Feminists should be split into 2 categories

There are a zillion ways to split them up and categorize them, depending on what point the person is trying to make who is doing the splitting.

I don't think i have seen your split before - but i have heard people say things like 'feminism has gone too far in the west, but is needed in the 3rd world' - which kind of splits feminism itself in a way that agrees with yours, but not feminists. i do not think i have heard any feminists make this kind of distinction.

Feminists will often split their movement by waves, 1st wave, second wave and so on, some will identify themselves as being 'not like all the other girls' by claiming to be 'equity feminists' or 'radical feminists' or 'intersectional feminists'

some types i hear mentioned a lot are

'feminists' just the garden variety, hates all men, believes 'female' is a disability
'dictionary feminists' people who believe that 'feminism means equality of the sexes' depending on who you ask these are either 'useful idiots' or just misguided egalitarians
'bedroom feminists' these are aspiring feminist media figures, making vlogs in their bedrooms
'male feminists' these are 'sneaky fuckers' in the technical sense, they're like 'snakes in wolves clothing' who are just in it for the chicks.

Feminism is a cult based on a false conspiracy theory about men. That's all it boils down to, no matter where it is. Even in third worlds, where women at the bottom of the pyramid are treated like shit, there are men even farther down at the base of the pyramid ignored like they don't exist.

So you think that feminists in the third world are better? Why? Which third world country are you thinking about?

We get a lot of posts on India now --the biggest third world country there is-- and it's government is incredibly anti-male. We don't hear much from Brazil (because it tends to group with Spanish speaking countries) but as I understand it they have that same system of female police forces too (ie the cops aren't female but what they do is fuck men over all the time and help women). Are you maybe thinking of Muslim countries like Afghanistan? My understanding of the Taliban is that they are --as is usual the case with far right tribalist groups-- far more harsh on men than on women despite the propaganda by Western media. I did a lot of research on it before 9-11 but I doubt it's changed. One example that's not even something the Taliban did was the social practice of making young teen boys be forced into prostitution.

In general third world countries often have more female than male students in tertiary education. That's true in Iran for example.

So exactly which third world country do you mean?

Men's rights is not inherently anti-feminism.
I've never heard the terms first-world feminism and third-world feminism. I think you meant first-wave, second-wave, and third-wave feminism which has nothing to do with the country in which they reside.
