This belief is long and seems very chauvinistic, but please hear me out.
If you look at the history of the human race, you'll find that the inferior group always finds a way to persecute the superior group and try to usurp them. It's natural human instinct.

Why do democratic governments like Russia and Britain choose to harm innocent and peaceful protesters? Because governments are scared of their people and fear for riots and revolutions, as there are more citizens than there are politicians.
Women live longer than men, are more intelligent intellectually and emotionally, get better grades in school, and have more power socially and sexually. (These are simple facts a few Google searches can confirm) The only advantage a man has over a woman, if you disregard society, is being physically stronger, not having periods, and not having a menopause. This makes men disposable to be mauled at by a tiger or nowadays fight in the war. This is also why women naturally make better scientists than men.
In the past, men could use their strength as leverage over women as women were required to pair up with men in order to eat the food they hunted, but when farming got invented and shops started selling food, the need for men to be strong declined, so as the only advantage a man then had over a woman is strength, they then used force to prohibit women from working, so that men wouldn't have to compete with women in the dating market. If women could go to work to provide for themselves, they wouldn't be contractually obliged to pair up with men for resources (and survival). They would then be able to mate with who they please, to the horror of many men being single because of it.
As women are only fertile for a limited period of their life and have the "choice" role in relationships (they can pick from a selection of suitors whereas men can't with most of them being ignored on dating sites) , this made women more superior to men, whereas the strength advantage that men had in the past wasn't as much as an advantage anymore due to the proliferation of farms and food shops. Men could only keep their past level of power of the hunting days through force (oppression) and not by letting the free market (unregulated) decide.
To break it down, the only advantage men naturally have over women which was good at an evolutionary and not envirionmental standpoint after the invention of farming was not having periods, as strength doesn't matter in our modern society any more.
For all these reasons, women are naturally born superior to men in many key ways, which is exactly why men have persecuted (and usurped) them.
You can look at it from an extreme example in Islamic countries where women are forced to wear a burka to hide their sexuality because the prophet Mohammed didn't want other men looking at his women stealing them away from him. (It has nothing to do with protecting a woman's modesty.) How this relates to women being superior than men is that an attractive man walking down the street is just an attractive man but an attractive woman walking down the street is a commodity who can trade-up or upgrade her partner from the selection of willing men who walk down the street. Women have a sexual leverage over men that men don't have over women, which is why they get persecuted.
I say persecuted instead of oppressed because democratic countries tend to diminish oppression in favour of equal rights unlike dictatorships.
Another example is women who reveal themselves to be female, getting lewd comments from their male peers. Because the men don't have a chance to socialise with women in their day to day lives, whereas women do have the chance to socialise with the opposite sex, the misogyny happens where men vent their frustrations.
Another example is female genital mutilation, by stopping women from enjoying sex, they have no reason to cheat or have sex unless their man wants it, which is why it's also paired with child marriages, to ration women among men.
Another example is arranged marriage. By reducing the extent of choice a woman has in dating, women are thus rationed out among more men than if it had never existed, as many women stay "single" after using dating sites.
Basically all persecution is down to someone who feels they're inferior, consciously or not, targeting the superior group.
It's not just women, we also persecute the rich. Because men are polygamous and women are hypergamous (attracted by status), rich men will have multiple women. To stop this, prostitution is illegal in certain places so men can't pay them to have sex and they have to pay alimony if they get married and divorced. Without alimony and prostitution bans, rich men would have lots more women.
We also persecute the rich by making child support proportional to a man's income. A millionaire can't have 20 kids without sacrificing his income, but a poor person can have 20 kids and get free money from the government for each kid he pops out. Lil Wayne has kids to 3 different women, and I'm sure the government has forced him to pay more money for his children than my mum has for having 6 kids without having a job.
The same with banning prostitution, ensuring that the cost of a woman's body is kept lower than it's actually worth, helped artificially with the government endorsed option of marriage that ensures that married men get sex in times they otherwise wouldn't be able to afford prostitution. Does it make sense that the powerful, presumably men, would want the price of a woman's body to go down?
It also applies to women being discouraged to work in technology, as men feel intimidated by more intelligent women (as women are biologically more intelligent) from taking their role and last shred of superiority left over women.
If you think about male privilege, you'll find that it's not as much a privilege as people think it is. Norah Vincent is a man who dressed up as a man for 6 months to blend in with them, got sectioned because of her experience, and she said after the experience that she was never more thankful for being a woman. Below I've summed up the main points of male privilege I hear and read from feminists.
- No sexual harassment (Men, in general, would not mind mild sexual harassment.)
- Prepositions for sex from strangers (Men would not mind this. Turn many of them down, yes, but not find them terrifying) -Not being physically objectified (Men wouldn't mind this, and women consensually choose to be objectified.)
- More likely to enter leadership/powerful roles. (As most men aren't in those roles, I consider it to be statistically insignificant.)
- Gender stereotyping (Men and women are equally stereotyped.)
- Discouragement of entering technical roles (This is a minor thing, and shouldn't deter any woman who is dedicated. Look at Why don't more women go to hackathons? how the answers attribute their not attending due to sexism and gendered roles and typecasting. If you reversed the genders and it was the men on the receiving end of that, you would find that it would NOT deter men from attending, as men would love to be in a female environment.)
- Death, rape threats and stalking (Men get this too.) More likely to enter positions of power (The chances of me entering a powerful position is so slim, I've had to start and fund my own business.)
- The pay gap (The pay gap of women getting 25% less than men is a myth because it is caused by lifestyle choices and not because of sexism.)
Do you actually believe that everything you've achieved in your life, would be easier if you were a man? Ask Western women what they've achieved in their life, and not much of it had their gender help or dispel them from doing so. Being a man hasn't made anything I've ever achieved any easier to do. Maybe you think that being a man makes it more likely to be employed and fill positions of power, as a feminist told me. I know two things that would be easier if I was a woman.
Basically all persecution and oppression is based on the inferior aggressor feeling insecure over the superior group. Maybe you might want to think about that the next time you think about women.
77% of suicides are done by men, and men are much more likely to have mental health issues. There's a reason that is, and feminists aren't as hard done by as men, judging by that statistic.
Also, I am a 27-year-old man, so this is not a bitter unfuckable feminazi looking to flaunt her talents. I am interested in seeing how people can counter these scientifically and historically corroborated points.
Thank you for your time.
