4	How does this stuff on TwoX get to the front page? "Men are at fault for everything.", basically. "All men are rapists and that's all they are" -- Marilyn French, Authoress; (later, advisoress to Al Gore's Presidential Campaign.) Just in case: At one point in the book the character Val says "all men are rapists". This quote has often been incorrectly attributed to Marilyn French herself. French's first book was a thesis on James Joyce.[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marilyn_French EDIT: Sorry, this quote explains it better (with the correct reference): Critics accused Marilyn French of bei…	/r/MensRights	07/08/12 08:07 PM
1	Can We Please Make A List of Precautions/Advice to Prevent Some of The Stories Here? Yeah, I almost completely agree with you. I just fear that by saying things like that you may be propagating the idea yourself, which I think, hurts men everywhere. It would be better if you pre-phase it with something like "sociologically" or even a simple "if" so it doesn't seem that you think it's universal.	/r/MensRights	28/07/12 05:06 PM
1	TIL A woman cannot legally be convicted of rape in the UK. (X-post from r/todayilearned) Oh, OK. Thanks for the clarification. But isn't that 80% in the lifetime number, not in the last 12 months?	/r/MensRights	28/07/12 04:31 PM
0	Can We Please Make A List of Precautions/Advice to Prevent Some of The Stories Here? I agree with all of what you said, except for this part: Think with your head, not with your hormones. Even though you believe it's true, I don't think it's a good idea to express it as a universal truth. It just propagates the idea that men are sexual machines who can't think when they want sex.	/r/MensRights	28/07/12 04:25 PM
1	TIL A woman cannot legally be convicted of rape in the UK. (X-post from r/todayilearned) Just to clarify, that's not by women. That's men who were forced to penetrate, an action that can also be done by a man. Although, from the lifetime percentage, more than 90% of men who were 'made to penetrate', were forced solely by women. But there are no number for that in the 12 month. EDIT: Also, it doesn't matter how many times a woman raped a man to made that into law. Even if it didn't happen at all it doesn't mean there shouldn't be a law against it.	/r/MensRights	28/07/12 04:19 PM
3	Even among my friends.... (I unfriended her) ((I'm the one not painted over)) [facebook screen] The "patriarchy" theory does not mean that only men treat women as servants, but that the whole culture tends to portray women as in need of help. It means that men and women can perpetuate it.	/r/MensRights	22/07/12 02:47 PM

1	I got tired of seeing that 'stop rape' graphic with all of the 'helpful' tips on not raping...so I created a graphic for the other side of the issue Yeah, the source would be nice.	/r/MensRights	18/07/12 10:17 AM
5	I got tired of seeing that 'stop rape' graphic with all of the 'helpful' tips on not raping...so I created a graphic for the other side of the issue I was replying to Totenglocke42 who said that: Yet those same courts claim that a drunk person is in their right mind and of sound judgement if they commit rape. What I was saying is that it doesn't matter if you are drunk if you committed rape, not that it's always rape when a woman is drunk. Basically, that the right mind and sound judgement of the offender at the moment of the crime does not matter when the crime has already been established. So if a drunk man and a drunk woman consent to sex…	/r/MensRights	17/07/12 04:59 PM
34	I got tired of seeing that 'stop rape' graphic with all of the 'helpful' tips on not raping...so I created a graphic for the other side of the issue Well, if you commit murder while drunk you still committed murder. I.e. it doesn't matter if the offender is of right mind at the moment of the crime.	/r/MensRights	17/07/12 12:05 PM
2	Gender profiling in traffic stops: When compared with men, women were 23 percent less likely to be ticketed, 55 percent less likely to be arrested and 76 percent less likely to be searched when stopped by police. Thanks!	/r/MensRights	11/07/12 07:17 PM
2	Gender profiling in traffic stops: When compared with men, women were 23 percent less likely to be ticketed, 55 percent less likely to be arrested and 76 percent less likely to be searched when stopped by police. FTA: "It is possible that racial and gender differences are explained by some of the controls, such as the reason for the stop, driving frequency and other demographics," Briggs said. "But it's also possible that when considering all these other controls, racial profiling still stands. My analysis shows that race and gender do still matter in traffic stops, even controlling for many of these other factors." I don't get this part. Does this means that the differences could be explained by some of…	/r/MensRights	11/07/12 06:30 PM
-1	I was in a room full of women when this commercial came on I got looked at like I was Satan himself. They are NOT 'two different things'...they are the SAME thing, but your hypocritical way of viewing this subject won't ALLOW you to see that. Sorry about that. Really I misspoke. They are two different things in the sense that are viewed by society. I only said it because you said this: Is that why, to this very day, not one govt funded anti rape of males campaign exists? Again, I said it wrong and I apologize for that. What I was saying is that you bringing the topic of rape on males is not the…	/r/MensRights	09/07/12 06:39 PM
-2	I was in a room full of women when this commercial came on I got looked at like I was Satan himself. And why the fuck are you grouping women and children together? Is it because male children are abused by women FAR MORE than they are by men, and you want to make it easier? I'm not doing that. I don't like to do that, and I'm sorry if it seemed that way. I was talking about what society thinks about. I separated it because I wanted to be clear that most people think that there is no rape on males but a lot of rape on females/kids. Not that I think that way. Just pointing out that most people th…	/r/MensRights	09/07/12 05:05 PM
-5	I was in a room full of women when this commercial came on I got looked at like I was Satan himself. I agree with you that there is a problem when there is a lack of studies on the topic and a lack of campaigns to counter it. Either way, you are mixing two different things. One is the rape on males, which, sadly, has gone unnoticed; the other one is rape on female and kids. When I talk about rape, and when most people I've talked about rape, think of the rape of women and kids, most of the times they can think of a female or a male offender. Again, as I say, YMMV. Again, if you were saying that…	/r/MensRights	09/07/12 04:25 PM
-6	I was in a room full of women when this commercial came on I got looked at like I was Satan himself. You need a study proving that the common understanding of 'rape' is a male having sex with a female without her consent? Tell you what, type "define:rape" into Google and tell me what comes up. Wow! Didn't know that about Google. What I find more disturbing is that I don't found the source for 'man' in their definition. Do you know if there's a way to change that? From my experience, I find that most people understand that women can commit rape, too, and when they think of rape they don't usuall…	/r/MensRights	09/07/12 03:36 PM
-13	I was in a room full of women when this commercial came on I got looked at like I was Satan himself. Mhmm... I'm not sure about that. Not saying that you are wrong, but I would need a study to back that up.	/r/MensRights	09/07/12 03:13 PM
0	I was in a room full of women when this commercial came on I got looked at like I was Satan himself. Not in Canada it seems. But I could be wrong, didn't do the whole research.	/r/MensRights	09/07/12 03:07 PM
-5	I was in a room full of women when this commercial came on I got looked at like I was Satan himself. Although I get your point, nowhere in the ad does it say that men are the ones 'abusing', so, in this case, they are not demonizing men.	/r/MensRights	09/07/12 02:47 PM
7	Austria med school gives women grading edge. The university is grading men and women differently based on gender. Ah, if only more women had this much self-respect. If only more people thought like that. It's not only women who created this problem.	/r/MensRights	09/07/12 02:40 PM
