| 1 | Women lose protest AGAINST equality in UK pensionsI have missed nothing as there was no relevant point in your original statement and no relevant answer to OP's question. Popularity has no bearing on the validity of your statement and appealing to authority is not a valid defense. But I do wish you well and hope that your weekend is an enjoyable one. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 17/12/17 03:24 AM |
| 0 | Women lose protest AGAINST equality in UK pensionsYour statement may be "logical fact" in some circumstances (the term you are actually looking for is logical consequence) but your statement is also a logical fallacy in the context of the point that was originally raised. OP was looking for an answer to a specific question and did not get one from you. Instead OP got a straw man argument... From both of your comments. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 17/12/17 02:57 AM |
| 1 | Women lose protest AGAINST equality in UK pensionsI see the issue with my wording now: The pension age was raised (for everyone) in 2011. This is the law that the WASPIs are protesting. The WASPIs are not protesting changes from 1995 and stating that law did not address or answer OP's question. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 17/12/17 02:23 AM |

| 1 | Women lose protest AGAINST equality in UK pensionsHi there, UK based here: the answer is yes. It is about the timescale of change being introduced with insufficient notice (in some cases 1 year's notice for a change of 6 years). WASPI women do not argue against female retirement age being brought inline with men. They are concerned about not having proper time to plan ahead. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 16/12/17 11:12 PM |
| 1 | "Medicine" is the patriarchy that desregards women and favours menHa! Exactly. It shouldn't be trumpeted as "good for women" when it could be trumpeted as good for everyone. But that is a point for the company's marketing team I guess. | /r/MensRights | 16/12/17 02:37 PM |
| 2 | "Medicine" is the patriarchy that desregards women and favours menWhen I was at school a female friend of mine was raped. She came from a super religious in a negative way family so telling them about it was a big no no. She would likely have been disowned rather than supported. She told her closest friends and that was it. For her she took a test during her lunchbreak in the bathroom at her weekend job. It came back negative, she was able to dispose of the test there and her family never found out. I'd prefer it if the article made a link to taking tests at w… | /r/MensRights | 16/12/17 02:30 PM |
| 3 | "Medicine" is the patriarchy that desregards women and favours menThink of it from this standpoint: the majority of public toilets, including those in workplaces, have sanitary disposal bins in which a used pregnancy test could be put. This disposable one could work for situations where that isn't the case or for people who wish to be environmentally conscious. The thing that stumps me is that pregnancy tests are effectively a variation of a litmus paper test: the strip itself is traditionally made from paper. They are disposable if they're not put in a plasti… | /r/MensRights | 16/12/17 02:19 PM |

| 2 | Feminist Vs A Transgender On Being The ''BIGGEST VICTIM''exactly. The feminist fails to recognise trans-identity issues as a gender issue but instead as a sex issue (which is actually a hard-line opinion of Ben Shapiro btw - don't tell the feminist!). She is choosing to side sweep the protected category rights of trans people in favour of the protected category of women and I find it frustratingly sad. | /r/MensRights | 16/12/17 02:06 PM |
| 3 | Feminist Vs A Transgender On Being The ''BIGGEST VICTIM''I view this differently to what the title suggests. The feminist is creating straw man arguments to promote her own agenda and ignore the issue being discussed: the gender discrimination act.

The rest of your comment doesn't match the sentiment of your reply in regards to difficulties in overcoming rape. Tagging it before the word "but" makes it come across glibly.

| 1 | FROM The Archives: Male contraceptive blocked by drug companies who make billions from the female pillI can actually see the point that the interviewee might be trying to make. One issue discussed to a degree by third wave feminists is that the wide range of birth control methods available to women puts the onus of contraception on the female therefore making it oppressive, patriarchal, sexist, unfair etc. etc. Perhaps the suggestion that females boards/CEOs would be beneficial ties into this idea: that they would advocate for more male contraceptives for these reasons.

The same women, no doubt, who protected Weinstein for over thirty years.Actually, my understanding is that second wave feminism views sex workers unfavourably because it's objectification and control.

The same women, no doubt, who protected Weinstein for over thirty years.I saw an interesting Ben Shapiro video about this. He spoke about how willingly engaging in casting couch sex does not count as rape as consent is implied. However, rape/assault technically counts at the point that any party says no and the other continues. Also, if there is any degree of coercion on the part of Weinstein then that too could count.

E.g. some females were given one year's notice of a change of up to six years. In some cases this hasn't been an issue (just work an extra couple of years, no big deal). In other cases it ha… | /r/MensRights | 17/10/17 02:20 AM |
| 2 | ”ME TOO”. Has anyone else seen this passed around Facebook? It excludes men as victims of harrasment and focuses solely on female victims.Yep, it's like logic just totally evades the reality of that first statement. A couple folks have suggested to me to ignore everything that come before the word BUT. "Male experiences are valid but..." | /r/MensRights | 16/10/17 10:46 PM |
| 2 | ”ME TOO”. Has anyone else seen this passed around Facebook? It excludes men as victims of harrasment and focuses solely on female victims.I really hoped that it was a simple oversight on the part of the original twitter post. Otherwise I assumed that it was put there in direct response to the Harvey Weinstein accusations (which haven't included male victims as of yet). Another part of me wondered if the gender specific "if all the women" would be pounced on by gender identity feminists but then the cynical part of my brain thought not. Perhaps proponents of dismantling gender identity don't pounce when the topic is about evils don… | /r/MensRights | 16/10/17 04:58 PM |
| 6 | Feminists in the UK call for lower pension age for women, say it's "equality."UK based here: I think that the issue itself can be more complex in practice. There are two women I know of who faced more than one redundancy after the 2008 crash and were both unable to find a final job before their pensions kicked into force. Both had their pension ages moved in that time frame so they were unemployed (one was married, the other wasn't) and waiting extra time for the pensions they had paid into to become available/supplement other financial resources. Another example was a fr… | /r/MensRights | 16/10/17 04:27 PM |
| 1 | This woman sexually harassed me when I worked with her.Out of sheer curiosity are you talking about the very original twitter post or about someone in your personal network? | /r/MensRights | 16/10/17 03:25 PM |
| 6 | ”ME TOO”. Has anyone else seen this passed around Facebook? It excludes men as victims of harrasment and focuses solely on female victims.Exactly! I was so frustrated when I saw the original text and realised it was specific to women. Here are some comments that have irritated me today through my own FB account (edit: they are from female users): (Tl:dr not as many men as women have been harassed. Don't draw the attention away from this issue by speaking about men). "I'm not sure most men have been sexually harassed or assaulted. Certainly when I speak plainly about the kind of thing I'm used to dealing with many of the men I know… | /r/MensRights | 16/10/17 03:16 PM |
| 2 | 'Male privilege is...'This is the other side of the "patriarchy" that I sense feminists regularly ignore. | /r/MensRights | 16/10/17 11:39 AM |

| 1 | 'Male privilege is...'There was a guy who I went to uni with who only ever work a black shirt and black suit trousers. Every day for 5 years. | /r/MensRights | 16/10/17 09:01 AM |
| 2 | 'Male privilege is...'Nah, that would involve thinking more critically. | /r/MensRights | 15/10/17 08:41 PM |
| 30 | 'Male privilege is...'I think that the thing I notice is that female outfits tend to be so obviously unique (a bright blue or red suit, a brightly patterned dress, leopard print shoes, a sequinned slip) whereas male outfits (particularly smart ones) tend to be based around a dark base such as a grey suit worn with a multitude of different shirts. I'm thinking of smart outfits or people in the media when I say this. For example, I'm thinking of our current UK prime minister (female) who wears bright outfits that are s… | /r/MensRights | 15/10/17 08:40 PM |
