1	New study: Sex differences in mate preferences, with women more set on earning capacity and men on physical attractiveness in the opposite sex, did not lessen in countries with greater gender equality. Surprise, you're speaking to one. You don't seem to be making any intelligent points here, neither are you open to constructive discussion, so I wonder if you're trolling.	/r/MensRights	11/12/18 02:21 PM
1	New study: Sex differences in mate preferences, with women more set on earning capacity and men on physical attractiveness in the opposite sex, did not lessen in countries with greater gender equality. What an insightful reply. If you couldn't already tell, I'm a middle-of-the-road guy when it comes to politics and I dislike any form of extremism. Should have at least read my entire comment before you jumped the gun. And feminism isn't inherently bad, it's the crazies who take it too far, like any ideology.	/r/MensRights	11/12/18 01:57 PM
1	New study: Sex differences in mate preferences, with women more set on earning capacity and men on physical attractiveness in the opposite sex, did not lessen in countries with greater gender equality. Strawman argument. I am well aware that certain types of men-hating feminists believe that bullshit. I'm not one of them. Just because some feminists think that way doesn't give you a free pass to do so as well, if that's where you're heading with this comment.	/r/MensRights	11/12/18 12:41 PM
1	New study: Sex differences in mate preferences, with women more set on earning capacity and men on physical attractiveness in the opposite sex, did not lessen in countries with greater gender equality. Sure, I'm speculating, but when faced with data that's supposed to tell us something innate and universal about human nature, I believe that we should examine it with a critical eye and not accept something at face value. There's nothing wrong with hypothesizing about the possible causes of an observed difference. The data can only tell us so much, and the rest of it is open to interpretation. Which interpretation you favour is going to depend on your personal beliefs to some extent. (Your Moon …	/r/MensRights	08/12/18 04:58 AM
1	New study: Sex differences in mate preferences, with women more set on earning capacity and men on physical attractiveness in the opposite sex, did not lessen in countries with greater gender equality. Repost: One study doesn't prove anything. Only 36 countries participated in the study, with only about 3000 participants, averaging to less than 90 people per country. That's a really meagre sample size (and this is supposed to tell us something innate to human nature? I find that unlikely) and in no way representative of the entire gamut of human bahaviours. They included countries as long as they had at least 9 participants from that country, which is way too low a bar to set IMO. Furthermore,…	/r/MensRights	07/12/18 01:13 PM

2	New study: Sex differences in mate preferences, with women more set on earning capacity and men on physical attractiveness in the opposite sex, did not lessen in countries with greater gender equality. Those voting stats are generalities, not hard and fast rules that are representative of a group. Again, a significant portion (around 40% during Presidential Elections) of Americans abstain from voting, so any conclusions drawn are not representative of groups as a whole. How do we know what most men believe if many of them fail to participate politically in the first place? Also women are more likely to vote, it seems. I'm from a country with compulsory voting, so the American system seems very…	/r/MensRights	06/12/18 03:47 AM
1	New study: Sex differences in mate preferences, with women more set on earning capacity and men on physical attractiveness in the opposite sex, did not lessen in countries with greater gender equality. Sorry to butt in, but where on earth did you get your "statistics" that men are more likely to be conservative/less likely to want custody and so on? I'm not from America, but I follow American politics pretty closely so I have a good idea of what's going on. How can you assume what most men are like without doing a proper survey and statistical analysis? Please don't paint all men with the same brush (I'm female BTW, and I can't stand it when people generalise entire groups based on just a hunc…	/r/MensRights	06/12/18 03:34 AM
2	New study: Sex differences in mate preferences, with women more set on earning capacity and men on physical attractiveness in the opposite sex, did not lessen in countries with greater gender equality. Isn't it the nature based idea that for reproduction men are geared towards physically healthy women and women geared towards stable resource providing men? I agree with this intepretation of the research findings. It makes logical sense from an evolutionary standpoint and it is morally neutral since it does not make unfair generalisations about either sex.	/r/MensRights	06/12/18 02:09 AM
2	New study: Sex differences in mate preferences, with women more set on earning capacity and men on physical attractiveness in the opposite sex, did not lessen in countries with greater gender equality. Red Pill ideology has a tendency to attribute immutable, innate traits to the two sexes and claim that one's biological sex is deterministic of one's behaviour, personality and inclinations. Red Pillers also tend to pin the blame on all women for the actions of a few. E.g. All women are manipulative, lying, cheating bastards/gold diggers etc. This is not a good image for the MRM to adopt, which appears to be the case here. OP and another commenter below are insinuating that there are inborn diff…	/r/MensRights	06/12/18 01:36 AM
8	New study: Sex differences in mate preferences, with women more set on earning capacity and men on physical attractiveness in the opposite sex, did not lessen in countries with greater gender equality. ETA: Can someone attempt a rebuttal of my points before you downvote me simply because my opinion does not fit with your worldviews? Constructive debate would be nice. My main point is that by perpetuating sexist Red Pill ideology, you guys are shooting yourself in the foot and delegitimising your movement. I am a progressive who agrees (in principle) with the Men's Rights Movement, and I'd like to offer a dissenting opinion. As a feminist and a person who appreciates science (and whose father i…	/r/MensRights	05/12/18 03:41 PM
4	The law seems to be pretty biased here? Unfortunately, the law is the same here in my country, Singapore. According to the law, it is physically impossible for a woman to rape a man. I'm assuming that this law is carried over from English law, since we are a former British colony. I'm not surprised if many other countries have the exact same laws regarding rape.	/r/MensRights	24/11/18 08:22 PM
