4	Thanks in large part to support from /r/mensrights, CAFE reached their goal of $50,000 to open Toronto's first shelter for male victims of domestic abuse Hell yeah!	/r/MensRights	07/01/18 05:04 AM
1	The Wage Gap this is what MRAs did for decades and nobody noticed. They did notice, though. Only when things got more "bad" did this change. It got more outspoken and had a radical message (not "bad"), and got a lot of help from things like the internet. Oh and those who were always "nice" are still called rape apologists and misogynists. And? Catch more flies with honey etc etc. That you're tired of getting called names isn't a reason to not try to convey your message with a level head. Are you deluded? No,…	/r/MensRights	29/09/17 09:57 AM
1	The Wage Gap Show me your feminists asking for women to bear a proper share of the pain and I'll bury you in feminists asking for special advantage for women. That there is disagreement among feminists about this might point to there being some substantive reasons involved, right? Like, you say "special advantage for women" when in reality one of the big issues some feminists raise about women becoming eligible for the draft as it stands is the need for first making fitness standards equal across the board. …	/r/MensRights	28/09/17 02:27 AM
1	The Wage Gap Did I say that selective service shouldn't be imposed on them? Also, Are you under the impression that feminist philosophers and feminists in general think that women shouldn't bear the same imposition? Seems like feminists are against the draft in general, but for women being eligible for it if men are, insofar as the standards for fitness become fixed across the board regardless of gender. What burden was imposed on women? None. And who do you think made that decision? Feminists?	/r/MensRights	28/09/17 01:54 AM
0	The Wage Gap Since it seems you don't know about how feminism has made the situation for men worse It shouldn't seem that way, and if it does, that's just you making incorrect assumptions in bad faith, pal. I am aware of the harm to men that certain feminist organizations have caused, hence why I told you that I didn't need to filled-in. Again, I am fully aware of the reasons people criticize the views/actions of contemporary feminists. I don't know why you are taking my disagreement with you as a sign of my…	/r/MensRights	28/09/17 01:27 AM
1	The Wage Gap Exactly. The movement should focus on informing the public and helping the victims of inequality. This. 100% this.	/r/MensRights	28/09/17 12:24 AM
1	The Wage Gap I mean, sure. Any press is good press, I suppose. Although, given how much negative press there is out there about the MRM already, it's not clear that we shouldn't actively work on cultivating a more positive image. This post got 23k views. Imagine how many views (and shares) it would have gotten if it wasn't just a meme. Like, this could be featured at the beginning of a thoughtful essay on the topic that clarifies the issue. Memes just don't force people to engage with material on an intellec…	/r/MensRights	28/09/17 12:20 AM
5	The Wage Gap I disagree. Snarky internet meme < thoughtful conceptual analysis. This seems far more polarizing than informative.	/r/MensRights	27/09/17 10:01 AM
2	The Wage Gap Still believing the rewritten history that is the work of feminism. Please. I don't need to be "filled-in" on these topics, given that I am a member of this sub already and have been a member for years. I'm not some outsider who came here to poke the MRM hornets's nest. That said, I am also familiar with some of the significant work done by feminist philosophers, i.e. legitimate academic work that served as the actual intellectual foundation for the feminist movement. Feminism was never a good t…	/r/MensRights	27/09/17 09:54 AM
3	The Wage Gap Feminism is necessarily opposed to men's rights Not in principle, no, but that's beside the point. This sort of post doesn't spread awareness of men's rights issues, it's just engaging in what amounts to a flame war. There are enough anti-feminism subs out there already. This is the sub for men's rights. Shitposting of this sort helps no one, least of all the MRM.	/r/MensRights	27/09/17 08:24 AM
1	Public university, they don't have a time reserved for men only weightlifting. Is that not discrimination? If it's that big of a deal they should have made a special area for them not restrict acces to half of the population That's what they did, though. They weren't getting the whole gym. Are they usually laughed at, touched or anything like that? No. So don't restrict acces. Tell that to the people who own/operate the gym facilities. I'm sure they'd love to hear your views on the social injustice of their decisions. I personally think those owners/operators can do whatever they want to do because i…	/r/MensRights	13/09/17 08:11 AM
-1	Public university, they don't have a time reserved for men only weightlifting. Is that not discrimination? No, since paying for membership has never meant that you have free range of all the facilities at any and all hours of your choosing, e.g. when the gym is closed for the night. The permissions gained via gym membership are granted by the gym and are limited to what appears in the membership contract. Generally, the owners of the gym, not the members, ultimately get to decide what the rules of the gym are.	/r/MensRights	12/09/17 09:00 PM
1	Public university, they don't have a time reserved for men only weightlifting. Is that not discrimination? So you don't think there should be 2 hours blocked off for men then? What on earth makes you think that I would think it's not okay for men to have a similar program? Of course I think it's okay for men to have such a program, and for the exact goddamn reasons you give in your reply. I am getting the sense that you and some others ITT (thanks for the downvotes y'all) aren't being very charitable when reading and interpreting my replies. It's not clear to me why that is.	/r/MensRights	12/09/17 08:39 PM
1	Public university, they don't have a time reserved for men only weightlifting. Is that not discrimination? I think it is. It should be noted that I'm using 'right' in the technical/legal sense of the term, i.e. we don't have the legal or contractual right to use the gym's facilities whenever we feel like it, e.g. when it is closed or when the owners of the gym allow groups exclusive rights to their facilities at a specific time. Gaining membership to a gym generally doesn't make you part owner of that gym, you dig? Double standard much? And what's the big deal that someone looks at you? Not really gi…	/r/MensRights	12/09/17 08:25 PM
1	Public university, they don't have a time reserved for men only weightlifting. Is that not discrimination? So this whole thing is trivial.	/r/MensRights	12/09/17 08:05 PM
2	Public university, they don't have a time reserved for men only weightlifting. Is that not discrimination? Good talk.	/r/MensRights	12/09/17 07:58 PM
0	Public university, they don't have a time reserved for men only weightlifting. Is that not discrimination? That's literally what i say further down in this thread.	/r/MensRights	12/09/17 01:08 PM
-1	Public university, they don't have a time reserved for men only weightlifting. Is that not discrimination? Of course it has to do with discrimination. That's the whole issue. The whole issue is about prime workout hours, not about the existence of the program or the fact that the gym's hours of operation get reduced by 2 hours overall for men. Here's the scheduling problem, as it was initially laid out by khalbert1: its prime workout hours. If they want their own time make it at off hours. But don't block 50% of the population from being able to use the facility in the most convenient time of day. As…	/r/MensRights	12/09/17 10:21 AM
1	Public university, they don't have a time reserved for men only weightlifting. Is that not discrimination? Okay? I'm not sure how this addresses my reply. I already stated that I think it is discrimination, just not really anything egregious, in that the most relevant issue (the prime workout hours thing) has nothing to do with the apparent discrimination.	/r/MensRights	12/09/17 09:09 AM
-8	Public university, they don't have a time reserved for men only weightlifting. Is that not discrimination? I agree, but that's kinda beside the point, as that issue isn't one of discrimination, just scheduling. EDIT: Apparently, agreeing with my interlocutor calls for being downvoted. Cool.	/r/MensRights	12/09/17 08:24 AM
-15	Public university, they don't have a time reserved for men only weightlifting. Is that not discrimination? Yeah, but come on, some women aren't trying to have their asses stared at (directly or via the mirrors all over the place) by a bunch of dudes every time they go to the gym. Let em have the 2 hours. Also, being allowed to use the gym whenever isn't a right.	/r/MensRights	12/09/17 06:30 AM
2	If a woman hits you, you're an asshole. It was developed in the early 1980s (about a century after feminism began), so it's a fairly recent thing. Wikipedia has it as "the most common batterer intervention program used in the United States" as of 2006. Third-wave feminism (modern feminism) began about a decade after the Duluth Model was initially developed, and probably had a lot to do with its use being so common today. That makes it pretty damn modern. If it's not exactly modern feminism, it's certainly modern enough.	/r/MensRights	17/04/17 08:45 PM
1	If a woman hits you, you're an asshole. I said feminism promotes some pretty shitty stuff No. You initially said: Feminism has been a load of crap since the beginning. It's always relied on the safe exterior of its name of "equality" to promote heinous ideas onto society. This is what I was initially responding to. I asked the question because women's suffrage movements marked the beginning of feminism. If you didn't mean to imply that you weren't a fan of women having the right to vote, then it's not clear why you would claim that fe…	/r/MensRights	16/04/17 10:22 PM
0	If a woman hits you, you're an asshole. Getting them the right to vote without having to sign up to the draft is not equality. I asked you if you believed that women getting the right to vote was a heinous idea. That women currently don't have to sign up for the draft has nothing at all to do with that. It's a red herring. So either make it the same for everyone or don't call yourself a movement for promoting equality between men and women. Most feminists are against the draft in general (like most people), although I'm pretty sure mo…	/r/MensRights	16/04/17 10:51 AM
0	If a woman hits you, you're an asshole. Feminism has been a load of crap since the beginning. It's always relied on the safe exterior of its name of "equality" to promote heinous ideas onto society. You can't honestly believe that women getting the right to vote was a heinous idea.	/r/MensRights	15/04/17 10:58 PM
2	If a woman hits you, you're an asshole. Go into /r/feminism or /r/askfeminists and use a coherent logical rebuttal to a feminist ideological idea and see just how quickly you are banned. I mean, this is pretty inaccurate. One of my first posts on reddit was in r/askfeminists, calling the continued use of the term patriarchy into question. I didn't get banned. I didn't even get downvoted. I got a really constructive conversation from the community there, actually. If you were banned from these subs, it probably wasn't because you were …	/r/MensRights	15/04/17 10:51 PM
2	Philly Judge: "If you were a male and it was a 16-year-old female, people would be outraged and screaming for blood" Your butthurt whining fuels my dark power, and unnatural youth. I'm totally stealing this. Have an upvote.	/r/MensRights	09/03/17 09:38 PM
1	Philly Judge: "If you were a male and it was a 16-year-old female, people would be outraged and screaming for blood" I'm sure the kid knew what he was getting in to. Have you ever met kids?	/r/MensRights	09/03/17 09:13 PM
1	Philly Judge: "If you were a male and it was a 16-year-old female, people would be outraged and screaming for blood" I don't think this 16 year old had any problem with this. You think this, even though the 16 year old said that he had a problem with it?	/r/MensRights	09/03/17 09:08 PM
9	Philly Judge: "If you were a male and it was a 16-year-old female, people would be outraged and screaming for blood" Schabang? Regardless of what that word means, I'm gonna say no, probably not. If I did schabang, I'm sure that I'd remember having schabanged. I hope to have adequately addressed your questions with this reply.	/r/MensRights	07/03/17 11:47 PM
16	Philly Judge: "If you were a male and it was a 16-year-old female, people would be outraged and screaming for blood" Holy shit I think I went to high school with this woman. EDIT: Confirmed. I didn't know her well at all, but I immediately recognized her face while scrolling on my front page. She seemed like a nice girl from the few times I'd spoken to her. Bummer.	/r/MensRights	07/03/17 05:20 PM
2	Feminists may never forgive Cassie Jaye, the 30-year-old San Anselmo resident, who has the audacity to present evidence that challenges their condemnation of men’s rights organizations Did you think the sub just randomly, for no reason, calls themselves that? Uh no. Certainly not, hence my mentioning both the red pill sub/movement and the fact that it's clearly a matrix reference. Like, I'm very aware that both are matrix references. My point/question was about whether she was simply referencing the matrix (in ignorance of the existence of trp sub/movement) or referencing the matrix in the way trp does, specifically as a nod to trp.	/r/MensRights	10/11/16 02:01 AM
1	Feminists may never forgive Cassie Jaye, the 30-year-old San Anselmo resident, who has the audacity to present evidence that challenges their condemnation of men’s rights organizations But, wait, why is she calling it "The Red Pill" if it's a documentary about men's rights? They seem like very different movements. Maybe I'm assuming too much, though. She might just be referencing the matrix. Still, seems odd.	/r/MensRights	10/11/16 01:03 AM
1	Feminist lives as a Man for 18 months to try to prove "Male Privilege". Learns Women are more Privileged than Men It's like they could only pretend to be respectful until she was out of the room, then it was all about how much of a slut she must be in bed and how they couldn't wait to find out. I think you might have it a little backwards here if you think that the pretending happens when the girl is around, rather than when a couple of guys are hanging out talking mad bro shit with each other.	/r/MensRights	02/09/16 07:39 AM
2	Feminist lives as a Man for 18 months to try to prove "Male Privilege". Learns Women are more Privileged than Men You'd think that she wouldn't have gone through the trouble of disguising herself if she really had such a sense of entitlement. I don't think the word entitlement means what you think it means. Someone guilty of trespassing doesn't necessarily think they're entitled to go where ever they please.	/r/MensRights	02/09/16 06:56 AM
