12	Boy-hating is in That is seriously disturbing stuff. Those are the sorts of things I expect to read about in Psychological journals or the DSM IV about women who have serious mental issues, not glorified in feminist articles. At almost every stage of life the mortality rate of males is higher than that of females ... we don't need selection bias helping the population imbalance.	/r/MensRights	21/10/09 06:42 PM
3	Man seen making coffee naked in his home faces charges. Exactly - if the police ever come knocking around your house, be as polite as possible (it's petty and more trouble than it's worth to try and piss off a cop), but don't let them even look inside your house, ask if they have a warrant, or if you are under arrest. If not, then bid them a good day. Even if you are guilty, there's plenty of time to make a deal and confess after you get a lawyer.	/r/MensRights	21/10/09 02:48 PM
3	Discrimination in health insurance pricing = bad; discrimination in auto insurance pricing = who cares? I don't see it as discrimination against women, I see it as not having men and women older than child bearing age subsidizing for the higher health care needs of young women. Annual or semi-annual OB-GYN visits and the few hundred K that having a child in an American hospital costs have to be carried by someone. I accept the fact that as a young male, I had to pay stupid rates for insurance because my demographic is more risky. Seeing as how auto insurance is already mandated by the government, …	/r/MensRights	05/10/09 07:44 PM
9	"If you find out after the fact that the child you've been fathering is not biologically yours, that's not permission to stop being a dad. You are that child's father in every way but the molecular one, and responsible people take care of their children." Ummm yea.. fuck that. Because CLEARLY having a uterus makes you a better parent ...	/r/MensRights	25/09/09 07:32 PM
15	"If you find out after the fact that the child you've been fathering is not biologically yours, that's not permission to stop being a dad. You are that child's father in every way but the molecular one, and responsible people take care of their children." Ummm yea.. fuck that. I believe my problem with these laws is not the kids. I love kids, and would likely adopt if for some reason I was unable to have any. My problem is with women who abuse the family courts to use the fathers - biological or not - as a paycheck, but aren't willing to share parenting rights with them. If you're going to make me financially responsible for the kid, I want the privileges that go with being a dad too.	/r/MensRights	25/09/09 06:57 PM
12	"If you find out after the fact that the child you've been fathering is not biologically yours, that's not permission to stop being a dad. You are that child's father in every way but the molecular one, and responsible people take care of their children." Ummm yea.. fuck that. Ditch? It depends. If the mother of the child and I were still together, and we were able to work out the issues, I would probably insist on legally adopting the kid myself. If the law would require that I am financially responsible for the kid, I would want the rights of being the kid's father as well. If the mother and I had split up earlier, or split up as a result of this revelation, it would really depend on my relationship with the mother, the kid, and whether the biological father could b…	/r/MensRights	25/09/09 06:36 PM
-1	Girls' night out at a MLB park. Free shirts to first 10,000 ladies. Am I being nitpicky here or is this pretty blatant gender discrimination from a private business? I believe the line between nitpicky and going too far is whether the "reward" is of "nominal value." Honestly, a free t-shirt probably only costs (to the person buying them) less than 1$. That's pretty nominal in real terms. You probably could hold a "guys night out" at a ball park assuming you managed your message correctly. If it was something like Men's Night Out for Testicular Cancer Awareness and then they gave out Livestrong bracelets or something I doubt you'd get too much flack. If they …	/r/MensRights	16/09/09 07:23 PM
1	I was going to play Co-Ed Recreational Basketball until I read the rules [PDF - read middle of page 2] http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nhsr/nhsr010.pdf page 14 All races US Females over 20 years old - the 95th percentile is 68.2 inches - still 4 inches short - I don't have my statics calculator with me, but assuming a normal distribution of height, it's probably somewhere in the 99 percentile range. page 16 All races US Males over 20 years old - 6 feet looks to be roughly 80th percentile. So yes, pretty decent assumptions.	/r/MensRights	10/09/09 09:31 PM
3	We've got to change the dialogue if we want to gain traction as a movement. One thing that I've heard England is considering is for the names of both accusers AND the accused to be confidential until a verdict has been rendered. I believe that this would serve both the REAL victims and the accused best - the real victims don't have to have their names drug through the trial, and the accused won't have their case tried in the media. Violation of these rights to privacy could be considered contempt and get you tossed in jail.	/r/MensRights	20/08/09 09:06 PM
2	We've got to change the dialogue if we want to gain traction as a movement. It is a semantic difference between the two, but I do agree that it is an important one. If we held citizens and the justice system to a strict definition of the constitution, the burden of proof would remain on the side of the accuser by the "innocent until proven guilty" rights. Unfortunately, the mere accusation of rape is more than sufficient to cost someone thousands of dollars in legal fees, the loss of their job, their homes, their families, their children. and all before the accused even…	/r/MensRights	20/08/09 08:26 PM
4	We've got to change the dialogue if we want to gain traction as a movement. Yet from a biological point of view, in many species - primates included - males provide a whole variety of post-insemination services to the procreation process. Evolution doesn't have a lot of room for waste, and quite frankly if males weren't useful for the continuance of the species, they wouldn't exist in their role. Even in species where the males only interact rarely if ever with the female after mating, they have to fulfill some necessary niche to keep the species strong, otherwise they …	/r/MensRights	20/08/09 05:32 PM
4	We've got to change the dialogue if we want to gain traction as a movement. I agree that the police shouldn't take a rape claim as gospel until further evidence is obtained. However, you're going to have a very tough time getting anything accomplished politically - the Democrats would be terrified of pissing off the NOW, and the Republicans would be worried that it would give them a soft on crime look. Most rape cases end up being person saying one thing, and the other saying something different. There's certainly lots of rapes that go unreported due to fear and embarra…	/r/MensRights	20/08/09 05:24 PM
0	We've got to change the dialogue if we want to gain traction as a movement. IMHO, it's going to be really hard to keep any men's movement going in a long term. I don't know if anyone remembers the most recent large scale mens movement in the conservitive Christian camp - Promise Keepers which is now a dim shadow of its former self. While there were a lot of organizational problems that kept it from continuing, it's also because it's hard to keep people committed and willing to keep working unless they are personally affected. Men are easy to get together once or twice a…	/r/MensRights	20/08/09 04:58 PM
