| – | DAE object to the mainstream gaming media's characterization of the core gaming community being hostile to women?I totally and completely agree with this. However, in general, female psychology is very different from male psychology and vice versa. As such, we should allow our conduct to reflect that. Again, remove the generalizations and it gets more complicated, but the essence of that principle applies. To be clear, this paradigm of women and men being in all of the same places at the same time is relatively new. We need to figure out a nice balance for men and women rather than what feels best for wome… | /r/MensRights | 06/11/12 11:44 PM |

| – | Bus driver involved in incident with woman has been firedYou can easily restrain someone without uppercutting them. With the force he hit her with, he was putting her at risk for severe neck injuries. There were several different ways he could have handled that situation better. However, I do not agree with her getting the slap on the wrist. I think both should be punished, her more severely than him. To be clear, he had every right to use force in response. He just used too much in the wrong way. We can sit here and talk about gender equality and if … | /r/MensRights | 06/11/12 07:14 PM |

| 1 | How to respond to and deal with female-on-male sexual harassment?For one, depending on the organization, your boss may not even have any obligations. However, going over your boss's head for anything is a potential can of worms you're opening. Invariably, people in authority over you do not like being subverted by you. This could cause problems for you later on, and you won't be able to prove it. There's always a way to justify an action, be it a bad review, you not being promoted, etc. As long as HR takes care of it, there is no need to do anything else.

| 1 | You know , i saw this and am dumbstruck , its horrific what this woman went through but when you hear her talk about the fact she has found good in men even after what happened shows just how petty some man haters are .I don't think it's directed at all men. And when a person suffers that kind of abuse from a parent at that early of an age, it is extremely common for the child to associate negative things from the whole gender of that particular parent for the rest of their lives. I will agree that she's still touched in the head. It's understandable though. It sounds like she, her brother, and her mom went through hell and back again. | /r/MensRights | 05/11/12 11:36 PM |
| 13 | I guess gay men are objectifying women too.As a straight guy I don't like it when women do this. In fact, I have had both men and women criticize the way I dress while touching me, and it does make me extremely uncomfortable--not just because they are touching me in places I would prefer them not to, but because I like the way I dress. | /r/MensRights | 05/11/12 11:05 PM |

| 7 | TIL that I am pregnant. My SO absolutely wants to keep it, while I haven't yet decided. How do I go about making a decision that would be best for me and my life, and yet respects his rights and say in this matter as well?Keep in mind that the longer you're pregnant, the mor oxytocin you and the child will release. During birth, you and the child will both release a lot of oxytocin. What will probably end up happening is that you will either not want to give the baby up or will give the baby up and will regret it later. It's extremely emotionally stressful to go through with it and then just give up the child. It's a huge investment on your part with zero payout. | /r/MensRights | 04/11/12 04:48 PM |

| 3 | What does Mens Rights do for women, and what makes it different from feminism?Well feminism is supposedly egalitarian, but they seek to achieve this by ending the oppression against women and then magically men's issues will disappear because patriarchy. The MRM rejects patriarchy theory and instead substitute the idea that there is simply a scale of privileges vs. discriminations for each group. We believe the benefits for men are less than women and that the discriminations for men are greater than women.

When you look at the rights of fathers, it is entirely too easy for the mother to unilaterally strip the father of his right and financial investment to being part of his child's life, thereby rendering the point moot. We see this rather prevalently within society. Furthermore, regardless of child support payments or not, men are being forced to financ… | /r/MensRights | 02/11/12 08:56 PM |

There is one benefit of circumcision that isn't mitigated by diligence of contraception and hygiene: penile cancer.

| 1 | men's rights I want your opinion!Yes, and the official line for feminism is that this applies to men too. However, they don't like to focus on male rape a lot. For one, the statistics that have come out about male rape put the figure far lower than women. Second, feminism is still under the assumption that men are privileged over women because they place less value on the ways by which women are privileged. For example, the right to work has never been a right for men--it has always been an obligation. Meanwhile, as a white man… | /r/MensRights | 29/10/12 04:35 PM |

There is either an ignorance of the movement's existence and--because they believe feminism actually has an eye out for gender equality--therefore the MRM is not necessary or they have heard of the MRM as a movement of misogyny that wants to return to the repression of women.

| 1 | Trying to learn. How would you respond to this type of mentality?In response to your example in part A, mugging of an intimidating and violent nature often happens quickly in a public space or in a secluded space. What we are talking about here is a public space. The instance of rape being described is also presumably of a covert nature. When one traditionally thinks of mugging, one thinks of a violent or otherwise intimidating attack. However, that's not the case here. Furthermore, to maintain the covert nature of the rape, the perpetrator would not be able … | /r/MensRights | 25/10/12 11:43 PM |

| – | Trying to learn. How would you respond to this type of mentality?From the male perspective--at least my own--if someone gropes you or rapes you covertly in a public space and you want to stop the problem, it is unreasonable to suggest that one remains powerless as a woman or threatened by an Oscar-winning display of alerting others to the situation. It's not victim blaming at all to state post hoc that a.) the victim in these situations had power, not to prevent the abuse, but stop the abuse and b.) that it is their fault in part that the refusal to stop the … | /r/MensRights | 25/10/12 07:23 PM |

If you will allow me to indulge in my intuition, you don't view it as abuse because you feel empowered by your views and the information you arm yourself with.

This is exactly the type of stuff the MRM is working towards. I would suggest that you seek counseling, life coaching, or therapy.

| – | Has anyone weighed in on the discussion on Sci-Fi about woman dressed as Black Cat?By this logic, covering up and dressing plainly reduces oneself to being boring and plain. It also predicts that wearing blue jeans and a band t-shirt reduces that person to a fan of that band and possibly depressed, though the jeans are open to interpretation. | /r/MensRights | 20/10/12 01:35 AM |

And if we want to talk about what she is dressed like, it's a sexualized comic book character. I don't know what you're talking about when it comes to "[activating] male sexual instinct" when I have never seen cleavage and started mobbing the girl about her tits nor have I had an impulse or compulsion to do so.

| 3 | Has anyone weighed in on the discussion on Sci-Fi about woman dressed as Black Cat?I believe that all people have the right to insist on being viewed as more than the size of their breasts, fitness of physique, or any other sexualized physical attribute. I don't think it's wrong to notice and point out such things when they are on display, but to ignore the person within that body is disgusting.

| – | Why the MRM will never supercede feminism.They apparently didn't cover the period of time in which the Civil Rights Movement took place in your "history" lessons in school.

However, regardless of what the costume is, she cannot be reduced to something as simple as her boobs, their size, and how they look without the costume on. If we use the logic in your argument, the costume enhanced her entire body, yet the source of their focus was her boobs, not her entire physical appearance. The idea that women who dress up in a sexual way should not be viewed sexually is not valid in my estimation, however I don't believe they should be viewed as only sexual. … | /r/MensRights | 19/10/12 09:01 PM |

Essentially, based on the preponderance of evidence being presented to them their whole lives, they correctly make the emotional conclusion that what they are doing is right and just.

| 5 | What feminism is to youTo me, the official feminism is a movement whose sole purpose is promoting the rights and privileges of women wherein remedies to social stigmatization and legal oppression of men are mere means to a feminine end. As long as the activism that is promoted towards men (often a down-played afterthought) serves to benefit women, it's okay. If anything could possibly inconvenience or harm women, tough luck men.

| – | Feminists and recognition of rapeThe joking around about it is really a coping mechanism to hide the internal trauma, not only to the rest of the world, but also to themselves. To wake up to some woman riding your dick is supposed to be the fantasy of every man, and they feel intense shame by the fact that they didn't necessarily enjoy it. It would make them feel like less of a man to admit that they didn't enjoy it.
