| 1 | Getting divorced turns men into slavesDoes it really matter to your boyfriend? He only makes about 13,440 per year if she didn't take anything away from him... THE FATHER OF HER KIDS LIVES IN EXTREME POVERTY BECAUSE OF WHAT SHE TAKES FROM HIM. If the ex wife doesn't work at all, he would still be living in poverty even if he and his ex were still together with the kid. He doesn't have a good job. With the amount he makes, he's gonna live in poverty any way you twist it. | /r/MensRights | 19/12/13 05:24 PM |
| 14 | NY dad deemed unfit for not taking son to McDonald'sFailure to serve food? This isn't a case of a kid starving. Did your parents really never have a time where the kitchen was closed? If you didn't eat what they made, you couldn't go rifling through the fridge for whatever you wanted. You'll survive until breakfast. And if you don't like breakfast? Well, eventually you will get hungry enough that you will eat your vegetables. There is a difference between starving your kid and not letting them act like an entitled little brat. | /r/MensRights | 08/11/13 07:20 PM |

| 1 | 10 Reasons Why We Still Need FeminismCondoms are not a matter of mutual consent. You want to use a condom??? You use one no questions asked or no sex. How is that not male power over their reproductive rights? I do wish men also had the pill or the shot, them people can be protected on both sides.

| -1 | 10 Reasons Why We Still Need FeminismI think it was more about nature than power. Men make over 12 billion sperm per month.

And yes, body image issues are across both genders, the disorder that is actually deadly is what I think they were getting at, and it is more about females.

Only, instead of just downright telling them that they are too ugly or something, they probably go through the application/interview process and never get real answers as to why they weren't hired.

I think it is stupid as hell and wish it weren't that way. I stopped buying formal dresses, and just go with a little black dress now.

| 2 | Free prom dresses for girls, no similar program for guysYeah, I didn't want to dispute the fact that a boy's cost could be just as much if not more. I just think that there are a probably a lot more used dresses out there than used suits/tuxes, as boys either rent or buy and keep. I don't think that this was meant to be like "lets help the girls and not the boys!" I think someone probably noticed that a lot of dresses were left for nothing after the initial girl wears it, and then just thought, "lets do something helpful with these used dresses!" | /r/MensRights | 11/04/13 02:16 AM |
| 7 | Free prom dresses for girls, no similar program for guysWell, I think one of the reasons is that girls are expected to buy new dresses for pretty much every fancy event that they go to. Dress, jewelry and purse to match. Girls most likely get rid of their prom dresses because it is uncommon to wear the same dress more than once, for fear that other girls will notice and comment. So there are probably a lot of used prom dresses out there. Now, boys can wear the same shoes, suit, etc until it no longer fits them... and there is no stigma with that or n… | /r/MensRights | 09/04/13 11:42 PM |

Its about a 48/52 split. I'm just saying they need to be treated differently in some way, as they have different symptoms and respond differently to treatment. http://www.heart.org/HEARTORG/General/Heart-and-Stroke-Association-Statistics_UCM_319064_SubHomePage.jsp# | /r/MensRights | 01/02/13 05:50 PM |

This organization works in some sort of partnership with the AHA. I think that in the past decade, there have been strides, and would hope that an organization which was really created just so women would understand they are at risk, would eventually be no longer needed once the message has been heard.

Is there a male equivalent?What I'm saying is that we don't need entire organizations like this to address the issues of ONE gender. Hopefully, in the long run both genders would be funded proportionately. However, I think in this case the organization (which is only about a decade old) is serving its purpose, and hopefully won't be needed forever.

Women's health is already funded extroadinarily above all of men's health and we don't need another stupid organization to address ONLY women's issues. I am only talking about this one thing.

Women's heart attacks are different and up until about a decade ago, heart attacks and heart disease were predominantly seen as an old man's disease. You can see these articles that explain that years ago people didn't see heart disease as a big thing in women. Women's symptoms are harder to diagnose (not the typical "my chest is tight" symptoms), and women are less likely to come back from heart attacks. http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/id/QAA326568 http://abcnews.go.com/Health/HeartDiseaseNews… | /r/MensRights | 01/02/13 03:09 AM |

You've said that you are a student, so I am assuming that when you put in to get the job you indicated you wanted "part time", and are thus only working 20-35 hours previously.

But, since people don't know what they are labeled, you could make them whatever you want, and therefore could be a bit more upsetting if the person found out - fuck buddies, assholes, hotties, annoying, whatever...

| 1 | Did anyone else find this Ad to be awkward?you can put people in "circles" to help you categorize your friends. you can label the "circles" whatever you want and people can't see what you've labeled them as. you can also move people around however/whenever you choose without them knowing you are moving them around. | /r/MensRights | 31/05/12 04:38 AM |
| 0 | BBC News - Woman who lied about rape asks for 'bygones to be bygones'Fear of being accused of falsely reporting rape is not reason why people will not step up. As I said, that percentage includes men, children, etc... There are different reasons for different people. Sometimes there will be fear of not being taken seriously, fear that there is not enough evidence, fear that their rapist will hurt them if they tell - the majority of rape victims know their attacker quite well. Maybe they are a child and are not given the chance to report, they don't want the rapis… | /r/MensRights | 30/05/12 10:40 PM |

I wouldn't sue, but just roll my eyes and move on. In the same regard, a bus driver should refrain from calling a man "hunk", "big boy", or any other kind of name. That kind of stuff has no place outside of "familiar" relationships as ignatiusloyala pointed out. Lets just stick with "sir" "mam" etc... | /r/MensRights | 30/05/12 10:27 PM |
| 3 | BBC News - Woman who lied about rape asks for 'bygones to be bygones'Seriously, where do you get this fact? I was an RA in college, and from what we were taught, only about 8% of reported rapes are "unfounded" Furthermore, it is estimates that only about 15% of rape victims actually go one and report their rape as a crime. This makes much sense, especially when you consider the number of men that are raped, but do not report it due to humiliation, or fear that they will not be taken seriously. | /r/MensRights | 30/05/12 10:16 PM |

| 1 | Mom gouges 5-year-old son's eyes out during ritual.Yeah, I know that rituals exist and, since they are rituals, happen quite frequently. However, the article you originally posted us is not an example of one of those rituals. It isn't even an article that references a ritual sacrifice or hurting of boys or men in general. Its just a sad story. The other article you mentioned is also sad, but where does it say that boys are specifically targeted?

| 1 | Traffic reporter Jason Bouman 'dumped for hot blonde' Needless to say, it was a blonde female that replaced him.How is this a mens rights issue? becasuse of my age, was being asked to accept a lesser role sees the role for someone younger, and more cool looking. I think it is more just an attractiveness, youth issue. It sounds like they might have easily replaced him with a younger, more attractive male. I mean, don't get me wrong. The situation sucks. TV must be a horrible industry to work in as you age, but don't confuse this as a MR issue. | /r/MensRights | 25/05/12 05:40 PM |

Like I said, there isn't tons of info, and since they do take place in tribal, 3rd world societies, we don't hear tons about it. We also do hear more about women killings, as these take place more often in places that it would get reported - places that the US occupies, more places where there are news reporters.

I don't really know what kinds of things atheists do that are particularly feminist, as I do not follow feminism, and I'm not exactly sure what thats all about.

It is not ALWAYS a choice at every moment of your life, especially when you are not 18 yet.

| 1 | If my girlfriend and I are going to have a baby, what is the rationale behind my not having a say in whether or not that baby gets born?The burden of contraception cannot fall solely on woman. If you don't trust your partner enough when she says she is on contraception, then use a fucking condom. As a side note: No birth control method is 100 percent effective. You and your partner should be on the same page about what is going to happen if you accidentally conceive. Man OR Woman: if you are not able to handle the fact that you have made a baby, then you should not be having sex - even protected sex. | /r/MensRights | 20/04/12 11:15 PM |
