–	Looks like American Men are Wising Up. Or they can do something easier and more dastardly: change the requirements for common-law marriage. Imagine reducing the requirements so much that spending any significant amount of time with a woman, even in a casual relationship, could be construed as intent to wed. She gets pregnant? Bam, auto-marriage. Think of the children. I can see this becoming a thing if enough men go their own way.	/r/MensRights	11/03/15 01:59 AM
9	Fun ways to use a man? Using a man as a wallet is the primary function and therefore is taken seriously. These are the funny hacks you can do with your wallet to add more utility.	/r/MensRights	12/10/14 05:12 PM
9	White House: The '77 cents' wage gap figure isn't accurate, but they'll use it anyway In the same line of thinking, only women would be paid minimum wage. The fact that minimum wage jobs level the wage gap playing field for everyone demonstrates that there cannot be a patriarchal conspiracy to pay women less. I don't ever recall getting a patriarchy stipend in my old burger flipping paychecks for being born XY.	/r/MensRights	09/04/14 04:41 AM
18	An absurd feminist comment on an absurd feminist article that gets a great response from one of us. Unfortunately, he is dismissed quickly and without logical justification. (link to article in comments). When you reverse the genders on this one, it actually describes radical feminism quite well.	/r/MensRights	17/12/13 12:42 PM
1	Why are men expected to always change for a woman? I disagree with your take on this. You seem to be perpetuating the misconception that only a female's aesthetic is acceptable in a shared living space. Why would these items be acceptable in a "man" space but not acceptable when a woman is in the shared space? Is it equally unacceptable if the woman has giant stuffed animals or doll collections all over the house? It is almost as if you are saying that we must all conform to some societal notion of what makes for a proper relationship living env…	/r/MensRights	16/11/13 10:16 PM
4	Clothing sizes are sexist. Feminists want to have their cake and eat it too, which is why some of them can't fit into Lululemons. TW: body shaming Nomex/Kevlar fire retardant suits worn by many industrial/chemical workers. Flight suits used by military pilots. Race car driver suits. Dive/wet/dry suits. Hazmat suits. Clean room suits. These are all one piece suits that go from head to toe in most cases. Where I live we have many military pilots and industrial workers who wear these all the time. It's obvious that this issue has been solved as men come in many shapes and sizes too and wear these things all the time.	/r/MensRights	08/11/13 08:19 PM
1	MRA's, please don't do this! What other groups within MRA do you think give us a bad name? I'm glad you see the utility and importance both sexes contribute to the world and everyone in it. This is what the MRA and Feminism movements should really be striving to attain. While both sexes can do many things that overlap into the others realm, there will always be significant areas where only one sex can truly achieve. Instead of focusing on those areas as a bad thing, we should celebrate them because these are the things that give both men and women true purpose in our shared existence.…	/r/MensRights	04/11/13 03:48 AM
–	MRA's, please don't do this! What other groups within MRA do you think give us a bad name? How about we put together a different version of this where we celebrate the contributions of both women and men? Yes, men may have a great ability to build and create the physical part of civilization. We know that because it is all around us and we see daily who is doing that part. Women built the human race because they have the sole ability to create in that manner. Everyday they show us how they keep us growing and expanding in number. Men would have no need to build civilization without th…	/r/MensRights	03/11/13 06:21 PM
1	MRA's, please don't do this! What other groups within MRA do you think give us a bad name? You have not cited any times or places to back this up. Without proper citation, your statement is without basis. It comes off as the parroting that happens with feminist statements of the same nature. Yes there have been places and times where women were denied such things, but the men had it no better. The social contracts of gender roles have always been both a burden and a blessing for both sides. Women may not have had the "privileges", but they also lacked the responsibilities/duties. It's…	/r/MensRights	03/11/13 06:11 PM
2	Feminist Jaclyn Friedman slams MRM "And make no mistake: anti-woman hate is the defining feature of the MRAs..." First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. I fear the fight you phase will be an extended time period. Still worth standing up for ourselves because eventually egalitarianism can prevail.	/r/MensRights	25/10/13 04:48 AM
12	Women claims man raped her. Family demands blackmail payment from him, then burns him to death with kerosene. When a man is incarcerated for not paying child support, no one considers that he will not be able to pay because he is locked up. Your well reasoned logic falls on their deaf and dumb minds.	/r/MensRights	07/09/13 05:33 AM
1	I've heard about it, but it finally happened to me. I know how to construct sub links, but I chose not to do it because of the "-worthy" attached to WTF. It seemed odd like that.	/r/MensRights	23/08/13 06:55 AM
0	I've heard about it, but it finally happened to me. How dare OP smoke his carcinogens in public! He should be doing something totally not harmful to anyone like driving a gasoline burning car or having a BBQ with charcoal. Your ruined our pristine air OP. /s	/r/MensRights	23/08/13 06:49 AM
1	I've heard about it, but it finally happened to me. It's possible they are made of glass. From all the pictures I've seen over my years on Reddit of people getting infections, devastating open sores and putrefying flesh from simple accidents, I really think some people are not suited to live outside sterile and padded environments. I get injured, cut, burned and bitten a lot, but I have never even come close to the the level of r/WTF-worthy medical disasters I see on Reddit daily. So maybe they do have glass bones and paper skin.	/r/MensRights	23/08/13 06:42 AM
3	I've heard about it, but it finally happened to me. But to ignore it creates a double standard. Is that not what many of our fights in the MRM are based on? Limiting one class' freedom while permitting another to enjoy the same freedom is not a solution. Vilifying smokers is one of Reddit's favorite past times, but let's not forget OP was harassed because he was a male in a public park around women and children. We fight for gender equality here. Leave the smoking argument to the rest of Reddit.	/r/MensRights	23/08/13 06:30 AM
–	I've heard about it, but it finally happened to me. A cop suggesting you keep a copy of your son's birth certificate with you is a first step to an eventual "papers, please" world single fathers will be forced to live in. The day this comes to be the norm, we will truly have regressed society to a privileged class and an outcast class. Guess which side is which. I'm sorry you no longer feel safe taking your son to a public park. Society has failed you.	/r/MensRights	23/08/13 06:24 AM
2	"War on Men? Yeah, Not So Much." Arguably one of the worst articles I've read in my life. Their voting percentage would go up after you subtract all the males ineligible to vote due to incarceration and prison time served. With the incarceration rate for males being 15 times higher than females, their eligible voting population would be closer to 55%. Seems to me they should be able to sway any election they wish to.	/r/MensRights	27/07/13 05:49 AM
45	10,060 men die annually of painkiller overdose vs. 6,631 women. Guess where the concern lies? “I felt like I sold my soul somewhere along the way,” said Ms. Steele, whose father was an alcoholic and abusive. Wow, they never miss an opportunity to blame a man do they? No mention anywhere else in the article of her father, but somehow this statement is relevant without any context. “Poverty is depression, it’s failure, it’s sadness, it’s low self-esteem,” said Ms. Collins. Maybe her father was an alcoholic because poverty was weighing on him just as much and turned to booze instead of pill…	/r/MensRights	04/07/13 09:36 AM
3	"Men Only ≠ Women Only. It is a red herring and a disgraceful suggestion to make." (said by a man) Can someone please just start a women only war and draft, for you know, equality?	/r/MensRights	19/11/12 09:37 AM
2	My marriage counselor When you fire this counselor, be sure to ask her for three recommended alternative counselors. This will give you a list of three names you can avoid should you continue to go through counseling. You can be relatively sure that the names she gives will be colleagues/friends who are just like her. It will also be likely that these names would be even more on the hardcore side of male bashing since it would be her last chance to crush you into submission. Above all, fire this counselor.	/r/MensRights	09/11/12 12:09 AM
