11	Cardi b drama rn Some context this leaves out: she was 15 at the time. Still scummy and very much illegal, but robotics' comment implies pedophilia when there was none.	/r/MensRights	28/03/19 10:39 PM
3	Father wants son's school to apologize after he's mistakenly identified as a sex offender Have you got a source for that? I'd love to use that in a discussion but I need sources to back it up.	/r/MensRights	07/11/18 04:51 PM
0	I'm a survivor, and this is my story It's absolutely correct that a woman's social standing can be ruined by being accused- rightfully or not, anonymously or not- of being easy. But it's equally foolish to say that having your reputation ruined is on par with having your freedom and basic rights stripped away forever. The two problems are serious and need to be dealt with seriously, but need to be considered on their own merits without comparison to one another. It's like saying a heart attack and a gunshot wound are the same becau…	/r/MensRights	27/09/18 08:41 PM
2	Father arrested for not paying child support, because he was a hostage for 5 months The "supreme legal document" of the country doesn't come into play here because it defines the rights, responsibilities, and limitations of the governing bodies of the country and assures some basic untouchable legal protections. One particular law, unless it's actively curtailing one of the rights laid out in the Preamble or the first ten amendments (or tries to sidestep the limits on powers of governmental bodies), is well and truly outside its scope. You might as well say "well why can't I sw…	/r/MensRights	19/09/18 11:44 PM

5	"Male privilege is foreskin advocacy groups. The fact that you think your circumcision is somehow on par with female genital mutilation is so gross." ... No. No I am not. You're trying to force the comparison, but this is more akin to comparing getting hit by a car to being run over by a street sweeper. They are superficially similar and that's where it ends. A bullet uses raw kinetic energy to ram its way through somebody. A knife acts as a force multiplier and severs what it acts on. Please actually read what I've posted instead of just assuming that you know better. If you have evidence that shows I'm wrong I'd love to see it.	/r/MensRights	29/08/18 09:38 PM
5	"Male privilege is foreskin advocacy groups. The fact that you think your circumcision is somehow on par with female genital mutilation is so gross." You're... you're not even rebutting the argument anymore. I specifically said that bullets can and do kill; this was never a question. And the issue is not hydrostatic shock (which, as far as I'm aware, has yet to be experimentally proven), because knives don't operate on the same principles as bullets.	/r/MensRights	29/08/18 09:18 PM
7	"Male privilege is foreskin advocacy groups. The fact that you think your circumcision is somehow on par with female genital mutilation is so gross." According to the article "Biomechanics of Knife Stab Attacks" at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10605074 the 95th percentile for axial force (energy delivered along the length of the blade) is 1885 Newtons and the energy was 69 Joules, or just shy of 51 foot pounds. However, while a .45 concentrates its energy over an area of 11.5mm, a knife concentrates it's energy over an area of about .03mm. Let's assume you're using the Double Tap 230 grain FMJ, since it's got a muzzle energy of 471 ft-l…	/r/MensRights	29/08/18 09:02 PM
4	"Male privilege is foreskin advocacy groups. The fact that you think your circumcision is somehow on par with female genital mutilation is so gross." Your average bulletproof vest doesn't use armor plate; it's heavy and stiff and extraordinarily uncomfortable to wear-- difficult to even breathe in. Instead, they use Kevlar fiber in a tight, overlapping weave to provide comfort and flexibility, while also distributing the force behind the bullet over a larger area. In effect, the fibers catch the bullet like a baseball glove. Knives, thanks to the way they work (concentrating a smaller force over a tiny area measured in fractions of millimeter…	/r/MensRights	29/08/18 08:11 PM
3	Huffington Post writers are chosen mostly based on their gender and race. Isn't that the definition of racism? That's why I say it's a hard question to answer, with an even harder problem to solve. If you put in a quota, you run the risk of candidates being hired for literally no reason beyond "if we bring you on we can check off boxes X, Y, and Z." If you don't put in a quota, you run the risk of even further alienating that one kid from the ghetto we all know- the one that works his ass off to prove to the world that he's got so much more to offer if somebody will just give him a chance. I honestly don…	/r/MensRights	16/03/18 06:10 AM
1	Huffington Post writers are chosen mostly based on their gender and race. Isn't that the definition of racism? That's a hard question to answer, really. Personally I'm not a fan of quota-based diversity measures but they're also by far the easiest way to hedge against discrimination. Finding criteria other than "X% of a gives sample must meet Y requirements" that isn't also going to mean more qualified candidates aren't passed over just to meet some arbitrary number is insanely difficult. Honestly, I'm not sure this is something legislation and regulations can solve; discrimination on the scale we're see…	/r/MensRights	15/03/18 09:35 PM
7	Huffington Post writers are chosen mostly based on their gender and race. Isn't that the definition of racism? I think the intent is "if person X is barred from doing Thing because of the basis of InherentTrait, then person Y being actively encouraged to and assisted with doing Thing on the basis of the same InherentTrait is a Very Bad Thing." E.g. an author being denied due to the basis of gender/sex/orientation but then another author being let through (and even encouraged or specifically sought out) on the basis of gender/sex/orientation. That is, however, just what I got from it. I could be wrong.	/r/MensRights	15/03/18 08:27 PM
40	Huffington Post editor incites her followers to mass murder against men I think it's less that people need to be outraged and more that the same kind of joke would never fly if it had any other target. For insatnce, "1) make more white friends 2) kill all black people" is pretty fucked up and not something most folks would excuse with "aww it's just a bad joke so lighten up". I think that's where the anger and outrage is coming from, really.	/r/MensRights	31/12/17 07:01 AM
19	Nobody cares about the boys. He had a name. His name was Adrian. - Boy tortured to death and fed to pigs by stepmother. Child welfare agencies knew what was happening, but they refused to save him. No. This is not "standard 'man up' gender role enforcement". This is very intentional, slow murder. Telling a child "it's only a scrape, kiddo. In five minutes you'll forget it's even there" is worlds apart from locking a child in a shower stall to starve to death. Teaching children-- of any gender-- to power through pain or inconvenience (the typical reason for the "gender role enforcement" you clearly love to hate) is a valuable skill as they get older. I was never abused as a child, but I was…	/r/MensRights	02/09/17 04:47 PM
5	My School Decided to Add a "Gender-Neutral" Bathroom, Guess Who's Bathroom They Took Over... Protip: when somebody just wants to make noise and is adamant they're "right", it doesn't matter how much logic and how many hard data points you throw at them; you'll still lose.	/r/MensRights	21/05/15 09:28 PM
