| 1 | Sexist word "Manspreading" added to the oxford English dictionary.Speaking of language change, the word manspreading can be used by those who believe that is a tolerable and normal result of male physiology or the outcome of the patriarchy instituting seat space privelege for shitlords. Obviously the n-word isn't a nice relic of american race relations, but it would be quite Orwellian to ignore it. Besides, if the OED brands itself as descriptivist, and you as a pedant have a problem with that, then go pick up another dictionary. | /r/MensRights | 28/08/15 12:47 PM |

| 3 | Where does the MRM stand with regards to gay men?Gay men have very high rates of DV, and one thing that prevents them gay victims from reporting it is the fear of making their community look bad, and also the fear that they'll be dismissed simply for being men. | /r/MensRights | 25/07/15 07:36 AM |

| 1 | Fox News host Meygan Kelly asks 'what about men's rights?'Instead, Hume advocated simply keeping male and female students away from each other, because “boys will be boys, guys are pretty lusty, and you needed to be careful when you got them around young women”. I'm not going to piggyback off what could be quote-mining, but hey Kelly was the same woman who said that Santa Claus is definitely white.

| 1 | How has the MRM changed the way you treat men and women?Wierd thing is I was already a libertarian before I got into the movement, but now I'm less of a die-hard because I personally feel that the liberal approach (big government, large number of domestic violence shelters etc.) can help men.

Trans activists recognize that overall that people born with penises tend to behave towards the masculine side, and people born with vaginas tend to be more feminine. However, there is variance, both physically (intersex persons) and mentally (trans or queer).

I feel like being an MRA and a Feminist are nearly mutually exclusive (Unless your a name-only for one, like Sommers), but anyone can be a Feminist/MRA and an egalitarian. To be exclusively egalitarian would be to believe that the women and men suffer equally in this world, though many MRA's and Femenists do profess the existence of a two-way street, though many of these (Mostly the latter, this is why I'm an MRA) see the opression of one group as a measly side affect of th… | /r/MensRights | 29/04/15 01:49 AM |

When I read that, I though it meant that the females that responded were aroused by doing rape (Though the survey didn't specify). There is nothing is wrong in talking about how people in general can be aroused by the fantasy of being raped, but applying your last conclusion to actual policy making does constitute rape apologia. | /r/MensRights | 08/02/15 09:16 PM |

Oddly enough, no calls for more women in sewer maintenance, refuse collection or construction.'m not against playing with dolls, I played with one myself for a short while.. but this is clearly being pushed on them because 'feminine' is now conflated with 'better'.

Now, I think men should have more reproductive rights, but this bill is just horrible!When MRA's speak of male reproductive rights, we keep our hand off of women's uteri. A male reproductive pill, and fair child-support laws (you shouldn't pay child support to children that are not yours, child support shouldn't be ridiculously high.) Some MRA's are for a man's ability to choose whether or not he wants to pay child support, as a "paper abortion", though I think that is ridiculous.

| 3 | Abused boys are children, abused girls are girls. Abused men are people, abused women are women.ManWomanMyth made a similar point. It is true that people who make media are disproportionately men, and that is a problem. However gynocentrism is about erasing any special consideration for men, it is so subtle that it affects language itself. | /r/MensRights | 10/11/14 03:36 AM |

| 1 | How has being a man personally affected you? What are some personal anecdotes about how being a man has negatively affected you.Not to deny what you're saying, I want to share my take on patriarchy theory In Men's Rights Activism, the word that describes all traditional gender beliefs is traditionalism. Not matriarchy or patriarchy, just traditionalism. Some MRA's believe that we live in a matriarchy theory, but not a lot. There are several places where the MRA understanding of traditionalism and feminist patriarchy theory split. One is who overall has a harder time. MRA's use statistics to claim parity, whereas feminist… | /r/MensRights | 10/11/14 03:23 AM |

What are some personal anecdotes about how being a man has negatively affected you.I'm not in the same physical condition as you, but it is sad that being born with a penis and extra muscle here and there can constrain who you want to be. & 8.

| 2 | How has being a man personally affected you? What are some personal anecdotes about how being a man has negatively affected you.A lot of female disposability goes back to the female role of spitting out babies. In prehistoric societies, if women didn't had babies all the time, and if men didn't kill themselves protecting their tribe and bringing food, then group success wouldn't be as high. With advanced obstetrics and 6 billion people on this planet and more than enough resources (Hunger and poverty arise from unequal access and distribution nowadays), treating any human being as disposable is wrong.

What are some personal anecdotes about how being a man has negatively affected you.I am an 8th grader, 14 years in this world should ideally make me innocent. I actually consider myself a profeminist, I think antifeminism divides us and keep us from addressing real issues. Anyway, I was sexually harassed as a 6th grader, and I won't forget the double standard I have to experience. A year later, I stumbled upon men's rights. Now, before this, I was considered myself to be a feminist, and I still consider many issues from a feminist standpoint today. When I was introduced to the… | /r/MensRights | 10/11/14 01:54 AM |

Sexual harassmentWell MRA are just a stinking bunch of misogynists who can't get laid! The ironic thing is when MRA's are referred to as men who fail to attract women, one is actually supporting the patriarchy. Correct me if I'm wrong. | /r/MensRights | 04/11/14 06:59 PM |

| 7 | A Voice For Men group 'hijacks' white ribbon domestic violence campaignYes, but I am also concerned about how AVFM is going to use the money. We might all be part of the MRM, but transparency in the usage of money of any organization is important. I am ambivalent about the rather extreme measure, but I think AVFM's heart is in the right place. At the end of the day, as long as we all know for sure AVFM does with the money, I'm okay with AVFM's actions | /r/MensRights | 04/11/14 06:26 PM |

You know what, I'll coin a term for this. The Double Standard fallacy: Saying something is right because it affects people equally Examples: Saying that mother OR fathers can sit on child support without holding a job. Saying that it is okay for a man to rape his wife because it's okay for woman to rape her husband. When we advocate for equal rights, we should be focused on making the world a place that respec… | /r/MensRights | 04/11/14 06:14 PM |

| 1 | You've gotta be kidding me right? Feminspire.com article TL;DR "Be nice to women who substance abuse whilst pregnant".Yeah, I think we should work on solving these issues, instead of blaming them on women who truly are victims of the system. However, they have to be in good standing to take care of the fetus. A under served life doesn't absolve you of all responsibility for your own body, and your fetus. | /r/MensRights | 04/11/14 05:40 AM |
| 2 | You've gotta be kidding me right? Feminspire.com article TL;DR "Be nice to women who substance abuse whilst pregnant".I think that is true. Labeling these women as selfish and careless isn't going to solve the issue. Of course, women don't always have a maternal instinct. However, I do feel like these women are treated in a very punitive manner which doesn't helps the fetus/baby. | /r/MensRights | 04/11/14 05:38 AM |
