2	Ever been accused of "mansplaining"? There is a pattern here. Denying it is counterproductive. There seems to be a pattern in the places you attended school and worked. Or, you may be operating under confirmation bias. I only suspect the second because you use: ratio of girls to men If you're comfortable answering, what field are you in? In my two fields of study, at the grad level, the women are doing amazingly well gradewise, and the percentage of women is getting close to 50%. In the undergrad classes, there are fewer women, but…	/r/MensRights	10/02/13 06:48 PM
6	Ever been accused of "mansplaining"? I've also seen guys in my engineering classes complain about having the girl (the only one) as a partner, without ever having met her. She's actually a killer programmer. I've seen far too many of my peers assume that women are incompetent until proven otherwise.	/r/MensRights	10/02/13 04:27 AM
1	Ever been accused of "mansplaining"? Out of curiosity, why is the default that someone would speak lengthily about a topic without expertise in the area? That sounds like an illogical setup. Why is it the default that a person in disagreement would interrupt another person who is speaking? From the women in my life, I've heard that the default for them is a strange balance between coming off as reasonably intelligent, but also not "flaunting" their intelligence. I've also wandered around 2x before, and there was a compelling post a…	/r/MensRights	10/02/13 04:25 AM

Did they really do that? Quite frankly, they find it funny. There are always trolls. Quite frankly, I think this is about equal to when there was a thread on r/mensrights extolling (and encouraging) people to troll on the "I need feminism..." tumblr.	/r/MensRights	10/02/13 04:00 AM
7	Yet another medical paper from outside the US says circumcision damages the penis and its sensitivity I'd say end the hypocrisy, either well all get cut or no one does As someone lucky enough not to be from the US, I'm glad my culture doesn't cut girls or boys. However, I think that most women are educated enough to understand the argument that male circumcision is bad for reasons "x,y,z..." and would oppose it, or at least sign a petition against it. However, the clergy will not. This is from my experience, back when the American Academy of Pediatrics was about to make an announcement on their …	/r/MensRights	08/02/13 06:32 PM
10	A feminist argues at Norton forums that a men's rights site should remained blocked. Out of curiosity, what is the context of the ban? Is it non-child-friendly sites or a ban applicable to everyone? If it's for child-friendliness, I can see why sites with swear words would be blocked. I once turned on the "family" setting to see what would happen, and any page that used anything remotely controversial (e.g. the NYTimes, for war coverage at the time) would be blocked. Other than that, it does sound terribly like quote-mining. AVfM does make some good points, but as with any blog …	/r/MensRights	08/02/13 06:24 PM
1	I'm following this #INeedMasculismBecause trend on Twitter, and so far here's my favorite one My impression, before seeing some more of this subreddit, was that men's rightists supported posting people's personal information with the intent of harassment and intimidation, since y'all link to Elam's site, the one of RegisterHer fame.	/r/MensRights	08/02/13 06:15 PM

2	Vigorously support women's rights by fully engaging in efforts to ratify the 1972 Equal Rights Amendment (ERA): Some people have argued that ERA ratification will help men's rights also. I hope this gains enough traction. And I wonder what Phyllis Schlafly will say/do about it.	/r/MensRights	07/02/13 06:19 AM
3	Rapists denied custody. Anyone have any info on this? Like how are they defining rape? Arkansas law will wait until after a conviction of rape, to protect people from being automatically punished upon a charge rather than a conviction. Sounds like they're defining rape as being convicted of rape in court.	/r/MensRights	07/02/13 06:18 AM
1	Only nine states allow men to change their last name to their new wife's name when they get married. Good to know. I'll make sure to finish up my paperwork before (if) I move to NY.	/r/MensRights	04/02/13 09:20 PM
1	Only nine states allow men to change their last name to their new wife's name when they get married. But tribal affiliation doesn't necessitate a name change. I'm Chinese, and women keep their birth names -- since meaning counts, the name might not make sense afterwards. As a scientist, name-changing after marriage sounds like a bureaucratic nightmare.	/r/MensRights	04/02/13 07:00 AM
13	Should women be drafted, now that they're allowed in combat? Feminist says no because of separate roles. (NP) And no exceptions for the rich folk, hopefully.	/r/MensRights	03/02/13 11:44 PM
3	Only nine states allow men to change their last name to their new wife's name when they get married. Really? I thought it was the same for any name change -- driver's license, social security card, visas/passports, security permits, and something for the tax stuff.	/r/MensRights	03/02/13 11:32 PM
3	Only nine states allow men to change their last name to their new wife's name when they get married. It sounds like a lot of paperwork to change a name after marriage. I made a small change to my name two years ago, and I'm still not done.	/r/MensRights	03/02/13 09:16 PM
3	Are men giving up on women nowadays? : AskMen In response to an askmen's question I posted, men's list seem to include financially successful, above-average beautiful (someone said 7+), intellectual, and makes kids/family a priority. I'm not sure what women want, but the responses on askmen must be from men much picker than me.	/r/MensRights	03/02/13 08:00 PM
5	A Voice For Men has a petition to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment Slightly off topic, but wasn't there some debacle about /r/feminism and /r/feminisms not being feminist anymore?

1	Apparently this guy on /r/relationships used 3 forms of birth control... The patch, condoms, and withdrawal and his GF is pregnant. His previously pro-Life girlfriend now wants an abortion, that he op To me its pretty fucking clear she fucked someone else raw, and wants an abortion to avoid the pregnancy. I didn't get that impression at all. It sounds like if she cheated, she could have also gotten an early first trimester abortion without telling. Also, considering the dependency of condoms and withdrawal on proper use, and the problems of patch-form drug delivery (existed in pain medicine, could extend to birth control), the failure rate of their contraception choices are pretty reasonable.…	/r/MensRights	03/02/13 05:22 PM
1	For victims of abuse, revenge is often best served online I see it as less of a game than a failing of the justice and social services system. Truly, what recourse is there in the US for the people<sup>1</sup> who are victims, but judged not to be victims by the court? <sup>1</sup> The women/girls mentioned in the article, but especially also the men prevented from even coming forward with their stories by pre-existing bias.	/r/MensRights	03/02/13 08:29 AM
12	Not an MR issue, but I hear it thrown around in MR/feminist arguments all the time.. It was described to me that there are experiences that I can never share. I have never experienced gender dysphoria, had to regret my parents decision to circumcise (glad they did not!), had a mental illness or disability, suffered from sexual abuse/assault, lived in extreme poverty, etc. There are experiences I can listen to others describe, sympathize -- but not ever successfully live vicariously through their stories of life. So when that NYTimes columnist wrote an article, essentially callin…	/r/MensRights	03/02/13 08:24 AM
6	Is there a site which focuses on men's issues but is friendly toward feminism? Yes, I read it. I see the observation from the study, that these girls believe their action is futile. The next steps you claim in the essay as necessary, I'm having trouble understanding the way you step to each one. The girls believe their action is futile because the social view says their intelligence is an "unchanging attribute." This sounds like the theory of the person's research, which may be true. Let's say it is. The reason these girls think their intelligence is an unchanging attribut…	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 11:48 PM

8	Is there a site which focuses on men's issues but is friendly toward feminism? Researchers have uncovered the reason for this difference in how difficulty is interpreted, and it is simply this: More often than not, Bright Girls believe that their abilities are innate and unchangeable, while bright boys believe that they can develop ability through effort and practice....We continue to carry these beliefs, often unconsciously, around with us throughout our lives. And because Bright Girls are particularly likely to see their abilities as innate and unchangeable, they grow up…	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 07:12 PM
2	Firsthand experience of female teacher abuse against male students in public schools I thought (and still think) my teachers are pretty smart. Some of them were also lecturers at a nearby private university (ranked consistently in the top ten for engineering<sup>1.)</sup> We had a gifted program, and those teachers were superb. Guess I lucked out. <sup>1</sup> My schedule was heavily loaded with math/science courses, so I can't say much about the other subjects offered.	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 06:06 PM
8	Several people are emaling this to students at my College. Talk about total being hypocritical. So my interpretation was: more women than men go to college, but there are higher prices than ever -- affects more women than men --> oppression of women. Insert something about Obama. What kind of nut comes up with this stuff? Am I going crazy?	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 04:16 PM
6	Sandra Fluke: People Who Oppose Free Birth Control Are Like People Who Oppose Insurance Coverage For Leukemia Patients I don't agree with pulling quotes out of concept and misrepresenting content. That quote was an argument attacking the religious argument that says having health insurance pay for birth control violates the employer's religious freedom. Here is some context: “If you take a step back and think about that, you work at a restaurant or you work at a store, and your boss is able to deny you leukemia coverage or contraception coverage or blood transfusions or any number of medical concerns that someon…	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 07:38 AM

2	Today at work they had a Go Red For Women (fighting female heart disease) to "Support the women in your life – Moms, Wives, Sisters, Aunts and Friends " Maybe I'm just a naive 20-something but I've never seen one medical campaign in my life time or work life that told me to go rub my testes for lumps or go to the doctor to have my prostate examined. Uh... I have... and do... I've been to events where they hand out fake testicles for us to practice on, and I've only a year on you. My layman opinion on the matter is that because we are so disposable, why does it matter if more of us die? Not really. Even my research into a disease that affects men…	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 06:46 AM
9	Several people are emaling this to students at my College. Talk about total being hypocritical. Most women who attend our universities major in non-STEM (read bullshit) majors like English, Art, and Art History. I actually took several courses with women who said they were proud to be in "new media" programs. Basically, they're wasting the university's time and your money with their grants and subsidized loans. I'm not sure why non-STEM majors are automatically bullshit. A lot of the texts-based majors do the sort of research that actually makes them very good at the type of coding used in…	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 06:29 AM

2	Today at work they had a Go Red For Women (fighting female heart disease) to "Support the women in your life – Moms, Wives, Sisters, Aunts and Friends " A few years ago, I attended a medical conference with my research mentor. There was a session on increasing awareness and diagnosis of boys and young men with autoimmune diseases. Why? More women than men have autoimmune diseases. A girl/young woman presenting classical symptoms enters the doctor's office, and it's one of the first things screened for. It was less likely for the boy/young man, who might not have the classical symptoms, so it's more likely to be missed.	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 06:04 AM
6	Today at work they had a Go Red For Women (fighting female heart disease) to "Support the women in your life – Moms, Wives, Sisters, Aunts and Friends " I think many people have problem with Bayesian statistics. It is more likely for men than women to have heart disease. Among the population of men with heart disease, more are diagnosed earlier. Among the population of women with heart disease, differences in symptom presentation mean later diagnosis or misdiagnosis is more frequent. Overall, more men than women die of heart disease, but that is because more men than women get heart disease.	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 06:02 AM
1	Break.com has a petition to help a "hot" teacher that lost her job for semi nude pictures. Isn't she in Colorado? I thought pot became alright there. A teacher is always teaching to kids that look up to them. If this is how you would like you daughter to act this would be a good teacher for you. So countries with public nude beaches have no teachers who go nude in their free time?	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 05:55 AM

1	Argument for Men's Reproductive Choice The female condom is an interesting concept. However, it does not seem to be as ubiquitous or low-cost as the typical condom handed out for free by the student health center. Spermicides sound like they have a lot of strange side effects such as irritation, vaginal pH imbalance, etc. and very high failure rates for the trouble. The Pill was only recently made "free," and apparent interpreted by insurance carriers as providing one type of pill for free on the plan. There are also, for various rea…	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 05:41 AM
5	Today at work they had a Go Red For Women (fighting female heart disease) to "Support the women in your life – Moms, Wives, Sisters, Aunts and Friends " I think TheFarnell said it very concisely here. There is a medical context to this campaign. Heart disease awareness, among lay people and physicians is lower for women than men. There are gendered differences in disease symptoms and response to treatment. Many of these differences were missed because it wasn't known until the 90s that there were these differences -- because of mostly men studied for clinical research and male animal models. There have been campaigns alerting men of their risk f…	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 05:30 AM

3	How is CVD (Cardiovascular Disease) a womens issue? "Go Red for Women" makes me pretty mad, especially when they BS statistics. I know of several labs doing research on heart tissue, that are pulling only from Caucasian male cadavers and male animal models. This is good for keeping the subject population homogeneous and ruling out confounding variables, but this is also a good way to miss gendered nuances in disease presentation and response to treatment. I don't often see the research study modeling general health, that goes out of the way to recruit women subjects. Even my project does not, because it's much harder to …	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 05:17 AM
2	How is CVD (Cardiovascular Disease) a womens issue? "Go Red for Women" makes me pretty mad, especially when they BS statistics. Women have a lower diagnosis rate and are less responsive to treatment because there are gender differences in symptoms and response to treatment, which wasn't known until the 90s, and until then, research primarily focused on using men in clinical studies and male animal models. It wasn't intentional sexism -- male animals to prevent interference from the estrus cycle, (Caucasian) male clinical study participants to keep the subject population homogeneous. Even now, my research pulls from all C…	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 05:11 AM
3	How is CVD (Cardiovascular Disease) a womens issue? "Go Red for Women" makes me pretty mad, especially when they BS statistics. Thanks for providing the correct medical facts.

8	Firsthand experience of female teacher abuse against male students in public schools My school was nicer then. I made a deal with my high school math/chemistry/physics teachers: if I get the right answer, I get the points. If I get the wrong answer, no partial credit. I showed whatever work felt necessary (i.e. little to none). If for whatever reason, the teacher suspected I was cheating, we'd have a little chat, I'd scrawl on the blackboard, it would be right, and life went on.	/r/MensRights	02/02/13 04:49 AM
2	Some women are really hell bent on denying men reproductive rights and freedoms I also believe that if a man and woman goes into a sexual relationship both absolutely opposed to having a child, and the woman willfully becomes pregnant for whatever reason, that is bad for the man, and something should be done to address that. However, there are also two cases that legal parental surrender would make more complicated: Accidental pregnancies do happen. If the man and the woman are both morally opposed to abortion, the woman would be affected more severely. This is especially p…	/r/MensRights	01/02/13 04:26 AM
2	minngirl in /r/Frugal boasts about giving $3,000 worth of items from extreme-couponing to a women's only shelter. Not surprisingly, she is given lots of praise for her sexist charity. Sounds like she's receiving praise primarily for being a college senior using her time and extreme-couponing skills for a charity. The charity she chose was a battered women's shelter. I'd bet that someone who donated to homes/education programs for abused male youth, men's homeless shelters, prostate cancer research, etc. would also receive praise for going out of their way to be charitable.

The collagen-enhanced skin cream threads had a lot of people who got the science and facts wrong. Lastly, there have been a few threads I've seen when people have linked another subreddit's thread, which then turned into a dead forest of deleted comments, and then have a huge complain-fest about censorship on other subreddits.

1	Tomorrow is "Go Red" day to raise awareness for women's heart disease. Is there a male equivalent? AHA has better things to do than respond to than the perception of sexism from the masses who didn't know that the lower rate of women's (and female animal models) inclusion in heart disease research means that women are more likely to be undiagnosed, and when diagnosed, offered treatment primarily tested on men, even though there is good scientific evidence that men and women present with different symptoms and respond to some therapies differently.	/r/MensRights	01/02/13 03:35 AM
3	Tomorrow is "Go Red" day to raise awareness for women's heart disease. Is there a male equivalent? Thank you for posting actual information about the context of women's heart disease --instead of a knee-jerk emotional reaction to assumed sexism. As a hopeful future doctor, I definitely got a sinking feeling when the prof described a near-miss case, that the doctor had caught because he had recently attended a conference describing women's heart attack symptoms. Who knows what therapies that might have worked better on women than men that were nixed, or what other diseases that have less data …	/r/MensRights	01/02/13 03:32 AM
4	Tomorrow is "Go Red" day to raise awareness for women's heart disease. Is there a male equivalent? Heart disease affects both men and women, but the historically male-oriented research into detection and treatment of heart disease results in misdiagnosis and undertreatment for women. For example, men and women having heart attacks have some symptoms in common, but a significant population of women present with different symptoms, resulting in delayed treatment for these women. Part of the problem is that for many years, to keep medical research subjects as homogeneous as possible, the subject…	/r/MensRights	01/02/13 03:26 AM

These are kids from very low-income families, who suddenly don't qualify for financial aid because their dads were assholes who won't release any financial info, so that the kid can get the paperwork in order. There were bright kids who got accepted into ivy league universities from inner city schools who lost their scholarships. They couldn't even get financial aid at the state school.

It was explained to me that custody should go to the parent who spends most of the time raising the kid, because this parent has the most experience so far with the kid, and it's better to keep the home environment stable for the kid. So, really, it's for the kids sake that custody goes to the stay-at-home mother if the father barely spends time with his family. I like the idea of the courts looking out for the children's best interests, since they had no fault in the divorce.	/r/MensRights	28/01/13 08:21 AM

I'm walking home from the grocery store and a middle-aged guy, maybe high, maybe drunk, yells at me, "Get back here, girl!"

However, shouldn't he have the right to sign an agreement with her saying he didn't want offspring, and if she wanted to keep the baby, she would assume all financial responsibility (even though that would likely not stand a chance in court)? I've also been thinking about this, because the teen pregnancy rate was something miserably high back home.

Apparently, in the state where I live, it was illegal for a man and woman who were not married to cohabit together, and it was illegal for more than four women to live together without a man in the same house (which is why we have no sororities).

This is anecdotal, but at my high school, where single motherhood was fairly common, a lot of students had deadbeat fathers.

I've been a lurker for a long time, and I once stumbled across this article trying to describe constantly being hit on from a man's point of view. I think it was the constant onslaught of interruptions and peoplee demanding this guy's attention that really drove home the point for me. The next day, another girl: “Hey, can I buy you a coffee?” This time, I was trying to work out a difficult programming solution in my mind, and she asked me at exactly the right moment to have all of my thoughts co…	/r/MensRights	28/01/13 06:34 AM

16	Circumcise Oprah Protest There was another thread in men's rights discussing this. Here is some context: 10 years ago, one infant foreskin was donated for research. Cell lines from that tissue is currently used in various skin-related projects, such as treating burn victims. Someone found out that that particular cells can produce compounds apparently useful in facial cream and commercialized a cream using those compounds. Oprah has endorsed that brand of cream. Now then, I am for the prohibition of infant circumcision …	/r/MensRights	28/01/13 06:22 AM
2	Fucking sick of seeing this images everywhere I think the point is that the average man dressing like a woman gets much more trouble than the average woman dressing like a man in the streets. You might be a gentleman and a scholar, but it doesn't mean everyone around you follows the standards of being a decent human being.	/r/MensRights	28/01/13 06:11 AM

1	“There is some stunning female chauvinism with regards to how many women think of the forced genital wounding of males as a joke, while the forced genital wounding of females is a heinous crime,” Well, apologies for not knowing that beforehand. Apparently there were infants circumcised without pain management, and there was a paper to test the efficacy of one analgesic. As I mentioned, I'm not circumcised, and my culture doesn't believe in circumcision. I did ask my American friends, and they said they remembered nothing. Thank you for the correction. And I'm not sure how you interpreted my post as being for circumcision. It was only my opinion that the path to gaining support of prohibi…	/r/MensRights	27/01/13 11:55 PM
4	“There is some stunning female chauvinism with regards to how many women think of the forced genital wounding of males as a joke, while the forced genital wounding of females is a heinous crime,” The use of HeLa cells in research is sometimes an ethical issue because they were derived from patient tissue taken without consent and used for research without with<sup>1</sup> neither her consent nor her family's consent at the time. Her family didn't find out about any of this until it was published (it would now be a breach of patient privacy) in popular magazines. The derivation of both the HeLa cell line and the cell lines from the 10 year old foreskin are potentially unethical. Yet, is s…	/r/MensRights	27/01/13 06:50 PM
10	“There is some stunning female chauvinism with regards to how many women think of the forced genital wounding of males as a joke, while the forced genital wounding of females is a heinous crime,” Edit to add: I'm glad you also actually read this miserable excuse for journalism. It has byproducts from stem cells from cell lines from one foreskin donated who knows how long 10 years ago, probably with parental permission and requisite legal paperwork. “Our TNS formula was bio-engineered from a single tissue donation collected over 10 years ago for wound healing research.” If any byproduct from that donation is problematic, then we should also stop all research worldwide on HeLa cells and di…	/r/MensRights	27/01/13 06:24 PM

9	“There is some stunning female chauvinism with regards to how many women think of the forced genital wounding of males as a joke, while the forced genital wounding of females is a heinous crime,” At least from my observation, from a culture that does not circumcise, it's bundled with religious freedom or something like that in the US. It's somehow involved for the Christians and the Jewish, both groups which have a major say in US policy. I go to a university with strong pro-religious undertones (even though it's supposedly a secular university), and so circumcision is sort of an avoided topic. A group on my campus tried to support an American Peds resolution against infant male circumci…	/r/MensRights	27/01/13 04:33 PM
2	Harassment of missing boy's father-he MUST be responsible for the boy's disappearance... Yes. When I used to read about murderers, it seemed common that when a kid disappears, parent(s) or guardian(s) are harassed as potentially being the fault of the disappearance, whether they're at fault or not.	/r/MensRights	27/01/13 06:32 AM

A lot of the ROTC students go on do work like radio, signal processing, etc. In fact, two alums said they never even saw war -- they were stationed in nuclear medicine and something secret about detecting something chemical, and got to go to Europe.
