7	This is an unacceptable way of treating your son thank you for sharing....	/r/MensRights	30/11/10 07:05 AM
-3	My first time in/MensRights: Observations. I expect you're also for a mirror right, since we're ignoring biological and sociological realities, where there woman is able to call the man a "slut" and disavow maternity because he was sleeping around, and any number of females may be the real mother, potentially ruining his social standing or future possibility of marriage? Or how about a mirror right that makes a woman's career earning potential as great as a man's, thus making it practical for a male to raise a child while working part-ti…	/r/MensRights	01/10/10 03:54 AM
-1	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] Did it make you feel better to call me a redneck transphobic fuck so you could avoid answering my argument? Your grip on what's real is astonishing. You can spout trash one minute, then play the wounded bunny the next. I think I will go more with "it makes me feel frustrated to ready self-entitled ignorance online" -- but yeah, you're right. Normal rules shouldn't apply to you. You're delicate flower.	/r/MensRights	17/08/10 10:22 AM
-1	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] I'm sorry pumpkin... Wait didn't you call me a redneck transgender-hater? But you're right, the internets should be nicer to you, snowflake.	/r/MensRights	17/08/10 07:05 AM
-1	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] I feel sorry for your daughter if you tell her she can't like pink because you presume the only way for her to like it is because your family bought her too many dresses -- not because she might just like pink. My daughter wears dresses or trousers according to what she feels like, and she regularly does both. I haven't had a problem with friends or family buying excessively girlish or boyish gifts.	/r/MensRights	16/08/10 08:53 PM
1	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] If you only purchased pink and girly things, that's your mistake. One I never made. The idea that in-utero language has any appreciable affect on a brain not yet capable of controlling half of it's own bodily functions is moronic.	/r/MensRights	16/08/10 08:37 AM
1	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] Interesting what you imagine me to be when you don't bother reading my words and instead invent a preconception of my person to bypass my argument. Thankfully, I don't care what you invent about me for your personal usage. And more generously, I don't care who you are beyond being logically inconsistent and intellectually lacking. I just called you stupid, the only quality of relevance in this forum.	/r/MensRights	16/08/10 07:47 AM
1	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] That's of course nothing what I was saying. I think you have a severe reading comprehension problem. Socializing all boys to like knitting is coercion. Letting boys be as they are, as genetics predispose them, knitting or not, is freedom. You're being orwellian and nonsensical. No one is arguing in genetic determinism, just statistical likelihood. Let kids be as they like. Making all boys knit is just a bad as making all girl knit -- they're both coercion. If it happens that most boys like socce…	/r/MensRights	16/08/10 07:41 AM
0	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] Just read a touch of your post history, and you made a comment on a transgendered article. You're telling me a boy can be born thinking he's physically a girl -- that's genetic. But it's inconceivable that a boy can be born preferring soccer to knitting -- that's socialized? Idiotic. You'd think someone born with the hots for his own gender would know what it means to be let at peace to be what you are without someone trying to "re-educate" you into something you're not.	/r/MensRights	16/08/10 06:01 AM
0	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] All I need is one boy, whom in the absence of society reverts to "boyish" activities, to show that making him (along with all boys in your thought experiment) knit is not "teaching", but in fact coercion. That boy is me growing up in a secluded compound in the desert in Saudi Arabia, mostly on my own, with an absentee father, and a mother who very clearly prefer I learn to knit. I go further, and assert without proof, but instead hard-fought experience and wisdom gained having children and socia…	/r/MensRights	16/08/10 05:37 AM
–	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] That's nonsense. Clearly you've never had to raise many children. You may create a society that teachs boys they must "love" knitting, and you may even get a majority of boys to think they love it. But take society away, lord of the flies style if you must, and you get boys playing ball and catching bugs, not knitting. So knitting was coercive, and not genuinely "loved", and your manufactured thought experiment society is just that. Double Strawman; no returns.	/r/MensRights	15/08/10 09:19 PM
-1	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] meh -- I wish people would read things a little then think about them a little more... > Children don't inherit intellectual differences. They learn them. They are a result of what we expect a boy or a girl to be. > There is almost nothing we do with our brains that is hard-wired. Every skill, attribute and personality trait is moulded by experience. OK -- what does it say? That there is no significant genetic basis for any neurological ability; simultaneously, all neurological ability is a prod…	/r/MensRights	15/08/10 08:23 PM
–	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] my daughter doesn't play with dolls. that's not because I or anyone taught her not to. it was because she was born that way. the exact opposite of the article's thesis. according to the article, all boys can be taught to love knitting, and all girls can be turned into engineers. I'd love to see the authors try.	/r/MensRights	15/08/10 05:15 PM
2	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] sorry -- this article is horribly bad science journalism. any article that includes the word "mounting evidence", without supply any examples, is a huge red flag. supporting a position because you agree with it is just as bad as trashing it because you disagree. you're no better than whom you're arguing with in this regard.	/r/MensRights	15/08/10 05:13 PM
0	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] there are some extremists who "experiment" on their kids -- but then again there's also worse happening to kids as well. either way it's abuse. kids are the way they are, and deserve to be allowed to be girly-girls or manly-boys if that's how they were born. I know plenty of parents who're shocked how their child's personality was set from day one.	/r/MensRights	15/08/10 05:07 PM
1	Male and female ability differences down to socialisation, not genetics [xpost from r/cogsci] the problem with the whole premise is precisely this: than generally believed what is generally believed? that girls cannot do math? I defy you to find evidence supporting that's what's "generally believed". no one educated does.	/r/MensRights	15/08/10 05:05 PM
