Then if they do, escalate it further than that. You have a right to freedom of speech. You have a right to an opinion. If you wrote factual arguments, then those are true as well.

| 3 | This may be the only subreddit not flooded with debate about Obama/Romney/whoever else, and without "GO VOTE" plastered everywhere. I'd say it's safe to say that male interests were not being addressed in the presidential election.It would be a good idea to encourage men to get out there and vote. In this day and age, most voters are women. If there are more male voters, then candidates may be more encouraged to discuss male issues. Candidates are almost forced to bring up female interests often because of such a large base of voters. | /r/MensRights | 07/11/12 06:19 AM |
| 6 | My business professor just quoted the stat that women only make 87% of what men makeDid he quote that 80% of the homeless are male. Did he quote that 85% of retail transactions are made by women? Did he quote that women experience significantly less work related injuries than men? Truth is, there are all sorts of gender gaps in employment. Its interesting how they only focus on one. | /r/MensRights | 06/11/12 05:44 AM |
| 4 | "Without the whole system of parliment changing..."I don't understand how feminism can call itself a progressive movement, yet at the same time feel that people should be elected into a position because of their gender, and not their ability to perform the job required. This is a prime example of someone trying to get their way instead of being concerned about other people. They're trying to manipulate the world into catering to them. | /r/MensRights | 06/11/12 05:05 AM |

"Why, then, do women like Laren Oyler consider it "selfish and cowardly" when someone does not want to be labelled a feminist?" Because they believe feminism is some sort of movement that only a small number of people subscribe to, and they believe those who don't simply haven't been 'enlightened' by its ideology yet.

Yet women file the mass majority of divorces, even though the reasons for divorce are actually pretty evenly split. Men shouldn't have to hide their assets from a system that enslaves them to work. The real question that should be asked is why so many women are separating their families, and giving up on their marriages.

The study told a large group of women to choose their ideal body shape. The result was most women wanted some of the thinnest body shapes that they could select from. They then told heterosexual men to choose the ideal body shape of their partner. The result was men chose the averaged sized models the most, and only a small minority picked the same models the women selected. So if someone made a charact… | /r/MensRights | 03/11/12 05:57 AM |

But do you see the damage that was done when latching a gender movement with an ideology? I believe there would also be much damage if feminism latched itself to conservatism.

Homelessness is mostly a men's issue, with large majorities of the homeless being male. In addition, its worth noting that the mass majority of divorces are filled by women, even though domestic violence and infidelity only make up a minority of those cases, and even fewer of those cases are actually caused by the man.

And on top of that she wanted part of the 50k he won. Sounds to me like the court systems aren't doing a good enough job at fairly distributing the money.

I believe what you are doing here is building bridges, which may strengthen both of our movements. I'd like to comment on a few particular parts of your letter to start a discussion.

They aren't fighting for suffrage anymore in the free world. They aren't fighting for the freedom to own property anymore in the free world.

That's good that you didn't let people tell u it wasn't. The truth is, you have every right to speak out about what happened and seek help for the damage that was done to you.

But if you look at the myriad of issues we face based purely on statistical and factual data, our situation is much worse than what is being talked about.
