What beliefs do they have to abandon which keep them from it, or how long does it take to go from "they're a hate group" to "they have some valid points, but they're toxic" to "I don't personally identify" to "sure", if all these transitions are even possible?

Also, what approaches did you notice works best? I'm assuming that them bringing up a women's issue and you citing back statistics on how it affects men as your first reaction won't help.

This question is for women too, the experience and hurdles might be... will definitely be different, and it could help the men who do it to know how it helps if they already have a or some women on their side.

It will also probably be different depending on the attitude towards men's rights where you live, and if it's opposed, the reasons why would be different, I'd expect Swedish and Iranian opposition to men's rights to be different for example.
