Marriages should be completely negotiated contracts with renewable terms. You should negotiate whether each party should work; the minimum yearly earnings of each party; the number of pregnancies; how much house work each must do; how many times per week there will be sex.... Custody - presumption of shared custody. Custody should not be based upon the parent with the most money.

Why is the perception of how bad period pain is a men's rights issue? If the headline was, "Turns Out Period Pain Is No Pain At All." Would this headline some how support men's rights?

There's no reason to be angry about her quote. Her quote is meant to encourage little girls. Every time you say something about group you do not have to say something about the other. Like for instance, AVFM is all about boys and men. Just because they don't mention girls and women doesn't mean women need to get angry. We are getting to the point where we complain about everything.

I hope that he will be a successful president for all Americans. This is not the outcome we wanted or we worked so hard for, and I'm sorry we did not win this election for the values we share and the vision we hold for our country.

They wanted to prevent funding of abortions. I object to that. I would not be opposed to purchasing insurance across state lines. But, I think we need a single-payer system. Healthcare should not have anything to do with where you work. Everyone should have the same benefits through a govt plan with price fixes on medications.

They have tried to repeal it for 7 years. I actually link to a Washington Post article above which confirms they did nothing to try to fix healthcare. We shall see what happens next. Fixing healthcare will be far more difficult that Trump thinks. We will see how Americans feel about him in four years when he is unable to deliver on his promises.

The Republican have been in control of the house and Senate. They could have proposed fixes to Obamacare. I fully admit Obamacare needs to be fixed. However, their primary goal was to see president Obama fail. While I believe Trump will fail and possibly resign during the term. I hope he doesn't.

NO the Republicans have not debated any plan in committee or presented any plan to the entire body or put any plan on Harry Reid's desk. The most they have done is released a paper, they call a "framework" saying what they want their plan to do and how Obamacare doesn't work. That's it see links below https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/wp/2016/06/22/republicans-have-a-plan-to-replace-obamacare-and-its-costs-are-unclear/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/wp-content/uploads/…

In actuality Trump has promised tax cuts for the rich, capital gains cuts, corporate tax cuts, end of the death tax. Rich people pay these taxes. So they can get two Pollocks... He is going with the trickle down economic theory. Oh, and he is going to give parents who use daycare a tax break.

You left out part of the quote. She said you could put “HALF” of Trumps supporters into a basket of deplorables…. The other half are people who feel the govt let them down…no one cares about them.

I think part of the problem with the sentence is the feeling that this is a privileged white male who got a slap on the wrist. If this had been a poor nobody black guy he would be doing 14yrs. This case is similar to the Afluenza teen drunk driving case. In that case the same judge just one year earlier gave a young Hispanic male 20yrs for drunk driving and killing 1 person. The white and privileged Afluenza teen killed 4 people and got days in jail.

I think there is a difference, boys are stronger, faster, bigger than girls. While the girls on the football team have no physical advantage. The boys on the volleyball team would provide an advantage. To be fair girls should not be allowed on the football team and boys not be allowed on the volleyball team. Or, they could try something like if there is a boy on one team than the other boy can play on the other team... This seems like a good solution.

Yes there is. If you are a successful man and you start dating a butt ugly girl everyone will think you are dating down. Society values "beauty" in women and "money in men.

Only date people who are your equal. Than, if it doesn't work out split everything equally and move on.

She did not give consent, she was unconscious. I would say that it becomes obvious that a person is unconscious after only a few seconds. The body goes completely limp and becomes very heavy when the owner of the body is no longer supporting their own weight. His father mentioned, "20 minutes," I presume he must have gotten this information from his son. Twenty minutes is well beyond the time to figure out that someone is unconscious. He claimed that he was too drunk to know she was unconscious.…

Don't be naive. She probably puts on the same show for her mother when its time to go back home to you.

I think that maternity/paternity leave needs to be distinguished from a basic recovery period following a birth. I had 2 C-Sections. There was a period of time following the birth of both of my children wherein I was in pain, bleeding from various places, trying not to laugh or poop too hard b/c it made by stomach feel like it may split open. I couldn't drive for 6 week. A part of my maternity leave was basic recovery time. 1/3 of births are via C-Section.

Pierce, reread the statute. She could only be charged with a crime with respect to the one 14 year-old.

For the most part the issue of fake accidental pregnancies concerns alpha males, professional athlete types, and possibly some married guys who don't want children or told their wife they don't want anymore children. Other then this group of men, I don't see the male pill having that big of an impact. I think the male pill may lead to more truth in relationships, which would be a good thing. I…

I don't completely agree. There can be emotional and/or physical injury from a crime. Crimes that cause both emotional injury and result in the victim suffering pain and physical injury are more serious IMO. A penetrative rape can actually result in pain and physical injury in addition to the emotional consequences. I think this is a more serious crime.

The criminal aspects of your proposed law would render the law unworkable.

If she has to be identified and sign documents and send letters to the father she is more likely to leave the baby by the side of the road or something instead of safely abandoning the baby.

Other than a surrogacy contract there is no legal way to negotiate child custody before a child is born.

It's not in the best interests of the child to be in this woman's care. "[T]his woman" is the child's mother. Alienating a child from a parent is horrible and is emotional abuse. The answer to parental alienation is not to remove the alienating parent from the child's life so that the child only has a relationship with the other parent.

So it sounds like what you're saying is that the Court should give the mother a year to work up to a measly 6 days per month of visitation with the child, attendance at school functions only upon consent of the father, and shared parental authority on things that don't really matter.... This would essentially remove the mother from a parental role in the child's life. I believe in true shared parenting an appropriate arrangement would be week on week off residential custody. Divided parental aut…

Yet after all this she still gets the right of making him get her permission for things like schooling and everything else that are major decisions. As I read the Decision, the father has sole authority to make decisions regarding education and medical/health. He doesn't need her permission he has to inform her and get her input. What custody arrangement do you think would be appropriate in this case?

My first thought would be that's fraud. But, on second thought if you can withdraw consent at any point, I guess you can give consent at any point too.

I suppose, if she never takes the bra off and keeps it on during the sex act than you have been defrauded. Lock her up.

You slept with a chick with tiny boobs with full knowledge that she had tiny boobs. No fraud there.

There is nothing wrong with not wanting to get married. But, you owe it to your partner to be honest. I fault him for that. They are incompatible and need to break up. It is as simple as that. If he doesn't want marriage he doesn't have to get married. If she wants marriage, she needs to find someone that want to be married. Neither perspective is right.

I believe in 2009 they started allowing coaching. Though, I think this is b/c the WTA and the MTA are different organizations and they make rules for their sports separately. it would be better if the WTA did not allow coaching. The one thing I would note is that womens tennis players tend to be younger than male tennis players. Womens tennis players are prime around 18, 19 yrs-old. perhaps both the WTA and the MTA should allow coaching for players under 18yrs.

I think slut shaming that originates from women is different than the slut shaming that comes from men. The slut shaming that women dish out is with the intention of a bullying, ostracizing the person. Its often public and damages the person's reputation. Men slut shame in a different way.

Am not sure what is listed on the birth certificate when a person gets sperm from a sperm donor clinic. But, when Lesbians get sperm from a friend the law should allow them to put "donor" on the birth certificate so that the state cannot try to get money from the guy.

I disagree with performing a test without the mother's knowledge for this reasons: the point of mandatory paternity testing is fairness. Mom knows the kid is hers. Paternity testing allows Dad to know the kid is his. If paternity testing is done without the Mom's knowledge, than Mom may not know who the father of her child is, but, Dad will always know who the mother of his child is. This is not fairness. Both parents and the child should know their parentage and who the other parent is.

Another good reason for mandatory paternity testing is that it may help to reduce infidelity in marriage. If a women knew ahead of time that she would have to get a paternity test in the hospital, she may think twice about infidelity. To be fair, we would have to require pregnant mothers to name all potential fathers such that they could be contacted immediately after delivery and a paternity test performed. This way you could catch cheating men also.

Well actually I don't think her deal is so bad. I think that sometimes alimony is necessary. She has to pay alimony for 7 years. I would prefer something like a 5yr or 6yr max. The article doesn't say how much she earns per month so I can't tell if the sum of $6000 is too much. If she's making like $30,000-$40,000 per month, than she can pay $6000 per month and keep it moving. If she's making like $15,000 per month than $6000 might be extreme.

The funny thing is if this were just an orninary working class guy and his life partner wanted to have his baby out of love. They had talked about how much he wanted to be a father in the past.... this would be a beautiful story.

You are not going to get full custody of a newborn, especially when you impregnated a 17 yr-old.

Up until around 20 weeks, I think, a state may NOT place any restrictions on abortion. As such, an unborn child does not have a right to life until this point in any state in the US.

I think the problem with what Canseco did is that at this point we don't know that he was falsely accused. All we know is that he was acquitted. This doesn't mean he was falsely accused. Further, he is a public figure who has a fan following (inspite of his steroid issues and obvious character flaws). He did not stop at posting her name. He included her address, telephone number, work, address a…

I would like to see the names of both the accused and the accuser kept confidential. I think the article is advocating for either anonymity for both parties or disclosure of both parties? The last paragraph of the article, however, suggests that COTWA advocates naming acusers while keeping the acused anonymous? Is this the correct inference? This would seem to lend support to the argument that rape is a special crime. If it special and the mere discussion of it creates a stigma than disclosure i…

If the woman decides to abort the child or they decide to put the child up for adoption, than I think he should contribute to the medical costs. However, if she advises him of her pregnancy and he signs a legal document opting out and she decides to continue the pregnancy than she should pay the costs alone. Now, if the woman does not want the child, but, agrees to carry it and give it to the guy and surrender her rights, than he should pay all the medical costs. I think a very important compone…

As I said before I don't believe the father has any fear that his son is being beaten. If he was truly afraid that the mom was beating the kids he would not have allowed the other 3 kids to go in the house. I believe he is just playing the son against his mother and that is bad for the kid especially as the early part of the video suggests the son may be having some problems (the talk about the youth pastor).

If you don't agree with spanking your child that fine. I respect your view. I don't think that spanking a kid is child abuse. Many people spank their kids.

Alimony rights can usually be waived. Both parties should have an attorney for the prenup signing. The provision regarding child support probably won't work in most states. Most states will take the position that it is the Courts responsibility to determine what's best for the child and unless the Court agrees to no child support it won't fly.

Some of these sentences just sound too long for statutory rape. 9 and 10 years is too long for this type of crime where the sex was essentially consentual.

In theory the police should simply follow the evidence and see where it leads. But, I believe the way our system works in the US is that they must first determine that a crime has occurred. This is not just the case when it comes to sexual assaults, but, all crimes. First a determination must be made that a crime has occurred. For instance, if a dead body is found the medical examiner must first determine that a homicide has occurred. If they believe the death is an accident than there's not muc…

Punishing hate is punishing thought. The US criminal justice system is designed to punish thought. One of the elements of every crime is the mens rea (mental state) of the actor. For instance a negligent homicide (homicide due to the actors foolish act or omission) is punished less harshly than a premeditated murder, where the actor thought about the murder, planned it. Thinking about and planning a murder demonstrates more of an evil mind. Hate crime legislation just enhances punishment for cri…

In addition to the fact that men tend to choose more deadly methods of suicide, I also think that men are less likely to seek out counseling and support from family and friends when they are going through a tough time.

Maybe I'm ole fashion, but, I think sex is something special in an of itself. Having sex with someone is as close as you can physically get to another person. Sex is one of the few experiences that forever changes your relationship with another person. People often have different feeling about a person after having sex with them. I can't think of anything that has a similar emotional effect on a person. Which is why sex is special. Part of the hurt that comes from sleeping with someone outside y…

Well, if I understand what you wrote, you are saying your girlfriend wants marriage, correct? If this is the case and you are totally opposed to getting married than unfortunately you two are incompatible as a couple. Marriage is a yes or a no. There isn't anything in between. As such, you probably should end the relationship and advise future dates up front that you don't want marriage. Than you can find a girl who also does not want marriage.

Rape kits are useful in cases where the accused denied ever having any contact with the accuser, stranger rapes, and in cases where minors are sexually abused. For instance, a 10 yr-old shouldn't have any semen in or around their bodies. So if a rape kit reveals the presence of semen, a crime was committed.

A spousal rape case would almost always be a he said, she said case. Unless the husband was incredibily viscious and actually beat and injured his wife.

You have a better chance of not offending a potential sex partner if you are completely honest with them. She needs to clearly know and understand what the relationship isn't before the sex occurs. Its when she feels lied to and mistreated that the risk of a false accusation arises. So you need to be honest with her that you don't want marriage and you don't want a relationship. It may be difficult to find someone willing to sleep with you after understanding your intentions, but, there is someo…

IMO this article demonstrates a real reach to demonstrate that women are truly in charge of everything and men are their slaves. The birth of Christ is without sin because, quite simply, it did not involve a penis. The entire mythology around the birth of Christ implicitly indicts male sexuality as the vector of original sin from generation to generation. No... the birth of Christ is said to be without sin, in part, b/c Mary was unmarried and about to marry Joseph when Christ was conceived. It i…

I don't know anything about Australian law, but, I presume if the Judge found that the father did not abuse the children he could have ordered joint custody or visitation irrespective of their mom's unfounded beliefs.

You're probably right Title IX goes way too far. Women are just not as interested in sports as men are.

I agree we have to come up with ways to mandate notice to potential fathers. Possibly refusing welfare benefits to children who don't have a father named on their birth certificate for up to a year after their birth.

The Feminists have done a lot, but, I actually think they have no blame in this one. This treatment of fathers goes back to the traditional roles society places upon men and women.

As I indicate in my comment, the law also prevents the prosecutor from presenting evidence to the jury which tends to show guilt. In reality, a jury does not get a true impression of the accuser or the accused in a rape case. Both parties have some parts of their background shielded from the jury.

This goes to my comment below, if we get rid of rape shield laws which prevent a jury from hearing about prior sexual behavior of the accuser we should do the same with laws which prevent information about prior crimes and convictions of the defendant from being presented to the jury.

'making the accuser comfortable' should never have been made a priority in law I don't totally agree or disagree with this statement. I think in situations where a child has been the victim of a crime (12 and under) and must testify at the trial of a defendant, I don't have a problem with providing some protections for them. In fact, I am in favor of eliminating the constitutional right to "confront your accuser." I don't see a benefit to allowing a defendant to intimidate a child witness by dem…

This is not the way. I don’t know what the way is, but, I’m sure jury nullification is not it.

Possibly, in the 1980's there was a bill to completely do away with selective service. I think it passed. Than a later president brought the selective service back. In all honesty I doubt there would be much fuss if women were required to register. The fuss would come when there is a war where a legislator proposed using the draft to get troops. If women were required to register this would surely prevent another draft.

A reactionary hit is something that occurs without a lot of thought, it ends up being an open hand slap, a push, a shove. This guy balled his fist, pulled it back, perfectly aimed it for her face, and hit her with such force his leg was lifted from the ground. That's not reactionary. The is purposeful. There was no hesitation. He is comfortable hitting women. Clearly the fight was about the tv. But, you don't punch your wife in the face light that over the tv. Yes, women can hurt a man. But, wit…

I suspect he may have hit her in the past, but, not quite like this time b/c he did it so quickly and so visciously. I say not quite like this time b/c after he hit her she was shocked. As you are aware our society does not condone men hitting women under any circumstances. Most men have grown up learning this. As such, most men are hesitant to punch a woman, even if she has hit him. Most men would respond by pushing a woman aside or grabbing her. It takes a lot of guts for a guy to punch a woma…

"If anything we have evidence she assaulted him without physical provocation...." When you look at this video through the eyes of a man, you see no "physical provocation."

She didn't swing at him until he got all in her face. Understand, if he had grabbed her hands or pushed her away from the TV, or maybe even swung at her body this wouldn't be a big deal it would just be mutual domestic violence. But, he punched his freakin wife mad hard in the face.

It's so easy to pass judgment on others when dealing with a situation which will never happen to you. You will never be on a table to push out a living child or to have an abortion.

They are targeting women. Only women can have abortions.

This study does not show that women are anymore abusive to children than men are. Women are the primary caregivers of children and the elderly. Women far more often in the presence of children than men are and therefore have more opportunities to abuse children, the elderly, and people the care for. That is all that this study shows.

NO I get your point. You are suggesting that 13, 14, 15 yr -olds can be as mature as some adults. I say that's crap. There is part of maturity which comes from experience and smply living that teens don't have no matter how mature they seem.

You haven't made any good historical arguments. There aren't any good arguments in support of sex with young teens. Mandatory consent laws oppress working class men..... Really! Mandatory age consent laws protect children. So what if working class men can't find teens to take advantage of. There are plenty of grown women they can take as wives. There's no shortage of women that requires we had children to the mix. 30 years is excessive.

"There is absolutely nothing wrong with having consensual sex with a teenager." How young do you think is too young, or is there any bottom?

" I never said that anybody should be taken advantage of." When a grown individual has sex with a teen (13, 14, 15, 16). They are taking advantage of a person who has not acquired the necessary knowledge of life and sophistication to understand that NO, they don't love you, NO they don't care about you, NO they are not going to do any of the crap they claim for/with you. While teens have the physical equipment necessary for sex they lack the emotional strength and knowledge to deal with the side…

There is nothing wrong with statutory rape laws that provide an arbitrary age for consent. Grown-ups should not be having sex with children. Children cannot sign contracts, make medical decisions, drink, and they are not sophisticated enough to consent to sex acts. What possible benefit to society would there be in allowing grown-ups to take advantage of children. There are tons of grown-up who will have sex with you. Why do children need to be added to this group.

The sentence is excessive. I think only the stranger, jump out from behind a tree with a knife rape scenario should end with a sentence of 30 years. Acquaintence/date/statutory rapes are not as violent and should not be punished as harshly.

I see where you got that now. I missed the 12 month/ lifetime column split. Though, the 12 month column doesn't make sense based upon the lifetime column. Unless they are trying to say that over a lifetime women are raped repeatedly? The disparity in the liftime vs 12 month column calls into question the whole study. This is why you can't believe all the studies/statistics you read...

Surely you have seen statistics which say one thing and another set of statistics which say the exact opposite? One of them is wrong... Or, maybe both are partially right and partially wrong. Can't believe all the studies and statistics your read irrespective of their claim to be based in science!

Maybe I looking at a different set of numbers. The charts on pages 18 and 19 are for 2010. They demonstrate that completed, attempted, pretty much every kind of rape happens to women more often. Regarding statistics I tend to believe if you perform a study hoping to get a particular result, you will in fact get that result. As such, I tend to add my own life experience or what I find believable to any statistics I read. I was looking for the numbers you came up with b/c, if true, those numbers w…

I see what your saying. But, the study he points to indicates the numbers they site refer to "forced penetration of someone else" See, pg 18 of 19.

I'm trying to come up with your numbers. But, when I look at the study its appears to say that women are victims of completed rapes far more than men. How are you working these numbers? Also note, with respect to "forced to penetrate someone else," I take that to mean that a 3rd person is forcing a male to penetrate a female or another male. As such, the penetrated person is also a victim. I suppose that person is included in this study under completed or attempted rape?

"Was the journalist too busy to point out that more men than women were raped/made to penetrate during 2011?" Can you provide link to the study/story that says more men than women were raped in 2011.

At some point during their time together he clearly suggested that sex was off limits. Whether is behavior affirmed that statement later in the evening when the clothes came off and they ended up on the bed would be tough for a jury to figure out.

Yes, I would feel the same if the roles were reversed. The facts from the story: -both parties in a dorm; -they had been drinking; -they both voluntarily took off their clothing; -they were on the bed with their clothes off (I presume they were on the bed b/c she likely would not have been strong enough to get him onto the bed and straddle him if he were resisting) -He will say she put his penis inside her; -she will say he put his penis inside her He said, she said If I were a juror I would hav…

Your story is definately rape.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
