| 2 | Billboard sign in Manchester UKHell yes we are. Men; do not let anyone convince you otherwise. You have power to influence the world around you. More than that, you have the power to create whatever situations you want to find yourself in. Think about that; if you aren't happy where you are, you can ( and should ) change that, but not only that, you are inherently capable of it via whatever means are necessary. You're goddamn right I'm dangerous, and I'll use that power against any who would do harm to me and mine. Forget tha… | /r/MensRights | 22/01/20 05:53 AM |

I'm glad it's being played out in public though; if it's to be done, let it serve as a warning to others at least. Too many of these stories are kept away from prying eyes for fear of embarrassment. Little hope this will end up the same way. For what it's worth; I do hope I'm wrong. I hope they enjoy a long and happy life together. Not because I have some royal obsession, but because I wouldn't wish what I suspect coming on anyone. | /r/MensRights | 10/01/20 03:26 AM |
| 5 | Get what you need.Pretty much this. The moment we start pursuing equality of outcome, we've lost. We're chasing our own tails. What needs to be acknowledged is that people start of at different places. Folks have different strengths and weaknesses, and they need to work with those constraints to achieve their successes. To put it another way, it's not anyone else's job to fix my weaknesses, just as it's not my job to use my strengths for other's advances. | /r/MensRights | 01/01/20 12:59 AM |
| 19 | Ok, can someone explain to me the point of this sub, I’d like to know what problems we have. Because I’m a man and I don’t feel mistreated.-Men lack the same reproductive freedoms that women have. -Men lack the bodily autonomy rights women have -Men are treated as expendable -Dads are abused by the family court system. -Men are shamed for their sexuality -Men often have to prove their innocence when accused of sex crimes Most men, by the age of 40, will experience at least one of the above, if not several. These are all significant issues that no one takes seriously until it happens to them. | /r/MensRights | 27/12/19 07:07 PM |

They will do and say anything to arrive at this outcome. Don't give them the satisfaction. Give them kindness for every angry response they give you ( or sarcasm, which is my personal choice ).

| 11 | I'm Pro Choice but...That's biology for you. I am incredibly resistant to forcing women to carry to term against their wishes; that violates basic bodily autonomy ( lacking scientific consensus on when life begins, mind you ). I will never advocate for a man to be able to force a woman to carry to term. | /r/MensRights | 12/12/19 05:02 PM |
| 13 | I'm Pro Choice but...You've got a whole lot of concepts wrapped up in a single label here. Let's try to pull them apart. I'm not "pro choice" so much as "anti-government". Pro-life presumes that the government knows best in an instance where the science is far from settled. So my natural default state is to want the rights retained by the individual and not the government. Mind you, I find abortion detestable and would never choose that option personally, BUT I support individual rights over that of the government. … | /r/MensRights | 12/12/19 01:59 PM |

| 1 | MGTOW is a dead end. We need something new and Pro-Male. (short video)I do fault individuals for fucked up behavior, but not groups. If a group demonstrates a fucked up behavior it means it's enabled by society, so getting outraged by it is pointless; fix the underlying mechanics which allowed the behavior and move on. My approach with individuals is different; someone demonstrates fucked up behavior, they're cut loose. I don't have time or energy to deal with their nonsense. | /r/MensRights | 02/12/19 05:42 PM |

| 42 | American Psychological Association: Masculinity Is a Mental DisorderI take heart in the fact that no matter how much the SJWs rail against biology, biology will always win. They can try to redefine masculinity however they wish, but men will continue being men. For which everyone should be thankful; competitiveness, aggression, stoicism and dominance are what created a society safe enough for them to criticize these very traits. | /r/MensRights | 25/11/19 04:33 PM |

| 2 | fat shaming should be no different -socially- than size shaming/penis size shamingThere are a few aspects to this; bullying someone based on a physical characteristic, be it one you can control or one you can't, is a stupid thing to do. That said, you like what you like when it comes to sexual partners; just as I have a preference for thin/athletic women, I think it's entirely justified for women to prefer men with a certain penis length ( or height, if it comes down to it ). Who am I to dictate to them what they find attractive? | /r/MensRights | 18/11/19 04:02 PM |

That you are even asking that question highlights just how ignorant you are of what your life would be like after divorce. I highly recommend couples/family therapy before you go the divorce route.

I don't date anymore, and while this dynamic certainly isn't a large factor in the equation, it IS part of it.

Perhaps these things are connected...Ah, it makes sense there's more to this than first blush. I don't agree with some of the perspectives listed in this ( specifically that of the juror's opinion that custody should not be awarded based on his living condition ), but I can see how some of that would change the landscape a bit. | /r/MensRights | 08/11/19 09:20 PM |
| 1 | Female mating logicIt is his fault. He chose to give her those gifts. How could it be anyone else's BUT his fault? | /r/MensRights | 08/11/19 07:27 PM |
| 1 | Female mating logicWhy shouldn't we victim blame? Maybe if more of these stories are told, and more blame is placed where it belongs, people would learn from the mistakes of others. I could have used that. See, I was very much like this guy. I loved someone so was willing to do anything for them, and did. I sacrificed of myself without a care. It was wrong and I was an idiot for doing so, and in retrospect I dearly wished I could see examples of that behavior and where it leads before I made my own mistakes. | /r/MensRights | 08/11/19 06:48 PM |
| 0 | Female mating logicLife isn't fair, and expecting others to respect "fairness" is why so many men get bitten in the ass. Fairness has nothing to do with anything, so let's throw that out the window. He gave her gifts. He sacrificed a lot to give her gifts. In my opinion he shouldn't have, but he did, and he has no standing to demand anything from anyone. That's the trade-off, and why this kind of dedication is wholly inappropriate. She may be a horrible person, but he was an idiot. | /r/MensRights | 08/11/19 06:41 PM |
| 2 | Female mating logicShe is under no obligation to do so, nor should she be. If she chooses to do so, that's on her ( and it would be an honorable decision, imo ). The take away here, for men, is to not give so much of yourself to a partner...ever. The only people that deserve that kind of dedication is your children, and even then you have to still take care of yourself as well. | /r/MensRights | 08/11/19 06:24 PM |
| 2 | Female mating logicGuess I'll be the asshole here; It's ok to lose feelings for someone. No one should stay with someone only out of a sense of obligation. Without knowing more about the situation I wouldn't want to say more, but the entire setup seems suspicious on both ends of the equation; she used him, but it sounds as though he might have been using her too. | /r/MensRights | 08/11/19 05:54 PM |

That's really the heart of the problem with the trans movement; it's simply too much work to try to keep track of all the nonsense.

| 2 | What do you think of the term, man-flu?Yup. I've had the flu once in my life, and I couldn't even get up to change the channel on the TV ( to give you an idea of when that was ), but I was so uncomfortable that I couldn't fall asleep, plus I was puking every half an hour. Various ailments folks call "colds" can be a minor inconvenience to "worst hang over of your life", but none of them hold a candle to a real flu. | /r/MensRights | 30/10/19 05:10 AM |
| 10 | What do you think of the term, man-flu?In a very real sense you just described the so-called "male privilege".

| 3 | Thank you Michelle, very cool (/s)Irrelevant to my point, particularly since IQ is a sliding scale that's adjusted every few years to keep the average at 100. More; IQ is a measurement of potential, not actual or applied, intellect. Almost by definition, applied intellect is going to be lower than their potential.

Prayer is like meditation in that both help you understand concepts that are causing you stress, or are otherwise eluding you. Helps center you, bring your attention back to self so you might better apprehend your immediate world. I base on that on descriptions f… | /r/MensRights | 17/08/19 02:58 AM |

I'm agnostic myself ( don't know, don't care to be more accurate ), but over the years I've seen how beneficial religion can be to others and I have to admit; I'm envious of the peace they find. Oh, and praying isn't useless. It's a form of meditation, and has quite a few health benefits associated with it. | /r/MensRights | 16/08/19 07:47 PM |
| 16 | My story as a very recent ex-feministThe first step is recognizing the problem. Realizing that you could be better and owning your past mistakes. Regardless of anything else, that's something worthy of your respect. Don't be afraid to forgive yourself when the time comes, don't hold that back from yourself.

| 6 | Honest question: If, according to the feminist narrative, there is something inherently "bad" and "toxic" in Male nature, why are they so hostile towards men that voluntarily decide not to engage in any kind of romantic relationship with women, let alone get married?Because most of the vocal feminists are narcissists. They need you to acknowledge their existence and power. Choosing as you do inherently implies that they, and women in general, have no implicit power over you. They feel entitled to that power, and by walking away you are depriving them of that. There's a lot of women who find this offensive as well, not just feminists. There's a bit more to this, but that's the basic reaction. | /r/MensRights | 15/08/19 01:32 PM |

I bring that up to highlight, in part, how you need to be phrasing your requests. If anyone in the legal system gets the impression you are doing this for you and not your kids, you aren't going to get anywhere.

You aren't supposed to be able to change a CO without a significant change in circumstance, but a lot of judges and mediators tend to push their luck.

There's been MGTOW for a long time, and it's not solely about women; it's about disconnecting from anything which might control you and your decisions.

What tips the balance in "favor" of women is the fact that while a guy can impregnate 10 women at once, women can only have one child at a time.

| 4 | I don't think the Egard ad adequately addresses the Gilette one at allThe fact that it didn't answer Gilette's ad was by design, and it was a good move. The tone of Egard's was all positive. In order to address Gilette more directly, they'd have to have introduced some negativity in the ad which would have spoiled the generally positive narrative they were telling. This is actually a technique you learn when dealing with toxic personalities; you don't engage them point for point, you instead refute the underlying message by promoting the positive. They did good. | /r/MensRights | 25/01/19 11:19 PM |

The problem is a lot of folks who read about false accusations lose faith in authority figures handling any accusation fairly.

That may play well with others in the "Outrage Possy", but rational people shy away from it, and by extension the subject you appear to be advocating for.

Unjust is appropriate here, as they were denied many basic human rights. Society was denying them these rights, and society is made up of both genders.

Obviously they do, I just disagree with the argument itself. Most women I know don't dress to impress men, but to compete against other women. It's such a "thing" that they don't realize 90% of what they're doing simply isn't required for their stated goal ( attract male attention ). | /r/MensRights | 07/04/18 06:00 PM |
| 61 | The premise being that men don't literally do exactly this and more already slaving their lives away to gain the excess income to spend on women's desires...Women tell us they make themselves look nice for us, and that it can be oppressive to always have to look nice. This isn't precisely true. Female standards for beauty are far higher than male standards, and in my experience women tend to aim for the female standard. Mind you, I'm speaking about groups here, not individuals ( I hope that's obvious ). All women really have to do is not be a pig about it.

| 3 | Woman publicly shames husband with viral "Dear husband, I need more help letter"When you hear the "men need to share their emotions more", what they should actually be saying is, "men need to share their approved emotions more". In my experience, no one wants to hear anger, fear or sadness from men ( this includes therapists too, unfortunately ) and they only really want to hear from men if it's going to impact their ability to provide for others. Kind of a bleak perspective, but that's been my experience. | /r/MensRights | 06/04/18 03:42 PM |

Ah, so controlling mom doesn't want "help", she wants dad to do everything precisely as she tells him. Maybe I'm over reacting to the letter.

| 5 | Why do so many MRAs/Anti-feminists police how masculine/non-masculine men are?Possibly because one of the names you threw around was Peterson, who if that's what you're getting off of him it makes the rest of your list suspect. | /r/MensRights | 24/02/18 07:01 PM |
| 2 | Why do so many MRAs/Anti-feminists police how masculine/non-masculine men are?So you don't see how "tone policing" is nothing more than a method to exert control over the conversation, right? Let me ask you this; what would make you happy here? If everyone stopped saying the words that hurt your feelings, right? That's ultimately what you're advocating for, so how is that not trying to tell people what to do? | /r/MensRights | 24/02/18 06:59 PM |
| 2 | Why do so many MRAs/Anti-feminists police how masculine/non-masculine men are?I see, so you want to control who says what. | /r/MensRights | 24/02/18 06:53 PM |
| 3 | Why do so many MRAs/Anti-feminists police how masculine/non-masculine men are?This entire tantrum of yours is an attempt to tell people what to do. Are you really that ignorant? | /r/MensRights | 24/02/18 06:51 PM |
| 0 | Why do so many MRAs/Anti-feminists police how masculine/non-masculine men are?That was my take away too. | /r/MensRights | 24/02/18 06:49 PM |
| 1 | Why do so many MRAs/Anti-feminists police how masculine/non-masculine men are?Then don't listen to them? | /r/MensRights | 24/02/18 06:49 PM |
| 3 | Why do so many MRAs/Anti-feminists police how masculine/non-masculine men are?You are the first person I've heard say "back when men were men" around here, but regardless your issues largely seem to stem from how much value random stranger's opinions. So much so that you see it everywhere, including places it simply doesn't exist. That's on you. Maybe you should work on your own self confidence and stop projecting your own insecurities. | /r/MensRights | 24/02/18 06:44 PM |
| 3 | Why do so many MRAs/Anti-feminists police how masculine/non-masculine men are?So? That works for some people. Quite a few really, both men and women. That doesn't mean that's the only way to be. Who are you to tell others what works for them? | /r/MensRights | 24/02/18 06:36 PM |
| 4 | Why do so many MRAs/Anti-feminists police how masculine/non-masculine men are?Is that really your only example? Because there are 5 comments total there, one of which being a bot. I rather think there are more MRAs than 5, so your accusation of "so many" falls a bit flat. Be however you want, no one cares. | /r/MensRights | 24/02/18 06:29 PM |
| 1 | Why not support Islam?I'm not entirely convinced that's it. Seems awfully convoluted if that's the case. | /r/MensRights | 24/02/18 06:53 AM |
| 12 | Why not support Islam?The goal isn't male supremacy, but rather equality. Hence, Islam is just as flawed as feminism. Speaking of which, I still haven't figured out feminism's support of Islam. Makes no damn sense to me. | /r/MensRights | 24/02/18 06:38 AM |
| 41 | California State ConscriptionIt's cool, I can identify as female if they come knocking. This being California, they have to respect that. | /r/MensRights | 24/02/18 12:20 AM |
| 15 | 14 signs of emotional abuse: From controlling your clothes to making you feel guilty - therapist reveals the subtle red flags and how to protect yourself. Article assumes men are the abusers women are the victims.Wow, that describes my ex to a T. | /r/MensRights | 22/02/18 09:04 PM |
| 33 | Men over 50 working: 5.3million. Women over 50 working: 4.7million (even though the title says 4.2). What is forcing the women? Equality?That's the patriarchy for you. | /r/MensRights | 22/02/18 02:13 PM |
| 23 | Any ideas for male inequality?Circumcision and conscription are two clear cut situations, despite the religious overtones with the first. I'd go with those. If you do some digging you can find some great data about legal bias against men during sentencing and ( obviously ) family law, so that's always a great option as well. Really depends on the medium you are using to convey whatever point you try to make. | /r/MensRights | 22/02/18 05:35 AM |
| 1 | Good News Everybody!!! There is a comment thread in askreddit that has been gilded twice and is very positive about MR issues...Link is working fine, your phrasing "triggered" a memory ( of sorts ). Don't mind me, I'll just be binge watching Futurama ( again ). | /r/MensRights | 21/02/18 10:57 PM |

| 3 | Feminists are not the enemy. It isn't us vs. them, it's us with them.Were you talking about some previous iteration of feminism, I might agree with you. The problem is that current feminism means "victim-hood", and in order for that narrative to be successful they need an aggressor. Enter men. I will not work with any group that perpetuates such nonsense as the "wage gap" or "rape culture". I have limited patience for any group that doesn't call out their own bad apples. This means I will never work with modern feminism. | /r/MensRights | 21/02/18 01:58 AM |
