1	Apparently Dan Savage supports to the "pornification" of our culture, which contributes to rape culture on a "massive scale". I was being rational. You made it personal and a little bit crazy.	/r/MensRights	26/12/10 04:22 AM
1	Apparently Dan Savage supports to the "pornification" of our culture, which contributes to rape culture on a "massive scale". Dude persecution complex.	/r/MensRights	25/12/10 05:21 AM
0	Apparently Dan Savage supports to the "pornification" of our culture, which contributes to rape culture on a "massive scale". So if the fringe crazies control the movement it would be more productive to align yourself with those you consider "sane" rather than to argue with the psychos, who you're not going to convert anyway. It seems you want to be angry, not actually solve the problem.	/r/MensRights	23/12/10 08:56 PM
0	Apparently Dan Savage supports to the "pornification" of our culture, which contributes to rape culture on a "massive scale". What I'm saying is, insane blogs are not real life. Just like how no one listens to the 9/11 is an inside job people except for other people with 9/11 is an inside job blogs. This is the same mindset that says all Muslims are terrorists. If that's how you're doing things, okay, but I just wanted to let you know you're wrong.	/r/MensRights	23/12/10 08:12 PM

1	IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you don't trust the person you're sleeping with to tell the truth about birth control, you shouldn't be sleeping with them. You're more likely to be raped by a friend than a stranger, and you're more likely to have sex without a condom when you're in a relationship and think you're safe.	/r/MensRights	23/12/10 04:41 PM
2	Apparently Dan Savage supports to the "pornification" of our culture, which contributes to rape culture on a "massive scale". The majority of women, which would be a third of the population of the united states.	/r/MensRights	23/12/10 04:40 PM
1	Apparently Dan Savage supports to the "pornification" of our culture, which contributes to rape culture on a "massive scale". You are only reading the batshit crazy feminist blogs and not spending time with real women. Make real life friends.	/r/MensRights	23/12/10 04:40 PM
4	Apparently Dan Savage supports to the "pornification" of our culture, which contributes to rape culture on a "massive scale". That person is batshit crazy. I hope you don't think that's what a feminist is.	/r/MensRights	23/12/10 01:33 AM
2	IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you don't trust the person you're sleeping with to tell the truth about birth control, you shouldn't be sleeping with them. Sex has nothing to do with morality. What's stupid about having a good time with someone you just met? If you're sober, at a safe place, and using a condom, it's safer than driving a car during a snowstorm.	/r/MensRights	22/12/10 03:07 PM
3	IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you don't trust the person you're sleeping with to tell the truth about birth control, you shouldn't be sleeping with them. I'm not asking them to justify my beliefs; I'm presenting my beliefs as a counterpoint to the original argument.	/r/MensRights	21/12/10 11:55 PM
3	IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you don't trust the person you're sleeping with to tell the truth about birth control, you shouldn't be sleeping with them. STDs are a health issue, not a morality issue. I want to have sex. With a condom there is X% of something negative happening. I'm willing to assume X% risk. I don't know the statistics (or how to find some so specific), but I'd bet fatality rates for driving a car are greater than fatality rates for sex with a condom.	/r/MensRights	21/12/10 11:55 PM
7	IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you don't trust the person you're sleeping with to tell the truth about birth control, you shouldn't be sleeping with them. But why not? I've had a few one-night stands with people I barely knew, and it was safe and fun. I'm an adult. Why is that wrong?	/r/MensRights	21/12/10 11:08 PM
1	IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you don't trust the person you're sleeping with to tell the truth about birth control, you shouldn't be sleeping with them. I disagree with this. People are not required to only have sex with decent, honest people who they love and trust. If I want to fuck a stranger at a bar, I will. I'll use a condom, of course, but I'm not going to require they meet my parents, submit to a polygraph, and provide two forms of ID before our one-night stand. A one-night stand doesn't make you a bad person.	/r/MensRights	21/12/10 11:06 PM

I didn't say end wars, I said feminism would encourage gender equality in the military, which is has already done historically, you're welcome. "Deadbeat dads" imply men who abandon their children. You're sticking up for men who abandon their children? Legally, there is no default custody to women, and NOW didn't advocate for that. Legally, yeah, fathers without at least half custody have to provide for their children by giving money to the parent with over half custody. If the amount of child s…	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 11:53 PM

1	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. Actually, that has happened. At one point in history, women couldn't serve at all, and some women lobbied to change that. Same with the combat zone assignments. This all happened a long time ago.	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 11:48 PM
1	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. So if I have a job, don't take money from a man, live independently, and mentor other women to do the same, I'm helping the crazy feminists you dislike, therefore I'm a crazy feminist?	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 11:47 PM
0	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. My point is anyone can be crazy and call themselves a feminist. I try to work with men and get called names for advocating gender equality. Why is it acceptable to dislike all feminists? I'm pro-choice and I dislike people protesting outside Planned Parenthood. That doesn't mean I vocally dislike all Christians. Just the crazy ones.	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 11:46 PM
1	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. So me being harassed by a man means I should just inform the authorities, right? No feminism needed? Then a woman trying to get excessive alimony out of a man is a legal issue. Inform the judge. No "men's rights" needed. Both groups need advocacy.	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 11:43 PM

0	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. I didn't say feminism would stop war; I said solving gender inequality will mean men won't feel pressured to join the military to prove their "manliness".	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 11:39 PM
0	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. And if feminism has so many different definitions, then it's impossible to dislike "feminism", as it can't even be defined.	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 11:38 PM

1	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. There are plenty of people, male and female, who shouldn't be around children, and that's when other people (father, mothers, and social services) "fight" for custody. If a woman is lying, that's not a feminist issue, that's a legal issue.	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 11:35 PM
0	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. I meant men shouldn't be pressured to join the military if they knock up a girl right out of high school and don't have other skills. Gender equality means he doesn't have to be the "provider" and risk his life to fulfill this stereotype.	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 01:00 AM
5	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. There's a clear double standard for sexuality. Men are encouraged to be sexual, and women are told if they do they're sluts. Men can be promiscuous, but then they're told that every move can lead to a false date rape charge. Women are told to look pretty and show cleavage, but never actually put out. This comes from parents, schools, religious groups, the media, everywhere. Both men and women come out of this fucked in the head. But if we move toward more gender equality, men don't have to be al…	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 12:58 AM
-3	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. But you're generalizing all women into a group of "radicals" who want to take over the world while also staying at home baking pies until such time as we can steal all your money. It makes us all look like psychos. Most women are not psychos.	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 12:55 AM
-2	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. Okay, but most of this I didn't say, so why are you replying to me with this? The only one I agree with is that feminism is about gender equality. Everyone I know who practices feminism does it for the equality of both genders. "Fighting sexism against women and ignoring sexism against men is not fighting for equality" I don't do this and I don't know anyone who does this. "Women need more rights so there is equality" I don't say this and I don't know anyone who says this. You're demonizing femi…	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 12:52 AM

I'm interested in discussion. Why do men have integrity but you think women don't?

3	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. Women are brainwashed to think only bad girls are sexual, so gender equality could lead to women who want more sex and are a lot more fun at bars.	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 12:21 AM

-1	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. I'm not nitpicking over words, I'm saying you're generalizing and it's unfair. I'm 30 and know many divorced women, as family, friends, and as boyfriends' exes (who I have no reason to say nice things about). I have never known a woman who lied about abuse, fought for custody that wasn't in the child's best interest, or try to get excessive money out of the divorce. So who is this "most women" you're talking about?	/r/MensRights	10/12/10 12:16 AM
0	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. My original point was that feminism means gender equality, which benefits both genders. So if women are not expected to be dainty homemakers, men shouldn't be expected to me "manly" and "not show weakness". I got off the subject, but that's my main point.	/r/MensRights	09/12/10 10:15 PM
1	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. Almost all my examples were job-related, so they had to do with how I'm being evaluated and promoted at my job. This isn't about emotions, and suggesting I'm getting weepy is a gender stereotype, same as "men aren't fit for custody". You're doing the same thing to me you're crying over me doing to you.	/r/MensRights	09/12/10 10:14 PM

3	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. I identify as bi, I share porn with guys I date, I'll sit in a bar and check out the girls who walk by. Every man I've dated in the past year has shared with me pictures of his ex or the other conquests. I have better dirty jokes than most men and I can handle a poly relationship better than most men. And I'm not unusual. More women than you know want to be treated differently.	/r/MensRights	09/12/10 10:09 PM
-1	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. Sorry, that's what happened. I made more money than he did for ten years, by design, not because he couldn't make more money. I wanted my husband, a person with artistic dreams, to have a life without traditional male gender "provider" roles. The job I wanted allowed us to do this. He wasn't ashamed of not being "manly" enough to take care of his wife.	/r/MensRights	09/12/10 10:05 PM
-4	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. I know what it's from; that's why I said it's a literary allusion. We're not talking about radical feminists. Mainstream feminists are, historically, for gender equality, not female superiority. If you meet a feminist who claims otherwise, they're wrong. And Sara Mead isn't spokesperson for feminists. Most feminists are not radicals, and aren't asking for additional rights.	/r/MensRights	09/12/10 09:59 PM
-3	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. You're generalizing a negative thing that some women do so that it applies to "most" women. Women have integrity as well. When "I dislike my ex" turns into "all women are evil" you're exchanging prejudice against men for prejudice against women and perpetuating gender equality.	/r/MensRights	09/12/10 09:54 PM

2	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. Real feminists dislike women who don't make their own money or act like princesses.

4	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. Most of the mothers I know are working class, and had to deal with unpaid leave as well. If we want longer, paid leave that's an issue for both genders. Under the FMLA, both genders get leave.	/r/MensRights	09/12/10 07:35 PM
-8	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. I didn't come here, I saw this post browsing the main page, and it was a question, so I came here to answer it. Not trying to start a fight. I'm all for rational discussion. You're saying men get screwed over in divorces? I went to school and got a good job while married. When I got divorced I didn't ask for a dime, and I wouldn't have gotten it anyway, since I outearned my ex. So feminism only helped him.	/r/MensRights	09/12/10 07:34 PM
0	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. I've been part of the feminist movement in one way or another since I was a kid, and I don't know a single feminist who thinks only women should have power and I really don't know any feminist who wants to be a delicate flower. Feminism is gender equality, period. Anyone who argues differently is not a feminist. It's unfair to put the ideology of your drunk ex-girlfriend on an actual political movement that has reasonable and well-defined goals.	/r/MensRights	09/12/10 07:31 PM
3	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. For example, if a woman says, "All men are dogs who are only good for their money." I'm sure you wouldn't laugh and dismiss it as one bitch among a million good women.

That doesn't mean it's okay to sexually assault men. It means no one should be sexually assaulted, and since it's usually women, women are trying to fight for that.	/r/MensRights	09/12/10 07:23 PM

-9	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. The whole concept of alimony assumes that a woman can't support herself without a man's help. If women were equal to men they wouldn't be entitled to alimony, so feminism would fix that for you.	/r/MensRights	09/12/10 07:19 PM
-7	List of Rights that are being denied to Western Women that Feminists are fighting for. "More equal" isn't a real term; it's using a literary allusion as a scare tactic. The definition of equality is equal rights, not special rights. Ask any woman you know if they've been sexually assaulted, from rape to a simple ass grab on a crowded train. The majority of women have been. So no, we don't have it better than everyone else.	/r/MensRights	09/12/10 07:02 PM

I'm not angry, I just enjoy having a job and having my own money. I pay for the man on the first date to make it clear that I'm opposed to all kinds of harmful gender roles.

It's that other people get treated poorly in a way you will never have to deal with, so it would be kind of you to be aware of that.	/r/MensRights	18/11/10 02:47 AM

Hilarious. The question is not if you find it offensive, but if someone else does. My friend can say the word "cunt" in front of me and I won't care. But when my mom walks into the room, we don't say "cunt" anymore. You consider your audience's feelings. If you don't care about other people's feelings, that's fine. There's no law that says you have to be a nice person. But don't pretend to be the victim. Regarding tone, if there's a rule against being a bitch on the internet then we're all fucked.	/r/MensRights	31/10/10 02:24 AM
1	Did I call it or what. Guy get's banned from feminisms for not "checking his privilege" - what ever the hell that is supposed to mean, and I get banned for telling him he's gonna get banned. Hilarious. In that case it sounds like she was being polite, saying she knew you didn't mean to be offensive but she or others she knew of would be offended, so could you not say it again. It's a polite request, not censorship. No one is trying to censor the thoughts in your head. The people who may have actually been offended are acting less like victims than you are.	/r/MensRights	31/10/10 02:12 AM
1	Did I call it or what. Guy get's banned from feminisms for not "checking his privilege" - what ever the hell that is supposed to mean, and I get banned for telling him he's gonna get banned. Hilarious. A mentally ill person is well within their rights to be offended by the word crazy. And the highest manner of censorship is shit like banning books. Asking people to mind their language in a subreddit is hardly on the same level. Calm down.	/r/MensRights	31/10/10 02:03 AM

Hilarious. I'm not the one who started the argument, and personally it doesn't bother me at all. I was just saying that if someone perceives language as an insult and expresses that politely, normal people would respect that. It is quite a jump from "respect others" to "facist pig", and honestly, this makes you look crazy.	/r/MensRights	31/10/10 01:06 AM

Hilarious. Whatever the dictionary definition means, some people who have mental illnesses are offended by that term. If someone who has a mental illness says, "I am offended by that term," the polite response is to just use another word. If, instead of just using another word, you would rather be an asshole about it, please don't act surprised when people think you're an asshole.	/r/MensRights	30/10/10 11:04 PM

If your child was struggling to overcome a mental illness, you wouldn't let people call your child "crazy". It's a normal reaction.	/r/MensRights	30/10/10 03:31 PM

Yes, once upon a time you could say retarded without offending many people, but once upon a time you could say "negro" without offending people. Just because it was acceptable 50 years ago doesn't mean it's okay now or a passing PC fad.	/r/MensRights	30/10/10 03:14 PM

-20	Did I call it or what. Guy get's banned from feminisms for not "checking his privilege" - what ever the hell that is supposed to mean, and I get banned for telling him he's gonna get banned. Hilarious. "Check your privilege" was the conclusion to a pretty clear request to not use the word "crazy". It's similar to how you wouldn't go into a discussion about autism and use the word "retarded", especially after someone asked you not to twice. I'm not trying to take sides, but I think it looks reasonable to me.	/r/MensRights	30/10/10 04:36 AM

2	Last week my 22 floor office building had a fire alarm. We have fire drills every year so no one was concerned and everyone started down the stairs in an orderly way. Then we smelled smoke and heard sirens. The stairs were very packed and slow moving and many of the women started to panic... I think the biggest problem here, more important than gender, is that everyone in your office doesn't know how to safely evacuate, a skill that should be innate to anyone who has attended the fourth grade.	/r/MensRights	10/10/10 07:51 AM
