Why does there seem to be a stigma attached to advocate for Men's Rights?

I'd never compare a movement promoting human rights with feminism.

I've tried to have this discussion many times on here and it's frankly boring. Watch the documentary if you guys want.

Honestly I'm bored too. I don't agree with the **** you say but I'm sick of getting huffy with a guy I actually like over an internet argument.

That totally makes you look like you're not into this movement because of anti-feminist bitterness.

I'm not against feminists. There's plenty of fine people who identify as feminists. I'm just against a few of the core principles of feminism. Most of this stuff is discussed in the documentary, it's well worth a watch.

There is a bit mean spiritedness to say that Goofle's brain is wired backwards. Maybe you lack a sense of justice and are not able to understand their position. If you are so closed minded that are not able to understand the hardships, inequality, and prejudices are pretty much spread across the board than maybe you should be quiet for a change and listen to what everyone has to say before bandying bout snaky comments.

All I see in this thread is a bunch of people saying, "men are the most privileged therefore they don't have a right to change things about their position in society that are unfair".

If you're gonna make fighting for rights based on who needs it the most and not about people standing up for particular situations they most identify with then you should probably just fuck off.

I'll reserve my comments about how similar this is to whiny modern day feminists for when I see it. I suspect it will be more whiny and woe is me than intellectual and well argued.

The statistics completely back up things like high male suicide rates, large differential in prison sentencing, work place deaths, close to parity in domestic violence etc. Also the fact that boys can have their genitals mutilated freely.

But your attitude is one to be commended.

remember that time the people from BLM and the LGTBQ got mad at the women's march. why we gotta fight over who has it hardest? wouldn't it be more productive to like, discuss resolutions to the potential issues that exist.

You're starting to sound like Frownland.
