3	Why is this happening I guess I'll be the detractor here and say I've got not problem with this. Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts are significantly different organization and focus on very different things. If you are a kid who likes the activities that Boy Scouts undertake, then join the boy scouts. If you're a kid who like the activities that Girl Scouts do, then join the Girl Scouts. Personally, I don't think it goes far enough since they're still planning to keep the boys and girls separate. They're kids. Just let them…	/r/MensRights	12/10/17 01:55 PM
7	When someone is acquitted of rape, it does not mean the accuser is lying [The Guardian] When someone is acquitted of rape, it is multiple choice: the accuser is lying the accuser is mistaken about what is and isn't rape a rape occurred, but there is insufficient evidence to prove so beyond a reasonable doubt. Any other options?	/r/MensRights	11/10/17 05:43 PM
16	As a "feminist," I'm pleasantly surprised by this sub TRP has techniques that are effective for attracting a particular type of woman. Whether that equates to "valid arguments" is debatable and depends upon the context of the argument.	/r/MensRights	11/10/17 05:40 PM
10	Stealthing to be classified as rape. No word on lying about birth control or poking holes in condoms. I read something a couple weeks ago that if you try to find the first use of "stealthing" in this context on the internet, you find it originated with a HuffPo article claiming it was commonplace.	/r/MensRights	09/10/17 11:28 PM

If so, and you exercised that option, and sex was had, you were raped. If so, and you failed to exercise that option, that is consent. Regretted consent does not invalidate consent.	/r/MensRights	09/10/17 11:24 PM

-1	Teacher has sex with a 15 year old and is only expected to serve 6 months in jail. Her charges are also called "consensual sex" instead of "statutory rape." I disagree regardless, but there is nothing in the article suggesting that the guy in question was one of her students. It actually sounds like she was a substitute teacher or something similar and likely had very little, if any, control over the boy's grades.	/r/MensRights	09/10/17 07:31 PM

2	What do you think of the alleged rape statistics? I think the problem is a lot of people, encouraged by feminists and a feminist agenda, use the word "rape" to describe something other than non-consensual sexual penetration. As a result, a lot (perhaps even a majority) of claims of rape aren't actually rape once you hear the details. If the opportunity to decline sex is available and you fail to exercise that option, you weren't raped just because you regret the decision you made. And the circumstances of your choice don't really matter. If you…	/r/MensRights	09/10/17 07:19 PM
2	Men and False Allegations of Rape Keep in mind that the only honest answer to the question is that we honestly have no idea what percentage of rape accusations are false. For any given accusation, unless one party confesses, there is really no way of knowing whether to put it into the "rape" or "false accusation" category. There can be pretty compelling evidence for one or the other, but there is typically going to be some level of doubt. I think one are to explore where progress could be made is getting a standardized and agree…	/r/MensRights	09/10/17 01:41 PM
2	I'm a startup founder and I had sex with an investor — and I am sorry \| Woman takes responsibility for using her sexuality to get ahead in business and the resulting consequences of that behaviour. This is an interesting contrast to the Harvey Weinstein story. I get it. You shouldn't have to flirt with, much less be intimate with a guy you're not otherwise interested in just because it will advance your career and make you a lot of money. But on the other hand, flirting or being intimate with a guy does open up doors that wouldn't otherwise be open. So who is doing the exploiting and who is being oppressed here? Is it the woman who chooses to use her sexuality to advance herself, or is it …	/r/MensRights	09/10/17 12:46 PM

8	Female reporter who was insulted by Cam Newton's sexist comments apologizes herself after tweets surface of her using the N-word and enjoying her 'father's racist jokes about Navajo land' Not sure how you can interpret it as not sexist. Imagine if Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady got a question about reading defenses from a black beat reporter and started laughing and said "it's funny to get a question about defensive reads from a black dude". Yeah, that's racist. Cam's statement was sexist and we shouldn't be defending it.	/r/MensRights	07/10/17 01:57 AM

10	Do men really have it worse than women? a girl was raped, pointed out the rapist, and no one believes her Feminists often confuse "not believing" with either (a) not having enough evidence to prosecute rape, (b) not having enough information to agree or disagree (and asking questions to obtain the information is seen as disagreement) or (b) not agreeing that what happened was rape. Feminists think that a person should be able to say "I was raped" and that's the end of it. The person should just be believed. But simultaneously, feminis…	/r/MensRights	06/10/17 06:36 PM
1	Should fathers expect as much parental leave as mothers? I'd be interested to read the actual policy (or the paywalled WSJ article that the VERGE references). I have a feeling there is some interpretation and/or missing information in the linked article. I don't think that a policy that blatantly states "paid parental leave is 20 weeks for women and 6 weeks for men" would be even close to legal. I suspect that the additional 14 weeks granted to women is some other type of benefit that the article is just equating to parental leave.	/r/MensRights	05/10/17 08:55 PM
1	Should fathers expect as much parental leave as mothers? Individuals in America are free to negotiate the terms of their employment with their employer. If parental leave is important to you - regardless of gender - negotiate that with your employer. Offer to cut compensation, or vacation time, or health benefits if parental leave is actually important to you. If your employer doesn't provide a compensation package that is acceptable to you, find another employer who will. If no employer will offer you a compensation package that is acceptable to you,…	/r/MensRights	05/10/17 06:27 PM

For good or bad, I think I can think like a feminist (I'd say good, because it is easier to understand and oppose them if you know how their mind works. The key to this whole thing is the ambiguity in the word "consent". We all pretty much agree that there are instances where you can agree to have sex, but not actually be consenting to that sex. Classic example is having a gun to your head and being told "have sex or I'll …	/r/MensRights	27/09/17 07:32 PM

Women, especially the types of women included in this article, are much more likely to seek work that is "fulfilling" while men are much more likely to seek work that "pays me the most coin".

It is because some people are bad. And people who want to molest children are going to be more likely to seek out vulnerable single mothers with children.	/r/MensRights	21/09/17 02:25 PM
2	Who Gets to Define Campus Rape? \| Two feminists claim that rape should be whatever "survivors" say it is. Slippery slope indeed... This makes it a race to be the first one to call it rape.

Thanks feminism. When you make decisions that you don't want to make because of social pressure and emotional manipulation, they result in regret. The solution is to (a) live with regret or (b) don't make decisions you don't want to because of social pressure and emotional manipulation. In other words, the problem is with the person making the regrettable decision, not with society or emotional manipulation. The solution is to learn to make better decisions.

The word you're looking for is regret.	/r/MensRights	20/09/17 05:49 PM
8	The problem with how men perceive rape \| Professional victim explains how her saying "yes" to sex and regretting it later is all men's fault because she has no agency and can't make decisions for herself. Thanks feminism. We all know that consent can be withdrawn at any time, so any "yes" expires as soon as a "no" is uttered. But am I to understand that the reverse is not true? A "no" never expires? But the fact that these aren’t criminal acts doesn’t mean that they’re not violating or traumatic or wrong. Yes. When you do something you regret it can be traumatic.

10	The problem with how men perceive rape \| Professional victim explains how her saying "yes" to sex and regretting it later is all men's fault because she has no agency and can't make decisions for herself. Thanks feminism. The author repeatedly uses various versions of the phrase "sex you don't particularly want". That has nothing to do with rape or consent. Sex with someone who doesn't want that sex isn't rape, or even morally wrong. Sex with someone who doesn't consent to sex is rape (and wrong). Having sex with someone who doesn't consent is on the rapist. But CONSENTING TO SEX THAT YOU DON'T PARTICULARLY WANT IS ON YOU!. That isn't your partner's fault, that's YOUR fault. If you don't particularly want sex, do…	/r/MensRights	20/09/17 05:15 PM
36	If both parties were drunk, how can only one be accused of rape? Even putting aside the physical challenges of it, why? If your intent is to have sex with a sleeping person, isn't trying to haul their limp carcass on top of you pretty much the worst possible way to go about it? Not only is it pretty much the greatest risk of having them wake up, but it is much less effective sex. Simply makes no sense and I'd hope the jury realizes that.	/r/MensRights	20/09/17 04:59 PM
