20	Opinion \| Football Won't Turn Boys Into Men She's not wrong, and having concern for the health of boys is a lot more important than you're giving this article credit for. I also don't think anyone has a right to say something is a "definitive" way to be a man, especially if they advocate for anyone to expose themselves to harm to do it.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	21/07/26 08:02 AM
29	Saw a comment claiming that Domestic violence in lesbian couples is lower and according to this perpetrators are not women. How true is it? There have been studies before 2016 that showed lesbians had higher rates for DV and divorce/separations than any other group.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	17/07/26 07:25 AM

6	How to discuss with feminists? saying "patriarchy" implies every man is a little bit complicit, but no women never. They've already figured out how to get around this with the term "internalized misogyny" and other phrases that explain how the oppressed supports their own oppression when "they have been made to believe they will benefit from it". And while I don't disagree with the term "internalized (blank)" to talk about the concept of someone who perpetuates a form of bigotry they themselves are a target of, I disagree tha…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	08/07/26 07:15 AM
5	We need to talk more about Left Wing politics and less about feminism You just gave the perfect example for why, in my discussions with this person in two separate places in this post, I conclude that between the issues of class struggle and gender equality, I'd rather solve the problem of feminism before class struggle because then we'd be a stronger force against classism. There is a reason I point out that feminism has been used as a tool by the elites, not because they agree but because it maintains their control.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/07/26 06:12 AM
1	We need to talk more about Left Wing politics and less about feminism You asked that in another comment thread and I did quote you already.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/07/26 02:10 AM
4	We need to talk more about Left Wing politics and less about feminism The more people you have fighting the class struggle, the easier the fight can be. We already outnumber the elites, but we need to outnumber their enforcement to have any progress.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/07/26 02:06 AM
-3	Liberals Offer Nothing To Men... Redpill Filled The Vacuum I mean, the legacy media isn't on feminism's side either, they exist only to cause fighting because it generates clicks, but they don't get blamed for that, men do.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/07/26 02:01 AM
8	We need to talk more about Left Wing politics and less about feminism I think you're missing the broader point here. This is a space to talk about men's rights and advocacy, not class struggles. You're receiving pushback because you're agreeing with the OP who is trying to police this space from its intended focus. As for your question, I would choose resolving the feminism issue because the way I would do it would better unite us in the fight against classism, and taking away a tool of classism that keeps us divided is a better means to resolving class struggles.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/07/26 01:57 AM
3	We need to talk more about Left Wing politics and less about feminism The argument you're making says one thing and you claim to believe another. Maybe you're not presenting your beliefs well, I've done the same before.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/07/26 01:53 AM
6	We need to talk more about Left Wing politics and less about feminism I am arguing that focusing on class struggle yields the best result for everyone. That is how you're arguing that a focus on classism is most important when both (as well as other issues) are just as important.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/07/26 01:50 AM
4	We need to talk more about Left Wing politics and less about feminism Do you believe feminism has a more negative impact on men and society overall than billionaires? I believe the elites have used feminism as a means to control men and women alike, but even if we deal with class struggles, the social issues caused by feminism will still exist, thus only focusing on one doesn't actually help anyone in the long run.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/07/26 01:49 AM
11	We need to talk more about Left Wing politics and less about feminism People can care about and focus on multiple things at the same time.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/07/26 01:08 AM

9	We need to talk more about Left Wing politics and less about feminism Feminism was always a tool of classism, doesn't mean we cannot nor shouldn't be critical of it. You brought up the Suffragettes (the original feminists) in another comment, ignoring that they were domestic terrorists, and yet they won, not because the people in power agreed but because it benefited them to. The elites will always use and abuse everyone else, and elites have been in control, of the US at least, far longer than many realize, but that doesn't mean focusing solely on classism will f…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/07/26 01:04 AM
6	We need to talk more about Left Wing politics and less about feminism Just because classism is a root cause of systemic sexism, both misandry and misogyny alike, as well as pretty much every other kind of bigotry, doesn't mean we cannot address the ways feminism has been used by the same classist system to harm predominantly men but women as well or talk about men's rights and advocacy generally. We can focus on and talk about multiple issues concurrently, but this space is for men's rights and advocacy, so the only people missing the point is those who want to po…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/07/26 12:34 AM
2	I find it Strange that people still call themselves feminists even though what they mean is egalitarianism This was also the late 90's, a time before feminists tried claiming feminism was for men's rights too.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	04/07/26 11:54 PM
23	I find it Strange that people still call themselves feminists even though what they mean is egalitarianism When I was in middle school, my social studies teacher has everyone do overnight research before his first lesson on the Suffragettes on the definitions of views for equality. When we came in, he asked who labels themselves a feminist, and all the girls raised their hands. Then he asked who labels themselves an egalitarian, and all the boys plus myself (a still closeted trans guy) rose our hands. After the lesson ended, he called me to the desk and asked me why I didn't identify as a feminist. I…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	03/07/26 07:49 AM
7	I find it Strange that people still call themselves feminists even though what they mean is egalitarianism It doesn't help that all forms of communism are easily exploitable for people who crave power. However, feminism has always been problematic and that predates neoliberalism. For instance, adding "trans exclusionary" to radical feminist has just been a clear sign that they are intentionally transphobic because radical feminism is built upon transphobia. And since radical feminism is the cornerstone for present day feminist rhetoric, including the neoliberalism kind, anything based on that is inhe…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	03/07/26 07:35 AM
29	Yes I'm a misandrist, what about it? It always was though. The original feminists, also called Suffragettes, were notoriously racist.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	01/07/26 09:48 PM
14	I think a lot of people on this sub needs to learn to separate the feminist theory, from the people who talk about it. Otherwise we risk to fall back into sexism. The problem here is that the Duluth model was a "dogshit idea", it's that feminism still stands by it because it hurts men and ignores how it also had hurt women, particularly queer women.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	01/07/26 09:01 PM
-4	Is red pill manosphere stuff or feminism more of a threat to male advocacy? By using the analogy from the films, they make the source material relevant when pointing out that some views of the red pill are just hypocritical as feminism. You also are the one who brought up the movie in the first place and have twice related this directly to it, so how is it not relevant?	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	01/07/26 12:57 AM
-4	Is red pill manosphere stuff or feminism more of a threat to male advocacy? I never said they did nor that they are the same thing, I simply pointed out the analogy from the Matrix films is a trans allegory to point out how "truth" is not universal. Because feminists would argue their views is the truth, while some red pillers support other kinds of bigotry, but both are often sexist towards men and women alike, albeit in different ways. [Edited for formatting]	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	01/07/26 12:46 AM
-6	Is red pill manosphere stuff or feminism more of a threat to male advocacy? The creators, both trans women, have confirmed this.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	01/07/26 12:28 AM
-5	Is red pill manosphere stuff or feminism more of a threat to male advocacy? The whole red vs blue pill analogy is a trans allegory.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	01/07/26 12:13 AM
16	Is red pill manosphere stuff or feminism more of a threat to male advocacy? Radical feminism. It includes views such as political lesbianism (similar to MGTOW) and most femcels are radfems. The crux of saying this is that original radfem theory is what modern day feminism is built on, which is why it's easier for feminists to "red pill" themselves than it is for men.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	30/06/26 10:20 PM
17	Is red pill manosphere stuff or feminism more of a threat to male advocacy? If you don't even know the basic history of feminism, you aren't ready to have this conversation you came here to have.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	30/06/26 10:16 PM
14	Time for some positivity: what aspects of male culture/being male are you proud of? Which is interesting since the term "woke" was created to talk about the struggles of black people in the US.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/06/26 09:20 AM
4	Has feminism always been like this + any notable misandrist feminist names? Ok, but even framing patriarchy as a classist tool then ignores how much control elite women have and continue to have. They were exceptions to the rules of even the tier below them, they were harsher on the poor than men, and they created the rules that ultimately restricted women's freedoms feminists talk about, with elite men simply doing as ordered. The only way patriarchy is a "fundamental source of social oppression" is because the ones the oppressed saw imposing the oppression were men, b…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/06/26 12:19 AM
8	Has feminism always been like this + any notable misandrist feminist names? Even transfeminism, which is transandrophobic in the same ways that feminism is misandric, doesn't include class struggles except as caused by transmisogyny. While this trans specific feminism cherrypicks from the 60's and 70's feminist rhetoric, it still fails to be critical of itself, namely regarding trans men and masculine nonbinary people.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	28/06/26 12:12 AM
3	Has feminism always been like this + any notable misandrist feminist names? There was also Valerie Solanas and her SCUM Manifesto as well as multiple books by the vocal misandrist (but also avid misogynist) Andrea Dworkin, a butch feminist who claimed to be a lesbian but was married to a cishet man.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	27/06/26 11:25 PM
3	Has feminism always been like this + any notable misandrist feminist names? She conceived of patriarchy as one tool that the economic and political elite used to oppress the majority, not an institution that all men participated in and benefited from. That's just sounds like classism with extra steps. The men being exploited were not the real oppressors and she saw that clearly. If they aren't the oppressors, then how is patriarchy real? Honestly, she just described classism, and part of classist oppression is distracting the poor from recognizing that is the ultimate o…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	27/06/26 11:20 PM
9	Mocking portrayal of boys and men in Voicemails for Isabelle When Japan does it, especially in anime, it's so viewers only care about the main guy and often only seen in certain genres. It was found if the other guys weren't framed as bad, then they often would have more fans than the MC. In Western media, it's genuine misandry to blame.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	26/06/26 10:31 PM
6	Mocking portrayal of boys and men in Voicemails for Isabelle I'm not sure what the U stands for, do you mean TERFs?	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	26/06/26 10:15 PM
49	Mocking portrayal of boys and men in Voicemails for Isabelle I've noticed these kinds of misandric tropes are common with romcoms for all men except the romantic lead. He gets to be the good guy, or his actions are framed as good even if they aren't.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	26/06/26 09:47 PM
-5	Male Spaces Yes, Manosphere No! I think we're at a point where the toxic influencers like Andrew Tate took the term red-pill from that community and tainted it by using it the way he does. Which is, to me, hilarious given it's a trans allegory and he hates us trans people, but that's a separate issues altogether.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	22/06/26 11:04 PM
22	Male Spaces Yes, Manosphere No! They think claiming they care about men is enough, but they don't realize they're no longer fighting for women's liberation, they are fighting for women's supremacy. Not to say there aren't some women's issues to still fight for in some places and in different ways, but they don't understand that focusing their attention on just women has always come at the expense of others, particularly men. For instance, the fight for abortion rights is about bodily autonomy, but men don't nor has ever had th…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	22/06/26 11:00 PM

3	"If more women were in power, there would be no war." What bothers me most about this is that historically when a ruler is a woman, she often committed more violence than men, and I don't think it can always be claimed to have anything to do with "she had to prove to men she could rule" when men were also constantly trying to overthrow one another. That's just been the nature of being a ruler, someone else wanted the crown, and gender had nothing to do with it.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	17/06/26 07:10 AM
7	Is the fact that the accusations against Graham Platner hardly dented the momentum of his Senate campaign a sign of progress? Felt more like a regional phenomenon than a sign of overall progress.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	15/06/26 11:55 PM
1	‘It’s not about heroes and villains’: the triumphant return of long-lost indie I Shot Andy Warhol Probably because they will say trans women when they mean trans women but most of the time they say trans people when they mean trans men. Consider the ability to transition for trans kids, all of that is aimed at trans boys, not trans girls. The talk about surgery on minors is because trans boys are the only ones getting surgeries that young, and it's just top surgery. But that's enough because it's creating "damaged girls" in their view. Just like how hormone blockers don't allow trans boys' b…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	13/06/26 07:27 PM
5	‘It’s not about heroes and villains’: the triumphant return of long-lost indie I Shot Andy Warhol Transandrophobia is the trans masc version of transmisogyny, and any other definition or use is itself transandrophobic. The second definition you gave isn't a definition at all but a biased interpretation of transandrophobia that itself is transandrophobic, often coming from those who have a history of transandrophobia. I'm pretty sure you will argue with anything I say for how radical feminism is bio essentialist, but I will say that the beliefs of TERFs is based on the original writings of ra…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	13/06/26 03:20 AM
5	‘It’s not about heroes and villains’: the triumphant return of long-lost indie I Shot Andy Warhol I answered your question already: trandfeminism is based on radical feminism, the latter which is bio essentialist. And in my experience, transandrophobia is only considered contradictory to those who have a history of silencing and erasing trans men and masculine people, which is transandrophobia, so take that how you will.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	13/06/26 02:12 AM
5	‘It’s not about heroes and villains’: the triumphant return of long-lost indie I Shot Andy Warhol Trying to twist transphobia into pro trans rhetoric is impossible, especially when trans feminist rhetoric is still inherently bio essentialist like the radical feminism it's based upon and often transandrophobic as well.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	13/06/26 01:41 AM
11	‘It’s not about heroes and villains’: the triumphant return of long-lost indie I Shot Andy Warhol Just because some have been trans inclusive in their views doesn't change that radical feminist ideology (and thus all feminist ideology) is inherently transphobic and misandric.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	12/06/26 03:58 PM
21	‘It’s not about heroes and villains’: the triumphant return of long-lost indie I Shot Andy Warhol We call them TERFs because they explicitly make their targets trans people instead of only men, but all radical feminism is just pure sexism at the end of the day. They are equally as misogynistic as they are misandric.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	12/06/26 03:15 PM
29	‘It’s not about heroes and villains’: the triumphant return of long-lost indie I Shot Andy Warhol her work can be seen as a prelude to TERF ideology Correction, all radical feminism is the backbone of TERF ideology, that was when and where it was born because radical feminismis the backbone of feminist academia, where TERF ideology originated, and excerpts of her manifesto, as well as other misandric works like that of Andrea Dworkin, still being taught in women's studies classes to this day.

17	The Supreme Court officially rejected NCFM's petition to review the Selective service law. Pretty sure it's more about making sure the elites have meat sacks to fight for them and protect them if there aren't enough.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	08/06/26 07:03 PM

-1	What does that even mean? Never said it wasn't, said the exact opposite. Explaining broader context of certain aspects doesn't take away from my point, especially when the queer community is very misandric.	/r/EverydayMisandry	05/06/26 06:00 PM
11	Is any of the below movies contain any level of Misandry? I'm going to see Backrooms tomorrow but based on the existing lore, I don't know how there would be any misandry in it.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/06/26 03:25 PM
-8	What does that even mean? People of color is a term used around the world and predates the founding of the US. Also, I'm certain the context of the image in question is US based issue, making race very relevant. And that you claim that racism isn't an issue (also evidenced by my being downvoted) doesn't bode well for this subreddit, considering that a lot of misandry around the world is done on an axis of racism towards non-white men. But sure, it's just pigmentation, so why do non-white men get treated worse than white …	/r/EverydayMisandry	05/06/26 03:16 PM

-22	What does that even mean? This is very likely explicitly being said from the POV of queer POC, who's experiences are never going to be like cishet white men, the people they get compared to, including POC women. Not to say that cishet white men are exempt from the issues men overall face, simply that comparing their issues to queer POC isn't equivalent.	/r/EverydayMisandry	04/06/26 11:33 PM
2	Banned from abusive relationship group I don't remember if she it was disclosed that she was diagnosed with BPD, but one of the multiple psych experts (I forget if it was one of hers, his, or neutral) did say she showed signs of NPD. However, AH has substance abuse issues and it's common that people with those issues to abuse their partners. Hell, she used JD's substance abuse issues to abuse him!	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	03/06/26 03:31 AM
1	Reddit is a hate site. Let's report it as such. Those kinds of laws have been and are predicted to continue being implemented in other countries than the US, so they make a valid point. And Reddit has to either follow those laws regardless of being from the US or no longer be available in those countries.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	03/06/26 03:05 AM
5	[Repost] Why does ‘male gaze’ have ‘male’ in it? If that were a valid argument for this term, then no one, especially feminists, would argue against the opposite with "the female gaze" because topless muscled men sells as much as sexily clad women does.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	02/06/26 09:11 PM

8	Why do you think gay men have never been seen or accepted as "men" by other men? Sounds more like you don't understand the long history of homophobia around the world and how it has effected society at large, or how fighting homophobia is very definitely part of left wing politics and male advocacy. It isn't "reactionary", "divisive", "doomerism", nor feeding into "black pill" to give a name to an issue or talk about homophobia, which largely effects men more than anyone else.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	25/05/26 09:20 PM
6	Why do you think gay men have never been seen or accepted as "men" by other men? No, it's a learned problem like any other form of bigotry. But what you're talking about is not something people just do for no reason, it's taught to them by the ingrained homophobia in society.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	25/05/26 09:08 PM
12	Why do you think gay men have never been seen or accepted as "men" by other men? The answer is homophobia, because homosexuality for men was illegal in most of the world (still is in some places) but rarely illegal for women. (Not to say women weren't still penalized in a way by the law and society, it just was most common for the upper class than others.) The legal status of gay men is also why lesbians took control of the queer rights movement.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	25/05/26 09:00 PM
13	Why do you think gay men have never been seen or accepted as "men" by other men? I have seen many cishet women bitch about gay men being as if not more misogynistic than cishet men. I don't agree with that claim, I'm simply repeating much of what I've seen and heard.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	25/05/26 08:59 PM
7	I have noticed that the phrase "not all men" is mostly used by Feminists to say "not all men... but ALWAYS a man/mostly men" It's well documented by historians, and mentioned by prominent Nazis during their trials.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	23/05/26 03:03 PM

35	I have noticed that the phrase "not all men" is mostly used by Feminists to say "not all men... but ALWAYS a man/mostly men" I have, usually just claiming that sexism and racism cannot be compared, yet they would be the first to do the same for their narrative.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	23/05/26 10:33 AM
15	I have noticed that the phrase "not all men" is mostly used by Feminists to say "not all men... but ALWAYS a man/mostly men" To be fair, the way the Nazis planned things like this was based on the way the US already was doing those same things, namely the way southerns spoke of slaves before, during, and after the Civil War.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	23/05/26 10:31 AM

3	American LWMAs, what is your dream SCOTUS precedent? It's a default procedure on infant males unless the parents have a religious reason not to. And for those with a non religious reason, they have to often fight to get that respected.

1	Feminists downplay bigotry towards men who practice Witchcraft, and made a female exclusive issue for decades. I've read that in the UK, it was 95% women accused and in the US, it was something like 85% women accused. Yes, men were still accused, but most of those likely were neurodivergent, whereas the reason women were targeted for a myriad of reasons.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	11/05/26 05:17 AM
6	Debunking a graph on lesbian DV I found on twitter I highly doubt heterosexual women aren't abused by other women (ex girlfriends/wives) that cannot be considered domestic violence since they wouldn't be in that situation were it not for being with the same man as the other women. I'm aware it wouldn't be IPV type DV, but domestic violence can be applied to family members, so why not exes going after someone's new partner?	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	11/05/26 12:40 AM
12	What actually is the patriarchy? As said elsewhere in this post by u/AbysmalDescent: There is no "patriarchy". What feminists call patriarchy is literally just women imposing gender roles onto men to act like their fathers. And, if women are the ones imposing those roles, then it's not imposed onto women by force either. It's an oxymoron. So no, women don't participate because if they did, then it isn't based on men being the oppressors. What is really oppressing us all is classism and capitalism.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	09/05/26 03:04 AM
28	The Prada Double Standard: How Hollywood’s Elite Weaponise Misandry Under the Guise of "Empowerment" Streep justifies her sexism against men by saying that she was mirroring her experiences with men throughout her career in Hollywood.

37	Many "intersectional feminists" have a very shallow understanding of intersectionality For trans men, they try to claim that any sexism we face is somehow misogyny, ignoring that unless we don't pass, we face misandry just like any cis man, and when we don't pass, what we're really facing is transandrophobia.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	02/05/26 09:59 AM

As a trans man, I do find it hard to be in any part of the queer community because I'm either expected to make myself smaller somehow (transandrophobia) and if I'm not clocked, meant to apologize for being a man (misandry). Although if I am clocked, the apologizing for being a man becomes transandrophobia because then it's apologizing not just for being a man, but for abandoning womanhood and femininity.

6	How do you other queer LWMA's connect with other LGBTQ people without risking exposure to missndry? At this point, misandry from trans women is internalized transphobia and/or transandrophobia. They are projecting their dysphoria onto cis and/or trans men, the latter often because they cannot fathom why we "want" to be men, but don't anyone dare claim they "want" to be women.

2	Is gender largely a social construct or are there biological components to it? My point is that equality, however well intentioned to not leave anyone behind, has always left people behind. That is even a tangential purpose of this entire subreddit, to discuss the ways correcting equality efforts for women has left men behind. It's a reason many disability advocates prefer a focus on equity over equality, not just for the disabled but for everyone, because it focuses on needs over the majority and minority dynamic equality works off.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	15/04/26 01:24 PM

3	Misandry and anti-masculinity in queer and trans spaces I didn't ask if you're a trans man to discount your view, I asked because I want cis people to understand trans people and trans women to understand trans men. Yeah, that would be a good way to explain it, and others would call it gender essentialism.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	02/01/26 10:49 AM
7	The "If men got pregnant, you could get an abortion at an ATM" phrase The real problem with the phrase is that it doesn't take into account the social dynamics to men being the child bearers instead of women, that is something we see a glimpse of in the final Series 2 episode of Red Dwarf, titled 'Parallel Universe', where the crew meet their genderbent selves, and everything is opposite. The creators/writers had the right idea in that if men where the child bearers, then society would treat men the way women are treated and women would be in men's shoes. Go ahead…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	01/01/26 07:51 AM
2	Misandry and anti-masculinity in queer and trans spaces Are you a trans man? I don't want to assume but it is relevant here. As a trans man who passes as a cis man, I find that unless you understand transphobia, especially being the victim of it, that it is hard to explain how it changes the way misandry effects us. There's an implicit shame to transandrophobia, as if saying "if you didn't choose to be awful men, this wouldn't be happening" to our face when they find out we're trans men. I'm not sure how else to explain it.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	31/12/25 04:00 PM
17	Misandry and anti-masculinity in queer and trans spaces Thankfully, more and more of those talking about transandrophobia are beginning to come around to misandry towards cis men, and I'm glad to see it. And I don't blame you for being angry and butter at a world that had treated you unfairly for something you had no control over, as if you chose that.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	30/12/25 09:15 AM
12	Misandry and anti-masculinity in queer and trans spaces My reason for pointing this out is because saying something like "that's just misandry with extra syllables/steps" is just like the broader queer community saying trans men cannot have a word like transandrophobia to discuss our experience with transphobic misandry. We deserve to discuss our specific issues how we choose to. And I agree, now we just need to get to the point where people understand that misandry is as systemic as they see misogyny.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	30/12/25 09:07 AM
30	Misandry and anti-masculinity in queer and trans spaces Transandrophobia is the most common term used because when transmiandry gets used, the conversation devolves into petty arguments about whether misandry is real or not and the issues facing trans men get ignored yet again. And it's not that these kinds of people think trans men only face transphobia, they insist that any sexism we face is exclusively misogyny, then ignore us when we say that saying that is misgendering. Thankfully, heavily queer online spaces are beginning to push back on this, …	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	30/12/25 09:00 AM

But expanding the meaning of a word isn't always as nefarious as it feels like you're implying.

6	When talking about circumcision, focus on the physical damage and loss of nerve endings. Honestly, no, us trans men can never truly understand the physical damage because we'll never be put in that same situation. Even FGM isn't a perfect 1:1 to MGM, in the case of a trans man who faced that. Just because we develop a micro penis and it has foreskin doesn't mean anything because we're adults who will never be forced into undergoing the same horrific procedure cis guys and trans women went through.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	09/11/25 04:05 PM

While the physical damage is absolutely an important thing to bring up, the reason consent (and bodily autonomy) are and should be brought forward first is because it's an understandable concept.

For all the men in this post who have said if they were to wake up with a female body, they wouldn't have a problem, I can tell you for certain that that is likely untrue. If you personally have never questioned your maleness, if you've always known you are a man in part because of that maleness, then waking up as female would give you gender dysphoria. Your maleness and manhood would clash in that scenario, just like trans men experience from our manhood clashing with our femaleness. Another wa…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	12/07/25 11:56 PM

What most don't realize is that men falsely listed have to get the permission of the mother to get a DNA test to disprove her claim and most states have a time limit of 30 days from the birth, while DNA tests often take at least that long to get done and courts rarely give the men injunctions on this matte…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	05/07/25 05:14 AM

They don't, but the point is that they say they do and yet they actively have worked to stop efforts by men and women alike to help other men. But if we're judging feminists by the worst of feminists [...] I don't think you understand how and why people judge feminists based on the worst of them. It's because the worst of them created the basis and at the forefront of the movement. Also, the amount of time and effort by men (often politicians and…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	02/07/25 04:47 AM

1	Have you heard of Postgenderism? From my main response to this post: [...] postgenderism is a radical feminist invention, from those later identified as trans exclusionary, who created the theory as a means of female supremacy.

3	feminists can't claim feminism is about equality and not also advocate for equality for men. Everything you hear from TERFs is based on the foundations of feminist academia, and feminists have long treated gay men more harshly under the guise that they should be allies to their “feminine” nature, IE being gay.

I’d agree, except a good chunk of tumblr has been waking up and actually talking about misandry, treating it as something real, and some even recognizing that feminism historically is to blame for not just most of the misandry in present day Western society but also responsible for a lot of the misogyny in present day Western society. The people on Reddit who might’ve used tumblr back in the day are likely those that left during the Porn Ban.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	03/03/25 06:34 AM

8	The Patriarchy is the left’s “DEI”/“woke” I’ve always felt that it makes more sense to point out “patriarchal values” instead of just mention “the patriarchy” because the latter is more accurate than the former in most cases where the former is brought up.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	07/02/25 11:24 PM

9	But..but MGM is not worse than FGM: Too many people against FGM only know of one kind, which happens at the onset of puberty, and while all genital mutilation is abhorrent, too many people are willfully ignorant to how much more damaging and traumatic MGM is due to happening in infancy. And even as infant FGM is invasive compared to infant MGM, it still should never be done.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	15/01/25 11:55 AM
1	But..but MGM is not worse than FGM: Due to the purpose of both being essentially the same, plus infant FMG is non invasive while infant MGM is so invasive it leads to lifelong trauma, complications, or death, I don’t think this isn’t an accurate comparison.

With boys, it usually gets said to them when they are expressing emotions, implying that grown up don’t do that, but if it is said during specific circumstances, it’s simply conditioning the child on how adults are expected to act or not act, not that they, a child, are necessarily expected to be grown up.

However, why would those specifically be tightened tightly after she opened them when she had them behind all the stuff he does use since they are foods he doesn’t eat?

For example, women have historically been given lighter sentences under the faulty assumption that women are not equal to men, even if their crimes are the same or worse, but women also have historically been jailed or institutionalise also for committing no real crime at all, like speaking out against her abusive husband or wanting a divorce.

You realise that is the same argument made against abortion rights for women? Legitimately, this isn't a discussion on taking away women's right to an abortion nor should it be, but allowing men something similar that they don't really have in any country doesn't have to come at the cost of blaming men while allowing women to do whatever they like or vice versa.	/r/MensRights	18/12/18 04:36 AM

No one is saying that. The point, however, is that men should not be forced to support a child they don't want anything to do with if a woman decide to carry the child to term.

I have been saying this for YEARS and one major change for women is that they would have to name the father before birth, which would actually help the process on paperwork for newborns as well. Of course there should also be a process that if the mother claims a man is the father and he contests that claim instead sighing his rights away, she is legally bound to do a paternity test so some guy isn't randomly signing rights away to a child that isn't his.

1	'Minions' Creator on why all Minions are male: “Seeing how dumb and stupid they often are, I just couldn’t imagine Minions being girls". All I get from this is that women can't be stupid, but I know enough stupid women to prove to me that's just a dumb idea.	/r/MensRights	19/07/15 05:28 AM
3	'Minions' Creator on why all Minions are male: “Seeing how dumb and stupid they often are, I just couldn’t imagine Minions being girls". They're immortal, so reproduction is meaningless.	/r/MensRights	19/07/15 05:26 AM
2	Is anybody else tired of seeing these posts everywhere? I'm tired of hearing people rant and rave about something they don't really care about unless it fits their agenda. It's honestly ridiculous the way people, especially women these days, think they have the right to talk about things that don't currently or will never effect them directly in a way that says "My opinion on this matters absolutely" instead of the fact that it's just another random opinion like so many others.	/r/MensRights	14/07/15 06:58 AM
6	My son was murdered by his girlfriend - I don't want other men to suffer in silence because of abuse At this point, I'd rather hate the society that says women aren't able to be held responsible for their actions, like this clear case of abuse that lead to murder, just as any man would be. Women are supposed to be equal but we all know here that they are treated like kittens compared to the dogs.	/r/MensRights	13/07/15 06:22 PM
1	Two people are on a date and walking down the street. Person A, feeling romantically and sexually attracted, timidly reaches out to hold B’s hand and feels a thrill as their hands touch. Person B does nothing, but six months later files a criminal complaint. A is guilty of ‘Criminal Sexual Contact’. Did people stop learning how to read body language and use that to speak to one another? Cause that's what it seems like with legislation like this comes up and I cannot help but feel like women have decided to stop caring about body language more than men.	/r/MensRights	08/07/15 01:44 PM
2	The radical feminists have a new sub they use to attack men's safety I took a look and someone made a post asking about feminism, in a very "I'm being open minded and want your opinions" sort of way, and on of the top comments talked about intersectional feminism and "anti feminists just don't understand it" but what got me was how even these kind of simple comments in any feminist subreddit or forum online, including tumblr, are always about theory over practice unless it's against white people. Intersectional feminism is about black women only, it doesn't care …	/r/MensRights	28/06/15 05:25 PM
2	"According to the show's producer, women were particularly quick to stand up for others." I have to ask, what is the current state of gender issues in Germany? That answer pretty much determines if that mention was based on observation or because women there honestly have as privileged as women in the US or UK.	/r/MensRights	26/06/15 05:20 AM
1	Women Who Are Against Feminism Are Now Turning To "Meninism" Stupidity like this is expected of click bait like Buzzfeed.	/r/MensRights	26/06/15 05:14 AM
5	"It Didn't Mean Anything!" I'm a new red piller but I completely agree. I see women do this with men so much more than I see men do it to women (but there are those who do, not saying they don't exist) and yet women scream and shout that it's only the menz! Of course no one hates women more than women, but women hate men more. At least, that's what I've found.	/r/TheRedPill	25/06/15 02:43 AM
1	If Feminists changed their name to Equalists I would join instantly. After Legend of Korra I just couldn't get behind that. I'll stick with egalitarian.	/r/MensRights	12/06/15 04:34 PM
5	Circumcision is a feminist issue ... Well, it is now anyways. No, it's a human rights issue because the UN said so and I'm sticking with that.	/r/MensRights	12/06/15 04:33 PM
2	Circumcision is a feminist issue ... Well, it is now anyways. He looks like a cross dresser or drag queen, so unless you're a feminist who views that as "transmisogyny", it's safe to say they might be willing to entertain the idea if they don't outright disagree.	/r/MensRights	12/06/15 04:32 PM
