Right, exactly. Hence why they banned r/againstwomensrights but not r/againstmensrights, even though the first is a satirical response to the second, and even though men are the minority of the population
And in their content policy they say that what wouldn't be allowed is a
Comment arguing that rape of women should be acceptable and not a crime.
Which the most stupid example that they could give, given that anytime anyone downplays rape or argues that it's acceptable and shouldn't be a crime, they're pretty much always arguing about the rape of men
E.g. men being raped in prison, boys being raped by women, etc. is like the only time people find the Especially Heinous crime of rape suddenly funny. When it comes to the marginalization of rape, it's males in particular who need protection from it
They could have just as well said
Comment arguing that rape should be acceptable and not a crime.
But no, they had to make an exception specifically to allow attacks on male victims to not be banned

I clicked on the link to /r/againstmensrights and found this:
This subreddit is for exposing the hate and bigotry of the so-called "men's rights movement." We comb the internet for egregious examples of hate and post them here -- whether it's cissexism, homophobia, or misogyny, it's posted here.
It is not a sub that is against the rights of men. It is a subreddit that ridicules and brings attention to the bigotry of MRA's.
I was going to ask if you just didn't bother to check or if you were actively misrepresenting the situation. Then I clicked your user history and found out it was the latter.
Edit: Holy shit have you downvoter's never run into the toxic shit MRA's get up to? I never thought something so obvious would be so controversial. The guy I am speaking with comments in numerous hate subs.
Edit 2: Some "men's rights" groups are literally designated hate groups
