-4	Who made the app tho It might have something to do with the fact that punching up is much funnier than punching down and that humour is often drawn from subverting social power structures	/r/PussyPassDenied	07/08/17 09:02 AM
3	"Step In Inequality" xpost /r/mensrights I think you're overlooking the fact that a diverse cabinet (for government) or employee base (for businesses) provides a number of benefits that aren't immediately obvious. One of the flow on effects from a non-diverse governing body is that the perspectives of minorities are not considered. This leads to things like access to women's health being restricted, or the rights of gay people to marry being ignored. By enforcing diversity, governments can more effectively provide for their entire cons…	/r/PussyPassDenied	05/07/17 03:54 AM
1	Manspreading: Part II Are you illiterate? The rules aren't discriminatory and they don't even mention gender. Gothamist points out that it’s against the MTA code of conduct to “occupy more than one seat when to do so would interfere or tend to interfere with the comfort of other passengers,” but it’s highly doubtful the train was actually crowded after midnight. No details were provided in the police report. It’s possible that two unnamed men were arrested in New York City for manspreading, but no details about the c…	/r/MensRights	20/06/17 07:19 AM
1	Manspreading: Part II Did you not read the Snopes article? There is no evidence that actually happened. Excuse me if I don't take the Telegraph's words for it. There is no legislation against manspreading.	/r/MensRights	19/06/17 10:39 PM
0	Manspreading: Part II Source? I don't believe you, and this Snopes article attests to that. http://www.snopes.com/2015/06/02/manspreading-arrest/ Made it into legislation? Try "made it into a public transit authority courtesy sign". In both NY and Madrid. The STICK FIGURE in both cases is a man, because hey, a lot of the time when someone is taking up extra space with their body, it turns out to be a man. This is historically evident: http://hyperallergic.com/319245/vintage-subway-etiquette-posters-reveal-manspreadin…	/r/MensRights	19/06/17 02:06 PM
-1	Manspreading: Part II The photo you linked even says it's a space issue, you fucking idiot. If you had gone to the feminism subreddit to see what the most upvoted manspreading post there was, you would have seen this link explaining that no, this is not a recent thing. It was not invented by feminists. There is no conspiracy. http://hyperallergic.com/319245/vintage-subway-etiquette-posters-reveal-manspreading-has-always-been-annoying/	/r/MensRights	19/06/17 01:29 PM
2	Manspreading: Part II Holy shit dude. This is going in circles. This sub spends too much time circle jerking, and being upset by, the whole concept of manspreading, and it's gotten to the point where the only reason so many people even know about it is because of /r/menrights. I'm over it and I'm over talking about it. You're hyper focused to the point where everything else is blown out of proportion with reality. I'm so glad I don't live in the same mind space as you. Feminists at large are not rallying against it. …	/r/MensRights	19/06/17 01:03 PM
2	Manspreading: Part II That's what I'm arguing? That this sub chooses to focus on really unimportant non-issues instead of bringing attention to much more important subjects. The posts from this sub that show up on /r/all portray a really immature picture that distracts from some genuine points.	/r/MensRights	19/06/17 12:00 PM
0	Manspreading: Part II Well from my experience, feminists want to dismantle the patriarchal systems that negatively affect both men and women. I've found great success as a man being able to shine light on issues that specifically affect men and gain support from the female feminists in my life. I can only speak to my experience, but in saying that I do acknowledge that there are loud "feminists" that argue their cause poorly and in a way that is framed much more as anti-men rather than pro-women. I tend not to pay to…	/r/MensRights	19/06/17 09:46 AM
4	Manspreading: Part II Ugh, I don't have any problem with it. You're railing against someone that both doesn't think manspreading is a problem doesn't think it achieves anything to focus on such a small part of feminist rhetoric to criticise when there are valid men's rights issues to be addressing	/r/MensRights	19/06/17 09:41 AM
-2	Manspreading: Part II To be honest, from my experience with "the other side" - which is actually probably my side - if the men's rights movement focused on being constructive then they'd find many allies ready to work with them to achieve equality. Too much of the conflict comes from the origins of the men's rights movement as an anti-feminist movement.	/r/MensRights	19/06/17 07:34 AM
1	Manspreading: Part II Not sure if this sub has any self awareness at all, but "womanspreading" posts are frequently at the top of /r/menrights - I feel like you guys need to take your own advice.	/r/MensRights	19/06/17 03:51 AM
1	Manspreading Yeah, but the mocking is making a caricature of yourselves. Done with this conversation.	/r/MensRights	19/06/17 12:20 AM
0	Manspreading Yeah, so just ignore it in your mind as a case of attempting to improve public transit etiquette. No big deal. Using it as a perceived trump card to modern feminism just lowers the overall standard of discourse. If I were as concerned about men's "rights" as much as the people in this sub seems to be, I'd focus less on being anti-feminism and more on addressing specific, impactful miscarriages of justice like unfounded loss of custody or false rape accusations. I'd also acknowledge that it's pos…	/r/MensRights	18/06/17 10:51 PM
14	Manspreading You know what might make the men's rights movement look like less of a joke? Dismissing "manspreading" as the silly non-issue it is rather than making a huge deal of anecdotal "girls do it too!!!!" hysteria	/r/MensRights	18/06/17 03:36 AM
