100% they got banned after posting that and so did all the people who commented in support of it. That's one of the worst subs on reddit when it comes to protecting females and proactively banning people who aren't femnazi's. After all it's got that one mod guy who pretends he's a black woman.
well duh. You're a man. You aren't supposed to exist online and especially not have a avenue to expose sexist bullshit that men deal with on a constant basis.
It was basically some woman made an off the cuff comment about a guys baldness (which he could t control) and when he threw an insult back about a female colleagues weight she cried wolf and went to HR stating he can’t make comments about her like that.
While I understand the motives behind this, I feel conflicted. I guess it's a fair play but just returning an insult with another insult to someone of a different gender just feels like a bad idea in general whether it's fair or not. This is kind of the stuff that can make the MRA movement look bad considering that the media platforms and to some extent our society views the world like a "patriarchy", even when that's debatable, and therefore this is considered punching down. So I guess I have mixed feelings on this one. I know this might not be the most popular opinion but it's how I feel.

Feminists, women, and their white knight defenders need to stop holding men to standards they're personally and collectively unwilling to meet.
Yeah, an eye for an eye just makes the whole world blind.
The reaction is part of the payoff for the insult because it gives attention to the insulter. Completely ignore insults so you don't feed the ugly troll, or if you want to learn from the experience, view the insult as telling you more about the insulter than about yourself: insults should never be taken personally, because they are not actually about you but about the other person's personal issues. To someone who thinks Twiggy is normal, everyone else is fat in comparison: it's all so relative that it is meaningless.
At its most basic, regardless of whether the victim of an insult can help it or not, the intent of the insult is to hurt someone. When was that ever a good look?

Baldness is uncontrollable, whilst weight is controllable

I met a new coworker last week, she was talking to another guy about how they both wanted to lose weight etc.
They went to McDonald's for lunch.

A woman at a party once tried to tell Winston Churchill off for being drunk.
His reply was along the lines of "I may be drunk but in the morning I will be sober, yet you will still be ugly."
If you are going to bother insulting someone back at all (and why would you?) then at least do it well!

That's what we are pressing against... The 'media bias' against men.
Considering how rampant and disgusting that bias is... This post perfectly fits the agenda..
