Can anyone provide links showing how major feminist groups in the UK and EU have backed and supported this measure? I'm trying to shore up an argument elsewhere, but I've not been able to find many articles which support my claim.

Wait. So, rich white women engage in sexual tourism with poorer black men and somehow the men are taking emotional advantage of the women? Also, sexual tourism is hella bad, unless it's women engaging in it. Then it's empowering! Except, it's not empowering, because they're being taken advantage of. For fuck's sake.

Really. I'm not. He doesn't have a moral case. And, if it were a just world, he wouldn't have a legal case, either.

Yeah. I'm not talking about legality, here. Plenty of things are illegal which shouldn't be. I'm talking about morality. You don't have the right to force yourself on other people if you're not wanted. The obvious solution is to allow people (all people) to associate freely.

Meh. He doesn't deserve to be mocked for this, but he doesn't have a case, and this isn't a men's rights issue. People have a right to decide whom they wish to live with. Nobody has the right to force another person to live with someone they don't wish to. It's pretty simple. Someone should explain that to him.

What a weird culture we live in when our first impulse is to apologize for making other people uncomfortable after they say the most vile, sexist things right to our faces. This guy was polite, and he proved himself to be a class act in his response, but it's fair to note that a much angrier response would have also been justified.

Yeah, except, that's not what she's saying. She's saying that "she was drunk and flirtatious" can't be used as a defense if the sex was indeed non-consensual. And she's 100% correct. Just as a mugger cannot use the defense that a person was drunk and waving $100 bills around when he mugged him. Don't conflate non-consent and consent/regret. They are two very different things.

Just because you don't understand the connection doesn't mean there isn't one. The point has nothing to do with Jazz music. It has everything to do with how one group of incredibly privileged people did nothing even when every opportunity was afforded to them versus a group of extremely unprivileged people invented a genre of music when they had nearly zero opportunity afforded to them. It's a counter-argument to the "privilege" trope.

Just tell them this: In an era of some of the worst oppression this country has ever seen, black men were still able to invent a style of music (Jazz and Blues) which permanently and drastically changed the landscape of music, forever. Some of the most beautiful pieces of music to ever be composed came out of the African-American community in an era when black men were not allowed any rights except to exist. Contrast that with upper-middle class and rich white women at the time who had every con…

The only way to fix a problem like this is to stop subsidizing gyms with public money. If it's a private facility, then people can vote with their dollars. If one facility discriminates blatantly against on group of people, another facility will be happy to swoop in and fill the resulting demand. Among any basic human right is the right to not associate with people you do not wish to associate with. The problem with public facilities is, the group with the most political power makes the rules re…

This is a complete non issue and has fuck all to do with "men's rights." I'm seeing more and more of this kind of petulance upvoted every day in this subreddit when there are real issues to be discussed....you know, like divorce laws and VAWA.

Let's not let your hatred for those ideologies conflate the two. You assume way too much. Feminism ISN'T the logical outcome of it; it's a perverted outcome of a need to be recognized as equal and be given equal opportunities. It absolutely is the logical outcome of it. When people are able to use the state to sponsor their pet ideologies, they will do so. Not everything in Feminism is terrible. There are a few worth saving. I never implied otherwise.

I'm sad that Feminism has polluted Marxism and Socialism. As someone extremely "left" I read "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs" to celebrate the DIFFERENCES in everyone, not their equality. As someone who grew up in an extremely "left" household, I recognized the phrase "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs," as murderous tripe the first time I ever laid eyes upon it. Feminism has not "polluted Marxism and Socialism." Feminism is th…

Words mean things. People get into a great deal of rhetorical trouble because they basically don't understand what they are saying. Words also affect how ideas are formed and processed. That's why it's important to stick to correct usage. The_Patriarchy is absolutely correct to point this out.

I carry around a 5.11 shoulder bag. It looks like a purse from a distance. I had a guy say something like, "Nice purse, bro" to me at Target once. I walked over and told him that I carried this bag with me in Afghanistan. It held a sidearm, 6 clips of ammunition and a tourniquet in case I had to work on someone who just had their arm or leg blown off. I then asked if he had any further issue with my "purse." Always confront these people. Don't let people get away with rude behavior.

Why is wanting an objective viewpoint with regards to politics immature? Because the OP wasn't proselytizing or trying to convert anyone. He simply mentioned his political ideology and was immediately jumped on by several people. Because each person's experience with how he/she interact with the world and therefore, how he/she objectively views the world will be distorted or refined by their individual ideological lens.

It matters because everyone views these issues through their own lens. Why is this so hard to understand? He's expressing his opinion and his understanding of the issues through his own experiences.

Well, that's the beauty of micro-funding something. The dollars go where-ever the individual donating the money wants them to go. Let's say you have $200 you'd like to donate to help men fight custody battles. You could log-on to a site like this and give $1 to 200 different men, or any variation thereof. Combine your dollar with the dollars of hundreds, or thousands of other donators, and the money adds up quickly.

Misandry is something I honestly don't see as much as misogyny, or if I DO see it, it's in direct response to allegations of misogyny. This could very well be a case of confirmation bias for both sides of the argument. It may well be that I've seen more misandry than misogyny because of the way I view things. But, I know myself rather well. I'm rather Socratic in that way. I've scoffed at the Men's Right movement myself...all the way until a few months ago. Not for any of the same reasons many p…

I refuse to take people seriously once that word comes into play. Sure, there is absolute real misogyny out there, but it's not nearly as common as feminists would have you believe. What we have here is a misappropriation of language. People say "misogyny" when they mean "sexism." And, to drill down, people say "sexism" when someone challenges their world view. Both words can have nuanced meanings, but not so nuanced that they can be used as a broad brush to paint everything. Always look to the …

I'm so tired of this argument and the accompanying straw-man argumentation that goes on on both sides. -Literally blaming a victim of rape, or assault, or robbery, or whatever, is a complete dick thing to do. Social convention dictates that you don't do it.

Why? I would think that would be kind of obvious, no? There's enough wiggle room in that statement to see it either way, I would think. Not all associations are equal in sociological terms.

The question is a bit more difficult to answer. Saying "we're having a whites only night" brings about quite a bit more connotations than "we're having a ladies only night." wouldn't you say?

I still don't see how this matters. They have the right to freely associate with whomever they wish, so long as they are not actively or implicitly being sexist towards you in the workplace.
