I went on r/ask feminists asking about if they would be friends with an mra,

Honestly given reddits climate and the fact that it was a reddit condoned hate group, what honestly did you expect? Discourse?

Do they actually answer MRA's questions? I have some questions, but I think it would be more informative to ask MRAs to speculate than it would be to ask feminists.

Were you even a little surprised?

Jesus, one of them actually said "I would be afraid he will hit me and abuse me." The people on that subreddit are deranged.

Also, that is typical behavior from that moderator. Beg the question, make wild accusations about the MRM, and then when you say you disagree, "yOu CaN sTuMp fOr mRaS sOmEwHeRe eLsE." They have exactly zero curious cells in their body. That subreddit just exists to railroad people and circlejerk.

I mean, ever wonder why it’s called “having a man cave”? Women have to dominate everything and men only allowed a small corner

It kind of sucks that they have a policy of literally removing all comments by anyone who isn't a confirmed feminist unless your comment is responding to another comment. Like, you have to pass their check for whether you're a feminist or not. It's a very stupid rule that they have. I imagine with a rule like that, they're very hive minded since you have to be approved by a mod who wants you to think a certain way.

Well, this sub is a forum, not a MRM organization. I’m not sure where exactly they expect us to go or be doing. Clearly, MRAs are generally not welcome in most the feminist subs, most of those censoring any facts that don’t reflect positively on feminism.

I used to participate a big in their sub, but a moderate made it clear facts I presented were not welcome so it’s hypocritical of them to criticize us for staying here. I do participate in the FeMra sub which allows all views but feminists shy away preferring their echo chambers of misinformation.

Reaching across the aisle is asking to get bit, some people embrace and pick at their wounds to keep them from healing. They want to hate you.

What did you expect?

Enter the lions den, expect to be skinned alive and shredded.

Don't bother.

actually you got downvoted after both of you lashed at them with ad hominem arguments... the first responses were doubtful but positive...

where is our respectful disagreement stance?

where is our dismantling of weak arguments and narratives with credible sources?

some members "not talking about you directly" in this sub are a disgrace for the mens rights movement and its goals but get called out much too little... "same applies obviously to some feminists in their sub"

ItsSUCHaLongStory · 2023-05-31T22:01:33+00:00

Maybe because MRA evolved in direct response and antagonism to women demanding human rights? And because your participation there was in bad faith?
