| -3 | My boss [27F] is ruining everything for me.Yeeaaahhh this is bait. Please tell me this is a bait post. Arguing with someone who’s giving you information about their experience isn’t intelligent behavior regardless of what it’s about. This coworker told you what’s going on in your workplace and instead of thinking about how to solve the problem so that the place no longer enables that behavior, you just get mad about it and deny the shared experiences of multiple women in the office. Because if you don’t see it, it must not exist, right? … | /r/MensRights | 24/05/26 08:22 PM |
| -5 | My boss [27F] is ruining everything for me.Do you figure you might have not seen it because… you’re not a woman and therefore not the target of the behavior? Crazy thought, I know. | /r/MensRights | 24/05/26 07:52 PM |
| -5 | My boss [27F] is ruining everything for me.Seriously!! I hope this is just a bait post (the complaint about not being able to make everyone else listen to his podcasts really sealed it for me), but I also know there are absolutely men like this. Not all men, sure, but we aren’t talking about all men—we’re talking about a specific set of men in a specific workplace. “All men” are almost all irrelevant here. | /r/MensRights | 24/05/26 07:50 PM |
| 1 | Help me not become a misogynistI never use words like always and never. The irony is too much. You just made that up. That’s another bad faith strategy, lying about what I said. With all due respect, this is typical woman garbage. This is a poor attempt at gaslighting. You’ve now edited your comments to remove the veritable avalanche of absolutist claims about what women “always” or “never” think or do—including the baseless claim about what I personally am always going to think from your comment previous to this one, which I… | /r/MensRights | 23/03/26 07:38 PM |
| 0 | Help me not become a misogynistYes, I do get to have an opinion, actually. You also don’t get to decide what I’m “always” going to think or do, thanks. You’re projecting a lot onto me that doesn’t reflect reality. I don’t hang out on feminist subs on reddit, but I have conversations about men’s issues all the time with actual people. You’re alienating people by telling them what they think before they’ve actually said anything—the same thing plenty of women do to alienate men. Maybe if you stopped this “always” and “never” ex… | /r/MensRights | 22/03/26 08:55 PM |
| -3 | Help me not become a misogynistThat’s not what I said at all. I’m totally willing to address women’s wrongs, but when things become all about bashing women for shit, they’re no longer about men’s rights and instead devolve into a misogyny circlejerk. | /r/MensRights | 22/03/26 08:17 PM |
| -3 | Help me not become a misogynistThen you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what feminism is. You’re making some extreme, absolute statements about something you don’t know anything about. There’s absolutely misogyny in this sub. I’m all for calling out women’s wrongs, but when all that’s happening is bashing women over shit, it stops being about men’s rights and starts being about hating women. | /r/MensRights | 22/03/26 08:15 PM |
| -2 | Help me not become a misogynistIt’s easy to spiral into hate when you don’t have friendships to keep you grounded in love. Are there any old friends you could reach out to? Are there any hobbies you’ve been wanting to try that might provide opportunities to build new friendships? There are plenty of women here—most of us just don’t feel comfortable participating in the majority of posts because “mensrights” is so often equated to “womenswrongs”, and we want to support men, not jump into the fires of misogyny.

| 1 | This is what happens when you post here for anyone wonderingDon’t be so sure. This sub is only the last in a looooonnnggg line of subs I know that get you banned there, and I’m a woman and feminist. You think someone this fringe isn’t going to go after the “wrong” kinds of women and feminists too? Which is… most of us. Barely anybody can participate in that sub, which is why r/trueoffmychest got made. | /r/MensRights | 31/10/25 10:04 PM |
| -3 | I’ve been dating a girl for a little while and just learned that she falsely accused a guy I know of rape recently, now I’m trying to figure out what to do.There’s plenty of evidence to back it up—it’s just a short google away!—but even more importantly, there is nothing anti-male about it. People of any gender can and do get raped. Rapists aren’t all men and victims aren’t all women. Believing victims isn’t about believing women. And I’m not at all arguing that OP owes this woman a relationship. I happen to think he should get as far away from her as possible as fast as possible and never look her way again. | /r/MensRights | 12/10/25 07:03 AM |
| -7 | I’ve been dating a girl for a little while and just learned that she falsely accused a guy I know of rape recently, now I’m trying to figure out what to do.Nope, that’s not what I said at all, and it has nothing to do with the genders of the people involved. If it was the case that a man was making an accusation of rape, the best move there would also be to believe him. Saying that my logic is “because he’s a man” and “because she’s a woman” demonstrates a startling lack of reading comprehension. The logic is that most people who speak out about being raped are in fact being genuine, and that’s why I’m arguing against believing this particular rand… | /r/MensRights | 12/10/25 06:55 AM |

You don’t see why someone would try to get ahead of that kind of story? He knows you have a thing going, so of course he’s going to assume she’s going to mention the issue to you. Why would he not lie about it? He’s apparently the type to divulge all sorts of details about his encounters, and he’s telling everybody this while she’s … | /r/MensRights | 12/10/25 01:53 AM |

| 6 | Sexually AssaultedI just want to say I’m so sorry this happened and my heart goes out to you right now. It’s a traumatic experience in any case, but when the perpetrator is a friend who betrays your trust and exploits your vulnerability, it’s especially heartbreaking. It sounds like this happened a while ago? Is it past the point where you could get medical assistance to have that on record? Could you get witness statements re: the state you were in and the state she was in? In any case, I hope you’ve been able t… | /r/MensRights | 28/07/25 08:51 PM |
| 11 | Sexually AssaultedAll the things that are standard now began somewhere. They happened for the first time at some point. There’s no right answer for what’s right for you, though. It’s certainly an intense process to be interrogated and scrutinized and have your trauma dissected under a microscope. However you choose to process this is ok. You may want to start with a private therapist if that’s a possibility. Someone you can talk to without being critiqued and judged.

| -2 | What are the actual chances of being falsely accused?Good thing they aren’t mine, then. There’s an essay in Amia Srinivasan’s The Right to Sex that covers the topic pretty well. I’m not necessarily a fan of all of her work, but she has some good insights in that one and cites some quite startling facts that might open your eyes to the depth of the cultural problems at play here. | /r/MensRights | 28/07/25 06:50 PM |
| 2 | What are the actual chances of being falsely accused?Police aren’t interested in the truth. They’re interested in pinning something on somebody. If they’re talking to you, that person is you. Doesn’t matter if they “just want to talk”. Doesn’t matter if you “aren’t in trouble” or “aren’t a suspect”. You can only ever lose. Your first words are “I want to speak to a lawyer”. Let’s say someone—doesn’t even matter the gender—has unquestionably been the victim of rape. Maybe they were drugged and so everything’s a bit fuzzy; the people they remember s… | /r/MensRights | 28/07/25 06:46 PM |
| 1 | What are the actual chances of being falsely accused?Extraordinarily low. People like to overestimate the likelihood of low-probability but high-stakes events (when they aren’t playing the It Could Never Happen to Me game). Brains be weird, but a bit of objective consideration clearly shows that this isn’t something worth losing sleep over. What’s much more worth considering is the potential to be victim to rape. It isn’t just women who need to know how to protect themselves from sexual predators. | /r/MensRights | 28/07/25 06:17 PM |
| 0 | What are the actual chances of being falsely accused?You’re going to have to be more clear. I’m genuinely not sure what the quiet part is supposed to be here, so you’ll need to say it out loud to make it intelligible. | /r/MensRights | 28/07/25 06:10 PM |
| 0 | What are the actual chances of being falsely accused?Estimates predict it’s actually approximately the same rate as for other types of crimes: ~2%. The interesting thing is that most of those false accusations don’t actually come from the “victims” but from law enforcement or male relatives or other outside voices. If you look at the most famous incidents of vigilante justice against men accused of assault against women, they’re almost all instigated by men claiming that another man has assaulted their sister/daughter/cousin/neighbor/fellow citize… | /r/MensRights | 28/07/25 06:08 PM |

Genital mutilation is a completely reasonable thing to be upset about. And while I think it’s absolutely fair to be angry with your parents for making this decision without your consent, I also think that perhaps some of the anger you’re directing toward them might belong to the society that accepts genital mutilation as standard and blatantly pressures parents to make this decision without their children’s consent.

| 10 | I’m genuinely starting to hate my parents for making me circumcisedIt’s not only that they’ve trusted doctors’ advice, either, but the outright assumption by medical professionals that parents will choose circumcision is often enough to get parents to go along. I’ve heard stories of nurses coming into the room and trying to take the baby because it’s time for his circumcision, just taking it for granted that it’s happening. Even without the added force of perceived expertise, the social pressure in the moment can be enough to get people to just go along with it… | /r/MensRights | 16/07/25 09:37 PM |

| -2 | To be real. Can we agree that ORGASMING REGULARLY is a man's physiological necessity like peeing?I didn’t call you anything, I just told you what the group you were trying to refer to is in fact medically and academically called. It’s not equivalent to calling someone a slur, and both the slur and alternative identifier you chose have to do with someone’s sexual orientation, not their gender identity. Whether you’re cis or trans is a different question from whether you’re straight or gay. | /r/MensRights | 11/07/25 12:32 AM |
| -3 | To be real. Can we agree that ORGASMING REGULARLY is a man's physiological necessity like peeing?Those are called cis people. There’s no reason to assume you can identify them by testosterone, though, so that language only makes it harder to discern your meaning. Just say cis men, otherwise we won’t know that what you actually intend is men who were born with visible dicks/balls. Plenty of cis men have low testosterone, and plenty of trans men have high testosterone, so using that as a substitute classification system only makes things more confusing.

It’s often quite… unfortunate. There’s absolutely hope for the uggos of the world, which I can attest to as a certified uggo myself. Hell, if you look at “attractive” celebrities without makeup?

Seriously though, as a woman I just creamed my jeans. The most important thing I saw in your comment is that he be willing to stand for something; everything else flows from that. A guy who isn’t willing to stand for something—or who stands for the wrong things—simply isn’t attractive. The value of having someone in your life comes from what they value.

We women are uggos too! The “aesthetic” you’re talking about is makeup. 😂 Makeup shapes and accentuates your face in whatever way you’d like; it doesn’t just look one way.

Toxic masculinity specifically refers to those aspects that cause harm. Most of masculinity is good! But some facets of modern masculinity contribute to the male suicide epidemic, the loneliness epidemic, the male crime rate, and just… general unhappiness amongst men.

You can’t really say “unborn children” are involved until late in pregnancy, at which point people don’t have abortions except in extremely rare circumstances entailing medical necessity.

That’s not biology, that’s an inconsistent legal standard.

| -1 | Andrew Callaghan. Let's talk.Yeah, it’s gross. And then he wonders why women don’t tolerate him. | /r/MensRights | 13/01/23 01:45 AM |
| 1 | Andrew Callaghan. Let's talk.Thanks for being on the side of basic human decency and rationality. I #canteven with these responses. And then the rest of these morons wonder why women don’t want to be around them but do want to be around you. | /r/MensRights | 13/01/23 01:42 AM |

| 0 | What do you realistically think the future holds for men in our society?I think this is highly dependent on how the economic structure of society develops in coming years. A lot of the divisions between sexes, races, ethnicities, etc, etc, are fed by class division. Take away that source of division and all of a sudden you’re playing an entirely different game. Economic investment in universal quality of life gives everyone a chance to be free, and only then can we see which differences actually remain. That’s the best-case scenario for men because it removes the cr… | /r/MensRights | 10/01/23 06:46 AM |
| 3 | My dream is to be a stay-at-home dad“Masks” by Shel Silverstein: She had blue skin, And so did he. He kept it hid And so did she. They searched for blue Their whole life through. Then passed right by– And never knew. — Advertise that shit. A woman who wants her kids taken care of at home but is passionate about her career isn’t going to look at you and think you’d ever in a million years want to be a stay-at-home dad. Why would she imagine a lawyer would be willing to drop all of his hard-won success to raise a family? You’re invi… | /r/MensRights | 06/01/23 06:30 AM |
| 2 | How did men go from supposedly ruling the world to being public enemy #1?Most women are straight. Most women literally love men. | /r/MensRights | 04/01/23 11:39 PM |
| 2 | How did men go from supposedly ruling the world to being public enemy #1?This right here is Exhibit A. You’ve fallen for it. Who is “they”? And more importantly: who is telling you that this is what “they” are saying? | /r/MensRights | 04/01/23 11:37 PM |
| 1 | How did men go from supposedly ruling the world to being public enemy #1?So basic, yet we keep falling for it. | /r/MensRights | 04/01/23 11:35 PM |
| 4 | What are some ways you want female friends to acknowledge men's rights?I’ve had to do this to my female friends, but the times that stick out most to me are those when I’ve had to do this with male friends. It seems like internalized misandry is just as much a thing as internalized misogyny. | /r/MensRights | 04/01/23 03:21 AM |
| 82 | How did men go from supposedly ruling the world to being public enemy #1?Because the people with the most power in our society benefit from arbitrarily pitting different groups against each other. Speaking of the relationship between white men and black men, it’s been extremely well-documented that racial conflict in America was instigated by the rich and powerful to keep the poor of both races from uniting against them. Now that women participate in society (and in the economy) on more equal terms, the best thing powerful people can do to maintain the status quo is … | /r/MensRights | 04/01/23 03:18 AM |
| 2 | Not sure if right place to post… My daughter is trying to contact me, and I’m torn.Your daughter is still a child. She's only ever known the life her mother gave her and only ever heard her mother's narrative of what happened. The fact that she reached out at all suggests that she might not completely buy into the story she's been told. I also dealt with a bit of parental alienation as a kid, which is why I wanted to comment even though this post is a few days old. What I'm hearing in your post is that you're scared to open your heart again when you've been hurt so much for so… | /r/MensRights | 03/01/23 12:22 AM |
