Thousands of dads are left in shock as DIY paternity tests soar. Up to 30,000 tests are being performed every year, says Alphabiolabs. In the UK about 750,000 babies are born every year. Feminists want the test to be illegal without the written consent of the mother.

Mother-of-two, 40, falsely branded a neighbour a sex offender because he 'made too much noise building a guinea pig hutch in his garden'. It seems for many women if they do not get their way they make a false sex allegation knowing a man is not protected by the law.

Actually in the past everyone wore skirts. Pants were invited because they are easier to work in and are warmer. Pants are harder to make so women still wore skirts. Today in places where it is really hot men still wear skirts. 100 years ago all children wore dresses until a certain age. It was the clothing industry that gendered childrens clothes so they can sell more. This boy is fighting for equal rights in a way that suits him. He's not trying to make all boys wear skirts. He's jus saying if girls have a choice so should boys.

[–]shadowguyver 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It should not matter what people wear as long as its not exceptionally indecent. I loved wearing my kilt when I fit in it and look forward to the day I can again.

[–]Lion_amongst_gods 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

You go boy! In fact, skirts are the healthier option for your testicles. If at all the school objects, just say you're wearing a kilt and it's offensive to deny you your traditional outfit.

[–]Eskoot195382 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

This reminds me of that time a load of boys at a school in the UK were told they weren't allowed to wear shorts in the summer iirc so they wore skirts instead. I always find it a bit ridiculous that women can wear traditionally male clothes but men can't wear traditionally female clothes

[+]LonelyBobcat0 points 5 years ago [recovered] (17 children) | Copy Link

This is not men's rights really. It is okay that men and women have different types of clothes that are considered socially acceptable. Men's rights does not mean removing men's culture, it does not mean removing any distinctions between men and women, whether cultural or biological.

[–]d_nijmegen 14 points15 points16 points 5 years ago (11 children) | Copy Link

I don't think you've been awake in class.

Having people gatekeep what you wear based on gender. Definitely is a men's rights matter.

Just not something you deal with personally. But a bit of empathy does wonders!

[–]Dls95405 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago* (10 children) | Copy Link

Civilization 'gatekeeps' us all in myriad ways, constantly. Feminizing boys while telling them that to be a confident leader is 'toxic masculinity' is a ubiquitous way today, and it disgusts the hell out of me. It disgusts most women too, as we hear all the time they want masculine men.

[–]Gingerchaun 4 points5 points6 points 5 years ago (9 children) | Copy Link

And some men are different. Some men dont care what kind of man a woman wants. Some men want to be able to put on a skirt.

[+]LonelyBobcat1 points 5 years ago [recovered] (7 children) | Copy Link

> Some men don't care what kind of man a woman wants. Some men want to be able to put on a skirt.

That's fine, but that doesn't mean the whole world has to change to accommodate it. That isn't a matter of 'empathy', it's just a guy who wants to wear a skirt for christs sake. if I hire someone do I have to keep them employed if they show up in a skirt every day? How is a school with actual uniforms any different? Empathy isn't for teenagers who aren't trans but like the idea of wearing a skirt. That isn't an issue of empathy, that is an issue of just allowing anyone to do anything they want.

Wearing a skirt is not a men's rights issue.

[–]d_nijmegen 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago* (6 children) | Copy Link

Not being allowed something because you're a man 100% is.

It's the "because you are a man" that does it. Not being allowed a pair of pants was definitely a feminist issue. They did get the memo on this...

It's a principle, we are allowed whatever we want, same as women. All I want is a choice to make. Not to be made for me, like so much other things men get no say over. This is a easy one to fix.

Like in a Scandinavian country where women got skirts as uniform and men had to wear black pants in ANY heat. They opted for skirts to stick it to their employer. These things ARE about our rights.

Just don't fight it.

[+]LonelyBobcat-2 points 5 years ago [recovered] (5 children) | Copy Link

Just don't fight it.

Thats rapist talk.

It's the "because you are a man" that does it.

That still isn't men's rights. I mean first off, you have the right to wear whatever you want. That doesn't mean that someone has to hire you, or keep you employed, or let you into their school, whether public or private. This isn't men's right, its men erasure.

[–]Gingerchaun 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

It kind of does mean they have to let you into public schools. Hence the public part of that sentence. Could you imagine if a man was denied access to a public sidewalk because hes wearing a skirt? You paid for those sidewalks already and they ain't gonna let you use em?

[+]LonelyBobcat-2 points 5 years ago [recovered] (2 children) | Copy Link

You pay for the justice system but that doesn't mean you get to swear in court. You pay for schools, but that doesn't mean they have to let you dress any way you want.

[–]Gingerchaun -1 points0 points1 point 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Actually, if you testify in court you have to swear(that's a little joke). You should be frightened by how much force a court can enact on you for not adhering to decorum. Contempt of court in some jurisdictions can last indefinitely until the contempt is purged.

I pay for public schools so that any child can recieve a bare minimum education.

[–]d_nijmegen 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I lost interest in you with the rapist talk.

I see you're too much of a "my rights activist" to care beyond what other people think about rights in general. If it looks good to you, there's no problem.

Have a wonderful life.

[–]Dls95405 -2 points-1 points0 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

That's fine, but that's not what I'm talking about and you know it.

[–]Lion_amongst_gods 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

I'd agree with you but women get a pass wearing men's attire, so the men should too. Whether they choose to, is up to them.

[+]LonelyBobcat1 points 5 years ago [recovered] (3 children) | Copy Link

women wearing mens attire doesn't change any of my points. Honestly, men are being made into slaves by their ex-wives and their government, forced to pay for kids that aren't theirs, forcing to pay for kids that they never get to see, and having their genitals mutilated at birth, but somehow 'wearing skirts' has become such a hot topic in this community and it drives me insane. No school or business should have to accept men cross dressing. Different cultural norms for the genders is not sexism, its not a rights issue, it is just feminist bullshit to think that we need to be culturally welcome to dress as women. To erase our differences is to erase our identity. Go post on r/gendernonbinaryrights if thats what you're after.

[–]Lion_amongst_gods 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Being concerned about men's attire doesn't mean we don't care about the other stuff any more. You can walk and chew gum at the same time.

drives me insane

Be insane all you want, doesn't change anything about this sub.

No school or business should have to accept men cross dressing

If they accept women cross-dressing (so much so that it isn't considered cross dressing anymore), then they better accept men doing the same.

Different cultural norms for the genders is not sexism To erase our differences is to erase our identity

Fantastic! When are you gonna criminalise women wearing pants?

Go post on r/gendernonbinaryrights if thats what you're after.

Make me.

[+]LonelyBobcat1 points 5 years ago [recovered] (1 child) | Copy Link

Being purposely absurd doesnt make you sound more valid it just makes you sound more absurd. You can't walk and chew gum at the same time if you're just going to trip over your own shoes, and that's what this does, it makes the entire world look at Men's rights and laugh about how absurd they are. By all means, go where your skirt, you literally have the right to wear a skirt. I just also literally have the right to no you're being ridiculous and advancing a pointless cause that does nothing to actually help men, but in fact hurts them. Good luck with that. Also saying make me to something rhetorical really just makes you look like an ass.

Dressing like a girl has nothing to do with Men's Rights.

[–]peter_venture 4 points5 points6 points 5 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

But girls get to dress like boys and no one bats an eye. You really don't get it, do you?

[–]d_nijmegen 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

No they don't

[–]peter_venture 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I hope you mean no they don't get it, not no, girls don't wear boys clothing.

[–]d_nijmegen 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Read the rest of the responses on this. It's 50% me explaining this to them.

[+]CFEyeCare1 points 5 years ago [recovered] (1 child) | Copy Link

Girls dressing like boys has nothing to do with men's rights either. Pick your battles, man

[–]peter_venture 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

When girls can dress like boys, but boys can dress like girls. That is unequal treatment. This is EXACTLY a Mens Rights issue. Are you purposely being contrary? Please explain how it isn't, or stop posting.

You do know there are many battles, right? Different standards of dress is one of them. And it's a big one.

[–]bearstevenlee -5 points-4 points-3 points 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Skirts don't look good on men, especially if they have leg hair. Sounds like that boy wants to be (a wannabe) politically correct. He wants to be a part of something greater than himself.

[–]peter_venture 5 points6 points7 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Did you ever try to tell s woman she doesn't have the legs to wear a skirt/ dress? You'd never get away with it. Yet you want to use the same argument on boys and men? Sounds like that boy wants to take on some ages old sexism. You go, boy!
