yeah
what are some examples?
idk, like the Men's Rights sub is the most popular outlet, but it's very freeform
only a few people use facts to back up their arguments or kow where to get those facts
thats not true at all
in fact i'd say the opposite is true, the sub has some of the better quality discussions i come across, and i see lots of sources and links
whats your reddit username?
i don't feel comfortable sharing that. y do u need it?
do you post at MR? it's weird that you would have a problem sharing on the MR discord if that was the case
and can you give examples of people not using facts to back up arguments"
i do, i just started learning how to use discord
ok
i'm not saying they don't
I just think people coming in new don't have an easy way to look at all the facts
and so when they look at discussions, they just instantly think it's misogyny
b/c they don't know where we're coming from
there's a decent link on the sidebar, here
but an official site and some books wouldnt be a bad idea
i
and I think if we just had some more basic fundamental reading we'd make more clear arguments
idk, maybe i'm wrong
i've thought of writing a book, like a guidebook, i know others have too. there aresome decent MRA books already wirtten, but nothing too recent
cassie jayes redpill documentary is a great intro
i rly like that one too
hey can u just gimme the names of the best books you like
and since it seems like ur knowledgeable, can you maybe help me on contributing content. idk where people find all these articles, but I hardly share anything at all. i feel like a leech.
warren farrell has good stuff, "the myth of male power" and "the boy crisis". somewhat old though, a little out of date
and sure, what's something you want to psot about?
DV and legal stuff
I'm ironically getting really into Feminist theory and Feminist history as well
there's a lot of Feminist theory that is shocking and I think makes the case for the MHRM on its own
some stuff like the duluth model and ideas like "domestic violence=power +abuse" sets up a paradigm that erases lived male experiences
google has lots of articles and studies and studies, you can enter something like "male DV victims call polcie arrested", i got this:
or "studies male DV"
a lot of times you will have to read multiple sources and put pieces together, then compare with things feminists organizations say and do
there's little MRA literature because it's never been widely supported, espcially in any university setting. that's why its hard to spread and easy to slander. its an uphill battle
and reading feminist theory is just as important, because anything you post will be attacked with it, so you need to know the inconsistencies and flaws
