| 2 | Introducing Gender and exploring Masculinity with middle-school studentsThanks, I like what you're saying. I completely agree with sending a message of acceptance. I also want to discuss your point in #2 that the masculine ideal has its place and its value. | /r/MensRights | 01/03/15 05:02 PM |
| 1 | Introducing Gender and exploring Masculinity with middle-school studentsIt isn't the best video. Do you have alternative resources? | /r/MensRights | 01/03/15 04:54 PM |
| 2 | Introducing Gender and exploring Masculinity with middle-school studentsI disagree. In some cases it would benefit a boy to borrow forms of expression from what you consider to be femininity. Many young boys don't feel that they have those outlets available to them. I never said that femininity is better than masculinity overall. Children code behaviors on a spectrum of acceptability, and part of what is socially acceptable depends on the gender of the person behaving that way. | /r/MensRights | 01/03/15 04:53 PM |

| 0 | Introducing Gender and exploring Masculinity with middle-school studentsThank you, this was great to read! You expressed what I wanted better than I could have | /r/MensRights | 01/03/15 09:33 AM |
| 2 | Introducing Gender and exploring Masculinity with middle-school studentsI agree with you that traditional masculinity has great features. I keep myself fit, and I more often connect with student athletes. Those kinds of traits are part of the masculine ideal in my mind. Therefore I would give them less attention in a lesson about the breadth of masculinity. | /r/MensRights | 01/03/15 09:28 AM |
| 1 | Introducing Gender and exploring Masculinity with middle-school studentsI appreciate the input, but your suggestion is too complex for my situation. Unfortunately I have only 1 hour to craft a meaningful message, and I also need to support that message with something visual and interactive. My typical student can process about 20 minutes of dedicated listening per hour. The rest of the lesson needs to reinforce that brief speaking opportunity with interactivity (with peers, with creative materials, etc.). | /r/MensRights | 01/03/15 09:19 AM |
| 0 | Introducing Gender and exploring Masculinity with middle-school studentsI'm not sure what your definition of sexual identity is, but I don't want to talk about sexuality with my students. This will be about gender and how to be comfortable in our own skin as males. Gender is partially a social construction, but I'm not sure if I'll say that. | /r/MensRights | 01/03/15 03:53 AM |
| 1 | Introducing Gender and exploring Masculinity with middle-school studentsGood question. Both boys and girls will be in attendance. About a dozen total usually show up. Thanks for your thoughts! | /r/MensRights | 01/03/15 02:16 AM |
| 1 | So the feminists at my uni have opened up a women's only space...I agree. Based on your description, your behavior is totally acceptable, and it would not be considered ogling. If a woman has a problem with that behavior, it is her problem. It could be that she feels physically inferior, that she has a bad history with men, or that a couple other guys in the gym keep staring at her over and over. Regardless of the reason, she feels uncomfortable, and a significant number of other women agree. Therefore, it is a good business decision to provide them a women-o… | /r/MensRights | 29/05/13 07:11 PM |
| 5 | So the feminists at my uni have opened up a women's only space...So what? Part of the reason women feel uncomfortable is because they THINK men are ogling them, but that doesn't mean their interpretation is wrong. You have to trust women, to some extent, when so many of them claim that they feel preyed upon in male-dominated weight rooms. The simple solution is a women-only space. The complicated solution is strict management and honest reporting from all gym patrons. | /r/MensRights | 28/05/13 08:00 PM |
| 1 | Peter Lloyd: 'Why I'm suing my gym over their sexist women-only hours' - Men told they can't use gym because women self loath their bodies and men make it worse.True. I guess I don't agree that being 'sexist' is necessarily always a bad thing. Affirmative action is racist, financial aid is classist, but neither is necessarily bad. That's a whole other enormous and sticky argument that I'm not prepared to have, but you get my point. | /r/MensRights | 21/04/13 06:04 PM |
| 1 | Peter Lloyd: 'Why I'm suing my gym over their sexist women-only hours' - Men told they can't use gym because women self loath their bodies and men make it worse.I don't understand why people are getting so indignant. Of course you don't DESERVE a men-only gym. Of course women don't DESERVE a women-only gym. You don't get a men-only gym simply because there is not a big enough market for it. There aren't enough men that would ONLY come to the gym if it were men-only. On the contrary, a women-only gym brings out many women that otherwise would not come. Also, some women that normally go during all-gender hours would likely go during women-only hours. You … | /r/MensRights | 21/04/13 05:23 PM |
| 2 | my closest friend is a feministFeminists do not totally neglect men's issues. They also do not all think men in general oppress women in general. Again, it's not a cohesive platform. Feminists work to alleviate female oppression. That's the only cohesive sentiment. | /r/MensRights | 10/08/12 11:31 PM |
| 1 | my closest friend is a feministWhat makes you set feminism apart from women's rights? I'm having trouble convincing myself of the distinction. Feminism isn't one cohesive political platform. Some feminist-backed actions have had negative effects on men, but that doesn't mean feminist theory is anti-male. In fact, I've heard many feminists claim that feminism is "officially" for gender equality, not women's rights (but I haven't found much evidence for that). | /r/MensRights | 10/08/12 05:38 PM |
| 2 | my closest friend is a feministYou seem reasonable, can you point me in the direction of learning more about those "gaping holes"? I've heard hours and hours of feminist argument from my closest friend, a gender/women's studies/english graduate. We have our disagreements, but at the very least she's convinced me that a female-oriented movement (conducted the right way) is absolutely necessary. Edit: And I'm having a really hard time getting solid facts in support of MensRights. I can refute the wage gap argument, and I can po… | /r/MensRights | 10/08/12 04:53 PM |
| -2 | my closest friend is a feministWhy do you assume feminism and mensrights are incompatible? Both are very reasonable in different spheres of human experience | /r/MensRights | 10/08/12 04:46 PM |
