Yes with divorce laws and child custody in particular.
There is a lot of misandry in the media also that people believe is humorous. Also a lot of things in the dating world slight men. I think the MRA is a proper response to hyper feminism. I just hope it doesn't get blown out of proportion because ultimately I think there should be equality among the sexes.
OR we could just champion the equality and the human cause and bury all those guilty of treating people unfairly, no matter what race, color, creed, gender, height, etc. are.
I'm not an MRA, but I do agree with some of their points. But sometimes they can be just as irritating as feminists. I tend to listen more to MGTOW than MRAs.

Congrats. The book is still an international best seller and raises valid points.
The best part about Warren is he used to be a feminist. He woukd give speeches to women about men and their faults to standing ovations. Then he started looking at women and their faults. The standing ovations stopped. It opened his eyes to the hypocrisy of feminism and the book got its basis.
Read a few excerpts from "The Myth of Male Power" to get an idea. It's a best international seller and a very interesting read from an ex feminist.
Wow, I had no idea, so now socially awkward males have an official acronym...MRA....it's the same hype, it's embarrassing to think that men feel this way....The false rape charges and domestic violence issues are for those lamers to hide behind. The reason there are laws of the effect, if because men are more dangerous, then women....I've seen the arguments, the double standards yada yada...that arguments that women provoke men, and are just as violent as men can be....please, I'm not advocating women to act violently, but the only way a woman could hurt me is with a moving vehicle or a gun....no woman could mentally f with me and cause me deep wounds...Men want to know why they aren't protected? Here are the facts: and since you love to spout off number you should be able to get a picture...
Number of U.S. troops killed in Afghanistan and Iraq: 6,614:
Number of women, in the same period, killed as the result of domestic violence in the US: 11,766
Number of people per minute who experience intimate partner violence in the U.S.: 24
Number of workplace violence incidents in the U.S. annually that are the result of current or past intimate partner assaults: 18,700
Number of women in the U.S. who report intimate partner violence: 1 in 4
Number of women who will experience partner violence worldwide: 1 in 3
blame the brotherhood, you f'd yourselves.
As for divorce and child custody and support....in the long run, in both cases, you ultimately chose what you did, and your experience is a good reason people need to really make good sound choices...stop blaming the law for your F ups....
Eh, there are definitely some ways men have a disadvantage. Any woman without serious, serious defects can find one man willing to date them; many men who are nice guys but aren't physically attractive struggle finding anyone.
Not exactly a MRA issue but many have addressed how male physical abuse is laughed at and the opposite is seen as much more severe.
Although men commit about 90% of the violent crimes, in domestic violence women tend to be more violent. It is a perception that men are these angry violent creatures. Women are just as likely to kill their own children as men.
Stuff like Solange, Hope Solo, etc are laughed at quite often.
I totally understand where you are coming from, but the the number of guys who beat their wives or girlfriends far exceeds the most violent women. Everyday, in court houses across the country, you will see court rooms filled with men on domestic violence charges and maybe one or two women...and those women were probably provoked to get to that level of anger to hit, or stab/shoot the guy.
It's not that men are more angry and violent, it's the fact that men have the capability to cause more damage, when they get mad, or angry....A woman would need a weapon and the element of surprise to hurt me....for me to hurt a woman, I won't need any weapons....
Men are physically stronger, even our voices are more intimidating then a woman's. It's just how it is, and laws are in place to protect the majority, the majority of violence is against women....
What they need to teach in schools, is anger management and domestic violence, and only then will there be any hope...

Im not understanding why this misnomer that men commit more domestic violence than women keeps getting thrown around....there have been several studies over the years that have clearly established that women either commit as much domestic violence as men, or more of it depending on how it is measured...men do cause more damage on average when they retaliate, but its been shown time and time again that women are more often than not the initiators of most domestic violence exchanges.
