I wasnt saying per patient basis. From what I heard from my cousin he got recruited with a higher salary. He could be lying, but that's what I was told. Edit: so they try harder and get paid more, but if they do more work they don't get paid more? To me those seem very similar, though it wasn't the case I was originally trying to make.

They also can do more physically therefore they get paid more (or so I've heard). My cousin went into nursing for that exact reason.

So, the fact that she is trying to rectify her preconceived notions and ask for guidance to be a more fair and equal person to men means she's a "whiney female"? I don't get your point at all.

Someone likes something therefore they're sexually attracted to it? Anything in the world can have pornographic variations (what is it, rule 34?)... You really don't have a point. Except making the point that you're good at drawing bad conclusions.

Honest question: I've talked to a few men about this and most times I get some response about them being less of a "man" if they were to take those... So is it reasonable to assume sometimes it is not only feminists but men as well that block these things?

What feminist education? Haha, Im an accountant. Anyway, the correct word in relation to marriage completely depends on when and where you're talking about. You are probably right for a certain time period, but there was injustice. That debt repayment you speak of was pretty nul and void if the female did anything outside the social norms. You can't argue that there was no injustice because there was. What I was trying to say was that there is a switch going on; now that injustice is switching o…

You are a being a grump! I'm not dissembling, but taking the time to argue a ridiculous point that has nothing to do with the question at hand. Was talking about control, my point was still valid.
/r/MensRights14/08/12 01:38 AM
1

You're missing the big picture I think. Regardless of if I say "ward" or "ownership", it still relates to controlling to some degree. Anyway, it completely depends on how you see it. When you're talking about the long, LONG history of marriage, you can't say one word that represents it perfectly. Over the many different periods, countries, cultures, etc, I'm sure it was different in each one. Some saw it as ownership, wards, property, investment, whatever. It all depends. So, regardless of the w…
/r/MensRights13/08/12 08:45 PM

Yeah, it was originally about ownership. Marriage was the ceremony of passing the female from the ownership of her father to the ownership of the husband. Marriage was usually for political/ personal ties of the parents and there was usually very little choice. So yeah, up until about the early 1900's I'd wager, it was pretty much controlling for women. It's definitely swung the other direction in response to those long-standing issues. That's happened for a few things (Ex: waited taxes for abor…

Erm ... because I don't want to do that to a another person and I don't want children at all? I've already agreed above that men should have the option of financially protecting themselves if they don't want the child and the female does. What's the incentive? Being a decent human being, caring about other peoples feelings and lives, etc. Edit: Additionally, sometimes things happen.

Depends on if you get pulled into a meeting, your phone dies, you forget your phone, you forget the package at home, etc. It's a few steps to remeber to get it right. I tried to take mine in the morning but it sucked having to wake up at 8 on a saturday and sunday to do it.

Very very true. I have a friend who just takes it "when she wakes up". Instead of the 12 noon on the dot I do. That is one of the reasons birth control can fail eaily. 1. It's hard to remember a lot of the time and 2. a lot of people get bad information about how to take it.
/r/MensRights02/08/12 06:01 PM

Agreed. I Sometimes forget that men have to be responsible for children they don't want because the female does. Mostly because in my mind that doesn't make sense.

Either way. Both should bring protection.

Point is, everyone should take responsability for their own birth control. Period.

They have to pay for the hormonal birth control ... they don't ask you to pay for it right? Anyway, any girl I've talked to has them ready at their bedside usually. Shouldn't be the mans responsability. Sorry you've had shitty experiences with that.

I think both genders should have them. Also, you never take a lady back to your house so you have to keep them on your person? I always assume that women have them at home, and men do as well. Keep them in your car? I dont know. I don't think they should have to be in charge of that especially when most have to remember to take a pill at the same time ever day... Both should have them just in case. Also, some ladies don't take wallets and just shove their card in their bra. And female pockets ar…

In a perfect world, both people would decide on an option and pay for it. For example, if my boyfriend and I were to realize there was a baby on the way I would hope that we would discuss, make a decision and go half and half. To me, that's fair because we both engaged in sex, something went wrong, and we should be there for each other. I'm assuming OP is referring to random hook-ups? Because in an actual relationship I can't see the male looking at the female and saying, "Well, that's on you" a…

Except when birth control fails for a myriad of reasons. Additionally, yes, some people DO have to depend on condoms. Not all women can take those birth control methods because of hormone imbalances. Both genders should take the responsibility of condoms.

I don't feel like organizations have to do both though. It's ok to specialize. I would be interested if there are ones catering to boys, but this one isn't in the wrong by catering to girls.

I think that wouldn't quite work seeing as if she signed it and then was raped it would be horrible... Or are you saying after the sex she signs it? It seems like the timing would never work for either. And are you talking blanket consent every time you have sex or each time? Seems to be logistically impractical...

Are you sure it's a feminist specialty group or just a group devoted to females? Would you take issue with an organization only catering to boys? Anyway, there are problems with both genders in developing worlds. To me specializing in one and focusing on that isn't a bad thing if that's what you want to do. Organizations like war child focus more specifically on child soldiers which are predominantly boys. Damn these groups focusing on one thing rather than diversifying and doing a shitty job at…

Thanks for explaining that. I guess everyone has to think about those types of things at night, not just women. Such an interesting perspective that's not normally heard... The leering in the toilets is something that I never thought of or experienced; however, makes a lot of sense and that would be frickin' terrifying. Guess each gender has their own issues that they should respectively be aware of.

Firstly, I don't feel like the title you've put on your post matches the content. That's not what it was saying. It was saying that men don't constantly think about sexual assault when out, not that it never happens. To be honest, this activity was done in one of my classes and the exact same thing happened (where no men had anything to say) so I can't really dispute the reality of it. However, I'm interested to see what men who actually spend time thinking about this issue and discussing it act…

Funny thing women do the exact same thing. It's not a "man" thing, it's a lying partner thing, regardless of gender. It's always sad when articles have to point out a single gender to get attention.

I have a feeling it depends on the woman/child and the person/kidney stone. Like if you're pushing a 11 lb child out of your vagina for 3 days and have to spend days in the hospital recuperating and having follow up surgeries maybe not. If you're like my mon who had me in 10 minutes, maybe its easier. All depends.

Oops, I won't delete my other one, but I see your last comment was actually about your previous comment not the original post. Anyway, the point is, people whining to you is probably them voicing their legit concerns and posting a clever looking image isn't the same as participating in a discussion and bringing people 'round to logic that way. Probably why /r/feminism didn't like it.

Ohhhh, so when you posted this with the title specifically citing /r/feminism whining about offenses, you were hoping /r/mensrights would whine and your point would whine and your point would be proven? Gotcha.
/r/MensRights30/06/12 02:26 PM

Again, what you think is whining is people looking for support. Its a great place for men to talk openly about their feelings without beig told to "man up" or that its incorrect. The nice thing about subreddits is that they can be anything they want to be and the members shape what the community is about. Sounds to me like you're whining because the subreddit isn't what you think it should be. See? Something is always whining to someone.

The top comment was this though: I think the big reason that it gets frustrating for us trying to explain it to the average guy is this- Females are taught, from an early age, that every guy is a potential rapist. We are taught to fear. The average guy ISN'T a rapist, and doesn't get rapey thinking. That's a good thing. But what we end up with is the average guy listening to the once scared but now angry female over and over again. Raising a generation of girls that is empowered instead of scare…

I can kind of see both sides to the issue. One is that it's anonymous for a reason, mostly because the community has so many stereotypes associated with it. But, the safety of community members is a serious issue. Also, fetlife allows users to change their screen names once every month so it is easy to get around the system if someone "names" someone else. To me it's like any issue: be careful. It's not the websites fault that bad people use it, or that misunderstandings arise. Additionally, due…

I would be so happy if men had a reliable form of birth control other than condoms. I'm all for more protection against pregnancy, especially since my body rejects most birth controls due to other health problems. In my opinion, it takes nothing away from women; it just makes the whole act of having sex more responsible for both parties. I have heard the oft-cited complaint that women are seen as the gate-keepers of sex, and that it demotes women to sex-objects. However, if men had control over …

Whoa! Rough sex does not equate to rape fantasies. There is such a variable culture about power play in the world that generalizing it like that would most definitely elicit a "fuck you"! My goodness! Some women/men prefer rough, consensual non-consent, bondage, play that requires safe words etc. They can be equivalent but are not always. I would be careful with that one! I feel like equating rough sex with rape fantasies actually may contribute to a misunderstanding about enjoying rough sex.

My brother was uncircumcised and eventually ran into health issues because the foreskin was too small so he couldn't have an erection without it being painful.

"At least it is a choice a woman can make on her own and it isn't forced." (sorry, I don't know how to do that fancy quote from another response thing :S). Men don't have the choice, and that isn't right! I said above that it wasn't comparable in that way, because one is a choice and one isn't!

Female offenses are rarely talked about, which is a shame. There is a culture of thinking that females cannot commit crimes like this, even though they very much can. Also, when stories about female abuse surface they are usually laughed at because it's funny for some reason, even though to the victims it's horrible regardless of gender... Sad realities.

The male birth control pill would give greater reproductive responsibility to males which is a great thing! Also, some women can't be on the pill because of blood pressure, hormonal imbalances, etc. Therefore, if males can also have the pill then it will increase the possibility that at least one partner has this protection. Condoms should always be used, however, with non-tested partners.

If certain laws go through she may not be able to have an abortion or access to birth control in the US! Either way the law is perpetuating the concept that men have no responsibility to the child if a pregnancy occurs which seems like an even further step back from equality!

But 2X represents many diverse women, so it would make sense, just like in this community, that there are differing opinions, posts, comments, etc.

Maybe also calling them "femnazis" won't help either. Support the girl who posted for sure! She is trending in the right direction! But cutting down the others probably won't help them see your side ...

I have a feeling that if many women didn't have abortions (for whatever reason), we would have a lot more deadbeat moms and dads for having children they didn't want! Birth control is the responsibility of both partners, so both or none should be considered deadbeat. Preferably none referred to by that term.

You can be stable, loving, happy and successful while also being into BDSM. Sexual preferences have no bearing on being a good mother. That's just shameful ... on you.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
