| 3 | Texas bill would fine men $100 each time they masturbateThese are called false equivalencies. | /r/MensRights | 20/03/17 10:57 PM |
| 9 | How to help boys do better at school: stop giving them a leg-up in the outside worldImplicit in this reasoning is that schools are biased towards girls by their female teachers who actively (if possibly unconsciously) work to hold boys back. Hang your heads in shame, women teachers and female students, you with your wicked, hard-working, sitting-still ways, you are ruining our energetic, high-spirited boys. Yeah but men are definitely all colluding together to police some sort of patriarchy, right? | /r/MensRights | 17/08/16 02:34 PM |
| 6 | I'm a feminist and I just got banned from r/feminism by expressing concern over free speechIt's kind of funny that a good faith post concerned with free speech would result in a ban. It seems like r/mensrights has a stronger commitment against censorship, even though I'm quite sure trolls can still get banned for trolling here too much. | /r/MensRights | 05/08/16 04:01 PM |

| 2 | If there was no Feminism there would be no need for Men's Rights.The men's rights movement has lost its direction. It seems to have forgotten that the only reason we exist is because feminism exists. We are not here to help women get equality in society, we are here to ensure women don't become more equal than us, and we are failing miserably. facepalm That's not what the MRM should be about, honestly. And I don't get the sense that the majority of MRAs would agree with you. | /r/MensRights | 26/06/16 02:27 PM |

| 8 | Woman punches (8 times), slaps (11 times), and kicks (2 times) man over 55 seconds. Man finally punches back (5 times) over 6 seconds. Title of story: "Shocking video shows man punching girlfriend to the floor."If their positions were reversed - he was slapping her around and then she beat the shit out of him and attacked a witness after they'd apparently reconciled - I doubt he'd be charged, too. Really? I'd bet he'd be charged still. Either way I agree he can't make a claim of self defense. That was assault. | /r/MensRights | 10/06/16 04:03 PM |

| 16 | Apparently men are lesser if they take non-white-collar jobs“While we do sometimes fight about finances, at the end of the day, I’m really glad to be the primary breadwinner. I like being in control, calling the shots and deciding what color the dining room should be painted. Would I have that control if I were married to a corporate attorney? I don’t think so.” lol | /r/MensRights | 07/06/16 04:26 PM |
| 1 | Polls show Trump has a huge lead among men; Hilary a large lead among women - 2016 will be the year of gender politicsYes. Still, after the Bush Jr. years, I think it's an important concern. | /r/MensRights | 19/05/16 06:54 PM |
| 2 | Polls show Trump has a huge lead among men; Hilary a large lead among women - 2016 will be the year of gender politicsOn the one hand - Trump's lack of experience and the enormous concerns with what he'll do in foreign policy makes him as president really scary. On the other hand, Hilary has a track record of just doing whatever the democrats think is popular at the time - she is the establishment - and she's a fraud each time she plays the woman card to distance herself from the establishment to voters. I'm not happy with the decision, needless to say. | /r/MensRights | 19/05/16 02:11 PM |

| 4 | Woman recieves standing ovation for cutting husbands dick offSame here. The Sharon Osbourne / The Talk incident was the thing that pushed me over the edge on gender issues. With an empathy gap like that, it's the one thing that gets me especially inflamed, it's absolutely disgraceful yet you never hear about it in gender studies academia or in the mainstream media. | /r/MensRights | 22/03/16 01:13 AM |

| 3 | Feminist Is Troubled By Lack of Male Attendance at "All About Women"Men - who largely run the criminal justice system - should know, as Orange Is The New Black writer Piper Kerman revealed, that women get handed harsher sentences than men for minor crimes What??? There has been plenty of research that has demonstrated a huge sentencing gap that discriminates against men. | /r/MensRights | 11/03/16 04:33 AM |
| 4 | Feminists try and claim that if you don't date a feminist man, you'll be sexist because he'll make you sexist and have internalized misogyny"'Hostile sexism' is defined by endorsing derogatory beliefs about women and the idea that 'women seek to gain power by getting control over men.' Isn't that what they're kind of implying men are doing to women? And also, is it not just the truth that there are women who do exactly this in some cases? | /r/MensRights | 05/03/16 02:56 PM |
| 1 | Saw it coming... "weak men" are to be blamed for not protecting European women against alleged Muslin attacksYou talk as if men have an obligation to protect women from violent immigrants. I didn't say anything that implied that. Just that what happened to them was bad. And I agree that it would be good if they too combated misandry. But I also don't cast a shadow over them personally because of things they may or may not have done. Edit: I would think you're pretty much a rad-fem in reverse if your going to fight misandry with misogyny. And having no sympathy for some women because some different wome… | /r/MensRights | 06/02/16 02:02 AM |
| 2 | Saw it coming... "weak men" are to be blamed for not protecting European women against alleged Muslin attacksZero sympathy for those who suffer, if they have actively engaged in protesting or campaigning against that which they now demand. I'm sure there were women who were attacked who weren't misandrists though. Probably a pretty good percentage of them. But I'd be sympathetic even to those who are misandrists too, just on a human level. | /r/MensRights | 05/02/16 11:56 PM |
| 12 | Woman statutory rapes 50 times child schoolboy. She is sentenced at 10 days worth of community service. Imagine the sentence if the genders were reversedThe judge said the sentence was "tempered" by her family situation (ie she's a single mother). In my personal opinion that shouldn't be taken into account for serious crimes like child sex abuse, because it does a huge disservice to the victim. I think it also would do a disservice to the woman's children to be left in custody with a parent that would do something like that. | /r/MensRights | 17/01/16 03:23 AM |
| 5 | 13 Ways White Male Privilege Shows Up as Early as Elementary School (Yes, really)Yeah, that’s true on aggregate. White's are advantaged in our society as a group. No arguments there. Not really a major issue, but I don’t doubt there’s overrepresentation. Doesn’t really matter unless you’ve already been taught another method or it is demonstrably better for some people to learn other methods. Teaching several different ways to do the same thing is a time sink and could confuse people. Non-point, because white boys can’t really do that either. There are lots of Asian males in … | /r/MensRights | 31/12/15 04:06 PM |
| 1 | (Mostly) female response to story about man who receives alimony check with *adult child support* written in the memoWell best of luck to you and all of your children! Don't have any of my own yet at nearly 27, hey maybe someday. But it's cool that you can recognize this stuff. Personally, I come from a very liberal, feminist-y community and didn't hear people openly discuss anti-male imbalances in society more than maybe once in a blue moon. So it took me a while to learn the full extent of some of the statistics and how wide spread these problems can be. | /r/MensRights | 27/12/15 02:14 AM |

That HE did worse during their marriage? What if SHE was the abusive one? And these notes are just the continuation of HER abuse? It doesn't matter, WE don't know! We know what HER actions were, and they were WRONG. She is the one who has admitted to feeling humiliated, as she rightfully should. Well I'm glad you can recognize this! hahah.

| 1 | I like this sub, but I find it gets me angry and riled up. Was browsing it last night, then saw this on FB this morning. I think I managed to remain calm.It seems quite obvious to me that it's because if the man is being rejected for that reason than they would take it better because it's not anything about them personally, rather just a product of circumstances that they're being rejected. | /r/MensRights | 06/09/15 03:37 PM |

We are going to have pay equity for women"I think all in all he's about as good a candidate as there is, but it is discouraging that he's propagating the flawed pay gap statistics. | /r/MensRights | 29/08/15 03:36 PM |

| 8 | Is it possible that unsuccessful male suicide attempts are less likely to be reported, just like every other male issue, and that female attempts aren't actually multiple times more common?What you have to remember about "attempts" is that it's not the number of people that have attempted that are counted, but the number of individual incidents. An actual suicide can only be successfully completed once, where as one person can rack up 20 suicide attempts and it would count the same as if 20 people attempted suicide once. It's not all that telling of a statistic. | /r/MensRights | 09/08/15 02:07 PM |

And I highly doubt I'm the only women who thinks this way Feminist isn't the same as women, just pointing that out. Having said that, I don't think all or even most feminists would specifically support this. The only problematic thing is that many generally seem to want to pretend like this kind of thing never really happens or is too rare to bother talking about. Which is pretty flawed imo. | /r/MensRights | 05/08/15 12:27 PM |
| 24 | Two female MMA fighters hold down and brutally beat up a guy outside a nightclub together because a woman claimed he touched her. No evidence he attacked them and neither have been banned or reprimanded by the league or police. Hypocrisy at it's finest.If a woman grabbed a guy's ass (does happen, has happened to me personally) and spit in his face when he told her she couldn't do that... And he beat her up... Would anyone really try to paint him as a hero? Or even slightly justified? Even if he wasn't a trained fighter. | /r/MensRights | 29/07/15 03:28 PM |
| 5 | Where have all the good men gone?What also makes pre-adulthood something new is its radical reversal of the sexual hierarchy. Among pre-adults, women are the first sex. They graduate from college in greater numbers (among Americans ages 25 to 34, 34% of women now have a bachelor's degree but just 27% of men), and they have higher GPAs. As most professors tell it, they also have more confidence and drive.

I'm a full believer in the need for a men's rights movement but this specific issue really makes me question if it's viable just nowOk, here's the deal (as I see it, anyways). The MRM can attract reactionary white men who are sick of being told that they have such an advantage over everyone else. Hostility towards bringing race into the equation is because these people are frustrated. Take for example the way modern, popular feminism looks at things. They like to talk about "intersectionality". The disadvantages that women, minorities, homosexual, or trans people face etc. But if you really look at the way they talk about it… | /r/MensRights | 22/07/15 01:44 AM |

(Supporting whipping posts for wife beaters)I don't think whipping posts for wife beaters 100 years ago should be something that men's rights focuses it's attention on today, but it does counter the revisionist history that it was acceptable and allowed for men to beat women in that era. It's useful to keep in mind in the face of false claims, but that's all really. | /r/MensRights | 01/07/15 04:57 PM |

Kudos to Judith Shulevitz and the NY Times.“Person A and Person B are on a date and walking down the street. Person A, feeling romantically and sexually attracted, timidly reaches out to hold B’s hand and feels a thrill as their hands touch.

| 1 | I am a feminist. AMA, and I'll ask you something in return. Yes, I know what I'm doing.I certainly do. Personally I believe it's at the heart of almost all of the problems specific to men. There's plenty about feminism I actually agree with. Some feminists do acknowledge that the empathy gap is a real problem, but the majority either ignore it altogether, and some deny it. If it became a significant priority for feminism to tackle and took that really seriously I might consider calling myself one again. | /r/MensRights | 27/06/15 01:08 AM |

Looking at the study, let's careful examine TRP's reading of it.A certain amount of clingy-ness if you actually like someone and have LTR hopes can be a good thing.

This experiment would tend to suggest the reverse.

For instance, you'd never have a panel of famous men on a nationally televised talk show, in front of a live male au… | /r/MensRights | 18/08/14 09:37 PM |

It's the same thing as the whole poison m&ms comment, it comes from such a place of moral superiority where women are never "toxic". The other issue is that it reduces women to a non sentient form of life that is acted upon but cannot act.

Not necessarily just nice to her, but also nice to people from all walks of life.

And men are still most of those who are in charge. On the other hand women as a group seem to generate more attention. An erroneous assumption that many females make is that men having all of the power results in males being better represented.

| 10 | "Rape Culture" article by feminist man who was falsely accused, believed, and now using fairness as an example of misogynyOf course my friends would be more inclined to believe me due to our pre-existing relationship, but why I am so unquestionably trustworthy, and why is S so untrustworthy? ...The answer comes down, fundamentally, to sexism. Good lord, that's a jump and a half. Here's a thought... Maybe they were calling her a "crazy bitch" because she is a habitual liar. | /r/MensRights | 12/03/14 03:17 PM |
| 4 | Just Smith shreds misandrist BS about the "friend zone" (scroll down)How come there is this assumption with nice guys, that they're always only nice because they want sex? What if a guy who is genuinely nice to most/all people (including those he has NO romantic interest in) wants to be in a relationship with a woman who only considers him a friend? This whole "nice guy" theory seems to hinge on the fact that the guy was being disingenuous with her, which could be true in some cases but certainly not all. Also there's a comment by "schaka" that really nits the na… | /r/MensRights | 12/03/14 04:34 AM |
| 2 | This has been exploding on Facebook. Ok, how about just "bitchy"?By middle school, girls are less interested in leading than boys—a trend that continues into adulthood. Yeah? Then how come female students the freaking majority of college graduates? I swear they probably just conducted some biased coded survey to make the results say what they want them to say. The reality is that the opposite of their claim is true, and it's clear as day when you look at real world statistics. | /r/MensRights | 10/03/14 11:54 PM |
| 3 | Millenial 'journalism' ("Found comment on web, must report!") - "Read These Men's Rights Activists Try to Defend Upskirting on Reddit. Seriously"In any case, I think it's amazing that she uses a comment with a -89 rating to represent the voice of MRAs. | /r/MensRights | 10/03/14 09:36 PM |
| 2 | SNL manages to misinterpret MRA arguments, shame man who are less physically attractive than others by implying they are somehow lesser, says that all MRAs are only MRAs because of bad love experienceAt least the sketch is being recognized for it's lacking in humor. http://www.complex.com/pop-culture/2014/03/lena-dunham-snl-recap | /r/MensRights | 10/03/14 01:48 AM |
| 6 | To those who have arrived here for the first time because of the SNL sketch... Welcome. Please join the discussion.Maybe sometimes, but that doesn't mean there isn't legitimacy to many of the problems addressed on here. The fact that there are jackasses who post here and down-vote irrationally doesn't mean everything posted here is a joke. That's the argument that the outside world tends to use, typecast MRA like in the video, to disqualify all of the concerns. | /r/MensRights | 09/03/14 04:33 PM |
| 1 | Man who manipulated his contraceptive in order to "make a baby" guilty of "Sexual assault"There should definitely be a different charge for this. Assault is the wrong word for what happened. But somehow I have the feeling a woman who poked holes in a condom to get herself pregnant from a man wouldn't be getting 18 months in jail, but rather a monthly check from said man instead. | /r/MensRights | 08/03/14 05:58 PM |
| 2 | Can we talk about men's issues without turning it into a debate about who has it worse? Jane Powell blogs. (Runs a suicide prevention site).This is the thing about Feminism that irks me. The movement itself only deals with female issues. I think some of what they do has been commendable in some respect, but they just simply don't seem to care when its men who are disadvantaged. As most here already know, men are disadvantaged in the education system, the legal system, and are disproportionately victims of suicide and violent crime. Where's the outrage? Society views men in pretty messed up ways, the example I always come back to is … | /r/MensRights | 07/03/14 05:08 AM |
| 8 | Boston Area Rape Crisis Center: “Sexual violence doesn’t have to involve actual touching” - then what isn't?It should definitely be against the law. Violence is the wrong word to describe it, but I'm not going to stand behind this guy's "right" to do that either. | /r/MensRights | 06/03/14 03:46 PM |
| 3 | I'm a woman, and I want to ask you about circumcisionTo answer the first question, I suppose I just don't know what being uncut is like. If anything was done to me that left me unable to perform or have a dissatisfying romantic life I would be beyond upset about it. But since I still can perform and enjoy sex and no women I've been with have had any issue with it, I don't really miss my foreskin. I know no other way. To the second point, I think you're probably right. Just because I'm not personally upset about being cut doesn't mean that the way … | /r/MensRights | 05/03/14 06:51 PM |
| 1 | I'm a woman, and I want to ask you about circumcisionI'm probably in the minority here, but I don't care too much that I was cut at birth. I'm perfectly satisfied with what I have and as far as I know the women I've been with have been too. But for the last question... I guess I don't feel the need to complain about women I don't fancy (physically). It's not like I'm going to end up being intimate with someone I have no attraction to. Women are allowed to have their own preferences, but I'm not gonna gain tons of respect for a woman who I hear com… | /r/MensRights | 05/03/14 05:22 PM |
| 2 | We are not this!This is so terrible off the mark, it's not right. When people start thinking being born male makes you inherently better as a person than being born female, they shouldn't be taken seriously by any of us. That's just Valerie Solanas in reverse. | /r/MensRights | 05/03/14 04:56 PM |
| 12 | 11 Powerful Messages From The #AlcoholIsNotConsent CampaignInteresting about the inclusion of numbers 5 and 7 made it into the list. Male victims and especially female perpetrators are almost always completely ignored in this sort of thing. Good for them for actually briefly mentioning the truth, that anyone can be a victim or perpetrator. | /r/MensRights | 05/03/14 04:44 PM |
| 2 | "In ordinary life we often think of women as being more cooperative and friendly with each other than men are, but this is not true when hierarchy enters the picture," (x-post from /r/science)Women have more barriers? In academia??? You do realize women are getting almost 60% of bachelors degrees and over 60% of post graduate degrees right? In other words, they're doing disproportionately well in school. | /r/MensRights | 05/03/14 04:05 AM |
| 10 | Look at the product that this guy worked on. His wife left him and only came back when he was successful. The women he asked did not help him and even tried to hinder him. Who benefited from his work?It's good that he did help women/really his community as a whole. I think it's a great story and this man is pretty exceptional. Especially considering he did all of this without education. But it's also a shit deal that the cost of his success was that he lost his family and was kicked out of his village. Why should his wife who didn't support him through the hard times - no even went so far as to leave him - get to walk back into his life and share in the success? She clearly didn't care about… | /r/MensRights | 04/03/14 04:25 PM |
| 5 | Conor Oberst tries to clear his name after false rape claims. Feminst tell him: "vilifying discussion of sexual assault by filing a lawsuit only adds to the problem of under-reporting that enables sexual assault to proliferate at alarming rates." Truth = Vilification.Why are they standing up for this woman who is clearly in the wrong? I don't think it does anything to "empower" actual victims. And what the hell do they expect him to do instead? Just sit back and accept being accused of this? | /r/MensRights | 27/02/14 05:13 PM |
| 1 | "If A Man Hits A Woman, The Man Is At Fault. If A Woman Hits A Man, The Man Is Still At Fault" -Anthropology TeacherI don't fault him for saying that he would hit a man back and not a woman, it's this guys choice whether or not he defends himself, who he feels threatened by, or what he should do in that situation. I might do the same (of course depending on the circumstance). However, saying it is the fault of the man if a woman hits him is not okay. It's insulting and it's actually a form of victim blaming, oddly enough. | /r/MensRights | 26/02/14 10:10 PM |

| 2 | Swedish newspaper: men shouldn't be taller than women and the only reason they are is because of discriminationOf course the tinfoil hat wearing voice in the back of my head is already whispering that Sweden is preparing to start treating teenage boys with estrogen. It's a crazy idea but I wouldn't be surprised if it hasn't already been seriously proposed at some point. I could definitely picture someone having made an argument for that. On the basis that it will make boys/young men "less aggressive" or something similarly insulting. | /r/MensRights | 26/02/14 08:07 PM |
| 23 | Swedish newspaper: men shouldn't be taller than women and the only reason they are is because of discriminationIt's because of hormones, not discrimination. One of the effects of estrogen is that causes growth plates to close, and obviously females have a lot more estrogen than males. This is such a non issue and whoever wrote the article obviously doesn't know the first thing about basic endocrinology. | /r/MensRights | 26/02/14 04:48 AM |
| 3 | It's BeYOUtiful Week at my high school.That's true, there is more pressure on them women/girls to look good. While I do believe there is a lot more pressure on men to look good than many women realize (probably due to it being not as much as their own) I wouldn't argue against your assertion. But to play devil's advocate here... Don't many women complain about getting male attention? Feminists often complain about it, anyways. | /r/MensRights | 20/02/14 04:01 AM |
| 35 | Women complain that men are failing to protect them from violent crimes.I mean, what is it that she wants men to do about this? In her mind, what am I supposed to be doing differently to properly protect women? Does she want me to follow a woman around late at night to make sure nobody hurts her? Sounds like a good way to get the cops called on you, and undoubtedly arrested. If men collectively had the power to stop murder, we would've already done so a long time ago. Even if we were all corrupt self serving pigs, we'd have plenty of motivation to end it given that … | /r/MensRights | 19/02/14 05:17 PM |
| 2 | Feminists at University of Maryland post men's names as potential rapists.Obviously this is an old story, but I would imagine that there are legal boundaries that must have been crossed. If I was one of those students I would definitely want who ever was responsible to face some sort of consequences. | /r/MensRights | 16/02/14 05:44 AM |
| 2 | What issue is your highest priority as an MRA and why?I've never officially labeled myself an "MRA" but I do feel quite strongly about some of the MRM issues. The biggest I think is the empathy gap, because I think that's at the root of a lot of problems men face. It's also super annoying how men's rights is taken as a joke by the mainstream while feminism is viewed as untouchable and can do no wrong. | /r/MensRights | 15/02/14 03:53 AM |

In contrast, nearly half of the women – 48.9 percent – wanteSeriously.
