| 3 | You can’t reduce domestic abuse by telling people that life is a power struggle between men and women. Interview with Professor Nicola Graham-Kevan — The Centre for Male PsychologyThis tired accusation that EvoPsych is a mere just-so-story has had considerable influence in America where religious groups pushed it. As a consequence, whilst EvoPsych is widely accepted in Western European universities from 1980, even by the late 1990s American universities still saw it as pseudo -science. The key to a good experiment in EvoPsych is to make a hypothesis in line with the theory where the outcome is highly unexpected. The classic example is the female hip to waist ratio. The hy… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 12/08/25 04:16 AM |
| 35 | The problem with feministas, a.k.a. Feminists who have primarily been educated bout feminism online.This is fascinating. It's the first time I've heard somebody on Reddit say what I've been repeatedly saying in my day job: the great writers of feminist theories would be horrified with Redditfeminism. I would push it a little further and point to the exasperating unwillingness of RedditFeminism to see beyond a naive view of women as angels and men as monsters. As an example, RedditFeminism likes points to be made which eulogize women, but fail to grasp these can always be spinned around from a … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/05/24 07:21 AM |
| 14 | On a post about the popularity of yaoi in Japan. I don’t think they will ever realize the irony of thisCorrect. Ironically, your point lines up with the exact meaning of "gaze" in the original Lacanian-Satrean sense, before it was bowdlerized by 'screen theory' into the male gaze. The focus of the original concept was exactly the projection of dirty thoughts onto the other by the paranoid one who thinks they are being watched. The tendency of these redditors to project such impure thoughts rather proves the strength of the original concept. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 13/04/24 10:15 AM |
| 5 | What are men's rights?That crucial Act of Parliament is 1918 should be explained here. All men over 21 finally received the vote in that year... but not quite all women... Since a huge proportion of the young male population had been wiped out in the Great War, the ratio of men to women was ridiculously skewed towards women. It was decided as a matter of sound public policy to not give young women the vote until the number of men of that age group had increased again. There was a concern this would create social inst… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 22/01/23 08:04 AM |
| 48 | Shoe on the double standard of assault against boys.The serious research tells us that boys are more likely to be victims than girls of grooming. And because they feel shame and are also 'celebrated' for being groomed, it is even worse pain than for girls. Girls now have the problem inverted. Society is now so conscious of the suffering of girls, that if they are strongminded, as many are, then they feel shame for not feeling as traumatized as society dictates they must. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 17/07/22 06:56 AM |
| 1 | Yes, I Am Afraid to Write About Men's RightsThe problem with the expression "kafkatrap" is that it refers to something which simply plays no part in any of the work of Kafka.

| 3 | Constantly Vilifying Men Has ConsequencesI can already predict activist feminist response to increases of this DV joke humour: 'We didn't cause this. If just using shocking humour to get a justified point across made them behave as an extreme misogynist, then they were already one already'. The problem with this attribution of agency to (implicitly White) men, is it contrasts with their routine posturing on Arab men: 'Don't say these bad things like "all Arabs are terrorists" because that will turn them into terrorists'.

| 5 | Slavoj Zizek — Toxic masculinity used to be called 'courage'!I think it's important to grasp Zizek's point that the insult of "toxic masculinity" is state ideology. The state ideology does not, of course, announce itself as seeking to oppress you. It always throughout human history has deflected and dissimulated. The modern consumer state seeks the (to reference Foucault) docile, risk-averse, productive subject. With new technologies, from around 1980, this archetypal subject is The Woman. The State will heavily reward obedience. It will declare those tha… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 04/08/21 08:25 AM |
| 6 | Denial of Being Complicit. A Rant.And would then turn around and complain that they were doing all the cooking and cleaning even when they actively tried to "steal" those chores There was some research on women demanding men do the shopping instead of them, to 'lighten the burden'. But once the man did it, they displayed strongly territorial behaviour in criticizing the man's purchase choices, so that they were 'forced' to do the shopping. They want to do it but must deny this act as their true agency. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 26/08/20 05:47 PM |
| 3 | Denial of Being Complicit. A Rant.In relation to your first point, there is definitely published research to show women turn away from men who display any signs of gayness. Whilst men are simply amused by a lesbian past among women, women don't display the same liberal values. Evolutionary Psychologists have tried to explain this as either the danger of the man leaving the woman (he simply has so many options), or the 'dirt' factor of increased risk of sexual diseases etc. because of more dangerous sexual activities. It is what … | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 26/08/20 05:42 PM |

This passage is from "The legal subjection of men" written in 1908 by men's rights advocate Ernest Belfort Bax.Your comment is a very good example of the insidious danger of feminist propaganda. It has some truth to it, In fact, women in Switzerland didn't get the vote until the 1970s. ...yet, Bax is British. Only in 1918 did men get the vote... and along with a large number of women over the age of 30. In 1928, just 10 years later, the women's age was dropped to the same as men. The size of the electorate tripled from the 7.7 million who had been entitled to vote in 1912 to 21.4 million by the end of 19… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 08/08/20 09:09 AM |

Or to put it another way: it was to protect the man's interest from the extreme danger of cuckoldry.

| 1 | This sub just keeps getting better and betterIt's the distinction between 'public opinion' and 'private belief'. The former is what we suspect/ think/are coerced into thinking that others believe. There are costs in revealing our private opinions. Every time we speak out we weigh that cost.

| 2 | Asked a guy on FB not to use the term 'toxic masculinity'.You are the naive observer that allows the rhetoric to spread. Let me demonstrate with a homology: "It's ok to be white" The surface sense of this phrase is perfectly ok, but the relations of its signifiers are contextual. Hence, the naive observer (say, someone reading this phrase in Botswana) would find it perfectly ok. But a campus activist in Evergreen would not. | /r/MensRights | 27/01/19 04:12 PM |

Why did the greengrocer in Communist Czechoslovakia put up the sign praising the Communist party and extolling the victory of the workers? Simply, to have a peaceful life.

This will require a time period spent in the favoured court system. So if your special other suggests a work assignment abroad where they join you then this might be the first sign.

Since 2015, the takeover of feminism by pure nuttiness has started to recede. We are witnessing an internal war within feminism.

The same thing could apply here; note the tendency of women to ruminate on how they'll feel about it after the event or to question their feelings on past experiences. It is error avoidance.
