“Hey men why don’t you join a group that actively hates you!”

Funny enough when I mentioned I was an Egalitarian on Quora I was told it's Mysoginistic which I didn't believe it cuz they think Feminism is equality

Why on earth don't I want to join a movement that actively shuts down male-only abuse/homeless shelters and works against getting rape legislation gender-neutralised?

Peak gaslighting with that statement

Feminists will say that feminist isn't about addressing men's issues, then will turn around and say egalitarians are feminists. I'm sorry, I address issues for everyone. I fight for minorities of all colors and backgrounds, not just one.

"men, why don't you support a group that lobbies to make it legal to rape you, attacks any attempt you make at building support structures for you, belittles any trials or issues you face, and tells you that you're lesser just for your existence. I mean, if you don't support that you're probably just a horrible person". It's not even a lack of irony, it's just being completely out of touch with reality

"Why are some Jews still not in the NSDAP"

Altruist479 · 2026-05-14T14:11:20+00:00

"Still" should be replaced with "anymore" and put in the end of a sentence.

Why won't slaves willingly go back to The Plantation?

Ok-Statement6851 · 2026-05-14T14:21:50+00:00

I mean, it’s a story as old as time itself…

Why wouldn’t men want to support a movement that is actively intent on taking away their babies? Why wouldn’t men want to support a movement that actively tries to take away their money? Why wouldn’t men want to support a movement that actively tries to demonize them as terrible people who are supposedly only after sex?

I don’t know 🤷

because I believe in equality and equity, not gymocentrism

dependency_injector · 2026-05-14T18:21:55+00:00

Because some of them want me dead and others don't see any issue in it

Why aren't there any vegans working at McDonalds?

Truth be told, I used to be a Feminist. If we were using early 2010s definitions, I would probably still consider myself one.

But in today's world? Nah.

The reason why some men aren't feminists has a lot more so to do with some of the toxic ideologies and harm it perpetuates most especially when talking about gender most especially there are also some radfems I've seen online who are open to lusting after real life teenage boys who may as well be under 17 and outting themselves as predators also some of them are transphobic. BTW I don't hate a lot of feminism just acknowledging you can like good aspects of it but also acknowledge how the community also whitewashes some of it's harmful ideologies. Being critical of feminism doesn't mean it translates to I hate women or POC including trans women. I'm no longer the person in the past who has anti sjws beliefs that I'm influenced by biased and toxic beliefs since my worldviews have changed ever since, but that doesn't changed that I can agree on something but I can also have the right to disagree with other people's worldviews.

At least they're better than the ones that call you a misogynist when you say you're an egalitarian. 🙄

PassengerCultural421 · 2026-05-15T05:39:19+00:00

I'll pass.

AigisxLabrys · 2026-05-15T01:19:42+00:00

Is there more? What does it say?

fordesc16883 · 2026-06-13T08:03:14+00:00

I'm not a feminist because I've been raped/sexually assaulted/harassed/stalked and in an abusive relationship with women. I can't fight for the rights of a gender that's done me so wrong.

Orful · 2026-05-15T00:08:04+00:00

The difference between feminism now and before is social media. Social media creates toxic echo chambers, and that led to the feminism movement we have now. It thrives on engagement bait, which includes stuff like “men are innately rapists.” I do actually believe that there are unique challenges women face, and feminists are able to bring up valid criticisms in our culture, but we don’t get that in our rage-bait, echo chamber social media culture. We get misandry because that’s what creates engagement.

Waken_Sentry · 2026-05-14T16:45:28+00:00

Feminism is a broad term that encompasses a lot of different things and I don't think feminism and it's equivalent for men are at all at odds with each other.

I don't like it when people generalize men by the apex of capitalism and I don't appreciate when we generalize feminism by an apex that we find unfavorable.

The casual dehumanization of men has I think less to do with feminism and more than any ideology can be co-opted by tribalism.

I don't think it's good to entrench ourself in this idea that liberational ideologies have to be at odds with each other according to gender.

Edit: Break the cycle, fellas... You are better than this. Rejecting neurotic tribalism is the most radical thing you can do as a MRA.
