3	if you are a disabled male that can't work, society thinks you are better off dead or homeless. That's where a lot of my worries come from. The idea of many people gaming the system has little to no real evidence. The fraud rates for disability benefits have consistently been the lowest of all benefits. The main UK disability benefit is PIP which has a fraud rate of 0.4%. That is much lower than fraud rates for housing benefit (4.1%), pension credit (4.5%) or universal credit (8%). Much of the idea of people gaming the system seems to come from either a very narrow view of disability ("if …	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	09/12/25 01:25 PM
8	if you are a disabled male that can't work, society thinks you are better off dead or homeless. I always worry when people talk about legitimate disabilities/conditions as it nearly always turns out to be able-ism in a slightly different hat :/	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	08/12/25 07:33 PM
1	Male representation in Media: A list of animated TV shows by gender of lead character I would say that Gravity Falls is more male centred and with a mix of positive and negative male and female characters. I think that just looking at male vs female centric is too blunt a tool. Some of the best on screen male representation has been in animated shows (Samurai Jack, Uncle Iroh) and some has been quite nuanced (Homer is an idiot man child but also devoted to his family). Some female centric shows also have very good male characters (Bow in She-Ra and the Princesses of Power) and so…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	27/06/25 08:36 AM
7	Rapists of men and boys given tougher prison sentences than those who target female victims (UK) I would guess that some of it is down to disparity in numbers and averaging over those numbers. If you take a couple of fairly recent examples - Reynhard Sinaga attacked multiple men and received a life sentence and the Oxford abuse ring where multiple men attacked girls and received sentences ranging from life to one and a half years. In the first case you have one life sentence and that's the average length in the second case the average length of sentence is much lower although there were fiv…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	13/05/25 01:22 PM
7	Do you think society has adapted itself to suit women more and has therefore left men out in the cold? I wouldn't say so. Society has changed so that the traditional roles demanded of men are less useful but those traditional roles are still demanded. Work has has largely moved on from being strength based to being much more brain based so men don't have quite such a monopoly on useful traits now.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	30/04/25 09:21 PM
39	Question for my fellow LWMA's, how do we respond to statements such as this one? Having been the only man in the room on a number of occasions ecstatic has never been remotely close to my emotional response!	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	25/09/24 09:33 AM
7	Whose unemployment hurts more? Joblessness and subjective well-being in U.S. married couples Men are socially valued for what they do, women are socially valued for what they are. OK, a bit of a sweeping statement but certainly (in western society at least) men have much less intrinsic value than women or children so if you take away their extrinsic value it leaves them with much less personal value and so likely much lower self esteem than women in the same siuation.	/r/Male_Studies	12/03/23 05:15 PM
1	Gender Differences Are Encoded Differently in the Structure and Function of the Human Brain Revealed by Multimodal MRI Is this cause or effect though? Are the changes due to differences in socialisation and interactions or a cause of them? It would be interesting (but probably unethical!) to see how gender differentiated neonates brains are vs. adult brains.	/r/Male_Studies	15/02/23 09:39 AM
