Their relationship is technically legal—but after she sent him nude selfies, he was charged with possession of child pornography" and she was not.Because that authority can be used as leverage (i.e. suck my dick or your fired/fail the class), but it's just as often a situation of vulnerability, i.e. your doctor can't tell you what to do, but he can take advantage of your thankfulness for having made you not die. It's considered improper because it's difficult to impossible to prove that the relationship wasn't forged by abusive/dishonest/manipulative methods. It's not that it's inherently wrong, it's just that it easily could be without a… | /r/MensRights | 17/11/16 05:12 AM |
| 1 | Married GP who spent six months in jail for groping a teenager’s breasts during an examination is CLEARED at a retrial after jury hears it was a ‘terrible misunderstanding’Sorry, you are correct. They abolished the "right to peremptory challenge" and instead implemented the "right of stand-by", which is the exact same thing except it is "encouraged to exercise it sparingly" and it only applies for prosecution v. the crown. But given that those are typically the majority of court cases with Juries anyway, it's basically the same situation. | /r/MensRights | 15/11/16 06:07 AM |
| 3 | Married GP who spent six months in jail for groping a teenager’s breasts during an examination is CLEARED at a retrial after jury hears it was a ‘terrible misunderstanding’This is the UK. Your options for getting out of it are far more limited. Escaping jury duty is the easiest thing in the world. You show up on the first day and put on airs that you are the most likely person in the world to find the defendant guilty. Then if you even get called up you will be immediately dismissed by the defense. Defendant a minority? Wear a MAGA hat or a "Brexit FTW" shirt or whatever. White guy on trial for a blue-collar crime? Come in with piercings, tats and blue hair. Boom,… | /r/MensRights | 15/11/16 12:09 AM |

| 13 | pcgamer harming men in games is ok but harming women in games not okThis does not belong in a video game. Why not? It's basically the videogame equivalent of a clockwork orange, a very famous and well respected book and film which had a very similar scene even. And besides, it's not even what you probably think it is, the scene depicted is the filming of a porno, not a rape.

Will trans-women dominate women's MMA? Does anyone want that?Agreed. Especially on the need for surgery. Kroc had A LOT of facial reconstruction to look like that. Also, it sounds kind of rough to say it out loud, but I honestly don't think it's worth putting much effort into catering for.

Will trans-women dominate women's MMA? Does anyone want that?Dunno about UFC etc., but in the olympics I'm pretty sure trans athletes have to be 2 years post op minimum, which means no balls and technically less test available than a natural woman (because also no ovaries, which produce very small amounts of test). Having said that, I also think the whole "no bone density/muscle mass etc. advantage" line they feed is bullshit.

The womens can't take the same loading in terms of physical size of discs however, and tbh that is an oversight on the IWF's part as if you had all the change plates on it as well you would start hitting capacity around the current womens WR due to it's shorter sleeves (unless you had thinner plates).

Fingering the wrong guy (that wasn't supposed to be a pun, honest) doesn't necessarily mean it was false/baseless, just that she identified the wrong person.

A Gnostic Atheist is the only kind who claim to "Know" there is no god.

Women are entitled to have a man "cough up for a couple’s first excursion, whether it costs him $50 or $500"Pay for yourself without a second thought. If it's a big deal to him then he will stop you and pay himself.

If you advertised for a hand modeling job and said "no thalidomide babies" then you would get sued. If you rejected applicants for their unsuitability because they don't have hands to model then thats fine.

| 1 | TotalBiscuit on recent attempts by feminists to label games developer Crytek as "misogynistic"Height is less a factor than weight, if you are 5'6 and 180lbs then you will likely be a lot stronger than someone 6' and 180lbs (assuming same body fat and bone density etc) simply cause of the fact you will have higher muscle mass. If you are benching more than guys 50lbs up on you then you are doing well. It's probably either better physical conditioning, better neural activation (can play a really big role in strength) or perhaps they do too much isolation work and thus the stabalizing muscl… | /r/MensRights | 15/10/13 11:55 AM |

Your body weight is muscle plus skeleton and organs etc. For a given height your skeletal and organ mass is pretty much the same across everyone (+- a bit cause of gender, phenotype etc.) The only part that really changes is fat weight (which you can generally ignore for this cause fat people tend not to hit the gym much until you get to the EXTREME strong end of the scale)… | /r/MensRights | 15/10/13 11:14 AM |
