Feminists and women who fight for justice are two different kinds of people

Agree in principle. The biggest issue is that Feminism, as a term, encompasses far too many groups with contradictory aims so their combined hypocrisy makes all of them look bad.

A lot of feminists aren't the victim card playing type, and really do just use the 'equal rights' definition of feminism, and I feel like a large portion of the general public sees it with that definition except when prefixed (eg, trans-exclusionary, radical, etc), which makes too many people think anti-feminism means anti-woman or anti-equality

The other groups hide in the shade of them, spewing hate and retreating under the equality definition to deflect any criticism.

Its the biggest problem with feminism as a movement: hypocrisy of composition. Until those contradictions can be sorted out, I will continue to fight for mens rights, womens rights and shit all the way over feminism

The Women's Rights Movement was an extremely important and progressive movement that shaped our world for the better. When feminism took over the movement it stopped being about equality and how profitable it could make them to hate the other sex. Source: Erin Pizzey.

There are a lot of well meaning people who identify themselves as feminists, but don't seem to know the underlying history or intent of the movement. I really wish an equal rights amendment could get passed because that is a large step in the right direction for Men's and Women's Rights.

Feminism has never been about fighting for justice for all. That's just the bullshit they tell people that would otherwise be like nope, so they join their cause. From the getgo, it was about securing privileges that men got, without paying the same price. Look at voting, they got the vote, but didn't have to do anything to get it, like a majority of men did with conscription. It was no strings attached for women.

Gather round kids, time for an educational talk of epic proportions.

Ok, ready?

Women that hate men, that fight for female dominance are called feminist. Women who fight for justice, equality, are called MRAs

Good talk.

Agreed,

Even tho I say feminist and radical feminist.

But yeah, most women can get behind the idea of true equality instead of playing the victim.
