I'm a huge fan. Doesn't get talked about a lot but in the US you can generally get the hospital to facilitate sample collection. You're also not required to sign the birth certificate at the hospital and can choose to legally acknowledge your fatherhood after confirming paternity. We've also come a long with with safer paternity and dna testing during pregnancy. Unless you aren't told she's pregnant, there's little reason in 2025 to not have your fatherhood confirmed before the kid is born at le…

In many countries it has to do with traditional gender roles and job opportunities available to women. In many places a man at 65 may still be able to find work that pays well enough to not need the state pension but some women may not. In some cases it's also due to less attachment of women in the work force and many women having had to leave the workforce to care for kids. The long and short is that many countries have cultures that view gender roles a certain way.

Dating apps aren't rigged against men, the average ones just give more selection power to women. I can't remember the name but at one point there was a dating app geared towards high income men where the women had to meet certain requirements to join. It was like a match maker but online. In that case the men had the majority of power because they had to do the choosing and the women had to be selected. On apps like tinder problem is that because women are bombarded with tons of male suitors for…

Ah the game. I think this largely only applies to men looking for a certain lifestyle and willing to exhaust themselves to get it. There were several former PUA who became what women wanted, had lots of success with women and ultimately unalived themselves.

Autism is a very wide spectrum. If you're seeing a therapist then have you spoken to them about your concerns? There's a chance that they can help you take small steps towards being more social, understanding what you want from a partner, better understanding social signals...and potentially most importantly setting boundaries. Now, most of the time I don’t even talk to my friends because I can’t think of anything to say. Sometimes life is less about having things to say and more about being in …

He's potentially a young man asking for advice or at least someone to listen. Part of men's rights has to include us being willing to have some level of fraternity beyond hoping for things like more equitable legislation. FWIW taking this sort of response, especially for a younger person often leads to forms of extremism.

I think it's closer to 60% on average with the number being higher for college educated women. Look if we're honest about it there are pros but also risks to marriage. There have also been massive cultural shifts and marital expectations for some people haven't caught up. There's also tons of people who get married and start families without actually planning or considering what the after will look like. The reality is that most people under 50 who are married in the US are likely in dual income…

if it is.. waaaaaay more weight is given to the woman's side of "Equal split" You guys constantly say this but it's not the woman's side, it's the lower earner's side. When the woman is the higher earner, we see lower earning men, especially those who left the workforce at the direction of their spouse, also receiving an equal share. The man is often the one pressured into leaving the family home, losing half his assets which includes things like 401K, savings and any monetary assets he had BEFO…

What does this remotely have to do with men's rights? Bill Maher has a very long career as a comedian and tv host. Maybe go back and see what he and his writers said about the last men who lost the presidency. News flash, most of them didn't take any accountability for their loss either. One of them is still peddling conspiracy theories about having the election stolen from him.

No one made a claim attempting to state what marriage 'is about.' Marriage, in the west, in practice, IS effectively as described. The OP gave their views on why marriage is advantageous to women and disadvantageous to men. Really? I mean, you fully admit that you have to go to a completely different culture to find examples of men being the source of the dead bedroom. LOL.

Out of curiosity how old are you? Assets in a marriage have generally been seen as shared familiar assets with an order of succession. I know that some people have gotten very transactional with relationships but a traditional marriage was not and is not about a gold digger finding a target. Generally it's two people sharing values and working towards a common goal even if they meet for the first time at the ceremony. Yes lots of men and women end up with dead bedrooms.

I've never had sex with a partner who told me something was painful and I just kept going unless it was something we'd talked about earlier. Obviously they're young but it's pretty easy to recognize verbal complaints of pain as a sign to stop

Yes, that's rape. The moment someone tells you to stop a sex act you stop because they've withdrawn any consent you had. I've had a good amount of sex and no it's not hard to stop when someone says hey that hurts stop or don't do that. Unless I'm misunderstanding it sounds like she clearly indicated that he needed to stop and he didn't. I'm going to share a story that a lady friend shared with me once.

yeah but how is what i don't understand, like what benefit does lying about this give you? and there other things that benefit you, not just lying about rape. There's no single answer because women are individual people. You can look up cases and often when caught the women or men will admit why they lied. In some cases it's regrets and in others it's as simple as revenge for a perceived wrong. They benefit by watching the consequences impact the person they think wronged them.

Women do go to jail for non-payment. Women also lose professional licenses. The problem is that in the majority of cases women are the primary care giver as well as the lower earner. Those extra overnights often results in them being the one to receive money. To dispel your beliefs I'll offer a doctor I knew who got pregnant by her HS sweetheart after she became a doctor. When things fell apart she actually ended up paying him 250/month in child support despite him only having every other weeken…

First off MFs need to stop signing things they don't understand. Unless you're married, paternity will not be assumed if you don't sign. Second, paternity fraud should be a civil matter and men who are victims should be allowed to seek financial restitution. Lastly, we need to rethink child support. We need legislation that ensures parents are the first line of financial responsibility while not making it profitable to have kids by certain men. Putting caps on child support, having default 50/50…

Even when men are able to prove they are paying support for the children of other men, the courts and state agencies often force these non-fathers to continue payments . It's because the alternative is the state taking over the slack. If you really want off then the best things you can do is find the real father and get a good lawyer. Aside from the situation where you're married and your wife gets pregnant by another man, most states don't assume paternity unless you sign. Married or single, yo…

As to your other point, what major tech doesn't have a majority of men, much less doesn't have a self-sustaining minority? There's still women alive today who wouldn't have been allowed to hold certain tech jobs that are available today so I'm not sure what your point is here. There's obviously physical professions that IMO women can't do or would rarely if ever volunteer for.

I met a woman in West Virginia once who was a miner in the 70s. Last year I was speaking with a guy about trades and his daughter is training to be a welder and the union she wants to join has to do with oil rigs. Let's not pretend like women can't work a mine or on an oil rig around other women. I stand by what I said which is that if all of one gender went bye bye either way there'd be a technological dark age

While they're the minority, there are women who work in mines and on oil rigs so I'm not sure what that has to do with anything. All men or all women there's a good chance that we'd see a technological dark age.

I could be behind on the science but I think IVF still needs a woman. So if a group of men had access to sperm and eggs they couldn't produce any children. If a group of women had access to sperm and eggs they could. Either way it's a dumb conversation to have.

Science says they could. If they could freeze enough sperm then reproducing wouldn't be an issue. We have women in most fields that men are in. FWIW I don't think an all male or all female society would thrive or even make it 100 years. The genders do a lot to balance each other out.

Are you kidding me? A prostitute has sex for a living. That means that you're likely not the first guy that day and depending on the price range you play in she's not washing between johns. So at best you're licking the flavor of condoms and at worse you're licking another man's semen.

Younger men are more likely to be undersexed while having been exposed to pornography than older generations. That puts them in a position where in addition to arousal being difficult the parts may have atrophied due to misuse or no use.

I guess it depends on where you live, what time you picked her up and who she lives with. I'm sure in her mind going to a hotel with a stranger was a lot safer than having you in her house even though you picked her up presumably at her house. Personally I think if she'd led with "I don't want anything physical" that would have been worse than the evening playing out like it did.

That's false. The Durham Rescue Mission in Durham NC provides a men's only shelter.

About 10 years ago I dated a young lady who was a social worker in the Baltimore area and she told me they had men's shelters.

You're right, courts are biased against men, especially for certain charges. With respect to shelters, there's a huge reason for that. Most shelters for women are meant to house women and children. While females can be predators to, even many fathers will tell you they'd rather not have their young daughters and sons around strange men. I think the number of mens only shelters depends on where you live. Unfortunately men have always had it harder than women with getting help when hard times happ…

Let me be more clear, DEI as a program that throws away merit to boost numbers from certain groups has largely been disproven. While many companies set diversity targets, those were not quotas. Please see the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Diversity targets are not the same as discrimination.

First, settlements aren't admissions of guilt or wrongdoing, they are two parties reaching a mutual agreement.

If it's related to discrimination then why aren't we seeing tons of lawsuits won? The majority of school teachers are women because men choose not to do that work. Often men in education go into leadership positions for the better pay.

It doesn't prove you were raped anymore than a female examination proves you were raped. The examination can tell if you've ejaculated, it collects things like saliva, hairs, vaginal fluid and other secretions...So just like when females are examined, it provides evidence that you were likely intimate and can provide dna of the person you were intimate with. For situations where a male is raped by another male or is sodomized they can also check that area.

It's funny to say women were referenced in education and employment.

This is a situation where both can be true. Just like with a woman, he has a degree of responsibility for the situation but that doesn't mean he could have consented. So if a married guy gets drunk with his single female co-worker and she has sex with him while he can't move, push her off, consent...then he was raped but also put himself in a situation where he was okay with cheating.

As a male you can use condoms. There's also never really been a push for male birth control although there are options available aside from just condoms.

Marriage is a business contract, where generally speaking, men are unknowing/willfully ignorant of the fact that they're basically signing a piece of paper that says if they divorce, he's giving up half of everything (or more). I'd argue that doesn't apply to all men. Most well off men and women I've met protect their assets in the case of divorce and many will also reevaluate during the marriage based on career progress.

Can't speak for other countries, but in the US it had practical reasons. Common law marriage made it easier for couples to share things like health insurance and also helped with situations where someone died and didn't have a will.

Men will never stop being hateful towards each other until all men enjoy and abundance of women and wealth. Like it or not, as men we are forced to compete with each other for various things. For many men that competition drives them to tear down or try to get into direct conflict with other guys.

The first step is that men have to be kind to each other. Nobody gives a shit about men's rights because many spaces that champion men's rights can be just as toxic as the misandrist spaces. You can check my post history to see me being called names by other men just because I don't tow a certain line or have a different opinion. Men who want to be treated better need to learn to engage with other people in a respectful manner. I remember years ago reading a list of things all boys should master…

How exactly is it stupid? In the event of a conflict a government is going to need people to fight. Should they choose from a pool that's most capable or just from everyone? Should women register? Yes but the lack of that requirement doesn't make registration for a draft any less necessary if you want to ensure continuity of your country in the event of a conflict (obviously this excluded situations like Vietnam where there was no real threat to the US)

Ukraine is an example of when drafting isn't appropriate. Even during the draft large numbers of young men were allowed to not be forced into uniform. How do I know?

Many of them have gone on to immigrate to parts of Western Europe where they are paid more than even before the war.

There's a comedy show called Chickens that speaks to this and was hilarious. FWIW it probably didn't make much sense to conscript women during WW1. That was pretty hands on warfare that I don't think women would have fared well in. Just like with WW2 many women did provide non-military support functions. There's books that talk about the role of women during WW1 and WW2 working at factories and whatnot

I'd argue that the draft exists because men are seen as more valuable than women. If you want to expand your empire or protect your borders, who do you call? You call the men. Even in modern warfare where physical size is arguably less important than logistical support, you still largely rely on men even though women can fly planes, operate tanks, work communications...I've never been to war but a book I read once said that men are capable of surviving war because they have to fight or die.

Female sex toys are often seen as a necessity as many women say most men can't get them there. So they're not meant to replace men as much as they're meant to "help". Sex toys marketed towards straight men are straight up made to replace women.

If no disease is present, then cutting off a portion of a healthy penis does nothing but inflict an injury to the organ. I never said it's for correction, it's for hygiene.

There's no law for or against it, it's a decision up to your parents and will largely be based on family tradition. And no, that's not a fair comparison that you're making.

It does matter how long it's been because the draft as a major inequality is generally brought up by men who are too young to have been drafted.

The goal of each president is to make sure the people they choose align with their ideology. Was it ok when Biden chose judges who aligned with his ideology? But why is that reasonable?

I'm pretty sure you got that backwards. Roe v Wade was never codified because neither party wanted to be the one to end or fully codify abortion.

The answer isn't hard. First we have to stop calculating child support based on income and a generic formula. Child support should come down to nothing more than the needs of the child.

Anecdotally, I've met women who were treated as badly by the court system as men, especially when they were the high earner in the relationship

Honestly I'd be all about more social programs and entitlements if they were more equally available and had certain limitations.

Also be careful who you sleep with, especially if the woman is not your socio-economic equal of you're a relatively high value guy. Like it or not a good man is an average woman's meal ticket.

Currently child support is largely based on two factors: overnights and income. It's a terrible system where if either person is making substantially more they will pay child support even if they have the majority of overnights.

I live in NC and the number of unmarried couples living together was increasing last I checked. There are also more companies now that offer what were once spousal benefits to a partner who lives with you. As far as I know in my state you can't get alimony if you weren't married but there is some other fuckery if you live with a partner.

And there in lies the rub. There is no such thing as equal upbringing because everyone is different.

In theory I agree. For normal working people you'd be right for the most part.

It depends on the woman but in my experience, nice guy is often code for a guy I can control. It's the guy who won't cheat and will feel thankful to be with her because she's the prize not him.

It's rare to see a marriage of equals, especially when it's not arranged. That means one person is marrying up and the other down.

My big takeaway from a lot of this is that the majority of guys need to get off dating apps. Dating apps, give 99% of the power to women. If you do opt to use dating apps then I'd say pay a consultant to help your profile because that's what's attracting women.

One thing I've found as a parent that I took for granted as an adult is that kids often don't know how to respond to their feelings.

Right and on a certain level alimony makes sense, but it should never be permanent or go unchecked.

So at various times in my life it was better to have 2-3 casualish sex partners in order to selfishly be able to have sex everyday of the week and at times more than once a day. Ego has also played a role and I've met women who will say the same. In other words the same way a man may high five over smashing the blonde that all his friends were afraid to talk to women will feel the sa…

The difference though is that men's height is a biological fact, while n-count is a behavioral one. Arguably biology plays a role in some of the large body counts. Yes, we as humans can exercise self control and constrain ourselves to social norms but that doesn't mean there's not a biological imperative to do the opposite. On the height thing, there's tons of factors that go into a person's height. There's a reason that you'll see some families with 6 ft sons and 5 ft 1 daughters and others wit…

If I go home with a strange woman, lay in the bed with her and then wake up with my penis in her mouth then she must stop if asked but the act of sleeping over can be viewed as implied consent for intercourse unless I was under the influence or had previously indicated there was no consent.

Yes there are in all states. I think the big problem is that when child support was conceived they made a lot of bad assumptions and like many laws, there's not much done to keep them up to date. For example, when you have a kid you can scale up your apartment by getting another room. That generally doesn't double your rent but some child support formulas don't take that into account.

Naw son, those jockeys had money and status. I said this elsewhere but often the women who obsess over a man's height aren't the top tier women. Top tier women are pursued by all kinds of men so they choose based on a variety of non-superficial measures.

Just to clarify I mean with respect to what the father is responsible for. In the US if I'm listed as a kid's dad then I have to pay child support for 18+ years depending on the state. Even if found to not be the bio-dad, I'm at the mercy of a judge allowing me to be removed as the father of record. I can also be told to pay for health insurance for the kid or told that I have to cover any out of pocket medical expenses. I've personally known people who pay over 50% of their net income in child …

In the US you don't have to sign anything in the hospital. Many hospitals will also do the dna testing for you after birth. There's not much reason to get it done prior to birth unless you really have doubts or are planning to financially support the woman during pregnancy

I know nothing about family laws in France and Germany but I wonder if they have the same impact as in the US. In the US, we don't have much of a safety net, so you could easily end up paying child support and health insurance for a kid that's not yours and that can cost a lot

It's taboo because every women claims to not be that type and in many situations if you aren't the dad, the woman is screwed financially. I'd say a huge reason is also the state. The state hates to be the baby daddy and that's why laws are written to ensure there is one on record. Honestly I can see how some women would see it as a lack of trust but to paraphrase my friend's dad the only grandkids he knows are really his are the ones that came out of his daughters.

She likely knew you had no ill intentions. I know someone whose sister is autistic and has a bad habit of getting really close when she talks to people. If she gets really excited she's even been known to put her hand on someone's leg or tell a joke and put her arm around someone. Both sisters are in their 20s and the person I know has had to explain to numerous male friends that her sister's not hitting on them

Honestly there's still some "traditional" relationships in the US but with the cost of things and lack of safety net you almost have to have two people working. Even most young people choose relationships because they can't afford to live alone. FWIW most of the people I've known with a traditional wife live a very humble life or are completely miserable. The miserable ones have usually been that way because the wife wanted a life they couldn't afford on one income and refused to work.

I learned a long time ago that if I put my dick in a woman she might get pregnant. We all know that pregnancy is a potential consequence of sex. So no matter how you cut it and even if she pops up 11 months later with a baby in hand, you're still responsible for your part.

Before everyone gets all up in arms this reeks of absolute bullshit. Parental alienation is taken pretty seriously and with his income he can afford the kind of lawyer that gets the case heard quickly. Also in many of the cases where the dad is an athlete and the moms not exactly their financial equal, it often comes out that the dad doesn't want the kid full time or can't really accommodate having the kid full time. That said in 2022 there's no reason that the law hasn't progressed to the point…

It depends on their definition of success. In some counties in my state, when there's the accusation of DV, the accused will have a mandatory stay in the local jail before they can post bail. The arrest itself can also lead to losing your job and can have a negative impact if you're having custody issues. Would she succeed with respect to the accused being convicted?

Despite comprising only 13% of the population, black people commit 52% of the total number of murders. Those crimes are generally clustered in certain areas. If you don't live in those areas then your chances of being murdered are significantly less. If you are a white person living in an all white community you are significantly more likely to be killed by a white person than black person.

I think the problem is that too many women have a messed up fairy tell vision of what romance actually is. It doesn't help that as a guy the line is in sand on a windy hill. By that I mean that if she likes you then it's okay to push through rejection but if she doesn't like you then pushing through can easily mean a restraining order or being crucified on social media.

This is correct. Give your friend your keys, tell her you want to meet somewhere public to give her money for future rent (to lure her out of the house), and have your friend get all your shit while she’s out. NAL but this seems like pretty bad advice and will likely result in her calling the cops to report being robbed.

Keep in mind that in the eyes of the law marriage isn't about love, a ring or saying "I do".

The optimist in me hopes that moreso than sexism or discrimination against same sex couples this is a hat tip to the possibility that many men are raising a kid that's not theirs. FWIW as a US citizen I'd swallow a bit of sexism to get more than 1200 + 500 in a pandemic

I've seen lots of cases where a parent ages well but the kid doesn't and vice versa. A lot goes into how we age beyond just genetics. One woman I know is in her 40s and her mom has always looked better than she does. The mom just takes better care of herself and actually gives a fork. The daughter got married and pregnant young then never really recovered.

Not everyone sees combat. And given the wars of recent decades, none of their actions likely made the US any safer. Hell I'd argue that good teachers putting kids on the right path makes our country far safer than a soldier fighting Islamic extremists or holding territory for a foreign government

He got hurt before leaving boot camp and over 20 years later still calls himself a proud marine and hates anyone asking for a handout as he gets a disability check that has allowed him to never work a day in his adult life.

It's ironic because much of the budget indirectly goes to improving the lives of former service members. The US pays a ton each year to private contractors, many of whom are former military.

By harsh penalties I don't necessarily mean putting them on the register or prison time. I mean things like no access to cellphones for X years, community service, possible fines, perhaps banning them from social media platforms for X years...The aforementioned is for most cases. When it's done as an act of revenge porn or some kid transmitting images of another without consent then I think they should feel the full weight of the law and possibly so should their parents.
/r/MensRights02/10/20 02:42 PM

AFAIK those cases where someone peed in public and get on the registry are rare and generally because the person peed in certain places. Those places are generally places where kids are around or kids frequent. With regards to a kid kissing another kid many states have Romeo and Juliet laws to reduce the impact of that. That said, I agree with the harsh penalties for kids who transmit nudes of themselves. That behavior needs strong consequences so hopefully kids stop doing it.

I used to go to strip clubs too much and there was a stripper I was really into at this smaller club. It was one of those hood clubs where overtime you can get to know a chick because during the week and especially before 11 things were pretty dead. Well I remember asking this stripper out to dinner and apparently she wasn't happy with the place I named. I tried to impress her by being willing to take her to one of the better steakhouses in town but she had never heard of it so thought it was a …

In other cases I've met people who have had several run ins with the police and keep a law firm on retainer. I also once knew a guy who had several domestic issues following his divorce (think things like his ex trying to alienate him from the kids).

Depends on the person. If you ever have time, look into how community housing or "projects" started in the US. There was a time when getting accepted was seen as an achievement and you worked hard to keep your home and community looking good. I've seen people run free shit into the ground because they feel like they'll be given another. I've also seen people take care of free stuff out of appreciation and the knowledge that they might not get another.

I think doing that is significantly easier when you have things in common, the same goals or complementary goals. If you're from a good family or have significant means then you'll be spoiled for choice when it comes to arranged marriages.

In the US most jurisdictions will calculate what you pay on your earning potential. So unless you have no work history and no degrees or certifications, your plan won't work. They'll just calculate your income based on your last job and say find a way. One of the worst judgements I've ever heard was a doctor who lost his license because he missed too many payments. This cost him his job and the judge told him he'd still be paying a support amount based on his prevoius 6 figure income

NAL. The US system is similar to a degree. A big problem is state's rights. Individual states have a lot of caveats (for example, IIRC there's no federal law for default 50/50 but some states have begun doing it).

I think a lot of people want quick and easy money too without working.

I'm not big on slavery but IMO if you falsely accuse someone of rape then a period of indentured servitude should follow. Not only because it's arguably more punitive than prison but because the person you accused might be in a really bad situation where having a servant could help.

I disagree with this. Sugar babies fuck the daddy who is willing to pay as simple as that based on the dynamic. Same for gold diggers, they ultimately choose the guy they're willing to fuck. With respect to guys marrying who they want to, the guy might choose who he proposes to but she ultimately has to say yes. So to a large degree guys marry who they can and not necessarily who they want. ​ I'd say that for marriage and sex there's a lot of settling going on for both participants.

If you haven't been drinking then absolutely. I was speaking about the situation where you've had a few drinks or especially if you've had more than a few. Believe it or not the margin of error on the handhelds can be pretty high and some unrelated stuff can cause higher readings than expected. So yes if I had a few shots and a beer in the past couple of hours I'll probably decline the breathalyzer. As a personal anecdote I had a friend who had one of the devices in his car.

I think it's largely guys applying a double standard where one may not exist. Male and female fashion is different. Leggings are a part of women's fashion and can be a part of a business appropriate outfit (as long as the women wears an appropriate top and the leggings are not see through or ripped). Contrary to what some guys think, leggings are not workout gear like yoga pants and I'm guessing that in those offices where yoga pants are allowed, the men could wear workout attire as well.

Wait...what kind of engineer are you? I'd say what she's wearing is the female equivalent of male engineers who wear oversized khakis and shirts so large they can actually fold the bottom over their waist when it's tucked in, which is very common from what I've seen of business casual engineering organizations.

Out of curiosity is there a reason for that policy? My office is pretty casual for the floors that don't get client visits and earlier this year I saw a chick wearing leggings. My first though was "wow, that looks like what I dressed my 4 year old daughter in this morning". I'm assuming it has to do with potential sexual harassment since if the woman doesn't wear an appropriate top you can likely see somethings that aren't workplace appropriate.

Yoga pants aren't the same as leggings. It would be ridiculous for a woman to walk in wearing yoga pants and expect it to be okay outside of a workplace that allows casual clothes. I mean she might as well truck in with a sports bra too. Leggings on the other hand are pretty much tights and unless you're a young girl (young being middle school or below) generally should be worn with a dress or shirt that falls below your butt

Again I'm no lawyer and I've had a couple tell me that if you think you're on the border don't take the breath test. The breathalyzer has a margin of error and if you blow .08 or over they're probably not going to let you blow again. I hope it never comes to this but I'd rather lose my license for the chance of not getting a DUI than to get charged with one and likely lose my license anyway.

I'm pretty sure my state is .08. Delaying isn't going to save you if you're at .1 or above but if you are slightly above .08 then it might. AFAIK there's no real gray area, if you blow .08 or above you're charged anything less and you're free to go. The officer isn't going to tell you that you blew .085 so just wait and try again, they're going to cuff you and take you in. In my state a DUI/DWI can easily cost you $5,000+ to mount a decent defense on your first charge. Stalling a bit to save tha…

I think it's the fact that for most police officers most of the job is boredom so when some calls go out they all show up hoping for some action.

She did have an attitude but they were pretty dickish from the start and from the body cam footage seemed to take joy in humiliating her.

We have breath testing but you generally have the right to refuse it. There are tons of reasons to not want the breath test, including being at the mercy of the machine working or the cop doing the right thing. I was once told by a lawyer that unless you've had 0 drinks, don't take the breath test. Apparently breath and blood results are hard to challenge in court.

FWIW, in my state we have programs geared towards female and minority students but they're not really allowed to discriminate. The closest they can generally get away with is picking one kid over another based on socio-economics which just happen to generally correlate strongly with race.

Depends on where you live. I'm in the US and we still have tons of public schools with very discriminatory programs. I remember reading about a school a couple of years ago where the schools population was mostly black but the AP and other advanced programs had very low numbers of black students. It turned out that most of the black kids who expressed and interest were pretty much shut down. I graduated high school around 2000 and still remember the majority of girls being ushered away from coll…

Be fair though, how many guys would you trust to carry your 240 lb carcass out of a burning building? I live in a southern state and I've seen some first responders who I feel like I might end up having to save if they come to get me.

It's really sad how often situations like this happen. What's more sad is the number of people who are simple oblivious to this reality.

Both the man and woman want the baby, he must pay child support. FTFY They both pay child support based on the child's actual financial needs. Other than that this is really reasonable. I think the double standard currently exists because I as a guy can say whatever the fuck I want and then to a degree walk away scott free if I don't sign the birth certificate and she can't leverage the legal system. There's also a lot of strange technicalities regarding paternity that can happen that are hard t…

Don't most women have this power in the modern workplace?

I'd first ask if that was acceptable to you and do you feel that you would be in your child's life enough, seeing them once every five to 7 days It's absolutely not. My point was not to condone the current system but to say that as parents we have to do the best with what we can no matter how unfair the system is towards us. Look at crime stats and what the absent father has created An absent father is only one of the contributing factors. I was born in the early 80s and in middle and high schoo…

Actually no, and there is a mountain of data demonstrating so. At the risk of sounding combative I'd like to see that mountain of evidence. Funny thing about human behavioral studies is that you often find conflicting results because people rarely fit a mold. Anecdotally I can tell you that some parents who don't have majority time share make the most of the time they have and go on to have very good relationships with their kids. I've also met non majority timeshare parents who spend what littl…

Six to 8 days a month is not fatherhood, It depends. There's a lot you can do with your kid in that 6-8 days a month especially when those days are on weekends when you're not working. Personally I favor default 50/50 and reevaluating the way child support is calculated, but having less days is no excuse for being a shitty parent. I think the fatherhood rights movement has a lot to do with the fact that laws haven't kept up with the times. The original child support laws were written when most w…

Gotcha. I read the article (not the 2004 paper) and it doesn't seem to indicate that students are being awarded or deducted SAT points. It reads a though they took a comprehensive score and tried to put it in terms that everyone can understand by using SAT scores. IIRC Harvard and other Ivy league schools create a score based on the notion of a comprehensive student and allow some leeway to create diversity, legacy preference...

It probably varies from state to state but I've never heard of programs in my state getting cancelled under those circumstances, they generally just start admitting more privileged kids and then some legislator bitches about "diversity" and the next year they increase recruitment efforts at some schools. That he as a white male student applied and received recommendations from teachers tells me that it's not just a program for minorities and girls or the teachers didn't know much about it.

While those terms often mean race and/or gender, they can also be about economics. If you were excited about the program I still encourage you to reach out to them about a wait list or what other opportunities may be available.

Are you sure it says they only accept minorities? Or does it say that preference will be given to minority applicants and applicants from group traditionally underrepresented in STEM fields? There's a huge difference. Having worked with similar programs I'll let you in on a few things: 1. Programs designed for kids who are from underrepresented groups often cover basics. So if say you've been programming since you were 10, currently take all the CS classes your school offers, do python in your s…

Is there actual proof that the last part is true? FWIW one reason a lot of asian kids catch a penalty is that their applications are often pretty cookie cutter.

In regards to opportunity in the US for education and access to the banking system, some groups of Asians receive as much and in some cases more positive biasing than whites. I once overheard a conversation between two managers for a well known chip manufacturer talking about hiring interns. One said his preference was for Chinese/Japanese/Korean kids then whites and everyone else was the bottom of the barrel. A couple of weeks later (it was a popular lunch spot) I saw the same manager offer a j…

Likely no. Generally these programs don't discriminate against white males but give preference to others types of students. In other words, if a program has 50 slots and there are only 10 applicants who are not white males, they don't admit the 10 and then cancel the other 40 slots. That said, there are some programs that are only for girls, kids from certain areas (generally a polite way of saying for blacks or hispanic kids only)...but those will generally make an exception for certain kids wh…

I haven't read a trial transcript but it seems the only physical evidence was saliva on her chest that belong to him and IIRC some bruising. He admitted to kissing her there and making out with her. I didn't read anything indicating how any bruises on her were definitively tied to her but maybe it wasn't included in the articles. The video doesn't show him forcing her and I haven't seen it but I imagine that had she been so drunk he was carrying her or dragging her it would have been reported so…

We weren’t there for the trial, I trust the jury weighed the evidence carefully before coming to verdict. That's not how jury's work, most jurors enter that box with personal biases as well as a limited understand of the technical definition of the law. Like you said we weren't there, but based on the evidence mentioned consistently in various articles it's hard to say that beyond a reasonable doubt he raped her by force. Personally, I wish each juror had to write a statement explaining how they…

He's a 20ish year old black kid accused of raping an underage white chick in a red state. Oh and he can't afford a decent lawyer to speak for him. It's sad, but not all that uncommon nor an indication of guilt.

True, but there are ways to tell if a woman has had intercourse within a certain time period. I haven't seen that mentioned in any of the news articles I've seen. If she was raped there would have been evidence of penetration. Of course, that doesn't prove it was him but...

This is going to sound terrible, but more so than who the woman is, who the guys is really decides who easily this bullshit can happen. I found out that the kid had a public defender. A public defender for a charge that if he was found guilty apparently in that state had minimum sentencing guidelines of over a decade. I'm not a cop or a lawyer, but I'm pretty sure that if his family was rich it would have been hard for this to have happened. For one, the jury composition seemed off. In addition,…
