| 28 | Sometimes we need to remember that oppressive gender roles hurt everybody. (x-post from 2x)I'm not sure who you are angry at. I can only guess it's one of three options. 1) You're complaining about the obvious "troll comments" that have been downvoted into oblivion. Every subreddit has them, and equating a subreddit with its most downvoted comments isn't fair or accurate (as you very well know). 2) Perhaps you're complaining about fair comments that criticize many feminists for a strong anti-male agenda. It only takes some political awareness to see many influential feminists (not int… | /r/MensRights | 30/05/12 09:20 AM |
| 3 | [FR] - Used the old "fall off the couch" trick last night. Worked better than expected.I'm new to this subreddit, and I don't know that much about seducing girls (I've always been a "girlfriend guy" rather than a "pick up girls" guy), so tell me if the following sounds correct: It sounds like this "trick" isn't really a trick at all. It sounds to me that if a woman is willing to come to your bed, you could use just about any excuse to get her there. If she's not going to come, she's not going to come. I think OP could have even just straight-out said: "Let's go to my bed, we'll be… | /r/seduction | 20/05/12 10:37 PM |

| 4 | Could we start calling male circumcision "male genital mutilation" exclusively? Or even refer to it as "infant genital mutilation?"I have a legitimate question — apart from the religious aspects of circumcision, aren't there health/hygienic benefits? I don't know much about circumcision, but I do know that a friend of mine had to be circumcised at the age of 21 for some sort of health reason. | /r/MensRights | 31/03/12 04:28 PM |
| 5 | Is a school allowing girls to wear earrings but not boys a form of sexual discrimination?I am not saying they should. I'm saying it is a different argument. edit: If you are interested in knowing my opinion, I would probably be uncomfortable with women walking around bare breasted, but that is probably just social conditioning. | /r/MensRights | 24/01/12 07:55 AM |
| 26 | Is a school allowing girls to wear earrings but not boys a form of sexual discrimination?I believe that men and women are different enough that we can agree that a man's private parts are his genitals, while for a woman, it's their genitals and breasts. Both sexes should have their private parts covered while they are in a pool. Whether or not female breasts should be considered a private part is an entirely different argument. Now, the wearing of earrings has nothing to do with covering any sort of private area. This is why the pool argument doesn't really have anything to do with … | /r/MensRights | 24/01/12 12:20 AM |
| 1 | DAE Have a problem with the phrase "Be a man" or "Man up"?ohh okay that's fair. I thought he was just trolling at first. there's been a big wave of them in men's rights lately... | /r/MensRights | 21/03/11 11:56 PM |
| 1 | DAE Have a problem with the phrase "Be a man" or "Man up"?of course I know this, and of course I do it, but it's fucked up that society must be this way | /r/MensRights | 20/03/11 06:33 PM |
| 0 | DAE Have a problem with the phrase "Be a man" or "Man up"?uh, is this a joke? if not, please get the fuck out of my subreddit. you're giving us a bad name | /r/MensRights | 20/03/11 09:22 AM |
| 3 | DAE Have a problem with the phrase "Be a man" or "Man up"?Why the downvotes? Instead of downvoting, post in here. I wanted to get discussion out of this. | /r/MensRights | 20/03/11 07:51 AM |
| 5 | DAE Have a problem with the phrase "Be a man" or "Man up"?I disagree with Sarcasticus. I think it's more of two situations: 1) I don't know how to help you or don't want to listen to you, so you should help yourself. I think when this is used, it's usually pretty transparent. 2) Being a man, you are expected to have certain traits. These include: hiding/suppressing one's emotions, being dominant, being in control, being decisive. This is the one I really hate. It's unfair, and it can make men feel inadequate. And it's the kind of philosophies that lead… | /r/MensRights | 20/03/11 06:32 AM |
| 2 | DAE Have a problem with the phrase "Be a man" or "Man up"?It's actually interesting, because it's sort of the complete opposite of sexism towards women (but equally damaging). Sexism towards women usually follows that a woman must be submissive. "Man up" implies that a man must be dominant, which really irks me. Not only does it imply that women cannot be dominant, but it implies that men have no other choice. It's sexist towards BOTH genders. | /r/MensRights | 20/03/11 05:41 AM |
| 2 | DAE Have a problem with the phrase "Be a man" or "Man up"?I think it does more than that. It basically says that you are a man, and you have certain expectations that must be followed because of it. I think it is equally unfair to the sexist expectations that misogynist men place on women. | /r/MensRights | 20/03/11 05:38 AM |
| 3 | DAE Have a problem with the phrase "Be a man" or "Man up"?I was hoping we could get some discussion on the social and cultural implications of this phrase, and whether we think it's fair or not. | /r/MensRights | 20/03/11 05:33 AM |
| 2 | Oh look, someone else is trying to discredit r/MR by posting ridiculous shit.Okay, if you want to talk, I'll answer your questions: 1) I've never (to my knowledge) been cheated on. I think it might have happened once, but I can't be sure. 2) My mother never laid a finger on me. I answered your questions, so you answer mine: (true story) a friend of mine was accused of rape by an angry, jealous ex-girlfriend at my college freshman year. Even though it was proved she was a liar (by her own confession), he was kicked out of housing. Do you consider this fair or equal treatm… | /r/MensRights | 18/03/11 11:18 PM |

Parents did their best to have their daughter treated with the sympathy and sensitivity due to a photogenic white girl.I clicked on the link, and the headline popped up.

| 2 | Pro-Mensrights commenter gets downvoted for trying to explain why Men's Rights isn't "a joke"Pointing out the insane inequity in some of western dating rituals I bet you can think of a lot of old dating rituals that are changed now because they were highly sexist at the time. Insisting feminism is the root of all modern evils...Making it seem like all women are greedy shallow whores Nobody here has ever said that. Don't put words in our mouths because it will make you look like an idiot, such as right now. | /r/MensRights | 15/12/10 08:44 PM |

| 7 | Pro-Mensrights commenter gets downvoted for trying to explain why Men's Rights isn't "a joke"umm, it's severely downvoted now? Doesn't that just reverse everything you just said? I'm pretty sure all comments like those get downvoted here | /r/MensRights | 15/12/10 05:05 PM |
| 16 | Pro-Mensrights commenter gets downvoted for trying to explain why Men's Rights isn't "a joke"I try man, I try. But women just keep saying something along the lines that men DESERVE it because they usually are pedophiles / rapists, or men DESERVE it because it's not worth risking a guilty man getting off, or that men DESERVE it because they have no right to complain because women are treated far worse. | /r/MensRights | 15/12/10 04:45 PM |
| 58 | Pro-Mensrights commenter gets downvoted for trying to explain why Men's Rights isn't "a joke"EVERY time I bring up Men's Rights somewhere else on Reddit, I get a million people shitting on me and I spend the next 3 hours defending us. It's fucking disgusting, and I'm sick of it. Why are people too stupid to acknowledge that there are complexities in this crazy world of ours, and just MAYBE Men's Rights actually STANDS for something, and ISN'T just a bunch of woman-hating misogynists. Goddamn, end rant, I'm just pissed off. It seems like Men's Rights has NO HOPE when the world has this p… | /r/MensRights | 15/12/10 04:04 PM |
| 1 | Girl, 16, jailed after lying about rape after cheating on boyfriend.Something similar happened to a friend of mine. This is why I always wait at least a month or so before sleeping with someone. A month still isn't long enough to get to know someone, but I mean, seriously. When you think about it, when you have sex with a woman you are giving her a weapon that she can EASILY use to throw you in jail and label you as a sex offender for the rest of your life. It'd be the easiest thing in the world for her to do. Don't have sex with people you don't trust. | /r/MensRights | 08/12/10 09:09 AM |
| 1 | "I accused my husband of rape. I was locked up; and he was set free." What's MR's opinion on this mess?Jesus fucking Christ. I'm going to make things easy for you: 1) I never said that men need more aid than women 2) I never said it's easier being male. 3) Your Marie Antoinette analogy doesn't make any fucking sense because it groups all men together. You're acting like a father who's getting screwed over in divorce has anything to do with a misogynist male politician. A father who gets screwed over in divorce doesn't think "OH GEE, I GUESS IT'S OKAY BECAUSE I'M A MAN AND SOCIETY CATERS TO MY INT… | /r/MensRights | 06/12/10 08:27 AM |
| 1 | "I accused my husband of rape. I was locked up; and he was set free." What's MR's opinion on this mess?Except the aberration would be fixed if they did one thing: punish women who are proven (with pure evidence), sometimes even admitted liars about rape. Do you realize that in the yes, sometimes rare cases that a women lies about being raped, she often gets off completely free? Now tell me, if we changed that, how is that hurting the system in any way. It wouldn't. But I can tell you how it will help the system, it will stop discourage women from using society's recovery from misogyny as a tool a… | /r/MensRights | 05/12/10 06:31 AM |
| 1 | "I accused my husband of rape. I was locked up; and he was set free." What's MR's opinion on this mess?I'm talking about how concerned we on MR should be about false rape allegations. If 99.5% of the interactions you will have for the rest of your life won't even involve a rape allegation, why are we all so hyped up about it? I can understand being righteously indignant, but people here (and on the rest of the interwebz) seem downright postal about this incredibly tiny problem. This is the main reason that problems don't get fixed. If 99.5% of the interactions I will have for the rest of my life … | /r/MensRights | 04/12/10 09:18 PM |
| 1 | "I accused my husband of rape. I was locked up; and he was set free." What's MR's opinion on this mess?It's probably statistically more likely that someone would get hit by lightning than steal and eat a baby. What's your point? Since when does the law revolve around how "likely" a crime is. | /r/MensRights | 04/12/10 07:20 AM |
| 2 | On the subject of banning trolls & infiltratorsWell I was referring to men who come to this subreddit just to call women "sluts" and "whores". But yeah, there is plenty of misandry in the comments here too | /r/MensRights | 02/12/10 12:23 PM |
| 1 | On the subject of banning trolls & infiltratorsI mean, I can imagine it's really hard to control comments like these. Especially when they're so eager to cause trouble that they use throwaway accounts. It's no secret that we live in a misogynist world, but I feel like MRA is a place where the regular members strive to be fair, mature, and discuss issues that don't get much attention in the media. But of course there are going to be idiots who come just to start trouble — these people exist, although maybe not as extreme, in every subreddit —… | /r/MensRights | 02/12/10 06:52 AM |
| 4 | False rape claim woman is jailed ;From Chelmsford Weekly News)I see what you're saying, but keep in mind she almost put a man in jail for a VERY long time. And as the Judge said, it was only when she was getting caught in her lies that she pleaded guilty. She was totally ready to fuck this man up for life. I think that kind of behavior needs at MINIMUM 3 years. 18 months is a slap on the wrist, and doesn't properly discourage this kind of crime. | /r/MensRights | 01/12/10 02:56 AM |
| 1 | "I accused my husband of rape. I was locked up; and he was set free." What's MR's opinion on this mess?If you had to go to jail for a very long time because an ex-girlfriend was just mad at you, you'd feel differently. | /r/MensRights | 30/11/10 02:02 AM |
| 1 | "I accused my husband of rape. I was locked up; and he was set free." What's MR's opinion on this mess?And regarding the unlevel playing field of rape, remember that many women accuse men of rape for vengeance. I know it's not the same as a woman raping a man, but sometimes the consequences are equally serious. And the women who do this are taking advantage of a gender biased justice system. | /r/MensRights | 28/11/10 09:58 PM |
| 1 | "I accused my husband of rape. I was locked up; and he was set free." What's MR's opinion on this mess?I see what you mean about lack of evidence, but this just goes back to the problem. If a man has an abusive wife (and it happens quite often) just imagine the kind of evidence he would have to present to receive justice. Until this sort of gender-based biasing leaves the justice system, it's impossible for the law to consider this kind of circumstantial evidence without seeing it through that obscured lens. Sadly this means that innocent men are going to suffer for false crimes. And that's why t… | /r/MensRights | 28/11/10 09:42 PM |

I didn't link you to the TSA, and I don't believe there is a connection there. I was only trying to elaborate that circumstantial evidence is not enough to convict, and gave examples in today's society. Of course the woman's testimony matters, and I agree that they should look for evidence upon hearing it. But to receive consequences for his actions prior to the detection of any hard evidence is Wrong. If I told the police that my friend… | /r/MensRights | 28/11/10 06:45 AM |

What's MR's opinion on this mess?"it would take a complete moron not to see the abuse going on" I'm sorry, but I'm getting a little upset here. The law revolves around hard evidence, not around appearances. A woman appearing to be "visibly shaken, unable to function, totally emotionally mindfucked" is not hard evidence, and there exists the possibility that it could be a falsehood. Would you arrest a man for murder because he looks like a murderer? Would you arrest a Muslim for terrorism because he looks like a terrorist? This … | /r/MensRights | 27/11/10 02:05 PM |
