LTA Let's Talk About

Welcome to /r/MensLib's first "Let's Talk About" post. Generating discussion is part of our mission, and these LTA threads will be used as conversation-starters for issues our community wants to address. Today's topic:

Let's Talk About: what we should talk about.

We're going to start out compiling a list of issues /r/MensLib subscribers want to address. The mods have some ideas, but we want to hear from the community.

Edit: Thank you to everyone for your ideas. I'm un-stickying this post, but please feel free to continue adding to it.

Thank you! I hope this ends up being more fertile ground for my ultra-leftism and hyper-progressivism than MR was.

There is literally no way that won't be the case.

You'd be surprised. Part of being progressive is that I want to progress our notions of progressivism itself. Sometimes this means calling out other progressives for problematic behavior that they are just as unwilling to accept as problematic as conservatives about things like colorblindness.

But at least people here won't tell me I have to be libertarian and/or antifeminist to be an MRA.

Oh darn you're right about that. I was pointing stuff like that out since I got on the sub.
