| 1 | KABOOM! Mike Buchanan Demomansplains feminists on London Live TVI appreciate Mike's courage to speak out on these topics but... he is far from a persuasive orator. He makes outlandish sounding claims - however true they may be - and rarely backs them up with figures or sources or finishes explaining the reasoning behind his statements. He loses his train of thought and then just moves onto the next inflammatory statement. To anyone not already knowledgable about men's issues he just sounds like a raving sexist and they will simply dismiss what he's said. I h… | /r/MensRights | 29/05/17 03:02 AM |
| 2 | Feminist blasts people exploiting the murder of concert goers in Manchester for political gain calling them human garbage. Follows up by exploiting the murders of the same concert goers for political gain exposing herself as human garbage. The lack of self awareness is astounding.Yeah. The difference is that killing civilians is almost universally reviled and illegal under international law. But in the USA, in any country under the auspices of the European Court of Human Rights, and in most others, conscripting men (and only men) and forcing them to fight and die in wars is not only perfectly legal but socially acceptable too. | /r/MensRights | 27/05/17 10:53 PM |
| 1 | Janice Fiamengo--The Unisex University. Is it time for male only universities/colleges?Single-sex primary and secondary schools (with mixed schools an option for anyone who wants to attend one) seem like a beneficial idea for boys and girls but I really think young men and women need to learn to get along at some point. If they go straight into industry having never associated with the opposite sex, the workplace will become a very strange place full of awkward and socially stunted individuals. However, as long as institutions of higher education keep treating young women like del… | /r/MensRights | 07/10/16 03:33 AM |
| 7 | "Barb is [...] Stranger Things' first official casualty [...] a reflection of how little it seems to care about its female characters in general" - Actually two men were killed before Barb, which your horn-rimmed glasses seem to have filtered outStranger Things is a supernatural drama. A feminist critic compiled a list of idiotic reasons about why the series is not sufficiently feminist. One reason was that a female character died and nobody cried, despite easily 90%+ of deaths in the serious befalling men, for whom nobody cried. The critic wrongly stated that the first death in the series was of this woman, ignoring the earlier death of a similarly important male character and one extra. Horn-rimmed glasses are a hallmark of rabid femi… | /r/MensRights | 03/10/16 12:33 AM |
| 44 | "Barb is [...] Stranger Things' first official casualty [...] a reflection of how little it seems to care about its female characters in general" - Actually two men were killed before Barb, which your horn-rimmed glasses seem to have filtered outI’m sick of feminists wanting strong women characters in film & TV while simultaneously crying misogyny when the a female character’s life is treated with the same callousness usually reserved for men. Benny, a named character who took in and fed a lost child and who had about as much screen time as Barb, was executed by government agents in the first episode and his death staged to look like a suicide. An un-named male scientist was also killed in the opening scene. Yet according to this femini… | /r/MensRights | 02/10/16 04:27 PM |
| 66 | Men consistently outperform women in Oxford exams. Solution: ban examsI liked this sentence: There are concerns that the kind of assertive declarations that win middle-class white men firsts also gain them preferment at Oxbridge interviews. There’s an inequality crisis in university admissions and assessment. "There are concerns" - an assertion with nothing to back it up whatsoever - immediately followed by "[therefore] there’s an inequality crisis". What an incredible and baseless leap. | /r/MensRights | 23/09/15 06:47 PM |

When the success of the region starts to falter, then perhaps it could be. But for now, paleness and maleness doesn't seem to have any causal effect on success one way or the other. If a lack of diversity really led to stagnation, it would be no problem at all for more diverse companies and collectives to out-compete the less diverse.

In other words, if at the next examination the subjects are not primed with stereotypes, the effect disappears. If the outsider group is primed … | /r/MensRights | 11/04/15 07:49 PM |
| 10 | Gay Men are WomenI think this boils down to there being two main types of homosexual. The first is, as per your title, men with women's brains (I won't discuss lesbians, just invert the genders and it all applies the same). Many (perhaps most?) men-with-women's-brains grow up feeling like they're in the wrong body; they suffer gender dysmorphia, and we understand this as transgenderism. However, it's conceivable that there are also men-with-women's-brains who don't feel like they're in the wrong body. They are h… | /r/altTRP | 01/01/15 08:57 PM |

Other frustrating spin tactics included, and seQuietly browsing the /r/TwoXChromosomes and /r/Feminism discussions of this article, I'm amazed at how nobody is pointing out that on average, this gives women a major unfair advantage, and only women who are less than 2/10 on the attractiveness scale are worse off than men at any level of attractiveness. If the data showed the opposite and it was posted in /r/MensRights, it would get torn to shreds. Why are those other subs so incapable of scepticism? | /r/MensRights | 15/11/14 12:29 AM |

Just scan through the comments box below any article on the subject and all you'll see are two polarised opinions: "Women are oppressed" versus "This is child abuse!".

| 2 | Birmingham city councilor remains opposed to new cycle network because it would benefit "young, white men"Alden's views are objectionable for several reasons. Firstly, her argument doesn't make any logical sense: If "young white men" are already cycling in Birmingham, then they don't need special cycle lanes to be built for them. The cycle lanes must therefore be being built to encourage everyone who isn't a "young white male" out of their cars. Secondly, and more importantly, even if this scheme were mainly for the benefit of "young white men"; why should it be opposed? In countless other areas, wh… | /r/MensRights | 21/09/14 07:02 PM |

Even if a recruiter is subconsciously thinking "I'm inexplicably angry and this black person is not very good!", in this day and age there will also be a very loud conscious voice in their head saying "Black people deserve a break!

Less likely to be mistakenly judged a threat and shot. And many other ways as well.

| 2 | Finnish equality debate video (with english subtitles)That was OK up until the human rights professor waded in and asserted things without apparently doing any research. He said "women end up in different occupations" and this is clearly a problem that needs to be tackled, but that men dying earlier is just the result of them being free to make choices for themselves and shouldn't be addressed.

There are studies with brain scans showing that these men have something more similar to a female brain structure and you can't change that. If leading a feminine life works for them, that's their business. Even if it doesn't, that's their business.

| 11 | Since we're having a frank discussion about Race and SMV. Data from OKCupidYou may be right, but the problem I have with these discussions is the widespread idea that these discrepancies are caused by some white conspiracy, which has fostered a western or even global culture where everyone has been programmed to be sub-consciously white-supremacist.

| 2 | On white sprinters and female CEOsI like the comparison between Afro-Caribbean sprinters and general abilities of men in masculine fields, because the likely reason that Afro-Caribbeans excel in athletics is because of the selection process performed by slave owners during colonial times; a eugenics program so effective that even the Nazis would have envied it.

| 62 | TIL: Cesar Millan's wife (The Dog Whisperer) filed for divorce in March 2010. She ended up receiving a single payment of $400,000, monthly spousal payment of $23,000 (that's $276,000 a year), AND $120,000 a year in monthly child support. Cesar Millan then attempted suicide.Unless there are children involved. Unmarried men have even fewer rights to their kids, and will have to pay child support whatever happens. Alimony seems to be on its way out, and a prenup might soften the blow of divorce settlements. If there are no children involved, and the dude's had a vasectomy, then definitely, don't get married. | /r/TheRedPill | 08/01/14 02:18 AM |

| 1 | Woman stabs boyfriend for not calling her every two hours, casually smokes a cigarette over him as he's bleeding out, lies to the police, only gets 2 years and 8 monthsI agree that the 6 year case is the most comparable. In that case, unlike the woman abuser, the male attacker had no history of abuse (the abusive woman had attacked her partner with a knife on at least three occasions) - yet his sentence was still more than double hers.

Her barrister of course played the she's a victim! card, which I doubt anyone would ever bother attempting to use as a mitigating factor for a male abuser, so it might be hard to find an exactly matching case: She had been in abusive relationships before the relationship with Mr McMullen but he had not given her any trouble.

The biggest problem for men's shelters is funding. Humans tend to be innately more sympathetic to women and this is amplified by cultural conditioning both from traditional chivalry and modern feminism alike.

Maybe they'll be tearing out clumps of female customers' hair to simulate the effects of a stressful job? | /r/MensRights | 02/05/13 06:41 PM |
| 5 | Think of starting a combo Women's Rights / Men's Rights blogThis is a completely brilliant idea. Like one of those dual-language books with English on the left page and Spanish on the right. There is a huge empathy gap when dealing with men's and women's issues so this would be a great way to combat that. | /r/MensRights | 26/04/13 12:59 AM |

| 1 | My guy friend of several years recently told me that he's Feminist and anti-MRADon't worry if you think your words will fall on deaf ears - especially when talking to someone who is new to a subject. Often their resistance will be automatic and unthinking the first time they are presented with dissident opinions. While your words may not convince them at the time, they may plant a seed which will grow over time. Maybe if the subject comes up again in a few months, your friend will wonder what their objection ever was. An important thing is not to push too hard or be too ag… | /r/MensRights | 23/04/13 04:43 PM |
| 17 | Peter Lloyd to MRAs: "Women-only gym sessions are not part of a feminist plot."This response in the Guardian is a completely bizarre straw-man argument. It's as if the author didn't even read the original article by Peter Lloyd, or is deliberately mis-representing it. Peter stated clearly and prominently that he has no objection to women's only sessoins - but that men should either have equivalent sessions or get a discount in their gym membership for being excluded during certain times. He politely suggested this to the gym, but they refused. | /r/MensRights | 23/04/13 04:23 PM |
| 1 | Peter Lloyd: 'Why I'm suing my gym over their sexist women-only hours' - Men told they can't use gym because women self loath their bodies and men make it worse.As someone mentioned elsewhere, because you're paying 100% to use 90% of the equipment. If it's busy then women will have more choice of machines to use and won't have to queue as much. If they want 11% extra space just for them, they should pay 11% more. Men shouldn't have to subsidise women's bullshit (and nor should the women who don't care about mixed-sex spaces). | /r/MensRights | 21/04/13 06:25 AM |

| 9 | "Men's Rights Movement Sees Resurgence Among Millennial Males" - Reasonably balanced coverage for onceAgree. It started off highlighting some genuine men's issues but then went on to suggest that the cause of all these issues was the masculine male identity and that most men secretly just wish they could put on a dress and can't we all just work together to fight the patriarchy? Oh and BTW the reason men are sad is because they are losing their traditional privileges. And to finish off, here's what the Good Men Project has to say. Yeah this is an accurate representation of the MRM. rolleyes | /r/MensRights | 15/04/13 11:38 PM |
| 18 | Wildest thing happened last week and i need to ventAndroid phones now also offer a device-encryption feature - the phone's memory card and system flash memory are encrypted and the device requests a password on boot. If the phone is taken while it's switched on, they'll have to break the lock code, which you can set to require a long password after 5 failed attempts. In the UK a court can demand encryption keys and passwords, but by this time you will have a lawyer. | /r/MensRights | 11/04/13 11:21 PM |
| 1 | Feminist: only feminism can effectively advocate for men's issues because "the lacking of a theoretical background disqualifies the men's rights activism from making serious claims about sexism." Lol!As a gay MRA, I often feel like screaming: Oi, feminists: Give me back my bloody sexuality! Thanks to the original poster for sharing this, I've left a comment on the blog.

| 4 | A post from the "Yes, I'm a feminist. No I don't hate men" Facebook page - your thoughts on this?Being serious for a moment, the idea is you're supposed to compare yourself not to the spoiled educated comfortable feminists that are criticising you, but rather to the female equivalent of yourself; such as your sister, assuming she is the same race, same sexuality, same level of (dis)-ablement, etc. So even if you're black, poor, gay and disabled, a rich white feminist can still call you "privileged" because your black, poor, lesbian, disabled sister is supposedly worse off than you, because … | /r/MensRights | 10/04/13 09:54 PM |
| 37 | My first time coming out as a victim to my social group....Yep and I remember a white knight on youtube insisting that workplace deaths aren't a gender issue despite being 95% male. If it was 55% female they'd be bleating about it and calling it a gender issue. His argument was "it's an economic issue - not a gender issue". If that's true then the wage gap is also "an economic issue and not a gender issue". I sometimes think the capacity for holding two conflicting ideas in your head simultaneously is a prerequisite of entering the field of feminism. Th… | /r/MensRights | 09/04/13 03:03 PM |

| 1 | NCFM sues selective service for requiring only men to register for the draftI'll help with that. I think my sympathies are actually the inverse of what they "should" be; my stomach turns more when I see a man suffering than a woman or a child, presumably unlike most of the population. I wonder if it's because I'm a faggot. | /r/MensRights | 06/04/13 02:18 AM |
| 2 | NCFM sues selective service for requiring only men to register for the draftIt's a good thing, but depressing. Men's dangers are only addressed when they become women's dangers. It was the same with health and safety; workplace deaths were just considered accidents until women started entering the workplace and getting injured. Around this time, laws were passed making employers liable for the safety of their employees. H&S laws often had specific clauses to protect only women and children from certain dangers and stresses. Even in the present day, we seem to pay as muc… | /r/MensRights | 05/04/13 07:07 PM |

| 4 | Living without women: could MGTOW benefit from laws and structures intended for gay men?I appreciate your point about not wanting government support. But as thrownaway_MGTOW above points out, the government actually puts lots of barriers in the way of MGTOW who would like to raise a family; either through adoption (nearly impossible) or commercial surrogacy (illegal nearly everywhere but California and Russia), and the injustice of sole-mother custody for those men who already have kids. Thus there is a fight for liberty in overcoming these restrictions. As a computer programmer / … | /r/MGTOW | 26/03/13 02:16 AM |
| 2 | Living without women: could MGTOW benefit from laws and structures intended for gay men?Again, wow and thanks for sharing; all I expected was a bit of "nah it couldn't work", "maybe it could work" but I didn't expect so much insight from someone who's been through much of what I described and seen the system from the inside. I mean I understand what you are saying/proposing... but I think an easier way would just be to do an "adult adoption" and mentoring of some 18+ year old orphan kid. I often think of this as well. I think there's a real need to resurrect the idea of "fraternity… | /r/MGTOW | 25/03/13 04:08 AM |

I knew that boys above a certain age have the worst chances of finding adoptive parents but I had no idea it was as bad as you describe. A friend of mine was in foster care from the age of 6 until adulthood and it's left him as a troubled and dysfunctional adult. He's unemployed, uses drugs, is banned from driving and has been in trouble with the police on numerous occasions. To top it off he has a teena… | /r/MGTOW | 24/03/13 11:44 PM |
