| 1 | Women need to be held accountable for the ways they mistreat others. So do men. So what's the solution?Frick. Maybe Twitch, some kind of group chat thing. | /r/MensRights | 19/05/19 11:26 AM |

| 1 | Women need to be held accountable for the ways they mistreat others. So do men. So what's the solution?I don't see how it differs much. In the title I say that men and women both need to be accountable for how they treat each others. I say essentially the same thing in my post. I apologize for the confusion. | /r/MensRights | 19/05/19 01:31 AM |
| 0 | Women need to be held accountable for the ways they mistreat others. So do men. So what's the solution?No, you're just at fault for being a flawed human like everybody else. We're all flawed, that's what I'm saying. | /r/MensRights | 19/05/19 01:21 AM |
| 1 | What are some ways that men hurt women? Conversely, what are some ways that women hurt men?I'm feeling what you're saying. You're right, I'm pretty aggressive. Like what you were saying, I didn't feel like I have control when I was young so I just imposed control on others. It's hard for me to have accountability as well as take-chargeness for my own life, so I keep trying to improve. Here's one concern I have: how can we prevent reverse sexism happening if women do take accountability for their problems? How do we ensure that both genders take accountability for all these problems eq… | /r/MensRights | 19/05/19 12:41 AM |
| 1 | What are some ways that men hurt women? Conversely, what are some ways that women hurt men?Very interesting stuff here. This is poignant: It is reasonable to conclude that young women engaging in confrontational dialog trigger young men to respond with physical aggression. And also: In a study of teenagers, Hilton (2000) found that boys were more aggressive toward other boys than toward girls. In contrast, girls were more likely to be aggressive toward boys than toward other girls. This is what we should be focusing on. Do you know how feminists respond to this? Anyway, I really think… | /r/MensRights | 18/05/19 11:29 PM |
| 1 | What are some ways that men hurt women? Conversely, what are some ways that women hurt men?Right, I do know now that men and women hurt each other in different ways, and have been shown evidence to prove it. But this thread of comments originally started with a redditor's assertion that men employ physical abuse and women mental. That was debunked, because men and women employ both types at relatively equal rates. But my original question was answered: men and women will employ the same types of abuse but in different ways. Now we're digging into those different ways. | /r/MensRights | 18/05/19 09:11 PM |
| 1 | What are some ways that men hurt women? Conversely, what are some ways that women hurt men?Threats and extortion are mental abuse. Women are more likely than men to employ mental abuse. But men make threats and extort as well. They can threaten women with violence or taking away money/opportunities/resources, threatening to blackmail them or harm/steal from them in many ways. So the fact that abusive women can threaten to take custody of kids doesn't mean that women threaten more in general. We would need to know what kinds of threats men make, and weigh those different types of menta… | /r/MensRights | 18/05/19 08:58 PM |
| 1 | What are some ways that men hurt women? Conversely, what are some ways that women hurt men?Your question asks if we hurt each other in the same way. The answer is no. Oooooh good point. That ties back to my OP. So yes, there are some differences. But your assertion was that women are knowingly more abusive because of the unfairness of the system. Do you actually have a source to back that up? Because as you quoted here: Notice the sentence, "more likely to happen when a woman is abusing." Abusive women are more likely to use the system, but it doesn't mean women as a whole are more ab… | /r/MensRights | 18/05/19 07:43 PM |
| 1 | What are some ways that men hurt women? Conversely, what are some ways that women hurt men?In the same link you posted, Brown notes at the beginning that the ways men and women abuse are very similar. The fact that women have more of an ability to use the system to their advantage doesn't necessarily mean they are more likely to do it, and it doesn't mean they are more likely to commit mental abuse. The article seems to point out above everything else that the system is rigged in women's favor, but it doesn't say women are more abusive, as you said in your final sentence: women will k… | /r/MensRights | 18/05/19 07:23 PM |
| 1 | What are some ways that men hurt women? Conversely, what are some ways that women hurt men?Something interesting I noticed in the link is that it says men are more likely to cause more serious physical and psychological harm. This implies that men and women might be aggressive at similar rates, but women's abuse isn't as harmful, not even their mental abuse. It also states that women are more likely to be indirect about their aggression. That's doesn't necessarily mean they're more likely to commit mental abuse, just that their abuse isn't as directly aimed at the other person. I gues… | /r/MensRights | 18/05/19 07:13 PM |

| 1 | What are some ways that men hurt women? Conversely, what are some ways that women hurt men?Very interesting. I did notice that the study says men cause greater physical and psychological harm. Women have more indirect forms of aggression. This would suggest not that women run the domain of mental abuse, but that their mode of abuse is less direct, and their form of mental abuse is weaker than men's, which would refute your statement. I think there could be better studies out there, as you implied. | /r/MensRights | 18/05/19 03:52 AM |

| 1 | What are some ways that men hurt women? Conversely, what are some ways that women hurt men?Men can be mentally abusive too, towards women. And women can be physically abusive to men for that matter. Men and women both engage in all the types of abuse. Yes, mental abuse lasts a lifetime. Abuse in general has long-lasting effects. | /r/MensRights | 17/05/19 10:07 PM |

What are some ways that you express your femininity, or ways that you wish you could express it more easily?I don't agree with your notion of a hypermasculine society. Women are the protected class in society. Women are certainly protected but that doesn't mean society is feminine. If this was a more feminine society we would be gentler with people as a whole, more accommodating, more focused on raising children to be mentally/physically healthy and self-assured and integrated, not hyper-competitive and selfish and living unhealthy lifestyles, etc. Like literally it would be more communitarian.

What are some ways that you express your femininity, or ways that you wish you could express it more easily?You'll have to explain this. A few days ago you were going off about how women have discovered masculine power and they aren't going back. Now you say it's a problem? Like everything, there are positives and negatives. In this case I try to acknowledge that there are two sides to everything, though I am a pretty scattered person.

My overarching opinion about the state of the western world at the moment is it is overall hypermasculine. That even goes for women, especially feminists. Heh, definitely NOT a male only issue.

It was $100 a month, not per session, so it wasn't bad but I need the money for food and rent. Since stopping I've been cooking more, weightlifting, sleeping better, and doing better in school. Some of that was due to learning self-acceptance and self-love from therapy, which helped me to have accountability and stop feeling like a victim.

How do you measure success in your therapy? I realized that I didn't need to spend $100 a month to talk to someone about my problems. So I reach out to my friends and family for advice and support instead, I write and draw as emotional outlets, and I use willpower to push back negative feelings and get things done.

I think everyone should be able to do both. It's just that the average woman is better already at being vulnerable and the average man better at being strong and stoic.

To be fair, I've said men would benefit from learning how to articulate and express their true emotions and to be vulnerable, not that they need to do it. It's up to men to decide if they want that for themselves. Unhappy and insecure men should consider this more heavily.

What are some ways that you express your femininity, or ways that you wish you could express it more easily?Yes. Pretty much anyone I meet though, I wonder what unique ways they struggle in life or in what ways they have been hurt. For example, knowing so many men in America have been circumcised. How do they feel that that was done to them? Or, are they truly happy with how they were raised, or the career they chose? Etc.

But people should not accept themselves for "who they are" if they are not happy with themselves or they're unhealthy. They should accept what they cannot change, but work to change what they can.

It doesn't make sense, people shouldn't be driven to hurt others like that. But lots of people do that because of abuse and trauma.

The article is about a vegetative rape victim unwillingly giving birth. Weird that you didn't acknowledge that but creative suggestion.

Birth rate is declining for a reason. We address those reasons and the birth rate will go back up. We start by making pregnancy as painless as possible through technological/medical advancements, and I mean really putting a lot of funding into improving the process for women rather than putting so much money in the military, for example.

It's my style... I like tangents 😁 But I'll wrap this tangent up with this. Yes, boys and girls tend to be drawn toward certain pursuits. A study done in Sweden found that even with lots of equality, men and women still gravitate toward the same types of jobs. But I think as you said, we are more advanced now than before.

I'm fairly young, no kids and I've interacted with kids at the park and such, and even I feel weird about it honestly. I wish it weren't like that. A pretty large proportion of them assume you must be single if you're out with your kids without their mom... and that assumption often gets pretty weird and gross. Now that's interesting.

Educating them is different. I wouldn't want to be forced into doing masculine things, but I certainly would like to be encouraged to try traditionally masculine pursuits and be shown how to do them.

Your example, if universal enough of an experience, proves my point that men just don't do those traditionally feminine things.

Any attempt to change that is an attempt to remove diversity. Too much diversity can be a bad thing. If we are too different then we don't understand each other, conflict ensues, drastic things like wars and deaths happen, etc. There needs to be some unity to hold us together or we fall apart.

They're traditionally feminine things and men have avoided them. That avoidance is damaging to the emotional health of men, as we can see with rising suicide rates.

| 1 | How do you feel about men taking on traditionally feminine roles and women taking on masculine roles in society? Do you think we should support the blurring of gender roles, or fight to keep traditional gender roles in place?Yes I agree with that. Holding fast to a strict 50/50 divide doesn't make sense. But encouraging people when they're young to pursue whatever it is they're interested in (mixed with what they're good at) is a good step. For example, not discouraging kids if they are interested in fields of work which differ from social norms, as well as giving them as comprehensive an overview of their choices as possible. | /r/MensRights | 25/04/19 11:40 PM |

We can always do more. Think of all the kids in your city. There's at least a percentage of them who are actively being abused at this very moment.

Your optimism is beautifully hurtful. Unless you can actually create change, giving hope to the hopeless is only going to make the fall that much harder.

I have to say that you have completely shifted my perspective on the rape issue. I don't know if what you've cited applies to other countries besides America, but you have certainly convinced me that rape and sexual assault should not be discussed as an issue that primarily affects women.

As a result, they no longer have a choice (for most women), and have to work. I don't see how that's a problem. Women should have to work. Men should too.

Traditional gender roles leverage and hurt men and women in different ways, to the point that two radical movements have risen (MRA/feminism) in which neither side understands each other.

Breadwinning moms provide their money to their stay-at-home husbands and their children. They are not only providing for themselves.

In that case, women are seeking to provide and protect.

That is to say, sexual abuse is no less an issue because it happens locally, even if it's one of the only real problems that American women face … | /r/MensRights | 24/04/19 08:03 AM |
| 3 | In America, men and women are nearly equal through a masculine lens. But through a feminine lens, men have become severely unequal.War-rape and sexual assault isn't, and has never been, an issue faced by only women. It's a bit ridiculous to say it's an example of oppression of women, and only women, when even today it happens to both. Of course, I agree that sexual assault and rape have historically affected both men and women. I never said it was only faced by women. I mentioned rape because it has generally been shown to be more commonly committed against women by men. Perhaps you could find evidence that that isn't true,… | /r/MensRights | 24/04/19 07:44 AM |
| 2 | In America, men and women are nearly equal through a masculine lens. But through a feminine lens, men have become severely unequal.This was told to you no doubt by the same ideological feminists who told you the other bit Yes I know. Feminists think that women were oppressed, while men think that women just didn't want to do what men were doing. Turns out both happened in the style of a feedback loop. there is, again, no evidence. No record of such oppression. i really doubt you will believe me, but if you were to LOOK for it, look for it in the record, not repeated circular references to it, not impressions and feelings an… | /r/MensRights | 24/04/19 07:05 AM |
| 0 | In America, men and women are nearly equal through a masculine lens. But through a feminine lens, men have become severely unequal.You're right, and I think that perspective is more of a stereotype that I've been raised to believe about men. But even if men haven't historically been emotional or vulnerable, perhaps we're at a point now where encouraging emotional expression is a worthy solution to the increasing suicide rates? Another, and imho much more likely explanation is a rise in 'self hatred' and 'hopelessness' among men who have been taught that all men are responsible for oppressing women, see, men love women, and … | /r/MensRights | 24/04/19 06:46 AM |

| 1 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?MRIs require that the patient remain still. In orser to get an effective MRI on a newborn, they need sedation. Do they really need sedation? What if you give them some food that promotes sleepiness (melatonin?) and/or wrap the baby tightly in a blanket, wait for the baby to be asleep? Also, couldn't the board be convinced that circumcision itself is already ethically questionable, and the fact that we've never even tried to see the effects on the brain is a big red flag, given that the babies ar… | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 05:28 PM |
| 1 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?It could cause more harm, but kids who are already going to be circumcised are going to be harmed anyway. There just needs to be definitive proof that babies are psychologically harmed by circumcision before it can be drastically reduced. | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 04:40 PM |
| 1 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?The child isn't volunteering himself to circumcision either. | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 04:38 PM |
| 1 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?You could wait for the baby to fall asleep before putting him in there or feed him something that promotes sleepiness, or have him go in there with his mom, or you could wrap his body in a blanket snugly so that he doesn't move around so much. | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 04:37 PM |

| 1 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?Yes, that's the study I'm referring to in the second paragraph. | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 04:33 PM |
| 1 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?Why is that? Do you predict that the babies' brain functioning would generally be normal? | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 06:23 AM |
| 1 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?Yes, unfortunately expensive. The problem is even if it's already known to some, it's not convincing to the rest of the population. This could be the evidence the intactivist movement needs to drastically reduce the still oddly high rates of circumcision nationwide! | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 06:04 AM |
| 3 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?Thanks for the link, I'll read this more in-depth when I have more time. the problem is that no-one wants to admit that hundreds of millions of men are permanently sexually damaged because part of their penis was chopped off as a baby. It's easier to keep mutilating boys than to admit it's harmful. This has to be one of the saddest parts about this issue in all honesty. Many have believed their whole lives that getting cut is normal. Clearly there's gonna be a lot more cognitive dissonance when … | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 05:35 AM |
| 0 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?It's not. But circumcision is an easier issue to address. | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 04:22 AM |
| 1 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?Okay. I'm assuming I can find out more about how to do that online? That would require some heavy campaigning on my part I would assume? | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 03:13 AM |
| 3 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?That's such bullshit if true! | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 02:46 AM |
| 7 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?Lol. Doctors don't want it to be revealed that circumcision is a dumb idea? | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 02:45 AM |
| 1 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?What if I'm not a researcher? Would I have to find one who would be willing to do the research? | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 01:56 AM |
| 4 | Why haven't more researchers tried to run MRI scans on babies before and after circumcision?I really don't want to believe that this is true, but I know there are a few groups (namely religious ones and groups that have a financial incentive to continue routine circumcision) that would be negatively impacted by this research should it reveal incriminating information. But I want this research to happen. How can we make it happen? | /r/MensRights | 12/04/19 01:46 AM |
| 1 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?Because pregnancy and childbirth are the worst things a woman can be put through and can lead to lifelong health effects and problems, so forcing her to go through 9 months of hell to harvest a baby is kinda weird. Like I said though, the focus should be less on making abortion more accessible and more on decreasing the rates of accidental pregnancies as much as possible. | /r/MensRights | 11/04/19 08:39 PM |
| 1 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?Just because some people want to get it done doesn't mean everyone does. What about men who find the downsides outweighed the benefits for them? Those people will have to live the rest of their lives negatively affected by someone else's decision. | /r/MensRights | 11/04/19 08:28 PM |
| 1 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?Morally pro-life, legally pro-choice, and overall in favor of funding education on better sex practices to lessen accidental pregnancies, as well as improving birth control because currently, the symptoms of birth control suck. | /r/MensRights | 11/04/19 12:23 AM |
| 2 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?I think some doctors who believe strongly in the practice might keep doing it, but if we assume that most doctors do it for money, then yes that would probably end it. But, some parents who strongly believe in it would go to those doctors and get it done for free, aka there would still be demand. | /r/MensRights | 08/04/19 03:34 AM |
| 2 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?Fair point. I think they are comparable only to a certain degree, in that they are both genital mutilation. I think I'm coming at it from an ethical/generalist point of view which has its downfalls. You're right, disagreement and improvement from such disagreement can only be valuable. I think I understand your original point, and in future debates on the topic it will be beneficial for me to bring up the information you stated about the nerve endings of the foreskin, even perhaps mentioning as … | /r/MensRights | 08/04/19 12:25 AM |
| 1 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?It is good to make the comparison because it shows nonsensical double standards and furthers the main point that all types of non-consensual genital mutilation should be banned. It is a fruitless endeavor to argue over which type of mutilation is more damaging or not, because all of them are bad. Doesn't matter if the foreskin has more nerve endings than the clitoris. All forced genital mutilation is bad. You're stuck arguing about something pointless. All that matters is we're on the same side … | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 11:49 PM |
| 1 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?My problem is the fact that this is a fruitless argument. Chopping genitals without consent is a big fat no, regardless of how many nerve endings are involved. Also, just because the foreskin has more nerve endings than the clitoris doesn't mean it is synonymous with the clitoris. This is the image I'm talking about that compares the two types of genitalia. As you can see, the head of the penis is similar to the clitoris in this regard: https://web.duke.edu/anatomy/siteParts/Netter_Presenter_Gal… | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 11:01 PM |
| 4 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?Thank you for the warning, really puts things into perspective. I feel less nervous about presenting the topic to the class and I think in the end it would be worth it. | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 10:52 PM |
| 2 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?Wouldn't that just increase instances of circumcision lol? | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 10:49 PM |
| 1 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?Because for some reason society sees one of them as far worse than the other one. | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 10:48 PM |

| 1 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?Does it really matter when both should be equally outlawed from being practiced non-consensually on children? | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 10:17 PM |
| 1 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?Lol putting them in labor camps would probably strengthen their beliefs about it. I appreciate these suggestions, thank you. I believe I have to start with making an even better argument, which could then be put in literature and such. | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 07:34 PM |
| 2 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?But if you look at a diagram of how the two types of genitals compare to one another, it shows that the clit develops into the head of the penis. But I agree that comparisons are hard to define in a simple way. | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 07:31 PM |
| 3 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?So how do I go about changing society's opinion that circumcision is a right? | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 07:22 PM |
| 2 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?So the Supreme Court would be the ones to challenge over what procedures are covered by insurance companies? If MGM became less socially acceptable, would the Supreme Court have to follow suit? Or are the other branches of government also involved? | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 07:12 PM |
| 2 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?Can you name specific people? Is it just the global religious leaders? | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 07:10 PM |
| 3 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?Okay but my point is that the tip of the penis is basically like the clitoris anatomically. That's interesting that there are 22,000 nerve endings in the foreskin and just more support for the need to illegalize all kinds of genital mutilation. | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 06:57 PM |
| 11 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?How can genital mutilation ever be right when you are irreversibly chopping off a part of the body without consent? That's the core of the issue. Any permanent alteration to someone's genitals without their consent is never right unless it is a medical emergency. It's just funny that people vehemently fight for the right to put a knife on their baby. It's really not a right anyone should have over a person, let alone a baby. | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 06:54 PM |
| 2 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?Oof. That's like millions of people who belong to that group... | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 06:41 PM |
| 8 | How do we make the practice of circumcision illegal?While true, that means that millions of babies are still being circumcised in the meantime. Why wait a few decades until it phases out when I can do something right now? | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 06:05 PM |
| 1 | 38 weeks pregnant with my first child, and I finally got asked the question...Make sure the doctors at the hospital you go to don't try to force you to get him circumcised. Sounds like some hospitals are adamant about people getting it done. | /r/MensRights | 07/04/19 05:53 PM |
