1	Can you please give me 5 real reasons why we don't need feminism in the U.S.? I agree that the aftermath with Daisy Coleman is distasteful. The collusion with the parent and the judge is messed up, I agree, too. However, I do not believe that every judge or prosecutor has similar relations with their constituents where that collusion would affect others. It is possible that some might, but the few do not always represent the whole. With as much public information available, I am surprised that I haven't heard that she and her family have not elevated the issue to a higher…	/r/MensRights	16/03/18 10:57 PM
1	Can you please give me 5 real reasons why we don't need feminism in the U.S.? Actually, I am a survivor of rape. I do believe that rape occurs, but as rape culture is described, the United States does not espouse it's descriptions. If you look at other nations, it is quite possible to describe their laws as rape culture - but the United States is not. Much of the issues that male survivors face you have described right on the nose, at dismissal. I've faced a bit of it, even from people who identify as egalitarian feminists. When you say the female experience is the same, …	/r/MensRights	16/03/18 10:34 PM

The fact that you had to go to the E.R., and couple that with the fact that they're straight out ignoring it doesn't mean that you have to; it will get harder still when they attempt to explain away the knife damages. Either way, let them know they can call, or you WILL.	/r/TheRedPill	28/01/16 07:39 PM

2	Saw this on Facebook There's not a monolithic view, I agree - but there are many negative perceptions cast on men by society. Terms like "toxic masculinity" are thrown around with such a regularity to the point where being male causes people to be uneasy, or assume intentions about their interactions with women or even children. It is apparent you see this as 'missing the point'. What makes a conversation poor is when someone comes into a thread, and contributes nothing but shit on a post.	/r/MensRights	10/12/15 12:27 AM

1	The Rant of a Lurker No, actually - I don't think its silly that women should be forced to sign up for the military. Israel has had all of their citizens trained for combat, with selective service as part of their societal obligations. But honestly - for women, voting is a privilege. Men have to earn it.	/r/MensRights	29/01/14 03:06 PM
2	The Rant of a Lurker Prior to the 1920s (and still today) men are required to sign up for selective service (aka The Draft), in order to vote and to avoid prison time. In other words, men are REQUIRED to fight for their country - in many cases, losing a great number of lives. When you want to call this a 'privilege', it needs to be pointed out that women are STILL not held to these same expectations. Equality = Respect > Responsibility > Disposability.	/r/MensRights	29/01/14 10:28 AM

Well, being deliberately run over by someone in a car is tragic - Sometimes, things are out of our control. Of course I would not blame such a thing on someone personally - however, I would be on the lookout for that vehicle and call the police as soon as I saw it.

1	Because I'm male I must be a potential rapist, murderer, kidnapper, or pedophile. If you assumed these things about a racial group you'd be considered a bigot... This is getting real tiring... If you actually cared to take a look at rape statistics (particularly the CDC and their section under 'forced penetration') you would see that both men and women commit what could be considered rape. (both this study and RAINN's take into number the women who have had sex while intoxicated, and also classify that as rape, even if she initiated). This would imply that all men and WOMEN are potential rapists.	/r/MensRights	17/11/13 05:53 PM

But think of all the non-rapists you're incorrectly and unfairly labeling? If you're that paranoid about dating, DON'T DATE PEOPLE YOU DON'T KNOW. After all - what if you turned out to be a knife-murderer? I mean, if I didn't have 'common sense' to know women 'are only after knife-murdering', I'd be to blame - in your viewpoint. Does this mean I should ask every potential date that question? If so, I wouldn't be getting many responses from non knife-murderers.	/r/MensRights	13/11/13 05:01 AM

"Teach your daughters not to kill their children" - There's an alarming number of reports over the years describing mothers who killed their children for various reasons. It may be a small percentage of mothers - but we have to make sure all those potential mothers know that KILLING YOUR CHILDREN IS WRONG. Now, I realize this comment is out of left field, but a fun one I've found for the 'teach your sons not to rape' fallacy.	/r/MensRights	07/11/13 09:35 AM
