| 15 | Why other gender equality groups should be feminismThere is a bias towards giving child custody to the mother in most cases, even when there is no evidence that the father would make a less competent custodial parent. This is one of the biggest issues discussed by MRAs and it is a feminist issue. The problem is not anti-men, pro-women bias in courts. The problem is outdated beliefs about gender roles in marriage and parenting in society as a whole. This is patently false on two fronts. First, if this is, in fact, a "feminist issue" then the larg… | /r/MensRights | 02/09/12 08:35 PM |
| 3 | What you guys think of the anti porn feminists ?True, but mentioning the study to feminists I interact with is convenient for determining (based on their reaction) whether I can have an intelligent conversation with them, expand their horizons, and convince them the absurdity of patriarchy theory and that they don't have/deserve a monopoly on human rights issues, or if they're bat shit crazy and I should leave the situation AQAF | /r/MensRights | 01/09/12 11:06 PM |
| 10 | What you guys think of the anti porn feminists ?http://www.impactlab.net/2008/01/06/internet-porn-shown-to-decrease-incidence-of-rape/ For about every 10% increase in Internet access (and correspondingly, access to pornography) There's a correlating 7% decrease in violent sex crimes. Sex-Neg feminists have about as much shit for brains as prohibitionists. Edit: Spelling | /r/MensRights | 01/09/12 10:39 PM |
| 1 | Did you ever have sex with someone without her explicitly, verbally agreeing to it? Sorry, but you're a rapist.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxVvVohH-88 it's a bit old, but as relevant today as it was 6 years ago. | /r/MensRights | 27/08/12 05:28 AM |
| 2 | Men, Who Needs Them? - NYTimes.com(http://graduate-school.phds.org/rankings/genetics/rank/larger/2) UConn is 46th according to the NRC quality survey. Couldn't find Boise state on there. According to his research profile, his emphasis has been on genetics and biology in forensics. He's done a disservice to science, because now any testimony he provides in court on efficacy of genetic forensic methods is going to be countered with this op-ed, and call into question his actual knowledge about the subject. | /r/MensRights | 26/08/12 07:19 PM |
| 7 | ACTIVISM OPPORTUNITY: Tell Mr. Hampikian and Boise State's Biology Department how you feel about one of their faculty dismissing the value of men.I hate to break it to you, but according to his faculty profile here (http://biology.boisestate.edu/faculty-and-staff/faculty/greg-hampikian/) he's been a full professor at Boise State since 2006, which means he (outside some rare circumstance) has tenure. Aside from professional misconduct (criminal behavior, academic fraud) he is fully protected within his academic freedom to publish opinion pieces without suffering any retribution from the University. You might be better off contacting the pr… | /r/MensRights | 26/08/12 05:29 PM |

| 4 | What real life event made you realize that the mens rights movement is important?I think most people who embrace the movement have a single particular event that acts like an "aha" moment, but rather a series of events that continually goes against the narrative that's espoused by society, and realizes that others share those experiences and thus the narrative is wrong. In my case, I was a "White Knight" up until a year after I finished my undergraduate studies. When I was preparing a self-bio for my research profile, in addition to recalling all the interesting intellectual… | /r/MensRights | 23/08/12 04:54 PM |
| 5 | An Experiment: This sub rightly, and for obvious reason, usually only posts stories about the way society makes being a man difficult and shitty. That can get you down after a time. So instead, tell me what you like about masculinity and being a man.http://www.biggerbetterbeards.org/ | /r/MensRights | 17/08/12 04:04 PM |
| 9 | The oft repeated factoid "men are 9X% of the homeless" is inaccurate (W. Farrell states that he uses methodologies he learned working with feminism, so grain of salt), but its safe to say that men make up the majority of the homeless and unsheltered homeless. Anyone got better data?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simpson%27s_paradox It's entirely possible, depending on how you partition data, to get the statistics you want to show. AFAIK, gender studies departments will aggregate data to paint a narrative of oppression, whether it's in DV statistics, wage disparities, or educational achievement. From a scientific standpoint, this is intellectual dishonesty. Statistics are powerful because when experimental evidence isn't available that establishes causal relationships, they a… | /r/MensRights | 17/08/12 03:34 PM |
| 5 | Double standards on theRegardless of gender, the "I give you gifts, now accept my relationship offer" reeks of entitlement issues, even if he was fully aware she was trying to establish a relationship by giving him gifts. Any good relationship is founded on cooperation and balance. In fact, the best way to build relationships is not through giving gifts, but by asking for favors, starting small like with recommendations, and working up (http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-happiness-project/201009/make-friend-ask-s… | /r/MensRights | 11/08/12 08:27 PM |
| 2 | First Principles Approach to Social Problem SolvingThis is a very long winded response, but as someone whose living is made through research and sees science attacked on a daily basis, by people whose line of reasoning follows yours. I feel the need to get this point across as vividly and descriptive as possible. There’s a TL;DR at the bottom that sums my point across; the rest is my train of thought and method of reaching my conclusion: First, what do you mean by social and financial problem solving? Are you trying to optimize human lifespan? L… | /r/MensRights | 07/08/12 09:21 PM |
| 1 | “Why Don’t Feminists Ever Talk About Men?” On the Idea of Unbalanced Activism. | Shadow's CrescentWhite people don’t have a racial identity. The only heritage they have is the appropriation of culture from the people of color they’ve subjugated. Yes, cultural heritages — the Irish, Scots, Spaniards, US-ians, and such — exist, but they don’t seem to be enough. White Supremacy as an institution is especially fucked up because Whiteness as a positive concept doesn’t really exist; it’s essentially the cultural personification of Gluttony and Greed. It's like this person has never studied Europea… | /r/MensRights | 06/08/12 02:35 PM |
| 35 | An Open Letter to the r/MensRights Community from a "Radical" Feminist (please read, not a "wow you guys are awful and bad!!!)Here's a succinct line of reasoning of why some find false accusations highly abhorrent: Let me ask you a difficult ethical question: If you could incarcerate a rapist, but doing so required allowing another innocent man to get raped, would you do it? What if you could incarcerate 10 rapists, so long as an innocent had to suffer the same trauma? What if you were that innocent person, that had to relive your horrors? I know what it was like too. I did not receive much of any help either, and this… | /r/MensRights | 29/07/12 05:02 AM |
| 62 | Male and turn down sex? Check your privilege.How much cognitive dissonance do you have to have in order to justify "my body, my decision" with regards to defending abortion rights and emphasizing law resources against sexual assault, and then turn around and say that a man exercising his own bodily sovereignty is an exercise of male privilege?! Maybe she should read the following excerpts from "Power of the Powerless." (http://history.hanover.edu/courses/excerpts/165havel.html) and realize the overwhelming fucking absurdities her ideology … | /r/MensRights | 27/07/12 06:13 PM |
| 2 | This girl has been trying to tell my friends that male opinions are universally invalid. I don't know how to compose a response. Can someone help?Tell her that opinion in itself is hetero-normative and bigoted unless she also thinks gay men's opinions are also universally invalid, in which case you tell her she's an even bigger bigot, and walk away. If she presses on, tell her you do not feel comfortable talking to her any-more and end it there. Logical argument can only convince those who use logic. Hysterics deserve equally absurd arguments, in this case a loaded question. | /r/MensRights | 25/07/12 02:59 PM |
| 0 | "Girls don't need Obama's help with math": Fifty-seven percent of college degrees and 60% of graduate degrees go to women.A see a sort of silver lining to a fair amount of the Title IX promotion that's happening. If more women are encouraged to go into STEM, they will probably be more likely to go into the more advanced biological fields (Biochemistry, Neurological and Cognitive sciences) since they already dominate those. Women who are educated in those fields will be more exposed to more scientific literature that debunks a lot of feminist myths on how children develop gender identity and physical attraction (htt… | /r/MensRights | 19/07/12 01:44 AM |
| 2 | U.S. says Texas police department discriminated against women - by requiring they pass the same physical test required for men.False analogy based on false facts, because when it comes to a woman choosing to abort a pregnancy, spousal notification laws (much less consent) were deemed unconstitutional in Planned Parenthood v. Danforth. Much of the legal arguments based on not requiring consent or notification involve the mother's right to privacy and sovereignty over her body (based on interpretations of the 9th, 14th and 13th amendments respectively) Things that do not involve the father. So legally, the father is not a… | /r/MensRights | 07/07/12 05:43 PM |

| 1 | Gay Men as Feminist "Allies"I'm openly Bi, and this story is actually similar to the same reasons why I stopped following feminism and waving its banner. About 2 1/2 years ago, my gay friend asks me to be wingman for him at a gay-friendly bar for the night; I was not out yet to others close to me, but I agreed, the basic arrangement that if there were any straight girls or other bi-guys there with someone he was interested in, I would entertain them while he did his thing. During the night, I got some repetitive physical a… | /r/MensRights | 17/05/12 04:37 PM |
| 15 | We need divorce reform.While prenuptial agreements are a step in the right direction, they're numerous ways a court can invalidate some of the clauses or the entire agreement: 1) The agreement does not meet all elements for it to have been made in good faith - In order to be valid, a prenuptial agreement must be in writing, notarized, and executed by both parties with independent and competent legal representation separately and voluntarily. In addition, both parties are requierd to fully disclose their assets. Thus t… | /r/MensRights | 16/05/12 04:34 PM |
| 2 | A thoughtful deconstruction of the movie "Bully": "Yes, the majority of bullies are straight males. But the majority of bullying victims are also straight males. This, in a nutshell, is why identity politics is not the solution to every problem."I like 1585, mostly because I'm liberal politically, but agree that PC does more to hurt human rights and equality of opportunity then help it in those contexts. Unfortunately the guy who writes the blog updates really infrequently (Like, once every 3 months), mostly because he's busy as a high school English teacher IRL. | /r/MensRights | 15/05/12 10:45 PM |
| 2 | A thoughtful deconstruction of the movie "Bully": "Yes, the majority of bullies are straight males. But the majority of bullying victims are also straight males. This, in a nutshell, is why identity politics is not the solution to every problem."I had a pretty similar experience in high school as well. The point of the author that I wanted to emphasize is that by focusing on special cases of those who've been victimized by bullying, you fail to find the general causes and general solutions (or if there are none) to the problem. I think an applicible quote is from Jon Stewart during the Rally for Restore Sanity: "The press can hold its magnifying glass up to our problems and illuminate problems heretofore unseen, or it can use its magnif… | /r/MensRights | 15/05/12 07:56 PM |
