| 1 | Male Privilege.Well I personally think that some people will die no matter what we do, but I don't see a "right to work" being the optimal way to run charity. I just see it as a weird condescending way to pretend that people who can't do a job are just fine that just hurts employers, and if we do think it's necessary/moral to impair people to help others, we might as well just levy a tax and give charity. I just think it's a weird moral solution to say "well no one helps these people so we're going to legally … | /r/MensRights | 10/02/12 12:18 AM |
| 1 | Male Privilege.You must not be looking very hard, a lot of effort in expended in the name of charity. People begging on streets easily make enough to not die, at least in large cities. Everyone has a right to work. No one has a right to make someone pay them money. You can dig holes in your backyard and nobody can stop you. But requiring some people to give money in exchange for goods they don't want is basically theft. If I make someone hire a midget for his basketball team, I'm not doing that midget any good… | /r/MensRights | 09/02/12 08:48 PM |
| 1 | Male Privilege.Yes, it involves people in their daily lives being charitable to other human beings. Strangely, people usually don't like to see other people starving. Beyond the essentials, society as a whole doesn't need to directly increase the standing of other people. A woman not being hired because she might get pregnant doesn't ruin her life, just her day. People like you who think they deserve equal treatment despite that hindrance can hire them at their own businesses. | /r/MensRights | 09/02/12 02:00 PM |
| 1 | Male Privilege.So we agree that people at biological disadvantages need to be helped. I believe that a civilized society is one that bands together and helps them, not one that leaves it up to certain citizens. Interesting. Why does this necessitate forbidding employers from weighing gender-related obstacles in the hiring process? | /r/MensRights | 09/02/12 12:47 AM |
| 0 | Male Privilege.No, I haven't done that. I've said businesses don't need to hire cripples. People still have a moral obligation to help them, but it's stupid to shift your moral burden to someone else at the expense of the rest of society. | /r/MensRights | 08/02/12 08:19 PM |
| 0 | Male Privilege.Yeah, that's fucking stupid. People with Downs Syndrome shouldn't be allowed to be physics professors, because they are inferior to other people at performing that task. A business has no reason to employ substandard people for no reason other than to make society seem more "civilized." | /r/MensRights | 08/02/12 07:56 PM |
| -3 | Male Privilege.Of course they should be allowed to do that. There are relevant differences between men and women that can affect their ability to perform their job. | /r/MensRights | 08/02/12 01:50 PM |
