| 2 | [META] PLEASE make sure you're post is actually about MRA related issues, not just how a man was wronged by a womanThank you so much for explaining these two things to me. The example being rude vs. being a rude person cleared up the "concern troll" issue. I do really wish that there was more room for different opinions, but you can't have it all, I guess, and your last paragraph really showed me why. So thanks for taking the time to explain this a little bit better than those in this subreddit who would have dismissed my questions right away. | /r/MensRights | 07/08/13 06:46 PM |
| 1 | [META] PLEASE make sure you're post is actually about MRA related issues, not just how a man was wronged by a womanAhh, okay. Thanks for at least clearing the definition up for me, even though I don't agree with the use of the phrase. I always thought that they had to express concern for the other side, but now I see that's not the case. But then for those of us who like to take a more moderate, critical, neutral, or what have you, stance, does that necessarily make us concern trolls? Sorry, I know that I'm "concern trolling" right now, but I promise I'm actually not trying to be. | /r/MensRights | 07/08/13 04:53 AM |
| 2 | [META] PLEASE make sure you're post is actually about MRA related issues, not just how a man was wronged by a womanThis post is the textbook definition of "concern trolling" I thought that concern trolling was where someone pretended to care about one issue, only to really engender support for the opposing view (which in this case, I would assume to be feminism.) I don't see anything in OP's comment beside the line "...and its not like some guys haven't gotten away with lenient punishments for doing shitty things to women." It's not like he's supporting feminism or anything, at least not the way I read it. I… | /r/MensRights | 06/08/13 01:41 PM |
| 2 | Mensrights, what are some things you see other men doing/saying that you think are unhelpful to the Men's Rights movement?For me, I feel like one of the main things that detracts from the MRM, or at least in my opinion and the opinions of a few of my male friends, is the people who make this subreddit into a mini-SRS-esque circlejerk. Male children getting abused in an orphanage? Sure, it's sexism. And it's a child abuse issue, but how would you feel if feminists took up abuse of female children under their banner? Or not having a male in an advertisement for a program that recycles old phones to help out victims o… | /r/MensRights | 01/08/13 06:15 PM |
| 2 | Evidently domestic violence only happens to women in Verizon's world.Which makes their claims of helping battered men a complete crock of shit! No, that's not the case at all. If they put an image of 4 men up on their advertisement, the public is likely to look at it and think "Oh, well okay then." But the women invoke a need to help from the general public. That's the difference here. It's not Verizon's fault that society treats male victims of domestic violence as "collateral damage," as you very succinctly put it. That's an issue with society. However, what I … | /r/MensRights | 01/08/13 02:34 PM |
| 4 | Evidently domestic violence only happens to women in Verizon's world.Putting women on there creates an "easy" association with victims of violence. While this is neither ideal (since really, nobody should be associated with being a victim) nor strictly true (since men also are victims of abuse), it's a marketing strategy, if you will. They are using something that the consumer can easily recognize to sell a product, or in this case, help everyone. That being said, putting a man and/or a child on there would make us feel special and acknowledged, though. | /r/MensRights | 01/08/13 01:51 PM |
| 1 | A handy list of some of the most common male privileges, including sources.The workplace deaths and suicide rates and being victims of violence are all very valid points (which do contribute to the shorter life expectancy of men) because they are results of different aspects of society. We can pinpoint the way society affects the jobs men take, how society often negatively views single men, and why men tend to commit and be victims of more acts of violence. There's no denying that these factors contribute to the statistic of lowered male life expectancy, and because th… | /r/MensRights | 19/07/13 01:18 PM |
| 1 | A handy list of some of the most common male privileges, including sources.Egalitarianism is great. Everyone should be treated the same way, with the same amount of intrinsic and societal worth. I have nothing against that. However, there's really very little you can do to impose egalitarianism on the mechanism of DNA replication that occurs inside your body. Men experience a greater shortening of the telomeres (end caps of DNA) during DNA replication, and that leads to a shorter lifespan. Being civilized may be actually have accelerated the rate at which telomeres sho… | /r/MensRights | 19/07/13 01:18 PM |
| 6 | A handy list of some of the most common male privileges, including sources.Hey, HappyGerbil, I'm not singling you out in particular, but I've noticed that many of these statistical compilations like to compare medical statistics between men and women. Why is that? While there are obviously many medical reasons that contribute to the prolonged female life expectancy (safer childbirth, a generally less stressful work environment, antioxidant properties of estrogen, etc.) and the shortened life expectancy of men (more cases of dangerous employment, testosterone contributi… | /r/MensRights | 19/07/13 03:50 AM |
| 3 | Banned from /r/feminism: Close-minded, irrational, unavailable to dialogue.You have perfectly expressed what I have been struggling to put words to for a long time now. Thank you. | /r/MensRights | 16/07/13 09:00 PM |
| 1 | What do you think about these stats?Yep, I totally agree that public awareness, media portrayal, fundraising efforts, and other things of that nature are very different for prostate and breast cancer, or many other things that affect the two genders differently. However, I must wonder (and I promise I'm not trying to play devil's advocate or anything here) if "rights" is necessarily the right word to use. I mean, it's definitely an awareness issue, but many things that we lump under the collective title of "men's rights" aren't re… | /r/MensRights | 16/07/13 05:45 PM |
| 2 | What do you think about these stats?Thank you for being able to recognize that even in a group where the main intention may be good, some people go about it the wrong way. | /r/MensRights | 16/07/13 02:10 PM |
| 9 | What do you think about these stats?I have a problem with the cancer stats. Cancer is not something you can use in any gender related argument about how men or women have it worse in society. Cancer diagnosis rates and mortality rates are not at all affected by how society treats either gender. Cancer is a bitch and will affect anyone, male or female, young or old, rich or poor. However, the spending is something that we can use, not as a point of contention, but as a platform to defeat this horrible platform of diseases for every… | /r/MensRights | 16/07/13 02:08 PM |
| 4 | Pandering Senator McCain advises women not to join the military until sexual assault epidemic halted yet fails to mention males are the predominant victims and ignores the rape of males crisis.Because if you use any "excessive" force in attempting to get a woman off of you, you could potentially leave her with a few bruises. And all she has to do, because she's frustrated at not being able to have sex and wants to lash out in some way, is to go to some authority figure, claim that she was abused/assaulted, and it is most likely that the man who was trying to "shoo a 120 lb woman off of [him]" would end up in some serious trouble. | /r/MensRights | 05/06/13 07:12 PM |
| 5 | Pandering Senator McCain advises women not to join the military until sexual assault epidemic halted yet fails to mention males are the predominant victims and ignores the rape of males crisis.If you grab a woman's breasts without her permission and and she takes offense, then that's sexual assault. If someone reaches down and grabs a man's crotch in an unwelcome manner, then that is also sexual assault. Rape of females is easy to understand. However, many people do not realize that it is possible to rape a male. Yes, you can force someone to get an erection. It's a bodily response to external stimuli, just like sweating or dilating of the pupils. And then all the woman simply has to … | /r/MensRights | 05/06/13 07:09 PM |
| 1 | Cineplex Entertainment told me father's don't matterWow, a thoroughly logical reply from both sides of the argument. Good on you, sir. | /r/MensRights | 05/06/13 05:11 AM |
| 1 | Cineplex Entertainment told me father's don't matterTrue, and the long email response time, as well. | /r/MensRights | 04/06/13 10:45 PM |
| 6 | Cineplex Entertainment told me father's don't matterBut shouldn't that reflect badly on the employee and not the company? I mean, I get that the employee is employed by the company, so the company is responsible to some extent for the behavior of the employees, but sometimes, people fall through the cracks. Cineplex didn't tell him that fathers don't matter. Their shitty employee did. However, it was bad on their part to not advertise the "one discount per child" thing more clearly. | /r/MensRights | 04/06/13 08:55 PM |
| 2 | Man dies after being beaten with a baton by a female cop. Happy, feminists? (warning.. graphic video)Oh yeah, I completely agree that feminists or even people in general would jump at an opportunity to cry out about male dominance and how oppressed females are if a male cop sexually assaulted a female suspect. However, there was no sexual assault here, but rather only physical assault. | /r/MensRights | 28/05/13 04:51 PM |
| 5 | Man dies after being beaten with a baton by a female cop. Happy, feminists? (warning.. graphic video)Girl gets tackled into a wall Woman gets kicked in head by cop Boy tasered by cop after refusing to wash the cop's car Intoxicated man beaten to death by cops What I'm trying to say is there are good cops and bad cops. This woman was a bad cop. The cops in these articles and gifs are also bad cops. There's no need to bring gender into this. EDIT: Formatting. | /r/MensRights | 28/05/13 01:57 PM |
| 1 | 17 year old woman abusing orphanage boys while laughing about it. Graphic VideoOh boy, here we go. And now we're cherry picking. I'm not saying that this isn't a big issue. It definitely is. And now I understand why it's a MRM issue: because most people aren't aware that women are capable of perpetrating such violence. However, I will not stand by and agree that this is a MRM issue because these are male children getting beaten. This isn't an equality or rights issue. Equality would mean that the femalesin the video get treated the same way as the males. Which would mean t… | /r/MensRights | 18/05/13 03:24 PM |
| 0 | 17 year old woman abusing orphanage boys while laughing about it. Graphic VideoAhh, thank you for this explanation. I guess I just never understood this point of view because I've been lucky to be around people, both male and female, who are sensible enough to realize and acknowledge that both males and females commit these kinds of acts of violence. Sadly, not everyone can be like them and that's a pity. | /r/MensRights | 18/05/13 03:29 AM |
| -3 | 17 year old woman abusing orphanage boys while laughing about it. Graphic VideoWoah, I'm a guy myself and I see many issues wrong with the way men are treated in the eyes of the public (child support, false rape accusations, etc.) so don't group me in with that bunch. I am very well aware of men's rights and I think that they are just as important and women's rights. However, once we go around making every little slight against a male and full blown men's rights issue, then what separates us from the feminists and SRS-ers? | /r/MensRights | 17/05/13 10:49 PM |
| -4 | 17 year old woman abusing orphanage boys while laughing about it. Graphic VideoThat's bad logic if I've ever heard it. They won't acknowledge that females do bad things, so I'm going to blow this issue out of proportion, lessen the initial issue (child abuse), and turn it into a different issue. The kids are being beaten with a belt. It's a belt that's been folded in half. Trust me, I know what it is when I see one. I've gotten my ass whooped before, too. The filming and obvious delight on the woman's face is a testimony to her messed up psyche. She has problems. Severe on… | /r/MensRights | 17/05/13 10:46 PM |
| 12 | 17 year old woman abusing orphanage boys while laughing about it. Graphic VideoThis is very true. But we don't have to be like them, do we? :\ | /r/MensRights | 17/05/13 08:38 PM |
| 6 | 17 year old woman abusing orphanage boys while laughing about it. Graphic VideoYou're right. I didn't notice that there was a girl in the video, so I thought it was a male-only orphanage (do they even have those?). However, it was strange that she let one or two boys go without beating them. Which is by no means saying that what she did was any less deplorable, but it's noteworthy. I wish I could understand what she was saying in the video. Also, the targeted abuse of boys is a men's right issue, yes, but maybe not as directly or pointedly as we'd like to think. It is defi… | /r/MensRights | 17/05/13 08:20 PM |

| 7 | 17 year old woman abusing orphanage boys while laughing about it. Graphic VideoIt's a huge issue, but they are children. This is a child abuse issue. | /r/MensRights | 17/05/13 07:03 PM |
| 29 | 17 year old woman abusing orphanage boys while laughing about it. Graphic VideoDon't know why everyone is downvoting Arxl. He's right. This isn't a men's rights issue. This is a child abuse issue. Or maybe on a larger scale, it's a "what the hell is wrong with humanity" issue. But it is NOT a singularly men's rights issue. If it was a male worker beating female children, would you be okay if a bunch of feminists suddenly made it a feminist issue? Or what if it was male workers beating male children? Would that cancel out? Guys, I'm not saying this isn't an issue in and of … | /r/MensRights | 17/05/13 06:59 PM |
| -6 | Found this in a high school classroom. I politely asked the teacher to take it down. She laughed and told me to lighten up.Are we seriously getting so butthurt over a joke like this? Seriously guys, when you start being unable to take small jokes about things, that's when you know something is not right. Can't draw caricatures of Mohammed. Westboro gets all offended and shit when you joke about Christianity. Feminists get offended at lighthearted humor. ...Do we see where we're headed? | /r/MensRights | 10/04/13 03:26 AM |
| 3 | SRS and Tumblr are very much alike.As a tumblr user and a MRA, I can say that this is usually not true. It may seem this way, but that's only because the same people who are on SRS, such as radical feminists, also inhabit the tumblr world. That's why you get these arguments that are blown out of proportion and crap like that. I had one of my followers start shit with me after I posted some men's right stuff, but I simply unfollowed them and the drama ended. Most of tumblr is just .gifs of Doctor Who, pandas, and Chuck. | /r/MensRights | 26/03/13 11:30 PM |
| -1 | The 2 faces of feminismWait, okay, so I'm honestly still confused. If he paid for it, and K also paid for her seat, then how could they both possible end up fighting over the same seat? And dude. Disliking her just because she's a feminist? That's like the feminists who say "I hate him because he's a MRA." Are we seeing the problem here? | /r/MensRights | 28/10/12 03:41 PM |
| 1 | The 2 faces of feminismThat's very true. Most people just rant about it to get it out of their system but then forget about it later. Or rant about it to our friends some more. And the staying next to him, well, that's a bit harder to fix because she'd have to switch back to coach, and we all know how fussy airlines get when it comes to moving people around. | /r/MensRights | 28/10/12 03:37 PM |
| 1 | The 2 faces of feminismWell no, in that case, it's perfectly understandable that she wanted the white guy to give up his first class seat. Say you bought a first class ticket, but got a coach boarding pass. Some random black woman got your first class boarding pass. The airlines refuse to fix the issue, so you ask the woman to move, hoping that she'll be a decent person and give up the seat she didn't purchase. That's only human nature, no? It has nothing to do with that fact that she's a woman, or that she's black. Y… | /r/MensRights | 28/10/12 04:16 AM |
| 1 | The 2 faces of feminismSo what I gathered was that her friend K paid for the first class ticket, but didn't get a first class boarding class, so she ended up sitting coach. The white guy that she wanted to murder must have gotten K's boarding pass and was sitting in K's seat, because otherwise, there would be no conflict. Am I right? If I am right, then she's just a pissed off woman who is ranting about how her friend got treated unfairly. Sure, she makes a couple of stabs at the male gender in specific, but let's not… | /r/MensRights | 27/10/12 10:57 PM |
| 1 | Front page of CNN: "men can still recognize what it means to be a good man and act like one." [referring to the 3 men who "put the lives of the women before their own" during the Aurora shooting.]To be honest, I think everyone's overreacting with the "Oh, so we have to take a bullet to be considered a good man" thing. If you notice, the article was written by a guy. Yes, one of us. And while some parts of the article (the paragraph about men and not having jobs and whatnot) were completely unnecessary, I feel like this was an article written to honor the courage of these three rather than to bash on regular Joes like us. | /r/MensRights | 27/07/12 02:09 PM |
