Why I love and respect women but I will never call myself a feminist.

I agree. It's not about equality at all, and most "feminists" usually aren't good people.

It's about getting special advantages for women, general tribal man-hating, and just expelling their inner shit and getting satisfaction, being feared and getting a profile by trying to dominate and abuse people online. For someone who wants to be abusive, but don't have the strength to be violent in reality, they'll just do that on the internet instead - and then people will fear them. Big sadist egos who want power, or hateful people without boundaries who want to expel their toxicity.

Which is why "equality" will never end it - because their inner tendency to be shitty and abuse people for power and satisfaction won't go away no matter how much equality is achieved.

We should try our best to make a good society for men and women, and I was raised in the same way as you. But we should do that independently of feminists and not give them any institutional power (unfortunately, they have that a lot in the West).

The feminists in Russia are just angry dejected women or immigrants from places with crazy feminist ideologies.

I totally agree, это отличи as you might say. A big problem in the states with feminism that I’ve noticed is that feminists are “fighting for equal rights”, and I know other countries are different but in the US, women already have equal rights. There’s nothing they can’t do that men can, except maybe be drafted into the military. Feminists here purely exist to cause more sexism and divide.

Listen to Jonathan Haidts lectures about why questioning obviously false claims, such as the wage gap (or specifically, the assumption that direct discrimination is driving the earnings gap), is so difficult. What he says applies much more broadly than that. So I will leave it at that, also because we have discussed these issues at length in other threads.

As someone who knows Russia well, however, this strikes me. On the one hand, you have a president whose macho posturing borders on the ridiculous to Western eyes (although he is perfectly in line with a succession of Russian strongmen - and one strongwoman who was actually German). On the other, visiting Russia, I see some of the most vocal, assertive, and powerful women in the world who have no problem dealing with sexism. At all levels, starting with the famous babushkas inspecting peoples socks at the Marinsky to spot foreigners trying to get in at the much lower ticket price for locals swooping down on suspects with an authoritative molodoy chelovek. Russia also has one of the highest enrollement rates in STEM in the world - even in, say, nuclear physics, whereas in hyperprogressive Sweden fields like that struggle with gender imbalances exceeding 90% (and, I presume, without the help of any quotas).

And, of course, women in Russia used to live over 15 years longer than men in the 90s, one of the largest gender gaps in the world.

Why is that?

They claim to fight for equality, but only make it equal where it benefits them. They claim to fight for everyone, but when have I seen anything about males in the feminism sub? Never. Modern feminism is the thing it claims to fight. Sexism. They only bring men down and don't try to raise themselves up.

You respect women but the feeling is not mutual

"I love and respect women"

All of them? Just because they are women? Do they not have to earn respect the way men do? It is sad that so many men find it necessary to prefix comments against feminism with this sort of irrelevant statement as if they are scared of being labelled misogynists. Paradoxically, the weakness implied by this prefix will be taken as an indication to attack you rather than being an effective defence.
