Women work less.

Where's the equal contribution?

@Tekla_Too @honnasiri @SeptimusSulla @sesmiel @anon95123 @SSingh_06 @gypsy_nilima @PoonamSharma__ @PhilMitchell83 @Oneiorosgrip There was a time in which only men were awarded custody of children if a married couple ever split. During that period, men had to be the breadwinner and the homemaker, but modern women do not seem capable of working as much as men of olden times.

Why is that?
@Tekla_Too @honnasiri @SeptimusSulla @sesmiel @anon95123 @SSingh_06 @gypsy_nilima @PoonamSharma__ @PhilMitchell83 @Oneiorosgrip Regarding when men always got custody in divorce, consider "Lagging Behind the Times: Parenthood, Custody, and Gender Bias in the Family Court" by Cynthia A. McNeely published in 1998 in Volume 25 of the _Florida State University Law Review_ page 891 (ir.law.fsu.edu/cgi/viewconten…).

@MichaelGLFlood Kind of hard to "[e]ngage men at [any] level [or] …walk the walk" when you're publically caught advocating in favor of punishing the innocent accused by tweeting that MRAs are acting against rape accusers with support from an article arguing fighting false accusations is wrong.
@MichaelGLFlood The paper that @MichaelGLFlood cites is "Sexual Violence in the ‘Manosphere’: Antifeminist Men’s Rights Discourses on Rape" by Lise Gotell and Emily Dutton and published in 2016 in the _International Journal for Crime, Justice and Social Democracy_ (xyonline.net/sites/xyonline…).

@MichaelGLFlood Gotell and Dutton 2016?

Do you mean the feminists who bragged that they succeeded in making men's innocence almost impossible to demonstrate (xyonline.net/sites/xyonline…, p.66)?

@MichaelGLFlood @eccentrikhat Oh when you back pedaled when you realized you argued against men protesting to be able to defend their innocence and asking women not to make false allegations? You seem to not to read the academic papers you cite as you don’t realize what is in them. Let’s go down memory lane.
@MichaelGLFlood @eccentrikhat The paper @MichaelGLFlood presents complains that MRAs in Canada are illegitimately challenging the feminists gains regarding the "affirmative consent" standard for rape. Let's go point for point and see what is reasonable.
@MichaelGLFlood @eccentrikhat "Canada has moved towards an affirmative consent standard…. There is no implied consent in Canadian law; silence and ambiguity cannot be taken as indicating agreement to engage in sex; and consent must be active throughout a sexual encounter." @MichaelGLFlood's paper, p. 66.

@Tekla_Too What the Selective Service wrote is correct, but misleading. The issue is that failing to register for the draft is a felony and most state laws preclude (for a time, at least) voting by felons (felonvoting.procon.org/state-felon-vo…; aclu.org/issues/voting-…).
@Tekla_Too “If required to register with Selective Service, failure to register is a felony punishable by a fine of up to $250,000 and/or 5 years imprisonment“ (sss.gov/register/benef…). 18 U.S.C. §3571(b)(3); 50 U.S. Code §§ 3802, 3811 (fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/R…, p. 23).
@Tekla_Too As the @NationalNOW argued, "Congress’s decision to exclude women from the male-only registration requirement denies women a key aspect of their citizenship. To reap equal rewards of citizenship, women must equally bear its burdens" (supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/20/2…, p. 4).
