his staying there in that moment on the video we had was putting the child in more danger. So you decided to criticize him for what he should have done in the past, instead of telling him what he needs to do. I wouldn't trust your judgement, after such bad judgement about wooly. If he already had evidence of being beat up to the point that she was really putting the child in danger, then he should visit a lawyer right away. Nobody criticized Gary Shirley, he didn't cause her to be violent.
/r/MensRights04/10/13 05:13 AM

Of course the only chance the man had was to collect evidence. Then why aren't you advising men to do so and how to collect it? He should be going to a lawyer to take it in front of a judge. The issue isn't whether he should leave in an opinion after the fact about a fictional abusive woman, the issue is if he has enough evidence and if his kids are safe. She's putting the child in danger, it's almost as if she's threatening to hit the child if he doesn't leave. He has evidence, he's got to use …

Hey Dean, can you make this public again so we can analyze this properly. Wooly has already deleted her video, but I'm sure we can all agree that she didn't show any empathy. You're apology was very empathetic, but I wasn't one of the ones insulting Wooly, I just disagreed with her and you in your focus on the man's responsibility to leave and lack of viable options like collecting evidence. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9-HvxW5Gto&feature=plcp

1) I did not delete any comment by you. Well, the comment didn't go through, it may not have been deleted. 2) I absolutely, positively, DO NOT advise men to abandon children to abusive women. Perhaps there's a misunderstanding here then, do you agree that the only chance this man and child has under the circumstances is to collect evidence? There's no point in coming back when she's calm and taking a video of her calm. You need to make a video when she's hitting you. Did you remember what happen…

I didn't follow up because he erased my previous comment. Thanks for letting me know. Here goes. Edit: My response to Dean. Okay Dean. Here's the subject. We're going to re-cap your advice to abused men to abandon their children to an abusive woman and the complete lack of empathy for that man to make such a decision exhibited by yourself and woolybumblee. Maybe Paul should be able to form and opinion on such an important decision for abused men too.

If you present yourself in various forms of "unprofessional" or unprepared then people aren't going to think you're serious and aren't going to take your movement seriously. The whole unprofessional business goes much further into AVfM's involvement with the Woolybumblebee and the Earl Silverman Centre. That was step by step unprofessional and extremely poor judgment on the part of Dean and Paul right back to the beginning of 2013.

They need a better understanding of feminism and how the 2nd wave marxists feminists were left to the sidelines by the capitalist feminists. Also, the fact that feminists aren't the cause of all men's problems. Erin Pizzeys screed on communism was suitable for the 1950's, but in 2013, 22 years after the fall of the soviet union, it's cringeworthy. Focusing on a small vocal faction of militant feminists detracts from a proper understanding of the whole of society.

Page views are good for spreading information but that doesn't translate into any real world progress. The real trick to AVfM's exploding growth in page views has been producing more articles, many of low quality. It's not objectionable language, but a reliance on rhetoric and avoidance of discussion.

But rather than spending your time trying to tear down people who are actually trying to achieve something, I don't know what they are trying to achieve because I have the impression they are dishonest by avoiding debate and not answering questions. I also have the impression they are throwing men under the bus (Dean, Paul, Fuzzybee) to promote anti-feminism. Edit: what

I'm pretty much 95% in agreement with AVfM, which is good, but they gotta stop opinion policing. They are not the MRM, they do not represent all men and they are not the leaders of anything. The sanctimonious cock stroking gets irritating.

AVFM seems to get a bit of a negative reaction around here, mainly because the demographic here is a lot younger. That's not the case with me, I've been around for a long time to see how AVfM operates and know very well that there are other organizations that do stuff and get results. There's no point in having lots of web hits without any real accomplishments.
/r/MensRights01/10/13 01:05 AM

This, and I think AVfM has the ability to make progress, but they're slanted too far with 95% anti-feminism. It's been made very clear that they don't help men, they are an activist organization. The anti-feminism get's a bit ridiculous when I hear Robert discussing circumcision. I remember on one radio show they had a doctor anti-circ activist and it was obvious that he was cringing and very uncomfortable. Not from the language used, but because because of the baseless rhetoric.

They've changed a lot of laws and are working on Shared Parenting. Meanwhile, Paul Elam can only mope about no-fault divorce and won't support the efforts of Fathers Rights Activists.

I don't have any problem with the language, just that it's an ideological echo chamber that is purely anti-feminist(not that there's anything wrong with that) and using mens rights as a cover.

I downvoted it because it was bad information. Source: Been there, done that, including paying for kids who aren't mine. Edit: It appears neither are correct, here is some clarity. For tax purposes, you are common law after one-year. For spousal support, you are common law after 3 years, but less if you have a child together. http://www.attorneygeneral.jus.gov.on.ca/english/family/familyla.pdf

All kinds of people attended, all ages, races and plenty of women. My impression was that the large majority were very supportive. There were three respectful questions from feminists during the Q&A. More women are attending post-secondary education but the number of men hasn't decreased. More men take trades instead of post-secondary and make more money than a woman with a degree. New men's center should be called men's and trans center. There was a contingent from AVfM, GWW's attendance was re…

The lecture went very well. The lecture hall was packed, I counted about 112 people there. There was about 70 at the Nathanson and Young lecture. I asked one of the organizers about the absence of protesters. Apparently, they decided to protest the rally this morning instead. FYI, CAFE stated that because of the additional security fee, they raised six times that amount in donations over the weekend. Great job guys. I was there, AMA. Edit: this morning

The lecture went very well. The lecture hall was packed, I counted about 112 people there. There was about 70 at the Nathanson and Young lecture. I asked one of the organizers about the absence of protesters. Apparently, they decided to protest the rally tomorrow morning instead. FYI, CAFE stated that because of the additional security fee, they raised six times that amount in donations over the weekend. Great job guys.

Smooth as silk, there was one feminist there asking respectful questions about the growth of university enrollment and implying that the number of men attending post secondary hasn't decreased, just that the number of women have increased. Miles Groth answered it like a boss. He agreed, but shifted focus on the fact that the proportion of men is decreasing dramatically.

It is worth remembering that evidence suggests that marriage continues to be more beneficial for men than for women... It's not a matter of cause and effect but rather selection bias. Men who are less healthy and die younger are less likely to marry or stay married.

The “pay gap” is probably the most widely-cited example of supposed disadvantages faced by women today. It is also totally misleading, as it is only a snapshot of average yearly full-time incomes that does not account for overtime (about 90% male), type of work, or other non-discriminatory, voluntary factors. The Department of Labor recently funded a study that proved this and found the pay gap is caused by choices, not discrimination. http://www.consad.com/content/reports/Gender%20Wage%20Gap%20…

Personally, I'm more libertarian too, but I am quite interested in the marxist viewpoints of the MRM and would never throw them away since my first priority is men and not politics.

It's a theory, not fact. The contemporary feminist discourse tends to focus exclusively on the fact that important and influential roles in society are filled by men in a patriarchy, and use this observation to conclude that patriarchy is about male dominance and male power. Through this generalization, the power of a small subset of men, is taken to represent all men, without investigating whether other men really have any power.

The reason why there's a Feminist movement is because the vast majority of the world's cultures have placed gender roles on the populous and women were usually set in the subordinate role where they essentially were men's property. No, not property. Throughout the history of "patriarchal societies" women were treated as men's responsibility. Women were not treated like slaves in civilized society.

I work in traditionally male dominated industries and I have found that when people (men) start at the bottom and work their way up, they understand the business better and have more respect from the employees. For women to do the same thing in these industries, they would have to put in the time and effort by doing dirty and dangerous work. Most women aren't willing to do those types of work and want to start in the office which doesn't garner the same level of respect from the workers.

I can set an agenda of issues but one question that needs to be debated is "how does a man and his children escape from an abusive woman without being charged with kidnapping?" Also, I find the idea of crushing feminism and excluding them from academia and the shelter industry to be mere fantasy. I'm more of a pragmatist and the reality is that the system will need to be transformed gradually through negotiation. The question is, what is the end goal of how services should be operated.

“What is the appeal to “conservatives” of what appears to be a “liberal feminist” framing of this issue, with its use of activist rhetoric? Simply put, it provides a rationale for the further criminalizing of deviance and an expansion of the power of the criminal justice system.” http://www.mediaradar.org/docs/Dutton_Corvo-Transforming-flawed-policy.pdf

No problem. I have about 75 pages of quotes and links in my DV file alone. Edit: FYI, domestic homicides are ~1/4 to 1/3 men in official justice department statistics and that's not including the cases that women got off in "self-defense". Justice department statistics on domestic violence (non-homicide) will always be skewed, as men are socially and legally deterred from reporting domestic violence to the police.

How has the social aspect been effective? It has led to people apologizing for their bigotry. If you were active on AVfM, you would already know this.

Do you think a bunch of people lie about female DV to a random interviewer?

I'd like to get beyond the debate of arguing over statistics. Even if you accept that a minimum 15% of men are victims of domestic violence then it's still discrimination to exclude men from services and laws for domestic violence. That is akin to having an Occupational Health and Safety Act for Men only, since men are ~95% of workplace injuries.

I am just asking if anyone would be kind enough to explain why or how these variations in stats are possible.

as it would bring the abused spouse in contact with the abuser on a regular basis, and that was deemed to be harmful to the abused spouse. That has nothing to do with the presumption of shared custody. Such an issue is already a problem with the unequal status quo of primary custody.

The whole point of child support (when properly implemented) is so that the non-custodial parent pays an equal amount of money towards the care of the child that the custodial parent does Nonsense.

If s/he is a hazard to the kid, then s/he should pay and have limited contact. That's not what happens though. Momma can refuse to allow access and the family law courts will do nothing.
/r/MensRights20/12/12 11:05 PM

So long as the money is paid to the custodial parent, it doesn't matter what that parent does with it, so long as the kid is taken care of. It doesn't seem fair if the millionaire pays $750, but it's okay if momma spends most of it on herself? Feminists oppose equality in family law, huh? What are you citing? NOW and LEAF, two major feminist organizations have officially opposed equally shared parenting.
/r/MensRights20/12/12 11:04 PM

The problem is that judges treat parent unequally in the first place. Feminists oppose "equality" in family law. Doesn't seem right for a millionaire to stiff his/her kid and pay $750 a month. Doesn't seem right that momma hires a nanny to raise the kid and lives off child support.

I can see advantages and drawbacks to both.

I know that in Canada that ~95% of disputed custody cases are awarded to the mother. Other than that there is a severe lack of statistics. Current case precedent is that if joint custody is disputed then the judge will award primary custody to the primary caregiver (whoever works less hours outside the home - usually mother) Joint custody is only awarded when it is agreed by both parents.

The centre is shifted more to the left in Canada. A typical right wing Canadian is more like an American democrat.

There is, they are ahead of us with their 1 in 3 campaigns and mensheds. Even the UK is ahead of us. F4J is far more effective than any group in Canada.

Dunno, maybe there's a stronger reaction to social engineering, but if that were the case then I'd expect even more coming out of sweden and UK. Lots from Australia too for such a small country. More to the point, why does it seem that there are so few MRAs per capita in the good ol' USA?

He has been lauded as a traditionalist hero of anti-feminism by one or two people and trolls trolling. Lepine never had anything to do with men's rights, ever! http://www.torontosun.com/news/canada/2010/03/31/13429581-qmi.html

I share your concerns and I agree that a lot of posts don't belong here. This is not an organized community, there is no control over who comments and a very lax moderator policy.

You're not crazy but you're post is off topic and I'm downvoting it. Address the issue on threads you think aren't relevant. I'm doubtful that anything will ever be done since there seems to be a popular interest in a wider range of topics. You'll just have to be satisfied with sorting through a bunch of petty/questionable posts to find the ones that you like. How often are you involved in discussion here for anyone to take you seriously?

Normally sarcasm doesn't bother me, but when children die I'm just not in the mood for joking. I don't consider father's winning in court to be a success. Sole custody arrangements are always a tragedy for the children, especially so in this case.

2 years common law = married and liable for children that aren't even yours even if they already have two capable parents. The only difference (in Ontario at least) is that common law does not automatically give her 1/2 of your property (matrimonial home), only 1/2 of equity for period of cohabitation.

Why have mods? I'm not going to bother explaining since you're an obvious troll/sock puppet. They're doing a good job. They removed this post after I reported it.

I'm not making it a defense. Talking to the person who is offending you is merely the first step in resolving issues within a workplace. To start talking about it behind their back (gossip) and taking the issue outside the workplace will destroy the business and workplace relations and won't resolve anything. The problem is that "offense" is entirely subjective and depends on the individual. You gotta speak up and stop thinking that people can read your mind.

I don't see why that is relevant. I hate {insert your ethnicity} and I don't think its a big deal to joke about it. It had nothing to do with hate or ethnicity. Dude was making joking remarks about his own weight as well. Then tell me how well you take it, like a big man that you think you are. First step is to put on your big girl panties and tell him that those conversations are unacceptable.

You've missed an important step. Until you do that, it's not a big issue.
/r/MensRights03/12/12 05:30 PM

I understand. You haven't even bothered talking to him yet and are making a big issue out of something that is easily resolved.
/r/MensRights03/12/12 05:18 PM

I want to ask him to stop Then ask him! What the hell is the point of any further discussion if you haven't even taken this basic step? Yeah, you sound like a trouble maker.

Well, make that first step before you make a big issue over it and consider taking other actions. Yes, you are gossiping.
/r/MensRights03/12/12 04:52 PM

The problem is that you never even told your boss that it bothered you but you want to make a big legal issue over it. You're a trouble maker.
/r/MensRights03/12/12 04:50 PM

I think presenting him with a list that looks like it's ready for legal action is entirely missing the previous steps of actually talking about it and telling him it's unwanted. It's just going to create a bad work atmosphere and label OP as overreacting / complainer / liability.
/r/MensRights03/12/12 04:41 PM

That is the first step to resolve the issue. So far, your boss doesn't even know that it is an issue and probably doesn't think it's a big deal to joke about weight. You address the issue by talking about it. If you can't talk about it then write a letter. It's only an issue if it continues after that.

MRA's how did you react when you were on the receiving end of harassment? What did you do? How did you stop it? I told the person how I felt about it without gossiping behind their back and trying to make a legal issue over something so easily resolved by actually talking to them.
/r/MensRights03/12/12 04:37 PM

It always surprises me how people will bitch and complain (gossip) behind someone's back and never even bother to actually address the issue with that person.
/r/MensRights03/12/12 04:32 PM

If something is bothering you then you need to actually talk to your boss about it before going and complaining about it to others. This has nothing to do with mens rights.

The characterization "old" masculinity is false and their "new" masculinity (white ribbon campaign) is just old fashioned chivalry wrapped up in male disposability and biased feminist statistics.

In general yes, but the variation between individuals is greater. That means that those general / average observations are pretty much useless when applied to individuals.
/r/MensRights30/11/12 09:41 PM

I'm going to agree with you because I understand your point and I've read the research. This is true on average and in general. However, the variability between individuals is much greater than the average differences between sexes.

That's much like telling women to go start their own government and corporations if they want to be involved. The issue is still much bigger than that. DV is not or should not be a gender issue. If we truly want to address the issue as a society then we need to stop segregating people into groups and stereotyping them based on their sex.
