(29,346 posts)I don't hang out so don't know, I imagine a the kind of man that was continued discrimination would be attracted something associated with men's rights but isn't like there are issues just I don't see issues of -- male victims of domestic violence, rape or any type of sexual reports the lack to report crimes based on the idea they will be laughed at, etc you know how the men's rights guys I'm referring too. This effects both sexes but from the moment we grow up girls are treated very different than males in society generally. Women are often encouraged to express their emotions, communicate, etc males grow up "toughen up" when they show emotions, suck it up, etc. I don't know if that is a men's rights issue but the idea behind Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus are based on this to explain what is causing the communication breakdowns like anger is often used the cover emotions of fear, worry, "weak emotions" this effects both when men are considered rational, logical, & being called "she" or a "woman" is often an insult and believe it or not woman do this as well because we are drilled from parents, schools, etc as ways to behave when a lot of people that men are women are naturally different when there is more to it. I have seen all the good & bad in both sexes, I was married to someone used logic & common sense more than anyone really. Taught me a lot when it comes to respecting yourself which she was the best I ever seen at men or women.
