Do any of you guys actually do something about the things you are complaining about?

iainmf · 2022-04-01T03:33:58+00:00

Simple thing that anyone can do. It will only take a few minutes. Write to your representative and ask them:

What is your party doing for men and boys?

SamaelET · 2022-03-31T23:18:23+00:00

I donate money to male victims service and try to talk about men's issues around me.

There is not much irl events. Mostly online or irl but by little groups where people trust each others. You don't want to risk being doxxed, or being thrown things at you.

Everything has to be done from scatch for MRAs without public fund and facing clear hostility.

kadk216 · 2022-03-31T23:51:08+00:00

To preface, I am a woman, but I make sure to bring up the topic in discussions where it’s relevant because so many people are ignorant of the problems. For example, I bring up the fact that there are hundreds of women’s shelters across the country and only 2 shelters in the entire US for men.

If there is more I could do to help I would gladly do so. I don’t think either sex should automatically get the benefit of the doubt, and it seems like usually women do by default. I personally know women that have taken their kids away from their father out of spite and it makes me mad because it would not be tolerated if a man did that. The double standards are so blatantly obvious and unjust.

Darkwolf90 · 2022-03-31T23:46:14+00:00

We could use technological advances(Social media) to congregate and discuss how to deal with our issues. The main problem is that many "men" feel and act in isolation. This is worsened by world wide attempts to prevent X/Y's to group together and overcome the engineered manipulation they're victim to. This could even be made far more effective by joining actual feminists, pro-black movements etc. (Egalitarians focused on over coming a particular subset of bigotry) and saying we'll fight back to back towards the same goal so neither one of us have to worry about being completely surrounded while getting better understanding of potential consequences that our own experiences and lack of could make us unaware of.

Chinny_YT · 2022-04-01T00:29:00+00:00

I made Men's rights videos ebfore my uni made me take them down

fanclockbedsheet · 2022-04-01T01:40:27+00:00

It's true most men could do more for ourselves, but is not as easy to do as it is to say. Although our views aren't really crazy, the current culture hates them, and if you're a guy with these views, you're a mysogynist, incel, potential terrorist, etc. It's not easy to share these views yet live a normal life.

It's why so many of us are happy women speak out on our issues, and why even tho the vast majority of men's rights supporters are men, on the activism side of it, there seems to be a disproportionate amount of women fighting for men.

iainmf · 2022-04-01T01:46:38+00:00

Since 2019 I have been pushing the New Zealand government to include men and boys in gender analysis guidelines.

I've also been pushing for the Human Rights Commission to do their job and monitor the human rights of men and boys. Part of that is these videos and this open letter.

I made this submission to the government about male victims of family and sexual violence.

I made a submission to the UN in 2018.

Glittering_Adagio758 · 2022-04-01T00:47:34+00:00

Well I think men have a right to talk about issues. Usually when men speak up about anything they get shut down by the feminist movement no matter what they do or say whether they relate to women that are victims or they make their own spaces they're demonized either way.

SpiderMantisXB1 · 2022-04-01T01:14:15+00:00

I wouldn’t attend a group or rally because I don’t really care what feminist say or do. Let them squawk it out. Their own logic isn’t sustainable and will fizzle out with time. I may entice a debate for fun just to fan the fire of some Left-winged purpled hair woman reiterate made up bullshit statistics she read of a Tweet. At then end of a day, it’s a catch 22 because real men don’t waste time or energy with their nonsense and focus instead on prosperity for themselves, the ones they love and their surroundings. Play the long game. Let the losers fight amongst themselves and the shock them all by winning in the end game of life.

StingRayFins · 2022-04-01T02:27:18+00:00

I do in my life 100%

I hold both my guy friends and girl friends accountable and call out bullshit when I see it.

nyarlathotep999 · 2022-04-01T06:34:28+00:00

Hell. Just changing years if not decades of societal conditioning in oneself is a huge step towards changing things. The first place anyone is enslaved is in their own mind. Many people ask why more men don't group up to change things, well it's impossible to liberate oneself from slavery if one doesn't even know they are a slave. Freeing oneself and talking to others cannot be downplayed because that's where it begins.

CaptainPrestedge · 2022-03-31T23:54:51+00:00

Because feminism has removed our abilty to do or say anything. If you say anything for mens rights you'll be dragged across hot coals as a misogynistic, women hating sexist. If you go to the lengths of raising funds, getting permission, support, kitting out and building a fully equipped shelter then feminists will ralley against it, chain themselves to it to prevent vulnerable men getting food and saftey then actually getting it shut down which is exactly what happened to the first male shelter not so long ago.

They don't even talk about equality anymore, they want supremacy which they already have and they want men gone.

ABCAJB · 2022-04-01T00:09:09+00:00

I would't call what a lot of people here are doing as complaining but to answer your question yes people are doing something about these issues.Even though i am not really an MRA i am doing a few things to push for equality such as raising awareness about the many inequalities in the law by letting people know about them on reddit and on other media.Another way i am doing something about these inequalities is by starting a petition to call on congress and the senate to either abolish the gender discriminatory selective service or to expand it everyone to finally achieve equality in the law and it would be great if people who haven't signed it yet to sign it to send a message to congress and the senate that discriminatory laws can not stay that way.

I wrote a book and published it on Amazon, founded a website that presents data and analysis, wrote articles with data and analysis, and am sharing them weekly wherever I can (I am a published, award-winning author, who published articles in top-notch newspapers, but this type of data is banned and censored, I tried my best but no editor will publish such articles, realistic data and analysis about men, women and their relations are repressed, so I do my best to disseminate it single-handedly).

I'm also running several social media forums to let men and women talk so that women will be exposed to what men have to say, and to information that refutes the terrible beliefs feminism spreads regarding men, as women are kept by feminism in complete darkness without being aware of how much is being censored by feminism, in the tens of thousands of social media environments and media outlets they are surrounded with. But these forums haven't taken off yet, I'm still trying. Women who function as moderators and admins and are influenced by radical hostile feminism, are everywhere, and they ban any invitation to women to join a mutual conversation with man. Posts are simply deleted and memberships cancelled. Women are currently unreachable - it's almost as if millions are in mental captivity because of the feminist censoring around them, which they don't even know about - the women who are influenced by feminism make sure to delete anything within seconds, before any woman or girl even notices that something was censored. They are unaware that they live in an aggressively filtered reality (this can very easily cause one to develop a delusional of even paranoid perspective about reality, specifically about men and the relations between the sexes; then such a perspective would motivate a woman to perpetuate the isolation, believing she is "protecting women". This dynamics currently might mean that the situation is irreversible and the consequence would be eventually the end of the relations between the sexes - they have been declining for a decade and a half in every respect, while homosexual relations doubled, so this is not an effect caused by technology - gays and lesbians are using the same types of apps as heteros. It is caused by feminism and by its control over women through the power of social media, this social-media power also giving power over traditional media to create a complete seal. But I'm trying to remain optimistic).

But I'm not an MRA, I'm what you might call a lovist. I believe in one movement for both sexes, based simply on love, that talks about the rights and humanity of both - I don't believe in copying feminist separatism, feminist separatism being the source of almost all the problems that both sexes have been facing for more than a decade now in their relations. I must have spent some $2,000 by now and a lot of work hours on all this effort, to reach out to women and men and encourage both to have a conversation together, where women will hear men as well and not only the other way. Women are kept in isolation from men's discourse about the relations between the sexes. Tens of millions of them, trapped in censored, sealed environments in social and traditional media, where they are not allowed to be exposed to men's situation, feelings, hardship and point of view, causing them to join feminist brutality out of false beliefs about men and relations with men, which then causes men to distant themselves, and a cycle of escalating hostility is formed, all starting with feminist separatism, with its false depiction of men to women, and its powerful ability to keep women exposed only to its messages by censoring any authentic male voice and not allowing concrete data from studies to reach millions of women at any point. But I have not given up yet.

oafsalot · 2022-04-01T09:26:18+00:00

I dontate, I advocate, I spread the message.

But then I have found that any real efforts get jumped on by anti-MRA feminists who have no limits on what they will do to prevent mens-suffrage.

DIES-_-IRAE · 2022-04-01T10:49:19+00:00

I hold women accountable IRL.

No pussy passes, no casual misandry, and no jokes.

Treat women how Feminists treat men, and you get results.

Audiotune2 · 2022-03-31T23:16:13+00:00

Really nothing us average ones can do except hope that one day things change for the better as for why some of us snap at female supporters we'll try going to one of those battered women shelters or support groups as a men you may find the same treatment there.

ManofGod1000 · 2022-04-01T01:11:54+00:00

I have ghosted society and realize that many things are not going to change, unless a majority of women make it happen. If they do not do that, like going down to the family or divorce court building and dismantling them brick by brick, nothing will change.

thatone_good_guy · 2022-04-01T01:20:14+00:00

I'm pushing for Aurora to include help and publicity for male sexual assault which they include as a line of small text at the bottom of their posters and realistically don't. Also trying to change the stigma around the base assumption of the sexual and agressive man as well as the stigma around sexual assault, it happens equally and I provide all the proof I can to those that don't believe it.

hehimCA · 2022-04-01T01:42:28+00:00

Yes have spent many many hours with nonprofits helping boys and men.

ThrowawayGhostGuy1 · 2022-04-01T12:47:07+00:00

Why does a group of men venting their emotions offend you?

Separate_Natural_368 · 2022-04-01T00:16:18+00:00

I really don’t know what to do honestly it’s like no one even cares anyway

UnfurtletDawn · 2022-04-01T01:03:51+00:00

The issue often is that when people make some event it gets stormed by angry mob.

SnooMarzipans5669 · 2022-04-01T01:35:04+00:00

Hi. Great question. Yes, I speak up about circumcision now.

Neat_Lingonberry8010 · 2022-04-01T08:28:24+00:00

Fuck off

Razorbladekandyfan · 2022-04-04T11:18:52+00:00

More than you ever have or ever will do about men's rights.

PQKN051502 · 2022-04-01T07:09:49+00:00

I promote organizations helping male victims of domestic abuse and sexual abuse. I also promote pages and websites those are helpful to men and male victims.
I am advising men on how to stand up for themselves; how to protect themselves from abusive people, manipulation, and harm; how to self-care (health, mental health); and how to self-improve. I also try to give advice and help abused men to get them out of bad situations.
I try my best to introduce men's rights ideologies and points to everyone, as many people as possible. I want more people to become MRAs, good MRAs.
I am anti-misandry. Every time I see a misandrist, I whack them. I call that whack-a-misandrist. I debate and argue and try to change misandrists' mind and turn them into better people. I protest against any kind of misandry. I speak up about misandry. I call out and criticize the misandry of anyone.
I am against men's wrongs and I criticize men's wrongs so we can improve and do better. I support men's rights and want to improve men's reputation and image.
I am building myself to be successful, famous, and influential so I can introduce my men's rights ideologies, and use my platform to help men and mentor men. I want to change the world.
I also try my best to fight homophobia and transphobia. LGBTQ+ men are men and as an MRA, I of course also help them and support them. By the way, I am a gay male myself.

The misconception people have about men's rights activists is we don't support women's rights.
The truth is we want equality for everyone. We support LGBTQ rights, we support men's rights, we support women's rights. We support everyone's rights, and we focus on men and boys. We are anti female-supremacy and we don't support male supremacy either. We want equality for men and boys.

This thread is wholesome 💙

Stand_Alone50 · 2022-04-01T19:40:02+00:00

Curently am trying to be a good role model to my peers and people around me just hoping for a lil bit of change of perspective

Billy-Batdorf · 2022-04-01T21:05:23+00:00

I've written legislators and actively debated policy decisions in family court using my real name, I volunteered for suicide hotline support, I'm active on a survivor forum. I studied social work but left because of the contradictions in that industry, but I would've liked to help professionally.

RockmanXX · 2022-04-03T08:20:26+00:00

and when given advice to turn around their situation, they snap at female supporters

What Female Supporters?

Adanu0 · 2022-04-03T13:39:06+00:00

There's always the little things, but every single time we try organized RL activities, we get feminazis at our door harassing us and using tons of energy to censor and destroy us. Multiply that by decades, and that wears down all but the more resolute souls.

Try creating even a small conference for the MRM when most people willing to host such events will have literal campaigns of feminazis calling in telling them we're fucking terrorists and shit. They shut it down out of hand, or they extort us for more security money. If that doesn't work, they show up at the event itself and harass and indirectly assault us and call us misogynists for simply wanting a level playing field.

WEEBforLIFE24 · 2022-04-03T17:29:12+00:00

tf can we do,if we stand up for ourselves society just tells us to sit down and calls us mysoginists
