2	A rebuttal to "Hark! A Vagrant"'s Strawfeminism argument. (Bonus: Guess the protest I'm alluding to!) Why dissolve in the future? Isn't the divisiveness being done now just as bad? Seems like ditching the MRM label after the fact is a bit too late. Also, people rarely forget their oppression, and they shouldn't. A blank slate seems like sort of a fantasy.	/r/MensRights	31/12/12 01:45 AM

2	A rebuttal to "Hark! A Vagrant"'s Strawfeminism argument. (Bonus: Guess the protest I'm alluding to!) Labels. People like them. Why is men's rights called men's rights and not egalitarianism? "Feminist" is not a self aggrandizing term, either. It's not exactly viewed favorably by most people. It represents a historical movement.	/r/MensRights	31/12/12 01:21 AM

3	Do women really want to divide up domestic responsibilities in a rational way? Does putting clean clothes in a hamper count as doing laundry, though? Or is it doing a chore that someone else will have to finish? Clothing is generally put away. That's what drawers and closets are for. It seems like a lot of people would rather do the chores themselves than finish up if someone has done it half-assed. I remember one of my friends saying that having to micromanage her husband was more work than doing it herself. What good is help if you have to provide constant direction and …	/r/MensRights	24/12/12 06:26 PM

7	Why Do We Demonize Men Who Are Honest About Their Sexual Needs? Society pressures men to initiate sexual relationships, yet punishes them when they express their sexual needs.

-4	Why Do We Demonize Men Who Are Honest About Their Sexual Needs? Society pressures men to initiate sexual relationships, yet punishes them when they express their sexual needs. There are abstract ideas and there are workable ideas, the same way you can be Marxist but not actually want to live in a communist country. So I might put the opposition to marriage in the "abstract idea" category, even though there will be some feminists completely opposed to it.	/r/MensRights	15/12/12 08:55 PM

I would never argue differently. It's also rigged in a lot of different ways, for a lot of different people. I don't see a problem with being optimistic. I would have had an easy time fucking over my ex all ways to Sunday (not necessarily because I am female, though) but I didn't, and I wouldn't. More people are decent than jackasses, imo.	/r/MensRights	15/12/12 08:52 PM
-2	Why Do We Demonize Men Who Are Honest About Their Sexual Needs? Society pressures men to initiate sexual relationships, yet punishes them when they express their sexual needs. Didn't we just discuss a film about lesbian separatists? That itself as a feminist ideal argues against the idea that feminists only wanted the institution of marriage to be in their favor. Other than here, I've never met one man -- divorced, married or otherwise -- in my entire life who had the institution of marriage destroyed for them. I disagree that it's been ruined.	/r/MensRights	15/12/12 08:34 PM

20	Why Do We Demonize Men Who Are Honest About Their Sexual Needs? Society pressures men to initiate sexual relationships, yet punishes them when they express their sexual needs. That was essentially the subject of the article. We blur the lines between real creeps and imagined ones. We expect men to be sexually dominant and assertive and yet completely demonize them as "creeps" when they act that way. And yes, some of it comes down to unwanted attention = creepy, wanted attention = not creepy. Not always though. Sometimes creepy really is creepy.	/r/MensRights	15/12/12 08:08 PM

I would say you are scorning her marriage. You called it an act of fraud, for starters. Unless we know the personal details of her life, I don't know if we could label her a hypocrite. My guess is that they, as two gay people, may have decided to take advantage of the marriage laws, which given their circumstances could be seen as an act of subversion instead of complicity. Who the fuck knows. Also, Dworkin did not say that all heterosexual sex is rape, but that it can be seen as an act of domin…	/r/MensRights	15/12/12 07:37 PM

10	Why Do We Demonize Men Who Are Honest About Their Sexual Needs? Society pressures men to initiate sexual relationships, yet punishes them when they express their sexual needs. Fuck no, there are genuine creepers, men and women alike. I don't think that is debatable. Sure, level of attractiveness might be tied into determining what is normal versus what is creepy. But come on, even an attractive guy coming up to you and saying, "I can smell your pussy," isn't going to go over very well.	/r/MensRights	15/12/12 07:28 PM
-9	Why Do We Demonize Men Who Are Honest About Their Sexual Needs? Society pressures men to initiate sexual relationships, yet punishes them when they express their sexual needs. I haven't seen any articles like that, but then again, I don't read Cosmo. So having a 31 year life partnership with a gay man and eventually getting legally married translates into a marriage of convenience? Hmm. I don't quite know about that. I wouldn't scorn a gay man being with a lesbian. You never know who you are going to fall in love with.	/r/MensRights	15/12/12 06:44 PM
-2	Why Do We Demonize Men Who Are Honest About Their Sexual Needs? Society pressures men to initiate sexual relationships, yet punishes them when they express their sexual needs.

1	Women’s Studies and the Spread of Man-Hatred It is a bit fallacious to say that women's studies cultivates radical feminism. Radical feminists certainly will be drawn to women's studies, but the does not mean it created them. The coursework itself is far more theory/history and less "pin the tail on the rapist pigs."	/r/MensRights	15/12/12 05:36 PM
51	Why Do We Demonize Men Who Are Honest About Their Sexual Needs? Society pressures men to initiate sexual relationships, yet punishes them when they express their sexual needs. Very interesting read. Of course Elevatorgate came to mind and how easily "not the best time to hit on someone" twists and explodes into "potential rapist cornering me in an elevator." Our expectations of male sexuality are completely fucked.	/r/MensRights	15/12/12 05:23 PM

-1	I'm both a feminist and a MRA. Entitlement isn't gendered. Women are, unapologetically, taking advantage of a cultural shift in their favor, the same way men, unapologetically, took advantage when it was in their favor, the same way anyone would, unapologetically, take advantage of it because it's in some peoples' nature to be self-serving shitholes, and that's what we're always fighting against. And it's probably all a charade because what trumps all this gender crap? Class. That's where privilege really is.	/r/MensRights	11/12/12 08:11 PM
4	Financial Abortion Explained - YouTube The concept originated as "paper abortion" because it's entirely in response to the unfairness that abortion leaves too much choice to women at the disadvantage of men. Women have choice. Men do not. Thus men deserve the opportunity to "abort." I don't know if changing it to "legal parental surrender" makes it more accessible. Parental surrender is a two-person decision. You can't adopt without consent of both parents. Once a child is born, both parents have equal obligations to that child.	/r/MensRights	11/12/12 05:13 PM

-1	Brittni Colleps, Texas Teacher Who Had Group Sex With Students, Says She's the Victim If your wife was caught banging four high school guys, why would you be forthright about anything? I don't know if an open relationship would lend anyone credibility. Polyamory is socially shunned. It could make everything worse. To be honest, I think his defense of her only makes sense in the context of an open relationship. Few people in a traditional relationship would stick by their spouses after this sort of thing. Especially with irrefutable video evidence.	/r/MensRights	09/12/12 11:31 PM

1	Courts ban father from seeing his kids until they are 18 because the mother was sabotaging his relationship with them. "It wouldn't work" because the mother was determined to ignore any court orders to destroy the little girl's relationship with her father. Keep in mind that we do not know any details of the case, except that it is "extreme" and "unusual," and there is a history of violence and abuse between the parents and toward the child. The court deemed it to be in the best interest of the child to not have shared custody. It's not like Joe Blow isn't getting to see his daughter because his ex-wife is being a bitch. Both parents probably have severe issues and can't deal with each other and likely to escalate into violence.	/r/MensRights	08/12/12 05:59 PM

1	So basically every argument against Legal Paternal Surrender can be transposed as an argument against abortion rights. I wonder if the irony is lost on feminists... Most people will take issue to the idea of LPS because it's an obligation due to a child, not a woman. So much of the concept of LPS is that parenthood is something "done" to men, when it's really what, a biological inequity that has been partially resolved for women? Not to mention that if it wasn't for the feminist movement and its work with securing abortion rights, ~1 million more men would be forced to be fathers each year. Scary thought.	/r/MensRights	06/12/12 07:47 PM

How can you argue with that?	/r/MensRights	24/11/12 06:30 PM
4	New form of rape discovered - Birthrape (wish I was kidding) Absolutely. If a person was held down and circumsized against their will, then I imagine it would feel like a form of rape.	/r/MensRights	24/11/12 06:19 PM
1	New form of rape discovered - Birthrape (wish I was kidding) We needn't be so insular. Statutory rape? Technically consensual, although not legally so. And let's not forget, rape is also: "an act of plunder, violent seizure, or abuse; despoliation; violation: the rape of the countryside." So, a violation of a woman's body and sexual organs that causes her considerable trauma? The term rape is apropos.	/r/MensRights	24/11/12 06:08 PM
-1	New form of rape discovered - Birthrape (wish I was kidding) Look at it this way. What is rape? A feeling of powerlessness combined with violation of your body. A woman in labor is in an incredibly vulnerable position, physically and mentally. Fuck, I suffered PTSD just from childbirth. If a woman feels violated by medical conduct or misconduct, and suffers it as a trauma, then I'm not going to argue. It's not like people are saying OBs and nurses should be prosecuted as rapists and put on a sex offender registry. The term "rape" is being used to describe…	/r/MensRights	24/11/12 05:26 PM
20	Why are there so many campaigns against female circumcision. Particularly in a religious and cultural context. Yet no discussion about male genital mutilation? It's a violation of a child's bodily integrity. Why cut off a perfectly normal, healthy part of the human body for no other reason than tradition? Sure, if you think you are fulfilling a covenant with your god, that violation ... might be justified. We do all sorts of stupid shit in the name of religion. But there is no compelling reason to routinely circumcise boys.	/r/MensRights	24/11/12 05:08 PM
30	Why are there so many campaigns against female circumcision. Particularly in a religious and cultural context. Yet no discussion about male genital mutilation? Go visit any parenting board (relevant, as these are the people deciding whether or not to circ their sons) and tell me it isn't being discussed heavily. San Francisco tried to put a circ ban on the ballot but the governor signed a law saying that local governments couldn't ban circumcision. It's absolutely being discussed. And that's probably why the circ rates are dropping.	/r/MensRights	24/11/12 04:46 PM

7	New form of rape discovered - Birthrape (wish I was kidding) Well, if you are ever strapped down to a bed while a nurse or doctor ignores you and forcibly sticks their fingers into your vagina to check your cervix, you can be qualified to determine whether or not it constitutes a form of rape/assault or not.	/r/MensRights	24/11/12 04:33 PM
14	Court says father ‘nothing more than a wallet’ to estranged daughter but he still must pay toward her tuition Did you read the article? Parental alienation is grounds for cutting off child support: "'Courts are reluctant to cut off child support unless it’s really clear cut' that there was a “unilateral and egregious” alienation on the part of the child, he said — namely in cases where the payor did absolutely nothing wrong." The judge decided the father was partly responsible for the estrangement and substantially lowered the child support.	/r/MensRights	22/11/12 03:21 PM

-2	Wife Threatening Action Against me if I get a Vasectomy Same ballpark. Both are choices involving their bodies and each has a natural right to make them. Why is lying about a vasectomy acceptable but lying about an abortion wouldn't be? I'm not saying they are equal choices. I'm speaking only to the issue of bodily autonomy. Just because you have a right to do something doesn't mean you should go behind someone's back to do it.	/r/MensRights	21/11/12 03:08 PM

0	I was at a store that had a room for changing diapers. I thought I was a really great idea until.. That's because it isn't a washroom. It's a breastfeeding room. Which is to give privacy to lactating people (shan't use sexist language) so they don't have to use the restroom to breastfeed. Time to get angry, folks.	/r/MensRights	21/11/12 02:25 PM

7	My school just cut two mens sports programs for a female tennis team. Did anyone read the report? They are cutting men's baseball and soccer to expand and strengthen the men's tennis team, not the woman's. And yes, this looks like a predominantly fiscal issue. The report states, however, that it's also time they stopped "neglecting" the proportionality requirements of Title IX, meaning that Towson, which is 68% female and 32% male, should have a more balanced athletics program. Woa. Crazyyyyy.	/r/MensRights	20/11/12 07:02 PM

"17 year old boy with a naked hot body"? Editorialize much? Really, though, a naked 17 year old boy is child pornography and so I can guarantee there are no naked hot 17-year-old bodies in those abhorrent films. Plus, no one has adequately answered this: Why do we presume someone who watches Twilight lusts after teenage boys? That's as bad as saying male babysitters are most likely child molesters, or people become high school teachers so they can have sex with teens. It. does. not. follow.	/r/MensRights	19/11/12 10:23 PM

These hateful FEMEN idiots don't give a fuck about gay rights, they're just appropriating our cause for their sick anti-male attention whoring purposes.

It was self evident, given she met Ray in 1997 and therefore was an accomplice to THOSE particular crimes (the crimes she was prosecuted for) for two years. There's really no way to spin that. Women getting preferential treatment is a gross injustice, I agree, but I do not think this is one of these instances.	/r/MensRights	17/11/12 06:59 PM

The one who has been doing this shit for two years or the one who has been doing it for twenty and has connections to many other murders/disappearances? Sort of a no-brainer. Also, part of Ray's plea deal included reduced sentence for his daughter.

A male accomplice who lured and strangled a victim got 11 years. I don't see the screaming inequalities here.	/r/MensRights	17/11/12 04:31 PM
