Why I'm anti-feminist, I'm motivated by the following: -Equal rights for men -Equal parenting rights -Undo all the damage feminism caused to modern society. -Raise strong masculine men -Raise a society where men and women can finally love each other without gender wars creating divisions.

Something something the patriarchy.

It's a bit much to think that I and others are all meeting in private to invent ways to oppress or marginalize her. I mean, I don't care if she lives or dies. So, why would I bother trying to keep her down?

The point of anti-feminism is to debunk and take down feminist ideas that are bad outside of what they believe as the "dictionary definition"

Feminists believe in the patriarchy.. As an anti-feminist that is one of the top things that needs to be debunked. that falls, so does feminism. There isn't one feminism that doesn't believe in patriarchy. It's a bit slimy because the definition becomes unfalsifiable depending on the feminist you talk to.

Feminists have the mindset because the past was bad you must support what people identified at the time "feminism" was created. For example. If feminism gave women the vote, you must now always be a feminist no matter what because women couldn't vote in the past. Debunking the idea that you have to identify as something because that thing used to be good (whether true or false) shows how narrow minded most feminists are.

Last, The idea that you feminism is the arbiter of equality and that feminism owns what equality means and that if you are against anything from feminist theory then you are against equality. The idea that the dictionary is the bible of what feminism means and screw the actions of the movement because "the dictionary says..."

Destroy these 3 tenants and the movement will whither. Not go away completely, but it will definitely drop in numbers.

-- Persistent denial that misandry even exists (which is misandry in and of itself), or some feminists accept that it exists but downplay it or claim that its necessary in this day and age for women to hate men (they even write books about why women should hate men).

-- Issues facing men are usually ignored, and when they're not, they're reframed as oppression of women. Additionally, "women's issues" always take priority over issues facing men today.

-- Double standards are everywhere and when they're pointed out, feminists often try to rationalize and justify them rather than recognize that they're wrong and unfair.

-- BONUS: When attempting to discuss feminism and men's issues, it's quite rare to find a feminist actually who is willing to engage in good faith. Whenever they don't have an argument or don't know how to address your points, they usually resort to ad hominem attacks.

On the surface level:

Some are incapable of listening and analyzing what is being said to them.
Intolerance to different opinions
Extremists, it’s your way or the highway.

Feminism has it’s good part but like every ideology certain behaviors and traits need to be worked on

abusing men
normalising and encouraging degeneration of culture such as encouraging poly life styles, cheating, degrading quality of art, music, films etc…
dumbing down the humanities/teaching bad intellectual habits at universities

I don't know why the person that said "I am a feminist and don't believe in Patriarchy" deleted their comment, but the simple response to that would be "Great, now find a platform feminist that agrees with you!".

I need an article that is endorsed by the majority of the movement. From Feministing or Everyday Feminism or Jezebel.. etc etc.

Look this is like saying "I am a Christian but don't believe in Christ". Good luck on getting a following on that. So your "Now what?" comment is "Now show me how many articles that exist supporting your rejection of Patriarchy as a feminist" otherwise you are a unique snowflake that that only "you and the feminists you know" believe in.
