| 15 | Halle Berry sees the Flaws in Child Support after being forced to Pay Child Support.Look into filing a lien on any property she owns. Usually it is a small fee to file, and you (should) just have to have proof of debt. Court-ordered child support not being paid is a debt. She will not be able to sell or transfer ownership of property without paying the lien. After so many years you could legally seize her property. Not a lawyer, I just read a lot. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 11/02/21 05:15 AM |

Rosie the riveter didn't last but a few days to a couple weeks before she quit because the job was too hard. The picture of a woman delivering ice that was so popular had the same situation. I believe she quit at the end of her first day. Women have this belief that they can do anything a man can and its about as absurd as one can believe.

The other women in the office purposefully threw applications from single fathers in the trash or would "misplace" them so money could go to single mothers instead. What is sad is that this is completely believable. What is sadder is that the friend tried to speak up but was browbeaten by the other women in the office.

It also comes in useful when we want to hunt or protect ourselves, but that isn't really pertinent. And yes, this right has been exercised in the past, so it isn't a matter of it maybe happening at some arbitrary point in the future.

Specifically, regarding the historical requirement to being a citizen and having the right to vote. It is historically a requirement for a voting citizen to serve when the country calls either voluntarily or by draft. Should women also bear this responsibility in order to have their "equal rights"? | /r/MensRights | 04/04/20 05:03 AM |

| 2 | Feminist Letter To This Subreddit In GeneralCould it be that a good part of women are expected to also clean and do housework and chores more often? How much of that accounts for the difference? I love this point because it ignores so much of what men do and are expected to do. Men tend to be stuck with the outdoor chores that aren't counted as "chores" or "housework".

| 5 | Apparently in Japan you need a women’s only carriage because women can’t tell the difference between accidental contact and sexual assault.The point is more "a subset of a certain population" tends to do things, but many try to extend it out and make it about the whole group and say its "racist". But try explaining that we are talking about subsets instead of an entire group, and people will often (intentionally or unintentionally) misunderstand and continue thinking an entire race is being blamed. It's all very tiring. | /r/MensRights | 06/03/20 08:01 PM |

The male team took less guaranteed pay, and higher pay for wins. The female team opted to bargain for higher guaranteed pay, but less money for wins. I am not a fan of protecting people from decisions they made.

Oh, sure, no one fair wouldn't support equality. Now look at how they use it. We could go into the "equality of opportunity" vs "equality of outcome" debate. Parity or Equity used to be the terms used for an "equality of outcome". Feminism pushes the "equality of outcome". This means they focus on equal outcomes, at the expense of many other factors.

There are still some that stick to the label and what it used to be, but those seem to have largely been ejected and shunned from the movement.

A bias is the tendency to approve of one thing over another due to internal preference, which is exactly what is happening.

However, no injunction was filed, which means if a draft is called today, males can be conscripted in the US. | /r/MensRights | 28/02/19 06:33 PM |

| 26 | NBC offended that MRA's are the ones making progress on anti-male US draftLol. The first sentence is set up to misdirect the reader: "More than 45 years after the military draft ended, a federal judge has ruled that a law requiring men but not women to register for it is unconstitutional." Correct way to say it: "More than 45 years since the end of the last draft [...]" Selective Service is the "list" that is maintained in order to pick who is going to be drafted when a draft is implemented. So many people are misinformed. | /r/MensRights | 28/02/19 05:08 AM |

Male descendants of Abraham (Hebrews), as well as any male born in their homes, and their slaves, must be circumsized. So, if you are not Hebrew, do not live in a Hebrew's home, and are not a slave to a Hebrew, there is no reason to circumcise. You cannot jump into an agreement you were never a part of. | /r/MensRights | 27/02/19 05:37 AM |

The way I look at it, every one has the right to buy or not buy products they want. They also have the right to not support a company for any reason they like. I agree that movements shouldn't bully.

Being told to "man up" does not mean "be masculine", it is telling men to shut up and accept their lot. Edit: As is normal, I think a great example is to flip the genders to examine the issue.

However, I was thinking that maybe on articles where the media is supporting an issue of ours, we should not archive. By not archiving those pages, we give that media company clicks and ad revenue which may help slightly to bring them to make more articles on the subject.

Further unnecessary restrictions on gun ownership (autos are banned with few exceptions, most gun owners are fine banning bump stocks, etc), or censorship of the internet.

Men together will do traditional men things more often (eg car repair, wrestling/roughhousing, sports, etc) which are more physical things.

| 1 | Instead of bringing awareness that men too, are sexually assaulted, men should talk about "How I will change"I won't change. That's just it. I don't sexually harass or assault anyone. I don't allow it in my presence and discourage it when the topic arises. What do we need to do? Put on superhero outfits and battle sexual assaults like batman and spiderman? We live our lives as normal people and the vast majority of men (I hope to think) already do good things, or at least don't rape/assault. Don't tell me to change when I have done right by you.

'The point at which the average young man becomes ‘marriageable’ appears to be earnings of $40,000 a year or more.'Marriage rates seem higher while I was in. E-1-E-3's marry just to get out of the barracks and get BAH pay. Divorce rates are also high. Wonder why? Dude gone 6 months-1 year and their wifes cheat, some justifying it saying "Well he isn't here." Or "i bet he is cheating on me." First, I know and you know why he isn't home. Second, who is he able to cheat on you with, a desert queen or his rifle? | /r/MensRights | 15/10/17 12:11 AM |
| 1 | Feminism doesn't existI really am trying to see your point of view, but I just can't with the first or second wave feminism. But with the new wave, I can definitely see a point. "Manhunting" definitely is on the table, what with men being hunted down and destroyed (doxxed) if they dare to question feminism and are found out. And men generally have little-to-no recourse for wrongs commited on them, and few take interest in their well-being... But all that said, I don't think first or second wave did too much wrong, bu… | /r/MensRights | 01/10/17 11:16 AM |
| 1 | Feminism doesn't existI think you are confusing new wave feminism with all feminism. Yeah, the first couple generations weren't perfect but they were just looking for rights men had and they didn't. We should respect that at least, I believe. And you are right, I don't believe men "subjugated" women quite in the sense they like to portray. If that was the truth, there would never have been female rulers. I believe men and women had roles to play that each were (generally) better suited for. Women, in my experience, t… | /r/MensRights | 01/10/17 11:01 AM |

The one exception I have is that the fetus inside the woman is NOT 100% hers if she consented to sex with a man and he wants the child. Just think about it, bodily autonomy means you have the right to say what happens to your body and I am right there with that, but when two people make a baby, there can be a bond between father and child (even if people think there isn't one).

That is how the -law- works, not what is just, or how justice is dealt. To be just, she should not have attacked. Justice is when the court decides that she committed battery. And, to be fair, the dude did walk away after the first bit, she followed him. After that he just went passive. Yeah, he could have kept walking but she was -not- going to stop. | /r/MensRights | 01/10/17 05:19 AM |

"Equifax Chief Information Security Officer Was An Affirmative Action Hire"I have always thought Affirmative Action was one of the worst ideas humans have ever had. Qualified people? Nah, not enough (blacks, women, other) here. Let's get us some of them. Seriously? Then, how would you feel when you got that job?

I would advise to do a free consultation with a lawyer and see what they would recommend you read, collect, save, whatever.
