| 1 | Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both gendersI haven't personally talked to a trans person about this, but I've read about their experience as both genders. The only thing I've read is about them receiving more respect when they pass as male. But I haven't read enough to know if it is representative. What knowledge did you gain from speaking to trans people? And how do you know if it's representative? | /r/MensRights | 01/07/22 02:33 PM |
| 1 | Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both gendersSorry for the late replay. I absolutely do not mean equal outcome! Equal opportunity is the main issue, however social equality is hard to measure and implement, so I'm most focused on ensuring that double standards are eliminated. Like new fathers not being ignored at the hospital, but also given information about being a new dad and resources to help with postpartum depression (which can also effect men). Or women in male dominated jobs not being taken as seriously as their male coworkers by c… | /r/MensRights | 01/07/22 02:28 PM |
| 1 | Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both gendersI looked it up quick. I support gender based models like this, but not as a universal model against all DM. It's important to map out what DM against women looks like, but equally important to do same with male victims. Then you will find out if there are any differences between male and female victims and what their abuse looks like, so we can make policy changes that fit the needs of both men and women. | /r/MensRights | 25/06/22 12:33 AM |
| 1 | Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both gendersInternalized misandry is a less polarizing and negative word, yes. I think I will use that instead of toxic masculinity, even though I still "like" the original name, because I don't want to alienate or come across as belittling men. Feminism needs to think more about how men/masculinity are represented in discourses and terminology! I think as woman, I try to see things from the male perspective but I will never truly understand these types of connotations, because I don't know what if feels li… | /r/MensRights | 25/06/22 12:27 AM |
| 1 | Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both gendersWhen you say feminism accomplished and campaigned for I'm assuming you're talking about feminist organizations? I agree thats a good place to look, however only if the organization is truly feminist (again with the definition..) If an organization is campaigning for only female gender quotas in universities and not for male gender quotas in for example nursing studies (if they lack male student) or any other study program that lacks male representation and needs it, they are not a feminist organ… | /r/MensRights | 25/06/22 12:13 AM |
| 2 | Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both gendersThen we're back to the question about definition: in my eyes those who are only for women getting privileges are not feminists. Not acknowledging that men are victims of DV and in need of their own shelters are not only assholes, but ignorant in understanding equality. There should be really strong arguments to make this type of inequality ok. I'm from a country with conscription for men and women so hearing that "feminists" are against equal responsibility is just sad. I agree that for the most… | /r/MensRights | 24/06/22 11:59 PM |
| 1 | Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both gendersIn general families in Saudi Arabia are patrilineal, family lineage derives through the father, women are associated with the families honor and is therefore expected to act according to social morals since her behaviour reflects back on her family. There is a guardian system where certain things are illegal for a woman to do without the permission of a male guardian, regardless of age. (Opening a bank account, getting a passport, travelling abroad https://culturalatlas.sbs.com.au/saudi-arabian-… | /r/MensRights | 24/06/22 11:15 PM |
| 1 | Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both gendersI definetely agree on the umbrella term. That is why i dislike people stating feminist think this, feminists think that, because there are so many differing views under the feminist label. Yes we agree on equality, but not what equality means in detail. It's not helpful to any debate to disregard nuances. I think it all comes down to who holds the power over defining who are included as feminists and who are excluded. Labelling myself as a feminist is important to me because it acknowledges the … | /r/MensRights | 24/06/22 10:16 PM |
| 0 | Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both gendersWho decides who real feminists are? Misandry and feminism can not exist together. If someone claims to be a feminist but has misandristic views then they are not a feminist. How can someone who holds views that is the opposite of what the movement stand for be considered part of the movement? North Korea calling itself democratic doesn't mean it is actually democratic. If real feminism is as you say misandry, the opposite of equality of the sexes, then feminism does not exist? Feminism is politi… | /r/MensRights | 24/06/22 09:34 PM |
| 1 | Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both gendersI understand your argument about the stereotypical narrative of male oppressor, however do you think these concepts are never useful in describing certain geo-historical power relations between men and women? For example isn't patriarchy a fitting concept to describe a system in which creates and upholds male superiority and power over women. Like in Saudi Arabia. Toxic masculinity describes real traits that society or some parts of it pressure men to have. Like, never showing emotions that can … | /r/MensRights | 24/06/22 09:20 PM |
| 2 | Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both gendersI've never heard of that fallacy before, just googled it. So I think I can understand how my wording makes it a fallacy, but isn't it possible to critique the generalization that was made by OP without it being a fallacy? Is it far-fetched to believe that media can represent issues in a certain way to gather views and clicks, and thus favors highlighting more extreme or controversial views/voices which create more engagement? Also is it unlikely that the femininst who are willing to talk to the … | /r/MensRights | 24/06/22 08:18 PM |
| -8 | Just because I’m not a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t support equal rights for both gendersI'm a feminist and I agree that we do not have monopoly on equality. Honestly I care more about people supporting equal rights than what they call themselves. However, I think it's innacurate to generalize feminists the way your are. Feminists in the media and news don't necessarily represent the majority of feminists. This movement only agrees on a few things: social, political, economical equality. By that I mean feminists are a diverse group with a lot of different views on what is sexist, wh… | /r/MensRights | 24/06/22 11:35 AM |
