For the rest of my life, when someone searches my name on the internet, the word “rape” will appear somewhere among the results."A lot of people here have said that, it's not a rare opinion that gets down votes here. It's an incredibly popular one, which is interesting because the MRM claims to be a human rights organisation. But don't tell me you think all women are incapable of lying. Why would I think that? Everyone is capable of lying. What I'm saying is that it's repulsive that an organisation that claims not to hate women and belittle rape victims would ever say such outrageous things, especially considering there a… | /r/MensRights | 29/06/14 10:15 PM |

For the rest of my life, when someone searches my name on the internet, the word “rape” will appear somewhere among the results."I'm sorry for what happened to you, and I'm glad you've found here to be a positive environment, but I've lost count of the threads and comments where it's discussed that "most cases of rape are regretted drunk sex". When I'm back at my laptop I'll link you to some. Heck, even at their conference once speaker said that women use saying they've been raped after regretting drunken sex as a "get out of jail free card".

| 1 | "10-year-old suspended over finger gun:". I think a lot of these zero-tolerance rules at schools are designed to shame and weaken boys.I didn't notice that they weren't the same poster, which looking back is kind of obvious. You're implying that the fall out (this boy getting in trouble) is a natural course of action and that gun control is the solution. What would your solution be? I'm not from the US but I know that no children where I'm from have gotten suspended from school for making a shooting motion with their hands.

I think a lot of these zero-tolerance rules at schools are designed to shame and weaken boys.I can understand being frustrated at being lumped in with nutters if you're from a hunting background. I guess the difference here is in where we're looking at it from. Given my upbringing in a country where firearms are very restricted, I view this point of yours as being invalid: Not having a legally obtained gun isn't going to stop shootings. It isn't going to stop mass killings. People who are doing bad things don't care about going through proper legal channels to obtain weapons. There have… | /r/MensRights | 18/06/14 04:42 PM |

If you don't have a problem with the hysteria in your country over guns and school shootings then why do you care if young children are suspended for playing? If you believe that it's acceptable for every citizen to own firearms and for access to weapons to be incredibly easy and straightforward, why do you have a problem with the inevitable fallout of innocent people getting shot while living their lives and terror of school shootings being… | /r/MensRights | 18/06/14 11:49 AM |

I think a lot of these zero-tolerance rules at schools are designed to shame and weaken boys.You don't think that this is an issue about America's relationship with guns rather than it being about "the feminists"? I've literally never heard of a child in Europe being suspended for making a shooting action with their hand. And that includes a good many what I'm sure you'd refer to as "feminist nanny-states". Wouldn't it make more sense to question gun culture and hysteria in America rather than blindly blaming this on feminists? | /r/MensRights | 18/06/14 11:15 AM |

I'm not talking about the risks everyone takes by going outside of being mugged or attacked (which are very preventable with the right kinds of social initiatives (the city I'm currently living in has one third the level of crime than the city in from)).

So where are you getting "men have been told to decent themselves for hundreds of years"? sprinkle in the first world are so coddled it's retarded. Reality is reality. Rape and murder happen.

| 1 | As a woman, I came here expecting a load of bull, as the media portrays it..psychopaths Do you really think all sexual assaults are being committed by mentally ill people? Aside from the fact that the vast majority of rapes are carried out by someone the victim knows, if you think the swathes of mentally ill people roaming the streets are the only ones doing the raping, maybe we should look at improving mental health services instead of throwing our hands in the air and saying "shit happens, deal with it". | /r/MensRights | 12/06/14 05:01 AM |

I understand standing up for yourself, and being confident and physically fit, but I don't think it's fair to be telling one gender that they need classes to defend themselves against another. Does it not depress you that we have to tell women to learn how to defend themselves against men? It depresses the hell out of me.

Carry mace, learn a self defense course. I always find this insulting to men. It implies that they can't control themselves and will rape when they see an opportunity, and that self-defence classes are all that are keeping them off you. You shouldn't need to learn a self-defence course, people should just not attack you.

Here, and here and here, and here are articles that discuss how advocacy groups aren't happy with all Pope Francis has done towards the sex scandals.

| -1 | Feminism "puts women on the level of a vindictive battle": Pope FrancisI'm well aware of that, also part of the reason I said the church was anti-women. As this is the men's rights sub I didn't think you'd be interested in me listing off the ways in which the church has actively hurt women, rather I thought I would give an example of how they've abused boys and men too. It's not a competition, there's no need to turn it into one. The church has only ever acted in its own best interests, and I thought it was outrageous that members of this sub were able to put aside… | /r/MensRights | 11/06/14 02:39 PM |

I grew up with this surrounding me and yes, it does hit close to home. It sickens me what those men got away with, and the fact that the Vatican knew and did nothing to stop it completely enrages me. Your last sentence is strange, I never blamed the pope for what an individual priest did, I'm saying he's complicit in what was essentially a cover-up by the church that enabled known paedophiles to continue to have access to, and to s… | /r/MensRights | 11/06/14 02:24 PM |

Also, u/lafielle had made it look like a footnote and no one has mentioned it since that one small reference to it.
