2	Americans calling themselves "feminist" has dropped from 28% to 18% in the last two years While I agree, at least for here and now, I also think that criticism of early feminism can have some benefits for us by de-legitimizing the whole movement. I often hear feminists, especially the casual kind that lives in lunch rooms rather than in lecture halls, defend their position with "female vote, women in workforce, all about equality, hurr durr". If the perception of the early feminists can be shifted from that of saints fighting for a 100% rightful cause, to that of political activists …	/r/MensRights	30/05/15 11:51 AM
3	Equal pay? In Australia, there is pressure to allow companies to pay women MORE than men (in the exact same job) without facing discrimination lawsuits. The only grounds for getting paid more will be having a vagina! I don't want to sound harsh, but that's the examples I expected and they're all wrong. I actually live in Sweden and study economics here and none of the Scandinavian countries are anywhere near being socialist. I am confident that the same can be said about Germany, and probably Iceland too. For example, Sweden's public expenditure as a percentage of GDP is ~45% depending on the source. This is slightly higher but comparable to Japan, USA, UK, and lower than France for example. Being highly int…	/r/MensRights	24/05/15 07:43 PM
2	Equal pay? In Australia, there is pressure to allow companies to pay women MORE than men (in the exact same job) without facing discrimination lawsuits. The only grounds for getting paid more will be having a vagina! Could you give an example?	/r/MensRights	24/05/15 07:08 PM
2	A young man asks (Finnish only) Eva Biaudet, running for presidency, if she, as an activist, thinks it's right that the compulsory military service applies only to men. She thinks it's OK because women can do military service if they want to and only a few hundred per year does. Insane? Yes. In Sweden, and I guess Finland is similar, "army" is often used somewhat interchangeably with "military". We do have an airforce, a navy and a small marine corps but I think they're considered part of the same "package", and not nearly as independent and autonomous from each other as those of the US. But to tl;dr it all: Yes, you can go to the airforce or navy instead, but "army" might as well mean any of them.	/r/MensRights	25/07/14 11:09 PM
2	Teen charged with sexting girlfriend will be forced to get an erection via an injection and be photographed by police for evidence I know u/515yphus already said so, but this is one thing this community should act on rather than just sit around and outrage about. I'm in Europe and have no familiarity with the U.S. justice system (luckily, it seems), but if anyone could post the email address(es), url, or other contact info about the prosecutor at least it's possible for me and others in the same geographical situation to reach them and express our resentment in a constructive way. Also, is there anything like FIRE but for i…	/r/MensRights	09/07/14 09:46 PM
4	TIL A Swedish Transsexual man joined the Feminist Movement, was kicked out for being a man and then cyberbullied until committing suicide.(translated swedish source) Wrong. I study in Sweden and keep myself informed on these things, this is not true at all.	/r/MensRights	02/07/14 07:28 PM
1	"During prom season at my school, we're actually required to go to a mandatory anti-rape course, girls have to go to a self defense course." Yeah, we have to take an honest look at the evidence that exists. We also have deal with an opposition that works against us, presenting other evidence that sometimes is credible, sometimes appear credible, and sometimes is open to interpretation. We do not exist in a political vacuum, and neither do the decision makers.	/r/MensRights	30/06/14 11:51 AM
1	"During prom season at my school, we're actually required to go to a mandatory anti-rape course, girls have to go to a self defense course." Are you unable to read? I haven't brought up any statistics, no studies, and no laws. I'm a mostly a supporter of the MRM and certainly don't hate men. How blinded by emotion are you to make that many unfounded assumptions about someone you know nothing about? Rape is a problem regardless who's right about its prevalence, and even if it's not the general public overwhelmingly thinks it is. If the MRM can have some say in how to prevent rape the situation will be improved compared to now. Swingin…	/r/MensRights	30/06/14 11:08 AM
1	"During prom season at my school, we're actually required to go to a mandatory anti-rape course, girls have to go to a self defense course." I absolutely agree. Rape is unique in that the perpetrator can actually believe that the victim wants to have sex. That's the whole basis of the huge issue of false accusations that we deal with frequently on this sub. This is never a problem with other crimes - you always know a victim of robbery didn't want it. A neutral and factual education in the legal boundaries of consent and why they're placed where they are could certainly make a difference in some gray area cases where the rapist is no…	/r/MensRights	30/06/14 09:15 AM
-2	"During prom season at my school, we're actually required to go to a mandatory anti-rape course, girls have to go to a self defense course." I don't know why this is being downvoted. Even if you disagree that forcing everyone to take a "don't rape class" is helpful, isn't this person's approach pretty reasonable?	/r/MensRights	30/06/14 08:50 AM
1	Front page of /r/Feminism: Feminist attacked by Red Piller, blames MRAs, provides photographic evidence that she's lying, my comment is deleted. This should be the top comment of the entire discussion.	/r/MensRights	28/06/14 02:52 PM
2	Front page of /r/Feminism: Feminist attacked by Red Piller, blames MRAs, provides photographic evidence that she's lying, my comment is deleted. Yes, this is what we must do in cases like this. Always being better than the opposition and leading by example are the best ways to increase our legitimacy in the eyes of the general public.	/r/MensRights	28/06/14 02:50 PM
1	Front page of /r/Feminism: Feminist attacked by Red Piller, blames MRAs, provides photographic evidence that she's lying, my comment is deleted. Yes, this is the correct response if the MRM wants to be seen as a legitimate political movement and not a bunch of rape apologists. False accusations is one of the biggest issues we deal with here and the general sentiment is always "let the court do the judging and stay away from harmful speculation". Please, ladies and gentlemen, let's not fall into this behavior ourselves!	/r/MensRights	28/06/14 02:45 PM

9	Look at all that wonderful male privilege This is very true and the analogy with the wage gap is extremely relevant in this case!	/r/MensRights	21/06/14 12:04 AM
2	Look at all that wonderful male privilege That's interesting, haven't heard about the female warden cases before. Could you provide link(s)?	/r/MensRights	21/06/14 12:01 AM
3	1 in 10 men are unknowingly raising a child that isn't theirs. The women who do this to men are committing a crime. No, it's entirely dependent on the context. Nobody would travel with an airline where 1% of the flights crash, and everyone would want to go to a school where 1% of the students end up president of the United States. You could also say that 1% of all high school students failing math would still be pretty good, while 1% of all high school students being killed in school shootings would be a huge problem. The point is, 1 being a small number compared to 100 carries no real weight. Of course you c…	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/06/14 09:41 AM
2	1 in 10 men are unknowingly raising a child that isn't theirs. The women who do this to men are committing a crime. It is actually a matter of opinion what you consider widespread, as there is no generally used way to determine when something is a problem or not. Anyway, since you "don't think" 1.5 million is correct (something which I haven't said anything about), we finally have valid evidence in the question.	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/06/14 07:36 PM
4	1 in 10 men are unknowingly raising a child that isn't theirs. The women who do this to men are committing a crime. I wasn't actually the one giving the number, I only pointed out that 1.5 million gives ~1% of U.S. men and several percentage points more if calculated on fathers only as they make out a fraction of the men. I have no idea whether 1.5 million is the correct number or not, and I don't know what percentage of U.S. males that are fathers. Still, 1.5 million is at the very least 1% of U.S. fathers (assuming 100% of the males are fathers, which they aren't). To me this is a small but significant shar…	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/06/14 06:37 PM
6	1 in 10 men are unknowingly raising a child that isn't theirs. The women who do this to men are committing a crime. The U.S. does not have a male population of 313 million, take half that and it's (allegedly) 1.5 million men from a total of 156.5 million which is one in a hundred. And that's from the total male population, the percentage of fathers unknowingly raising a child other than their own would of course be higher. It's still no majority, but easily a couple of guys on your facebook friend list of you're in the right age bracket.	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/06/14 04:21 PM
1	Congratulations to GirlWritesWhat on reaching 1 million views on her "disposable male" video. Alright, considering it is from Uppsala that's no surprise. It's good that you are aware of the paper, then it won't be a surprise if it's brought up. And to clarify - Uppsala is a great university but its gender department is heavily biased.	/r/MensRights	20/05/14 12:49 PM
1	Congratulations to GirlWritesWhat on reaching 1 million views on her "disposable male" video. There is a study from Uppsala University that, IIRC, shows that the women and children first thing hasn't really been the norm for most of history. Might be worth checking out if you want your back clear, and I suppose they also use references that might be of interest. Unfortunately I don't remember the name of the authors but have a look around and you'll probably find it.	/r/MensRights	18/05/14 10:34 PM
28	'Society could do with several centuries of male tokenism' says Guardian journalist after paper's project to give young people a voice hires 9 women and 1 man. I think the reason this sub exists is because we don't agree at all with what you claim is the definition of feminism.	/r/MensRights	21/03/14 03:44 PM
3	The documentary that made Scandinavians cut all funds to its gender studies institute No, and most things said about Scandinavia in this thread is extreme hyperbole. I mean, there are men importing Thai women but it's rare enough to be "my uncle's weird childhood friend". I've lived in Sweden for some years and sure, sometimes feminism here is just too much but once you put that newspaper editorial away most people are busy living their lives. There's a big difference between feminist bias in society, politics and media, and having female overlords whipping our men all the way to…	/r/TheRedPill	23/01/14 08:09 AM
