There's been a lot of talk touching on issues related to this in other threads lately and it's a topic that's important to me, so I thought I'd make a thread on it for discussion.
This thread is about the men's rights movement. Generally speaking, men's rights advocates, or MRAs for short, are people who advocate for fair and equal treatment for men, both under the law and in society at large. The men's rights movement is a very loosely defined movement with as much variation in opinion as you would find within supporters of a popular political party or in a popular religion like Christianity. However, there are a number of issues that tend to be frequently discussed by MRAs, such as some of the issues listed here.
So, let's discuss the men's rights movement and some popular men's issues, such as those listed in the link I gave. To start things off, what do you think of the men's rights movement in general? What are your feelings on some of the issues MRAs frequently bring up? Which men's rights issues, if any, do you feel are valid, and why (or why not)? Try to keep in mind that the men's rights movement isn't a single, unified group and that many MRAs disagree on specific points. Feel free to bring up anything else related to the topic even if it's not related to something I touched on here.
