16	No white knights on this train, lady. [x-post from /tumblrinaction] I think the point is that yes, people should help and support people, but that it should be gender-blind. You have an obligation as a human to help your (proverbial) brother, but not as a man an obligation to help every woman.	/r/PussyPassDenied	18/09/16 12:54 AM
-1	McCaskill To Men: "Just shut the hell up!" It's on a comedy show, so I expect it's part satire. Also part, 'elected leaders (who happen to be men) have had too great an influence on women's lives' eg. abortion (which does have some merit). Noting to get too worked up over, IMO.	/r/MensRights	11/11/15 11:29 AM
1	Feminism on Tindr Best course of action, when the bill comes, make her pay her 43.5% of the bill.	/r/MensRights	11/11/15 11:24 AM
4	Humans of New York drawing attention to the reality of domestic violence and paternity rights All true, but not the point of the post. He broke the law, and all here would agree he deserved to answer for the crime. The point of the post is that fathers are treated differently simply for being men.	/r/MensRights	11/11/15 11:07 AM
2	Humans of New York drawing attention to the reality of domestic violence and paternity rights He wasn't a "convicted criminal", he plead for a lesser sentence because the odds were stacked against him in a way they aren't for mothers.	/r/MensRights	11/11/15 11:04 AM
3	Humans of New York drawing attention to the reality of domestic violence and paternity rights The father here isn't upset about being punished for his actions. He is upset that the fact that he is male means he is punished differently. As a parent to a son, you should be concerned too of the inequality of these situations.	/r/MensRights	11/11/15 11:02 AM
5	To those who have arrived here for the first time because of the SNL sketch... Welcome. Please join the discussion. Holy Fuck!. I'm normally not one to write to a network to complain, because I think ignoring that with which you don't agree is the best course of action. But I'm rethinking this one. For shame, NBC and SNL. For shame.	/r/MensRights	09/03/14 10:30 AM
7	Getting divorced turns men into slaves That's the rub. Why, at 50/50, should income disparity be an issue at all?	/r/MensRights	18/12/13 09:29 PM
-15	Three schoolgirls who falsely accused a California teacher of being a "perv" who touched them inappropriately have been ordered to pay him $387,000 for defamation. The ringleader of the group, who was 11 years old at the time, must also pay punitive damages. That's fucked up, but c'mon, she's 11. Surely that has to be taken into account.	/r/MensRights	18/11/13 10:04 PM
2	You don't see these in the ladies clothes department. That's because text on a tshirt is horribly tacky.	/r/MensRights	19/08/13 01:47 AM
1	Child Support Ceiling We're not talking taxes here, we're talking about the distribution of money from one individual to another individual based not on what it takes to support a child (which would make sense), but on the level of income one makes.	/r/MensRights	08/08/13 12:38 AM
1	Child Support Ceiling "I only have to pay the bare minimum to feed and clothe the kid now, so fuck all those other expenses" I agree that this would be wrong. I'm just not sure we should legislate against it. In a perfect world, IMO, the wealthier payment would make minimum payments to a custody parent ONLY if the situation/custody percentage merited it. But they would also provide for things that their income could provide for, such a good health insurance and education costs.	/r/MensRights	07/08/13 06:49 AM
2	Child Support Ceiling to raise the child in a similar way. The assumption that they are entitled to that is incorrect.	/r/MensRights	07/08/13 06:10 AM
1	Child Support Ceiling This isn't about protecting the rich. It's about reducing unfair income distribution.	/r/MensRights	07/08/13 06:05 AM
2	Child Support Ceiling My life would be better with more money too. Should I reasonably expect it?	/r/MensRights	07/08/13 06:01 AM
1	Child Support Ceiling If there is 50/50 custody, the cost burden would be split equally, so why would there be a need to "equalize… between the wealthier parent and the less wealthy parent", regardless of income?	/r/MensRights	07/08/13 05:57 AM
1	Child Support Ceiling What about $800 per month in child support is inherently unstable? Noone here is suggesting not supporting their children.	/r/MensRights	07/08/13 05:44 AM
5	I'm pregnant and we just found out we're having a boy. My husband wants him circumcised, but I'm completely against that. How do I explain this to him? Recognize why your husband feels the way he does. For the longest time, I was pro-circumcism because thats how I am, and coming to terms with it means coming to terms that something is wrong with me, and wrong with my parents decision making. Arguing that a circumcised penis is mutilated (which I would agree with) has the effect of, subconsciously or otherwise, calling your husband's penis mutilated. Imagine how you would feel if you had a disagreement with him that left you feeling like he feel…	/r/MensRights	29/06/13 07:12 PM
5	Shit like this pisses me off It's the flip side to the man joking "My divorce costs me five thousand dollars every month; worth every penny."	/r/MensRights	08/06/13 06:50 PM
23	The infographic about women purchasing power - which shows the reverse of the glass ceiling From your evidence, 100% of dads don't stick around. So clearly your experience is anecdotal.	/r/MensRights	31/05/13 09:07 AM
10	Young man in argument with old couple. Old woman assaults him. Young man proceeds to sit down and open a beer. Old man proceeds to kick him, upper hook him in the face, and squeeze his eyes. Both fall Looks like the bigger guy in white came down to defend the young man, judging by young man's reaction to big guy's conversation with security.	/r/MensRights	24/04/13 01:32 AM
2	Yesterday I was told outright that "we don't hire men." I think labor laws might disagree with you there. You may not agree with it, but the law certainly says otherwise.	/r/MensRights	15/04/13 07:03 AM
1	Yesterday I was told outright that "we don't hire men." Unfortunately, not an effective way. Lawsuits do serve two purposes; one is to make a victim "whole" again, financially, and the other is to inflict punitive damage to a person or company to stop unwanted or illegal behavior.	/r/MensRights	15/04/13 07:02 AM
9	Wildest thing happened last week and i need to vent Because it's not about the money, it's about making sure these illegal actions do not continue.	/r/MensRights	11/04/13 08:51 PM
7	I made an edit of a popular xkcd comic that I think better encapsulates accusations of misogyny. "Drag to resize". I don't get it.	/r/MensRights	07/04/13 11:23 PM
1	Woman solicits guy on Craigslist to harm her in exchange for sex. She then files false rape report.Triggers fear and manhunt in the community. Did I mention she and her BF had broken up that same day? What's this from?	/r/MensRights	31/03/13 05:26 PM
-2	Huffington Post: "If you like big boobs, you're probably a sexist." Sorry, down vote. Misleading title. Correlation ≠ causation.	/r/MensRights	27/03/13 06:02 PM
2	Opinion: The PlayHaven devs had nothing to apologize for, DongleGate was entirely Adria Richards' fault, and PyCon is stupid. I think he's simply saying that the "wrongdoing", the joking, wasn't something that needs to be apologized for.	/r/MensRights	24/03/13 05:15 PM
3	Opinion: The PlayHaven devs had nothing to apologize for, DongleGate was entirely Adria Richards' fault, and PyCon is stupid. They did do something wrong Now, did they really do something wrong? I'd say their actions (the joke) were unwise, but wrong seems like to strong a word.	/r/MensRights	24/03/13 05:13 PM
7	White men alienated in higher ed workplace and are ignored for their trouble Let's agree it'd be different.	/r/MensRights	24/03/13 05:08 PM
2	Adria Richards fired from SendGrid. I don't find it unfortunate that she Adria lost her job, because her job was specifically the opposite of the behavior she displayed.	/r/MensRights	22/03/13 06:07 AM
1	Girlfriend stopped taking the pill without telling me, and is now pregnant. Says she wants to keep it. I'm extremely scared. God speed, my friend.	/r/MensRights	18/02/13 07:51 AM
-1	Girlfriend stopped taking the pill without telling me, and is now pregnant. Says she wants to keep it. I'm extremely scared. I think that it does exempt him from support. It's the male equivalent to unilateral abortion.	/r/MensRights	17/02/13 03:46 PM
0	Girlfriend stopped taking the pill without telling me, and is now pregnant. Says she wants to keep it. I'm extremely scared. You mean the woman has to agree to it. I totally understood that it is his choice fully. I could be way off, I realize.	/r/MensRights	17/02/13 11:02 AM
2	Girlfriend stopped taking the pill without telling me, and is now pregnant. Says she wants to keep it. I'm extremely scared. Isn't giving up all paternal rights an option?	/r/MensRights	17/02/13 09:40 AM
