The 2016 election will be all about gender, again.I'll probably get downvoted more, and I do respect everyone's opinions here -- I just want to provide a bit more of my perspective. Clinton definitely misspoke there, and that statement was also criticized by several feminist groups for a range of reasons (victimization of women, giving the impression that only men fight in battle, etc.). That statement was definitely incorrect, but that was a statement made 16 years ago and in reference to a conflict in another country. A mistake, but a stateme… | /r/MensRights | 13/01/14 09:40 PM |
| -14 | Make no mistake about it. The 2016 election will be all about gender, again.I think this shouldn't take away at all from Hilary Clinton. She would be a great candidate. She was called upon by Arnold Schwarzenegger's wife to publish a report, and I think this article is attempting to sensationalize her viewpoint based on this minor contribution. In the debates and interviews I've seen with Hilary Clinton, she has always dealt with gender inequality issues very rationally and fairly. Clinton herself has frequently been the target of attacks from feminist groups, such as d… | /r/MensRights | 13/01/14 07:42 AM |

Stop mentioning this as it is a fact. http://vimeo.com/67479381 Please refer to her actual posting. Her only tags are "rape culture," "spoken word," and "poetry." As rape culture is her school assigned topic as evidenced in the link I gave above, she is simply doing the best job she wants to for the topic at hand. She does not claim to be a feminist anywhere, not even in a Vimeo Tag! Heck, if I was in grade 12 and given "rape culture" as a… | /r/MensRights | 17/07/13 09:38 PM |

It's not really coming from a point of view of male blame, but rather female empowerment, which I 100% support. This is also simply one student's spoken word poem that she bravely posted to Vimeo and has had very few views (http://vimeo.com/67479381).

| 7 | Why are my daughters not feminists?Great find! I wonder if there's some type of correlation between girls without a positive male influence in their life (whether it be a great father like this one, an uncle, an older brother, etc.) and a tendency to find refuge in extreme feminist movements. Perhaps seeing an abusive father, or being surrounded with a mother who provided unfair judgment to the father, warps the girl's perceptions of 'male figures.' Better answers for a psychologist to answer. This is my issue with certain femini… | /r/MensRights | 13/06/13 03:26 AM |

I'm not in the 'raise kids as gender neutral' camp at all, but I recognize that every child needs some level of sympathy, and should learn how to manage their emotions. Often how we teach boys or girls is incorrect, in either of the extremes, either for boys to neglect their emotions or for girls to indulge their emotions. In this case, would your (brother or brother-in-law), trea… | /r/MensRights | 13/06/13 03:20 AM |
| 1 | If companies actually did pay women less for equal work, why would they hire men at all?I've been out to Calgary a few times, the center of a lot of these operations. And admittedly, there are quite a few women working on the oil rigs -- maybe 20%. Don't want to generalize too much here, but agree that there's a tendency that these jobs are more appealing for men. | /r/MensRights | 13/06/13 01:38 AM |

Remarkably close right... especially considering the higher rates of Chinese- or Indian-Canadian university enrollment? Wrong if you are a Black Canadian activist in the Hamilton area... there's a been a Facebook campaign and threats for investigation regarding this discrepancy.

But University of Toronto (in many respects the Harvard of Canada) has recently been caught in the middle of a "war against Men's Rights" where feminist groups have been openly bashing them. It has been so severe that the UofT Student Union even made a statement condemning the MRA group.

| 2 | Why MRA has become my 'Feminist' subreddit.By male locker room talk, just the theory that when you get guys in a room together, their only topic of conversation is to talk about women in a demeaning manner (perpetuated by movies that depict this I think). My locker room talk is usually just talking about school, work, where to find good deals on gatorade, and how sore my arms feel. I think in all cases in the developing world, a lot of the issues are solved by promoting education for females. Education empowers women -- they feel confide… | /r/MensRights | 10/06/13 08:21 PM |

| 2 | Why MRA has become my 'Feminist' subreddit.Thanks, this is very meaningful! I know several on this SR have a negative perception when it comes to the term "feminism" and I agree with you 100% in that we need to separate what feminism means from what we believe feminism represents.

| 5 | If companies actually did pay women less for equal work, why would they hire men at all?I agree, in general. I know for police and several emergency services positions, they are actively trying to encourage female participation (to the point where being a female gives you extra points in an application). Also trades schools are encouraging females. I think there is some validity to this. Yes it's unfair to the men who are perhaps more qualified. But I think it's a fair, albeit unperfect approach to deal with gender inequalities in these professions. What hits me is that similar rec… | /r/MensRights | 10/06/13 07:32 PM |

| 2 | If companies actually did pay women less for equal work, why would they hire men at all?Agree. Women tend to work less hours per year. Several reasons for this, some of them deal with the tendency of women to be more likely to take a paternity leave, women are statistically less likely to take on long work weeks, and women are less likely to take on extra work. There could be systemic issues at the root of this that may actually be relevant to a gender inequality discussion (ex. men feel a need to work for, women are discouraged to work long hours). But in no way does this indicate… | /r/MensRights | 10/06/13 07:25 PM |

It completely ends discussion. If I were to accept that premise, then the only correct thing to say is "OK. You're right. Nevermind." I think it's more constructive to see everyone as unique - there are no groupings. Every single person has a different, unique journey. My journey, views, and beliefs might be more similar to that black woman's than a man who looks identic… | /r/MensRights | 10/06/13 06:30 AM |
| 35 | If companies actually did pay women less for equal work, why would they hire men at all?I've used an argument similar to this in debates talking about 'quotas for minorities' (including women) in certain workplaces. Whenever I read women getting paid less for equal work, often there are several hidden facts in there... men are more likely to work overtime, work holidays, work night shifts, etc. Also, frequently "equal work" means "in the same industry" and does not make a distinction between say a head software engineer or a basic coder for an IT firm. A lot of these statistics are… | /r/MensRights | 10/06/13 06:16 AM |

Brave of you to post this with the knowledge that you would have friends that would react so strongly. If they are your close friends, I'd really recommend having conversations with them in person. Maybe explain fully some of your views on men's rights, and state why they are valid issues.

And it's no surprise most women, generally, do not like this term either because of the sensation that it provides more rights for women to the point of superseding equality.
