I Am An Mra

News just in;

"Yes avfm ( a voice for men) is strongly opposed to marriage because the institution of marriage is nothing more than slavery for men. The same can be said for.having children. Father a child in this gynocentric feminist culture is about as smart as playing ba<x>seball with a live grenade. Marriage is worse. Most MRAs who aren't already married vow to never do so. This is why MRAs and MGTOWs are so close. We share that same philosophy."

This kind of puerile crap is exactly why the MRA is a hate group. It attacks fathers and marriage. What exactly does it stand for in a positive way, I wonder?

this post by ladyblue is worthy of re reposting..>And here's some more showing that women can be treated just as unfairly and unjustly as men by divorce courts, and often end up much poorer than men in the end:http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2009/jan/25/divorce-women-researchhttp://nypost.com/2012/06/24/nj-ex-wives-say-divorce-judge-favors-rich-hubbies/http://www.cnn.com/2012/03/09/opinion/murphy-alimony-overhaul-con/http://www.forbes.com/sites/jefflanders/2011/07/12/in-many-states-alimony-reform-has-gone-too-far/2/http://www.forbes.com/sites/jefflanders/2013/05/17/what-divorcing-women-need-to-know-about-alimony-reform/http://www.huffingtonpost.com/pauline-gaines/why-im-glad-my-ex-stopped_b_1291768.htmlhttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/pauline-gaines/should-the-richer-parent-_b_1905815.htmlhttp://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/tameka-raymond-ushers-status-helped-win-custody/story?id=19969051http://www.divorcesupport.com/columns/archives/dg1-39-98.shtml In addition, now a days many wealthy people insist on having prenuptial agreements before getting married. If men are so afraid that they will be taken to the cleaners if they marry a woman that they love, but they end up getting divorced later on, why not just have her consent to a prenuptial agreement that will ensure that won't be the case instead of refusing to marry and just stay single which often won't lead to a happy, fulfilling, life. If people don't remain single and are in a relationship, but choose not to marry, and to instead just be emotionally committed, they will not get all of the benefits that come with being married such as having to pay less in taxes; getting better and less expensive health insurance; inheriting if their partner dies; having their children not be viewed as illegitimate and suffer the consequences; being able to do certain things with, and for, their partner and children that laws only allow spouses to do; and more. Instead of doing a marriage strike these guys should just do create prenuptial agreements and have the woman they love consent to it and sign it before they get married. They can actually create a prenuptial agreement themselves for free. Then they will feel more confident and secure knowing that if the marriage falls apart their wife won't take them to the cleaners (which now a days is much less likely to be able to occur anyway).

I sure would like to see proof of the "overwhelming evidence" that JB claims "proves that on the whole the divorce courts are bias in women's favor". Most lawyers know that "just ain't so" because they actually work in the courts and see what happens to people all the time that no one else does. The mere fact that men post their whining and complaining claims about how unfairly that they have been treated far more than women do doesn't mean that more men are treated unfairly than women are.
I would also like to see all of the "legal and policy changes" that he claims would benefit women and stop women from becoming victims in the family courts, but that the majority of people these changes would help would be men. I would also like to see his factual proof that "feminists do everything in their power to prevent change".

People who constantly throw out this kind of rhetoric shouldn't assume that people will automatically believe them. Particularly when they have repeatedly been shown to be wrong.

Writing something like this is a complete contradiction of what has been written before. Previous claims have been made that feminists have continuously influenced, are cohorts with, and conspire with politicians to make changes that favor women and not men. If we do everything in our "power to prevent change" how could that possibly be? If we feminists do everything in our "power to prevent change" wouldn't patriarchy still be in existence? Wouldn't almost all women still be stay at home mom's and housewives? Wouldn't almost all jobs be held by men? Wouldn't we still be unable to vote? Wouldn't birth control and abortion still be illegal? Wouldn't higher level universities still be open to males only? Shall I go on and point out more the the "changes" that feminism has brought about?

And people often like songs and find them fun to listen to even though they don't actually agree with what they are singing, or they feel sorry that they person was treated badly, but recognize that most people aren't. Shall I list all of the songs that women have written about being f'ed over by men and how "liked" they were ?

Women hurt more from getting their heart broken than from getting their money taken by their lover, but statistics indicate that we are more capable of moving on. I know I was.

I think sometimes when women have been abused, cheated on, and screwed over by their husband they will try to take him to the cleaners financially when divorce occurs. Its called revenge and sadly its one of the ways a woman scorned feels she can get her revenge and make the man she loves pay for breaking her heart.

The men that this happens to often refuse to accept that they brought it on themselves and instead they will just whine and complain about how their wife has screwed them. They blame it on feminism and often claim that its something almost all women do when that absolutely isn't true. They refuse to accept that their own behavior is what caused it to occur.

A lot of women just let go, move on, and learn from their mistakes. They don't cling to the notion that most men are bad and conniving like the men who've been taken to the cleaners often do about women. The women who let go, move on, and learn from their mistakes recognize that they just fell for a bad man, but most men are not like him, and they just need to learn to recognize and avoid the kind of men who do that kind of thing.

I recall your mentioning this. I have also known plenty of men who have managed to get primary, or at least joint custody. Its sad to say, but often the men who fight for primary custody do so to avoid paying child support, and not because they want to care for, and raise their children, and think they can do it better than their ex wife can.

yep that is why he fought for custody ! he had the oldest child who was a teenager at the time, to care for the younger siblings! as he was out working and playing the single mans game!!
