Interview with Kenyan college student who is both an MRA and feminist, Dija.

How can you expect male advocacy to have political success with this attitude? If a feminist wants to support men but isn't willing to abandon their ideology, are we supposed to just turn them away? There are countless people on the right who endorse traditional gender roles, who support policies and ideals which actively harm men, but if any of them were willing to work with us to bring attention to male issues, it would be foolish to antagonize them by saying something like "you cannot be conservative and an MRA."

Male advocacy isn't so popular a political sphere that we can afford to gatekeep in this way. Does that mean we should stop challenging Feminism's theories? Absolutely not, just as we should continue to challenge conservative ideals.
