-1	Are there any Men's Rights Activists who are also feminists? > Believing in "equality" would mean that women must suffer the same terrible fates that men do. I think there is lots of scope to advance equality: e.g. conscription should apply to women too (and in many countries it already does). Likewise, pension ages; parental rights; and so on. Many jobs dominated by men can and should be made safer. Equality is an argument for lifting people up, not pulling others down. There are various intrinsic differences between men and women that should be recognis…	/r/MensRights	22/07/25 10:55 AM
-2	Are there any Men's Rights Activists who are also feminists? >Are there any Men's Rights Activists who are also feminists? Yes. Me for example. Feminism is fundamentally about equality. Much of the constructive criticism of the institutionalised injustices towards men on this sub and related parts of the 'manosphere' is animated by that same principle that feminism pioneered. A lot of it also makes use of specific concepts originally developed within the feminist movement to identify and challenge particular kinds of injustice, such as normative stereotyp…	/r/MensRights	22/07/25 05:58 AM
51	Artificial Wombs: A Technological (Partial) Solution To Gender Injustice and Global Fertility Collapse? The gender injustice is women's effective veto over the right to reproduction. With this technology men could decide for themselves whether to become parents	/r/MensRights	11/12/24 03:23 PM
37	The Feminist Case For Men’s Rights Argues that our society’s reliance on narrow, arbitrary, and dysfunctional gender roles and rules reduces the freedom and flourishing of both women and men.

We are all victims of a system that has to change.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	14/08/22 12:31 PM
12	Putting Women In Charge Is Not The Way To Make The World Better It is common to see claims that if only women were in charge things would be much better and nicer, for example that people would be much happier at work, inequality would fall, climate change would be solved. This essay by a philosopher analyses the logical failings in these claims and suggests refocusing on the problem of power as a problem of institutions not gender.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	01/08/22 10:08 AM

1	Why Women Still Can’t Have It All. "Have feminists sold young women a fiction?" For a feminist, she's awfully sexist: I do not believe fathers love their children any less than mothers do, but men do seem more likely to choose their job at a cost to their family, while women seem more likely to choose their family at a cost to their job.	/r/MensRights	11/07/12 11:27 AM
