-38	UK: Sentenced to life and a minimum term of seven years for a rape he did not commit. . Because he claimed his innocence he spent 17 years in prison. Then you are fooling yourself into believing that an interpretation is a fact.	/r/MensRights	07/06/24 12:15 PM
-37	UK: Sentenced to life and a minimum term of seven years for a rape he did not commit. . Because he claimed his innocence he spent 17 years in prison. I substantially agree but I don't think that you can conclude that she lied. She might have. Or she might have become genuinely convinced of her memory, perhaps via pressure from others. There is a whole volume of learning about memory in this case. Alas I don't think that it is being examined.	/r/MensRights	07/06/24 12:11 PM
2	Antidepressant withdrawal anger Hi I was a psychologist for many years and have taken SSRIs myself, so I have some thoughts on this. First, I cannot advise you whether or not to stop taking them. I dont know your situation. This is something you need to discuss with Drs/therapist as appropriate. Id suggest that you reflect on the anger in particular, and think about where it fits in all this. However, if you decide to stop, then be aware that symptoms are pretty common. Forewarned is forearmed in things like this! Brain zaps, …	/r/MenSupportMen	22/08/21 09:42 AM

The appeal was not granted on the basis of coercive control, it was granted on the basis that she had mental health problems that were not made clear to the court at the time. Of course if such an approach were taken in similar cases with male perpetrators it would be interesting. A couple of other facts are omitted; when she was found near Beachy Head, she is reported as saying 'if I cant have him, no one can'. Also she placed a hammer in her bag when she …	/r/MensRights	21/12/20 03:45 PM
1	UK: Women have 'right to know' male colleagues' pay, says Labour's Stella Creasy as she introduces Equal Pay Bill. Women will be able to demand to know what men are earning. I look forward to it, as it should highlight the odd place where women are really paid less, and undermine the fantasy that in europe and north america women are paid less for the same work . This should show the gender pay gap for the myth it is, but of course all that will happen is that it will be re-defined and the process will go on... Of course fairness should require that employers publish data on deaths and serious injury by gender , but I wont hold my breath.	/r/MensRights	21/10/20 09:01 AM
2	Male bus driver gets assaulted by 2 women and gets fired It seems that the woman who attacked him got a year in prison, but the driver was seen as showing a lack of control and an inappropriate response (but it doesnt say what that was), even though he said that he thought he might die in the attack. Impossible to judge that one without the video evidence. Would they have done the same if a woman driver was attacked? Im guessing not.	/r/MensRights	13/09/20 11:19 AM

Great analysis. Its no great surprise as you only have to eyeball the data to smell the rat; 2 out of 19 countries in their sample (Belgium and Bolivia) have especially bad outcomes compared to the greater sample (the 196 countries in the world). This is about 11% of their 19 cases, and suggests that the proportion of bad outcomes among female led countries is no different to the male led ones. The paper makes no mention of this. With a small sample, case matching of all 19 (including Belgium an…	/r/MensRights	21/08/20 12:07 PM
1	If someone tells you we live in a patriarchy, show them this post. A superb and well referenced post. Useful as a reference. My hope is that we are now in the position where we were when I was younger; then, casual racism, sexism against women and homophobia were everywhere. It seemed like it would never change. Then, rather like the collapse of the USSR, there seemed to be a massive shift (in fact it took 20 years or so I guess). I desperately hope that the current sexist bigotry might go the same way in a massive shift of the tide. The problem is that the big…	/r/MensRights	06/08/20 10:22 AM

2	Women are twice as likely as men to abuse children The claim is a bit of a stretch. Mothers are one of the perpetrators in 83% of cases, but in most of these they jointly abuse with a male partner or relative. In 28% of cases it was mother alone., compared to 16% or so men alone. Almost a 2:1 ration but this is for the monority of all cases, so its a bit misleading. The true value of this evidence is that it puts a hole right through the 'violence against women and girls' BS. It shows that women are marginally more likely (54%) to be the abuser,…	/r/MensRights	28/07/20 09:38 AM

5	Children's right to have a relationship with their father to be reduced in UK More skewed thinking by the dogmatists. Allegations of dv have become weaponised, masking the danger to children from mothers. They are as likely as fathers to kill their children, and as the CAFCASS review found, half of children killed in families where dv was alleged were not killed by the alleged dv perpetrator. This suggests that either the victim of dv is driven to such lengths that she kills her child, or that perhaps the alleged dv was not the whole story when it came to violence.

STUDY: Self-identified feminists are much more likely than other women to "sacrifice" men in a hypothetical "Moral Choice Dilemma Task" over women. Plus other studies proving gynocentrism is real and misandry among feminists is real The study about the trolley problem is not about feminism. It is about the fundamental bias in favour of women and against men (male disposability). My view is that it is this bias that pervades society and drives a lot of feminist thinking. It is not so much a result of feminist thinking as a cause of some of the distorted attitudes (such as violence against women and girls being somehow worse than violence against men)	/r/MensRights	16/06/20 09:32 AM
1	Just Following Orders Please dont be so arrogant as to tell me what I really want. If police are first on the scene at any incident they are expected to respond apporopriately until better qualified people arrive.

1	An honest good faith question to supporters of the men’s rights movement Interesting question. At its heart intersectionality is a great concept because it tries to get away from the silly monolithic black/white, male/female, gay/straight dichotomies and acknowledge that life is much more complex than that. It opens the possibility that different people in different circumstances can be disadvantaged. Unfortunately like all world views, feminism has tended to try and incorporate the true meaning of intersectionality into its monolithic perspective. At a psychological…	/r/MensRights	06/06/20 10:23 AM
2	Just Following Orders What is most shocking to me is not that the guy fell. It is that the people who pushed him simply carried on. Not one of them showed any human concern or offered assistance to someone who was clearly in trouble. This is how such situations dehumanise people. The appalling military kit they wear adds to this sense of aggression.	/r/MensRights	06/06/20 10:05 AM

"Watford Hospital tells all emergency patients – aside from WOMEN delivering babies – to head to other hospitals"-We knew this would happen despite claims of equality from feminists This is ridiculous.

Both were argued as reasons for distress/loss of control. Akin to the French crime passionelle.

As with other dodgy research, the definition of rape is the interesting part.

Good point, although this survey is a hypoethical comparing hard brexit and joining Eire. My understanding is that the demographics are changing, and I am quite sure that brexit will have an impact.
