If a woman decide s to have the baby, she does so as her own, and should be required to care for that child on her own if the father decides he does not want to have a child.
I can go with the right to "abort" parental responsibility as long as it is a signed statement that is done BEFORE sex. It might make people stop and think for a minute.

Alimony is paid to the spouse who sacrificed their career during the marriage. Men get alimony too.

Seeing as how no one has been drafted since Viet Nam, this is low on the list. But I agree that either women should have to register too, or the whole thing should be done away with.

Agree, but you need to discuss that with the majority MALE congress that has not voted on the issue that has been proposed every year since 2004

That is a little harsh, but I do believe that false accusers should at LEAST pay ALL court costs, and have the false accusation on their permanent record.

I think affirmative action HAD it's place. That time and place seems to be mostly over now. Get rid of the whole thing.

ABSOLUTELY!

Men's "rights" group are deceptively-named groups of misogynists who don't want to support the kid they shot their semen out for, who don't want to split common property when they get divorced, who can't stand the whole idea of women having equal rights to them, they just can't BEAR it, they are in danger of turning into dust just from their hatred and anger.

Yes, actually an increasing number of men are getting alimony. Not that I have any sympathy for the ex-wives. Since they've been doing it to men for who knows how long.

And I also believe false accusers should get a harsh sentence such as life or capital punishment, since they already "offed" that person's life with a basic lie.

In order to prevent more false accusations and women getting away with just about everything, then gender segregation is probably the best solution. Not to mention ridding the legal system of white knights and feminists.

No it has not. Men have no say when it comes to the womans body. I am not denying this. Men should not have to be forced to have a child the don't want. A common argument is that most women get abortions for financial reasons, how is it justifiable for a woman to do this, but not for a man to do it? Since the man can't control the woman's decision, and shouldn't even try to IMO, its a woman's body, it's her choice. Its a mans life, he should also have a choice.

Good luck with the whole gender segregation thing. I don't think many men, or women will agree with you.

But you are free to segregate yourself any time you choose.

If one wants equality, people have to decide to elect the male-guilt guys (not men) and feminists from high positions in government, legal system, educational institutions, and workplaces. Unfortunately, the other side is the majority so they'll likely support those that only cater to their interests.
I don't believe in segregation.

Someone I was friends with told me that because I support equality for men and women so long as it doesn't violate the 14th Amendment, that I was mysoginistic and a rape apologist.
No.
Someone told you.
It's all a bunch of unfounded idiocies to troll.

Default Why? Because feminists are just like any other extreamist group.

[quote=ellemint;29050640]I agree with this. It's kind of hard to find data supporting the idea that men are oppressed when they still dominate boardrooms, academia, government (80 % of the seats in Congress), and have higher incomes. I mean, what would a man be lobbying for, even more representation in powerful positions? /quote]

Wow...if only that whine had any merit.

So by feminut logic: Because a handful of powerful positions are held by people who have the wealth and connections to keep themselves there, the other 99.99% of the male population can just go *uck itself. Because until female sociopaths make up 50% of those glorious positions, "men" (all men, mind you) are STILL IN POWER and therefore have no legitimate issues about the entire situation!

That isn't fair as it only effects men. If a man has to sign such an agreement, women should as well to get an abortion. Both of those ideas are foolish.

Alimony needs to go away. Both sexes are capable of working.

I have tried. But feminist, male and female, deny this is an issue. They buy into the medical myths.

Feminism no longer exists - it is every man for himself these days...sorry - I mean every woman. I have seen a steady decline in "sisterhood" in the so-called feminism movement. It is now something more selfish and self absorbed than their male counterparts who were once the enemy. Men don't need advocacy groups..what men and woman really need are basic human rights. Something we have forgotten.

Human rights are absent when it comes to family law.
