2	The phrase "man up" that people use bothers me. It's not just about trying to engage people's empathy. It's about how this legitimately affects both men and women. If you think it just affects men, or that the men's issue is "more important" (not saying it's less important, just saying overall damaging effects of stereotyping and media apply to both), then you do come across/get dismissed as that, and justly.	/r/MensRights	27/11/13 08:27 AM
3	The phrase "man up" that people use bothers me. Would definitely encourage you to watch the video. It's not about women's issues being left out, it's just talking about media and stereotypes hurting people, both men and women. I think avoiding any mention of women would hurt the piece's goals.	/r/MensRights	27/11/13 08:25 AM
6	The phrase "man up" that people use bothers me. Not quite clear what you mean... can you clarify? That's kind of the point of the poem. That sexism, hyper-masculine culture hurts men as well as women.	/r/MensRights	27/11/13 03:44 AM
