1	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. De pot verwijt de ketel.	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 11:38 PM
1	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. Then you're twice the ignoramus.	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 11:15 PM
1	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. Go back to your first comment: you showed disrespect, claimed it was my own fault (which it isn't) because you lack a general awareness of underlying societal structures that make it more likely for certain demographics to be discriminated against in certain situations. And before you mention my behavior: you bet I'll give a vexed response at such rude ignorance. Empathy is a wonderful trait, even if it hasn't happened to you, accept that it does to others.	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 07:51 PM
1	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. 100% If you were as "deferential" as you claimed, you wouldn't be so dismissive of people's experiences.	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 07:35 PM

1	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. Doll-face isn't a compliment when you're being treated as inferior in comparison to your male co-workers or as a piece of office decoration. I may be as pretty as a flower, but I sure as fuck ain't one.	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 06:22 PM
1	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. I understand that you want the focus to be on females but that is counter productive, as you see by all the backlash and ‘what about men.’ No, the focus needs to be on treating the individual with dignity. Rape, domestic abuse all of that needs to be taken seriously no matter who it happens to. My uncle had a violently abusive girlfriend and he tried to diminish the severity of the situation so as not to look weak. She was a crazy psychotic stalking bitch and the police didn't take it seriously …	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 03:09 PM
2	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. Your fellow feminists often defend the policy of making raped males pay Those are feminists not worthy of the name and they, like men who deny the problems women encounter, should be ashamed of themselves (such as the people here who downvoted my comment where I quoted personal experiences where I was the victim of sexism and sexual harassment at work, nice going, you guys). I've been downvoted on the feminist sub for relating male to female issues. I don't give a shit, it's about eradicating th…	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 02:59 PM
1	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. Raped males (or those who have experienced "unwanted contact" with a woman in feminist terminology) have child support They should NOT have to pay child support if they were raped by the woman. It's not their duty to take care of a rape baby, just as it's not a woman's duty to carry a pregnancy like that to term. If they chose to, however, that's fine. But nobody should be forced into it. Rape needs to be taken seriously regardless of who it happens to. My wife could have gotten a tubal ligation…	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 02:05 PM
1	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. First, thanks for not being a dick, some down here have been quite mean. Second: You actively seek ways to exclude us from protective laws by making them female centric. I've only seen this happen in debates on reproductive rights, which is fair. Why? because it's an issue of bodily autonomy. If a woman doesn't want a baby but the man does, he cannot force her to continue a pregnancy as he would then lay claim onto her body and take away her choice, which leads to gestational slavery (also a ver…	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 01:01 PM
0	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. Go enroll in some history and sociology courses (you sound college-aged and therefore still unworldly), actually pay attention, and don't deny centuries-long systemic oppression. I, and fellow women working in my industry, deal with sexist "hey, doll-face" bullshit every day. Just browse the "Female Filmmakers" group on Facebook. We need to work harder to be taken seriously. It's why we've aligned ourselves, it's why we support POC because they deal with the prejudice too. Thank God the industry…	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 12:49 PM
2	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. Like I told the other guy: your hatred for feminism is so entrenched into your way of thinking that you refuse to see that the overall message we're trying to convey isn't bad or anti-man. The issues have all become so interlinked these labels of groups dealing with unfairness and injustice have become synonyms. If you're truly an equalist, we're on the same side. We just use different names (I go by many depending on the situation) and maybe we need a new term for an all inclusionary movement. …	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 03:20 AM
-1	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. In these cases I often find people read what they want to read due to a deeply ingrained prejudice towards anything that even resembles feminist discourse. We aren't anti-men, we love men, but we don't love it when some among you think we're angry over-privileged feminazis.	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 02:25 AM
-6	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. I may live in a modern Western society, but I am still not taken as seriously in my industry because I'm a woman, just like some men are regarded with disdain because they want to work with kids and everyone thinks they're a pedo, or if they're lucky: gay. As if your average heterosexual male wouldn't want to teach kindergarten without ulterior motives. But men often belittle me because they think I'm just a ditzy little girl incapable of deep or original thought or... they try to fuck me which …	/r/MensRights	12/03/19 12:53 AM
1	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. I did not say that. I referred those who don't agree with the fact anyone rational should see we all share (or should share) a common goal. All the self-identified feminists (male or female) I know in real life share my views. We're of the social democratic ecofeminist variety. You know, universal health care, affordable education, don't eat meat, grow hemp because apparently you can do everything with that shit. It's not gonna benefit anyone or the planet if we all keep distrusting each other a…	/r/MensRights	11/03/19 11:14 PM
1	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. Then they, like everyone else who stubbornly refuses to see we've all got a common goal here, need to open their eyes.	/r/MensRights	11/03/19 10:56 PM
0	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. Sometimes definitions need to be redefined. Like "losing one's virginity" and "murder", those are often just plain archaic or simplistic, but I digress. You focus on the women's rights aspect, I focus on the importance of equality and fairness. Feminism has transcended its early boundaries. We're concerned about racism, LGBTQ issues, the economy, the environment, children's and animal rights and, yeah, the problems men deal with too. Intersectionality has become a big part of the movement. It's …	/r/MensRights	11/03/19 10:40 PM
0	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. First of all, last time I checked inside my shirt I had lady boobs not moobs. Second of all, if you've read my previous comment you'll notice I mentioned true feminism promotes egalitarian and humanist ideas. People, despite their differences, being given equal opportunity without bias.	/r/MensRights	11/03/19 10:18 PM
-2	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. Then what, pray tell, is the solution?	/r/MensRights	11/03/19 10:09 PM
-4	We teach boys that a girl that does the same as them are braver. This may have been true 50 years ago but definitely not today. Yes, the old lions in charge of patriarchy! 🦁 But seriously though: feminism, true feminism, wants a world where people's differences are accepted and celebrated, where everyone gets humane rights and equal opportunities in terms of career and education despite of who they are or where they came from. We're all unique individuals, but that doesn't mean we don't all deserve the same dignity and respect. A fringe-group of feminazis don't represent all women, just like incels don't represent all me…	/r/MensRights	11/03/19 06:52 PM
7	A Doctor’s opinion on infant circumcision It's genital mutilation. While it's not as bad as FGM, you're still snipping a little boy's dick for no sound medical reasons. There are supposed hygienic benefits, but they're so slim or non-existent it's a futile procedure. Sometimes, when older, a man will need circumcision because his foreskin is wrapped too tight around his willy. But that's rare. Where I'm from (Western Europe), we generally don't do this. It's only certain groups like the Muslims or the Jews who do it for religious reason…	/r/MensRights	11/03/19 02:31 PM

1	Man sues abortion clinic for aborting his child without his consent Hey, man, you gotta simmer down with the hate. The idea you have of feminism is wrong. Feminists advocate for equal rights for anyone regardless of sex, race, gender or religion. Because we believe everyone is worthy of the same respect and dignity. I use many labels to refer to what I am: feminist, egalitarian, humanist. They're loose synonyms because they strive towards the same thing. If you're an ecofeminist like me, you'll also extend that value and care onto animals outside of us humans an…	/r/MensRights	11/03/19 12:54 PM
0	Man sues abortion clinic for aborting his child without his consent If it's wanted, I will, but lovingly. "My little parasite. Leech off my nutrients until we can reenact that scene from Alien, which I will show you once I've deemed you mature enough. Though that's not always a guarantee. Mommy could watch the Sixth Sense when she was 7, you know. There was ghost puke and everything. But got nightmares from Mars Attacks! at that age. It's funny how that works."	/r/MensRights	11/03/19 11:47 AM
0	Man sues abortion clinic for aborting his child without his consent I'm a feminist who likes kids. I respect people who don't want kids though, even though I want them someday, adopted (and biological) because I know I'd be a kickass mom. I'm also pro-choice because pregnancies take a huge physical and emotional toll on your body. Children are also a massive responsibility for which you need to be 100% ready and willing, mostly for their sake because they deserve it.	/r/MensRights	10/03/19 11:56 PM
