Let's talk about these unfair courts and rape laws.

I see in my newsfeed stories of MRAs arguing to legalize rape

That person is anti-MRA actually.

I have seen enough concerning posts to know that many here think women are "using rape as an agenda" which completely disregards the pain and suffering and fear experienced by women everywhere.

Too many women do and it is freightening that there are campaigns designed to aid them. This should not disregard the pain and suffering of legitimate victims in any way, because it is the same standard all crimes are held to.

False and unsubstantiated accusations (varying from 1.5% upwards to 8% of all rape accusations) does constitute a larger oppression. If more men came forward with claims of rape, and 5% falsely accused women of rape, I am quite sure there wouldn't be a huge outcry from feminists. They have other more pressing concerns.

Those percentages were collected by how many claims had evidence they were false. You know how only a small percentage of rape claims have evidence evidence of exactly what happened because a "he said she said" is inherently unknowable? Yeah it is exactly that, only it has the extra burden of proving a negative. Truth is the crossover rate could very well be half, considering the upper and lower bounds of credible claims.

Advocate for men's issues. Raise awareness. But stop blaming female rape victims for taking away men's rights.

No one is blaming the victims, just those who use the victims to further disgusting agendas. I hope you realize just how strongly society feels about rapists and protecting women in particular and realize that you are being exploited.

There are many feminists who acknowledge that sexual violence and domestic violence happen to men.

Do you have any idea how patronizing that sounds? You said you were a victim, how would you feel if I thought saying 'Now now, a lot of use here would feel that rape is something which might actually happen sometimes and it isn't all just regret' and expect that to be a plus to win you over?

Just out of curiosity could you give me a percentage of funding men get for any issue they face which women face at any rate higher? Like if 51% of the victims are women and 49% are male of some supposed thing, could you tell me how much funding are directed towards men?

Mens rights are needed and far beyond the box you think. Masculinity and gender roles aside, people lack the compassion for men which is ingrained within them for women, and it is a shame telling people that we matter too is being seen as an attack.
