yeah

2019-06-10 17:44:14 UTC  

what are some examples?

2019-06-10 17:45:03 UTC  

idk, like the Men's Rights sub is the most popular outlet, but it's very freeform

2019-06-10 17:45:39 UTC  

only a few people use facts to back up their arguments or kow where to get those facts

2019-06-10 17:45:53 UTC  

thats not true at all

2019-06-10 17:46:23 UTC  

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

2019-06-10 17:46:29 UTC  

whats your reddit username?

2019-06-10 17:47:27 UTC  

i don't feel comfortable sharing that. y do u need it?

2019-06-10 17:48:02 UTC  

do you post at MR? it's weird that you would have a problem sharing on the MR discord if that was the case

2019-06-10 17:48:17 UTC  

and can you give examples of people not using facts to back up arguments"

2019-06-10 17:48:24 UTC  

i do, i just started learning how to use discord

2019-06-10 17:48:35 UTC  

ok

2019-06-10 17:48:37 UTC  

i'm not saying they don't

2019-06-10 17:49:19 UTC  

I just think people coming in new don't have an easy way to look at all the facts

2019-06-10 17:49:45 UTC  

and so when they look at discussions, they just instantly think it's misogyny

2019-06-10 17:49:58 UTC  

b/c they don't know where we're coming from

2019-06-10 17:50:16 UTC  

there's a decent link on the sidebar, here

2019-06-10 17:50:26 UTC  

but an official site and some books wouldnt be a bad idea

2019-06-10 17:50:53 UTC  

i

2019-06-10 17:51:14 UTC  

i've read through that, it's pretty good, i just don't think the majority read through it

2019-06-10 17:52:19 UTC  

and I think if we just had some more basic fundamental reading we'd make more clear arguments

2019-06-10 17:52:27 UTC  

idk, maybe i'm wrong

2019-06-10 17:52:55 UTC  

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

2019-06-10 17:53:13 UTC  

cassie jayes redpill documentary is a great intro

2019-06-10 17:54:22 UTC  

i rly like that one too

2019-06-10 17:54:33 UTC  

hey can u just gimme the names of the best books you like

2019-06-10 17:55:36 UTC  

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.

2019-06-10 17:56:24 UTC  

warren farrell has good stuff, "the myth of male power" and "the boy crisis". somewhat old though, a little out of date

2019-06-10 17:56:41 UTC  

and sure, what's something you want to psot about?

2019-06-10 17:57:30 UTC  

DV and legal stuff

2019-06-10 17:57:59 UTC  

I'm ironically getting really into Feminist theory and Feminist history as well

2019-06-10 17:58:58 UTC  

there's a lot of Feminist theory that is shocking and I think makes the case for the MHRM on its own

2019-06-10 17:59:46 UTC  

some stuff like the duluth model and ideas like "domestic violence=power +abuse" sets up a paradigm that erases lived male experiences

2019-06-10 18:00:12 UTC  

google has lots of articles and studies and studies, you can enter something like "male DV victims call polcie arrested", i got this:

2019-06-10 18:00:32 UTC  

or "studies male DV"

2019-06-10 18:00:56 UTC  

a lot of times you will have to read multiple sources and put pieces together, then compare with things feminists organizations say and do

2019-06-10 18:02:36 UTC  

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

2019-06-10 18:03:06 UTC  

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
