12	“No man ever gets murdered because they are a man...” Someone who wasn't born a boy and raised to be a man, has absolutely no idea what we are taught to keep ourselves safe from the psychopaths out there. Countless lessons about how to avoid conflict because "it's not worth it" you will either get charged with assault if you win or end up paralyzed or worse if you lose. Even knowing things like how to identify when someone is looking for a fight and avoid eye contact and so on - hasn't saved countless guys in their 20s being killed with a single pu…	/r/MensRights	12/03/20 01:30 AM
2	How do we take our world back? Yeah, can't see my ex wife getting far with the whole ditch digging thing. And honestly the cheating is one of the nicest things she did to me - I'd rather she was held accountable for the other stuff instead.	/r/PussyPass	07/03/20 05:30 PM
1	Jailing Men Because of a Dream Which would be great and all if the problem areas were the targets. My father was a detective in west Australia's criminal investigation beaurea for 22 years. He was frequently interacting with police from all departments and he remembers seeing the list of known 'black spots' - any section of road with a certain number of deaths. The threshold would change from time to time. And near it on the same board a list of camera locations and traps set by police. Out of 50 locations just for Perth for …	/r/PussyPass	07/03/20 05:18 PM
7	A mother whose son was just murdered by his female partner bemoans the gender double standard in responding to domestic violence 'German man charged after Jewish people killed by bullet' 'Saudi man charged after American people killed by aircraft' Hey it works, It's a great way to make an atrocity sound like just some workplace accident.	/r/MensRights	01/03/20 10:10 AM
187	Equality, as described by society and feminists I remember my younger brother (he was in his mid 20s at the time) bragging about a situation like this. As my brother described it - He was at a theme park after hours party here in Australia. A live band and mosh pit. Some guy in the pit brought his arms down a bit quick and didn't realize a woman under him to his side. His elbow hit her face. She cries. The guy apologizes and tries to help her. She shoves him. Instantly - The crowd turns on this guy. My brother's exact words after describing t…	/r/MensRights	23/02/20 04:43 PM
3	Question, what makes you less manly? I think the answer differs from one culture to the next and is highly subjective depending on childhood experiences. Personally, if someone holds themselves accountable for their own actions - even to their detriment and has a good heart then thats manly in my book. On a lighter note, i think comedian steve hughes nailed this topic on whether gay men are manly. "So my friend comes to me and says, 'I dont like them Hughesy' 'Who?' 'The poofs, mate. I dont like them' 'Well why not?' 'Because theyr…	/r/MensRights	13/02/20 04:16 AM
18	A Lawyer's Perspective: The Police are part of the problem with the Men's Rights movement Its happening here in Perth, Western Australia too. I managed to get a restraining order (family violence order) against her, she breached it and the police refused to investigate it. No reason given, just said "its the fine print in the fine print, we had to look it up, its not a breach." But werent able to show me where they read this. Not even tell me the act it was in. I reported the department to the police conduct unit, they didnt even review the case. Just said "officer in charge acted ap…	/r/MensRights	12/02/20 07:26 AM
10	What do you think about the debate on gender and violence? Until men feel as comfortable asking for help and reporting that they got beaten up by their wives as women are when reporting their husbands - statistics and studies are meaningless. Society teaches boys from day one to just toughen up and dont complain when they get hurt as a child. While running with a first aid kit and hugs to girls at the same time. This sends a very clear message to boys that translates to them refusing to seek medical help for even the most basic health problems. How many…	/r/MensRights	05/02/20 01:15 PM
2	Define feminism in twenty five words or less Confusing protection from the dangers of the world and even their own consequences with oppression. Ask any teenager if their parents respect their rights. Edit: wording	/r/MensRights	25/01/20 11:12 AM
12	Who has ever made this argument? Her hormone fluctuations probably dont make her assault people - but I am sure that every few weeks it makes the notion of making a false police report to ruin a man who has wronged her in some way, seem like a good idea at the time. Edit: wording	/r/MensRights	20/01/20 07:32 PM
21	Women can never be the problem. It always has to be blamed on men "treating women poorly." So by that rationale, all those boys raised by stay at home mothers who were mercilessly beaten and verbally abused for every mistake by that mother to keep them in line - grew up to use that violence that they internalized and after 18 years of it and now use it as a defense mechanism against women since its how that gender raised them? I mean you could write it off as "well the first woman in his life taught him "if you dont act the way i expect i hit you until you do" every day for 18 years s…	/r/MensRights	14/01/20 07:58 AM
3	I shared about men's rights concerns with a feminist and she said the problems men face are consequences of male patriarchy and men's fault anyway. Since women were home raising the men who caused these problems we are facing today. Because you know the patriarchy and all that keeping them out of the military, workforce and voting booths all those years. They cant exactly wash their hands of the result of their parenting. A few generations after Family Court start automatically giving sole custody to fathers they can blame us for that too. Until then tell her to have a coke and a smile and enjoy reaping what her gender has sown.	/r/MensRights	05/01/20 03:13 AM
3	Is feminism a huge factor of male depression and suicide? Thank you for the well thought out and insightful contributions to the discussion. I am sure your wise words have stopped countless suicides.	/r/MensRights	23/12/19 01:16 AM
3	When social norms disfavor men, society seems to accept them and ignore the inequality. Perfect timing with this post, i got this response today from someone dismissing exactly that with a blanket statement "be responsible and pull your own weight" is allegedly the reason men kill themselves	/r/MensRights	22/12/19 09:21 PM
6	Is feminism a huge factor of male depression and suicide? If you havent been exposed to this, thats one thing and its not a shame to just say that. Infact i envy you. The message you mention is out there but it is not the only message being transmitted. Insisting that "be responsible and pull your own weight" is the only message or that men are killing themselves in droves because they are being told to be responsible is insensitive to the people affected at best. I have tried to help guys who are paraplegics and even quadriplegics seek some form of pr…	/r/MensRights	22/12/19 09:18 PM
24	Is feminism a huge factor of male depression and suicide? I think its a combination of a lot of things. The problem with stats on our genders health is that we are trained, relentlessly from birth til death that our pain and suffering should be hidden and denied at all costs. So the irony of groups out there citing stats on how many men are in any risk groups prior to suicide or death are a fraction of the actual number. Women always complain how their boyfriend, husband, son or brother wont go see a GP when he has the flu or food poisoning but then th…	/r/MensRights	21/12/19 05:58 AM
1	If we were to wipe the family courts off the map and start fresh, what would make for a better alternative? Have your say: In australia they have recently started a conversation in parliament - basically one side asked two simple questions Why arent there ever any remotely positive stories to come out of family court? Why is the family court still allowed to act like its the 1980s? There have been studies and some reports submitted by various organizations. Its still being heavily debated though. I will try find the link to the document. Its calling for oversight and accountability of court officials. Followup with …	/r/MensRights	21/12/19 12:23 AM
4	We always complaining about the family courts but has anyone created a new alternative model to replace the family court system that we could present to government? In australia they have recently. Its still being debated though I will try find the link to the document. Its calling for oversight and accountability of court officials. Followup with children years after the case is over to see how their decisions affected the children. No contact orders between parents being introduced and able to being able to be put in place immediately for cases where family violence is an issue Empowering local magistrates to handle family court matters instead of funnell…	/r/MensRights	20/12/19 05:14 AM

3	'The system's stacked against the man, you can't win' - Father demands changes in Family Court after mother kills two daughters I have been diagnosed with PTSD as a result of the above happening right after escaping the abusive relationship. So while i feel like im doing ok there are teams of professionals who disagree. I am using the time i have to myself these days to prepare everything to be released to the media. I would very much like to get in contact with the guy in the article at some point and will attempt to reach out to him. Partially because i want to put his case in front of the magistrate during trial after…	/r/MensRights	10/12/19 10:54 AM
14	'The system's stacked against the man, you can't win' - Father demands changes in Family Court after mother kills two daughters Recently there was a conversation in Canberra about this and a document compiled calling for accountability in the Family Court. I forget the politicians name but he asked why arent there any good stories coming out of Family Court in the last 30 years? Why is it the only court to be still conducting itself as if it were the early 80s Family Law and Family Violence Under further reading theres some really good documents where they are outlining things like no professional should be above oversig…	/r/MensRights	09/12/19 06:15 PM
19	'The system's stacked against the man, you can't win' - Father demands changes in Family Court after mother kills two daughters I am currently experiencing this in my own FCWA case. I was the stay at home father for first 4 years of kids life without incident. Ex left me for another guy in 3rd year of that. I start dating a year later after getting kids settled to new routine. Ex finds out, demands to move back in, i decline and get a VRO to stop her antisocial responses infront of kids. she lies about sexual abuse morning after VRO served.
