Graduate degrees should be self funded or funded by industries that need people with graduate degrees (e.g. companies normally pay you to do STEM research). I would use the word "entitled". Language like "check your privilege" promotes a solipsistic view of one's own suffering.

No, it's straight out of the leftist playbook. Elites control society through centralized power, enhanced by corrupt relationships between government, media, tech, and anyone else who will help them push the lie that theft is a virtue for those who envy.

Its really society at large saying fuck off to men since they wouldn't do this if people donated to men's health causes. However, their hands are also soiled because they are a major health advocacy organization and the fact that they exclude men's health as a focus is part of the reason why people donate this way.

I think technology has changed the amount of work to be done at home. Without 2 cars in every home, supermarkets with year round availability of basically everything, washing machines and dishwashers and stuff like that which save us a ton of time. A housewife just isn't as valuable financially as it used to be. Now you can hire a maid or nanny part time to do all that stuff if you really want.

I usually explain what the men's rights movement is about as: society doesn't show enough compassion for men. It's easy to go from there with whatever example is on your mind. It's a good way to frame it as well because people want to feel like they're compassionate. If you frame it with words that attack their worldview (there is no patriarchy, contrary ideas about male or female privilege), they're much more likely to be resistant to the ideas.

The reason we want women to join the draft is because maybe people will think twice about throwing away the lives of a generation of men AND women, since men don't get enough compassion in our society to be reason enough on their own. From another point of view, it may be the first step to abolishing the draft altogether.

The picture is flawed because they'd all be equal if they gave all 3 the rightmost platform, no need to figure out who is more deserving than others since disadvantage depends on perspective a lot more than height. Women don't need bathrooms any more than men, that's ridiculous.

When you name call it communicates that you lack any better argument... It's a cancer to real discussion that basically shortcuts to disrespecting your opponent, hoping more people already on your side are listening and will back you up. Kind of turns arguments into a popularity contest. What is really ironic is that this is most common with groups claiming to represent minorities and yet their main argument is to appeal to majority rule.

They're not evil, but a good marriage is a great thing. My wife isn't brainwashed by feminism and we support each other in everything we do. It is just extremely important that the woman you marry supports men's rights. If she can't handle empathizing with suffering of men, run. You don't have to get married, though, if you don't want to.

That's also a fair point. It's a complex issue for sure. I'm for LPS in light of abortion being legal, but I would prefer that neither were legal and shared custody was the norm. Sure you could give up or be denied custody but would be on the hook for child support, although that should have a few caps (whichever is lower from X Y and Z with X: percentage of payee's income, Y: Flat cap, Z: cost of living adjusted cap).

I don't think the MRM has a stance on abortion, just that those rights should be equal. I wouldn't praise a woman for having an abortion when the father wants to raise his child because I believe abortion is wrong and that the child is just as much the father's as the mother's.

They define power as power over others, which implicitly denies agency to the "victims" of the power exchange.

I associate a lot of post-modernist thinking with post-structuralism, anti-enlightenment, anti-science, and collectivism. Michel Foucault for example considering enlightenment ideals like freedom, liberation, etc to be elusive and therefore useless and even oppressive seems to underlie the mentality we're seeing. The postmodernist claim that substance is elusive and image is everything is exactly what enables the attitude that winning an argument doesn't require being right, only the appearance …

I agree. You've said too many things to comment on all of them but I think the center of what women really "need to do" is to take responsibility for themselves. Their success, their choices of morals & ethics, their happiness and wellbeing are their own responsibility. Men have been burdened with responsibility and therefore act with power over their circumstances. When feminism says women should have power without responsibility first they create the problems we are seeing today.

Your point stands and I agree but it's common for equality to be measured by outcome, which leads to unfairness. This is especially wrong when advantages are given to groups based on their group's statistical disadvantages rather than to individuals based on their personal disadvantages. It is most wrong when only a small percentage of a group is used against that group. For example, men hold power - say even if the entire 1% was all men, those men aren't helping other men and saying "well, men …

You're right, it's a bad angle to start with, "feminism is wrong" instead of, "I'm concerned about these issues men and boys are facing and the lack of support provided." An important nuance of all this is that challenging someone's beliefs is a form of conflict. Relationships can only handle so much conflict based on equity built over time.

Because it's a service that has been set up based on a misunderstanding of the rights of the accused.

It was 1 in 6. All the numbers were quite high, but perhaps they have similar standards - as in if your standards lead to 1 in 5 women are raped then they also lead to 1 in 6 men raped.

The real problem here is the phrase "gender violence".

But if the baby is considered her own body, then how can it be murder? If I cut off your hand, I wouldn't be charged with murdering your hand. I also believe that if the baby is considered to be part of her body, it should also be considered part of his body - it shares half the genetic material from each parent. So in the same way that a man should not be able to force a woman to have an abortion, a woman should not be able to have an abortion if the father wants to raise the child as his own.

The real issue here is that if you deny misandry exists, then because this fits under "sexism" the conclusion is that it must be misogyny.

The CDC report contains those numbers, but it puts "men forced to penetrate" under "Other Sexual Violence", and leaves "Rape" blank with an asterisk.
