| 6 | Did Women's Liberation Movement Increase Income Gap in the U.S.?TLDR: "For every household that could be dual-income that either breaks up or never gets together, you replace it with two single-income households at a lower income level." and "When you adjust to show individual incomes, the income gap is only $65k, not $160k." More thorough example from the author in the comments section: Two typical families in 1950: Both have father working, mother staying at home and 2 kids. The household makes $60k per year (inflation adjusted). Now fast forward to today.… | /r/MensRights | 27/07/11 02:30 PM |

| 1 | "Ladettes the new face of crime". Because when women commit crimes, it's because they emulate male behaviour. I for one am sick of the low opinion society has about men.As you said though, 'lad' is a pejorative term, so 'ladies' wouldn't work here. Personally, I think the creation of ladettes is a positive thing, because it creates a word for this kind of behavior when before there was no word. In a way, it's legitimizing the idea that men AND women can be poorly behaved, and is actually equalizing. I can see why you don't like it, but it could be a good thing too, especially for all the people out there who don't read r/mensrights and still think all women are… | /r/MensRights | 08/06/10 09:07 PM |
| 12 | BREAKING NEWS: Supreme Court rules Sex offenders can be held indefinitelyThat's exactly what a commentator on NPR's article said: As an attorney dealing in criminal defense, this is very disturbing. When we negotiate a plea arrangement, we usually incorporate the time of incarceration. By this ruling, the Court is removing an incentive to plea. If the defendant knows he may incarcerated "indefinitely" as a "civil" incarceration, why plea. If all of these cases go to trial, the system will be flooded. Under this, I cannot, in good, conscience recommend a plea knowing … | /r/MensRights | 17/05/10 08:07 PM |
| 5 | Federal Court: Man accused of rape has no right to present expert testimony that some women lie about rape . . . because everyone knows thatUm... children who have been abused often delay the reporting for decades, because its honestly that traumatizing.Why should adults be any different? | /r/MensRights | 03/05/10 11:13 PM |
| 20 | Federal Court: Man accused of rape has no right to present expert testimony that some women lie about rape . . . because everyone knows thatThe title implies things are as they should be, actually. If men's rights advocates don't want testimony that many men are rapists included in court rooms (which is as it should be, since it's irrelevant to a specific case), the same should be true for testimony about many women lying about rape. However, in this case it's clearly a double standard as the same judge allowed testimony that women often delay the reporting of rape, which should also be 'common knowledge' by the court's standards. S… | /r/MensRights | 03/05/10 04:07 PM |
| 6 | How chivalry killed Hugo Tale- Yax, the homeless man ignored while he laid bleeding in the street for over an hour.The only thing I can see here vaguely related to gender is the possibility that had he been a woman, people might have helped him. However there's no evidence that this is the case, and the author really just makes a lot of unsubstantiated claims. | /r/MensRights | 30/04/10 01:18 PM |
| 2 | Who Needs Fathers? New series available on BBC iPlayerNo problem! The show is actually in favor of Father's rights, they just didn't look at anything too extreme in the first episode. Hopefully they'll dive a little deeper in the other two | /r/MensRights | 03/04/10 08:05 AM |
| 0 | Mom goes nuts, kills kid. Dad gets 20.Woah. That's a lot of question marks! I'm not holding the father to a higher standard than the doctors at all, just a different standard, because he has a different role in his child's life than the doctors. Both have responsibilities, and both may have failed in those responsibilities. Unfortunately, not being in the medical profession, I can't attest to whether or not the doctors failed in their obligations under current laws (although I would certainly advocate changing the laws if this kind … | /r/MensRights | 02/04/10 09:28 PM |
| 0 | Mom goes nuts, kills kid. Dad gets 20.I'm not saying that it being complicated is an excuse, I'm saying that it means the role for doctors isn't as black and white as it is for the father. I also said already that I don't see any problem with charging the doctors with negligence as well, if they are found at fault. The complexities of the ethical issues mean that I know I'm not qualified to judge them without knowing the respective laws at the moment, however, which is why I haven't been willing to say they're definitely at fault. W… | /r/MensRights | 02/04/10 08:51 PM |
| 0 | Mom goes nuts, kills kid. Dad gets 20.First off, thanks for that article, I was only going on this one before. From it though, I thought this was a pretty good argument: Lead prosecutor Alana Minton said Mr. Maxon could have either taken Alex with him or found a baby sitter – both options that millions of responsible parents arrange all the time. "All parents have been in that situation," Minton said. "It might be inconvenient. It might slow you down. But if you have to, you take the children with you." I think this is fair. I'm not… | /r/MensRights | 02/04/10 08:26 PM |

| 0 | Mom goes nuts, kills kid. Dad gets 20.A) I'm not saying she was, I'm saying that the reduced mental capability is similar to that of someone else with a reduced mental capability (ie a 4 year old) As far as points B & C, I already addressed them in my previous comments. You're just repeating things now with out adding to the conversation. | /r/MensRights | 02/04/10 07:50 PM |
| -2 | Mom goes nuts, kills kid. Dad gets 20.Being seen as a danger to an infant when left alone, and being seen as a danger to others in a public setting are two very different things. Leaving my infant with their 4 year old brother is a terrible idea, and has lead to deaths before. But I'm not going to claim that the 4 year old is a danger to others and should be put in an institution. Most importantly though, I'm not going to claim that it's not my fault when I leave my child in the care of someone who doesn't have the mental capacity t… | /r/MensRights | 02/04/10 07:31 PM |
| -3 | Mom goes nuts, kills kid. Dad gets 20.You don't see crazy punishments like this being handed out to women. You're making a very broad statement here. First of all, the punishment isn't crazy, as the father had been warned what his wife was capable of if left alone with the child, and left his child with her anyway. That's criminal negligence. Second of all, unless you've actually seen a case like this where the roles were reversed and the sentencing for the negligent, but sane woman were different, you're just making things up. | /r/MensRights | 02/04/10 07:20 PM |
| 0 | Mom goes nuts, kills kid. Dad gets 20.That would be inaccurate by itself. It would have to be a case in which the mother was completely negligent and left her child with a man she knew to be mentally unstable after she had already been warned not to leave her child with him. | /r/MensRights | 02/04/10 07:12 PM |
| 1 | Mom goes nuts, kills kid. Dad gets 20.I'm just going to duplicate my comment to junkeee here, since it's pertinent to what you've said as well: This has nothing to do about whether he's a man or not, this has to do with the fact that he was warned not to leave his child with the mother, and that he did. It's no different from leaving your child in the car for an hour on a hot day, and dealing with the consequences. If there was an identical case where the roles were reversed and the mother didn't get sentenced, then there would be a… | /r/MensRights | 02/04/10 07:08 PM |
| 15 | Mom goes nuts, kills kid. Dad gets 20.And dad had been warned not to leave alone with the child. He was criminally negligent. This should be at the top of the comments for discussion. This has nothing to do about whether he's a man or not, this has to do with the fact that he was warned not to leave his child with the mother, and that he did. It's no different from leaving your child in the car for an hour on a hot day, and dealing with the consequences.

| 2 | Who Needs Fathers? New series available on BBC iPlayerSummary of the first film (of 3) then: The BBC follows two families, one is the typical court settlement case, and one is a couple who are working together without court intervention. This first case is pretty rough (but still not as extreme case as it could be, which makes it even scarier, I think). The father hasn't been on a holiday with his children for 4 years, and his booked his entire holiday with them, with a court order. His wife has refused to give him the kids the day before the trip,… | /r/MensRights | 01/04/10 02:00 PM |

New series available on BBC iPlayerShow description: A major series to mark 20 years since the passing of the Children Act, investigates whether its key principle is being adhered to - that in family breakdown and divorce, the welfare of the child is paramount. One in three British children have parents who are separated, and it's their relationship with the absent parent that's the key factor in their long-term wellbeing. The first film follows two families, one locked in a long battle in the Family Court, and the other determin… | /r/MensRights | 01/04/10 01:17 PM |
| 12 | new excuse: "I had sex with teen boys to keep them from soiling from my precious daughter."I have to admit, that for the 15- and 16-year-old boys she had sex with, this might not be considered as harm (by them), but certainly it's not legal. This sentence seems more important to me than the OP's headline. Whether or not they enjoyed it really has no place in reporting on this. You could just as easily say the same for underage girls. It doesn't matter if they enjoyed it or not, so just keep it out of the discussion, unless you're trying to have a separate discussion about the appropri… | /r/MensRights | 27/03/10 03:42 PM |

| 23 | "That's fine, as long as he isn't a pedophile." Someone said this to my wife about me being a stay-at-home dad.Yeah, stay at home dad stuff is pretty bad. My cousin gets called Mr. Mom all the time 'cause he's the one that's always home with the kids. For some reason, everyone thinks the only person who can be 'nurturing' is a mom. I can't believe people can't just see, oh, he's just a Dad. | /r/MensRights | 01/03/10 10:44 PM |
| 7 | Female soldiers 'forced to fight'Is it just me, or is this a terrible article full of contradictions? Female soldiers in Afghanistan are being left with little choice but to fight the Taliban on the front line.

| 2 | Suspicious activity involving a child? OMG! Oh, it was a female, well never mind then.Really? Authorities said they made contact with the driver of the white Jeep Laredo reported in the incident in the area of Parker Drive and Casement Road. They said the person in question was actually a female -- not a male, as had been reported Where does that even come close to saying that? | /r/MensRights | 21/02/10 02:49 PM |
| 1 | Suspicious activity involving a child? OMG! Oh, it was a female, well never mind then.Probably because they had all of about 4 paragraphs to talk about. I imagine the reporter wanted to include anything they could to flesh it out. | /r/MensRights | 21/02/10 12:48 AM |
| 5 | Suspicious activity involving a child? OMG! Oh, it was a female, well never mind then.Actually, the OP was. If you read past the advertisement, you'll see that they dismissed it because the woman explained her 'mistake' in asking a child. First off, no one should be under suspicion for asking a simple question of a child. Second, they mentioned the fact that it was a female and not a male because it was a significant fact, not because she was a female, but because their original tip off was wrong about the person's gender. | /r/MensRights | 20/02/10 10:07 PM |

| 4 | When Feminists and MRAs AgreeThat phrasing really bothered me too. She even identified issues that are important to MRAs, like child custody, which are clearly a result of a matriarchal system if anything (on that particular issue, not to say the whole system is matriarchal, that would be just as ridiculous as her claim that the whole thing is patriarchal). | /r/MensRights | 08/12/09 01:27 PM |

" - said in defense of a woman who slept with men in order to give them AIDS.Um... the article says "Wiser alleges that she disclosed her HIV status to her partners and that the sex acts were consensual." If that's not the case, can you link to a story that shows she slept with men to give them AIDS?

| 3 | Feminism should be about equality for males, too.I upvoted you because you're absolutely right about reddiquette, and you are stating facts. Unfortunately, you're defining post modern feminism and not the broader movement of feminism. While I can empathize with the goals of both, feminism in general is a focus on women, not equality for males and others as well. Regardless, it's always nice to hear a voice of reason, even if you're being drowned out here in mensrights.
