What is the best men's rights website/blog, in your opinion? Which one showcases exactly what the men's rights movement is all about?

Trust no one and question everything. There are quite a few more popular and supposed mens rights groups that shame men badly and who are attempting to get men to change into what feminism wants.

Here's my advice. Listen to and read everything, then parse critically. Doesnt take much to separate the wheat from the chaff. Most of them are filled with white knights anyways.

Futrelle's blog (ManBoobz) has a good list of MRA sites - look on the sidebar under "Boob Roll". He has to have a good list, because that's where he gets all his material from.

Fathers and Families is a good start.

I also like Feminist Critics for general criticisms on feminism. Not exactly an MRM site but it often touches on men's issues.

I kinda miss "The Female Misogynist", to be honest.

Daily doses of sardonic, sarcastic, vitriolic bashing seems somehow less of a guilty pleasure when it's an intelligent female doing the ranting.

If you think this is gross, Germaine Greer has some choice words for you: “if you think you are emancipated, you might consider the idea of tasting your own menstrual blood – if it makes you sick, you’ve a long way to go, baby,” she wrote in 1970.

Oh, the horrors of patriarchy! Those mean old men conspired for centuries to prevent us women from the joy of tasting our own menstrual blood! We’ll never be free until our mouths are filled with our own blood!

1969: Men put men on the moon.

1970: Women taste their own menstrual blood.

Gee, how could I possibly not respect the amazing accomplishments of feminism?

I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: “O Lord, make my enemies ridiculous.” And God granted it. ~Voltaire.

www.avoiceformen.com is the only one that does activism.

If you want theory and background, watch all of Girlwriteswhat's videos on YouTube.

For activism and getting involved, go to AVFM.

Don't forget Angry Harry. One of the oldest, but still one of the best.

If you're asking people for a personal opinion about what blogs they like, the question is unnecessary - just look at what they've linked to in this subreddit. Those links get both upvotes and downvotes, so evidently not everybody here likes the same thing, though you can tell what's more and less popular in the aggregate.

If you want an ex cathedra (from my computer chair) pronouncement about which blogs represent the orthodox men's rights movement and which ones are heretics and false prophets, I'm not qualified or mandated to say that, and nobody else here is either. The manosphere isn't a cathedral, it's more like a collection of bars, ranging from elegant to seedy, where all sorts of interesting conversations can be found. I link here to conversations I personally found enlightening or useful, but my intention is to share some knowledge with other individuals who might find it useful, it's not a meta motivation of trying to define what /r/mr or the MRM is all about.

One place I'd make an exception to and denounce from the pulpit, for whatever it's worth, is The Good Man Project, a shiny, expensive edifice that's been put up in front of the manosphere to attract the tourists. It's been decked out to look like a bar, but it only serves grape juice, and all of the conversations there are supervised by a volunteer staff of Victorian ladies to ensure that you don't mention any unorthodox facts or come to any unorthodox conclusions. Actually, if you want ex cathedra statements about what the MRM is all about or should be all about, the GMP is a good place to ask, as they're more sure about it than most people here would claim to be.

Pelle Billing - Gender Liberation Beyond Feminism, it was my introduction to the movement.

This one. The biggest and broadest in the world.

I am not a huge fan of any men's rights blog I am aware of. Maybe Girlwriteswhat is ok. Honestly the best (very) tangentially MRA site I know of is http://maggiemcneill.wordpress.com . In a few of her articles she made some very uncalled for remarks about negative views of sexually submissive men. But otherwise she has never posted anything I strongly disagree with or overly exaggerated her points.

There aren't any MR forums, websites etc. that isn't mostly occupied by embittered bigots, but r/mensrights tends to have the most rational and cogent users. r/mensrights has a nice mix of different content and if you ignore all the rape comparisons, rape marginalizations, rape apologia, rape definition questionings and pretty much every topic that tries to 'soften' rape, you have a pretty decent forum.
