| 2 | Child Support is so unfair, if abortion was illegal then yes, it would be fair game, but being that abortion is very legal, child support is very unfair.This is an open forum, so feel free not to respond. I will argue though for others to see. These debates about reproductional rights are important, and we (as a society) have to talk about these issues. It's too important to just put our heads in the sand. And these things are happening. Unwanted children are born and somebody has to raise them, somebody has to pay for the cost of it. It can be argued that the child should not have born - i.e. abortion should happen if either parent is unwilling… | /r/MensRights | 07/10/20 10:34 AM |
| 1 | One of my teacher said that every researchers in "-ism" movement must not use their research as an advocacy for their ideologySorry I may be agressive, I think I didn't explain very well my point of view (english is not my first language). I understand your point though and I'm sorry if I bother you. You don't bother me, I enjoy a cultured discussion, even if opinions differ. And again, I agree with you in general, just see this phenomenon you describe a rather unconscious one, as opposed to that people do it on purpose (or genuinely hope so). In my opinion, the problem with some feminists researches is that they said … | /r/MensRights | 07/10/20 10:15 AM |
| 1 | One of my teacher said that every researchers in "-ism" movement must not use their research as an advocacy for their ideologyI meant this as a rethorical question, meaning the we should call out biased, invalid studies whenever we encounter them. | /r/MensRights | 07/10/20 10:03 AM |
| 0 | Child Support is so unfair, if abortion was illegal then yes, it would be fair game, but being that abortion is very legal, child support is very unfair.? You should be able to argue for your stance. Your inability is not my problem. Have a good day. | /r/MensRights | 07/10/20 01:28 AM |
| -1 | Child Support is so unfair, if abortion was illegal then yes, it would be fair game, but being that abortion is very legal, child support is very unfair.Women tend to take lower paying jobs than men. And why is that according to you? Just like a woman can opt out of being a Mother at any point during a pregnancy A woman can make decisions about her own body at any point in her life (including pregnancy). a man should be able to protect his Wallet. WTF? If you make a decision that has financial consequences, you can't deter responsibility. If you had dinner in a restaurant, you can't say that you just opt-out. You could have decided not to go t… | /r/MensRights | 07/10/20 01:00 AM |
| 1 | One of my teacher said that every researchers in "-ism" movement must not use their research as an advocacy for their ideologySpeaking as an academic. she said that an advocacy for an "-ism" movement is not scientific and that we must skeptical with so called expert on some issues. [...] she didn't recognize that scientific researchers (in feminism for example) are pretty biased. There is a difference between feminism as advocacy and feminism as a research area. Feminist advocates can be researchers but usually are not. Most feminist advocates do not conduct scientific research, write studies, teach students etc. Their… | /r/MensRights | 07/10/20 12:49 AM |
| 3 | Can we address the rape double standard?if a woman claims a man raped her, he goes to jail before an investigation Where does it happen? The conviction rate for rape cases is 3.3 percent (in the UK)!!!! Only 3 percent of all accused rapists (of either gender) were convicted. Three out of hundred. Where if a man proves he was raped, he has to pay child support Nobody should be raped, and those who are convicted of rape should not raise children. | /r/MensRights | 07/10/20 12:28 AM |
| -2 | Child Support is so unfair, if abortion was illegal then yes, it would be fair game, but being that abortion is very legal, child support is very unfair.Child support impacts men the most Because men tend to earn more and not tend to have custody, not because child support is against men. It is the men's child to the same extent it is the women's child. A child has costs, which the parents have to share since the child could not have been conceived without the consent of them (other than rape, which should be punished by law). You can’t tell men that they should’ve thought of child support before going inside a woman raw. But hell yeah. They wer… | /r/MensRights | 07/10/20 12:23 AM |
| 2 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.I said that male victims being excluded from rape victims is a bigger problem than the lack of strict false accusation laws for rape accusations. I know that you also mentioned gender neutral rape laws and I wanted to reiterate that I support those. I just pointed out that it is already a crime - so it’s not like you are free to accuse of someone of rape then laugh in your hand - at least in theory. I know that in practices this doesn’t really happen and that is one reason I mentioned how hard i… | /r/MensRights | 29/08/20 03:50 PM |
| 1 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.But even teenagers can be babysitters. In most countries, teenagers can work too (in my country from the age of 14). Also, the cost of a mistake is also usually quite high. If you fall asleep, your child may die. If you fall asleep during office work, nothing will happen other then your boss being angry. Of course, there are out-of-the-home jobs that require even more responsibility (multiple lives can be lost if you make a mistake for example an architect). I just want to point out that it is n… | /r/MensRights | 29/08/20 01:07 PM |
| 2 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.Because it is just as horrible as the crime. I think both are terrible, but not the same. Just as killing someone is not equal to falsely accuse someone of killing. Both are terrible and crime, but not equal. Our opinion can be of course different on that. As opposed to unintentionally false and benevolent? Not benevolent, but an accusation can be unintentionally false. For example, there is a difference if someone says they were raped, and probably by someone present at the time and accusing so… | /r/MensRights | 29/08/20 11:03 AM |
| 1 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.First, I'd like to thank you for the long and detailed answer, it helped me understand the situation better. A couple of notes: This is true that personal ambitions are crushed in this system for the greater good and this is especially true for poor girls. But what other options does she have? Also, social pressure works both ways, not just on females. I am aware that social pressure works both ways and men can also suffer from the consequences of this system. That is why I don't understand why … | /r/MensRights | 28/08/20 05:52 PM |
| 3 | Reddit is usually against this stance, but it's absolutely true: being pro-male rights usually does not mean you are anti-female rights, but being pro-female rights usually means you're anti-male rights.Thank you very, very much, I appreciate the effort that you put into that and provided us with so much important information, we need to make more awareness about. I admit that I was ignorant since I could not imagine how could someone discard the problems of one group based on the fact that the other group also has problems/has more serious problems. Especially for someone educated in gender issues and the feminist movement. | /r/MensRights | 28/08/20 10:55 AM |
| 6 | Why is it okay for older women to hook up with younger men, but if reversed that man is “disgusting” and “taking advantage of a young girl.”Not every workplace has it, mine has married couples as employees too :) | /r/MensRights | 27/08/20 11:01 PM |
| 13 | Reddit is usually against this stance, but it's absolutely true: being pro-male rights usually does not mean you are anti-female rights, but being pro-female rights usually means you're anti-male rights.I don't even understand what woman's rights and men's rights are. There should be human rights, which depend on circumstances that are relevant to the question. To ensure human rights are inclusive, we should look out for groups with particular needs, who face particular problems etc., like women, men, minority, children, elderly, etc, etc, etc... Feminist and men's rights movements should exit to help focus, research, articulate, and solves the problems these groups are facing related to their … | /r/MensRights | 27/08/20 10:49 PM |
| 1 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.Housekeeping is completely different today due to the technological advancements, we don't have to walk 15 kilometres for firewood&water everyday. But work conditions are also different, aren't they? One type of work can be very different from another, e.g. being a miner is much more exhausting and difficult than being an office guard. Some paid work is much less work than tending for multiple children 24/7. Some are more difficult/tiresome/dangerous etc. of course. So housework may be less work… | /r/MensRights | 27/08/20 08:30 PM |
| 1 | Constantly praising fathers while never recognizing financially successful men pushes us toward the 1950s womens roleI think that from childhood, men often get the message that they should be successful, earn money, support their family, and are condemned if they didn't. For some men, this expectation of performance is physiologically damaging. So I think that for many men being successful is not a choice but an expectation. I feel that women are encouraged to be successful, but men are expected. And that's why to me a message about encouraging men to be successful is not that exciting. Also, men choosing to p… | /r/MensRights | 27/08/20 08:06 PM |
| 1 | Constantly praising fathers while never recognizing financially successful men pushes us toward the 1950s womens roleBut your post praising a successful man is not less popular because this sub is actively doesn't want to support men succeeding, it's just not as interesting since we get this message constantly.

| 1 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.How is taking care of your own Family&House a job? Without money, there would be no food to cook or a house to clean. Supporting more than 1 person for the rest of your life is a massive undertaking and that is why they FORCE Men to marry. Working men are also doing it for their own family - according to that logic jobs of the men are not work either. You say that household chores are not a job, because women are doing that for their own family, but when you talk about men you say that they work… | /r/MensRights | 27/08/20 02:47 PM |
| 1 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.Considering how Men are still traditional breadwinners in a lot of 3rd world with Women staying at home, dowry seems like a Monterey concession/coercion from the bride's family. I don't see what's inherently sexist in a system where the Bride's family is making up for the fact that Wife isn't going to bring any income to the Family. So you are saying that domestic work, cooking, cleaning, taking care of children and the elderly is nothing? It is not income in a traditional sense, but still, the … | /r/MensRights | 27/08/20 12:15 PM |
| 1 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.First, I'd like to admit that I am not very knowledgeable in dowry culture and would like to learn more. But I have a few questions. Western culture may focuses more on individuality. Here in east, we give more importance to family as a whole rather than individual wife and husband. Giving importance to family over yourself is not a problem in itself. It is a problem if you have no choice. So I am okay if someone wants to sacrifice their own happiness for their family but I just don't think it i… | /r/MensRights | 27/08/20 11:58 AM |
| 1 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.Thanks, I thought that you mean that in Bihar, somehow UN has a responsibility in the abduction of men. | /r/MensRights | 26/08/20 10:58 PM |
| 1 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.A couple of follow up questions: Why should false accusations be punishable EQUALLY as a corresponding conviction? Isn't this irrational a bit? I think false accusations should be punished if intentionally false and malevolent but for me, it does not seem plausible that someone actually committing rape should get the same punishment than that of perjury. Also, how would you prove that an accusation was intentionally false? It is something very hard to tell and subjective and could be used as a w… | /r/MensRights | 26/08/20 10:18 PM |
| 0 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.Sexism is a prejudice/discrimination based on gender. Dowry system is a discriminatory system based on gender since daughters can't inherit property and sons can't get a dowry, no matter their personal preferences. Also, the daughters don't even 'get' the dowry, because it is given to the husband and his family, not to the daughter herself and she cannot freely decide what to do with that, she can only 'get' it if she agrees to marry someone their parents accept (and tbh in most cases choose).

| 1 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.Does anyone know about reliable statistics regarding the topic? I would be interested in how many men are concerned, what areas, social status, etc. Also, does anyone know about respectable research regarding the topic? | /r/MensRights | 26/08/20 09:53 PM |
| 7 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.Not exactly. They say that the data on boys is scarce so they exclude boys from this inquiry because there is no data about them. It is still problematic though. First, why there is no data on boys? The paper only gives vague possible reasons for "design, error or omission", which is troubling. By design means that they deliberately collected data only on boys - so they deliberately decided that the research covers only women. I think it is not problematic in itself, but then they should clearly… | /r/MensRights | 26/08/20 09:51 PM |
| 29 | In Bihar (India) 9 men per day are abducted for forced marriage.Actually, in a 2012, the UN published a thematic report on servile marriage and in it stated that men are also affected and can be victims. The violations that occur within servile marriage cannot be viewed only as acts of violence against women and girls because, although the overwhelming majority of those in servile marriage are girls and women, boys and men are also victims. Owing to gender prejudices, it is often easier for boys and men to leave forced marriages, live as divorcees, remarry a… | /r/MensRights | 26/08/20 06:17 PM |
