Whenever I hear stuff like this, it makes me incredibly sad. I'm genuinely floored that more people don't realize what's happening. Society itself is dehumanizing men. And I'm afraid for the future considering 50% of the population is being taught that they're dangerous & treated harsher than girls for no discernible reason other than their gender. I worry about our future men being born into a world where being male itself is offensive. Maybe it's different in other parts of the country, but California has lost its god damned mind. Apparently, so has most of Europe & Australia.

I really want to know who or what on god's green earth is behind the feminist movement. Because it certainly doesn't have women's best interest at heart. I mean, feminism basically tells us that our feeble female brains are incapable of consent, we need to be coddled and cared for, and my personal favorite that if some man tells us anything we don't 100% agree with his words are harming us & we need "safe spaces" to overcome such an atrocious violation. Give me a break. How does any woman seriously buy into this?

Whatever happened to the feminism that encouraged independence & resilience? Wasn't the entire point to say "hey we can be doctors and lawyers too? And that we're not too stupid/inferior/whatever to vote?"

Guys, we've achieved that. Why is everyone still marching? What the hell are you marching for? Just go home and put on some fucking netflix. Ride a bike. Play with your dog. I don't care what you do just get off the fucking internet or wherever it is you're learning about this garbage. Feminism doesn't have your best interests at heart. And it's certainly not going to lead to a society anyone should want to be a part of.

i feel i want to move way from this country

But where to? Looks like everywhere is the same. We have to fix this ourselves.

I grew up and lived in Australia for most of my life, and I unfortunately know only too well what you mean.. A few years ago I moved to Germany, there is still a large feminist presence here too, but it's nowhere near as pronounced as in Australia. The difficulty with the majority of this is that when equality for men is mentioned, people who are conditioned by modern media automatically assume that the men are the oppressors, or that as men, we couldn't possibly know the struggle of women. That's true almost everywhere you go nowadays, the struggle of men is largely ignored and most attempts to shed light are angrily shouted down. All we can do for now is to raise awareness in our own social circles in the hope that it spreads.

Feminists want men subservient, they want us to be feminine or gay. They want a man to not even be a possible threat (threat as in "any rival, challenger to my ego, or threat to assertion of moral superiority") to them by taking away all your strengths.

Think about how these things or viewed or what ends up happening. Who gets the kids? Who gets the alimony? What if you want sex? What if you want to be physically strong? Like the outdoors? Enjoy sports? Shoot guns or participate in martial arts? Hang out with man friends and act like a man? What if you are assertive or a leader? What if you like to talk and argue philosophically or educate others?

All the above are either fed into female interests or derided as being perverse or "outdated". The idea is that any positive attribute that doesn't get filtered through feminist ideology is wrong. The things we like, where we go, what we do, our drives, the very things that make us men are called evil or backwards. It's assimilation by undermining.

Don't buy into that crap, be who you want to be. There are things you like and enjoy that the femiculture will try to shutdown, but things you know are good. Don't let this cultural phenomenon determine what you do and how you feel.

Men aren't getting married anymore. Good. Now single women have to pay men to fix their shit.
