Maybe

Do you think there will be protestors and stuff?

Oh wow it's at the airport

i probably wont but its good to see them do it every year!

Yeah I might go

Chicago is a hike by car but doable

i might donate

I'll have to see if I'll be able to get off work etc

I do think it would be healthy to meet other people that share my views

ive often posted about doing MRA meetups

never get much traction

Where would the meetups occur ?

anywhere, really. people could have local city meetups, could be someone's house, a bar, the library, whatever. even if its just 3 people, just to build a network and real sense of community

I’m in the Chicago area.

Might be tough for me. I get a bit of social anxiety

Might be fine though. When do you guys want to meet up?

I'm in the philly area

im in l.a

i mean ive posted this to the sub multiple times over the least 2 years or so

never goes anywhere

Yeah la is a.l bit far for me

ieally i see it as lots of little local networks

Oo

I think if you were to organise a meet at the conference itself a lot more people might come. Unfortunately, America is an ocean away for me. Lol

Ah, would be great to have you @Men Are Human

Well I can recommend some hotels for those going.

Thanks. :) It would be great to actually go and meet some of you all.

thinks will happen naturally to. MRAs will eventually find each other in schools,at work, etc

in the real world

i live in germany so unfortunately hard to manage

but hey my romanian passport allows me to go visa-free to canada. where i can get arrested for saying things the government doesn't like

Any Brit or people with VPNs manage to watch this?

Abused By My Girlfriend: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p0700912 via @bbciplayer

I just saw it. Its good that's being covered

I liked the ending. But fuck she got two 6 year sentences but gets to serve them concurrently? That's a joke tbh.

Did she? Yea it is... I missed that bit

Yeah. And 6 months for controlling and coercive behaviour

Her interview was really spooky.
"I had the knife because I wanted him to come back in the house"
"I cut him but I didn't stab him"

Trying to .minimise the damage she caused. Typical of abusers

Lol. That's kind of scary if *that* is considered to be better

Someone should tell me some positive news in the MRM

Male suicide rate is down in the UK
