Some places in the world still have women's rights issues(mainly Africa).

Feminists can speak out against the women actually oppressed. However, they'll decide to whine over jokes that no one actually takes seriously.

*Feminazi (not saying all Feminists are Feminazis, this woman is)
But really, people who act like this woman have absolutely no place in any form of politics.

Sounds like a normal politician to me.

He also is against gay marriage, but that isn't the point in this case, he still made a valid point which was laughed at unjustly. She's my MP, she's supposed to represent my (her constituents) interests, not her own.

It's important in equality that everyone is treated fairly, I understand that some people might feel they are under represented, but laughing at mens issues isn't a way to solve it. Also trying to make things unequal to try and restore the balance isn't the way to deal with it.


But .....Philip Davis is a idiot.... Russell Howard talked about him a couple of times, and the guy is a fool and shouldn't be an mp.

Less than 0.1 % of men run everything, 99.9% of men don't run anything and It is of no comfort or relevance to a homeless guy that most of the rich people in his country are from his gender. We only live one life so to say we as agroup run everything is pathetic.

Let's just pick a day to discuss equality instead.

Naming a men's day just seems obnoxious and like a reaction to feminism.

Maybe, if you had absolutely zero clue what it's for.  

"The objectives of celebrating an International Men's Day include focusing on men's and boys' health, improving gender relations, promoting gender equality, and highlighting positive male role models.^[5][6] It is an occasion to highlight discrimination against men and boys and to celebrate their achievements and contributions, in particular for their contributions to community, family, marriage, and child care.^[7][8] The broader and ultimate aim of the event is to promote basic humanitarian values"

Yeah...all of those things are obnoxious.  Health is obnoxious, gender relations are obnoxious, gender equality is obnoxious, male role models...you guessed it, obnoxious.  Humanitarian values?  Yep, Obnoxious.

Also interesting?  Has support from UNESCO:

"International Men's Day finds support from a variety of individuals and groups in Australia, the Caribbean, North America, Asia, Europe and Africa.^[2][4] Speaking on behalf of UNESCO, Director of Women and Culture of Peace Ingeborg Breines said of IMD, "This is an excellent idea and would give some gender balance." She added that UNESCO was looking forward to cooperating with the organizers.^[2]"

Ermagerd, Director of Women and Culture of Peace supports it.  She's obnoxious too!

Having these things is important because men and women face different issues, health wise, gender wise, role model wise, etc...  It isn't ALL about equality, though equality is important as well.  

I'm just curious. If someone you care about says "man, if I have to work another day I'm gonna drop dead"... do you start shopping around for funeral attire?

Words have meanings in discussions, use them properly, or not at all.  Or, don't play stupid when someone calls you out for misusing them.
