'Trust Women Week' for Female Repro Rights - and Male Repro Rights Are...?
Submitted by Matt on Wed, 2012-01-25 01:26
MoveOn.org is leading Trust Women Week, a 'virtual march' for women's reproductive rights. No mention at all of male reproductive rights, or the complete lack thereof. Anyone else feel like it's time MRAs had their own virtual (or real) march for male reproductive rights? I do.

Bullshit -- they are the 99%
The descriptive material for this campaign, which can be found here
http://oursilverribbon.org/
says that NOW, which is behind this campaign, represents the 99%. This is clearly an attempt to co-op the Occupy Movement. NOW is NOT the 99%.
NOW women are such liars. But we (men) are supposed to "trust women" in spite of this fact? That's one of very big reasons why I don't trust women. They are blatant liars, and they do it almost all the time. Makeup, hair color, lies about their age, breast implants, debts, the list is a long one. This is a ludicrous campaign.
On a lighter note, I think it is a good sign that NOW thinks we need to "trust women." NOW must sense that many men do not trust American women, and with good reason (given their abuse of divorce laws, rape laws, domestic violence laws, etc.). So I take the wording of this campaign as a win for the Mens Rights Movement. The word that women are untrustworthy is getting out there.
I wonder if the designers of this campaign know anything at all about psychology. Apparently not. The very request to "trust me," begins an internal process of asking "should I trust her or not?" For many people, they start a conversation about the campaign by assuming the woman speaking these words is trustworthy. But now that she mentioned trust, perhaps these people should reevaluate where they stand on women's lies... hmmm....
For a discussion about how women lie, almost all the time, about a very wide variety of things, see Tom Leykis episode #112:

Brilliant
Brilliant post! I could not agree more. If MRA's ever have anything for Male Reproductive Rights (of which we have none), I will travel by plane, train, and automobile to get there!
