Me. Poisoning men is bad. You. How dare you be outraged! Your partner would hate you if she knew. She knows and doesn't care. She's a normal person, not some schizoid psycho who thinks poisoning people is normal.

This hypothetical woman is mentally ill because she threatens to poison people. You shouldn't be with people who threaten you with death if you do something that they don't like. You dont need to dive deep. People who threaten you with death for something minor are bad people.

Yeah, sadly there's an idea that women are nice creatures who never cause harm without a man being involved so they can be as threatening as they want. I am very suspicious about the murder/ suicide rate of men and women. If you add the two up, more men die from women in abusive relationships than women from men. I suspect that a lot of male suicides are actually male poisonings.
/r/MensRights10/11/24 02:12 PM

If you have good experience and ideas on how to avoid poisoning I think it would be valuable to share that. E.g. placement of cameras or how to manage being in the workplace while being threatened with poison.

If you're taking on the feminine gender role of managing the home, you shouldn't also be taking on the masculine gender role of being a provider. It's unfair by her to expect to provide for her like a man and manage the home like a woman. You have limited time, it costs you parts of your life to work hard and manage the home. She's taking advantage of you. Be clear about that. If she wants to live the traditional life, she needs to commit and give more. She doesn't, so she gets to pay equally.

Yeah. I do think having female pilots could be valuable, but they should have to meet the same standards as the male pilots. Rushing in incompetent people to fill a quota is just gonna get you dead passengers.

The CDC tends to downplay it in public stats, since with lifetime stats men show lower rates, while with yearly stats men show equal or higher rates. If you look at yearly stats the rate is similar. People tell men a lot their victimization isn't real which makes lifetime stats weaker.

Sure, I just thought it interesting that it was so there for domestic violence as well. A common feminist claim is that women are non violent and don't murder their husbands.

For those reading this, these people are from the pro male collective, who were annoyed when one of our mods, blue orange, was diplomatic when crushing feminists in debates and said to be polite to them, which led to them deciding that rather than fighting feminists the most productive thing would be to attack mras. All of our mods are firmly pro mra, and don't have obviously anti mra views.

Women made lots of major inventions since a lot of scientists are women. I as an mra am against sexist assumptions that women don't invent significant things. Yes, losing all male inventors would be bad, and likely more chaotic than losing female inventors as women scientists tend to go be doctor's and stuff rather than scientists generally, but many women have invented major useful things.

It's great you're here to help, I'll list a few of the common issues men face that you can help with. A lot of mental health aid is geared more towards women, with a big focus on talk therapy. More active push towards male centered mental health care would help, with less focus on talking about feelings and more focus on tools to help people improve their mindset would help. Often men go to get help, and are turned off by sexism and ineffective help. More support for men who act within tradition…

There's a lot of echo chambers where you can vent about issues if you're female. They have many, many subs to talk about things and be sexist and have no one call them out on it. What she wants is for reddit in general to be a safe space, not just designated vent places, which is a bit more unreasonable. If you talk in a public place, people off both genders will mention their issues.

Innocence and guilt are utilitarian determinations. We need to weigh them against the cost of prosecution and court and hurting those involved. There's a real human cost to false rape accusations. It's a judgement call whether a situation is rape, and the injury to the involved parties should be considered.

She stated in her police report that she repeatedly verbally indicated he should stop, that he forced her to wash her face of a cumshot, and that she didn't come onto him at all. Kobe said she was flirting with him and touching his genitals and didn't verbally say no. That's not agreement on a series of events. They disagreed. And, she later said at least one of the above things was a lie, that she washed her own face of her own choice.

Good catch. I do think it's interesting what she says in her rap. If it was consensual, why did she have bleeding? Part of that's probably because she had sex with a lot of people including a person the day before and after. But I wouldn't be surprised if the sex with kobe was rougher than she wanted so she regretted it after the fact.

He didn't confess. He made a super vague statement as part of a settlement to get her to drop speaking. People often lie in such statements, so it's not a reliable indicator of truth. Anyway, as he said shaq did, he probably mostly wanted to pay her off so he could get back with his wife. The lady had sex with someone the day after, and the day before and so liked sex, and liked sex with celebs according to her friend, and stayed late to meet Kobe and set him up in a room far from her bodyguards…

Women could use the money of their partners to buy luxuries and pretty things and things they desired even without running up debts or doing petty thieving. There was a social expectation (and is one today) that men would pay for women and be responsible for financially supporting them. If the woman wanted to go to extremes, the law would back her, and that pressure that she could ruin her man would help keep him in line.

You had some silly reason about genetic diversity elsewhere, but societies have handled incesty issues before, and elderly males can also breed with women. I am not sure why you are fighting so hard against this. It's just a calculation that some leaders have made that it's ok for men to die.

Societies can better endure the loss of males, because a small group of males can impregnate many females, and so in that way men are more disposable.

Mras are not backed by wealthy billionaires or put in troll farms to change elections, unlike Russian trolls. There is serious money, training and political power behind Russian trolls. They do research to coordinate their views of the sort that costs money. Feminists championed laws like the duluth law to allow women to beat men and get the man arrested. Some feminists also oppose black men being arrested for bad reasons which is neat, but not really useful to non white men. It's hard to respon…

We don't actually have a coherent narrative. Mras have no money or political influence unlike feminists, so we can't impose menist classes on people to teach them a shared doctrine. Mras don't have a patriarchy doctrine about how women are all evil. We do want to help men be better. We don't make so much effort imposing our will on women. We don't encourage laws allowing men to beat women, unlike feminists, so we are not trying to punish women in a similar intensity.

If prominent MRAs do widely support sex with preteens that would be a surprising fact that I'd be interested to know.

Much of that rape was vaginal, 2.1% Women also rape. Ignoring that is rather heartless.

Welcome from the land of feminism and shitredditsays, LosRancidos. Maybe if men didn't rape women so often, these "false accusations" wouldn't be so believable... Stereotyping all men as rapists? Check. Treating all men as a monolithic block? Check. Ignoring female criminals? Check. A fine start here. For the record- men and women rape each other at a low rate- most are not rapists, but similar numbers are raped. A small proportion of women falsely report. Generalizing men and women is unhelpful…

There is an alternative that I would support. Make past convictions a major factor in court. If someone has a past conviction of rape and they get accused again, disclose all those details. If someone has a history of false rape accusations, disclose all those details and take them into account. That should stop more serial offenders, who likely do a large percentage of the crimes.

I am saying it is a good thing and proof that the system is working when prosecutors analyze the evidence and see if there is reason enough to pursue a trial. It depends on how well they analyze the evidence. I don't really understand what your argument is about DNA evidence. If a rape never happened, then by default there would be no evidence of rape. http://www.innocenceproject.org/Content/26_Years_After_Wrongful_Conviction_in_Detroit_Rape_Case__Walter_Swift_is_Released_from_Prison_and_Exonera…

Okay, raising the evidence standards is good, right? They're not actually doing anything to improve police procedure. They're just not classifying no shows at trials as false rape. The likely explanation for their very low incidence of false rape evidence is that they make no effort to gather evidence on cases- given that with DNA evidence, there's a much, much higher rate of false rape cases. This guardian article reports that they rarely prosecute false rape claims. Ergo, the system is working…

What the guardian article shows is that those who prosecute rarely prosecute false rape crimes. That could be because they rarely happen, but given the DNA evidence presented above, that seems unlikely. It's like pointing me to Japan's conviction rate of 99%+ and telling me that that proves Japan's courts are completely fair. The second one reports that they are massively raising the evidence standards for something to be a false rape report. Again, that says nothing about the actual false rape …

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radical_feminism Radical feminists assert that their society is a patriarchy in which the class of men are the oppressors of the class of women.[6] Radical feminists seek to abolish patriarchy. Radical feminism posits the theory that, due to patriarchy, women have come to be viewed as the "other" to the male norm and as such have been systematically oppressed and marginalized. They also believe that the way to deal with patriarchy and oppression of all kinds is to ad…

It's worth noting the foolishness of the core argument. Feminists believe that discrimination against men is impossible or unimportant because men are privileged by virtue of being male and do not face systematic discrimination. Note that this idea is rather silly in our modern enlightened era- if you have a woman boss, she clearly can discriminate against men systematically. She is privileged relative to you and can use that to mess you up.

It can be useful to get the information in a more detailed form like that. Although of course your girlfriend will probably only care about the fun stories. It's good your girlfriend is somewhat supportive of men's rights, if mistaken in her belief in the patriarchy.

If you can't do that in good conscience then it's doubtful you can convince her. She would likely find one compelling story by a fellow feminist more convincing that a hundred studies produced by you. There's no way to win with bare statistics. One approach I've seen work well is to take representative case studies to help explain a statistic. Would you be able to do that? Actual stories of things that have happened to people.

Don't argue in favor of a pure science approach. She is essentially saying that she doesn't like your narrative and only really wants to discuss the issues if you accept her argument and do it from her perspective. She is uninterested in the 'facts' and 'science'. She would probably not feel science that supported her was dead or inhuman. As such you need a competing narrative to displace hers. So take the statistics, make a believable story and a narrative around them and sell her the narrative…

So to clarify your statement, in most modern western cultures women, especially women who value popular culture or feminism, have a very low tolerance for men making any mistakes or not being perfect and are unlikely to remain loyal to their men if they feel unhappy for any reason.

Rapists, as long term acquaintances of a person, are generally aware of their victim's attractiveness. Most guys are capable of judging a woman's attractiveness despite clothes.

They were in fact extremely helpful in recruitment drives. And numerous female politicians started brutal wars to deflect the public from th…

If she is charismatic and good at convincing people she's telling the truth she may have lied to you about faithfulness. People normally want money to support love making.

Trying to achieve consistency between vastly different scenarios is actively counterproductive. In a martial arts tournament it's best if the fights are equal because that looks better. In a fight between humans it's best if one person is substantially stronger because a drawn out fight between equals tends to cause more damage.

Women find deception and dickishness attractive often enough. If you wish to avoid some of the issues MRAs care about it's very helpful to know what sort of behaviour women find attractive. If they enjoy your sense of humour and actions you can more easily do whatever you like to do. Also, relationships are a major desire for most people. It's way more fun than buying more useless stuff. Something that offers improved relationships is very attractive.

It is sad that people accept PC terminology that labels them bad people. I actually had an argument with the partner of a trans partner about this. She'd just heard all these fancy terms from the trans community and was trying to get me to use them. Embedded in a lot of them was the assumption that trans people were better because they understood their gender or sex or something better due to the constant challenges from those who hated trans people. She argued that, saying that no cis person co…

I do totally oppose radfem's use of the word cis to shut down discussion and engender privilege guilt. You worry that people creating labels just serves to further divide people.

If having their special terms makes them happy I have no issue with that. Also, I don't see people being divided as a probl…

You likely hold the assumption that in the past feminism was awesome and amazing, campaigning for the vote, better conditions for women etc. In reality Suffragette leader Christabel Pankhurst, after campaigning to get women the vote never campaigned to get men the vote (men mostly couldn't vote as you had to be rich) but did have time to hand ones who didn't go to war a white feather to symbolize their cowardice- An early feminist ignored equality and told men to work and die harder for them. Th…

The goal of equality has the obvious downside for feminists that they would be equal to men. Women do get lots of cool shiz just because they are women. The issues feminists are most famous for campaigning for are contraceptive and abortive cover- for example in Obamacare women get free contraceptive cover and men don't. Why would women want to combine resources and support one another when that might mean they get less free stuff?

I see the content does insult men several times, explaining (with made up stats) why it is bad to educate boys. The poster should advertise to improve education for men and women.

http://healthcarecostmonitor.thehastingscenter.org/louiserussell/a-persistent-myth/ Prevention almost always increases healthcare costs. A lot of people waste money on things they would never catch. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1361028/ Per capita lifetime expenditure is $316,600, a third higher for females ($361,200) than males ($268,700). And indeed, women do spend more on healthcare. A hundred thousand dollars more.

They should have specified in the entry qualifications that people of a certain gender or whatever were excluded but I have no issues with people excluding one gender from an art contest. I believe in people's right to free association with any group and right to have contests with only that group.

A few quotes of interest. " The situation in France in the 1920s was pretty much the same as pre-1920 Chicago. A woman could murder her husband with impunity. The male juries were chivalrous in the extreme. So much so, that Frenchmen in 1930 reportedly began to take a keen inter…

Since most rapes happen while drunk or high, and most or a large percentage of consensual casual sex happens while drunk or high this isn't that helpful a chart. A better one would help people navigate the world of drunken sex.

Men are welcome to continue thinking with their penis. Thinking with your penis doesn't cause rape. A lack of concern for people's pain and self autonomy and poor interpersonal skills causes rape. You seem to have a similar view to the poster, that male sexuality causes rape. Rapists do have control over their penises. So do most guys. They both get horny and try to get sex. Rapists often try several methods to seduce women before rape- saying they love her, emotional blackmail, pleading. When t…

"Because no such statistics exist, if they did we would have them. " That is possibly one of the saddest wrong scientific statements I have ever seen. There's almost certainly some correlation of rape with climate. It's known people are more violent when it's hot. http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2011/07/hot-weather-violence/ And a lot of places on the equator are war zones, where violent rape happens often. Those together should be enough to shift the statistics. No one has cared enough to do …

That's not what the poster says. It says the problem isn't clothes, it's penis. The actual problem isn't penis, it's rapists, drugs and alcohol. Penis is a symbol for masculinity, and the poster is one of many common feminists arguments that only men rape and that all men are potential rapists. The poster's words say you shouldn't blame the way they dress, you should take action. It doesn't explain what action- stopping rapists, stopping blamers, etc people should say in the world.

You were the one who brought up Nazis. Legolas simply noted that, contrary to your claim that women hated seeing men going to war, numerous women pushed their men to go to war. They supported their men going to die horribly. The likely reason is that these women enjoyed testing their men. If their man was unwilling to go they knew he was a coward. If he did go he was sexy and was worthy of sex. Many women (especially drama loving women) love testing men with dangerous tasks. You would do well to…

I presume when you say women have a wider variety of health concerns you are referencing the fact that women complain about their health more. This is likely because hospitals regularly note female health issues and advertise women's issues lots. It's not necessarily a sign that men are served better by people that they are less aware of their health issues. Women face less health issues and are generally healthier. Also, nice subtle dodging of people's points. You make a post about this "but I …

The most important thing is to connect your self worth to the opinions of worthy others, in particular charismatic good hearted males in mostly or all male professions. You should find local skills training things (mechanic, martial arts, shooting- there's lots of mostly male ones) and try to connect yourself to that community. Avoid doing anything assholery like never picking up the tab, insulting people often and don't do the reverse and be their bitch by always picking up the tab and never ba…

There's numerous jobs where men are barred by social pressure from getting a job as people explicitly favor women. I don't really have any issue with individual employees not letting people into certain jobs where some gender aspect is very important. If a person wants to hire a pretty woman as a waitor or a strong man as a bouncer that's fine with me. I can see the appeal of your point of view, but disgruntled middle age women love to sue to test the system if there's any hint of vulnerability.

I agree that men and women shouldn't be forced into jobs. But if men chose to join the military or other violent professions like the police, and women chose to get pregnant, they both deserve gendered role support. The government should avoid punishing soldiers or pregnant women.

Testicles produce testosterone which enhances strength which allows you to lift heavy objects. There were several reported fire deaths which happened because the women couldn't do anything to stop it, not being strong enough to lift the hoses.

Your genitalia do make a difference. For example in the US the forest service, which maintained US forests, used to be maintained by mostly white males. 100 million acres were maintained by a diverse range of experts that worked tirelessly to keep the US beautiful. In the 1960s feminism came. Washington grew unhappy with the status quo and one office hired a woman, Gene Bernardi. She was in her mid forties, wore rimmed glasses, and was known to be sensitive to criticism. She quickly demanded a p…

Thank you, although people being immature, illogical, and poorly educated doesn't mean they can't make your life more difficult. Being immature doesn't mean they can't manipulate the system to screw someone over and generally make your life less pleasant. You can chose not to worry, but your dad may have experience of immature people giving him reason to worry.

Men have a higher muscle to mass ratio than women due to their testosterone. Even in the same weight class men tend to be stronger than women. Epee, and I found superior strength to be a signifigant advantage. If you were slightly in the wrong position you would still be able to beat aside their blade if you were stronger and you could move your blade faster which helped a lot (my speed won me many a match). Plus more strength meant it was easier to hold the blade, and in long tournaments that c…

While I can understand the sexism of not being allowed to hit women in a competition and the disrespect of not fighting, it's fair the guy not hitting and the dad saying not to hit. I used to do some fencing and blade fighting and sometimes when I was dueling a woman and used too much strength her friends got pretty annoyed and shot me glares of death and made sly comments about what a bad person I was. Never happened with guys. I can imagine in a tournament if you accidentally injured a woman r…

I'm not aware of any exemption to the birth control mandate to cover female contraceptives for people who don't accept public dollars. All organisations, public and private, must provide healthcare plans that give birth control. The christian definition for church tends to be wider- a fellowship of christians- and more importantly, regardless of the definition, they don't especially like being made to pay for contraceptives. They don't have to comply and provide coverage for birth control. They …

"Let me ask you this: do you feel it benefits you to prevent an unwanted pregnancy? " Let's unpack what this means- mostly intelligent women who have a career or an education will have casual sex and then get an abortion so they can continue their career/education. Is it good to delay babies for work? It means more women in the workforce, but it means lower fertility for smart people and more down syndrome. It has a mixed benefit and loss to me. It doesn't mean a reduced population as some will …

The definition is a set of beliefs, actions, and instutions that give men social and economic power over women. This definition ignores a great deal of sexism, by both men and women, which isn't about power but about expectations. The definition assumes that sexism is only possible if deliberate (and that women can't ever be sexist) but the majority of sexism is unconscious and due to stereotypes. For example, in the sciences women are often seen as incompetent and poor at any logical thinking, …
