1	What women mean when they say things like "sex would ruin our friendship"? Why friendship and sex are mutually exclusive? I think they may be saying “Sex with you would ruin this friendship.”	/r/PurplePillDebate	16/04/19 03:26 PM
0	Found in my girlfriend's dorm What is hateful about this poster?	/r/MensRights	28/01/15 01:22 AM
1	I am Tired of Protagonists that accept Sluts Bruce Wayne does not hold any PhDs. That's an important part of the character; he studies and learns and could easily earn 3 PhD's, but Bruce Wayne has to appear dumb, and earning a PhD would mess with that ruse. It appears you know almost as much about Batman as you do about women...which is to say you admire them from a distance in a sexually frustrated way, and get mad at them for not following the rules you and your 12 - year-old buddies made up. EDIT: Also, Talia's name is spelled "al Ghul,…	/r/TheRedPill	02/11/14 01:51 AM
1	Outrage "Actress Felicia Day Opens Up About GamerGate Fears..." You are correct. Also, the fact that you had to type the words "she is accused of sleeping with" is indicative of everything wrong with everything. People can sleep with who they want.	/r/MensRights	28/10/14 04:31 PM
2	It is never ok to publicly shame children, especially for things they haven't done...unless they're boys. Well, rightly or wrongly, it seems like the woman who made the poster has more confidence in men than you do.	/r/MensRights	30/04/14 01:18 PM
2	It is never ok to publicly shame children, especially for things they haven't done...unless they're boys. So this thing, where men and boys are assumed not to be able to control themselves, is exactly what she is pushing back on. The whole "boys will be boys" thing isn't what she's claiming...it's what she's saying is wrong. From there, she goes on to say that given that boys aren't deserving of the shame implicit in saying "boys will be boys," if anything needs to change, it's not her dress or how we view boys. It's that boys need to be educated to rise to the respect they are capable of...not be t…	/r/MensRights	30/04/14 01:15 AM
8	Men are not even allowed to make sexual jokes in a private Facebook chat now, men should pretend they have no sexuality or sense of humor even when that “seduction” is sexual assault, I think the bolded portion above is very important. They're not saying "seduction" = rape (or rape culture); rather, they're saying that when your idea of "seduction" is the same as rape, it's pretty bad to congratulate someone for "seducing" someone.	/r/MensRights	02/03/14 02:03 PM
1	Something I want to get off my chest and discuss that's controversial enough I felt the need to make a throwaway. I'm interested to hear what made OP feel this way, as well. I'll admit to being a bit disturbed by OP's comments...it honestly feels like "sympathy for a female...MUST BRING ATTENTION BACK TO MALES!" So, that's a bummer.	/r/MensRights	27/02/14 01:09 PM
0	A very old man pointed this out to me on the bus. Said it was an incredibly sexist ad. I couldn't agree more This is how I "response" to your comment: Your statement misses the point. At issue is not "leverage" as if rape is something someone is being talked into being the victim of. Rape is not a mutual bad decision, as is adultery. Rape happens when person A overpowers person B and attacks them. The comparison is just blindingly invalid. Having said that, how would I feel about a poster like that not in the context of rape? I think it would be stupid, as it would imply things about adultery that are …	/r/MensRights	21/02/14 11:07 PM
0	A very old man pointed this out to me on the bus. Said it was an incredibly sexist ad. I couldn't agree more I do. This post was at 0 or -1 when I commented. Interestingly, as I type this, it is at -15, and my comment is at -17...so that's special.	/r/MensRights	21/02/14 10:57 PM
-1	A very old man pointed this out to me on the bus. Said it was an incredibly sexist ad. I couldn't agree more Um...where did adultery come in? The satirical comment was about women being responsible (as a result of being attractive) for rape, not adultery. It's a satire, I understand that. But it's crappy satire, as it utterly fails to make a valid point, or even to understand the point it's satirizing.	/r/MensRights	21/02/14 07:52 AM
-14	A very old man pointed this out to me on the bus. Said it was an incredibly sexist ad. I couldn't agree more I don't think that would go over quite as smoothly. You're so right. And so oblivious. Women can't stop rape because the preponderance of rape offenders are men. Men can stop (EDIT: The preponderance of) rape(s) because it is entirely possible to be around a beautiful person and not rape them. Saying men should stop rape by not abusing their strength is like saying people with guns can choose not to shoot someone. Saying women should stop rape by being less beautiful is like saying people should…	/r/MensRights	21/02/14 06:00 AM

-5	Women can't be sexist EXACTLY. I think sociologists need to work on finding a better way to communicate this concept, as most folks use "racist" to mean what a sociologist would call "prejudiced, based on skin color." Something is just lost in the translation. You did an admirable job first explaining what is meant for those genuinely wondering about this, and then applying that information for everyone, i.e. calling men here to stop hiding behind semantics and work towards justice. Well done.	/r/MensRights	19/02/14 06:59 AM
-3	Women can't be sexist I'm pretty sure most of this sub regularly denies sexism against women exists...glad that you don't, seriously, but I think there's a valid general point here.	/r/MensRights	19/02/14 06:55 AM
3	Woman who made false rape allegation and as a result three innocent men were arrested, is only fined £90. You should be arrested for obstruction of justice.	/r/MensRights	16/02/14 03:06 PM
-1	Funny how stupid something can sound when you apply the same logic elsewhere - Kidwalk If someone runs out into the road with high speed traffic, they get hit by a car. The Feminist-equivalent reaction would be "Why should I have to check both ways? They should just stop." Ok, so...according to this logic, ("logic" being an extremely grandiose term for what you did here) women, just by existing, are always in a state of walking out into the road. IOW, there are no sidewalks, no places where women can reasonably expect people not to force their penises into their bodies, and thus i…	/r/MensRights	07/12/13 04:18 PM
4	Funny how stupid something can sound when you apply the same logic elsewhere - Kidwalk So, your argument here seems to boil down to "Women walking around while being women and expecting not to be raped is the "same logic" as kids walking into the middle of the street and expecting not to be hit." Regardless of what you think of feminism, you might want to rethink a view that says that 51% of the population is walking into the middle of the road just by existing.	/r/MensRights	07/12/13 04:09 PM
2	Women rate men on Lulu vise. But a new site where men rate women is deemed creepy and they want it closed. Double standard I would say. Actually, I don't fail to understand this. For instance, I love the Daily Show for many reasons, the foremost of which is the way they hold up things Fox News host A claims in the morning against something Fox News host B claims in the early afternoon. Also, they'll take, say, an individual CNN analyst who makes startling claim A on Monday and on Tuesday, pretends to never have said it, and instead makes startling claim B. In short, they criticize the media for hypocrisy and double standards. Th…	/r/MensRights	23/11/13 01:52 PM
3	Women rate men on Lulu vise. But a new site where men rate women is deemed creepy and they want it closed. Double standard I would say. This fails to refute u/hypernormative's point that it has to be the same individuals behaving inconsistently in order to constitute a double standard. For instance, in the case you bring up, it would need to be the same group of people, who a) write a scathing article about Ratemash, AND b) don't write one about Lulu, or else it's just different groups thinking different things. Also there's this, written by a woman, from February 2013. So using your logic, there has been a double standard in pl…	/r/MensRights	23/11/13 06:05 AM
1	Women rate men on Lulu vise. But a new site where men rate women is deemed creepy and they want it closed. Double standard I would say. You seem to have committed the cardinal error of going around making sense on this sub, and hence the downvotes.	/r/MensRights	23/11/13 05:57 AM
1	Women rate men on Lulu vise. But a new site where men rate women is deemed creepy and they want it closed. Double standard I would say. So the same people that run/support Lulu also protest Ratemash? And there is evidence for this? Obviously some people like Lulu and some people dislike Ratemash. Unless it can be proven that both groups share membership with each other, this post title is without merit. But let's be honest: This post, like this sub, is built on the idea that women are a monolithic unit. So, if one woman likes LuLu, and another woman dislikes Ratemash, we can claim a double standard and avoid learning anything.	/r/MensRights	23/11/13 05:56 AM
18	Woman calls ex-boyfriend and records sex with another man. Later, claims it was rape and convinces ex to murder the other man. She lies to police about relationship to ex, claims he assaulted her too, gets anonymity and no charges. He gets life sentence. Or at all, really.	/r/MensRights	17/11/13 02:39 PM
5	Criminalizing the male gaze: giving female narcissists the upper hand So: raptorrage told a story about a guy who behaved in a way that made her uncomfortable, and that she identified as harmful. Your response was The point is the guy has a mating strategy. He's not harming you. ...and you were not referring to the guy she just mentioned, rather, the cat callers in the article? If you're having this much trouble with pronouns and antecedents, this link may be helpful for you: http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/pronouns.htm Also, just because we don't like it, …	/r/MensRights	17/11/13 02:18 PM

7	Criminalizing the male gaze: giving female narcissists the upper hand raptorrage: I've politely told a guy I'm not interested and had him follow me toward what he thought was my home, screaming that I was a stuck up bitch and a fucking whore. I really can't get mouthy with random assholes on the street and still feel safe. you: The point is the guy has a mating strategy. He's not harming you.	/r/MensRights	17/11/13 06:15 AM
9	Criminalizing the male gaze: giving female narcissists the upper hand Following someone to what you think is their home, all the while making sexual claims about them, is not a mating strategy. It's a threatening, dominating, and controlling strategy. It's sick and gross and evil, and so are you for supporting it.	/r/MensRights	17/11/13 03:44 AM
23	Criminalizing the male gaze: giving female narcissists the upper hand Um, so...the only proper response to unwanted attention is to be thankful for it? And anyone who isn't thankful for unwanted attention is a selfish narcissistic bitch?	/r/MensRights	17/11/13 03:38 AM
2	Criminalizing the male gaze: giving female narcissists the upper hand ...and now I have actually heard an MRA say "I don't rape" like the absence of raping women is a thing to be proud of. Do you want a fucking cookie?	/r/MensRights	17/11/13 03:36 AM
4	No U.S. Men in U.S. Open Final 16 in 133 years. Thank you Title IX. Um...ok. Sure, lots of men's sports programs have been cut. But there were lots of men in the running this year, they just...all lost their matches. They didn't get discriminated against because discrimination was a little more illegal in schools.	/r/MensRights	02/09/13 06:35 PM
2	No U.S. Men in U.S. Open Final 16 in 133 years. Thank you Title IX. Wait, what? First, that's the first time in 133 years. Your title makes it sound like there hasn't been a U.S. man in there for the last 133 years. More importantly, your argument seems to be that men are kept out by Title IX, a program designed to keep people from being discriminated against based on sex in school. Please, show the connection between Title IX and a lot of American men losing tennis matches this year.	/r/MensRights	02/09/13 06:07 PM
1	"Cliteracy: 101" Meanwhile, a million boys per year get their foreskin amputated because it's "just a piece of skin". Wow. That's a really stupid, poorly-researched article. Still, I can't help but note that this post exemplifies a problem that seems to haunt r/MensRights: Everything is treated like a zero-sum game. So, an article about the clitoris is seen as an (intentional?) sidestepping of the issue of male circumcision, and an affront to the rights of men. There's nothing in this article about the rights of men: it's an educational piece on the clitoris. There's also nothing in this article about how bad i…	/r/MensRights	02/09/13 05:43 AM

1	Dr Phil under attack for 'misogynist tweet' which merely contained the question "Is it ok to have sex with a drunk woman?" You can keep saying that, but I'm pretty sure Jezebel counts as mainstream feminist. If you disagree, feel free to express why.	/r/MensRights	27/08/13 08:09 PM
1	Dr Phil under attack for 'misogynist tweet' which merely contained the question "Is it ok to have sex with a drunk woman?" Your question: Why is it random feminists with blogs represent the entire movement when they say something you like but are "no true feminist" when they say something nutty? ...is a very good one. However, it could just as easily be turned towards you. R/mensrights is chock full of outlandish things that individual people have said/done, all of it carrying the notion that these outlandish actions are indicative of the whole of feminism. So, why is it that random feminists saying mean things to a…	/r/MensRights	27/08/13 04:32 AM
1	Dr Phil under attack for 'misogynist tweet' which merely contained the question "Is it ok to have sex with a drunk woman?" Ok, you win. I mean, I posted an article written by a prominent feminist writer that was posted on Jezebel, a prominent feminist website, which said: "Feminists do not want women to escape prosecution on legitimate domestic violence charges, nor do we want men to be ridiculed for being raped or abused. The idea that women are naturally gentle and compliant and that victimhood is inherently feminine is part of patriarchy." This segment, though not specifically mentioning drunk sex, does directly …	/r/MensRights	26/08/13 07:52 PM
1	[Feel-Good] "Men, often on a daily basis, risking their lives for their families back home." So, this article is pathetic and sad and silly. Your "argument" is indicative of a desperate grab for anything to keep you from having to admit that. I don't have any more energy to keep explaining vocabulary to you. Good luck, and please remember not to rape anybody.	/r/MensRights	26/08/13 04:10 AM
1	[Feel-Good] "Men, often on a daily basis, risking their lives for their families back home." Do you have the appropriate understanding/background in human mental health to understand someones motive to abuse someone to the point you can claim oppression is a motivator/facilitator? Yes. I'm not going to list identifying characteristics here, but I went to school for this. Can I claim that every single instance of abuse was consciously motivated by patriarchy? No. But I'm not claiming that. I'm saying they happen in that context. For instance, the article you linked says that abusers have…	/r/MensRights	24/08/13 02:09 PM
1	[Feel-Good] "Men, often on a daily basis, risking their lives for their families back home." You are basically saying, how you feel in your head (concept) about two words means there is a connection between them and patriarchy is teh realz because of those ideas (concepts), and that men will abuse women because of your idea (concepts) on what you think (concept) they learn from oppression or patriarchy. I am not saying any of that. I am saying, and have been saying, that individual acts of abuse are done in an environment soaked in patriarchy and oppression. Those acts of abuse are enco…	/r/MensRights	23/08/13 05:30 PM
1	[Feel-Good] "Men, often on a daily basis, risking their lives for their families back home." It is difficult to mind read intent and perspective without it being spelled out, when communicating through text. I think this is our big problem here. You need things spelled out more than most people. You said: Oppression and abuse are completely difference subjects that exist on their own and on completely different scopes of occurrence. One does not require the other to exist, nor are they linked by definition similarities. I responded by saying they're not nearly so separated, saying that …	/r/MensRights	23/08/13 03:10 PM
1	[Feel-Good] "Men, often on a daily basis, risking their lives for their families back home." I didn't say the words meant the same thing. I said the concepts of oppression and abuse are tied together, which I elucidated in my next sentence, when I said: "...men, taking cues from the oppressive nature of patriarchy, could also abuse their wives." First of all, it wasn't "This group of men" it was "Over various cultures". But the whole point of the post was that those men were representative of the various cultures. We're arguing semantics here, not substance.	/r/MensRights	23/08/13 03:39 AM
1	[Feel-Good] "Men, often on a daily basis, risking their lives for their families back home." Ok, sorry, I could've been more clear. You say the point is that "they do it because they care for their families enough to go out of their way and do extra work for them, that they did not need to do." That's what I meant by "work hard to provide for their families." Made sense to me, but I can see how it got lost. The argument is that a group of people oppressing another would not do such a thing, as it is at odds with the core concept of oppression. I got that; my argument was that this is in…	/r/MensRights	23/08/13 01:08 AM
1	My add denied publishing (never even flagged) on craigslist FWIW, I haven't downvoted you, and I don't know what Craigslist's policy is regarding posts. Perhaps they were scared off by the reference to childhood sexual abuse, like maybe they have a mod-bot that combs for that and shuts it down? I don't know, I'm just hazarding a guess. Either way, you might have more success in attracting romantic partners if you didn't lead with that. You seem to have come to a good place in terms of healing from that awful abuse...maybe lead with those things, and cove…	/r/MensRights	23/08/13 12:58 AM
-6	[Feel-Good] "Men, often on a daily basis, risking their lives for their families back home." This is hilarious. Lots of men work hard to provide for their families so widespread oppression doesn't exist? Does not follow. Further, it's worth noting that many men who abuse their families do so while also working really hard at their jobs. I'm not saying any of the men in the t.v. show did this, but to use their hard work as some sort of proof for widespread lack of abuse of women is just inaccurate.	/r/MensRights	22/08/13 02:25 PM
1	Dr Phil under attack for 'misogynist tweet' which merely contained the question "Is it ok to have sex with a drunk woman?" False. From the linked article: "According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS), nearly 1 in 5 women and 1 in 71 men in the United States have been raped at some time in their lives and nearly 1 in 2 women and 1 in 5 men have experienced other forms of sexual violence victimization in their lifetime (e.g., made to penetrate someone, sexual coercion, unwanted sexual contact and non-contact unwanted sexual experience…	/r/MensRights	22/08/13 05:15 AM
1	Dr Phil under attack for 'misogynist tweet' which merely contained the question "Is it ok to have sex with a drunk woman?" Yes. Yes I have. Feminists tend to (rightly) acknowledge that the prevalence of female on male rape is radically less than that of male on female, but I've heard feminists argue against rape of all kinds regularly. Further, I've heard them talk about about the exact thing that many in this thread seem to be conerned about: the narrative that all men want sex all the time, which leads to the idea that men can never be raped (because they always want it). Feminists tend to not like that narrative.…	/r/MensRights	22/08/13 02:07 AM
