Some validation for a change

LOL we are the ones turning away from equality? More like we are the ones turning away from a system that treats us as irrelevant. We are turning away from their push for superiority

I enjoy seeing someone on our side for once, and not being patronizing in their views or as though men are mustache twirling villains waiting to oppress any woman who comes too close. I think we are making changes, and faster than I expected tbh. Public opinion is slowly changing, and misandry is starting to be called out in social situations. Systematically, there is still work to be done

Relating to the article, I didn't think the author did this, but I often see men painted as the weakest link of society, keeping us back from a utopian society. I see people say how men don't want to change gender norms and want to stay oppressed in a "patriarchy", men just want to subjugate and abuse women, like what the actual hell? You despise men so, think of them as apes, and expect men to not be defensive or have an issue with this?

I think we're reaching a breaking point here, where feminist arguments are being argued against and arguments like this pop up. We're making changes though. And it's great to see

According to these questions, I am a male feminist. Because I believe that there's nothing wrong with mothers entering the workplace (have you seen what housing and rent costs these days? How many families can realistically afford to live on one income?), nothing wrong with putting children in pre-school, nothing wrong with men not being the primary breadwinner, I don't have a problem with women entering politics. Employment equity and inclusion quotas for women though? That's where I draw the line. If women want to enter their soft girl era and be homemakers, employers need to start paying more so that we can actually be breadwinners and/or the government needs to do something about the housing and rent bubble. Otherwise I'm in my soft boy era. Drizzle, drizzle. This is the world you asked for.

It's not that I'm opposed to gender equality. It's that we live in a misandrist society where women are human beings and men are human doings. Our society is biased against men. The family courts, the courts, the government. Men frequently sell each other out for pussy. Whereas women are more socially tight knit.

Also I am 39. An early millennial. Allegedly we're more feminist than men under 30 so thought I'd point that out.

Feminism stopped being for gender equality when they started comparing women to only the most successful and powerful men, while blatantly ignoring if not belittling the men who will never reach that level. Neoliberal mcfeminism is easily the worst era of feminism

Glad this article was made it compiles so much of what I and other have said with the proper argumentation in one place.

I hope to see the end of feminists in position of power pushing their fucked up agenda soon.

I am at least glad that this article doesn’t speak of men like the usual, as creatures that only hurt women and rape and murder and cause all the worlds problems.

Tho this seems more like this article is based off of if young men are for gender equality (pro women) or not based off of reworked questions such as if men would vote for a random woman going for president or not, which most young men, me included agree this is a good thing that should be supported. Good. Tho it seems that men that agreed or were pro women, are labeled as feminist for being supportive of women according to this article, but idk if this article really knows why many young men like me aren’t in favor of feminism and refuse to call ourselves that even if we think stuff like supporting women entering the workforce or being indipendent is good.

The thing is that feminism itself tend to be against true gender equality, as in against men’s rights or against supporting men’s issues like rape or suicide, or will even protest against abuse shelters for men despite the population of female abuse shelters and only wishes to support women.

Note that gender equality doesn’t have to mean pro-women, and strictly supporting women only. Other men want to support their own issues as well, but feminism bashes them for doing so, or will bash those men anyways just for being born male. Supporting men in general isn’t seen as gender equality by society.
