Double Standards

The fatherhood point disgusts me. About a year ago I was drugged and raped (I'm gay if that matters) and if that had resulted in a child I would have to have paid child support. Yet, if I had gone to court, I would never have had a chance and been laughed off because "men can't be raped".

I believe in equality for all, but these radical feminists are asking for superiority rather than consistent treatment of all: regardless of race, gender, sexuality, religion etc.

Even though I'm politically affiliated as a "leftie", this neo-liberal shit pisses me off to no end.

I'm not arguing with OP, but I wish whomever created the graphic would use spell check ("can't rcover money of his business from the government due to his gender") and grammar check ("has a harder time to get welfare"). Sloppily created, grammatically incorrect statements and graphics do not advance the discussion, but they do harm the perception of men advocating for men's rights.

Needs bullet points, it's hard to read the wall of text. Message is awesome though.

The points become less factual as the list goes on. IMO

I say that all who want equality, regardless of gender, start calling ourselves Humanists.

I'd like to point out the sloppy use of 'rights' in this:

For instance, if men commit suicide at three times the higher rate than women do, that might be a symptom of rights denied in important areas of men's lives, but it does not itself in any way indicate that his 'rights' have been violated.

You forgot: alimony and being thrown to debtors prison if not pay child support and/or alimony

For information, according to Wikipedia British Airways revoked their men beside children policy in August 2010.

Are there really only two domestic violence shelters for male victims in the US? :(

I'm totally okay with not being allowed to sit next to children on airplanes thing. I hate being near the little shits (but that's just be of course).

I'm curious about the free birth control.

Feminists should be presented with these facts, if they weren't stubborn knuckleheads who would deny this.
