order not to hurt someone's feelings. Not calling someone ugly is going "above and beyond"? She didn't even bring up her attractivness or as anyone's thoughts on it. It's not exactly difficult to keep that shit to yourself. Everyone has a right to their opinion, but why would someone feel compelled to share their opinion on someone's attractiveness on a subreddit about men's rights?… | /r/MensRights | 24/01/14 06:06 AM |
| 4 | The real rape culture!She wasn't fishing for compliments. She was making a fucking joke about a guy smiling in his mugshot like he just won the lottery. I don't understand why she needs to hear "the truth" about how attractive she is, that isn't really relevant. It's just shitty and unnecessary. | /r/MensRights | 24/01/14 05:49 AM |
| 6 | The real rape culture!Well after 5 minutes in the rape culture tag on tumblr (which people often regard as some kind of hive for feminists) I found this. And this. And this and this and this and this and this. Also the rape jokes tag is almost all posts from feminists who are upset about the Justin rape jokes going on on their facebook feeds. I don't know why people are pretending feminists are okay with this kind of rape joke. Feminists hate all rape jokes and most definitely are talking about the prison rape jokes … | /r/MensRights | 24/01/14 05:41 AM |
| 4 | The real rape culture!I highly doubt she was sincerely asking. It was obviously a joke about how happy he looked in his mug shot. I also highly doubt Justin Bieber, who has taken thousands of pictures with all kinds of people, was really put off by someone's appearance that much. It was a totally out of the blue and completely unnecessary insult. | /r/MensRights | 24/01/14 05:05 AM |

You have no idea what happened to her, so how can you think you are qualified to decide it wasn't rape?

| 1 | Transgender Teen Only One Being Charged Following Schoolyard Brawl With Female BulliesI just want to clarify - when you say transwomen and transmen you are referring to people who have transitioned into those gender identities, correct? I still feel like there is a strong disconnect here. OP said that feminists don't care about transwomen. As in, they don't care about people who have transitioned from male to female. You said that they have a point. But now you seem to be arguing that feminist don't care about transmen and only care about transwomen. So which is it?

| 2 | 'Girls Need To Stop Crying Rape' says sorority girl Catie WarrenYes I'm sure a guy with a sign saying that he got drunk, cheated on his girlfriend, and is now deciding he was raped would get loads of sympathy. That isn't what her sign says. Her sign says she was raped and all the blame for what happened to her was taken from her rapist and given to her instead. It could easily be a man holding this sign. It could easily say "My rapist doesn't know she's a rapist" based on the fact that there are people who believe men cannot be raped. That doesn't mean that … | /r/MensRights | 17/01/14 07:24 PM |

In fact, you seem to have a whole Reddit name dedicated to posting your radfem views. My "radfem views"? Thinking people can be raped is a rad fem view? I'm a feminist but I am by no means a radical feminist, I don't think you even know what that means. This is just my account for gender justice related conversations.

| -1 | 'Girls Need To Stop Crying Rape' says sorority girl Catie WarrenYou asked for other possible scenarios to explain what happened to her since we have pretty much no detail whatsoever. I gave you a couple possibilities. That is not a red herring, it's most certainly relevant to this discussion. You said people were never blamed for being raped, I showed you that that definitely happens. You said no MRA would say clothing attributed to a rape, I showed you that there are MRAs who believe dressing "slutty" causes rape.

| -2 | 'Girls Need To Stop Crying Rape' says sorority girl Catie WarrenSee, you're still dodging the fact that she claimed that he didn't know it was rape. And you're ignoring what she's actually saying, which is that he had all the blame for his crime taken from her and placed onto her, and therefore can get away with thinking he's not really a rapist. The reason you are incapable of logical discussion on this topic is that you're working from a contrived stance that there are people who don't know what rape is. ....

| -1 | 'Girls Need To Stop Crying Rape' says sorority girl Catie WarrenIf you have sex with a woman who is unconscious (even if it's because of her own choices to drink) that's rape. I doubt you'll find a single MRA who thinks either of those two things aren't rape. It's not difficult at all to find people who believe that having sex with an unconscious or incapacitated person isn't really rape. It's also pretty easy to find examples of people who think that certain behaviors or actions mean someone should expect rape, or that they are asking for it.

But you have no idea what she defines as a rape. You saw a picture of her holding a sign about being blamed for her rape. That's all. You have absolutely no details about what happened to her.

She also said "he didn't know he was a rapist."

When she told her friends she was now calling her consensual encounter a rape, they told her it wasn't and she got even more upset Why do you think that?

Well, the fact that there is evidence of them helping both transmen and transwomen suggests that they are willing and happy to do both.

You do understand the difference? Either way, my answer is yes. There are plenty of examples of feminists helping transmen and transwomen, you could easily find them yourself in a few minutes of research.

I think most feminists (other than asshole TERFs) have shown support for the trans and genderqueer community, regardless of where they fall on the spectrum.

It most definitely is. I was just pointing out that those cases do exist and I was surprised he had never heard of one particularly famous case.

Emma Robert's boyfriend didn't file any charges and so was never convicted of domestic violence and they never split up.

Injuries, unwanted pregnancy, rape kits, loved ones not believing you or abandoning you, policing not believing you, traumatic court appearances, potentially seeing your rapist walk free, being blamed for your own rape.

At most she admitted to being an accessory after the fact.

| 1 | Not All MRAs Are Like ThatBecause it doesn't matter if that's the stated purpose of their group, they still spend a lot of time talking about men's rights and anti-feminism. Most of their top posts are focused on these subjects, just like this sub. They have a crossover in material and members. It is not shocking that people see a link between the two, is all I'm saying. | /r/MensRights | 03/10/13 04:08 AM |
| 1 | Not All MRAs Are Like ThatThen why were you asking for examples of it? I never even implied that they did. Directly linking each other is not the only way to show solidarity or agreement. | /r/MensRights | 01/10/13 05:54 AM |
| 2 | Not All MRAs Are Like ThatI haven't personally seen them directly link TRP sub. What I said was that there is crossposting of the same websites and concepts between here and TRP, as well as many shared members. And from what I've seen MGTOW is far more strongly supported within the MRM than TRP. | /r/MensRights | 01/10/13 05:20 AM |
| 2 | Not All MRAs Are Like ThatAre you asking for examples or asking if people link directly to TRP on /mr? TheRedPill is about more than just game theory. They have plenty to say about anti-feminism (which is a huge focus of this subreddit and AVFM) and various other topics. Most of their all time top posts are related to Men's Rights and feminism. Plenty of their users also post here. It most certainly does involve itself with the MRM, whether they are officially endorsed by the mods/AVFM or not.

| 2 | Not All MRAs Are Like ThatInteresting, thank you for explaining some history behind AVFM. I'm not sure why you're giving me so much attitude but alright. That still didn't really tell me whether or not TRP subreddit and greater RP community outside of reddit was born from the same concepts AVFM/the MRM is supporting.

| 1 | Not All MRAs Are Like ThatWell if you're going to tell me that AVFM has had their own separate version of the red pill since before this newer concept of it, I figured you had something to back that up. Also the red pill, as it is explained and supported on the TRP sub, is older than the sub itself. Obviously. Their ages don't really prove anything. | /r/MensRights | 01/10/13 02:31 AM |
| 0 | Not All MRAs Are Like ThatI'm assuming you mean borrowed. And all that does is prove my point further that The Red Pill and Men's Rights are often intertwined. If what you're saying is correct, the current red pill group was born out of Men's Rights. Considering they're both about "sexual politics" and "accepting the truth about women" etc. Either way, I would love to see some evidence that AVFM is not supporting the same concepts with their "red pill", especially considering the overlap in members of the MRM and TRP. | /r/MensRights | 01/10/13 02:04 AM |

But they also talk a lot about traditional marriage, female hypergamy, the "truth" about men and women, and the general red pill lifestyle.

That they don't know this gives men every right to doubt their authenticity as 'egalitarians'. Men are divided on circumcision as much as anyone else.

There is a list right in the side bar of this community of ways in which men are discrimina… | /r/MensRights | 16/05/13 05:27 PM |
| 0 | Tired. So fucking tired.It would be understandable, but not correct. That's all anyone has been trying to say From what I have seen it has never been the position of this movement that it's understandable or acceptable to mistrust men for the deeds of a few bad guys. And here you are, coming over from SRS to nit-pick anything you possibly can into a weapon I didn't come here from SRS. Posting on SRS doesn't make it like, my homeland. , in a thread where all anyone's trying to do is help a severely depressed person I do… | /r/MensRights | 16/05/13 04:41 PM |
| -1 | Tired. So fucking tired.You think that's some kind of profound statement? Of course they aren't born that way. There isn't a gene that makes people hate the other gender. But that doesn't mean they are justified or should accept their hateful feelings towards a massive group of people because of their bad experiences with a few. | /r/MensRights | 16/05/13 03:15 PM |
| -1 | Tired. So fucking tired.So if I was raped by a men's rights activist and then began hating and mistrusting all men's rights activists based on this you would think that's totally justified? If he doesn't think it's fine then why is he saying it's justified and he shouldn't do anything to try and change it? He outright said in replies that he doesn't think this guy should fix this attitude towards half the population. | /r/MensRights | 16/05/13 02:57 PM |
| -6 | Tired. So fucking tired.You clearly don't understand the definition of the word justified. You think it's legitimate and fair and right for him to mistrust women and you don't think he should even try to fix it or stop his bigotry against them. And yet, you are a member of a movement that is suppose to be about GENDER EQUALITY. But here you sit, comparing women to rabid dogs and telling a guy that he has every right to mistrust a whole group of people because of his experiences with a few. That is the exact same defens… | /r/MensRights | 16/05/13 02:51 PM |
| 0 | Tired. So fucking tired.If any of you are ever sitting around wondering "Why don't more people take the MRM seriously?" you can go ahead and read this comment sitting at +34 in this sub right now for your answer. How can you call yourself the true equality movement and say it's okay to mistrust and judge an entire gender? Isn't that everything you say you hate about feminism? That you feel they demonize men? Well what the fuck do you call this? Absolute fucking hypocrisy, that's what. | /r/MensRights | 16/05/13 06:18 AM |
| 6 | Are lesbians welcome here? I've found I go through similar things with women to the guys here.You're saying women vote based on who will give them free shit in a thread about how much you guys totally don't hate women. Right, okay. | /r/TheRedPill | 09/05/13 01:28 PM |
| 8 | Are lesbians welcome here? I've found I go through similar things with women to the guys here.There is no misogyny in here One of your moderators recently claimed that letting women vote was leading to the downfall of western civilization. He argued that women shouldn't have a right to vote. Why even bother pretending the people here respect women? They don't. | /r/TheRedPill | 09/05/13 05:53 AM |
| 2 | Feminists continue to promote male genital mutilation.How is that a myth? Not all FGM is done for the same reason. In many countries they remove or mutilate the clitoris and vagina so a woman will be less likely to partake in pre-marital sex and will be considered sexually pure. From the site you linked Family honor, cleanliness, protection against spells, insurance of virginity and faithfulness to the husband, or simply terrorizing women out of sex are sometimes used as excuses for the practice of FGC. http://www.fgmnetwork.org/intro/fgmintro.html… | /r/MensRights | 08/05/13 07:00 PM |
| 2 | Feminists continue to promote male genital mutilation.I would still say FGM causes more suffering because there are more severe complications that happen more often with FGM and the intentions are to violate the woman. The point of FGM is usually to prevent a woman from being able to achieve orgasm or enjoy sex. It is about taking away control of a woman's sexuality. That isn't why people currently circumcise their sons in the western world. Most circumcised men are able to go on with their normal sex lives as if nothing different happened and they… | /r/MensRights | 08/05/13 04:39 PM |
| 0 | Feminists continue to promote male genital mutilation.Would you mind explaining a little further? How is saying that wrong? How am I giving ammo to those who disagree with me? FGM and MGM are different. They happen in different ways in different cultures with different results. It's okay to think that on average FGM has a more terrible outcome. It doesn't mean I'm not disgusted by MGM. Because in my culture MGM is more accepted and defended I advocate against it more often than FGM which I can't do much about from where I am anyway. So I don't unde… | /r/MensRights | 08/05/13 03:52 PM |
| -1 | According to "theFrogman," misandry doesn't exist. Funny thing: neither does he.Do you think he actually believes it's not real because of spell check? Do you really think that's his argument for why he doesn't believe in misandry? | /r/MensRights | 08/05/13 03:24 AM |
| 0 | Feminists continue to promote male genital mutilation.How am I wrong? Explain. | /r/MensRights | 08/05/13 02:55 AM |
| 0 | Feminists continue to promote male genital mutilation.I'm a feminist and I'm also an intactivist. Every single intactivist I know IRL is also a feminist (and usually a woman, most of them are moms). Not believing female and male genital mutilation are equal isn't the same thing as promoting it. I think when people try to equate them it causes people to become defensive and not open to learning about circumcision and why it's wrong. | /r/MensRights | 08/05/13 12:11 AM |
| 3 | SRS sub tries to portray user on IRC as a rapist because he was goofing around with his girl. This kind of "gossip" can have huge consequences in the real world./r/Drama is not an SRS sub but if it was: No linking to SRS or affiliated subs, or Gawker Media websites. right there in the sidebar. | /r/MensRights | 07/05/13 04:11 PM |
| 25 | SRS sub tries to portray user on IRC as a rapist because he was goofing around with his girl. This kind of "gossip" can have huge consequences in the real world.No one is joking. He said he held down and fucked his girlfriend after she said no, what he's describing is rape. Even if he said she was just playing around or changed her mind after we don't actually know what happened. What we do know is that fucking someone after they say no is rape and that's what he said he did. Considering he posts on theredpill it's really not so hard to believe he might not realize that "she actually wanted it" is NOT a valid excuse to ignore someone saying no. I'm not … | /r/MensRights | 07/05/13 04:09 PM |
