105	As a black male viewing white culture, I cannot help but feel feminism has co-opted white women (generally) and vilifies white males in mainsteam culture. If true, how or why did this occur?		father_figa	/r/MensRights	25/02/13 08:20 PM

12	Why I Don't Identify as a Feminist Anymore - My first video of a series to explain why feminists' actions aren't promoting gender equality anymore I think that a great topic would be the loss of male identity as a result of over half a century of expanding feminism. I witness an army of men daily who seem lost and seem to have no soul or ambition. Our definition and context for a good life has been undone by feminist cultural ideology. How do men regain a positive, powerful, empowering identity that makes life bearable again within the context of a movement that rationalizes male subjugation as basic to its forward momentum. Discuss how, i…	/r/MensRights	15/05/15 03:54 AM
13	30 Looks 50. Where da men at? It is very weird to me that women view "banging" men as a bragging right. While many men have the luxury to be picky now-a-days, there are still droves of men who will jump at the chance to stick it in any hole a woman offers. From my perspective, I would rather know how often she actually orgasms from these sessions (if at all). I would like to know if she feels used or validated when a 22 year old cums in her and never calls again. I would like to know if she feels accomplished for doing somet…	/r/MGTOW	15/05/15 02:40 AM
1	It finally clicked: I finally get why women turn down sex when they actually want it. Good points. Recently there was a man and a woman who made a video on youtube asking women and men directly to have sex. All of the women said no and most all of the men said yes. I agree there is no collaboration on the part of men or women which could have created such a drastically different outcome. However, cultural, social or some other force causes women to turn down sex often while men accept it often. Do you have any thoughts on why this might be? Also, I am an older guy than many here.…	/r/TheRedPill	25/05/14 09:12 PM
9	It finally clicked: I finally get why women turn down sex when they actually want it. Men have shot themselves in the foot with creating the standard, with creating the stigma. With creating words like "whore, slut, loose, cheap, easy, hoe" In my personal experience, I have seen more women "slut shame" than men. For many men, sluts are a benefit. Perhaps not long term relationship material (because not many people "want" to increase their chances of being cheated on). Women collectively need to control access to sex in an effort to raise the SMV of women as a group. If large grou…	/r/TheRedPill	25/05/14 05:19 PM
1	Mind boggling level of cencorship over at r/feminism It's more due to the fact that feminists get a lot of fan mail if they don't crack down MRAs get that "fan mail" too, but feminists are welcome to debate here. I have seen srs and others post some pretty ugly comments in this forum and they are allowed to defend themselves until they are tired of the game. The point is, they were allowed their argument. I no longer have a desire to debate internet feminists. The real argument is going on in government. It is going on at the grassroots where laws…	/r/MensRights	26/04/14 11:22 PM
8	Mind boggling level of cencorship over at r/feminism It's pretty ridiculous that the only time I've ever had my opinions dismissed and censored should be in a feminist space. Anecdotally, I find it interesting that feminist "spaces" have a culture that is suppose to be respected and separate while male spaces are to be infiltrated and transformed. Protecting a male space is misogyny. Protecting a feminist space is feminism.	/r/MensRights	26/04/14 03:38 PM
1	Addicted to SJW debates and it's ruining my life. So you used a throw away account. That's cool. However, I am having trouble understanding why you would come to a relatively small sub with this type of request. Why not a larger sub with a larger audience? Are you aware that even participating here may be a part of your addiction cycle if in fact you do have an addiction at all? Try Google. At this point I am sure there is a growing body of both research and counselors who deal with any manner of internet addiction. Good luck.	/r/MGTOW	13/04/14 09:30 PM

3	Topless women protesters 'surprised, upset' as men show up with cameras (X-Post to /r/nottheonion) If men had a protest and went bottomless, every bitch in town would have her iphone out snapping pics and giggling with the girls.

0	New Study on Australian men - "So conditioned to being told they’re wrong, they’ve developed gender issue laryngitis" If men aren't capable of fighting back against government funded entities, does that really mean they've lost their masculinity? Yes, if it means that we are powerless against an entity that dictates the dirction of our adult lives. You do understand that an external definition of masculinity has been erased by institutionalized feminism? Groups of men or individuals define masculinity by what is workable in local conditions. Lots of things emasculates modern men.	/r/MensRights	20/11/13 06:25 PM
2	New Study on Australian men - "So conditioned to being told they’re wrong, they’ve developed gender issue laryngitis" If part of my personal definition of masculinity states that I cannot be the victim of abuse and retain my vision of masculinity then it is personally emasculating.

1	Cornell University's Louise Silberling sued for posting John Wender has 'tiny penis' LOL, perhaps. However, it would still be an indication of immaturity to allow anything negative said about me (true or not) to compromise the integrity of my own self worth. Even with (if I had but I don't) a small penis, ugly face and no money, my children and family would still love me. My work could be meaningful and my relationships strong. If the abuse of school yard taunts could undo me, I was hardly anything of value to begin with. No? BTW, nice user name. Relevant?	/r/MensRights	14/11/13 02:51 AM
3	Cornell University's Louise Silberling sued for posting John Wender has 'tiny penis' The most interesting aspect of this story to me is the age of both people (50s?). This all seems so childish and immature for both their stature and ages. I am early 40s and could not even be bothered to entertain a woman saying these things about me. Sure, they would be somewhat hurtful and generally mean spirited, but overall, it would be beneath me to be concerned.

2	Scientists say women have evolved to be ‘indirectly aggressive’ Are you joking? I could be wrong, but I think Kombaiya was talking about war as a proxy for the agression between men of power who use the bodies of other men to fight for them.

3	Are most redditors female or are men becoming chumps today? Most women are neither monogamous. True, but when they become single mothers, it pushes them to act like monogomy is the greatest thing since sliced bread because monogamy fits the female with child narrative as well as pacify a few insecurites. Women hate to be made to feel bad about themselves, be shamed or feel like they are outside of the group. From an evolutionary stand point, group dynamics and conforming to the rules of a social group mean survival to women. It used to be understood that…	/r/TheRedPill	28/10/13 04:41 PM

Every time I read about anti-porn laws or general discussions, they seems to be based on premise that porn is or can be degrading or humiliating to women. Why do I never see the argument that some people actually want to experience those states of being with a partner? It is not invalid to want to both experience humiliation in a safe way or view it from a safe distance. The assumption is made that banning this material will end a form of oppression. In fact, they will be repressing this urge or…	/r/MensRights	15/10/13 07:38 PM

I thought that was a great movie, but not sure (If we are talking about the same movie) how it relates to the topic in the video.

Why do articles with female perpetrators often show a stock image of a similar weapon used in the crime or some quasi-humorous/violent image?

Even though I feel men are a long way off from defining a new core identity for ourselves as a group, I feel great knowing that the veil has come off for so many of us.

When we are happy and satisfied with the world and ourselves, we can engage that world in a way that makes us ambitious and successful. When we have lost our path and definition of who we are in the world, nothing feels very much worth doing.

I seem to remember that early feminism saw marriage as an oppressive institution for women. It was one of the early goals of feminism to eradicate marriage. They sought to do this by creating "strong, independent and educated women" who knew better than to get married. The problem with that was that women at almost every income level still wanted to at least eventually get married.

6	The perfect male birth control. How many of you would opt for it. (Noticed it was posted a year ago, so this is for new readers) I would go for it. The procedure would probably be less painful than vasectomy and more easily reversable. From a mensrights perspective, it would be interesting to see how medical professionals would deal with male sexual autonomy in this way. I have heard the stories of doctors telling men to get the permission of their wives in order to perform the procedure (due to liabilities and the semi irreversable nature of the procedure).

If it actually was unimportant, why do they hide the information from the bio-father and the cuckold? If many of us read the paternity fraud post from a few days ago, it seems it is very important that the father NOT know.

A male, who possibly had been drinking or doing drugs himself, stands against a wall with his hands up in the air (offering no force).

Apparently Feminists think people need to be told not to rape? I find this idea to be interesting given the tendency for children of single mothers to be far more susceptable of crime across the board. I think, perhaps wrongly, that single mothers would be open to tell their children (sons) this this information.

I believe that a great deal of it is revenge, some of it is hatred and still others believe in the supremacy of matriarchy.

While this may also be sloppy media, I would say that the desire not to hold women accountable for their actions is certainly a factor of omission.	/r/MensRights	07/08/13 04:28 PM

Most people who visit this sub are probably well aware of the lengths people will go to preserve the appearance of the intrinsic value of women. Men on the other hand must prove their value (again from a traditional perspective). He has to prove to women and…	/r/MensRights	08/07/13 05:17 PM

1	Why is the exclusionary "PyLadies" group allowed to hold ladies only meetings at PyCon. This seems to violate the Code of Conduct against exclusionary speech. I said it is "becoming" a girls club. The trend is not reversing and few people are working to reverse the it. I have no say so in what groups women choose to form so my opinion means little in that regard. But, if women form exclusionary groups, they should not be surprised if men feel excluded from them or if men treat them differently.	/r/MensRights	31/03/13 01:28 AM

College is becoming a girls club, but still often have women only spaces. Talk of forming male only groups are met with scorn and accusations of misogyny. Why is it ok to segregate any function based purly on a sex difference. Are there any specific African American sub groups like pyblack or perhaps a pylatino or pyasian group? Women often seem to enjoy segregating themselves in tech or male dominated circles then wonder why they are treated as being segregated from the main group.	/r/MensRights	31/03/13 12:57 AM

However, the point of contention seems to be that the woman will always have the right to choose to abort a fetus with no regard for the wishes of the male. The argument is that men should have a period equal to a woman's with regard to opt-out of fatherhood.

They see themselves as taking care of the children in a traditional feminine role but also are making the "lions share" of the money in the home and still doing the domestic chores.

Thankfully, individual black people can succeed and most are really not held back from the opportunity that exists for the majority of Americans.

It is safe to say that the black family is dead. Perhaps it has to do with the policies of offering benefits to women who have no male in the home or simply the cultural beliefs of black America.

It must come into the mind of our horrific judiciary that this is ruinous to the father and therefore affects his children because it destroys his mental state and financial life. I was happy to see from the few comments I was able to stomach that most people, men and women, seem to finally be waking up to how stupid these high alimony and child support payments are.

In an age where there is no real definition of what a man is, it is impossible and insulting to make this argument. A man can be effeminate in our culture. He can be brutish or harsh. Perhaps he is a dancer or football player. His behavior may be overbearing or subdued. Manning up says nothing about the behavior they are trying to promote in men.

Therefore, as you have stated, even feminist tend to avoid appearing racist by challenging the behavior of a more obvious black misogyny (from their perspective).

I don't believe she was trying to do anything malicious but I don't know her so I had to ask the author of the tale. Thanks for sharing and clarification.	/r/MensRights	10/12/12 05:05 PM
5	Gays in the MRM I'm black. While I would not like to compare one person's suffering to another, I would say black MRAs have a unique perspective in America. The media and therefore mainstream culture almost exclusively paints us as Violent, stupid, animalistic and useful primarily as stud service. Our failure in education and social status has been cemented decades ago. Black women have far surpassed our ability to provide or exist on their social strata. When we are boys, a lot of people don't care about us in…	/r/MensRights	10/12/12 04:30 PM
0	Gays in the MRM If the sexes were reversed, as we often say here, there would be hell to pay. If your girlfriend had been subjected to that type of treatment she would have been justifiably angry and received support from others. I'm curious, what was her reaction? She was the one who enabled others to humiliate and assault you. What was her reaction to all of this. Does she know you well enough to know that you may have been hurt by this behavior? Did she go to gay clubs infrequently or did she know what was g…	/r/MensRights	10/12/12 04:02 PM
2	This is a very informal thread, but I really want to know how bad everyone considers rape to be. I can apprechiate your position on this question. However, I must respectfully disagree and maintain my own position. If I have an intent to ensure you get no sexual satisfaction for the rest of your natural life on earth while I violently target the part of your anatomy that (in my opinion) defines your sexuality then I see no clearer charge than sexual assault. No rapist can so totally dehumanize and control a victim as in the manner of a person who has your genitals in hand in a location othe…	/r/MensRights	05/12/12 05:33 PM
2	This is a very informal thread, but I really want to know how bad everyone considers rape to be. Genital mutilation to the point of non-functioning penis or vagina is the most serious sexual assault to me. If my body is still intact after a rape, I can get my mind and freedom back even if it takes years. If someone cuts off my penis and it cannot be reattached, no matter how my mind adjusts to the sexual assault, I will never be the same. I often hear MEN (for crying out loud) and women say he should have his dick or nuts cut off after a male has done crimes less severe than rape even invol…	/r/MensRights	05/12/12 10:58 AM
19	Why do feminists and mens rights activists so frequently represent each other according to their most extreme elements? I think there is a deep unspoken fear of male anger and aggression in the western world which cause mens issues to be ignored. Sure, people love to control male power as police officers, military personel and prison inmates, but free men who raise their voice or hand in anger are frightening to many people. Based on the disposability, invisibility and accepted violence enacted against men in our society it would be unthinkable if we were not angry. Who suffers wound after wound and is still expe…	/r/MensRights	29/11/12 08:07 PM
5	/b/ on feminism [Ex-post from /r/4chan] Yes we are both free people. Please do judge me. "We" will judge you too. I welcome you to not give a shit about my judgement and I will disregard your judging as well. So basically this post is a waste of breath except you will keep pushing your agenda and I will not fail to refute and judge it every time I see this thinking. I refuse to wear your lable and do not care about judgements of lady hating when free thought and speech is far more valuable to me than shaming tactics. Live long and pro…	/r/MensRights	27/11/12 10:28 PM
4	/b/ on feminism [Ex-post from /r/4chan] Just a heads up. Most places I go I am seen as a lady hater and a possible rapist before I open my mouth. A culture which values men would not impune us all as criminals simply by our sex alone. But this culture does. I honestly don't need to hear you dictate to men about what we should not do with our humor, love or hatred. No, two wrongs don't make a right but feminism, in my opinion, has been the most destructive force against modern men coming in a close third to war and cancer. I don't care…	/r/MensRights	27/11/12 09:06 PM
6	"99% of violence against women is caused by men and 99% of violence against men is caused by men" I'm at work so I don't have the time or resources to get you an appropriate answer to your question. I did, however, want to say that often the forms of violence that women exhibit are either not considered "violent" or arrests/charges are never filed to be added to statistical data. Women often use direct violence to harm those who are weaker than them. Children and elderly husbands are subseptible to physical and psycological torture from their female "caretakers" but I doubt there is much evi…	/r/MensRights	27/11/12 02:28 PM
6	Financial "Abortion" - men's rights issue? Don't insult me with sarcasm. I don't believe women enjoy or take abortion lightly. The ability to have the right to not be a parent is a real MRA issue hence the subject of the post you commented on. I can understand you not agreeing with the argument but talking down or being sarcastic instead of arguing your point makes me assume you are a child. Perhaps a troll? Certainly not serious about this discussion. Good day to you "sir."	/r/MensRights	26/11/12 10:21 PM
2	Financial "Abortion" - men's rights issue? This issue isn't about after the child is out of the womb. The woman obviously has to abort before the child is born. It is during this time that the decision must be made by the man if he wants to be a father or not. What you call legal child abandonment by men seems a better situation than the legal murder of a viable fetus of women. It is not so odd a thing to think of abortion like pullling a tooth, but is was not always so simple. It would become just as easy for a man to "abandon" his chil…	/r/MensRights	26/11/12 09:03 PM
5	Financial "Abortion" - men's rights issue? Am I to understand that you are saying that men should be abstinent as the only control mechanism to prevent an unwanted child? Of course if women were told that they should not have sex as a method of birth control rather than an abortion I think you would have some pretty angry women yelling about sexism. The issue isn't about sex, the issue is about a man having the same right to choose not to be a parent. If he wants to go to college or if she was just a fling or any other number of similar …	/r/MensRights	26/11/12 08:52 PM
3	Please, /r/MensRights People Stop Putting Down Other /r/MensRights People Make no mistake that although this is a subreddit about men's rights, that many people have access to visit and comment. There are many people who have hateful and negative views of maleness in general even without the notion of a full-on movement for men. Much of the negativism that you see here may come from people who are articulate, smart and subversive against our rights and freedom to assemble. Subversion does not always present itself in the form of overt disdain or obvious tactics. Subve…	/r/MensRights	15/11/12 12:14 PM
3	I just thought I'd share with you the moment I started to realize that some things were just a little bit off. Thank you for the support. I never want it thought that I want to suppress discussion. I'm glad that you can see I meant no harm but simply felt something there was being unsaid and therefore a thought was being unchallenged.	/r/MensRights	11/11/12 08:01 PM
1	I just thought I'd share with you the moment I started to realize that some things were just a little bit off. Just out of curiosity and for further understanding, to whom is it offensive? And, in what way was it implied that MR being made up of men and women is offensive.	/r/MensRights	11/11/12 07:58 PM
7	I just thought I'd share with you the moment I started to realize that some things were just a little bit off. Yes, this is still, at least due to institutionalized sexism, a male "dominated" society. However, I must point out that the need for a sub-reddit such as this i.e. "Men's Rights" speaks to the fact that the domination or idea of such has diminished or vanished. Rarely do I venture anywhere today where I find male positive language without someone pointing out the feminine equivalent for "balance." I'm sure most of us here, male or female, can give numerous examples of the acceptable use of fema…	/r/MensRights	11/11/12 03:36 PM
1	why does this sub of over 50,000 subscribers barley mange 30 upvotes on top rated posts? I believe what you are saying, however, I find it disheartening that at least 1000 out of 50000 men aren't hardcore activist at least as far as posting and commenting on issues relevant to them. I would hate for male life to get much worse in order to see a rise in men's rights participation.	/r/MensRights	03/11/12 12:20 AM
1	why does this sub of over 50,000 subscribers barley mange 30 upvotes on top rated posts? I have always wondered that too. I also note that when I do comment here I often get more down votes than there are comments. I presume people don't want a rational discussion about mens rights or a down vote brigade visits often. Of course it could be that I just make stupid comments. I love reading this sub and r/conservative but find sub relevant comments lacking in both. I feel that a lot of men (even in this sub) have been brainwased by our culture to believe that when men speak up for inju…	/r/MensRights	02/11/12 11:57 PM
7	Lack of academic publication on the Men's Rights Movement I always find it of interest when some one dictates the terms of argument to the subjects of their argument. It totally invalidates the argument if the terms are defined by one side. No?	/r/MensRights	01/11/12 03:17 PM
1	What's the only thing better than white guilt? Male guilt of course. Awesome reply. Thank you for the insight.	/r/MensRights	31/10/12 12:00 PM
0	What's the only thing better than white guilt? Male guilt of course. All very good points. I would only argue that the societal perception of women were a major issue facing women early in the women's rights struggle. Today, those perceptions are not completely gone but are variable based on situation. Women were perceived as weak, helpless and incapable of equal intelligence of men. These were seen as hard facts and not merely opinion. Today it would be considered "backwards" and ignorant to hold those same views. Perceptions were changed. However, today, women …	/r/MensRights	31/10/12 01:32 AM
4	What's the only thing better than white guilt? Male guilt of course. Your criticism is well taken. But, a few further points if I may. In my opinion, feminism has done far better in the market place of ideas than mens rights. What ever the reason (human history, social structure, etc) feminism can be expressed as "Man hating" and it works for women. Feminism can been seen as male supportive and it works for feminism. Some modern men do hate women and some modern women do hate men. I think it is ok to express that opinion. For some reason this sub seems to think i…	/r/MensRights	30/10/12 04:44 PM
5	What's the only thing better than white guilt? Male guilt of course. I have often seen male pro feminist ideas on this (MensRights) subreddit. I enjoy coming here to get a perspective on what I and many other men are feeling today. Often I see we are angry and feel like we need a place to vent or to have our grievances heard in a world with deaf ears to mens suffering. I understand and accept the anger against women (not physical violence or petty name calling) and feminism but I see the sentiment from the posted image being echoed here. Many comments that are an…	/r/MensRights	30/10/12 12:44 PM
1	Y'all turning into SRS. We need to fix this place. I agree with what you have said here in terms of online discussion. But, all of the raised awareness in the world does men no good without the force of law. Ultimately what men need are people in the legal profession who have power and sympathy for mens issues. I do realize that goes beyond the scope of this subreddit, but it is a great place to organize such a structured movement. It doesn't matter if men are aware of womens issues or not because when the cops and the judges come, they will tea…	/r/MensRights	25/10/12 03:15 PM
1	How come there are no college degrees on mens rights or mens studies ect? To be honest, in some ways I do. I would be lying if I said otherwise. For the longest time, men have not fought. We simply acquiesce to the wants and needs of women while thinking that they are less strong or less smart than "us." Our continued deferrals to the proclivities of women has done what for men? We have VAWA, no reproductive rights, forced infant circumcision (ok thats a side issue but still), fatherhood is all but meaningless in the mainstream, violent rape against men is a cultural …	/r/MensRights	18/10/12 07:26 PM
1	How come there are no college degrees on mens rights or mens studies ect? True. It has been commented that men needed to become involved at the moment that our rights were being infringed by the women's movement. Men do not/did not need to counter women's right to vote. I spoke too generally.	/r/MensRights	18/10/12 04:03 PM
0	How come there are no college degrees on mens rights or mens studies ect? Thank you for your reply. A lot of the issues that I speak up about on Reddit are my personal feelings and observations about my life in this world. I do not presume to be correct. Instead, I am looking to increase my understanding by discussing other perspectives without name calling (mostly). I appreciate it when open discussion like this is valued over silent down votes and glib derision. I have enjoyed reading your thoughts and analysis.	/r/MensRights	18/10/12 03:55 PM
3	How come there are no college degrees on mens rights or mens studies ect? I would like to respectfully disagree. A men's movement was needed on the first day that a women's movement was started. Men have been losing ground/rights in the gender "war" for more than 50 years now. To begin now is to begin behind unfortunately. Part of the problem is that men are not equal to other men although it seems to be assumed so. Higher status males have always had an advantage over lower status males. The women's rights movement have treated all males as if they are high status or…	/r/MensRights	18/10/12 02:51 PM
