Luckily r/gay called it out when it got crossposted.fyi gender liberation includes both (good) feminism and men's activism. Just cause I said I don't support specifically activism for a single gender doesn't mean I support this sub any less. Love u guys <3 | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 14/08/21 11:31 PM |

| 19 | Apparently, misandry doesn't exist (as r/BlatantMisogyny welcomes misandrist mods)and it's hilarious especially since bipoc men are often more targeted by conservative misandrists, like they get the worst of the worst and these people expect them to pretend nothing's happening :/ | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 01/08/21 11:21 PM |

| 53 | LWMA official statement regarding recent comments on MensLibThe reason they hate us so much is because they aren't a men's activism sub like they say they are, they're a feminist sub that doesn't hate men quite as much as the other mainstream feminist subs. And I'm non binary, this isn't even coming from a place of feeling personally attacked, it's just what I see nonstop. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 21/07/21 04:41 PM |
| 6 | Is it true that men are the vast majority of rapists?There's no way to be sure based on the current stats. In all likelihood men account for the majority of rapists, but not by nearly as high a margin as people assume. The reason the stats are messed up is because they essentially can go by two sources, police reports or anonymous polling, both of which result in underreporting of female perpetrators. Police reports because in many countries female rapists are simply not considered rapists under law and in the countries where they are the vast maj… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 17/07/21 05:11 PM |
| 5 | Can these feminist-aligned, male advocacy groups (MensLib, Good Man Project, NOMAS) make any sort of meaningful contributions if everything they believe is bounded by feminism?They don't necessarily hurt the men's activism movement, but they don't help it either. At least they're willing to see men as complex human beings and admit that gender expectations hurt men too. But they still promote harmful stereotypes and condone general fear and distrust of men. Not great. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 15/07/21 07:42 PM |

| 7 | Why does my right to get a wedding cake from a single shop so important to people than my right to seek refuge in literally every DV shelter ever?I agree with your point but I think intersectionality is still important. Especially since black issues and men's issues are so closely intertwined. Radfems are saying that black men are still bad and gay men are still bad, so it's very important that a men's movement directly opposes that and asserts that it's not okay to strip someone of perceived oppression just because they are male. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/07/21 03:58 PM |
| 4 | Why does my right to get a wedding cake from a single shop so important to people than my right to seek refuge in literally every DV shelter ever?Seriously it bugs me so much. Yeah, I can buy a cake wherever I want now, thanks that's great. Can I also be assured that I'll have a place to go if I get fucking abused?? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 06/07/21 03:54 PM |

| 26 | New project to track the erasure of adult male victims in the mediaAnd why aren't feminists equally outraged?? This plays into the infantilization of women as well as male disposability. It hurts women too but I never see anyone calling it out on women's behalf. Probably because if they brought any attention to it people would realize that it treats male lives as less valuable. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 29/06/21 04:17 PM |

| 3 | Where are all the AMAB non-binary people?Gender fluidity is where that bug sometimes shows up and sometimes is dormant. So for me, I'll sometimes feel trans mtf and sometimes be perfectly fine as a cis man. But usually I feel somewhere in between. I don't know how that links into the proprioception thing, but that's essentially how it is. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/06/21 03:16 PM |

| 7 | Where are all the AMAB non-binary people?Yeah I've seen that there are some there, but it feels like they're just seen as an aesthetic to the people who follow that sub. If you look at the statistics of people who are out there are far more AFABs, and I can only think of like 2 AMAB non-binary tiktok/instagrammers who have a following, and a hell of a lot more AFABs. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/06/21 06:47 AM |
| 4 | Most women are okay with a benevolent patriarchy. Lemme explain.True. I'm not interested in being the breadwinner in a relationship, and you'd think my feminist friends would love that, but not really.

| 19 | Just this late night experience I had with a lesbian talking about MRAThat's good. It's definitely been easier for me to convince my lesbian friends than straight friends lol. I think because straight white women feel like if men get activism then they don't have any reason to feel 'oppressed', and lesbian women, even if they're white, don't feel threatened by that. Not that feeling oppressed is something people should want (take it from a gay nonbinary person), but nonetheless they do. Also it's kinda hilarious when people say "men have all the rights" lmao, I … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 17/06/21 10:32 PM |

| 2 | What role does religion play in misandry?MGM is the most obvious one. Plus there are more than a few teachings in Abrahamic religions that wouldn't fly post men's activism, like forcing men to be the breadwinner and protector, stigmatizing femininity among men, and having male worth be contingent on what he provides for his wife. Religion is basically a means of controlling the masses. I'm not an atheist but I'm more than willing to criticize a religion that perpetuates archaic, sexist beliefs.

| 4 | This is a convo I had with someone on instagram, I just wanted to get you guys' thoughts on itTLDR: I had an argument with someone on Instagram over whether or not prejudice is okay. They brought up black people and men's crime statistics which firmly places them in the alt-right category in my opinion. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 14/06/21 01:17 AM |
| 3 | Just because men don't have women's problems that does not mean they don't have their own problems.Essentially what they're saying is: I have problems, and therefore you don't.

He's definitely one of those people that supports men's activism but wouldn't call it men's activism ya know?

This isn't exactly what I'm trying to do, but I understand what you're saying. I mean that even though there are differences between men and women, these should not be formed into a set of rules. gender roles are tightly linked to our biological dimorphism. That may be true, but that only defines the attitudes of large groups of people, not individuals. Of course I don't view… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/05/21 02:01 AM |
| 7 | Why Does This Work Have to Be Seen As Anti-Woman?When I talk to a moderate, I always only start by talking about conservative misandry and the certain ways in which men have been disadvantaged due to the gender expectative system. And if I feel comfortable enough with them that I don't think they'd react negatively to me talking about feminist misandry as well I'll sometimes do that, but I'm more passionate about opposing conservative misandry anyways since it has more historical significance.

| 5 | Feminism and anti MGM intactivismI sort of agree with this. I say "feminist misandry" instead of "progressive misandry", because progressive misandry is an oxymoron, progressivism is inherently anti-sexist. I definitely agree that popular feminism includes some ridiculously neo-conservative ideas that (I hope) will age very poorly. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/05/21 01:28 AM |
| 3 | Feminism and anti MGM intactivismMale gender roles are misandristic in my opinion, so is the draft, domestic abuse laws, valuing men as a factor of their wealth, mgm, gay men being 30x as likely to be hate crimed as lesbian women because social deviance among men is much more harshly punished than among women, excluding female on male rape from rape definitions, 94% of police violence victims being male, sexism in judicial courts, in certain countries the death penalty only being allowed for men, male physical and mental health… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 27/05/21 01:17 AM |

At the same time, I support many initiatives in the men's rights movement but find they spend far too much time and energy complaining about feminism instead of working on sociopolitical change to achieve the initiatives they want for men.

| 1 | What is Neoracism?I'm a race and gender abolitionist, so I agree that it's dumb when people put more emphasis on race rather than less, but I do think that while race is a social construct, racism isn't, so I think blm, end asian hate, etc. are all very good causes. It's the same way with men's activism. I'm a gender abolitionist, so I think sex is a social construct. But sexism isn't. So it still makes sense to have a movement for men. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 24/05/21 01:40 AM |

I didn't realize it then but it was only because that's what people forced on me. I still have to be fairly masculine at home but when I'm at school I can act more naturally.

| 3 | It’s REALLY not that difficult..It has a really implicitly sexist undertone. Men are more complex than people realise, and I hate when people make jokes about stuff like, 'men will do anything to look at boobs', cuz even though I'm attracted to women as well as men I really DON'T want to look at boobs all the time, most of the time I explicitly avert my attention because I'm not usually in the mood. I just wish people would see men as complex in their sexuality the way they see women most of the time. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 10/05/21 01:12 AM |

It's like I can never catch a break, if I hang out with conservatives they're sexist because they force stupid gender stereotypes and expectations on me, and treat men like sex obsessed monsters, and if I hang out with liberals it's better because I can be feminine but they say shit like "women are more attractive than men in general" which sucks too.

| 3 | What type of society do we live in: Patriarchal or Gynocentrist?Yup. Capitalism is, in my opinion, the entire reason that sexism and gender roles exist, for everyone, male female or nb. Capitalists used to value men and women in different roles because of the differences biologically, men could work hard labor easier, and women could raise the next generation of workers easier. It was efficient. Still morally wrong to force people into these boxes, but they were capitalists, they didn't care.

| 1 | How Conservative Lawmakers Hurt MenYeah, this is exactly why I usually take this sub with a grain of salt. It feels like almost all the posts that talk about misandry here are focused on misandristic feminists, and ignoring the huge amount of misandry that conservatives spew. Honestly I think pretty much all of mens problems come from conservatism or capitalism, and are at most reinforced by some feminists. And I think the best way forward is just to get ppl to support both feminism AND mens activism, not just one or the other. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 11/04/21 11:19 PM |

| 9 | In the era of gender equality, why men are still expected to sacrifice their lives to defend women instead of expecting women to start acting like adults and defending themselves? Why the people who claim to be against gender roles want to force gender roles on men?It really sucks that the politicians that I like the most are still like this. Like, I love Andrew Yang 100% when it comes to economic policies, drug policies, and pretty much everything that isn't gender based. But he still reinforces these completely outdated expectations.

White ppl dont face systemic issues in the way men do, it rly doesnt make sense to say that racism against white ppl is at all comparable to sexism against men.

I'm so happy to see this, keep it up guys!When did drag races become a gay thing (again?) There's only ever been one straight guy on Ru Paul's lol, I don't have any problem with straight guys doing drag at all, but it's pretty rooted in gay culture at this point. I don't understand the whole concept of "gay culture" I didn't either when I used to identify as straight, but I kind of understand it now. There needs to be some emphasis placed on the difference between gay people and gay culture. Not all gay people participate in gay culture… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 17/03/21 09:38 AM |
| 1 | Makeup for men. The existence of products like these that break male gender expectations means we're making huge progress. I'm so happy to see this, keep it up guys!No I'm totally open to having discussions with conservatives! And I'm not at all trying to shame anyone! I just don't think that it's possible to be really pro men's rights from a conservative perspective, since so many men's issues come from conservatism itself. (i.e. father's rights, rape definitions, domestic abuse assistance, ect.) | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 17/03/21 09:29 AM |

| 1 | Makeup for men. The existence of products like these that break male gender expectations means we're making huge progress. I'm so happy to see this, keep it up guys!Progress is progress. There are more important issues, but this is good. Mens rights activism IS progressivism. If you're conservative, you're not an mra, and you should really reevaluate what it is you support. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 17/03/21 04:07 AM |

| 6 | Makeup for men. The existence of products like these that break male gender expectations means we're making huge progress. I'm so happy to see this, keep it up guys!Yeah makeup is makeup but it isn't marketed as such. Until makeup is marketed androgynously and men aren't condemned for wearing it it makes sense to have some specifically for men. It's also a good entry point for men who still have internalized sexism, so they can still feel like they're fitting their gender expectations while wearing makeup. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 17/03/21 01:32 AM |
| 7 | Makeup for men. The existence of products like these that break male gender expectations means we're making huge progress. I'm so happy to see this, keep it up guys!It exists, nothing is gonna change that, so why don't we make it equal? It really isn't that big of a deal if someone wants to make themself look pretty. It's also pretty important in gay male culture, i.e. drag races, which I don't think we ought to be taking away from those men. (I'm bisexual myself, so it's kind of important to me not to be taking away from gay culture) I really don't see how a men's rights activist could look at this and not see it as a win | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 17/03/21 12:26 AM |

I'm really happy to see that James Charles is tackling this subject and encouraging the beauty industry to be more inclusive. The "exposing" in the title is just clickbait lol, he's pro male oriented makeup. We're making progress guys, keep it up! | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 16/03/21 10:34 PM |
| 1 | Most non-boomer feminist activists express extremely concerning anti-liberal views about how races should be treated. Let's criticize their misandry AND their racism.Because of intersectionality, it's impossible for a men's rights advocate to be anti BLM. Being killed by the police: More men than women More black people than white people Education bias: Targets men Targets black people The list goes on. Focus on men's issues, black people are genuinely oppressed so don't come on here and say 'woe is white', you're giving a bad name to the movement in general. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 16/03/21 03:05 AM |

| 3 | My English class just had a discussion about gender, and it went better than I could have ever expected.Yeah, there have been some hateful ideas going back that far, but that shouldn't be synonymous with women's activism, which has been necessary since the industrial revolution (which abolished the need for gender roles in society), and still is necessary in certain ways, albeit less so than men's activism. The only problem is when women's activists minimize the need for men's activism. Not all feminists think the same way, so while it certainly is safe to say that some feminists even back then we… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 23/02/21 07:51 AM |

| 7 | My English class just had a discussion about gender, and it went better than I could have ever expected.I think they probably do actually care, because everyone can tell that the teacher of that class is a feminist who tries to minimize men's issues. If it was lip service I feel like they would've waited for another opportunity because this might actually affect their grade in the class. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 23/02/21 04:30 AM |
| 11 | My English class just had a discussion about gender, and it went better than I could have ever expected.I don't think it's even a hate filled minority of women it's just a hate filled minority of feminists, and I get the same feeling from radical male feminists as female feminists. I don't think that the feminist movement is inherently bad; I agree with their ideas when it comes to certain issues, but I think that a the hate filled minority of them have started excusing misandry and pretending that men don't have any gender based issues. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 23/02/21 03:50 AM |
| 8 | My English class just had a discussion about gender, and it went better than I could have ever expected.Thanks! It really helped me that all the girls in the class seemed open to the mrm and there were definitely a couple of other boys in the class who were into the movement in general, so we're making huge strides here! | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 23/02/21 03:06 AM |
| 13 | My English class just had a discussion about gender, and it went better than I could have ever expected.Absolutely, yeah. I think a lot of people have gotten into the mrm recently as well, partially because as a society we're constantly moving further progressive, but also because a lot of people have a lot of free time right now so it's easier to notice something dumb that happens to men, like male rape victims not being recognized, and doing a lot more research into it and finding a page like ig @ thetinmen to really understand what it is that the mrm is about. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 23/02/21 02:53 AM |

| 20 | Intersectionality is used to unite women, and at the same time to divide men.Yup. That's exactly why the white women have trouble backing up their claims that men don't face issues. The intersectionality makes it impossible to be either pro-mra and anti-blm or vice versa. They are typically pro-blm but they can't explain why the same issue doesn't matter when it's intersectional with being male. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 08/02/21 11:57 PM |

| 5 | Popular left wing discourse about race and gender are contributing heavily to radicalization in a variety of areas."women attempt suicide more" I know this isn't the main point, but that's actually not true. While most suicide attempts are from women, most people who attempt suicide are men. Women are more likely to decide against it, then try again later, which inflates the numbers. When men commit suicide they're more likely to be very decisive about it, because many of them feel that they don't have anyone who would care if they did. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 25/01/21 03:40 AM |

| 2 | As a recently ex-feminist I have found that Feminism (at least the most prominent online forms) is Toxic, extremely hateful and anti male.Nah dude, the truth is that you can find radicals of any movement going back to the start of it. I'm sure people will try to do the same thing to the mra movement eventually. Feminism sure does have some hateful ideology but the greater issues are the gender roles and oppression that men have faced forever. Long before feminism. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 12/01/21 09:36 AM |
| 2 | The myth of benevolent sexism: treating women better than men is not sexism against women.It was saying that there are negative effects of so called, 'Benevolent Sexism' to women, but the most important ones are against men. That post is from, imo, the best mra account on instagram, just cut him some slack. He's arguing against it and saying that it leads to male perpetrator bias. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 12/01/21 05:56 AM |

Parts of it are good, and parts are bad, just like anything. And I think that anyone who doesn't think there is any need for a men's movement is woefully ignorant of the state of gender issues. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 11/01/21 02:51 AM |
