| 46 | A refreshing sight to find here in Sweden!These are more common than not where I live. Most places that have changing stations either have them in the mens and womens washrooms, or in a communal "family" washroom. Very rarely do I see one only in the womens. This is in stark contrast to about 8-9 years ago, when I had all sorts of trouble finding a change station that wasn't in the womens room. I even had one person tell me that the family change room was "for mothers with small children". | /r/MensRights | 24/02/14 06:48 PM |

| 1 | Hockey mom gets 2 years in prison for raping 3 14-year-old boysIn Canada this isn't sexual assault. It was sexual interference, the crime of having consensual sex with one too young to give it to you. If it is a man and a 14 year old girl the media generally uses the same phrasing, although the last time I read about it in the media it was still perfectly legal, so that's kind of moot. | /r/MensRights | 15/06/12 01:58 PM |

The SCC will decide if the crime was criminal negligence or aggravated assault. This will prove very interesting, because in Canada doing this to a female at all is aggravated assault. | /r/MensRights | 28/04/12 01:48 AM |
| 1 | Top court of the Canadian province of Ontario, legalizes brothels.It's legal to sell sex and to buy it. Talking about it is illegal, and it's illegal for it to be someone's primary source of income. The effect is that street prostitution is illegal, but escort services and call girls are perfectly legal. This ruling makes brothels legal too, as well as making it legal to make a living as a prostitute. Being a pimp is still illegal as is street solicitation, but doing it in a place of business is a-okay. | /r/MensRights | 27/03/12 08:16 PM |

Until then Gaelic was somewhat tolerated in Canada, but during and after the second world war the shit hit the fan because (and this is actually what the government believed) Canadian Gaelic = Irish therefore Canadian Gaelic speakers are traitors because Ireland is neutral in the war. | /r/MensRights | 16/12/11 09:49 PM |

| 1 | Ten Congressmen introduce bill to prevent states from banning male genital cutting. H.R. 2400: The "Religious and Parental Rights Defense Act of 2011". Congress banned female genital cutting in 1995. Now they want to PREVENT the banning of male genital cutting.I wouldn't be surprised if the Christian religious right would oppose this. Many of them know that circumcision is not required by Christianity, and indeed the Catholic bible talks about how it is bad. | /r/MensRights | 12/07/11 07:55 PM |

Like I said: "rape victims are usually anonymous and alleged rapists are not.", unless the victim is a minor. If the victim is a minor they'll try to protect the minor by not publishing names, unless there's good reason to believe that the victim can't be identified simply by naming the accused. | /r/MensRights | 08/02/11 05:14 PM |

| 1 | Why Is It Legal to Charge Men More for Car Insurance?Where I live everyone starts with a base rate at 16. As they earn their driving record they get a 2% "discount" per year for each year they have a clean record, to a maximum of 20%. On the other hand, if you get a bad driving record you earn negative "discounts". So, let's say you have 6 years of clean driving, you'd have a 12% discount. Then you cause an accident, you're back down to 0. If you cause another, -12% for you. | /r/MensRights | 30/06/10 02:22 AM |

That was in 1997. My point is, situations like what you describe change with time and place. | /r/MensRights | 25/02/10 06:01 AM |

| 4 | Feminist hypocrite defends female teachers who have sex with underage male pupils, whilst condemning male teachers who have sex with underage female pupilsOf course Canada has its share of murderers and rapists and the like. But I seriously had no idea what constitutes a felony until I looked it up today, apparently the analog here is an indictable offence, one tried by jury. I wonder how well allowing convicts to vote would go over down there. I know it wasn't popular here when the SCOC decided that it was a right that couldn't be taken away. | /r/MensRights | 30/11/09 08:24 AM |
| 8 | Feminist hypocrite defends female teachers who have sex with underage male pupils, whilst condemning male teachers who have sex with underage female pupilsWell, we don't have felonies here, so likewise there are no felons. One tactic used by governments to stay in power is to disenfranchise people. By disenfranchising (I'm using an example here) someone who was convicted of trafficking marijuana it makes it slightly less likely that laws banning trafficking marijuana will be overturned, leading to fewer people in jail for that offence. I know this also wasn't in my original post, but it might also make prison conditions somewhat better if politici… | /r/MensRights | 30/11/09 06:20 AM |

Ambulance rides, casts, and crutches are not covered, but they're pretty cheap and covered by almost everyone's employer's group insurance. Because of that if you were put into the position you describe your liability insurance would only need to cover lost wages during the time in hospital.
