"Mens Rights Activists miss the point"

"While some men do experience rape and sexual assault, and that fact should in no way be invalidated, women are far more likely to be victims of sex crimes."

Typical feminist lie. Stopped reading there. For the truth, see the CDC report on intimate partner violence:

I was unaware that a men’s rights movement existed. As a women’s studies minor, I find such a movement to be odd. I’ve never heard of a men’s studies class,

Uhhh yes because feminism has always had womens studies since universities were founded and we have always had computer science majors OH WAIT!

but the need for an organized movement with the sole purpose of advancing the state of men continues to baffle me.

You do realize people said the same thing about feminists originally right?

Unfortunately, that isn’t the way things work. Someone is raping all of these women, and most of the rapists are men.

Blacks statistically commit more crime but you don't see campaigns or advertisement telling them to stop stealing now do you? Why? Because it is fucking stupid and racist to do so!

Yes, it may be difficult to hear, but it’s much harder to experience it in real life. Education on the prevalence and dangers of sexual assault is meant to prevent students—male or female—from perpetrating this violence or being victimized by it. Yes, men may be presented as “potentially dangerous,” but that’s because they are statistically more likely to actually be dangerous.

See above.

We all have the potential to be dangerous without proper education.

You do realize this is the same argument made by religious people who can not understand atheists do not have a desire to break the law because they don't use the bible as a guiding moral compass right? What the bible is the only thing stopping you from committing crime?

I sincerely hope Groth is just an anomalous idiot. I want to believe the men’s rights movement has purer motives than just ignoring conversations that make men “feel unwelcome.”

You have had education changed to make you feel more welcome, workplaces changed to make you feel more welcome, mens only spaces destroyed to make you feel more welcome, female only scholarships made for you to feel more welcome, special workshops, and lastly female only spaces to make you feel more welcome. Go fuck yourself and your hypoagency lady.

Competing movements create the misconception that feminism only stands for the advancement of women, ignoring its true goal of the equality of genders.

Then why does it ignore mens issues or outright works against them?

TLDR fuck you, learn your history and don't talk about a subject you are woefully uneducated about. You don't hear me talking about how to take a car apart, why? Because I am not a mechanic.

As a women’s studies minor

The "point" is that the one in four statistic is bogus. So is one in three, one in five, and all the other numbers that feminists pull out of their asses in order to slander men.

Madison Hopkins grapples with her massive ignorance. Good start; keep trying, Madison.

According to a 2012 study by Boston College, 41 percent of students believe that if a woman is raped while intoxicated, she is to blame.

The responsible woman should avoid getting intoxicated, to avoid her partner in drink being stigmatized as a "rapist."
