The book sounds good. As far as it applies to learning how to pick up women, it will work for some and not others. People have potential for talent in some areas, and in other areas they will always struggle. Not that someone can't become proficient in picking up women if they practice and study, but they might not ever bring it to a high art. From being a teacher, I've noticed that people who are naturally talented in some particular area are able to internalize what they learn. If they're not …

I would like to see a study that shows that people who dress like gangsters are no more likely to carry drugs or weapons, because I doubt that that's true. I'm aware that it's also a fashion look for some fine young people, but the look was modeled after the street gang look. "Oh, I'm dressing like a gangster, I'm so oppressed because police are more suspicious of me!" If someone doesn't want to be mistaken for a gang member, they could try not dressing like one. It doesn't surprise me that a bl…

So you say. Police are profiling people they think are likely to be carrying drugs or weapons. They want to actually find something when they frisk. As I said, I think it's less likely a well-to-do looking black man will be targeted-- not impossible.

For spousal abuse, you'll get arguments that women who are abusers are just defending themselves from their violent husbands/boyfriends. So make sure the studies you use were designed to take this into account. Also, back things up with mention that lesbian relationships have highest rates of abuse.

None, of course. The entire notion of privilege is something I reject, anyway. I'm more comforable with the idea of being "advantaged" or "disadvantaged". This is specific to the circumstances of the individual. We can all agree that someone raised in a poor and broken or chaotic home in the inner city or by meth addicts out in the country is disadvantaged. Disadavantaged is a concept back from the time before people went crazy. Anyway, my position is that if anyone claims I have a male privileg…

This isn't a men's rights issue. The justification being used here to protest the code is feminism.Admittedly, the short hair requirement does go overboard and was asking to be disputed, since it goes beyond what the student does during school hours. Dress codes should be sensible but high school kids will use the rhetoric of feminism to insist girls should be able to wear yoga shorts or a thong to class. At some point, the adults need the authority to tell them they don't get to wear whatever t…

From dating girls when I was much younger (gay now), I do recall that they all preferred guys to be very forward and would get frustrated when they had to make advances. This is not to say it is "unnatural" for a guy to by shy or hesitant. But I think it's true most women are much more excited by an aggressive/assertive man.

Late response, but yes, I do expect women to act somewhat stupid and for men to have to fix things, so to speak. It's not what I wish to be, but it's what seems to be happening. If that's collectivist, then so be it. Perhaps women will surprise me. I hope they do. But so far it's been, "We're strong grrrls and can do everything the men can do. " Followed by, "Now, where are all the real men and why aren't they protecting us?"

This is absolutely correct. It is only annoying in that men, even now, risk being vilified as sexist pigs by everyone around them for speaking the truth. And in this environment, men are expected to be defenders? Men in Europe are being labelled as Neo-Nazis for forming vigilante groups that do so much as post flyers. They are getting visits from the police for postings to facebook. Still, it is men's duty to protect our countries and cultural institutions. It doesn't matter that we will be crit…

I agree with you. It is weakness. Or, it was weakness. Now it is just as much inertia and living in this new conceptual framework. Many men (like me) have simply grown up in this and are in (or were in) a fog. When second wave feminism happened men should have laid the law down then. They should have removed all perks like getting married and coming to the rescue of women in any and all manners imaginable. Men tried to accomodate women and were too nice. They were afraid of being labelled sexist…

I have some ambivalence over this as well. Would it be different if we hadn't been told all our lives there is nothing uniquely noble or noble about men? That women simply don't need men? I just don't like the idea of now suddenly being needed as protector when I'm simultaneously needing to be diplomatic on my facebook posts when some stupid feminist bullshit gets posted so I don't appear as sexist.

That's the best goal; it's also very difficult to encourage original thought with kids. They want so very much to please adults and give the "right" answer. Still, I fully agree with the goal.

I've had woman friends and, in retrospect, these were always the kinds of friendships where everything is on their terms. It seemed important to always say the things they wanted to hear. That may have been more from me being kind of a "pleaser"-- not too sure. But I can joke with guy friends and rib them. They'll rib back.

A serious risk of what? If you don't have significant assets before marriage - and let's be clear, the overwhelming majority of men do Not since they get married in their twenties - there's nothing being risked but a broken heart. A serious risk of having his wife file for divorce when she decides she's "unhappy". It's usually the woman that files for divorce; if the woman is college educated, it's the woman that files in 90% of cases. If there was not a risk, smart men wouldn't ask for a prenup…

But it is sufficient to answer the feminist assumption that if women ruled the world there would be less wars. Women rulers would not inherit a world without conflict. There are always competing interests. So there will be wars and if a woman leads the country she'll have to defend the nation's interests. This study shows that that is what happened int he past.

It's really quite funny how shocked some people are when I skewer some anti-male post someone proudly put on facebook. They're really at a loss for what to say, which makes it even easier to win the argument. I do agree Milo Yiannopoulos' persona is a little "me me me" and sometimes frivolous, but he fills a niche.

It's both, and I think it's socioeconomic as well. A very poshly dressed black man walking through NYC is unlikely to be targeted for stop and frisk. That being said, I don't doubt that men are targeted more, and black men even more so.

I don't have a disagreement with this.

It sounds like you did a great job. It is not a bad idea at all to include some of the arguments from the other side. It demonstrates you have considered all the information and are reasonable. Opinion writers almost always do this. If you think the audience needed more entries into the topic, you could consider ways to do that if you ever speak publicly on the topic again. I think people speakers sometimes bring in stories about real people to make it more personal.

That was a dilemma for me for a while, too, and the policies we've had in the US under Obama of meddling in and destabilizing the Arab countries --"spreading Democracy"--and supporting the TPP have made it clear to me that the left is increasingly as supportive of all the things you mentioned, but just with a happy face of diversity.

So, girls and their parents should form a new organization. It is highly inconsiderate (and lazy) to push into an already formed organization and demand that that organization change their purpose because you want something different. Boy Scouts is a space for boys. If they were pushed by people like you to allow girls because you want Eagle Scouts on your resume, then the space that was designed to build male comraderie is no longer a space for boys.
/r/MensRights31/10/15 08:10 PM

I have a problem with it regardless. The Boy Scouts is for boys. Boys need boys' spaces to form close friendships with other boys without girls around--just like men need men's spaces. This would be just the start. Next the pushy feminist moms would want their daughters to join a neighboring all boy troop for some reason or another, like, it's too far of a drive to get the girl to the Unicorns. Next, they would be pushing for Boy Scouts to be a safe space and on and on and on.

I'm a gay man--also MRA--and I support gay marriage. I think you are correct that some--but maybe not most--gays do not want to get married. There was a big debate among gay rights activists whether same sex marriage was a worthy goal. Some gays saw marriage as a carry over from women-are-property days. Some gays don't like the societal expectations of monogamy that come with marriage. But when gay marriage was legalized in Hawaii, many of our friends who weren't already married in another state…

Other posts on Kevin Bruce's twitter feed show a consensus that this advisor is universally rude and unhelpful and that she comes across as hating her job, especially when dealing with students that want special exceptions to rules.

It sounds like she takes requests for exceptions as a challenge to her personal authority, when she could simply be polite and say "th…

Maybe they were trying to discourage her (with the 'no large objects' rule), but didn't want to physically stop her because it would be tacit admission of their guilt regarding Nungesser. Also, the rule was obviously put in place just for her so she could have possibly sued for the university making a rule specific to one person if they had enforced it. But I agree with what you say-- by allowing her to bring the mattress they doubled down on their guilt. This is perhaps a more dramatic sign of …

Is there anything wrong, though, with sexualization of nipples? What I see in that post is more of the same: demonization of male sexuality.

Regarding the second one, a feminist would see that through the lens of the dreaded and always oppressive "male gaze". So, they wouldn't agree that they are out to shame male heterosexuals, but would agree to wanting to deny men the 'power' of the gaze. I think u/horus-ra is correct that it's all about shame and guilt, but it's still good to keep track of how feminists will present it.

I think we need to distinguish between serving gay people and providing a service which involves the business owner having to, essentially, advocate a pro-gay position when they are against it.

Just had to copy/paste this for the WTF appeal: If worship of the phallus is central to phallocratic culture, then gay men, by and large, are more like ardent priests than infidels, and the gay rights movement may be the fundamentalism of the global religion which is Patriarchy. In this matter, the congruence of gay male culture with straight male culture and the chasm between these and women's cultures are great indeed.

Agreed. Feminists have always hated gay men; it goes back at least to their writings in the 60s. Lesbians in general seem to like gay men even less than straight men. I almost always get rel hostile vibes from lesbians I even just met. So part of that animosity is more personal or psychological than it is political. Nevertheless, as a libertarian, there has been no reason for me to necessarily vote Democratic with the feminist block other than that gay marriage is one issue that the Republicans …

My experience has been that when I call bullshit on some woman's nonsense she tells herself, she'll go into a rage cycle and I'll get passive agressive sniping for at least a month after. The only way a gay guy can remain friends with a woman is if he becomes her little accessory and gives her the "you go girl" treatment 24/7, or, at the very least, just squelches himself when she spouts something he disagrees with. I have experienced this alpha affect you're talking about, but only when I'm bei…

Men that wear form fitting shorts are shamed in yoga classes and treated as potential pervs. So, a speedo in a yoga studio is super provocative, but even lycra running shorts or lycra short-shorts would be seen as offensively provocative.

What makes it worse are these repeated memes like the cookie-- just no original thought. The same rude sentiment repeated over and over as if the person saying it was the first to use it ever. Even if I suppoted feminism's goals this tiresome sloganeering and hostility would put me off of it.

No need to use the label. Since feminists are dominating the conversation in the media , people's perceptions of MRA's have been colored. I'm sure millions of people never even heard of MRA until Elliot Rogers, who wasn't even MRA. But that goes to show that the label isn't the strongest part of the movement. So instead, develop your strongest arguments in favor of men, and use those arguments as if you've never even heard of MRAs. "MRA? What's that?"

There are a lot of things I can do just fine, too. But if someone goes out their way to do it for me, then it deserves thanks. The thing with door holding is that it is considered rude to let the door shut just in front of someone who is coming in behind you. Since there is an expectation to either hold the door or pretend you do not see them behind you, the person getting the door held for them should say thank you.

I'm with you. Not saying thank you is extremely rude. You are handling it in a way that is not hostile and giving a gentle reminder that social niceties should be observed.

Of course it's criticised as misogynist. That's a very easy and dishonest way to shut people up that disagree. Tactics like this are really the main reason I am against feminism. It's methods are despicable, even more so than it's goals. I am for logic and reason, not for intimidation tactics.

Yes. Very accepting. You have the right to love who you want and have sex with who you want to. That's why it's men's rights.

When a movement says one thing publicly while saying another privately. you have to look at the aggregrate of all actions and public statements and gripes to see what the movement really stands for. And right now, the "true feminism" is the one that's made up by privileged/spoiled mostly white Western women with chips on their shoulders griping about how men are oppressing them. That IS the movement. It's the Jezebel articles and the #yesallwomen tweets and the bitching about microagressions tha…

1) I view love as a commitment and a choice, not an emotion. I don't question my own choice as one might doubt their feelings. Great response. Men are trained to not lose sight of the mountaintop. If the going gets rough or they see an unpleasant or difficult aspect of the woman they did not realize before, they understand that love is something you do. It involves some forgiveness for imperfections, and as you say, a commitment. Women often just redefine what the mountaintop is to fit whatever …

Well, a woman will treat the gay male friend of "her" man the same way she would treat his female friend: as a threat. She's worried her vagina won't be enough to maintain control or possession of him. A women is definitely not a good friend to a gay man unless the man sucks up to her constantly and never criticizes her. Women can't stand to be given a dose of the truth. They only want to be affirmed and validated, which is why they're constantly talking out of both sides of their mouths to each…

As someone else already said, a pairing of a well-off older gentleman and younger man is not in and of itself blue pill. These arrangements seemed to once be more common among gays. But, as gays have increasingly adapted the conventions of liberal straights (feminist ideals) and adapted the youth-is-beauty ideal of the larger society, these relationships are increasingly looked down on. Not looked down on by all gays, of course, but many. The ideal is to be 20 to 40 somethings, both with a stron…

I'll preface this by saying my perspective is that of a "collapsitarian"-- a gay one, of course! I think it's impossible to predict how things will turn out for gays. But for certain, what would end would be the special and separate-but-equal gay "community", both ostracized by social conservatives and yet increasingly protected by the state and media. The ostracization is already dissolving, anyway. As straights start to give up marriage and gender roles become murky, gays are no longer so uniq…

They feel utterly free. Free from expectations. The pretty girl will have more hope and expectations. The ugly one knows it's for the raw sex and excitement. The rich person wants to leave their job and all social expectations behind. They want the thing that will least remind them of their wife or their job or their pressures. Also, banging an ugly or fat person is freeing in another way in that it can be a way of separating sexuality from social programming about attractiveness. Yeah, most of …

My mom divorced my dad in early 1960's. He was old fashioned and red pill and she wanted to keep her party-girl friends.

It shouldn't be a bad thing. 40 years ago, most elementary school teachers might be women. I recall having male teachers for the last two years of elementary. The problem is that, decades ago, women still realized that boys and girls were different and female teachers weren't trying to erase gender differences. Now, not so much. Everyone is expected to act like a good girl.

It means she disagrees with him so much and that she is so aligned with feminism that she can only conclude that the Pope is not God's representative and that God isn't perfect, so who cares what the Pope or what God says? I don't believe the Pope is infallible either but I'm not Catholic either. It's weird to hear language like this from a Catholic and I can see why the Pope would consider feminists trouble.

what is the idea of womanhood that the pope has? The Pope's quote says nothing about women and how they can live fulfilling lives. He's talking about feminism.

I agree that we should not give his word extra authority just because he's the Pope. Instead, I weigh his words on their own merit.

Are all people's lives, not just women's, made less interesting by seeing everything in life as a struggle against the evil male patriarchy? I agree with the Pope on that one.

Except for that he's not belittling women. He's saying they're every bit as capable of being chauvinistic as men are. He's not dismissing women as skirts. He's saying that a feminist chauvinist is still a chauvinist, with the only distinction being the outward appearance. "Skirt" is a handy way to reference female sex. If he'd said "chauvinism with vaginas", that would have been rude.

The heart of his argument is that Obama understands that the reason we can, in good conscience, single out black men and boys for help is that it helps black women.

I agree completely. One argument I read recently was that colleges should be hearing rape cases because they also handle internally claims of sexual harassment by employees. The idea is that a parallel justice system already exists so why should students be exempt? I can think of one reason right away, and that's that they do a sh*tty job of it. Anyway, I through out that last point because it's likely to be a talking point feminists will be using.

In no particular order: 1) The assumption is that men and boys are expected to suck it up, so beginning a conversation with the premise that men are victims of inequality will strike most people as whiny. It might be a good idea to start the conversation with asking the question, do we expect men to keep quiet and not complain when their interests are compromised? This opens up the conversation and invites people to consider their assumptions. The basic premise that men are expected to be stoic …

There's no clear option. There is. But first, see that there are two problems here. One is that your "best friend" is an ideologue that gets angry when she loses an argument. The other problem is that she's a person that takes private disagreements to Facebook so she can gather a posse and win by shame and intimidation.

I think there would be too much cognitive dissonance for a feminist to be happy in this kind of arrangement. A feminist, working from her political ideals, would be okay with being the primary breadwinner and letting the man stay home and raise kids.

As much they say want flexible gender roles, they revile a man that is submissive. Their male feminist white knights? Total…

The flaw is that the owners and editors and employed writers of tabloids and celebrity magazines aren't part of some plot to degrade women. They write what the readers relate to. Since it's mostly women that follow celebrity news, the flaw in Hadley's argument is that she flat out ignores that most female readers of celebrity gossip probably believe that males get better as they age while women lose their desirability as marriage material.
