When I was 18, I remember think "in 10 years, we'll finally be over all of this." I'm 31 now and of course realize just how difficult empathy gap is to overcome.

That said, we *will* win. As misandry gets more and more prevalent and extreme, people will eventually and inevitably be shoved to our side. What's so frustrating is that these people - the same who hate us now- will think they are the first "actual" men's rights activists, for noticing what we already noticed decades ago.

The day will come when "progressive" looks like female university students talking amongst themselves about how badly their male classmates are treated. But that day is years away- and how bad will it have to get first?

I think the first person to be legitimately 'cool' in the mainstream for/despite being an MRA is alive today, but under the age of 14. And when I'm 50 I'll be able to show people "see how right I was 30 years ago when I was young and attractive but considered evil so was just disregarded". But no one will listen or care.

Sometimes I worry that I'm the end, we won't have mattered at all. I never truly got to live my one and only life.
