In any situation i've been in if there are disproportionately long lines between the men's and women's lines, it is the women's line that is longest. I simply don't know what you're talking about or why you would even care about this. This is toddler behavior, bro.

Haven't been in the internet dating market for a long time, but I think most women wouldn't want a 2nd date to be at the man's house. I wouldn't judge a woman who pivoted away from that one.

I could see that being kinda funny, too, in the right context. You'd be correct in saying there would be outrage in the opposite scenario (guys shooting girls), and we can talk about that double standard, but I think this subreddit too often tries to point out double standards in the opposite way. Instead of "it's never funny for anyone of any gender to make a joke about shooting someone in the genitals," let's try "in the proper comedic context, shooting someone in the genitals (guy or girl) ca…

I don't know. If I read this comic without words on the bags I might think the author is implying the horse is better at his job and that the wage gap is explained by men being better employees than women acrossed the board. I think a lot of people would think the same thing and the creator's message would go unheard.

Ok, then no cartoon should be made about anything (maybe specific individuals are fair game?) Too much generalizing.

There actually is a gap in wages. It's explained by all the horse's baggage. The cartoon is correct and useful.

I would actually disagree with that. I'm a proponent of jury nullification, so I'd absolutely consider acquitting based on a cruel or unusual punishment even if I thought the defendant committed the offense. There are many like me.

I don't see how this is on topic honestly. I only brought up parents to show I can like (love) someone, but still not want to be around them much or whatever. I have no idea what you're getting at, but my answer would be no. This discussion is about kids, though...

I like my parents, but I don't want to spend much time around them. Same goes for other people.

He did elaborate on that. But seriously how can you dislike children? You may be awkward around them, you might not want to spend time around them cuz they can get on your nerves and be stressful, you may not want any of your own, but to actively dislike them? I personally think that does make you a hateful twat.

What did I say as a fact? "a lot" is pretty general. Should we have "women should stop murdering their babies" campaigns because women are more likely to murder their babies?

Not really sure what point you're trying to make. You can't blame an entire gender for the actions of others that happen to be the same gender. Also, theft victims get "blamed" a lot. "why'd you leave the door unlocked?", "why were you at that ATM in a shady location that late at night?"

Again, this forum isn't full of people who accept the premise (or are here to debate the premise) that Obamacare is unconstitutional.

Assuming they had sex at any point after he started cheating, then he exposed her to a higher risk of STDs then she knew about. To me that's far worse, and he deserved retaliation of some sort. I would say the same things with the genders swapped.

So the women make more money, but they're being more exploited? The men enjoy the performance, but the women only tolerate the sex in exchange for money? Get your sexism out of here. Women can enjoy sex, too (even on camera). It's not the 50s.

Doesn't have to be illegal to be wrong. Laws don't dictate morality. I would feel like a piece of shit for using child support for anything but a child, don't know about you. If my finances could care for the child myself, then the support would go straight to a college fund for the kid or something.
/r/MensRights16/03/12 04:26 PM

The fact that parental surrender laws don't already exist should tell you all you need to know. It is not something people care about or even think is right when the idea's presented. I happen to think it's because men are the one's harmed exclusively (there might be some lesbian couples where a woman is on the hook I suppose). Also, women can already surrender their child after it is born with no consequences (safe-haven laws).

Right, but you probably are capable of the empathy required to want to allow women to abort unwanted pregnancies. That empathy is not returned for men to escape unwanted pregnancies because of our culture.

The worst part of stories like this is that if they were to occur in the US and most other first world countries (don't know about Zimbabwe) is that these men that were raped would owe child support to these harpies.

In principle, I agree with you 100%, but while these shitty laws against, they'd better at least be enforced equally. Do you think the prevailing opinion if this situation was flipped (the OP was a female, or a black person) would be to let businesses hire whomever they want? I don't think so. That's the problem, and that's one reason Mensrights exists. I agree though, most of the people in this /r have it wrong on this one (those that agree with the top comment telling the OP to sue and whatnot…

Yes, would you want to go to a restaurant that begrudgingly served you (because they're racist against you) and treat you shitty (shitty food, shitty service, bad attitude) while your there, or just no straight out front that they don't want you there so you can give your money to a non-racist? Basically, why would anyone, in 2011 when so many other options abound, want to go to a restaurant with owners that are racist (at all or specifically against your "kind")?

I see what you're saying and I actually agree for the most part, but many of us are just mad that a man can be spoken of in this fashion on national television, but it's unthinkable for a woman to be.

like it is simply taking people's money away from them. How is it not? You have to bend over backwards in your mind to convince yourself that it's not.

Democracy isn't about the whole country doing whatever the majority wants. Yes it is. By definition. The US was created as a constitutional republic, specifically to protect from democracy (tyranny of the majority). The only problem is, like I said earlier, the constitution is too vague, and over time has been interpreted to mean the government can do almost anything.

Slavery was considered moral 150 years ago. I don't see how that's in anyway moral, in any society. It was moral by the most educated in that society. Female circ is still legal in countries where the majority of the people support its legality and practice. 51% of people want you to donate all your money to them. Cool and moral, right?
/r/MensRights29/07/11 05:28 PM

Democracy should be undermined. That's what makes circumcision legal in the first place. It should be up to the individual, whether or not 99% of the population thinks it's OK. Democracy makes gay marriage illegal. Democracy made slavery legal.

I'm just gonna throw in an explanation I've heard, although the OP's makes sense, too. Once a video quickly gets to 300 views (or thereabouts) the counter is frozen so Youtube can verify there are no shenanigans causing the vote count to get so high so fast. The OP's answer is better, but the one I gave is one I've seen around Reddit many times (which probably makes it wrong, now that I think of it).

Not necessarily. Seeing as how men and women are different, the same choices affect them differently, and they are likely to make different choices. Let me put it this way. If the existence of McDonald's was proven to lower the life expectancy of anyone who ate there regularly by 1 year, and it turned out that a man is more likely to eat there regularly than a woman by a 2:1 margin, then we would expect men to be affected disproportionately.

Whether they're traumatized or not is irrelevant. The issue is whether or not we should be performing permanent cosmetic surgeries on infants.

I agree, somewhat.

Women, by and large, still experience more oppression than men, and that's just the way it is. That is not a fact, and this right here shows your sexism. I can't think of many ways in a first world country that women have it worse. There is no wage gap. That's been proven. Please read this if you still think there is one. Title IX fucked men over. Circumcision is illegal for women protecting them, while male circumcision continues. Women have all the power in most divorce cases and custody cases…

So add it to your 'list', then. Are you really here just to dispute everything people say? That's what concern trolls do. Sentencing disparity is absolutely a legal issue BTW since it is ILLEGAL to do so based on sex, and the law is not being followed. It's the same thing with child custody cases by your logic, that that wouldn't be a legal issue either because the letter of the law doesn't say that the default parent is the mother.

Women get in more accidents per mile driven (5.7 accidents per million miles to 5.1), but men are involved in more high speed/alcohol related accidents which are by far the most costly.

You are correct that women get in more accidents per mile driven (5.7 accidents per million miles driven: 5.1 accidents per million miles driven), but you are incorrect that the accident cost per distance driven is higher for women. Men get in fewer accidents but their accidents are more likely to involve high speeds/alcohol/death/severe injuries. Men cost more to insure because they get into more of these types of c…

The states with low abortion rates are all states who impose restrictions on abortion and abortion clinics - the states with higher are more open, and women who can afford to actually cross state lines for abortions. There's no evidence to support this, really. Just because a state has fewer abortions doesn't mean it's because of lack of access. It could be cultural, you know, red states are more religious. It's the whole correlation vs. causality thing.

Read my first sentence. I'm glad you came here. I'm just saying I'd post somewhere else, too.

I have no issue with you posting this here in mensrights. I would just suggest posting it somewhere else, too. I think there's a relationship advice subreddit or something. I don't know, just thought since only 5 people have responded in 4 hours you might want to get more people responding. Sorry, I have no advice to give to you on this. When people are in a shitty relationship, but can't see it, or are tolerant of it, in my experience, there is nothing you can do about it. Hopefully someone els…

I second this. I talk to my wife about these issues from time to time and she just shuts down the conversation and tells me I hate women. The best example I can think of is men being falsely accused of rape. If I bring up this issue she gets angry and thinks I only care about men. When really false rape claims need to stop to protect women who are actually raped. They should never have to be questioned or second-guessed.

I'm new to /r/mensrights and I have a few questions. I've always thought the child support system was unjust and needed to be fixed, but never thought about what it should be like. I'm thinking the amount should be capped at some arbitrary value, say like 1500 a month. Theoretically the primary custody parent should be able to take care of themselves and only need money for things like childcare and then food and clothes for the baby. I don't understand why the amount of child support would be d…

Probably for the same reason there are a lot of men out there that are still surprised to learn that women exist who have high sex drives. I've never met a man that wasn't aware of this, but I have met men that were aware, and then thought less of those women as sluts/whores or whatever. So I do agree with your last sentence.

You're probably right. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt.

I just want to say that I've read through a lot those women's comments and I'm a little annoyed by something. They all seem to be pretty mature women (I'd guess most are 25 and over (don't really know though)) and they seem to be just now realizing that "sometimes men don't want sex." I guess it's good that they learned that, but why did it take so long. I gess r/mensrights has a lot of work to do.

Even amongst many progressives, these assumptions are deeply seated. What did she mean by this? Why bring politics into this?

Can someone do a tl;dr for this? i don't have time to watch, but if it is actually interesting I can make time.

She said things like this: This is a fine question don't stress that I will take offence to it. It was a stupid choice admittedly, though it helped that he lied and said his girlfriend cheated on him, and that I have no loyalty ties to her. I don't know why I did it. As passive as I am, I also like to take risks and tempt fate. And hey, I hadn't gotten any sexual anything in a while, girls have needs too. I agree this is rape if her original statement in her first post is true. I'm just skeptica…

I posted that around because (as you know) once an article has 100s of comments/upvotes it is really hard to draw attention to any sort of other comments. If I just posted it once it would be at the bottom, and no one would read it. If you read my opening comment (which you did) it says What I'm mad about is how every single person lined up behind her saying it was obviously rape, even though she herself is conflicted. I think she would know best. That was my main point. All of these people givi…

Not intent. Just think she's a troll making up a story for attention or something. Just my opinion that someone who is actually raped wouldn't do an AMA of this nature.

This is a quote from her. This is a fine question don't stress that I will take offence to it. It was a stupid choice admittedly, though it helped that he lied and said his girlfriend cheated on him, and that I have no loyalty ties to her. I don't know why I did it. As passive as I am, I also like to take risks and tempt fate. And hey, I hadn't gotten any sexual anything in a while, girls have needs too. This is the part that pissed me off the most. I think she's a troll, too, but what do I know…

Did you read any of her replies to people? This is a fine question don't stress that I will take offence to it.

I think this might not be rape. What I'm mad about is how every single person lined up behind her saying it was obviously rape, even though she herself is conflicted. I think she would know best. Am I wrong?

There needs to be a stronger counter-acting to feminists. My personal belief is that feminists have won over the last 50 years or whatever, and society/gov't have over-corrected to where women have more rights than men. Basically, I think feminists aren't for equal rights. Men's rights activists are for equal rights. (I see no difference between men's rights activists and equal rights activists.)
