7	"Scientists have made a major breakthrough that could soon see human sperm grown in the laboratory." Oooooh dammit! Goodwinned yourself, the better move at this point may have been to point out that the argument above is an example of a 'naturalistic fallacy', there is no reason that we should accept natural selection's values as our own. natural selection cares 0 for the wellbeing of sentient beings.	/r/MensRights	03/01/12 01:09 AM
1	My university has 3 female-only colleges and no men's colleges. I'm interested in your opinions, and from a neutral perspective, is this justifiable? Apologies - I should have read the wiki page more carefully. So, yeah, there is discrimination at the admissions level... It's a tough one - freedom vs fairness. Both valuable, but I can see why people would find it unacceptable.	/r/MensRights	03/01/12 12:35 AM
1	My university has 3 female-only colleges and no men's colleges. I'm interested in your opinions, and from a neutral perspective, is this justifiable? Good topic - got me thinking :) I think it does make a difference whether the admissions are handled in a gender-blind manner or not. If not then it is a problem - on one hand, I'm a big believer in freedoms (especially if they don't hurt anyone), but on the other, I wouldn't be happy to have a college that only catered for people of a particular ethnicity, and I'm not sure how this is different.	/r/MensRights	02/01/12 05:21 PM
1	My university has 3 female-only colleges and no men's colleges. I'm interested in your opinions, and from a neutral perspective, is this justifiable? My mistake, in the universities I went to the departments were in charge of admissions and students were randomly assigned colleges.	/r/MensRights	02/01/12 05:03 PM
1	My university has 3 female-only colleges and no men's colleges. I'm interested in your opinions, and from a neutral perspective, is this justifiable? The colleges are just where you sleep though, right? If the university admissions aren't discriminating against boys in order to fill these colleges, then who suffers?	/r/MensRights	02/01/12 04:55 PM
1	My university has 3 female-only colleges and no men's colleges. I'm interested in your opinions, and from a neutral perspective, is this justifiable? I'd see the problem if the university was turning down boys with stronger applications in order to fill these colleges, but as long as university admissions are gender blind, I don't think it is discriminatory to let the girls who want to study together do so.	/r/MensRights	02/01/12 01:42 PM
1	My university has 3 female-only colleges and no men's colleges. I'm interested in your opinions, and from a neutral perspective, is this justifiable? That makes sense, I'd expect there to be a fairly small proportion of girls wanting to go to university and only meet other girls. So perhaps there isn't the demand to support three colleges, but, in principle, if enough people do want to study in a single sex environment I don't have a problem with providing them with a place to do it.	/r/MensRights	02/01/12 01:35 PM
-1	My university has 3 female-only colleges and no men's colleges. I'm interested in your opinions, and from a neutral perspective, is this justifiable? This is clearly a popular view, can someone elaborate? why is it unacceptable? (edited because I can't type)	/r/MensRights	02/01/12 12:52 PM
-3	My university has 3 female-only colleges and no men's colleges. I'm interested in your opinions, and from a neutral perspective, is this justifiable? Couldn't it be a matter of demand? If a significant proportion of female students want to be in a female-only environment, but few to none of the male students did then this would be a fair solution. This is just speculation, but we shouldn't jump to conclusions, uneven gender representation isn't automatically evidence for sexism.	/r/MensRights	02/01/12 09:33 AM
5	True equality impossible when it comes to parental rights? Agreed, in fact there can never be true equality of reproductive rights without the greater evil of compelling people to have unwanted abortions. That doesn't mean things can't be improved, just that we have to accept that absolute equality in reproductive rights isn't something to aim for.	/r/MensRights	29/12/11 04:04 PM
1	Site where women can rate men and have it displayed publicly Not sure how this could ever take off. If there's enough people on it for there to be any chance that the guy you've just met will be on there then how do you stop guys giving themselves page after page of awesome reviews? That said, I'm not sure I see the harm in it, when has anyone ever listened to anyone else's opinion when they've just met an exciting new potential squeeze?	/r/MensRights	18/12/11 12:10 AM
3	Equal rights when it comes to children's surnames? An overlooked option is to both change your name to something personal to the couple (or something awesome like 'Mr and Mrs the Barbarian').	/r/MensRights	05/12/11 09:05 PM
