I can tell you how we've made changes lately, but our new members should really tell us about it instead. This is what I like to call a positivity check-in. We're not generally the happiest bunch, but it's not because we're naturally grouchy. This is a forum of people who are seriously lacking rights that others enjoy, are legally and socially discriminated against, and are demonized by a more privileged population. Worse yet, we're the few willing or aware enough to undertake the task of making waves to change this state of affairs and the world thinks we're just a bunch of haters. Of course we're upset! But we should try every now and then to focus on where things are changing for us. Our progress is real, and it's just now kicking off.
I've been seeing it all over the place on here. A post with a title or some other mention of someone being new to the movement and understanding why it is here. It's heartening. You even see it out there on common social media, among women and even a group called feminists united, people are recognizing over two-thousand years' mistreatment of men and its culmination in recent times.
To all the new advocates, new voices who would speak for men when men are told to "man up" instead of solve the way society demands so much of them, to all of you compassionate men and women; thank you!
This movement has been around for almost a century in the US and had tried to grow up alongside feminism. But unfortunately, gynocentrism had forced it down. Now it looks as if this could be the generation that understands equality and cares for ALL people.
Be the change you want to see in the world, that world will be a more comfortable and fair place for all. Comment below how you've seen the world change or made a change in it.
