I would think the previous commenter means that there must be some way to figure out when things are justified and when they are not. Almost like a system... One that would investigate and enforce laws... We could call it 'the legal system' and it would be a place where we can figure it out whose guilty before sending the vigilantes after them.

How does one sound anything over a text based medium? Wouldn't it be more more accurate to say that, based on your interpretation of their words, you're assuming that they're distressed? I'm not sure why you would do that as they're nothing in the context of their comment that implies distress. Unless you're just trolling.

Haha, what is your problem? You just said a whole bunch of nothing. You attack me instead of the argument. I didn't attack you, make any statements about you, or anything. It's pretty established that from the time they are little girls, women are far less likely to be disciplined for hitting men. Women interact with men physically far more the other way around. It is less destructive (of course) but that isn't the idea being discussed. If you have never experienced that then congratulations. I …

Well there is a larger percentage of the female population that believes hitting men is not violence. So you don't have to be dating outside of the average woman to experience women not keeping their hands to themselves.

What would you rather: have experienced your foreskin being removed as a baby by a medical practitioner under local anaesthesic, or be a teenage girl who one day is suddenly forcibly held down in a mud hut by your family while a "witch doctor" removes your entire clitoris (which has twice as many nerve endings as the tip of a penis) The clitoris and tip of the penis have the same amount of nerve endings as far as anything I have read shows.

It is fairly eye opening for me as well concerning the issues on a more global scale. I do appreciate it. I will say that I can understand why you hold a lot of the views you hold. Even as a feminist who believes in gender equality, your views have just as much bias as I'm sure you believe mine do. That is because we are human and it is a very tall order to ask women to understand life as a man the same way it's hard to ask a man to understand life as a woman. So things like: A possible explanat…

You've never heard the a man get told that if he didn't want a kid then he shouldn't have had sex? Really? That's crazy cause it's fairly common, especially when things like "condom tampering, sperm-jacking, lying about birth control, etc are brought up." I have literally had multiple people say to me both on Reddit and in real life when talking about the ways men end up with children they didn't consent to.
/r/MensRights24/03/21 06:29 PM

Yeah, but that's the same slippery slope argument that used around the "don't want a kid, don't have sex" which doesn't account for the myriad of ways that people are taken advantage of that results in sex happening. There are some many ways for a person to utilize this concept to punish someone. Like putting an ex's dick pics that were sent consensually as part of the relationship into the blockchain and ransoming them back to him as one last f--- you because reasons.

- Women also make up the large majority of college and high school graduates. Which can be traced back to changes in schooling to favor girl's education (which is a good thing) however it went past that and the structural changes ended up going so far as to disadvantage boys.

Well I'm not an Men's Rights Activist, so I don't have as many global figures as you do. I automatically have a bit of apprehension with your statement that you have no idea what gender equality looks like because that implies you have no idea when it has gone far enough, that makes sense. What stops it from going too far when I have yet to speak with a feminist that can tell me where the "line in the sand" resides. A mindset like that, speaking generally, has just as much potential to result in…

I care about gender equality, that's all. Then why be a feminist as opposed to an egalitarian? If you only care about gender equality, then why tie yourself to a movement that was started for women, by women, to benefit women? Only thing I can interpret from your comment (and please correct me if I'm wrong) is that either you think women are not equal to (or superior to) men under the law or you believe the current dictionary definition of feminism which is still not congruent with the words and…

He said it doesn't matter. He's on the birth cert. If it's PROVEN not to be his, he is still financially responsible no matter what. Not sure how familiar you are with Family Law (at least in the US) but this is the key point in what he said. It has nothing to do with some engrained sense of responsibility.

Each and every woman cares more about their own gender than anything else??? Every single one??? This is where you introduced the strawman.

Never fight an enemy in their backyard if you can help. Emotional response is the backyard of people like OP's mother. She will obliterate the OP if he says this because he's only 15 and (based on the fact that he's posting here) hasn't yet developed the stoicism, judgement, and depth of logic needed to weather the storm that would be caused if he said the above to his mother.

You realize your argument became a strawman fallacy the moment you began using hyperbolic and exaggerated version of the original argument, right? You're not arguing against what was presented in words or context. You're arguing the most extreme version you can think of as if that's what was said.

Back your claim with something that isn't anecdotal. The majority of men treat women well. There are men who do not the same way there are still that do not treat women well. Thing is, it's been scientifically proven that both men and women have a favorable bias towards women. That doesn't mean bad people don't do bad things. It means that, on the whole, men treat women pretty well. You can Google "ingroup and outgroup bias women" (since links are not allowed.) You can Google "crime statistics b…

I agree with everything here but black on black crime being an issue because black on black crime (as it's labeled and publicized) doesn't exist. It is, and has always been, a concept that supports a larger idea being pushed that black people are more aggressive, violent, and criminal. In reality, the majority of all crime is done intraracially. Yet we don't call out white on white crime. We just talk about how a robbery happened, or a serial killer is on the loose.

Okay saying they both did wrong is acceptable. They are not both at fault. Only one person in this scenario decided to endanger the life of another person.

When he did the take down he didn't have control of her left hand (you can see it against the wall before the takedown.

Yet he was still classy enough to pay $120 because they were splitting the bill (even though it was almost $100 more than what he spent.) Then they had the nerve to ask him to pay another $120 for the birthday girl's portion.

I would actually say they are much closer to a female version of TheRedPill. TRP is pretty much exactly what you described (from the little of it I've read) just with the genders reversed. FDS also comments on psychology, creating attraction, and vetting partners based on value. They both report to the sub realizations and accomplishments. They're basically two sides of the same coin it's just that TRP was quarantined in the Reddit cleanup and FDS wasn't it seems.

If only the context my comment was that there are plenty of crimes committed that people aren't arrested for. So there is no way to know the actual stats on who commits crimes at a higher rate besides drawing on arrest data which is not reliable. For example, men are far more likely to be arrested and charged in mutual domestic give situations even if their actions are defensive and less damaging. Another example, would be the prevalent societal stigma around men reporting their victimization at…

Men are charged with more crimes, but there is no statistic for who commits crimes because how do you track that? If a woman punchs a man in a car and no one reports it then a crime was committed but not charged. So it doesn't impact the statistic. Just like if a white guy sells weed on campus, a crime is committed but if he doesn't get charged then he isn't part of the statistics.

Yeah you do man. You just have to be paying attention. The problem is that until there is concrete evidence, people are more likely to believe the woman.

That is not a requirement that is just the foundational calculation that the ridiculous support system is based on. Basically a place to live with a room for the parents, room for the child, estimated costs for food, clothing, etc and then calculated against the actual incomes of the parents.

Wish it didn't. Pedophiles are irredeemable and abhorrent in my opinion. Not every person having sex with a minor is necessarily a pedophile though. While going after someone under the age of majority is undeniably wrong, it isn't wrong on the same level as going after a child that hasn't even hit puberty.

didn't want them to vote because "they'll just vote for people that help women and not men". There was also the concern of being given the right to vote without the responsibility that came with it at the time. Most women didn't want the vote because they didn't want to be responsible for bucket Bridges, drafts, etc. Men agreed with the sentiment that, if they don't want to take on the same responsibilities required of men to have universal suffrage then why should they be given it.

No, I was pointing out the inconsistencies in an article you linked me to. They are commenting on the results of their analysis, not that the analysis was preformed with an implicit bias. But even if they proceeded with that assumption from the onset, it wouldn't cancel the results if their methodology wasn't biased.

Their conclusions based on their data is not consistent though. They start out saying sexual assault is a gendered crime (immediate bias) then give the reasoning of that statement based on reported instances of sexual assault. Then, very next paragraph, they go on to say that a much large portion of males than females do not report their sexual assaults due to fear of being believed or shamed.

Can't wait till this whole 'must be an incel' trend ends. It's not intelligent and it is only used to shut people down. It is the new, more effective version of calling someone a misogynist. The dude said something edgy which has yet to be proven false. Doesn't mean he doesn't get laid nor does it mean he hated women. Stop thought policing. Either respond back with someone logical and rational or don't respond at all. This calling people an incel shit is just immature.

While it's kind of a gray area, an ex is someone you had an intimate relationship with and The cause for the rage was over something interpersonal, so it isn't too much of a stretch to say DV. No different than if an anytime boyfriend finds his victim after a year, breaks into her house, and beats her senseless. He's likely going to get a DV charge on top of the b&e, assault, battery, stalking, etc.

I know they are like children. I agree they are like children and 25 year olds shouldn't fuck them. I am saying that a 25 year old fucking a 17 year old does not make them a pedophile. The definition of pedophile is not 'a person that likes to fuck children or people who may have the mental capacity of children.' The definition of a pedophile is 'someone that is attracted to/has sex with prepubescent children'. I don't understand the confusion behind this.

That's hyperbolic to the point of being a strawman argument.

Spouses having access to one another's phones is not inherently abusive as you seem to be implying. If it is acceptable to that couple to go on one another's phones at any given time then that is not abusive or controlling.

To answer your question in a more direct manner, if both of you agreed to open access to the devices in order to build trust then it isn't abuse.

Are they not important enough to help, or will they always be thought of as the perpetrator (even if the accusation is only "provoking")? It is direc…

What really amazes me is that they never once refer to the mother as a criminal. Nor do they refer to what she did as illegal or malicious.

I can't agree more and people really do not realize how deeply ingrained this particular gender bias is. The thought that insertion is a worse crime than being forced to penetrate stems from the same basic thought process that leads to a male going to jail and woman being a victim when both are drunk and have sex. Neither could consent, yet the male is the culprit. It's the same basic process that assumes males are always the aggressors in domestic violence and the women are only defending thems…

Except in this instance where you have young man, at least in the US, paying child support to their rapists. Young men taking their own lives because of the trauma. Young men becoming abusers themselves because our society doesn't feel they need as much protection, help, and counseling as a female rape victim.

I wouldn't go so far as to say well, however this is an extremely large step in the right direction. The judge still decided not to charge with grooming, she was not charged at all with rape, and the judge's own statement can be interpreted as: had the genders been reversed it would have counted as an "aggravating factor." Once again though, I am not knocking the verdict because it is a very positive step. It takes time to change deeply ingrained misconceptions and inequities, and this is a step…

Which is fine, yet that doesn't address everything outside of abortion that is still not equal, fair, or ethically/morally correct. The post that is being referenced in this thread asked about abortion and being absolved of paternal rights/fiscal responsibility. It was not solely about making a contract to force an abortion. I also question why you brought up parentage, children, and equal rights have it has nothing to do with it.

I have witnessed the system and experienced it first hand. I can say that being a single parent is hard, however it is not so hard that one person taking on the financial hardships of both the child and non-custodial parent is a fair exchange. That is what child support ends up being since it is based on income. While I understand that you were speaking somewhat generally, you still leave out a lot of caveats for your argument. Like the fact that in 96% of cases the female wins custody which mak…

Except there are not equal parental rights, nor are their equal parental responsibilities. One parent ends up having no rights, and another parent ends up with more responsibility in direct relation to their income. So the more money a non-custodial parent makes, the more money they pay out. Put another way: the more money a non-custodial parent makes translates to less responsibility for the custodial parent. Even the fact that joint custody is not the default custody stance (which was suggeste…

Speaking of objectively, as /u/EricAllonde is, abortion is actually far more minor than having an appendectomy. I understand your point that the emotional ramifications of abortion can be impactful, however that does fall under "life is hard sometimes."

Only because you haven't put him there. Just because your ex hasn't done what he is supposed to do, does not mean the law is not in favor of women. If his support requirement is higher, then take your butt to court and file a show cause. You have the power to do that, like every other woman. In most cases, you have the power to do it free of charge (income dependent.) The only way he is legitimately paying you 200-400 a year is if you make exponentially more money than he does.

Basically this. The longer we as a society continue to not only support, but make it easy, for women to have children as single mothers then there is nothing stopping women from doing so. What reason do women have to make responsible choices if they know the state will just take money from men in order to support women's choices. Just like the man chose to lay down and have sex, so did the woman. Except that is where the choice ends for men, while women get to continue making the choices that wi…

Well then the answer is yes, since there is no "consent" for the arrangement to begin with. It is mandated by law that child support can/will happen. The only person with any real "consent" about the situation is the one requesting the support.

No they aren't, and I challenge you to pull a direct quote saying that men should be able to force women to have abortions. The only thing being posited here is that women, with their ~30 birth control options and full bodily autonomy coupled with a far stronger ability to say no (when a woman says no it's rape, when a man says no he's just trying to get attention), take responsibility for their choices. Only thing on this thread so far is for women to take equal responsibility for the fact that…

The only reason your opinion isn't popular is because you are basically saying that the lesser of the evils is to single out one gender and punish them for a choice that both genders engaged in. Why is punishing men the lesser of these evils? Why aren't we punishing the party being the most irresponsible? Think about it.

Except that not every male is the same and these types of sweeping generalizations are the reason that men (young and old) have a hard time reporting rape, molestation, sexual assault, domestic violence, etc. There is a kid that is saying he wasn't super excited about it, that he felt he had no choice in the matter because she was his teacher.

It's not legal if the parents aren't ok with it. See that's the thing about arguing AoC vs age of adulthood. AoC is all well and good as long as the parents are cool with it, or never find out. However parents can press charges in every state that I know of (i could be wrong and some states might not do this) if their kid is under the age of 18. Even if a man "shouldn't" have to have his life demolished, he still does. That is the point people are making. If there is no parity in punishment, the…

Though not a lot of people on this thread are phrasing it well, I don't think it's about the pedophilia. I think it's more about the lack of parity in punishment when female teachers do the same things as male teachers. That is the issue here. It isn't about the fact that they were legal or not.

It's amazing how they become "17, not 6" when it comes to male children being taken advantage of by someone almost twice their age.

You're automatically assuming she was defending herself. She could have been the aggressor, she could have been the bystander, she could have been fighting the man's girlfriend.
