Taking on the Red Pill | Men's Rights Activism 

Thank you for providing a source KB, much appreciated. Ultimately I've commonly heard this statistic but never knew where it came from.

The NISVS EXCLUDES men "made to penetrate" from the category of rape victim. And according to them, 12-month prevalence of men being "made to penetrate" was the same as that of women being made to rape, from your link.

There's one question/thought that I have about this, and it stems from that same "don't seek help" mentality that men have. I think a lot of these numbers are under reported in men, and especially when they're self reporting. My thinking is that a woman might call a slap abuse a lot faster than a man. Obviously I don't know this for sure but it is reasonable. Men are just not conditioned to spot abuse, or even realize they have grounds to be scared or afraid for their safety;. How many men are raped and never even realize it? I think it might be very useful to make men aware that they can be victims too, and maybe you'd see these numbers change in the future. Thanks for the video.

Wait hold up now You also said in your argument that men are less likely to seek help and then you pull this statistic with most of the data pointing to things like ptsd and going to a hospital afterwards. Isn't that feeding into the whole "men don't seek help" thing more than disproving the "men don't take violence as much as women?" Furthermore, why is there this whole stigma about physical violence being worse than verbal and emotional abuse? I get it shows on the surface and its easy to detect, but this cut and dry "nope physical pain for women = men aren't getting abused" is fucking weird. I've literally sat my parents down because I am old enough to know that my father's inability to adapt beyond a "man's purpose" and my mother inability to see her own ego and damaging manipulation.

I read somewhere that screwing is a major factor in pregnancy.

I now hate that story. His bluff of dividing a child would only work if he was already widely known to be a cruel king who'd split children for his amusement. The story doesn't prove him wise, it proves him feared with cause. Credibly threatening a woman to murder her child, to the point she's willing to give that child to someone else, is evil.

@@ahouyearno that's a foolish assesment but ok.

@@ahouyearno the whole point was not to establish fear in his subjects, but rather to determine who the child's real mother was. The real mother would have felt that fear and done anything in her power to stop Solomon, which would be to give up her child. The kidnapper wouldn't have cared about the life as much, and would have bet the mother would give him up, which happened. The kidnapper wasn't expecting for the king to give the child back to the real mother, because she didn't understand that it was a test to see who the real mother was. It worked because the mother genuinely loved her child and kings of that age were often judge and jury, and would have people imprison or execute people all the time, be it kids or not and they often didn't care about P.R. He had the power to make that happen so she feared, and only her fear mattered. But It wasn't about the fear. It was about the mystery and how he used love to solve it. Because after all, if you love someone, don't you fear loosing them...

@@theblackcatvieweraccount5402 >the whole point was not to establish fear in his subjects, but rather to determine who the child's real mother was. The real mother would have felt that fear and done anything in her power to stop Solomon Exactly. That's my whole point. This fear could only be conjured if the king was already widely known to be cruel, someone who would split babies for sport. If Solomon were a wise and moral king, everyone would have called his bluff. A wise king doesn't split babies. >The kidnapper wasn't expecting for the king to give the child back to the real mother, because she didn't understand that it was a test to see who the real mother was And neither did the real mother know it was a test. She assessed Solomon as the kind of king who kills babies. As a subject, her opinion of her king tells me a lot about him. What part about threatening to kill a baby to a mother's face is moral? Remember, it was a credible threat, that tells us something about how Solomon was understood to rule, as a cruel and bloodthirsty king.

We are supposed to go down, not up

By the way, were i live the rate is 90% + of suicides are men and the feminists that i have talked about that number completely ignore it as an issue and disregards it as if it was not important. In the same breath that they say that one suicide from a women is extremely important. The hypocrisy of them is what has made me reject the whole movement because of the inconsistencies between their discourse and their actions, that and the fact it is not just about gender is why i am in the egalitarian only position.

@@alenasenie6928 ? get well soon

Honestly hearing about female suicide makes me feel sad. It was hard enough knowing that I could become a statistic because the void calls out to me a lot. “Hey, what if you just downed all of your adderal right now and overdosed and died? Eternal peace doesn’t sound so bad does it?” Is one I had about a month ago? Now I’m finding out that I live in a world where the better half is killing themselves too. I don’t get me sometimes. Because of the trauma and humiliation women have put me through, part of me hates women and embraces the red pill. Yet now i feel like the world is losing something with them gone? I do have hate for women , but I also have love for them and at the end of the day I don’t want to live in a world without women. So how the fuck can I help?

We can't afford that, we need another 15 BILLION DOLLAR floating airport (before planes, staff and maintenance) to send to asia, to defend our freedoms.

Some men just refuse help. I had a man tow truck driver who was beaten over the head several times with a man with a wooden cane. So that person went to jail and was deported. The tow truck driver had literal lumps on his head just like in a cartoon. Of course he refused to go to the hospital or anything. I tried really hard to get him to just put ice on it. I had it right there. But he said, no I don’t need that, I’m a man. Okay then.

Just think about genital mutilation. One gender is totally normal. The other is terrible taboo that terrorists do. And there's hundreds of years of propaganda defending it. I'm sure they got the same thing for female genital mutilation. The term "male genital mutilation" itself has been replaced

​@@kellykerr5225 Yeah, as the original comment said, it's terrible that men are raised to think that toughness is not requiring help and it's terrible that the medical field disregards women. The point is more the societal problem rather than current-day men, because yeah, we've already been raised under those standards. If we started teaching kids that it can be important to accept help sometimes, then less men and less people as a whole would refuse help.

@@midnight4685 nobody is raised, predispositions to not requiring help is someone’s choice not toughness because they can bare pain without in certain situations wanting people around them. Stop talking beta.

Good luck man. Being able to admit weakness is a strength in itself. Being able to seek necessary support to take care of yourself is a sign of maturity. You are doing good.

are you or are you not physically weak? if you are, then the advice to work out is sound. I was in many situations that could've been resolved in my favor if I was stronger. not just in the sense that I should've beaten the shit out of somebody - simply *knowing* that you can overpower your opponent (or at least stand a decent chance) is enough.

the men replying to this comment are evidence that MRAs are delusional for thinking that women are to blame for men being scared to show emotion or be delicate. i really pity all of you.

Nunoya bidness imagine is someone said this to a woman. “You were too weak so he beat you, take a little responsibility for it” yes males are genetically stronger than females but it’s not always like that and they shouldn’t blame themselves for “being too weak”

Good luck mate. Ignore the troglodytes here in the comments. For me I just never saw the point in getting help, i hope you continue to grow and heal

I think the way he portrayed truckers was not thought out well at all and unfairly put them down... Was not happy about that at all.

Kyle Kowalczyk I think he meant more that they are harder to pair in a heroic light than firefighters, but I agree. He should have used a lot more tact.

Exactly.

Damn, I'm so sorry. I have a friend who has been beaten up many times by his girlfriend, and I often see him with black eyes and other injuries. He almost got out of the relationship after she cheated on him and then beat him so badly he had to call the police to get her off of him (they sent her to a psych ward for a 72 hour hold, but they released her after only 12 hours), but unfortunately it didn't last. He changed the locks and everything, but then he started sleeping with her again because he had "male urges" that he needed to satisfy, and now they are back together. She twists it around and insists that he is abusing her and that he is mentally unwell and an alcoholic etc, but I've never seen him disrespect her in all my time hanging out with them. I've seen her disrespect him literally constantly, admit to beating him up to me, and even threaten to do it again right in front of me while he was cowering in fear, still with a fresh black eye. It's honestly ridiculous, because I think she genuinely believes that she isn't abusing him. She always justifies her abuse by referring back to the rare time he allegedly put his hands on her, which I bet was because she provoked him if it's even true. It's like, if you aren't okay with something he did to the point that you think beating him up is justified, then just break up with him... It makes no damn sense. I have desperately tried to talk to her and get her to realize she is abusing him, but her resentment towards him blinds her from the truth. She projects all her own issues onto him, because she can't accept that she has mental health issues (likely bipolar disorder), so she has to blame it on him being crazy and abusing her. Anyways, sorry for the rant, it's just been hard since they got back together. He almost killed himself after he broke it off with her, and I saw how broken he was, so it kills me that he took her back. At least I was able to get him to start seeing a therapist which I'm really grateful for. I'd been trying for a while, and I finally broke through to him, so I hope he's still seeing the therapist. I haven't talked to him or heard from him in weeks, unfortunately.

@@orchdork775 *sigh* What you describe is sadly a common occurence amongst abuse victims, so there might be resources/information available on how to help your friend. A quick advice: if he is being stupid, tell him that his plan is a bad idea but don't rub it in his face. Give a warning, give an advice but do not tell him "I warned you/I told you so" just be there when he needs help, be empathetic. This way you won't tear him down but you let him know that he can count on you, that you keep a level head. Support him and remember you don't have to do this on your own.

So sorry. When my son called the police, they laughed at him. It is just wrong. We need better cops, period. I am a woman and the police did not help me during an attack by an ex. Again, WE NEED BETTER COOS, PERIOD AND BETTER LAWS

Thank you so much for being brave and sharing your experience. I believe you and I stand with you. I hope you’re doing well

oh you poor guy, im feminst, but we need to stop acting as if women are sooo weak and sweet they can't do anything wrong.

@@princessqueerbie7664 exactly! That’s part of the patriarchy. It’s the assumption that men are supposed to be dominant and strong (therefore if they’re victims they should “suck it up” instead of reporting/getting help) and that women are supposed to be submissive/weak (therefore it’s impossible for us to be abusers). Both women and men are capable of hurting/abusing people. Patriarchy just puts a stupid gendered lens on society and how we treat differently men/women as perpetrators/victims of abuse

agree

@@hannahbenson1106 LMAO blame everything for patriarchy.. actually women's becoming more violent because of biased law in judiciary system..and we should thnx to feminsit

@@JROB447 Assuming that's true, that means patriarchy negatively effects men just as it does women, in which case, it is disingenuous for feminists to complain about male privilege if they acknowledge that the powers that be harm men and women equally.

While mens rights is for equality feminism is no longer for equality. They already achieved that as we do have laws stating male and females are equal under the law. I am not sure why he thinks it was shot down.

@@Dead_Goat Depends which feminist you speak to. I don't use the term to describe myself because of the vast amounts of poop talked by some people who do call themselves that. I'd rather say I believe in equality

The reason I used to be a feminist but am now a MRA is that it slowly dawned on me that feminists have no intention of ever working on men's equality issues. They care more about women paying sales taxes on tampons than they do about the 4 year life expectancy gap. So I agree that they are not mutually exclusive in theory, but I'm sad to say that most feminists treat them as mutually exclusive.

This is disturbingly similar to what my ex-wife did to me when she abandoned me.

This crap happens all the time. Women are given no accountability in the legal system.

This is the gynocentric society feminists want and got. We are at war, gentlemen.

Because women are always seen as the victims in our feminist controlled society!

Hyper-optimized systems that work to help everyone nation-wide but only in the specific cases they're optimized for. Why? How to fix? We can't put those things on a slogan, so the only thing those people have left is to go along in at least some way with movements some of which are basically fascist

Tbf, regarding the walking home alone at night. Men are more likely to be a victim of public sphere violence (by another man) but society rarely acknowledges that harsh reality

@Johnny Bravo mine took it much farther than just slapping. I let her back me into a corner where she decided punching and grabbing my throat and slamming my head into a mirror we're good ideas, needless, I threw her about 6ft back and walked out.

Well do you think that men are genetically better equipped and thus more suitable for these types of risky and laborious jobs? If so then there you go

@@MikuHatsune12 Who is better-equipped and more suitable is a separate question entirely. What seems undeniable given the data we have is that men are more likely to accept doing risky and laborious jobs.

@@patavinity1262 why do they accept such jobs more, because they're naturally suited for such things, it'll feel more natural for more men than for more women also I was actually responding to "liberalism is a cult" but since there's no @ (even though I remember clicking it) it seems otherwise

What evidence is there?

I don't know about you, but I have met women who served in the military, police or security officers, working in prisons, firefighters/EMT, etc... When I was still a child, I was told women could not become things such as firefighters, so I never grew up thinking of it as even a possibility unlike young boys like my brother or cousin who are often encouraged to idolize such jobs. Shows like Bob the Builder or any action cartoons, action playsets/figures, and construction toys like Legos or K'nex were heavily marketed to boys, and many parents only gave or encouraged these for their boys while girls were expected to follow the Disney Princess/Barbie path encouraging and raising them to value more creative or mental jobs over physical jobs. Considering that, and yet we already see women working in these typically "men only" dangerous jobs. That is very likely a result of progress that can be a variety of reasons from simply lifting any restrictions for gender from those jobs (firefighters for example can be women now), to, encouraging newer generations of kids to choose what they want instead of parents pushing things on them (less gender-based parenting for example). Most of these women I met in more "manly" professions were those considered tomboys through childhood and teenhood. I was raised strictly on fashion dolls, so I grew to become an artist/designer. As a kid, the only "actiony" cartoon that female friends and I felt like we could watch was anime/cartoons like Pokemon and Digimon as they featured more relatable female characters and parents were fine with us watching it. But by then we were already in 4th or 5th grade where girls are already being pressured by adults, marketing, and other kids alike, to ditch toys and cartoons, and get into makeup and fashion and being popular. It's not something you can expect to have instantly overnight changed to 50/50 men and women in these professions, it takes time and multiple generations, or maybe even centuries, as there are always going to conservative families and conservative marketing, who will be strict with the gender traditions for as long as they want.

Bro are you serious? Facebook, twitter and most of the other platforms are liberal hotspots.

Did the whole bus get up and clap after this?

Exactly! This is toxic masculinity! This boy is not seen, treated and respected as a victim of rape and abuse, because far too many men don't understand, that men don't want sex all the time, with any "pretty" woman. And a 13 (!!!) year old boy is likely not ready for that at all, even with a same-age partner. The perpetrator's attractiveness is not relevant. Their actions and the lack of consent is.

This is still extremely prevalent, especially online and it's fucking disgusting. Rape is rape. Period. Consent matters.

What i think we need to realize is that the only difference between concern for boys being harmed and concern for men being harmed is just a year. You think vulnerable people suddenly gain power because it's their birthday? That's a fantasy. If anything it's less power because if they're an 'adult' it's ok to stop pretending to care.

I made my wife aware of how often she slaps me (just a slap on the arm the way you would gently slap a pet dog to signal disapproval) by slapping her back. At first she was outraged that I would retaliate at all and then when I pointed out she had just used physical violence to rebuke me and that I didn't like it, she stopped. It just goes to show that we (males) are just supposed to take it (even the most gentle king of 'it') in silence, whereas women are not.

@@andreraymond6860 and I am proud to be able to to take it, both physically and mentally

Which I think gets to the point that due to toxic masculinity, men are expected to tolerate it. If we as a society understand that men have feelings as well, men wouldn't be ashamed to find help out of such relationships as they would no longer be in a position to that society expects them to tolerate.

Like sir, you were a spectator in your home and decided that your only job was to bring money in. Why does it pose you off when a judge says that you should continue to do what you decided to do?

Yes, because patriarchal social standards dictate that a woman should be the one to raise children, not because of some social privilege of women in general. Men too are victims of patriarchy, but women still have it worse in general

I don't think he was trying to deny that some family courts are biased. I think he was trying to stress that the statistic that ~80% of custodial parents are women is a bit misleading because the majority of those didn't go to court. You have to single out the 2-10% of divorces that actually result in custody trials.

@@beatlesfoxman9617 no the family courts are built in the favor of women there is massive amount of statistical prof of that

And the state that I live in that has been bound on stout. If the man calls the police and says that his wife has hit him and they were bruises on him she subject to being arrested also

@@carrieb5711 I don't understand. What do you mean by "And the state that I live in that has been bound on stout." What do you mean by "stout"? Do you mean that the state is fat, or that it likes dark beer? You say that the wife is "subject to being arrested also," but in reality, that rarely happens. If the girl broke her fingernail while stabbing him with a screwdriver, he goes to jail. That's the rule.

Sorry the cops failed your father.

As a commenter above said, "if women don't qualify most of the time, men can't complain that they are being forced into dangerous jobs." Obviously most firefighters will be men, but you can't complain that you're being forced into a dangerous job because people hate men and consider them disposable, more men die in work-related jobs because they are more likely to pass the tests those jobs require in the first place, not because of a fucking feminist conspiracy.

@@Dan1elAndrade But he makes the point that women are apparently being "kept out" of jobs like firefighting, as if it has nothing to do with the statistics of physicality. Can you think of even a single "Zarya" you personally know? What about men of somewhat similar proportions (ie. stout, high upper-body strength, toughness). It seems pretty obvious that there are other factors at work besides men just not letting women fight fires because patriarchy.

@@Nosvenicar Of course the issue is capability, not sexism. Were women better equipped than men to deal with these situations, there isn't a firefighting crew in the nation which wouldn't be staffed primarily by women, because the system isn't a boy's club instituted to prefer the penis. It seeks candidates based on the criteria of competence & excellence.

@@Dan1elAndrade Men don't 'complain' about being forced into dangerous jobs. The complaint is that there isn't any recognition of the dangers men are expected to face, there is a deference. Having feminist tell men that women don't need no man, complain when men don't act to save women, and then tell men that they shouldn't expect gratitude for doing what they consider the bare minimum men should do for women (who don't need them). Let's just leave that whole sentence at a couldn't they at least think their own sh*t THROUGH!!! It isn't complaining about the JOBS it's complaining about the attitudes that so many have about how they treat the people doing them. It isn't even a complaint about 'showing gratitude' as much as it is a complaint about making everything about themselves. Gratitude from someone who doesn't even understand what it is they expect from others isn't very useful anyway. GAH!! Make some sense pls, at least some sense, or try to at least. As for the whole fucking feminist conspiracy thing. The feminist conspiracy is the constant argument that the only reason there aren't more female firefighters is because of the fucking patriarchy conspiracy. If the reason that more men die as firefighters (and truckdrivers) is because more men can make the standard requirements than the feminist argument that women are just as capable as men doesn't hold water. Not that it should actually be a competition in the first place. Again pls make some SENSE!! P.S. all the comments were directed at feminist arguments not to the commenter, sry if that sounds confusing.

There are only statistics when something is reported. Women are just as likely to do bad things to others as men, but they're more likely to be ignored.

It's not as uncommon as people think, but also not as common as alarmists claim. The huge problem is that society has absolutely no safety net for female on male abuse, and men (especially boys) don't get believed or it's laughed up as "you got lucky to be with an experience woman". That absolutely must change.

It IS extremely low. Knowing better framed a 40.8% sole maternal custody as low, but i was shocked how high that was. 45% is shared to some degree, so that leaves 14.2% with sole paternal costody. And i would be willing to bet that Most of "shared custody" is still primarily women. Most crime in the US is settled out of court, due to the high legal fees. instead lawyers make educated guesses based on previous outcomes, and settle based on that.

This channel is so cucked. Women don't want to be truck drivers (with a few badass exceptions) and most women who want to be firemen shouldn't (with the few badass exceptions that can pass the physical standards set for men, because there are physical skills required in a service revolving around saving lives and carrying bodies out of danger, sometimes through several flights of stairs).

So if you make a break early you can do a shorter break later or drive longer in the evening.

Contact Light Yeah, I found that argument to be very weak. A woman who constantly hits her boyfriend shouldn’t be discredited as part of the statistic because the one time he hits back, she gets bruised from it. Also, one second he was talking about how men tend to not show their emotions as much because they’re told to “grin and bear it” and then the very next he’s telling us that men are less often abused, which is solely based on self-reports. Of course men are less likely to report when they were emotionally or physically abused by an SO if they’re actively discouraged from showing their emotions on things like that.

"[E]quivalent issue." What do you mean by this? 1]Equivalent in its importance because all sexes/genders should have safety? 2]Or equivalent because the outcome of the domestic violence is the same?

@@skybluskyblueify The first I think. Because a bloke can generally do more damage to women, it doesnt make the actions of a male any worse than the actions of the female.

This is why I wish MRAs would start shaming these judges. Yes, the women who ask judges for full custody when the dad was there for the kid, are assholes. But by and large, it's male judges ignoring the father and giving the mother custody of the children, regardless of the father's involvement. This is why I wish real MRA folks need to start shaming the sexists in their ranks. Cuz if you fix the judges, more men will have rights to their kids. And the only reason I think that's not happening is because most judges are men. And idk something something sexism

@@Nimish204 My brother had the same thing happen. he did appeal and the facts were ignored again. He couldnt afford to appeal again because he had a kid and a heroin addict ex to support.

Oh my gosh, in New Mexico all women get free lawyers if they claim domestic violence, if you dispute it goes unquestioned.

That's probably true in some percentage of cases, but the far more common reason is that lawyers are insanely expensive and going through family court is a long and painful process. . Most cases get resolved via some form of mediation. Its similar to family court in some ways but its typically much cheaper and faster (if you and your ex can can agree to terms.) The downside of course being that you don't get to walk away with a formal court order so there's always the chance that the other party will renege on the agreement and force a trip to court anyway. . Also, I'm not sure how widespread it is but at least in my jurisdiction, you're practically forced to attempt mediation before a judge is even willing to hear your case.. primarily done so that the courts don't get bogged down with things that can potentially be settled more amicably. Which they often can even if neither party believes it going in. . Basically, for the statistic to be particularly relevant, mediation needs to be accepted as a viable alternative to family court so that that 9% number can be boosted to something more meaningful on a larger scale.

Also, due to men still paying the majority of alimony and child support they end paying for both sets of lawyers. For many they can’t afford to go to court

I think the rape stats are a little bit inaccurate because men might not report or even talk about what happened.

Feminism does not involve working on the problems of men.

@@user-wm5rt9pw5l But that doesn't mean it's a bad thing. People who want men's rights can also exist without hating people who want women's rights. There can be different groups for different purposes. "There's a government department for agriculture?? Despicable, why aren't they focussed on security? Clearly only the security department should exist and the department of agriculture is stupid."

@@midnight4685 Рroblems of men and women do not exist in a vacuum separate from each other. For example. Lowering the requirements for the quality of the investigation and evidence base in cases of sexual and domestic violence against women, due to the fact that "insufficient number of cases reach the court" will lead to increased opportunities for abuse of the system and an increase in the number of false accusations and an increase in the number of innocent convicts. A movement that does not take into account the interests of the opposite sex will inevitably promote changes that may benefit one at the expense of the other. This could have been avoided if there was a movement trying to protect the rights of men and women as the rights of the people, but instead we have one very powerful movement and one marginalized movement that is created in its image. Moreover, the first is very ideological, which does not allow it to see the point of view of opponents in principle.

@@user-wm5rt9pw5l I don't think you're thinking of actual feminism, which is equality, not elevation of one gender. I do think lowering those requirements is not a good idea if it's just for women, obviously, and most non-internet feminists would agree. Even lowering at all could come with risks. Yes, the issues don't exist in a vacuum, but for a lot of the issues brought up in the video, feminism isn't causing them. Feminism isn't causing mental health issues for men, lack of support systems and the idea that it's weak to reach out to people is. Feminism isn't forcing men to be weaker, it's enabling other options for both women and men. Feminism should be about equality and should help women and men. There is the complicating factor when bills like that are passed to seem progressive by people who don't actually care, they just want to think they're doing a good thing.

hahaha literally

*M’lady do you wan’t me to defend thine honor?*

Lmao I just noticed how it fits

Is the body pillow the sheath for the katana?

Yep

Lol same here.

I agree. The patriarchy also hurts men.

I totally agree with agree. Its a problematic bias that impacts people badly.

I'm so sorry you went through that. I absolutely believe fathers are disadvantaged in this and it is completely unfair and unjust. I fully agree with your last sentence that we should work together to fix all of the old world “traditional” toxic horseshit. I am a woman and very interested in men's rights and wanting to advocate for them, so at first I went to talk to MRAs. Sometimes I had some nice conversations, but most of the time it became very vicious. Rather than discussing men's rights with me, they were mostly interested in spending the time on me "proving" that as a woman I was committed to men's right, and wanting me to "disavow" feminism (I am a feminist also). Anything I said that was slightly different from how they would formulate it, would imply I am an "evil woman who wants to dominate men". Also, giving a female perspective on the issue being discussed was not allowed. In the end it felt to me they were much more a group interested in hating on feminism than they were actually interested in men's rights, so not really what I'm looking for. It's such a pity that the MRA movement is so problematic, because where do us normal people interested in men's rights go? I don't personally think feminism can do it even though I am a feminist; men deserve their own movement. Maybe you are right and it should not be in the form of an ideology, but usually it helps to have a common name for an issue. Finally, thanks for your compassion and for being a kind human being despite the unjustice done to you.

I myself have seen that Fathers tend to get the short end of the stick when it comes to custody splits, my parents got divorced when I was young and my Mom has most/total custody, however my Dad has Bipolar that lands him in the hospital every now and again so I kinda get why that would happen, however my Mom's current Boyfriend had 4 children with his previous Wife and the Mother had total/most of the custody (like he gets 2 weekends a month with the kids), and there is no reason to keep the children away from him as he can provide for them adequately and isn't a terrible or Abusive person.

I agree to some degree, though I'm a Feminist. Too many family court calls are made without adequate consultation or consideration of the child's, or children's, needs. I know I wasn't consulted, and living with my father was the worst thing for me. The assumption that fathers are incompetent in caregiving damages those that are the better/stable parent, plus the "old world thinking" gives a pass to horrible fathers doing harm cause we expect them to be bad or not as involved. We need to shed all these ideas so we stop doing harm to kids, like myself many years ago.

My dad also suffered from this and it's why I don't really know my step sister. But I do hate that women (in general) are blamed for it. Most judges are men and more than likely, it's a man that passes judgement ripping children away from their fathers because _they_ believe that only women can take care of children. I find it extremely unfair that these judges are never blamed for their antiquated ideas and it's always the women's fault. Judges are supposed to be impartial. They're supposed to look at a case objectively, and male judges (along with female judges) rip children away from their fathers. They need more scrutiny from the MRA groups. It's incredibly annoying, that MRAs let these judges do whatever with no blame. Unless the judge is a woman. Than you hear it all over reddit.

Read your comment. Appreciate your input

Rasayana85 I don’t know the exact statistics. I do recall seeing statistics in a Continued Legal Education seminar last year though. The info may be available online. I just recall that the scales were not very balanced.

Bill Weasley good point, and while I think It's a point worth discussing, I also think it's adressed by the gender roles theory. Let's agree first that, as a whole, men are more likely to be physically apt for a strength-and-stamina-requiring job. Now, we're raised quite differently according to our sex and assigned gender, men are treated and expected to be more rough, while women are treated and expected to be more sensitive (in the general idea of raising children I mean, I'm not discussing anecdotal cases), so It's to be expected that women don't grow to want the kind of jobs that are against what they've been raised to think is 'their nature'. This also applies for males in female-dominated areas, but since kindergarten teaching (as an example) has no extreme physical requirements, there's nothing stopping men to give it a try (nothing but social norm). I believe it's quite a few generations of actual equality, to law as much as to society, till we can actually people really doing whatever they like. Also, I wonder how many men want to be firefighters as opposed to the whole male population, I doubt that's too high a percentage either. PS, sorry if i'm not getting my point across accurately, English is not my first language.

Martin, I think that you got your point across excellently!

@@martinovallejo Yes but there are actual biological, not "nuture" but "nature" reasons why women are physically smaller & weaker. No amount of nurture (god knows I've tried) raises your height or increases muscle mass significantly. Overall yes women and men have been put into somewhat harmful and oppressive roles but they exist as a result of our natural biological differences to some extent. To ignore those and say, lower physical requirements is really dangerous and shouldn't be done. Men and women are on the same team in life, but both are slightly better at different things.

In Germany, there is no such restriction. The percentage of female firefighters is at about 9%, the percentage in the army is at about 12%.

@@martinovallejo Gender role theory, like much of post-modernist philosophy, is severely flawed in addressing the reality of the issues it claims to explain. It assumes that our roles in society were arbitrarily assigned by men and men alone, or by including women who hate themselves (internalize misogyny, I believe it is called). Post-modern theorists claim that everything is a 'social construct,' and therefore is irrelevant and as easily changed as flipping a switch. They often neglect the impact of 2.1 billion years of co-evolution between men and women. The roles we adopted were slowly determined by Darwinian-esque social evolution. Factors of biology were the primary concern for our ancestors from the beginning of Hominidia to about the last 150 years or so. Birth rates were the most critical in determining our societal roles. Women are more important to the continuation of our species. The number of women is the limiting factor in our propagation. With a few rare exceptions, the average human female will bear 1 child per gestative period (fun fact: In mammals, the average brood size is equal to half the number of mammary glands the female has, humans incuded). At that rate, women need to have _at least_ 3 children to maintain population, given rates of death and other issues that remove individual sets of genes from the genetic pool, from which all humanty draws. The roles males took in human evolution tended to be more physically demanding. We didn't choose that, it just happened. As a result, the men took on the role of hunting and defending. Those males who were the best hunters attracted the most females because they were the best at providing and protecting those females. He reproduced with them, and his genetics were passed on. As those genes improved the features of that hunter's descendants, they physically changed; male's upper bodies grew larger overall, including stronger muscles in the chest, back, shoulders, and arms, denser bones tougher tendons and ligaments, etc. This meant each few generations, the males were bigger and stronger than ever before. The same happened with females: They grew broader hips to carry and deliver babies more easily. They are the only female primates with breasts that hang away from their bodies. They hold onto body fat more easily than males, and carry more body fat on their hips and thighs; this was to keep them alive in times with out food, specifically because those females whose genetics caused them to hold onto fat more readily survived easier than females who didn't. Additionally, their fat is carried on legs and thighs because visceral fat (the type men carry more readily, in and around the organs in the abdomen) causes disease more frequently. If women carried fat this way, there would be more compression of the womb, possibly making children smaller and less likely to survive, also increasing disease as humans began eating more grain during the Neolithic revolution. Their breasts hang away and vary dramatically in size compared to other primates because the *symmetry* of human breasts can indicate genetic disease, specifically a greater propensity for breast cancer, based on the size difference between the two breasts. Larger breasts tend to hang farther from the body, making it easier to advertise physical fitness. I could literally go on like this for days. The science of biological anthropology is extremely well-researched and long established. We are the way we are because evolution set us up that way. Does that mean we can't do things differently? Of course not. People are more free now than they ever have been due to the science and medicine that has enabled men and women to cross into different areas of society. I don't really care what people want to do, as long as it is based on meritocracy. Post-modernism ignores this science, whether because they don't accept science (which is an increasingly common belief; genetics and biology are especially under attack in Ivy league universities) or because the science totally crushes the philosophy introduced by post-modernism. It sees our social differences as being either established by racism and sexism, even though that wasn't really an issue when we all evolved in Africa; or, they seem to assume that human society exists in a bubble and they don't consider anything else as having influenced and guided our evolution, which gave way to a social structure based on merit and convenience, based on our physical traits. What I'm saying is: When there's a well-established scientific explanation for something, a philosophy that discounts or ignores the science is irrelevant. Science trumps philosophy every time. And those who claim, "Well, philosophy is the foundation of science," yes, yes it is. But when it only functions outside of science, or never actually performs the study and experimentation to take their philosophy into the realm of science, it remains only a philosophy. Please don't read this as an attack on you or anything. I've just been debating people about post-modernism quite a bit and have noticed that its pervasive nature needs to be pushed back against to stop it from corrupting science further.

Whether or not we've used it recently or it it's a popular option, the point is that if the shit hits the fan the government has got a list of "willing" participants. It hasn't been used since the 70s? Cool. What about next year?

You can say that it is discriminatory yes, but why is it like this in the first place, if you recognize that men are generally better equipped at doing physical tasks then there's your answer. It has been like that throughout history (perhaps some exceptions but thats not the point), women haven't put men in these positions, men have assumed these positions for themselves and in many cases deemed that this is how it should be, women have taken the positions assumed for them until the last 100 years give or take. If you feel uncomftorable with this and you do not want part in this then I most certainly feel for you but the possibility of wars are a thing unfortunately and men have been deemed by men to be the ones to do this kind of job, men need to address men on these issues for women don't really have much say in this other than helping to advocate

So its a bad a system for men. So instead of attacking the system and trying to get it changed. MRAs want women to experience the same horrible system. That sums up the mens right movement pretty well..

A bet lot of people on both sides probably want to work together, issue is, there are a lot of others that absolutely hate "the other side" and it only takes one shithead to call in a bomb threat or pull the fire alarm and ruin it for everyone else. Feel like this is the case for just about any movement: it only takes a small number of bad actors to ruin a groups image, especially when there are folks lined up on the other side just waiting for an excuse to condemn something. It's part of why I have been trying to move away from labels myself, at least when dealing with individual people, better to talk to them and figure out where you agree/disagree on something. Someone may say they are against movement "X," but when you actually talk to them, they actually support many of the same ideas the movement is fighting for.

I went ahead and actually watched the Red Pill movie. This point is emphasized multiple times - female points are not challenged or disputed, they just want male points to be added to the list. Which is a fair opinion in my view.

Exactly. If you truly understand what modern feminism is about, you’d see it helps both men and women. I’ve tried explaining this numerous times.

@@Ismael-kc3ry too bad vocal minorities are ruining and disrespecting the movement

This wasn't a video this was a movie, documentary. I highly recommend it. It points out the nuances in the statistics that he even brought up and ignored the nuance. For example the number of abused men (being 1 in 5 (he said it was now 1 in 4)) is theorized to be much higher than the stated statistic because of the lack of reporting by men because of the backlash men get when they do report abuse. For example in instance where a man gets hit or beaten and he calls the cops, all the wife has to say is that he he was the one hitting her and the police will arrest him without question. Now instances like that in my example are happening less and less because of the awareness of the red pill movement, but it still happens. That leads men to not report when they are being abused. And until recent years, a lot of people insisted that you can't rape a man. So men who did get raped were often laughed at and disregarded. In the more recent years, they're still laughed at and a lot of times disregarded. The courts also don't do anything to the abusers as a result of the victim being a man. Also leading to a lack of reporting.

that sounds fishy, it seems you are not telling us the whole story

@Decency Defied What was the comment can anybody tell.

ThatCrockpot Circumcision is a religious practice.

It isn’t a meant to be anti-men it is just for rules in certain religions like Christianity

It is indeed a very valid arugment MRAs have. And guess what? It's something most feminists argue for as well, as their argument for bodily autonomy in the case of FGM and abortion also includes circumcision of male babies.

You're not alone. The anti-male genital mutilation movement is growing rapidly. All the anti-FGM activists have gotten a lot of attention, but the general public is pretty good at detecting double-standards, which has led many otherwise disinterested people to join the conversation and ask, "Why are we so concerned with FGM, but boys don't even get attention for the issue on their side?" Enough people asked, and now it's taken a stage (albeit a smaller stage) next the FGM. Hopefully more people will recognize the issue of ignoring the issues facing boys, because somehow paying any attention to boys while women also have struggles is neglecting women. Makes no sense to me.

@@davidwells9982 First of all, I'm absolutely against circumcision of male babies. They should wait until they're adults and can decide for themselves. However, FGM and male circumcision are in no way equivalent. The more extreme versions of FGM is more equivalent to cutting away glans than just removing the foreskin. Lastly, the big argument against banning circumcision of male babies is religion. Jews have done this for millenia and banning it is a move against Judaism, whether intentional or not. There is no such equivalent for FGM. Painting it as if it's some kind of agenda to allow one but not the other is disingenuous. It's not just misleading, it's straight up false because there is no such agenda. It's simply a matter of what trumps what, bodily autonomy or religious freedom. As I noted earlier, I believe the former trumps the latter, but I can respect the other side of the argument.

@@PersianMapper honestly, after 200 years Saint Helena gets on your nerves quite a bit

@@PrinceofBabylon meh. Elba sounds boring. I heard Waterloo is quite a nice place

I'm for the renaming. Focusing on equality and not gender not only is more palatable to people but offers better outcomes for everyone.

Damn buddy that sounds awful. Sorry you had to go through that. I know it’s gotta be tough, but you can’t let that influence your view of people, and specifically women, as a whole. Stay strong. You can come back from this.

@@augustuscaesar2270 Thanks buddy! I realize that within a random sample of people - guys and girls - a small percentage is going to have grievous mental issues. I was naive and really just hit the bad luck lottery with that one (or rather it hit me, ba-dum-tssh). Of all the other girls I've dated since they've all been lovely. It was really only the one and I'm certainly more alert to problem behaviors. No ill will, I hope she got her demons sorted out since. I only really wish there was an option at the time for a guy to find sanctuary is all (it was a small 'city' of 5,000 with one shelter exclusive to women) but that was unheard of.

I don't know exactly how you feel but I'm extremely bothered by the fact that help wasn't instantly available. I hope your situation has improved. I had no access to support for the same reasons and had to help myself with youtube haha, We NEed to Talk with Kris Godinez literally was saving my life for the last few years

Is her brother still alive?

Im so sorry you wnt through that. I hope you left her and things are going well for you.

I think a lot of it is old misogynist expectations for women backfiring onto men. Ex. The misogynist expectation that women are meant to be caregivers has been used to keep women "in their place", but it backfires on men in family court. Sexism hurts everyone unfortunately.

@@chocolizard678 they are meant to be care givers, but not to "keep them in their place" Just like men are meant to provide and protect.

@@arcguardian according to what?

Were you the main bread winner of your family?

@@arcguardian but if a divorce happens, then the woman deserves to be paid alimony and child support. She has no marketable skills in the labor market while she was taking care of YOUR kids, so while those skills get developed after divorce, they need to eat right? Support themselves?

You arent radical. Radical feminists hate all men and think we're all horrible. You... You are logical.

You're not wrong, this guy's full of B.S. he thinks this is going to get him laid.

@@MrBobDobolina me or the video producer

They will "help" men by sending them to anger management courses.

I think he's talking out of his ass actually, and i doubt there's much, if any development in that field. I remember listening to a guy 3 years ago who tried to find a shelter for men, or both sexes and failed. Then he ended up calling a female one, and had recorded audio of basically getting told there's nothing for him by multiple people, and some even SENDING HIM to anti misogyny and anger management workshops despite him being the victim, not at all violent and calling for help.

I agree. Some women tear condoms and lie about the pills, and still men end up having to pay. That's gross, that's so disgusting. Equal reproductive rights assures both parents have a say, an option and choices.

but also fax and based.
