Let my try... A woman's reproductive self-interest is served when she feels loved, in both the individual and social contexts. IE "feeling loved" is how she knows her reproductive needs are met.

Genital amputations are intended to deprive the person their natural ability to experience sexual pleasure. Foreskin doesn't grow back (earings), you can't have the condition removed (tatoo). It's rather more severe, I'd say, in terms of imposing an irreversible decision on someone else. Especially where something so important and personal as sex is involved.

Apparently, he was in the elevator one day when a young woman came in. Proctor tipped his hat at her. She was offended and said, "What is that supposed to mean?" The pastor's response was: "Madame, by tipping my hat I was telling you several things. That I would not harm you in any way.

Telling a guy he should have "kept it in his pants" in the face of a woman who decided to go off birth control is a form of tyranny: it's telling the guy to accept responsibility when he had no authority over whether the woman lied about taking birth control pills.

Why do women think they have the right to determine what is or isn't masculine or manly?How a woman behaves towards a male depends on her respect and/or sexual attraction towards said male. No respect + no attraction = 'boy' She will come to the boy/man conclusion based entirely upon the biases she holds in her head. Here's another clue: you will never, ever observe a woman judging a man the way he judges himself or other men. There are huge swaths of the male experience women studiously ignore.

| 1 | Just look at the comments. Stuff like this makes me sick(because, let’s face it, most rape victims are women) You're either ignorant or a liar. Perhaps both. In the USA, more men are raped than women. Most of the men are raped in prison. Or perhaps you extended non-person-hood to any man in prison.

These people think the MRM originates in centrally-produced propaganda, like feminism. It doesn't. MRM originates in men's individual lives, in men coming to their own conclusions based on their own 1st-hand experiences. | /r/MensRights | 15/08/11 03:53 PM |
