1	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted Well first of all, yeah, fuck the police, I don't think that's a good use of resources either. That said, I looked up what you're referring to, and it's a little oblique to refer to police officers fining men for catcalling women jogging past them as targeting "any man they see romantically approaching women." But okay, sure. So is that the only context in which you disapprove of sexual harassment laws? Do you think otherwise it's good to have them and hold men accountable for sexual harassment?	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 11:53 PM
1	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted It's evidence that that believe is prevalent enough for an anti-circumcision group to take note and dedicate a page to refuting it. Here's an article that quotes real people who held this belief. I'm not sure why you're so insistent that because YOU'VE never heard something, it can't possibly be real.	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 11:49 PM
0	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted Right. Because you consider men getting in trouble for sexually harassing women at work to be "women being advantaged over their peers due to nothing but their gender." Because you see women's equality as men's discrimination. Good talk.	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 11:41 PM

0	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted I DO know that minor removals of parts of the clit negate sexual pleasure because that's what FGM type II is. It's illegal in the US, but it happens in other parts of the world, and we know the outcomes, dumbass. Let me say this one more time so you can try to get it through your skull: people around the world have experimented with what you can do surgically to a girl's vulva. We have tried it all. We know the outcomes. And we know, for a FACT, that all of these procedures lead to more severe n…	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 11:26 PM
0	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted As I've already said, there's no point in us arguing because our viewpoints come from such radically different readings of reality. You insist you're right, I'll insist I'm right. I think my stance makes a bit more sense, since I think the oppression of women is a natural result of the fact that we were considered an inferior species and not allowed to be full members of society until maybe three decades ago, but I don't expect someone who thinks "men have more bodily autonomy than women" to be …	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 11:16 PM
-2	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted It's so funny how we're like a funhouse mirror version of each other. You know that's exactly what feminists say about you guys, right? Men react so badly to feminism because they interpret women being equal to them as men being discriminated against. Now which of us is right? Well, who's to say. We'll never agree because our perspectives come from from fundamentally different readings of the reality.	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 05:35 AM
0	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted Right... I'm going to guess that what your sex ed teacher meant was that the labia doesn't necessarily play a huge role in sexual pleasure. But the vulva has a very, uh, "biome" quality to it, and as I mentioned can be fairly prone to infection, so the labia do play a key role in distributing moisture and protecting the vagina from bacteria. Like, imagining a vulva with no labia is, to me, kind of like imagining if your mouth was on the outside of your body. The point is that the area that matte…	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 05:24 AM
-1	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted I didn't say there was a problem with it. I was responding to your comment where you said that women should be spending their time arguing against the edgy misandrists of TikTok as opposed to with misogynists on reddit. My point was, I'm not scolding those men for being there and not here, so don't scold me for being here and not there. People generally prefer to argue against people they perceive to be in their out-group as opposed to policing their in-group. It's fine. As for crazy misogyny in…	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 05:10 AM
0	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted I kind of still don't get what you mean. The skin? Do you mean the outer labia? I think that is a procedure that happens in some FGM types 2 and 3, although typically not alone. But it would definitely have major, crazy complications. I don't see why you would think the father being circumcised is more likely an aesthetic preference on the part of the mother than the father. Haven't you heard the thing where fathers say they want their sons to look like them? Again, you can doubt me that hygiene…	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 04:57 AM
1	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted No, I'm mostly familiar with Richard Reeves, although I can kind of imagine you don't think much of his work. But he certainly attributes the issue to more varied causes. IIRC he promotes the (in my opinion whacky) idea of universal redshirting for boys, to make up for the facts that girls develop more quickly in early childhood, which he suspects might set boys up at a disadvantage. I'm a little confused by what you're suggesting. What do you consider to be the tip of the vulva? In my opinion, …	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 04:40 AM

Find me a researcher who studies this subject who claims what you claim, that the entire difference in educational outcomes between boys and girls is caused by teacher bias. I'm familiar with researchers on this topic, I'm pretty sure they attribute it to a variety of factors. I already told you. I saw the study you linked directly. The other link you gave was to an article. I clicked the link to the highlighted text, but it didn't take me to an academic study, it took me to another summar…	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 04:18 AM
-1	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted Well, again, I think it's a subtextual claim of the argument. I think that people who say "women should have to be drafted to have the vote" say it, on some level, because they know that the idea of the vote being taken away from women is a very common sexist talking point. Otherwise, there's really very little connection between the right to vote and the draft. Like, I'm not sure why you say that's the position of the US government when, in the US, men's registering for the Selective Service is…	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 04:09 AM
0	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted Dude, I would rather you DM me to call me a cunt than call me a poor critter. There has to be a way around this. Look, I'm not going to get into this again. You can poke around this thread for my thoughts on abortion. At base, I think dismissing it as something that doesn't really matter, or isn't that common, or that we can ignore cause it only really happens to sluts (the subtext of what you're saying) is just, like, unmoored from reality. These are completely central, life-defining issues for…	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 03:57 AM
-1	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted I am well aware of the statistic that it's just as strong as in the 70s, but flipped. But that's the thing. In the 70s, we understood exactly where the gap came from because it was following decades of active exclusion. That's not the case now, so the problem is harder to understand. I looked at one of your studies. You were right, you had linked them. Like you, I couldn't find the study linked in the article; it seemed to link another article, and I couldn't find the right link there. I looked …	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 03:50 AM
-1	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted Sure. And I personally would like it if the men that I see making those same "not all men" arguments in the comments of every edgy woman's annoying TikToks would come, instead, argue on this subreddit against the crazy misogyny you guys post on here every single day. But they don't, because we all have our own interests. It's fine. I feel like you really ignored the meat of my comment to be like, "well... it's your own fault I do that."	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 03:38 AM

To address the point more directly. I just think "women should be conscripted" and especially "women should be conscripted to have the vote" is a stupid policy position. And if you want me to not treat this suggestion as a round-about way of saying "repeal the 19th," t…	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 03:32 AM
0	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted Yeah. They're both extreme ways that the government imposes control over the body of its subjects. They're both potentially violating, both potentially life threatening. I don't think they have to be 1:1, or 1:1 with slavery, to be compared.	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 03:20 AM

Are you talking about the gender education gap that emerged from decades of women being systematically excluded from higher education and the workforce? Yeah, actually, we found that a bit easier to understand and address. And no lol, I know enough about this issue to know it's not just "female teacher's misandry."

0	The idea that men are the ones who have power over women is so stupid when you consider that usually women are allowed to vote for pro-war policies and men are the ones who get drafted The draft isn't fun, but come on, we're arguing ten comments deep in a reddit thread. This is not the battle field. We can be a little loose with it. Anyway, I don't agree that that is, as you say, the point. You're making a huge, broad, cross-societal generalization. One of the reason I find arguments like this annoying is that I think there's often some lowkey stolen valor of people like American men, who, whatever people want to say, are genuinely not at risk of being drafted, from people lik…	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 03:08 AM

What is it with you guys being incapable of interpreting any argument that is not presented in the most direct way possible? My point is obviously that it's dumb to act like women are automatically at fault for the draft in Ukraine because they're the majority of voters when the draft was not established by a direct vote from the population.	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 02:53 AM

I think it's annoying when men in the US act like they're at risk of being drafted when our geography and the state of modern warfare make that, like, exceptionally unlikely. I wouldn't react the same way if I was talking to someone from Ukraine.	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 02:44 AM

I was curious about the location because it seems to me that the draft is often overblown as an issue in the US from a men's rights perspective when no man has been drafted here in over 50 years, and given the general position of our geography and the state of our military, it seems really unlikely to make a comeback.	/r/MensRights	23/06/26 02:14 AM

That is an understatement so absurd I could apply it to anything, including the draft. And I am articulating the conversation correctly. That's what this whole conversation is about.

Real comment: Okay, I'm gonna try and keep this short because I do actually have things to do. Most of the things that you listed are not government policy, which is the subject of the discussion.

"Men getting the vote and deciding that women should be enslaved for reproductive purposes is a bit different than what you describe, and certainly an argument for men's legal and social advantages/privileges over women."

I'll stop making assumptions about you. You support abortion and think all women should wait until marriage.

But sure, let me expand on my point. First of all, women are forced to get pregnant, it's called rape, and it's THE inconvenient truth when it comes to discussing abortion law. But beyond that, it's just unserious to act like women have total responsibility for getting pregnant. Birth control fails. People can be totally responsible and still get pregnant.

I would reject such a deal, because I don't care about men voting on abortion or the ERA. And I agree with you it's never going to happen. I actually living in a democracy where everyone can vote. This is exactly why I'm saying that this post is stupid.

I live in the US, where men haven't been drafted in over 50 years, but I think we should abolish the contingency registration system. There.

From the Wendy’s website itself: “After trying all five of his children's names for the restaurant, Dave decided on his daughter Melinda's nickname - Wendy. … He felt that the logo of a smiling, whole-some little girl with the name “Wendy’s Old-Fashioned Hamburgers” would be the place where you went for a hamburger the way you used to get them, with fresh beef.” Did the f…	/r/MensRights	14/06/26 10:32 PM
4	Companies Named After Daughters vs Companies Named After Sons Naming a company after your child is not “to make that person feel loved and special” lmfao. I’m sure for people who name their companies after their children, that plays a role. But the first and main reason is to have a company name that you think will succeed in the market. The point, once again, is that you are looking at one highly specific action and seeing it as the only possible indication of value. Who does a father value more? The daughter he names the company after? Or the son he want…	/r/MensRights	14/06/26 09:31 PM
3	Companies Named After Daughters vs Companies Named After Sons Well, first of all, it is literally putting your son in the company name. Your son could work for you without naming your company “& son”; doing so indicates a level of pride or a desire to pass the business onto your son. The point is that this is also a way of communicating value. “Naming your company after them” is one very narrow way of showing you value your daughter. Training your son in your business and expecting him to take over your legacy is certainly another way of showing you value …	/r/MensRights	14/06/26 09:15 PM

It makes sense these dates are not that long ago because democracy is not that old. In most of the countries you've listed, women still got the right to vote later than men, so I'm not sure what point this post is proving.	/r/MensRights	08/03/26 11:09 PM

Yes, disabled guys can sexually harass people, just like they can potentially do any other human activity. And it's a bit disingenuous to say that all of these women are saying that "disabled men are treated better than non-disabled women." They're just saying that disabled men can be sexist; that has nothing to do with how they, themselves, are treated by society.

That's why you all seem to think that feminism can be debunked by posts like this that try to find isolated incidents of men being treated badly. My point is that patriarchy (which is the concept at the heart of feminism) is a view on the structure of society that is robust enough to be applied to many different phenomena, including something like homophobia against gay men and …	/r/MensRights	12/01/26 07:47 AM
-14	Nazis Persecuted Gays Yet Tolerated Lesbians Kind of a shallow take on this topic. No one believes that gay men and lesbians were treated exactly the same through history; the feminist view on this would be that homophobia manifests differently toward gay men and lesbians in ways that are motivated by other gender dynamics. Actually, feminists would probably argue that misogyny is the reason homophobia is so extreme toward gay men.	/r/MensRights	12/01/26 06:53 AM
5	the amazing incoherence at the heart of feminist ideology I actually agree with the other commenter who replied to this, I think my original comment was probably overly dismissive of the idea that men could feel violated by this type of imagery (without, like, making it a gay thing). Both men and women are hurt by sexual exploitation, and I don't really see why your argument doesn't apply to other forms of abuse. By your logic, as long as someone isn't offended by something, then no one can be. For example, you might ask someone, why does it hurt you w…	/r/MensRights	02/01/26 11:42 AM
5	the amazing incoherence at the heart of feminist ideology Let me try to explain this one. The first time I remember really feeling the emotion of violation was after I had a car broken into and several items stolen. Before that, I wouldn't have imagined that I would feel that way; after all, the theft was only the loss of some items. But violation is the feeling that occurs when something that should belong to you is taken by another person, who in doing so shows you that they do not care about you or your rights to it. It is the knowledge that other p…	/r/MensRights	02/01/26 11:11 AM

Here's the gist, although probably put less carefully than I would like: Don't disagree about the banning, but I actually consider myself a more earnest member of this subreddit than you would imagine. I partially commented because I think it's overall bad for the men's rights movement to become a space in which sexual harassment is encouraged or delegitimized as a concept.

For one thing, once those images are out there, they're out there forever. You even acknowledge in your post that those images could have serious consequences for a woman's professional or personal relationships; that's still true once the image is out there, even if wasn't generated for that specific purpose.

"Women have a natural propensity to prefer other women, which we should assume means they will always discriminate against men when in positions of power, and therefore we should organize to create a system in which only men are elected to government positions"?

But I assume that this finding mostly pertains to interpersonal relationships, which I'm not sure can be applied directly to the idea of governance.

1	It's getting old at this point. Yes, a woman's body releases endorphins when having a baby. But, extremely obviously, positive hormones do not provide enough of a pain relieving effect to negate the presence of pain when your vagina is being torn open, the same way taking a Tylenol beforehand isn't going to stop you from feeling pain when you hit your thumb with a hammer. Also, it's not good practice to make an absolutely wild claim and when asked for a source say "there are hundreds of sources" without providing one.	/r/MensRights	31/12/25 09:17 AM

There are no female characters portrayed that way either. It is a dark comedy horror movie in which every character is overtly flawed.
