8	Would it be fair if women were given 32 paid days a year for having periods? The proposal to introduce statutory menstrual leave in the UK is just for people with endometriosis and adenomyosis, aka people who often suffer from debilitating periods. But I absolutely agree it should still be judged case by case. I have adenomyosis but I take tranexamic acid which keeps my periods in check. However, I do think it's a good thing that we talk more about how awful periods can be. And many employers would do well to be a bit more lenient towards people with shitty periods or an…	/r/MensRights	14/04/26 10:25 AM
3	Men shouldn't stop saying "not all men" until a lot more women are comfortable saying it That’s very true. Many people use words like ‘always’ and ‘never’ when they feel strongly about something. And it’s the same with blanket statements about men and women. I see it all the time in xx-subs, but in this sub too. And that’s fine. It’s just how a lot of people talk. I know they don’t mean all men or all women. And probably not even most men or most women, if you press them a little. However, I do think more subtle language contributes to a better discussion, otherwise it’s easy to foc…	/r/MensRights	03/11/23 10:25 AM
2	If it's considered OK for women to wear make up to give a fake appearance {which men are usually most attracted to} should it be considered OK for men to lie about their wealth {which women are usually most attracted to}? I prefer to date people who are in a similar financial situation as me. It’s just easier when someone has a similar lifestyle. Less is fine, as long as someone is smart with money. A lot more is a turnoff if they’re trying to show it off. So the strategy of pretending to be rich won’t go down very well. I also don’t get the aversion to make-up. You can easily tell when someone is wearing some. Women aren’t born with coloured eyelids and lips. If you don’t like make-up, that’s completely fine and…	/r/MensRights	01/10/23 10:01 AM
44	Paternity tests now illegal in France unless ordered by a judge: offenders risk up to a year in prison and €15,000 fine, even for tests taken abroad. “DNA paternity testing is solely performed on decision of a judge in case of a judiciary procedure in order either to establish or contest paternity or to obtain or deny child support.” So luckily men do have options. Although it’s absolutely shitty that people can’t do a paternity test unless they get a judge involved. That is absolutely ridiculous.	/r/MensRights	18/09/23 06:15 PM
2	Gentle reminder not to demonize all women. We cannot become whay we condemn. This sub did change the way I see men, but not in a bad way. It opened my eyes to a lot of issues that don’t get talked about enough. I learned a lot, and lurking here changed my perspective. And like I was trying to get across, I really dislike the generalisation that all women are awful, but that’s only a small part of this sub. Either way, I think it’s important to stray from your bubble and listen to things you might disagree with (at first). So thank you for your concern, but I’m okay.	/r/MensRights	21/03/23 08:45 PM
3	Gentle reminder not to demonize all women. We cannot become whay we condemn. As a female supporter of men's rights, I appreciate your post. Some posts and comments in this sub make me feel disheartened. Even in this thread, there are comments like 'all women are taught to hate men from an early age', and 'we are done with the tyranny of women.' And while I understand the pain behind those messages, I strongly feel an 'all women are evil' stance isn't constructive to the many issues men face. If only because it makes women feel unwelcome to the cause. (To be clear, I feel…	/r/MensRights	21/03/23 09:53 AM
1	Why are men constantly shamed for their high sex drives or “only wanting sex” as if it is some horrible crime? I’m not recruiting men for a female cause. Sexual liberation is an ‘everybody should be less of an asshole’ problem, not a men vs. women problem.	/r/MensRights	18/03/23 08:43 PM
1	Why are men constantly shamed for their high sex drives or “only wanting sex” as if it is some horrible crime? I am not talking about some feminist agenda or discriminatory laws here, I’m talking about parents raising their kids without shaming them, and schools teaching kids about sex in a healthy way. I’m talking about friends supporting each other instead of shaming them. About women feeling free to be sexual beings without being called a whore. And men being able to do the same without worrying they might come off as predators. There isn’t just one solution for the problem OP addresses, I wouldn’t da…	/r/MensRights	18/03/23 05:34 PM
1	Why are men constantly shamed for their high sex drives or “only wanting sex” as if it is some horrible crime? I know I’m borderlining whataboutism here, but hear me out. Many women (especially 30+ year olds) grew up believing that it’s inherently wrong to want (a lot of) sex, even more if they enjoy casual sex. Which might also be part of the reason why some women view male desire as something bad or gross. You can’t be open to an urge in others that you feel ashamed about in yourself. On top of that, a lot of women were actively taught to watch out for ‘horny men’ to preserve their virtue. The ‘celebra…	/r/MensRights	18/03/23 12:49 PM
2	Should child support be illegal? I'm always conflicted on this topic. I think it's unfair for fathers to spend a large chunk of their income on an unwanted child. It's even worse when they would love to have an active part in their upbringing, but mom and the judge get in the way. But I think it's just as unfair for children to grow up poor and without a father. They are the true victims in this scenario, and the system isn't built to provide for them. Speaking of a shitty system: Abortions are actively discouraged. In many pla…	/r/MensRights	31/01/23 06:09 PM
3	Women trying to tell men what they should find attractive is so bizarre. I appreciate your reply a lot. We should really stop slut-shaming people who are single with an active sex life. STDs can happen to anyone who doesn't practice safe sex. Age and amount of partners are not a factor if people use condoms and get tested. Same for mental and emotional health. Many people grow from their experiences and learn how to communicate their needs better as they age. And being in a lifelong relationship and starting a family isn't the end goal for everyone. I know plenty of …	/r/MensRights	28/01/23 01:46 PM

–	Male student now sues Columbia University over classmate who carried a mattress around campus and accused him of raping her This article gives a pretty decent summary of his side of the story.

1	Local College is removing mens-only restrooms I wouldn't mind sharing a bathroom with men at all. In general, men's bathrooms are a lot cleaner than women's. They're also quicker and use less toilet paper. It's a win-win! On a slightly related note: I still don't get why some women hover over the seat. Put the damn thing up if you're going to splatter all over it. And these are probably the same women who complain about men leaving the seat up.	/r/MensRights	04/11/14 10:03 AM
1	Male Privilege Maybe. I can also imagine that some men wouldn't want women to fulfill that role instead of them, or would be distracted / more focussed on their well-being. That could cause some problems. I still wouldn't want a guy to take my place, just because I'm a woman. I don't have any kids, nobody depends on me, so in a way, my life would be less 'valuable' than that of a father, for example. But there are many important roles in times of war, and everyone should do as much as they're capable of, regar…	/r/MensRights	05/03/14 04:02 PM
6	Male Privilege I think it's totally backwards that women are exempt from draft, but I also think it is discrimination. Just because it 'protects' women, doesn't make it less discriminating. And men suffer from it too. A stronger, bigger military force with more women would benefit everyone in times of war. If my country was ever at war, I'd want to protect it. I wouldn't like going into combat or see it as a privilige (but who does, really), but I'm strong and fit, and with the right training, I can't think of…	/r/MensRights	05/03/14 03:23 PM
2	Some reasons Why being born male is not a "privilege" Because feminists are a great example?	/r/MensRights	30/01/14 10:58 AM
1	Some reasons Why being born male is not a "privilege" This is a list of the advantages of being female. That may sound pretty obvious, but apparently it isn't. Both sexes have their privileges. Summing up the privileges of females, doesn't prove that males don't have any. Apart from that, some of the privileges are not true (better employment, less likely to experience dysmorphia), others are by definition not a privilege (less likely to X), and some don't even make sense ("having it all", "the Sisterhood").	/r/MensRights	30/01/14 09:52 AM
