And that selective attention (towards women) is why people think feminism is "good" while if you remove that selective attention you can see what an anti-male movement it is.

Name good things feminism did while not also campaigning against the same good for men. You'll quickly realize your list is surprisingly short. They helped abused women, but acted as agents against recognizing abused men. That can't be considered "good" unless your selective attention ignores men.

Go down your list of "all the good feminism did" in that light... I'll wait for your results. If you want a shortcut, because I've had this debate before: feminism has advocated against FGM while being quiet about MGM (neither supporting maintaining barely short of acting against recognition of MGM).

When you actually look at feminism impartially you'll realize the following: the first wave was not for equality but rather for equal rights for women while avoiding men's responsibilities. The second wave was about reducing women's responsibilities. The third wave is about increasing men's responsibilities towards women. And, finally, you'll see that the very little good feminism has done is more than outweighed by the heaps of bad.
