Feminism is actively being an obstacle to prevent any meaningful help towards men. Those who are actively in power have the loudest voice for the Feminist movement. We can't just No True Scotsman that argument away because these are people running organizations like NOW and actively influencing politicians to make laws that discriminate against men.

I would love to share this with the left wing community honestly. I would love see how they would propose addressing this because they are already losing support from men and they have a significantly larger support from young women.

While I am trying to be cautiously optimistic on this, I can't help but feel like there's political ulterior motives. I genuinely want to believe there will be plenty of a good to come out of this but I also see this being something that both Democrats and Republicans to use to try to win over Male voters. I have so many mixed feelings on this. It's hard to say, I truly hope more positives come out of this than negatives.

Because Jubilee picked him for this conversation. I don't trust Jubilee to pick right people, based on their terrible track record with men issues. I feel like Jubilee has been very much against the whole Men's Issue thing because they always intentionally find the worst people that would represent the side in favor of addressing Men's Issues. They have no interest in discussing the nuances of Men's Issues in a neutral or even in a fair manner. It's obvious their agenda is vilify anyone who even…

Yea, I have been saying this for a while now. A lot of women, feminist women to be exact, complain that male only spaces are there to reinforce sexism against women. The truth is that the reason they believe this is because those women use their "women only" spaces to complain, vent, and say very sexist stuff about men behind closed doors with no push back and all in the name of "Sisterhood."

I genuinely do wonder if the people on the left realize that the main reason they lost (and are losing still) is because they keep actively pushing young men to the right. Very actively helping those like Trump win over more young minds, because of how they constantly demonize them. It's not only men but even with the working class at large too. But with that said, I keep wondering this myself as well. I have even pointed it out to many left wingers and yet many of them still refuse to take any …

The crazy thing is that I know plenty of people on the left that do acknowledge the struggles that men go through too. They seemingly find themselves in a situation where they're going to lose either way. I'm at a point where I am struggling to support the left even though I am left of center.

Yea it's for the most part true. Social media and legacy media have been pushing a lot of anti male rhetoric for a good while now and for a lot of guys, this has been damaging to their mental health. What concerns me is that people on the Left still don't take it serious enough or they still refuse to believe the rhetoric is real for anecdotal reasons. Heck they still refuse to accept responsibility for turning so many men against them as well.

It was over the name change. The Boy scouts dropped the "Boy" part and apparently it led to parents enrolling their daughters into the organization over the Girl Scouts because of some apparent confusion.

What I often get annoyed with is why those women only subreddits justify being allowed to do so. I often hear have women need to have safe spaces for safety reasons and yet somehow there's always this belief that men are reinforcing sexism if we had our own space. It sounds like to me, those women only spaces are projecting this notion because some of those spaces are purposely being sexist themselves against men.

I agree with a lot of the video. It is true. Left Wingers and Democrats spent a good decade give or take denigrating men and demonizing masculinity and labeling everything that's toxic about it. They failed to offer a positive version or several examples of positive male roles model outside of Fred Rogers. Yea, it's a no brainer, when you demonize men and use the sins of their fathers as justification then don't be surprised when they turn to people like Tate.

And this is something I find rather disappointing considering Young Men significantly help Trump win in the US 2024 Presidential Election. I am aware Democrats are Spending $20 Million to study these men and yet what we have gotten from that research a year later is this website. I am really getting tired of the majority of Democrats not actually trying to put any effort in talk to young men or even meet them where they're at.

One of the things I had to do was really clean house and work on fixing the algorithm on my social media feed. It made my own mental health significantly better. I also sadly had to unfollow and block some pages that I used to love because their content got to be too polarizing and creating too much sensationalism. The last thing I did was actively make an effort to log off for a few hours and just be in the moment. This might be significantly easier to do in a smaller town but regardless, just …

What I find rather fascinating about this is that these Feminists absolutely want us to call the men out behind closed doors too. They want to police the language of men that are often times speaking in private situations that should not be even recorded.

That's kind of insane that Feminists hate that subreddit too. I've found that many Feminists would promote that Subreddit in many mental health spaces where men might visit. I believe the huge Feminist bias of that place led to this Subreddit being created.

NGL this reminds me of when Cancel Culture was at its peak and the proponents of that said culture would use a similar answer to tell you that Cancel Culture wasn't real. They would say the only Cancel Culture exists in a region in city or place in place in Germany that has a name that pronounced the same way as Cancel and that's the only Cancel Culture and instead what really was going was consequences.

This doesn't really surprise me. Although I was never officially diagnosed, I was told by a psychologist back in 2005 that I had all the traits of Asperger's Syndrome. I know that term is no longer used but one time I used the term and an autistic woman very rudely informed me how outdated the term was and pretty went off on a rant of how insensitive it was to use that term.

It also makes it impossible to exist in progressive spaces because if someone says "men bad" it obviously means patriarchy bad and if you question it you're the kind of man they're talking about. And "criticizing the patriarchy" this way has become so normal that jokes that only serve to belittle masculine traits have become commonplace, which is especially lovely if you're insecure or dysphoric about them. And this is one of the many factors as to why Men as a huge collective have left the "Lef…

Remember when there was an uproar over HeLa cells being taken and used without the consent of Henrietta Lacks? The most I remember is a book was written about the family being outraged and there was an HBO movie with Oprah in it. But that was in 2017 when I had to read the book for a college class. That was also in my SJW phase of life where I had a college professor peddling the SJW outrage in response to Trump.

So the boys get physically assaulted and the girls just get a suspension? I know my parents generation was generally speaking the last generation here in the USA where teachers were allowed hit students with a ruler or swat students as they called it.

I'd love to see a few papers published on this topic. What concerns me though is that a lot of the publishers might reject the papers for numerous reasons. For mostly political reasons, I feel like that is the reason we haven't seen anything on the topic. Publishing papers would be an acknowledgement that misandry is in fact real, which we all know it is here, and there are factions of Academia that refuses to even acknowledge that misandry is real and also a huge problem.

Yea that's exactly what I was feeling in my case. In the colleges, I kind of realized a lot of the leadership groups and committees ran by students were often hand picked women. I also recall seeing a lot of male students apply for those positions and not one of them got selected, it felt weird. What sucked too was that it was happening in a time when being sexist against men was considered "nonexistent."

Yea no surprise there. While I can't prove it, I too believe I've been overlooked for employment opportunities in favor of women. I know during my college years, I was turned down for internships on campus only to see that all the internships available were filled by women. Once again I didn't have the hard proof but I kind of just felt it because of the people who made the final decisions were kind of biased towards women.

I wonder if in the future the left will ever own up to *also contributing to harm I think it will be split 50/50 and depends on where the left is located. A lot of rural left wingers are more likely to admit the left has had a huge shortcoming with men's issues and not being able to fully address them since the Left is an avid player of the zero sum game. It also helps that rural areas tend to be more conservative politically so the left is sometimes force to adopt some conservative views hence …

Wasn't it about 12 years ago in Toronto when a college campus held a public event to address issues that men faced and a group of protesting Feminists pulled the fire alarm?

I used to love sociology. The problem was that when I kept studying it, there was nothing really new. I would study sociology of race and gender followed by drugs and alcohol.

They do it because to acknowledge its existence, they have to admit women have agency and power to negatively affect men. This is precisely it.

Anyways the real meaning of cakeism is when someone tries to benefit from 2 mutually exclusive choices simultaneously. In this case, it's common for Feminist Women try to benefit from both the biological and societal expectations of being a woman and yet also benefit from the equality afforded to them as Feminists that were once traditionally societal benefits gi…

In my opinion, I think that idea became controversial the moment that Feminists managed to take control of the narratives pushed by modern day media. Because Feminists have pushed this notion that only women have issues and have it so hard, it's become a taboo to even push back or speak against it or else you get labeled negatively.

IMO, when Trump took office for his first term as POTUS and the MeToo movement took off, it flipped the whole political climate sideways. Just overnight, it felt like there was no longer a such thing as neutrality anymore or even a middle ground. Being a centrist was now bad thing. All this had an effect on topics like Feminist myths or even criticizing the movement.

Feminists insist that the Patriarchy is there to benefit all men and yet you're now saying that it only benefits rich and powerful men. That goes well against the narrative of what a Patriarchy is supposed to be. Also there are women in the ranks of the rich and powerful as well. A true Patriarchal Oligarchy would have no women in it at all.

That's not what it's saying. It's demonstrating the Apex Fallacy. And there are a lot of issues that men face where they do have it worse and it should require regular attention but it doesn't. Great example is homelessness is an issue that affects more men than women and yet it seems like it's easier for homeless women to have shelters and programs available to ensure they won't be homeless for long. Men are not given those same opportunities.

That's kind of the point here I want to make with the memes. Even if they deny them, I can still show them and show an actual source material. I can tell them how their "jokes" got Trump elected, or show proof the memes they deny ever seeing did exist. The thing is those quotes are great for proof but they weren't used in the memes created by the Feminists. Even screenshots of a whole collection of article titles from the left wing outlets would work as well. Although knowing them, they would tr…

If you want to show them proof, you don’t need to depend on memes. What about the endless supply of anti-male and gynocentric quotes from feminists and Democrats?

Yea I think we all are skeptical when it comes to their research and stuff but it seems like they are more committed to this lip service than they have been in years past. I really wish they would've done more research on why the younger men felt more compelled to vote for the GOP over the DNC . Maybe if they studied that reasoning, they would likely get a better understanding of where the Democrats went wrong when it came to male voters.

I have been told numerous times that I shouldn't take any of it personal or seriously. I have been told that these people don't really mean it or they're just venting their frustrations. Yet somehow the complaints have seemingly got worse and have started to feel more personal. Now the new excuse…

Wait it was an academic paper that led to Feminists using and even abusing the term "Toxic Masculinity?!" Yea that kind of checks out I guess. It's fascinating how Gender Studies has become this obnoxious degree that's represented the Feminist Movement in a nutshell.

That's exactly it. There is a misconception that the reason why the male suicide rate is so high is because men don't seek help. Well a lot of men do seek help and the help is often times not helpful at all. A lot of these therapists don't really offer any good advice other than invalidating their problems or telling them how others have it worse.

Yea I get the vibe that she said the quiet part out loud with this one too. Not only is it casual misandry, she is practically taking a page of the playbook that other pop stars used as well. Taylor Swift and Kelly Clarkson both seemingly did the same things in their career as well with slight variations to be differentiated a bit. But then again many female pop singers make these kinds of songs because that's a money maker and it's very unfortunate. This isn't different from Female standup comi…

Nope I am not a bot. I have often wondered this and I don't understand why you Feminists don't use the term Toxic Feminity. You insist it's not real and I often feel like that's stupid.

Well it's not necessarily advancing men's rights or solving men's issues directly but I can say, being part of the Knights of Columbus has actually helped given a lot of men a sense of solidarity and somewhat of a purpose and community.

I'm not really a Marxist and although I do understand who Karl Marx was and his theories, I have a lot of criticisms about his theories. With that said, both Feminism and Critical Race Theory both use elements of Marxism and change who the oppressors are.

That's good news. Those places are way too toxic and they need to be deleted and taken down. If such a place existed for men to dox and harass women, it would be gone immediately or within a month or possibly a week of being launched, maybe even a day. The point it would never be allowed for men to do these things to women and yet it's perfectly fine for men to be harassed and doxxed by "harmless" (toxic) women.

Heck even when they acknowledge the short-sightedness, or the shortcomings, or just the whole issue of the Left failing to properly or meaningfully address issues affecting men, they still find a way to shoehorn women's issues into it.

Everytime I seek advice, either I don't really get the ideal answers and more often than not, I get my problems invalidated. Even if I get any advice, it often times beats around the bush, or it completely has nothing to do with the issue at hand. It got to the point where I will start off by acknowledging that my problems and feelings aren't valid. Why? Because it either forces the other side to acknowledge my issues or it throws them off their smug high horse.

As a Millennial man, I want say my generation has more misandrists.

I still stand by my belief that when Feminists use the term "Patriarchy," it's just another synonym for Men. Whenever they say patriarchy in their speeches, word salads, tirades, and comments, they are just implying that they are blaming everything on men. It's kind of like when some people in our side, the Male Advocacy side, use the term "Feminist" to be a default synonym for all women when that's not the case either.

Heck from what I understand a lot of other developed nations, especially those in the West, have been seeing a shift in political views move towards the Right as well. I feel like the Democrats here in the USA and the other Left Wing political parties of the other nations need to take respons…

FWIW at least he's gotten a lot of backlash in the last month or so now. It started after Charlie Kirk was assassinated and a lot of Right Wing media outlets and YouTubers pointed out various videos where he said that political violence was fine if the targets are essentially Nazis or Fascists.

In general, well Yes for the most part. I think was it has to do with is that Conservatives generally don't like spend money on taxes especially for welfare programs. A lot of programs that exist for the benefit of those who are disabled are considered forms of welfare. Those programs are funded by taxes and therefore Conservatives, along with Liberal/Progressives, pay more taxes.

Indifference, then, becomes the quiet rebellion. It’s the refusal to burn the village, or even to care that the village exists. In the first two emotional stages, society still holds the power. it can ridicule the sad man and condemn the angry man. But the indifferent man steps outside that entire emotional economy. He stops trying to earn validation, he stops performing empathy on demand, and he stops being emotionally manipulated by social guilt. His silence becomes a mirror reflecting society…

A part of me says yes that they care but another part of me says no.

Also I have checked in that place every once in a while and it seems like even when men have a safe space for mental health, somehow women still come in ready to invalidate Men's Issues or their problems. It's unfortunate that the Men Support Men subreddit went private. It's sad to say it but there really is no empathy for Men's Mental Health on this website.

I don't really even know because on one hand, you suddenly see people starting to care about men after years of pointing out the lack or services and the generally piss poor attitude towards men, only to get dismissed all the time. Then on the other hand, we have people complaining that women are getting shafted. It's all a zero sum game.

This has been the case for many things. Mental health services in general have seemed to now care about men and boys probably because of the 2024 election. Even colleges to some extent are now realizing that men make up a good portion of the student body and also need services available to them as well.

Sometimes I like to scroll through some of those discussions to find the massively downvoted comments. It usually is fascinating to me how Feminists are willing to go out of their way to throw around such slurs like "Incel" when people present evidence that Feminism is not for Men despite their claims.

I feel like the reason Feminists like insist that Men need to have their own movement is nonchalantly point out how they don't care about Men's Issues. They like to say they care about Men's Issues and that they're fighting for Men until you actually call them out on it. It's something they say but are never actually serious about. Honestly, they are having a shocked Pikachu Face over the Men's Rights Movement actually existing. They want to have a monopoly on the Gender Equality movement. They …

Trust me, I gave Feminists a challenge a few months ago.

I even told them to avoid the term misogyny too. I also told them to bring a situation where Feminists are actively fighting for the benefit of men and the detriment of women since they claim to be for men too and for equality. Most Feminists insisted that the challenge was too di…

That's something I never understood even when this discussion was brought up other subreddits like FeMRAdebates. Usually if ever discussed, you even say Male suicide rates are higher, the Feminist would say Women make more attempts and Men just use more success methods. Then it somehow always went into an argument that women always have it worse than men.

Fascinating read. As I was reading this, I feel Anime is one of the few medias that can potentially go against these tropes. Of course the difference is that Anime is from Japan, which is a country in the East therefore making it Eastern media. A lot of these tropes tend to apply to media from the West i.e. Europe and North America.

IMO this app just needs to keep getting hacked with more data breaches and that should probably shut down this app. Hopefully, it may teach a lesson that other places, pages, subreddits, and websites may realize they too can be a target and maybe decidr it's not worth it to gossip and possibly slander men.

I'll tell you what stopped men from having a gossip app, the app stores itself. Android, Apple, Microsoft and the likes would never allow it to exist. There would be too much pressure from Feminists and non Feminist Women to pull such an app if it existed.

Therefore they project that bad relationship and paint all Men negatively for it. So yes, a Woman being Fatherless is on par for her own Misandry.

This is one of those things that has bothered me for a long time. The fact that there are some Feminists, not all of them fortunately, want to insist that Misandry isn't real. I have seen them jump through many hoops and do the mental gymnastics to defend this stance. It's pretty annoying how they go through all of that because they refuse to acknowledge that Misandry could possibly actually be a real thing.

She likely might have been entertained by the men being bumbling idiots but didn't want to tell you she thought it was funny. She could have believed that all adult men were bumbling idiots and once again didn't want to tell you that. Or she likely knew that the media was being biased and knew that was "marketable" back then and now. It's kind of why beer…

Well, it's a well known truth that misandry will always be seen as justified according to Feminists. Feminists are the one who insist that abusing husbands is perfectly fine because he deserved it apparently. It's disgusting but the best we can do is keep showing the world that misandry is real and equally harmful as misogyny.

I'm not saying this because I am a straight man, but because it seems like straight women decided to be the very thing they were trying to avoid in essentially the heterosexual clubs, for a lack of a better nonoffensive term. They decided that to avoid straight men being bullies or getting sexually assaulted by straight men, they would feel safe at a gay club only to do that very thing to gay men.

These same women will then turn around and defend the existence and use of the term "misogyny." So my mindset is that if misandry can't be real then neither is misogyny and that it's all sexism. I can't see people losing attachment to these terms. Heck the Feminist Movement is heavily entrenched with the term "misogyny." Feminists, both the men and women …

That's still what concerns me. Right now the intentions are for male authors but what's not to say the company becomes another publisher that only caters to women because of whatever forces at play?

I like the idea but I fear the publisher may eventually cave in and publish female writers. It doesn't matter if every other publisher already does that, there are so many organizations that will be offended by this. A lot of the Feminist organizations and groups will cry sexism. This is all my fear.

Honestly, at this point, I feel like the best thing that could happen at this point is that younger male voters swing towards the center and into more moderate positions. I'm not saying this because I lean left of center on the political spectrum as a 36 year old Millennial, I'm saying this because I personally think we need more moderates in general. I have seen the extremes of both sides when they are in control and both extremes are not good in different ways. I'd rather we have people in the…

Oh boy, the fact that founder is also woman is also red flag here. Feminist women, from my experience, normally don't look out for the best interests of the men they claim to help.

I am rather hesitant to acknowledge the Feminism for Men Inc. organization. I only say that because you point out how they use the term "Patriarchy" and that's problematic. It seems like they probably use other problematic terms that we really don't like here such " Toxic Masculinity" or maybe using the term "Incel" as well. Maybe they are trying to help men but I fear they may approach Men's Issues the same way that Men's Lib approaches Men's Issues.

Patriarchy, toxic masculinity, and other such negative language brings in only the worst of men. I believe a number of gender equality activists that use language like that are aware that it's off-putting to men. They use it anyway to gaslight. To pretend an olive branch was offered. That way, through 'no fault of their own', most men just seem uninterested in equality. What's worse is that those activists insist that those terms were supposed to be helpful.

Well the pay gap might be a lost cause but the best way to counter it is point out the flaws of it.

The issue I have with Positive Masculinity or Healthy Masculinity is that it shares a lot of common traits associated with what's called Toxic Masculinity but used for good and not bad.

IMO I would give some of the blame to some of the Feminists.

Sure it is a question worth asking. But I personally don't have an answer. I don't really know why it changed that way. What likely happened is that it changed during a previous time period for a reason.

White wedding dresses weren't really a thing until Queen Victoria wore a white dress on her own wedding and therefore influenced many women afterward to …

Well yes it shows healthy masculinity but it's also showing what would have been historically acceptable back then in a time setting it's supposed to be in. The thing is that the culture of today doesn't quite view that kind of affection as socially acceptable unless Frodo and Samwise were a homosexual couple.

I do worry that establishing men’s clubs may turn into venues where men get together to complain about in an unhealthy (like they do in the manosphere). The manosphere doesn’t get that they are also “over correcting” and that’s not how you fix a broken system. I think establishing this groups through religious institutions helps because there’s underpinning of morals and values that prevents propagation of unhealthy ideas, but if you’re not already religious or looking for religion you’re not go…

This is my opinion so it might not reflect the opinions of others here.

This both sounds promising and also something to be weary of. While it's nice to see Democrats try to win back male voters, I also feel like this is only going to last for a few election cycles.

Honestly, sometimes it's better to not make attempts at standing up for boys and men especially in the Feminist spaces. I sometimes think it's better to see them come here and try to make their arguments and see how well they hold up. Some of them try and mock us but some of them actually do learn something in the process and adjust their mindsets accordingly.…

It will stop when you acknowledge that your masculinity is both fragile and toxic of course/s Sarcasm aside, I wonder as well. I am still arguing with redditors to day when they walk into a discussion related to men's issues and not having a clue on the discussion at hand. Then they go into the typical Feminist talking points and then go into the namecalling and stuff.

I just want to say, your comment and your username combined makes this comment even better. I'm honestly waiting to see of those same women will say that all of that was just theatrics and that they didn't mean any of that.

While it's kind of nice to see the Feminist movement acknowledge the existence of Misandry, this is kind of late on them to do so. They're only publishing these articles as a means of saving face in my opinion. These articles are the result of Trump winning the US Presidential election by a landslide and by the fact that practically every developed nation is shifting rightward on the political spectrum. This even includes traditionally left wing nations like Canada and France. So I have some ske…

This reminds me of that story about the women's job fair that was available to trans women and nonbinary people. So a lot of men signed up claiming to be trans or nonbinary and were outcompeting the women for job opportunities.

I read the whole article but I will say there is one thing that I got out of it that I really would like to comment on. Yes it was this "Pop Feminism" that many of us saw on social media especially around and after 2017 when Trump served his first term as President. That was also when a lot of Universities ramped up their academic requirements to push more Sociology or Gender Studies courses in order to graduate even with degrees in all the STEM fields.

I feel the problem with selling men's issues as "everyone's" issues is that it'll one again benefit women only. This could very well leave men out in the cold once again. I am all for addressing mental health, career concerns, violence, and incarceration for both men and women but we need to make sure men and women are both benefiting from that.

The thing that baffles me about all of this is that there already is a positive type of masculinity. For centuries there have been shining examples of positively masculine men told in various stories or even in religious text such the Bible and the Quran.

For whatever reason, it's viewed as a zero sum game to even consider putting some care into issues that men are dealing with.

Once you ask them about a issue like Misandry then they immediately realize that they aren't dealing with Andrew tatestans and chime out because most women believe misandry (The hate, dislike or contempt of men.) is just a bunch of frustrated women venting about problems they have with the opposite gender. (Yes Mary. wanting all men to be "Castrated" at birth is a valid way to vent!) This is honestly not just unique to the Feminist spaces. Perhaps because of how much overlap there is, this is al…

In a lot of the online nerd spaces, they were taken over by Feminists and the "Woke SJW" crowd since there isn't really a better term. What's worse is that IRL those online spaces took over IRL events such as the conventions too. It became really hard to have different opinions that didn't align with the group think of those spaces.

Yes 2019 was the last year and then the pandemic halted the one for 2020 which ultimately never happened because the leadership and the organization had run out of money by 2021.

While I agree, I just have a feeling we're in for another 2017-2021 type of reaction to Trump again. Hollywood has been making girl boss after girl boss movies that were flops in the box office all the while trying to paint men in a negative light. Academia and Intelligentsia has pushed the narrative of Toxic Masculinity and Patriarchy Theory for a long while only to ignore that a lot of young men and even some older men are struggling to find their place in this modern world. Feminism has domin…

I agree but if Kamala/Walz do win this election, nothing will likely change. Feminists will feel empowered to finally have a Woman as President and will use that to push more radical Feminist agendas. Hollywood will continue to emasculate men and continue to make the villains to be white men with "toxic masculinity." The Universities will still see a drop in Male students and continue to push for more programs to benefit Women and they'll continue to bring in guest speakers that will only talk a…

The US has a 2 party system. Although we have other party options here, they very seldom ever win offices. The Republicans and tbe Democrats are the 2 major parties that get the votes and all the 3rd parties are often candidates that generally take votes away from those 2. That's just how our country developed. We sometimes have 3rd party members in the Legislature or sitting in as Governors at the state level. But generally speaking it's pretty much the Republicans or the Democrats. The Republi…

The funny thing is that several years ago maybe even a few decades ago, The View was once considered one of the more intelligent shows that you could watch in the USA. Now as you can imagine, that was quite a big deal since our nation does pump out a lot of brain rotting TV shows on the regular. Now the View used to be a lot more diverse of a show. It wasn't just a diversity of women and ethnicities and races, it also was a diversity of thought. They used to have legit conservatives on the show.…

Honestly, here in the USA, I think the View needs to be canceled. I understand this format was popular at one time but whenever I see these kinds of shows I don't think they are having productive conversations. A lot of times the discourse is heavily moderated with a certain bias being reinforced. I see that with that with The View and I imagine this UK version isn't that much different.

The comments in that thread really have me shaking my head.

In my opinion, the best way to sum up why Feminism is not for Men or doesn't help men is because the Feminist movement is always looking for a new issue that affects or harms women. I was told by a Male Feminist, that reason I should be a Feminist is because when women finally have all their issues settled and solved that they will finally help men's issues. Well let's see here, in the first wave, they got women the right to vote which was their ultimate goal. They got that settled in 1920 in th…

What they are unaware is that we allow criticisms of the Feminist movement when it negatively affects men for the benefit of women.

I can imagine the Feminists trying to downplay this one. They'll likely jump to the same excuses like saying the boy actually enjoyed it or that the boy wasn't really harmed at all. Or they'll try to jump to other situations where a male teacher did far worse to a female student because whataboutism is classic strategy on their side too.

The description of that Reddit says "Celebrating male quirkiness.

Then it's time to give All women that lecture. Maybe it's time to lecture women about why hating men is dangerous, bad, and toxic. Until that conversation can be had, I doubt anything will change. Also contrary to popular belief but men do hold men accountable for bad actions all the time. Not for all of them but for a lot more of then then you'll believe. The problem is that they'll go unnoticed. When you see Male police officers arresting men, who are guilty of crime, that is an example of a m…

I just don’t trust strangers, especially ones who have a physical disadvantage over me, which is usually men. So you're saying that you don't trust people, who are usually men, that you have an advantage over? So you don't trust those men that you can beat up easily? That is all kinds of messed up.

Stop taking it as a personal attack, because it’s not, it’s just their opinion on a hypothetical situation. Yea I doubt that.

NGL, I wonder if women say and do the stuff they accuse us men of doing when they are together.

Yes and once again the Localizers are responding to their valid criticism by dismissing the criticizers as incels who are upset they can't get laid and can't accept that women are funny. When in fact someone's sexuality should have nothing to do with that criticism and yet it's another ad hominem attack just when they want to say our egos and masculinity are too fragile. But maybe these people have too many insecurities of their own that they're projecting onto us perhaps.

And that's where the issue is. Criticism to poorly written and poorly executed All Female Cast movies shouldn't be about sexism or misogyny and yet it's a default response in addition to calling the said critics a bunch of Incels.

It may have been but I just know that when there were men who were more effeminate or emasculated in the 1980's, the early Men's Rights groups called that Toxic Masculinity and that's where the origin of the term began.

I mostly agree. However the term actually has history with Men's Rights groups in the 1980's. The term was defined back the 1980's as masculinity that serves to emasculate men was in fact Toxic Masculinity. For an example, making a guy become a huge wimp was considered Toxic Masculinity in the 1980's. It was until Academic Feminists hijacked the term in the 2000's and 2010's that we got the current definition or current identity of what it is now.

In my opinion, I think many Feminists and especially Female Feminists need to truly understand that issue of suicide and it predominant affects men more than women. They are quick to dismiss the rates of suicide in men versus women by simply going to same argument of "Well yea but women make more attempts at suicide" as if that's a valid counter-argument. I actually recall a Feminist said that once in the r/antifeminists reddit and she got her ass chewed to a point where she kind of implied she …

It may not be just Feminism but the Left Wing has a strong influence from that movement. Because of that, it's no wonder the young boys are shifting towards the right wing.

I recall in 2019, around the same time when Gillette released their infamous ad that attack men, the American Psychological Association or APA released their guidelines on men.
