Yes. Title IX protects every student from sexual harassment or gender-based harassment in schools. It also applies to school employees, such as teachers. What is “harassment”?

Sure, if we said all men were victims, or that abused men are victims and nothing else, that would be a problem. But all we want is for men to be treated fairly.

3	Not sure if this has been posted here before, but this is straight from Merriam-Webster.... Dictionaries in English tend to lean more towards descriptivism than prescriptivism. It's the only reason they allow "figuratively" as a definition of "literally".

While I don't entirely agree with the decision, if they wanted to be biased, they'd have just said "prejudice or discrimination against women".	/r/MensRights	10/09/14 03:20 AM

There are some insanely selfish people out there, and that includes people who don't care about their children. There are people who have children to validate their choices in life.

Studies of contemporary hunter-gatherers show that their strong sense of moral community is maintained by autonomous individuals who constantly resist any form of personal domination. In fact, many hunter-gatherers are so egalitarian and communistic that even a non-Marxist anthropologist like Christopher Boehm argues that hunter-gatherer societies - the first human societies - must have originated in uprisings against dominant males.

As far as I can tell, Elliot Rodger never mentioned the MRM in his videos or his manifesto, and I have seen no evidence he was even aware the MRM existed.

I totally see where she's coming from with this. I am, however, disappointed that she didn't take the opportunity to talk about male rape. When a man gets raped in a place like Uganda, he faces much of the same ostracization. If he's raped by a woman, he's viewed as either weak because he couldn't resist her, or gay because he didn't want it. In many countries, if a man is raped by another man, he can be convic…	/r/MensRights	12/06/14 03:28 AM

Women can be masculine, feminine, or in-between.

1	"After Elliot Rodger Revolution" - Disturbing chart created by Rodger before killings So let me see if I understand this correctly. Before the sexual revolution, men and women were paired off. Every man had a woman, every woman had a man. After the sexual revolution, a handful of men had multiple women, the rest did not. Most women also had a man or two, though some women didn't. The "solution" here is to kill all women and some men, at which point ... profit? I mean, it certainly sounds like something a lunatic would believe.	/r/MensRights	25/05/14 05:36 PM

1	Women more likely to receive help to die than men--(Controversial Topic) Men are, however, far more likely to die from non-assisted suicide than women are. The title kinda implies that women get "preferential" treatment, which I doubt is the case (the article doesn't seem to imply it). My guess: Just like women are more likely to go for poison and men are more likely to go for gunshots, this is just a difference in chosen method of suicide.	/r/MensRights	24/02/14 02:59 AM

The nature vs nurture argument is centuries if not millennia old, it won't be solved in a day. Whatever the case, it would seem (at least to me) that women tend to be drawn towards certain things while men tend to be drawn to others. I cannot stress that one word enough: tend.

The relevant passage: As with all other Crime Index offenses, complaints of forcible rape made to law enforcement agencies are sometimes found to be false or baseless.

Eight percent of forcible rape complaints in 1996 were “unfounded,” while the average for all Index crimes was 2 percent. "Unfounded", to me, makes it sound like these are the cases which have no evidence one way or the other, or which have an equal chance of being true or false. In other words, it makes it sound like a synonym for "lacking investigative merit". It reminds me of the CDC classifying forced envelopment as "sexual assault" rather than "rape". They make it so that the numbers are accurate for the definitions they use, even when the definitions they use are clearly wrong.	/r/MensRights	15/12/13 10:11 PM

That woman got paid to be in a hamburger advertisement, and now she's being used to sell feminism, without her permission.

2	Feminism and Conscription: The reasoning Personally, I'd go with choice #4 with choice #3 being used in times of emergency (for instance, if our nation --- the US in my case, but really any nation --- was invaded). The problem is, most feminists will simply claim that it's a non-issue ... implicitly supporting #1, at least in times of emergency.

1	More characterisation of masculinity as violence towards women - Women and the Internet No, but whenever feminists talk about cultural problems of womanhood --- a higher incidence of eating disorders, a lower desire to enter STEM fields, etc. --- they inevitably blame "the patriarchy", which is just a way of blaming men without saying you're blaming men.

Nowhere in its etymology is there a bias towards men, even if there was in its practice.
