They believe that men are now disempowered in society- and are against the feminist movement. ( http://www.avoiceformen.com/ ) A Voice For Men is a great site to read some pretty crazy opinions.
About Men's Rights: "What do we mean by men’s rights? Men experience systematic discrimination in parenting, domestic violence policies, education, criminal sentencing, paternity, forced labor, military conscription, public health policies, genital integrity, false accusations, reproductive rights, portrayal by the media & in the coverage of their issues by the news media. This group was formed with the goal of not only spreading awareness about these issues, but actually doing something about them."
I do think there is some truth in the fact that men's dominance in society is lowering, but it's only because we're not supporting equality for all genders.
I actually have the same issue with feminism, that is should be equality for all. I do agree that women have been marginalized (and still are)..but I also believe that men, especially of ethnic minorities, also experience as much marginalization.
To be honest, I thought men were here just for my oogling pleasure!
Well, I gave him an opportunity to realise just how dumb his action was, like a different order of dumb and he stuck to his guns and has since, so I figure he's got a lot to learn and he's a slow learner.
It's amazing how may men (and women) support this movement. All across campus these posters are popping up. There's one that says "Just because you regret it in the morning, doesn't mean it's rape. Don't be that girl." It's terrible. I find the whole 'blame the victim' to be a horrible reflection of our society. This fall at frosh/orientation week, a local university got in to so much trouble for this chant:

I'm not sure how anyone could think that was okay to chant....These people are brainless!!
@muir, not sure if i can post on your VM wall.
I remember when you "called" me a "rapist." Was a good time.
I did not compare Lark to a rapist i said that he had a habit of stigmatising people he debated with and said that if i called him a rapist then it would stigmatise him even if he hadn't raped anyone, but i didn't actually call him a rapist
He got butt hurt at that
That is a good point! I think it's just bad for me because I get all worked up, and go crazy!
There's certainly interesting topics to be discussed...I actually wanted to start a thread on "Men's Rights" because of a local campaign happening here...these are the signs they're posting, what do you think?
@rep. I've not been in conversation with Muir since he compared me to a rapist in a topical discussion.
I touch way more threads on here than I should....but I know all too well not to touch that one! I'm waiting for an abortion thread as well! I can only imagine what a cluster that one would be! I do enjoy reading them though- entertaining and informative! But at the same time, why even bring that up? It's like farting in public, there's some things you just don't do!
You are right. I've been exploring the idea of kindness these days. Thanks for noticing
. There are worse concepts to explore, don't you think?
As I said, it was just something I heard. If you want to be right, then by all means, be right. I didn't mention it to start an argument about who is stronger: male vs. female lions. thx
never heard of apex predators before. pretty cool.
Yeah, I think the idea of just hanging around, not having something to prove is interesting because most wild fierce animals are always assumed to be offensive, concerned about asserting dominion and power, yet not all are.
Awesome. Where \ what do you ride?
Stop pretending you don't love it....you know you do...
Jesus christ. I may stay off my message wall altogether for a while, haha.

There's lots more where that came from!
It was their son...my older brother, not my son btw...I think that is what you meant but just wanted to clarify since my son 10....lol
Yes, there are for sure WRONG times....lololol.
But I think you get what I mean....all these people who wait until they have the perfect house, and the right career, etc...then they are 45, have an autistic kid (because you are more likely the later you have children), and end up dying right after they graduate HS....lol.
I’m sure some gay escapades have gone on on missions...lol...whatever floats your boat.
I don’t know how I would define my religious beliefs...I guess I would be agnostic as well...but I actually do have a very strong belief in the afterlife...just not within the strict confines of any religious sect.
I’m actually pretty broke now as well in spite of me having a job and all the jazz...just been trying to get back into the full time swing of things after I took my medical leave for my arthritis...it’s been a battle....but I now feel 98% back to normal....so I am anticipating some better paychecks in the future...it’s just so hard to get back in the black after being in the red for so long...ugh.
It’s nice you can have conversations like that with your Dad....as much as I loved my Dad, we never really got into anything too deep like personal religious beliefs...he was pretty easy - he just loved us how we were/are.
Anyhow, some things stuck...they do have good family values and family was always a very important thing growing up for which I really feel lucky.
Kids do change a lot of things in your life...there are things you sacrifice, but for me, it was wholly worth it.
There really isn’t a “right†time to have children...if you want to have a family, you should just do it when you find the right person...that is the key I think.
I feel guilty that my Son’s Mom and I got divorced, that I cannot be there with him as much as I would like....but I see him once or twice during the week and then he spends the night on Saturdays.
In the long run, I think it’s still better than him watching his Mother and I argue and hear the venom toward me come out of her mouth.
Now that we are divorced, we are cordial...I actually have Guardianship of him since his Mom and he immigrated from Russia...that way if something were to happen to her, not only would he lose his Mom, but he could be deported to relatives he barely knows, in a country he hasn’t grown up in, away from me who he considers his Father and my Mom, his Grandma.
So that is something I can breathe a little easier about. -
