| 1 | The Politics of Rape: Debunking the Feminist MythIn you're last paragraph you start trying to make me look crazy for saying we should read objective literature as much as we can, committing the straw man fallacy by saying I'm proposing we all disregard the work of every influential writer. No, I never said we should do that. But when it comes time to place a true/false judgement on their theories and assertions or decide whether we believe what they're saying, we must put their theories through their due paces, and one of the ways we do this i… | /r/MensRights | 11/03/13 01:25 AM |
| 1 | The Politics of Rape: Debunking the Feminist MythYou say you agree with the reasoning presented, but you then say you don't know if the premises for said reasoning are true....how can you accept the conclusions as true without checking the premises? I believe the premise because the premise is common knowledge. It's like saying I shouldn't believe MLK advocating Civil Rights until I research the premise that Slavery actually occured. The fact that slavery happened is common knowledge that nobody disputes. Nobody disputes that feminist believe … | /r/MensRights | 11/03/13 01:20 AM |

| 1 | The Politics of Rape: Debunking the Feminist MythI'm not looking to fight? Look I'm not trying to overwhelm you with words or anything. I'm not looking to "win". I honestly don't want to spend all saturday debating you. I just feel I have some points that I need to point out. If you want to call it a day fine. But I do want to finish my rebuttal of your earlier post. | /r/MensRights | 11/03/13 12:50 AM |
| 1 | The Politics of Rape: Debunking the Feminist MythI think there's been a misunderstanding. I asked you if you think rape is about either Rape OR Power. It's a one or the other question. I can assure you most feminists ardently believe "Rape is about Power and Not Sex". In fact I challenge you to find even one feminist who would say otherwise. It's basically one of the pillars of modern feminism. I'm actually shocked you're unsure about this. | /r/MensRights | 11/03/13 12:47 AM |
| 1 | The Politics of Rape: Debunking the Feminist MythYou said "Feminists go "MRA's believe in X" or there's lots of articles that start off with "African-Americans think Obama should-". It's not to be taken literally." What do you mean exactly by 'taken literally'? If I read something that started off with either of those statements I'd assume the author meant that most members of the reference class possess whatever belief/quality the article is talking about. Yes, that was a bad choice of words "taken literally". I meant what you wrote, that mos… | /r/MensRights | 11/03/13 12:40 AM |
| 1 | The Politics of Rape: Debunking the Feminist MythI want to try a different approach. I'll do a point by point rebuttal of your response a little later. I just want to get a handle on your views. Do you believe eape is about sex or power? And can we both agree that feminists (the vast majority) believe that rape is about power and not sex? Do you believe rape is a crime similar to something like a mugging or is it more like a hate crime, in line with white southerners lynching blacks back in the Jim Crow South way back when? | /r/MensRights | 10/03/13 11:41 PM |
| 1 | The Politics of Rape: Debunking the Feminist MythFirst, I've never come across anything that says 'secular creation' is a tenant of feminism (not to say that no such writings exist..). I've never seen it described as "secular creation" but I've seen plenty of feminists argue that gender is learned, not inate and that gender roles are a direct result of society imposing them on us. Also, she argues that rape is not a cultural issue. I don't think it's wise to entirely isolate rape from social factors; behavior and personality is equal parts nat… | /r/MensRights | 10/03/13 09:09 PM |

| 0 | Some of you really dissapointed meThe reason I found the thread was because I originally was going to post it but Reddit told me it was already posted.

| 1 | The Politics of Rape: Debunking the Feminist MythYou know how subjective "ideology" is? By your logic we shouldn't read any articles from a feminist website because they're all shilling for their ideology dressed as science. I'll read an article from anywhere, be they feminist, Christian, conservative, liberal, MRA, and I'll judge it by the merits of the article not the person themselves.

| 3 | Star Trek episode explores man falsely accused of assault/rapeI remember this episode, I never really thought about the message behind that show.

| 5 | Not an MR issue, but I hear it thrown around in MR/feminist arguments all the time..Naivety/ignorance about something makes you weak, and being in the know about something makes you strong. They try to equate Privilege with Ignorance. If you're one of the groups that they deem privileged they try to put you down a peg by saying your privilege blinds you to all the struggles that their oppressed group/gender/race/whatever faces and that makes you naive/stupid/weak. | /r/MensRights | 03/02/13 08:11 AM |

Rather in the big picture it helps EVERYONE (men, women, children) if men don't suppress their emotions, get counseling, allowed to talk about their emotional problems without stigma, etc so it doesn't lead to a variety of problems that are epidemic among men. These types of shooters do seem to be only men. I feel like we should recognize this without demonizing all men as potential shooters. | /r/MensRights | 15/12/12 06:33 AM |
