2	What are your thoughts on pornography and sex work? I think it's really unhealthy but so is junk food. Neither should be illegal.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	18/09/25 11:44 PM
10	"Sometimes I dream about a society without men" I would LOVE to see those who feel this way actually start their own society without men. I'll happily not participate.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	17/07/25 12:03 PM
4	If the people on this sub are opposed to feminism, how do we solve mens' issues while also solving the issues affecting women? I think feminism is a women's rights movement which I don't oppose at all. Women's rights are important and need to be taken care of. I just don't think feminism is an "equal rights" movement because they clearly don't give a crap about men or our issues at all.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	02/07/25 03:02 PM
6	Do you guys think feminism still encourages male gender roles? It does, but in a much more political way. Before it was "men should provide for the household and take care of his family" and now it's "men should vote for X or support Y if they love the women in their lives".	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	24/04/25 11:18 PM
18	How do you respond to "men will only listen to other men"? Men will listen to their closest friends, people who take the time to understand them and actually listen to them. Oftentimes that's other men. Men will generally not listen to unsolicited advice or criticism from random strangers.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	06/04/25 02:48 PM
14	How Do You See Feminism? I see feminism as a women's rights movement. It's necessary to listen to their issues but not to be confused with a gender equality movement which it is definitely not.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	10/03/25 03:00 PM
2	Here is a masterclass of how to completelly repell men from the leftwing This video is over an hour long but I think people should watch the end of the video first (starting at around 1h3m40s) to really understand the intention behind it.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	30/11/24 07:04 PM
33	Fd Pushes The Point That Misogyny And Racism Were To Blame For The Election Loss, Asking To Be Rebuffed. Its The Misandry From The Left That Cost Them The Election The fact is, men/women and black/white people have always been split by how they vote even when it's 2 white dudes running. You can look at the 2000 exit polls to see the same split across the same lines. Also, even if Harris got elected they'd still be calling the country racist and sexist anyways. If electing a black man didn't change the country there's no reason to believe electing a woman would either. To be clear I'm not against having a woman become president.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/11/24 07:13 PM

5	How do you respond intelligently to posts like this? Trans people are killing themselves partially because of their struggle with feeling accepted by society at large. Men are also struggling to feel accepted and currently have a suicide rate 4 times that of women. That number is likely under reported as men are also more likely to die of drug overdoses, alcoholism and many other vices which are just another way of killing oneself albeit more slowly.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	16/08/24 03:51 PM
30	Feminist here. I was wondering this: why is it ok to speak out against white racism, and heterophobia, but speaking out against misandry, you’re considered an anti-feminist/misogynist. A lot of feminists believe that the relative power one holds affects the morality of the action. So for example, most people would believe that randomly punching someone is bad but feminists would believe that "punching down" is particularly bad and "punching up" is relatively less bad. So in a nutshell men are allowed to be hated and treated harshly because collectively we have more power. It's a part of the reason why it's very important that all feminist narratives place women as the victims …	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	27/07/24 02:02 AM
46	What's the deal with r/menslib? But if women didn’t have the right to choose, and were forced to definitely have a child, you would be okay with forcing the father to be in its life and pay support? Sorry, maybe I'm not being clear but I'm arguing the complete opposite. I think women should have the right to choose whether to deliver a baby or not, and in addition to that the would-be father should also have the choice to become the legal father (or not). If (and only if) he chooses to be the legal father should he be legally …	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	03/07/24 03:26 AM
82	What's the deal with r/menslib? Menslib is a feminist sub which means discussion there has to exclusively be from a feminist perspective. I got banned there for saying I was in favor of a women's right to choose but it should be paired with a man's right to be disaasociated from the baby and any child support obligations.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	03/07/24 01:26 AM
244	Why are men turning to the right? The right doesn't really have good answers but at least validates how men feel while the left is focused on blaming the patriarchy than telling men to go fix it.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	21/06/24 04:49 PM
63	A Great Divorce from all romance and family building may be one of the few ways men may finally get heard. I wouldn't count on it. MGTOW has been around for a while and it didn't succeed in raising any awareness or sympathy. From what I've seen people are convinced that men have no legitimate issues or any issues we have is our own fault.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	11/06/24 08:18 PM
7	How do you combat the stats of men vastly outnumbering women in nearly all crime? I remember I used to argue with racists who would often cite crime statistics to show black culture was more violent. I told them to be real careful about throwing those kinds of arguments around because any comparison made against black people could also be used against men to make the same point. If racists are smart enough to see the folly of such an argument than maybe feminists would be too.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	11/05/24 01:26 PM
16	Thousands of Australian men have shared their thoughts on modern masculinity It just seems to me that "traditional masculinity" is just code for "everything I don't like about people"	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	03/05/24 03:52 AM
48	Thousands of Australian men have shared their thoughts on modern masculinity traditional ideas of masculinity that endorse aggression, stoicism and homophobia. Who decided that these ideas were "traditional" masculinity? There are literally thousands of cultures and subcultures of men. Whose tradition are we talking about and why is the conversation centered around them?	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	03/05/24 12:02 AM
70	‘We have a crisis of male violence’: Attorney-General says men must step up (collective punishment and responsibility) "Men will only listen to other men" is simply a misunderstanding. Men will listen to their friends and people who they respect and feel that understands them well... which is often another man. The idea that men will listen to some random dude lecture them about how they treat women because "men listen to other men" is just not right.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	19/04/24 12:12 AM
8	New Data Show Massive, Wider-than-Expected Global Gender Gap (Article) Half the world lives with under 7 dollars a day and they're worried that these countries don't have laws that allow women to start businesses.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	31/03/24 07:56 PM
9	as a trans man, how do i fit into male advocacy? I think it's hugely beneficial to have the perspective of a person who has literally walked in the shoes of both genders (so to speak). I agree with you that a lot of the back and forth between men and women is fundamentally driven by ignorance of the other gender's issues and what it's like to actually live as a man or as a woman. The only people who are actually qualified to make fair comparisons between the lived experiences of both genders are trans-people who have successfully passed as bot…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	09/01/24 07:11 PM
1	I absolutely hate term "Emotional Labour" When someone uses the term "emotional labor" to describe spending time with me and caring about what I'm saying I take it ss an admission that this person is not a true friend and is basically feigning interest or compassion for optics. It's great in the sense that the term allows fake people to feel safe outing themselves by framing themselves as the victim.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	09/01/24 05:11 PM
6	I think that "Male privilege" dosent exist Is it a common expectation for women to provide for and take care of a man for the rest of his life? No. Yet men gladly do it all the time. That's female privilege. Yes, men have privilege as well. Yes, women also have challenges as well. Are you a woman and triggered by this comment? If so, consider your reaction whenever you try to tell a man he's privileged.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	30/12/23 09:15 PM
3	Why Don't Men Support Each Other More? Men supporting each other sometimes becomes a "problematic male dominated space"	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	27/11/23 04:53 PM
2	Men's general lack of interest in Romance novels and movies is very often attributed to Misogyny and Patriarchal expectations. To what extent do you think that's true, If at all? Men don't read romance novels because they're not catered towards men's interests. I don't see why that's a problem. What I don't understand is why it's a problem that there's media that's written for men's interests.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	17/11/23 05:10 AM
4	"You should read Bell Hooks" a semi-rant about the experience of talking to feminists I remember reading "Will to Power" with the distinct impression that to her Patriarchy is everything bad about capitalism and that broadly speaking academics from psychologists to social workers need to reorient their theories (eg attachment theory) to blame the patriarchy as the root cause of our issues. So in a nutshell Bell Hooks idea of including men into feminism is to blame our problems on capitalism rebranded as patriarchy.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	17/11/23 05:05 AM
5	Just saw a post on the Predaddit sub about a guy who is bemoaning not being able to escape being a father when the mother refuses an abortion. It bothers me that men get shredded to pieces for that thought while women receive support since it's "her choice". You're basically describing a paper abortion. Also called a financial abortion.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	13/10/23 04:47 AM
53	How to dismiss the argument that we should focus on women's issues before tackling men's ones Any gender equality movement that only focuses on benefiting a single gender is a fake one.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/05/23 11:30 PM
137	"If you want a movement for men so bad, just start one yourself. There's nothing stopping you." There's definitely something stopping us. People will interrupt your meetings with protest, blow whistles into your ear and send death threats and bomb threats. All these things have happened. Men's issues are actively being suppressed.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	04/05/23 01:11 AM
6	Any good content creators/online activists who aren't bigots? Dr k and his channel Healthygamergg is amazing for mental health issues and is one of the few content creators who is able to speak about male issues without touching the third rail.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	20/03/23 04:55 PM
209	Why is it so hard to discuss men's issues in left spaces? My suspicion is that any discussion that isn't centered around women's safety or blaming patriarchy or capitalism will be taken to be misogynistic by progressive women.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	20/03/23 01:12 PM
30	Misandry and the lack of representation of mens issues on the left is what caused The manosphere to be normalized I argue it's the dismantling of "Patriarchy" that ironically created the manosphere. Boys obviously need a space to connect with men and receive mentoring. Without a space whose sole purpose is to help men and boys grow for our own benefit (which is what patriarchy is without the loaded negativity traditionally put on it) than boys will instinctively create that space for themselves. Without guidance, young boys will obviously create something primitive / immature. Basically feminism knocked all…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	24/02/23 03:29 PM
2	One Men and Violence Women are violent too but when they are men are held responsible for it and often assumed to be the perpetrators. When we look at comparative statistics in het-relationships we'd naturally come to the conclusion that men are more violent. However, this falls apart when we look at lesbian vs gay incidents of domestic violence. If we did we'd find that women commit more domestic violence against their partners than men. Life-time prevalence of IPV in LGB couples appeared to be similar to or higher…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	23/02/23 03:17 PM
3	Subs similar to this but have mens give their thought? I lurk here because I'm curious about this specific perspective and I want to respect the integrity of the space. If there were a post addressing men specifically I might comment.	/r/RedPillWomen	23/07/22 02:48 PM
5	Is this a sign that men aren’t attracted to me? Guys will date you if they find you attractive enough. If you're getting male attention and getting dates than take that as evidence that you're attractive enough. Keep in mind that not all guys will find you attractive but you can take comfort that the right guy will. It's other qualities that have to do with your behavior and character that inspires a guy to commit to you. Ultimately it will come down to how you express your feminity. I'd put more focus on asking yourself what kind of guy you'…	/r/RedPillWomen	28/04/22 02:30 PM
2	Is this a sign that men aren’t attracted to me? Try not to jump to conclusions. It could very well be that this man drinks to gather enough courage to talk to a beautiful woman like yourself because he's dealing with his own insecurities.	/r/RedPillWomen	28/04/22 02:11 PM
5	Inherent hostility of feminist spaces and academia I always thought that it was disingenuous to monopolize the concept of gender equality under the banner of "feminism" than exclusively address women's rights and issues. To be clear, I think women's rights are important and should be properly addressed but feminism shouldn't pretend to represent the entirety of gender issues nor should they pretend that they're concerned with gender equality when truly the only thing they care about is women's rights.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	24/02/22 06:45 PM
24	"Men need to do better." we have to develop a consciousness of our shared political interests. The problem is that any institution or social structure created by men for the benefit of other men and boys gets labeled as the patriarchy and protested to oblivion or repurposed to meet the needs of women and girls instead.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	24/02/22 02:31 PM
7	What happened to diversity and acceptance? Is that no longer a leftist ideal? Why can't we accept men for who they are? Men are already seen as accepted and privileged and therefore do not need to be included or considered in left wing circles. Under the leftwing definition of sexism/racism as the sum of power and discrimination it's even acceptable to discriminate against men because men have power and women do not.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	23/02/22 03:43 PM
53	Notice how these concepts are mostly (if not only) described as issues that ONLY affect women? I really dislike the term emotional labor. There's absolutely nothing wrong with expecting your partner to care about you and put effort into the relationship. Yes it will take work; all good relationships do. Yes, it should go both ways. If you don't want to put work into a relationship than maybe you're not ready for one. If your partner doesn't want to put effort into the relationship than break up and find someone who gives a damn.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	17/12/21 10:29 PM
1	How long is too long to deprive my partner of intimacy? Honestly I don't think you're in the relationship for the right reasons and neither is he. It's alright to feel a little sad when someone you love is away for a while but to feel suicidal is a sign of unhealthy emotional dependency. If I was giving him advice I'd tell him to find something outside of his girlfriend to help manage his feelings. It's not healthy to hold his own mental health hostage to get your affection.	/r/RedPillWomen	13/11/21 07:49 PM
1	What are your thoughts and opinions on comments like "we know not all men, but enough to be scared", "not all people are robbers but we still lock our doors" and "not all people have Corona, but we still wear masks" that are in respond to the comment "not all men"? For men I think the most effective comparison is with black men. All the arguments against men have already been used against black men by white supremacists and thus all the refutations are known left wing talking points. When framed this way, its clear feminists and racists both favor discrimination and systemic bigotry against black men - one emphasizes discrimination because they're black and the other because they're men.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	04/11/21 02:32 PM
6	He won’t date me because he’s saving himself for marriage? It doesn't sound like your man is comfortable with his feelings for you to admit he has them. It may be that he's not ready or it may be that he needs to feel safe enough emotionally to be vulnerable with himself and you before he can give you his heart.	/r/RedPillWomen	03/11/21 01:29 AM
35	Why is MensLib so bad Think of MensLib as a space for "woke-friendly" men. There are a few unspoken tenants of this new male identity that you may have violated without your knowledge. My guess is that there was something in your post that implied that owning male anatomy implies that you're a man which would offend trans-men and their identity. You have to remember that in these spaces the feelings of trans men is more important than your perspective or issues regarding the health of your body parts but they're also…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	02/11/21 09:49 PM
20	Having troubles and need a safe place to talk about it. He doesn’t feel special, he wants to feel special so badly. It might be worthwhile to learn his love language which is basically a vocabulary of things that make a person feel loved that is unique to each individual. Generally speaking people will respond to one or two of the following: touch, words of affirmation (like praise or appreciation), quality time, gifts or sexual attention (most guys will claim this but it's actually not true in many cases). The key thing to remember is that how you f…	/r/RedPillWomen	02/11/21 09:28 PM
5	Am I just stupid? Feeling "stupid" is a natural reaction to the awful treatment you're being subjected to. Just remember that how you feel is not who you are. There's nothing stupid about wanting to be a mother and have a family and wanting to study computer science. I'm really sorry to hear that you're being treated that way. Remember: that treatment reflects your mother's character, not yours.	/r/RedPillWomen	02/11/21 01:35 AM
17	Why are men attracted to innocence? Human beings in general are subconsciously attracted to traits that complement their own. If he's not attracted to innocence than he's the innocent one looking for a mother figure to lead him. If that's not the kind of man you want or the kind of role you want to play in a relationship than you need to project your innocence which will attract a protector/provider type.	/r/RedPillWomen	01/11/21 12:44 AM
9	Am I awful for feeling afraid to have kids when I feel like we won't be able to make it on one income 😕 Have you ever had a discussion with him in regards to budgeting and finances? It might be helpful to breakdown how much you're spending, how much you make and how much you expect a new baby to cost. It might alleviate your worries or it might wake him up to the reality of the situation. Worse case scenario is you get into a fight but if your relationship can't survive a discussion on finances than it's better to break up now than after you have a baby.	/r/RedPillWomen	27/10/21 06:24 PM
2	How can I improve my character? Journaling helps. The more kind, open and understanding to yourself the easier it will be to extend that to others.	/r/RedPillWomen	25/10/21 05:28 PM
9	How to become more feminine when my man also is feminine It can be really subtle but you need to make sure that you're not "ordering him" to do things. So instead of "I want you to plan this weekend" It's "What would you like to do this weekend?" There needs to be room for him to put himself into what he's doing, otherwise he's just following orders and doing his job. The longer he spends going through the motions of life the more dead he'll become on the inside.	/r/RedPillWomen	22/10/21 12:43 PM
34	How to become more feminine when my man also is feminine I'm a guy and I'll offer my perspective. It sounds like your dude lacks confidence that needs to be built up. The way you build his confidence is to allow him to make decisions and express genuine appreciation when he does. It's all about noticing the good things and making sure he knows you know. Nothing he does will be perfect and naturally you'll notice flaws in the way he does things but the key here is to remember that we're all human and making mistakes is ok. What you don't want to do is …	/r/RedPillWomen	22/10/21 12:21 PM
29	An anthropologist at Harvard arguing that "we really need to get rid of males". Wasnt it Queen Victoria who oversaw the creation of the largest Colonial Empire in history?	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	11/10/21 07:13 PM
29	Rebutting "men need to learn how to be emotional with other men!" and the like Men open up to eachother all the time. That's why they spend so much time at bars or pubs or with their bro friends - that's how they fill their cup. If women wanted men to open up to them specifically than they should stop complaining that listening to men is "emotional labor" and invalidating our experiences. A lot of women are emotionally abusive so to nobody's surprise we don't want to open up to them.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	01/10/21 01:38 PM
28	I don't know why it took this long, but I just realized that a fair amount of the left feels that sexism against men has the same urgency of racism against white people I don't blame you. Patriarchy is way too loaded as a term to address in a single conversation. It's wrapped up in a narrative that frames history as proof of moral failure that's inherent in men (and only men) and very hard to disentangle. It also deliberately denies or downplays any progress or attempt at progress men have made.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	29/09/21 04:56 PM
49	I don't know why it took this long, but I just realized that a fair amount of the left feels that sexism against men has the same urgency of racism against white people "Well, those are done by other men" Or "Right, that's a product of patriarchy which we want to take down"	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	29/09/21 04:36 PM
92	I made a series of posters to inform people about sexist discrimination, and its similarity with racist discrimination What's interesting to me is that the rationalizations people come up with when presented with these facts often mirrors that of that of racists. At least in my experience it does.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	26/09/21 08:59 PM
5	Why is feminism popular? I don't think the right question is: is it a hate group or is it not? I think a better question is: how much is hatred affecting feminism and where? And the followup question would be: what do we do about it? And remember, radical/militant feminism is already a response to oppression. If we start painting ourselves as victims of an oppressive hate group than how are we any different? We'll just be participating in another repeat of history.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	22/09/21 10:26 PM
2	The lack of sex and love is bad for mental health One of the things we need to do in our minds and hearts is to divorce the equivocation between love and sex and legitimize the practice of men nurturing themselves and eachother in a loving way. It's this deficit of love and our dependency on women to love us which is ultimately the problem IMO. Not to say we can't allow women to love us.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	22/09/21 06:51 PM
24	Why is feminism popular? At some point anti semitism was socially accepted across the political spectrum. Honestly I think it's always been the case that it's seen as proper to villainize the rich and powerful which is why the stereotype "privileged" was key to dehumanizing the Jewish people and why feminists will always downplay how much power they actually have. If women are seen to have power than suddenly they become responsible for things which makes them vulnerable to their own demonizing rhetoric. It's already ha…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	22/09/21 05:55 PM
7	Why it is not just cruel, but outright dangerous to humiliate imbalanced men. Isn't that more of a reason to ensure men and boys are sufficiently emotionally nurtured? It could literally save lives.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	21/09/21 09:06 PM
2	If intersectionality was to include men (without the blame game that usually goes on, currently), would you support it or not? What I find interesting is how gender or race will be strategically muted when dealing with certain issues. For example, BLM will take a male issue (police brutality) and strategically mute the gendered aspect of it to make it a racial one. No discussion on how men and women have a different experience of police brutality. In Canada, the drug war and eugenics movement was spear headed by a feminist senator: Emily Murphy but the issue is often framed as a racial one even though her motivation was…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	14/09/21 03:56 PM

I know what kind of home I'd like to live in but sadly I don't have the time to do it myself. I wouldn't mind at all if someone I trusted enough to marry was providing for me financially and if divorce were to happen hopefully I'd be entitled to spousal support just like she would be if the roles were reversed.

Income is also negatively associated with a woman's chances of getting married. Personally I already have a boss at work so I wouldn't want a boss at home not that I'm interested in bossing anyone around.

51	"Emotional labour" is the term women use when they emotionally abuse men. Guys, you all deserve to be in a relationship with someone you genuinely care about and the feeling is mutual. If she throws this term around than her feelings are not genuine. She doesn't care about you and when she does it's only because she expects something in return. If a loving relationship is what you're looking for than thank her for her time and make it clear what you're looking for than move on.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	04/07/21 12:39 PM

I'm still sympathetic towards women's issues but I don't think feminists are aware or even want to be aware that much of the rhetoric is causing damage to men which is why I can't identify as a feminist. For me it's about maintaining my self respect to not tolerate or participate in toxic discourse. I'm still not sure how to have the discussion withou…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	20/06/21 02:01 PM
4	Been dating a member of the friend group and wondered when the conversation on my stance on men's issues would come up. I've been asking myself what the best way to go about these conversations lately. One question that I think is important to ask is: "Are you willing to hold 'feminists' accountable when they are actively undermining gender equality?" If they say no than you can't be a feminist because no one is. If they say yes than you can share stories like Erin Pizzey's and ask them what they think.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	20/06/21 01:16 PM
