Many activists do go out of their way to pick a fight. Women activists are no different. The gaming world is rife with socially awkward, insecure men. Taking on their culture is like playing piñata with a hornet's nest. What do these activists expect?

Actually I think it is not a big deal regardless.

As a lawyer, I would be interested in making the argument that both the by-law and its enforcement is discriminatory. Firstly, the by-law is framed such that it only targets males. For instance, it fails to capture equally poor transit etiquette, such as place bags, purses and other things on seats. Also there is no…

This raises the issue of whether the by-law or its enforcement is discriminatory. Why not include conduct such as taking up excess space using a purse? Or having an SUV sized stroller? Also there are women who take up excess space on transit too ... If the arrest statistics show that all people arrested are male, it…

...Then hate on "beefcake" spas at the same time

If this were an Olive’s Garden, there would be a case of discrimination to argue. However, the nature of places like Hooters is distinct from a mere restaurant; the qualifications of working at such an establishment are not analogous to that of any other server. It is also worth pointing out that except for maybe…

Then I should be able to get drafted into the NHL despite sucking balls at hockey... Or be hired to be an underwear model despite being 50lbs. overweight.

Men don’t go to these types of places to meet women to engage in intellectually stimulating dialogue, hear her views on the solution to global, warming, stability in the Middle East or the eradication of world hunger... They go there to see hotties in low-cut shirts serve them beer! Sorry, but a muscular woman who can…

Yeah I agree. Obviously physical appearance can be a bona fide occupational requirement in certain circumstances. This is one of them. The only issue is whether the rejection was unduly classless. I was not there, so I don't know.

...So we are sounding the alarm because women are being mistreated by the knob??? He has done dehumanizing and degrading things to male inmates for ages. Why is the media only giving a shit now? Or I guess society won't tolerate women being treated like....................men

This is cultural relativism. There is no "women crisis", owing to the mere fact that attitudes toward gender roles and relations is not identical to that of dominant US and European trends.

Then why rag on this dude? I know this site likes ragging on dudes just for the sake of it lol... But in this case, it is just gratuitous ragging. At least save it for something anti-social lol

By the tone of this piece, I am guessing (1) you have never been proposed to; and (2) you likely own three or more cats.

There is no law prohibiting such conduct. Also there is not much of a demand for penis pics.

This needs to be analysed in the greater context of addressing sexual violence. On its own, it is ineffective. However, it is a necessary component of a greater movement in that it serves to not alienate the vast majority of men who are not part of the problem. Remember, failing to be part of the solution, whatever…

I am a proud troll, both on and off line. I resent people calling this dude a troll. His behaviour goes beyond the mere annoying, vexing or disruptive to criminal in nature. The threats, stalking and suicide counselling shit is NOT part of trolling culture; that is just outright psycho.

Also I find it interesting that the flippant blurb about young women with college degrees outearning their male counterparts interesting. I made that remark a few times on other articles only to be called a "MRA troll."

Why would you presume abuse in the face of an unproven allegation? There is a presumption of innocence at play. This is a clear-cut example of using allegations of abuse to gain an upper hand in the civil context. Most of the other posts on here support that reasoning. Strangely enough, the same are likely dismissive…

I am a MRA and I wouldn’t defend this guy? What is your suggestion? Anyone who disagrees with any tenet of feminism is a MRA? Or anyone voicing legitimate criticism of feminism supports rape?

Male feminists have about the same moral authority as Jews who were wilfully complicit in the Holocaust. Not that holding extremist views like some MRAs are much better. However, I notice some male feminists (manginas) over play the knight in shining armour routine, sometimes to the point of lunacy.
