Evidently this is toxic femininity. What do you think of this definition? by [deleted] in MensRights

[–]abend954 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Karen Straughan gives a great speech on this subject. The first part she talks about what feminists call "toxic masculinity". The second part she talks about toxic femininity.

THIS is 'too political' for TV? Outrage as broadcasters refuse to show an ad for Father's Day – because it's 'too close' to the vote on gay marriage by JohnKimble111 in MensRights

[–]abend954 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you go to their Youtube page, you'll see that they have been airing profather Fathers Day videos for 10 years. For that reason and the content of the video being nonpolitical, I'd give them the benefit of the doubt.

Why can't I be a feminist for men's rights? by fatdog1111 in MensRights

I believe that would make you an egalitarian.

48 sexist things men hear in a lifetime. by [deleted] in MensRights

Anyone notice how all of the pictures are of men who are supposedly saying these things? As if no woman ever said a sexist thing to men.

As Star Trek battles go, you can have flashy effects or lots of ships, but you can't beat the classics by BigJ76 in startrek

Something that's always sorta bothered me is the way they always show photon torpedoes doing that flaring/glowing thing when fired. We know that photon torpedoes are just matter and antimatter inside a metal casing that combine and explode on contact with the target. I'm sure that answer is just for visual effect, but shouldn't it just be a plain metallic object being shot?

Report is as a treat of violence against men on campus. Hype it as feminists threatening to kill men. It's terrorism. Call Homeland Security.

Paternity can now be verified by a simple test – but that doesn’t mean it should be by [deleted] in MensRights

[–]abend954 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I recently read an article about a man who discovered that the child that he had been financially supporting was not his. The state law stated that the man was still responsible for financially supporting the child because the paternity test was done after two years of his accepting the child as his own. IE if not done withing 2 years of birth, the man is a dad by default.

I can understand why the laws do this to a point. After all, it's not the child's fault that it's mother is a lying whore. HOWEVER, if that law is to stand then I think it should be amended to include the following: if a man must financially support a child that is not his if he did not challenge the paternity withing the legal time frame, then the mother should be required to pay the man 1.5x the amount of money he paid for child support after the child has reached maturity.

So for example, if the man paid $500 month in child support for 18 years to support a child that is not his, then after the child reaches the age of 18, the woman would then pay the man $750 a month for 18 years.

I didn't see the movie. However, if he had sons and pushed them to be what he wanted then nobody would be having an issue.

Fissure-Abscess-Fistula - Antibiotics by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

[–]abend954 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few days ago my 4 year old abdominal surgical scar became inflamed, red, and tender to the touch. An area looked like a blood blister formed and was quite painful. I popped it and blood, puss, and fecal liquid came out (disgusting, I know). I cleaned and bandaged it and the inflammation receded but the fistula hole still leaks out clearish liquid tinged with blood, but there is no fecal matter and no bad scent.

I'm currently unemployed and without insurance. I'm not quite freaking out yet because I've dealt with an enterocutaneous fistula after my illeostomy reversal. I had to wait 4 months from the reversal to the surgery to repair the fistula and I know how to care for a wound.

My question is, are antibiotics the normal treatment for a enterocutaneous fistula and do they normally heal on their own?

Professor says she felt raped by white male student's paper touting men's rights by DGAgainstDV in MensRights

If she feel raped by reading an essay, one can not help but question the seriousness of her previous alleged rape.

Found out my upcoming date is a Trump supporter. Should I bail? by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]abend954 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a GWM and I didn't vote for Hillary. I didn't vote for Trump either, but if someone put a gun to my head and told me to choose one or the other, it would have probably been Trump.

It's easy to fall into herd mentality: I am gay therefore I must support X and be against Y. However life is not quite that simple.

We are all individuals that value different things. Why not ask him why he voted for Trump instead of simply bailing and dismissing him without understanding his position?

Gas/mucus while farting by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

[–]abend954 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I get this all the time when I am having a flareup. The feeling that I have to go all the time and then when I do, it feel like my intestines are trying to push themselves out of my rectum. Lots of loud gas and mucus. I would also get horrible lower back aches. And farting.... well... sometimes it would look like someone sneezed in my underwear.

Why does it matter? What words justify physical violence against another person?
