This is the “equality of outcomes” argument in a nutshell. It basically boils down to some kind of universal socialist argument, imo

Definitely is. They’re complaining now about fake posts being posted there which are then being cross posted to other subs (aka ours) to complain about the double standards. This post is definitely fake. Unfortunately I don’t think the subs here will care or use any sort of reasoning and downvote the post.

Former reporter here and I still work in the industry but on the tech side. The vast majority of newspapers take libel and accusations of criminality very seriously. Journalists who go to school to be reporters typically spend at least a whole semester learning media law. In articles where they are particularly worried about it they will run the articles by their lawyers. Just so you know, newspapers absolutely take this stuff very seriously.

Amen. This submission is tagged “discrimination” but honestly prostate cancer only recently took over as a more fatal cancer I believe. We can’t expect to act like feminists in response to feminism by overhyping things. I’m pretty disappointed in the rest of this thread so far.

That’s fair. Sexual assaults have a special stigma to them that’s for sure.
/r/MensRights26/09/17 10:41 PM

I know people here like to claim guilty until proven innocent regarding sexual accusations, but really it’s been that way all along for most things. Think of how many companies immediately start distancing themselves from someone who has been accused of a crime. It happens all the time. So this isn’t really anything too new. I do think it’s is getting worse, but it is most certainly not a special phenomenon in the man is accused or sexual assault realm.

As a former reporter, this is because things outside the normal is one of the definitions of newsworthiness criteria. Iirc there are 11 that we learned way back in school. Since there is a large increase in suicide among women, that is the most unusual thing about the report, so it tends to get the headline. No sexism here folks. Move along.

I just came here to say all these same things.

I think it's great that someone is making a documentary. But let's not make up shit about feminists trying to "silence" some one documenting the MRM.

Looks like it's a CoC they're developing to make it easy for OSS projects to copy and paste it as their own CoC. I've run into this type of thing before.

I think you may be guilty of some of the things people claim about feminism. Some MRAs can be extreme, just as in feminism. Not all feminists are feminazis. There are some rational ones. I don't think most MRAs are extreme, though obviously in any movement you are going to have those who take it to an extreme. We have a lot of rational and civil discussions here about the problems men face, and also have discussions at times about the difficulties women face. I only read the TLDR version of your…

I agree a concensus among mods would be appropriate. I'd like to request that there be an official Mod Gathering to consider it. I feel that now is an appropriate time to protest all the shit going on at Reddit, and that this latest thing is just the final straw.

I think there is enough dissatisfaction with reddit right now that the more people who start expressing that outrage in terms of impactful action, reddit will either be forced to listen to its userbase for a change, or admit that it's a complete shitshow at this point, and everyone will move on over to voat for it.

While it's certainly alarming that bills like this are being passed ANYWHERE (seriously?

The dr appointment things sound like the things you should be upset about. But asking to talk to the kids while theyre on vacation doesnt sound terribly bad to me.

It happens very, very infrequently in comparison to men being raped by other men. I'm not 100% convinced of that. And really there aren't enough studies to prove one way or the other yet, I think.

I agree with you. In fact, it's pretty telling that the article is written that the teacher took advantage of the students (it's right there in the opening graf). Defense attorneys are absolutely tasked with defending their client. It's like that one defense attorney sign that was on here recently "Just because you did it doesn't mean you're guilty".

I think their issue is that they don't feel the statistics that suggest otherwise (ie, LESS than 1 in 5 women get raped) are accurate, and they're angry that the statistics aren't accurate, because they truly believe 1 in 5 women are getting raped. It's similar to how we are angry because we DON'T think the 1 in 5 stat is accurate. We're called 'rape apologists' for that. So don't say "Feminists are angry women do not get raped a lot", because that's the same tactic they use when they call MRAs …

I don't think this is exactly the "oppression olympics" in action. This is pointing out facts. It's countering the feminist lies about female victimization. That is their strength -- scaring people into supporting their agenda through inflated claims.

You need these kinds of statistics to properly fight against the sort of agenda neo-feminists are pushing. And theirs is an extremely dan…

I think it's not so much particularly about being "like a girl" but rather "outside of traditional expectations for that person". For example, the insult is "you throw like a girl" when applied to a young boy, is about physical activity which is generally more associated with boys than girls in traditional gender expectations. I don't see why people don't GET THIS. That video where they have actors/actresses do things "like a girl" is so off-base. It's not that doing things like a girl is bad. I…

Ironically, because these have nurtured the feminine side of their natures, they are also able to forgive in a way few men have been able to do in the past. But because they have no interest in returning to the “bad boy” mentality their competitors brandished, they are faced with a challenge most men have never had to confront. wait, what the everliving fuck? It's "feminine" to forgive someone? This horse shit absolutely infuriates me.

I LOVE the argument that "your understanding of feminism is incorrect." It's really damn close to the recent "Not all men" hashtag that they took so much umbrage to. "You don't think feminism is for equality?" "No. Because [reasons here]." "Oh, you're not looking at it right [or] Sure those are problems, but they don't need legislation to protect against" or my favorite "That's not historical feminism," which is literally the exact same argument of "not all men."

Very well said. I hope OP reads your comment. I find one of the saddest things about the MRM the fact that we must have women as our figureheads to even be taken seriously. It speaks REAMS about the value that men have. "We won't even listen to your concerns simply because you're men." It's the vilest, most disgusting thought, that you can't even be heard. And it is primarily feminists who say that. I think that's why we have so much aversion to feminism. I'm sure we'd all be more open to what t…

The thing that bothers me is that it's becoming moreso that unless you use explicitly insulting language toward feminists, you're downvoted.

Men sexualize women, but don't objectify them as much. For men it's important that the sexual "thing" in front of them is an actual person, with a personality I think you're onto something with that. I'd argue that's also why "amateur" porn is so popular, compared to "porn star" porn.

I feel for you and your boyfriend. I'm glad things came out relatively well in this case. I had a friend who was falsely accused, and he jumped at the chance to plead to something like "bad influence on a minor." It's a shame that the court system is skewed the way it is. Prosecutors trump charges up to ridiculousness, and then offer a plea deal that is still shitty, but better than potential prison time. So you cop to the plea even if you're innocent. That's the system for you.

Ok, so you're saying that patriarchy actually does hurt men to a large degree, right? Because there is a whole lot of evidence backing up the claim that divorced fathers rarely get custody of their children. Not only that, but time with them is rare, too. So if we're saying that patriarchy impacts men to such a degree, how is it a systematic oppression of women? Shouldn't it rather be a "systematic oppression of all manner of people"? And doesn't it then cease to be patriarchy?

"Imposition of patriarchal gender roles" ... what? Define your version of patriarchy please. We can't have a reasonable discussion about it until the person claiming it exists has clearly defined the subject of the discussion. All too many times, these arguments end up with "That's not what Patriarchy is!" There is no clearly defined (i mean in two sentences) meaning for Patriarchy.

I'm not getting tripped up on small details; I'm saying he's not doing a good job as a reporter. The way he wrote it is very he-said-she-said. Additionally, perhaps the MRM rep had the wrong title; maybe he spoke to a male representative for the GM, or a sub manager or whatever. The point is that it's poor writing.

From what I've seen, the definition of patriarchy really varies based on who's giving the definition. Yours is probably a decent description in that it doesnt explicitly say "Men are bad." However, it implies it by suggesting that it is somehow the fault of men for classifying anything. also, i've got a fair amount of "feminine" qualities. But that doesn't make me any less a man.

The very premise which necessitates the MRM, namely that males suffer and often in very unfair ways, is in direct conflict with the basis of feminism: which is that while women are suffering men are hamming it up by being oppressors. and so they had to come up with the [bullshit] concept that "patriarchy hurts men too." Really, 'patriarchy' hurts men? Then how exactly is it patriarchy? edit: I misread. But yes feminists do like to claim that patriarchy hurts men too. So it's not exactly the case…
