2	UK Two female loos for every male one because 'fairness' always means spending twice as much on women It's really a combination of a few factors: Physical anatomy. Women take longer for ordinary urination due to the anatomically required wiping/clean-up. Menstrual hygiene. Tampons/pads etc need to be changed every few hours. This represents an increased average number of visits to the restroom. Young children. In an ideal world, there would be just as many men taking young children into the restroom as women. But the reality is women are much, much more likely to do so due to a variety of cultur…	/r/MensRights	24/05/19 05:19 AM
1	Husband Awarded $40K After DNA Tests Prove Children Aren’t His [x-post from r/news] Seriously. Double standard much? Do they apply the same standard to child support? No, there strict biological paternity is all that matters.	/r/MensRights	05/02/13 04:25 AM
6	I recently received a letter regarding my "male privilege". Same here! You know if they ever did have a draft I would put on the pinkest, frilliest dress I could find and go down to the draft board. Everyone would be looking around wondering why the hell is there this girl in the draft line. I finally reach the end of the line and show them an old draft card. Draft board guy looks at it and goes, "ma'am this draft card is for some guy named <boy name>" Me: <shit-eating grin> umm...about that...	/r/MensRights	07/11/12 07:44 PM
1	A thought on marriage I had last night, please read and offer some honest critique Abolish state marriage and let people make a contract between themselves if they want, and let them have their own private or religious ceremony if that means something to them. You don't need to rely on theoreticals for this. The gay and lesbian community has tried for decades to do EXACTLY what you are proposing. Despite the best attempts of expensive lawyers, these contracts have never been as effective or enforceable as legal marriage. If it was that easy, you would be able to go to legalzoo…	/r/MensRights	15/10/12 06:36 PM
7	A thought on marriage I had last night, please read and offer some honest critique Because nine times out of ten the person you're married to is the default answer for a whole host of legal questions. Say you had kids, your partner died, and you remarried. Who gets custody if you die while your kids are still young? If your new partner is married to you, it's pretty damn likely that they have essentially become an adoptive parent to your children. Without marriage, the court will decide who gets the kids. What if you're estranged from your first partner's parents and they come…	/r/MensRights	15/10/12 06:30 PM
2	A thought on marriage I had last night, please read and offer some honest critique No Christian-based rules are in place now. Atheists go down to the county courthouse and get married every day.	/r/MensRights	15/10/12 06:12 PM
2	Feminists trip on their own feet: Women refuse to share Title IX pool facilities with a transgender woman -- Feminists say "it is very wrong for transgender people to use & abuse Title IX to push their perversion on to Bio women" Hormones do far more than you might think. When you go on hormones, one things that completely changes is your body odor. When a trans gal who's been on E awhile exercises, she doesn't stink like a guy. When a trans guy has been on T awhile, he has a definite manly scent to him. Hormones don't shift bone or completely convert sex organs, but they do change your entire body chemistry. I'm a trans gal, pre-op. I've been on hormones for 20 months. I have testosterone and estrogen levels in the fema…	/r/MensRights	11/10/12 02:55 PM
1	Feminists trip on their own feet: Women refuse to share Title IX pool facilities with a transgender woman -- Feminists say "it is very wrong for transgender people to use & abuse Title IX to push their perversion on to Bio women" It'll probably still smell and taste like a penis though. This is not in fact the case. :P	/r/MensRights	11/10/12 02:41 PM
2	I want to know how my child support is being spent. Exactly. I think this is fair. If you don't want that kind of intrusion into your private life, than don't sign up to be a custodial parent.	/r/MensRights	24/09/12 06:49 PM
2	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor You serious? You do realize there are plenty of trans women who are non-op right? You don't have to get SRS if you don't want to. Some don't get it because they can't afford it. Some because they don't like the current state of medical technology. Some because they honestly just prefer having a penis. Transition is an incredibly personal thing. For some it's as little as changing clothing. For others it's years of hormones, genital surgery, facial surgery, breast and hip implants! You can choose…	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 09:32 PM
2	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor Drat! Here I was hoping you would get a visit from your boss, a weblog printout in his hand: Myroaen, we can see you're confused and going through some real questioning right now. Just know that whatever you decide, we're fully supportive of whatever you need to do. Then you spend the next year trying to convince your coworkers you're not trans. They just shake their heads and endlessly wonder when you're going to drop the act and finally come out of the closet. hehe ;3	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 09:22 PM

6	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor Ok, for those who don't get the joke, I linked to spironolactone and estradiol pills. Spiro is a powerful anti-androgen. It suppresses your body's ability to react to and produce testosterone. Estradiol is estrogen, aka the primary female hormone. Taking the dosages I recommended would completely shift your body chemistry from the male range to the female range. Will this be effective birth control? Absolutely. It will completely shut down your sperm production. However, this is very much like k…	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 08:40 PM

2	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor Well yes, of course these issues do affect trans people. For instance, a few of the often cited mens rights issues are gender disparities in domestic violence cases, divorce court, and college admissions. Now, I consider myself female. My passport, drivers license, and social security info all have my girl name and are listed as female. Does that mean that I always benefit from any biases that exist in the system favoring women? Hardly. These biases aren't usually overtly written in to law. They…	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 07:07 PM
7	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor But they're GOOD side effects! :3	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 05:26 PM
9	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor Depending on your perspective I suppose. I'm a trans gal myself, so yeah... ;_;	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 05:11 PM
1	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor Or you could say screw it and go the most effective contraception method available: http://www.chet-plasticsurgery.com/ Short of divine intervention, there's no way you'll have a kid after visiting that guy!	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 05:08 PM
3	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor Unfortunately, you don't have to worry about that either. ;_;	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 05:07 PM
2	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor Oh, also, if you want the same effect without all the breast growth, you can always go visit this guy: http://www.myorchie.com/ :D This is even more effective than a vasectomy! :3	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 04:54 PM
1	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor Hey, it comes side effects, but it's all worth it right? I mean, sure, after awhile people will probably start calling you ma'am, and sure, after 6-12 months you'll need to wear a bra, but whaaat? You won't be getting any chick pregnant!	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 04:50 PM
0	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor What? .... :3 You asked for a pill that would stop sperm production. This is exactly what you wanted!	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 04:47 PM
5	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor OK, I can help you with that! >:3 Take one of these and one of these at morning and night. While this regimen may come with certain....side effects...I guarantee it will effectively serve as a great method of birth control! :P	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 04:20 PM
29	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor The same thing happens with women, but to a MUCH higher degree. Most twenty-something childless women who want to get their tubes tied actually find it very hard to find a doctor willing to do it.	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 04:15 PM
3	Vasectomy Part II. “The problem with vasectomies is that the wrong men keep getting them.” ~Doctor Not really, about $1200 to make all the deposits you would ever need, plus $200/year to keep them frozen. Sure, in vitro fertilization is expensive, but that's why you store enough to do artificial insemination. This is pretty cheap.	/r/MensRights	13/09/12 04:14 PM

9	Objectification at the Olympics Even better, the left-handed/right-handed nomenclature is exactly the same as trans/cis. It puts both categories on an equal level, even if one is rarer. There are actually people here saying we should use "trans vs. normal" while using "left handed vs. right handed." If you treated handedness like they want to treat gender identity, they would use "left handed vs. normal."	/r/MensRights	14/08/12 06:44 PM
14	Objectification at the Olympics WOAH Do you not even see what you're saying? You're using the same language technique that is used to describe cis/trans while trying to deride it. You say that we should have "trans people" and "normal people." Yet the handedness distinction uses two complementary descriptors, left handed and right handed. If you applied the nomenclature you want to apply to trans status to handedness, you wouldn't use the word right-handed. You would simply say "left handed" or normal. Your post actually beaut…	/r/MensRights	14/08/12 06:42 PM
