| 1 | I've lived my life as both male and female and have seen how each gender is treated first hand as both: AMAI have an acquaintance who is FtM that seems to be a fairly vocal feminist. He recently posted an image with the feminist quote "There is no female mind. The brain is not an organ of sex. Might as well speak of a female liver" - Charlotte Perkins Gilman. I sent him a private message so as not to stir anything up on his wall and told him I meant no offense, but I liked to an article about the differences between female and male brains. I never got a response, so I can only imagine that he didn't … | /r/MensRights | 21/09/14 10:00 AM |
| 1 | Response to Equality vs Equity analogyThat is exactly what I was thinking. My main problem with the use of the word privilege is that it is used in such a broad way.

Rich women don't need the help and poor men can't bear the burden. | /r/MensRights | 05/09/14 04:33 PM |
| 1 | Response to Equality vs Equity analogyForgive my terrible 30 second drawing. Hopefully you can get the idea of the illustration. Feminists have been posting this picture: http://imgur.com/NnWVIjZ implying that feminism helps everyone achieve equality, but I believe that "privilege" theory simplifies issues and leaves feminists with the impression that men are always more privileged than women. Also, the original illustration can easily be viewed a little more literally to show criticism of the way short men are viewed in society. Th… | /r/MensRights | 05/09/14 02:28 PM |
