Feminists are dishonest about equality.

The most hilarious thing is watching a feminist argue why females shouldn’t be part of the military draft

They've moved on to "Equity" instead of "Equality" a looooong time ago btw.

For years I have maintained a clear distinction: equal rights are non-negotiable, but ideological extremism masquerading as equality must be called out. In India and elsewhere, we see policies and public narratives shaped under the banner of feminism that often ignore male victims of domestic violence, false accusations, biased custody battles, workplace deaths, mental health crises, and suicide rates. When accountability is demanded within feminist circles for misandry or institutional discrimination against men, it is frequently dismissed rather than debated. Equality cannot be selective. If an ideology remains silent when men suffer, yet demands universal sympathy when women suffer, that is not egalitarianism; it is asymmetry.

Not only this. It’s bad enough that “male feminists” or just about any guy looking for cheap public validation can just say women should rule the world instead of men and they’ll be praised for it. It’s not hard to find these types of grifters on TikTok for example. One such man is son-in-law to the King of Sweden - married to his 2nd daughter. (I’ll bring up an example a little later.) Thankfully it’s not hard to find women who are wise to this so the term “ally” might be the new “nice guy”.

I said that in school a few years ago, and even men told me that I was a blatant misogynist. Hence why I hate both men and women on that side of the spectrum.

Feminism is not about equality, is about privileges.

InnerSwineHound · 2026-03-02T09:45:26+00:00

Talking to feminists is like talking to my mother. I don’t talk to my mother

ElderEons · 2026-03-02T14:42:12+00:00

Women have more privileges than men do. Just look at dating apps for instance. The most average or even barely okay looking woman gets flooded with matches and messages. Yet if a guy is average looking, average height, women mostly ignore him. There’s no sympathy for men there. They are told to man up and increase their status. Women get catered to if they are good looking. Men are expected to pay for everything. Etc, I could keep going and going.

Feminism has pushed for and won many policies that advantage women and disadvantage men. Anyone who claims it is about equality is either incredibly naive or disingenuous.

Main-Tiger8537 · 2026-03-02T12:42:10+00:00

ok lets look at it from another perspective and think about what feminism is about or what a feminist is...

do they advocate the liberation of women which implies womens interests? (not equality for women which is misleading)

do they advocate equal opportunity or equal outcomes? (how statistical parity gets evaluated and that people fail are the main issues here)

are feminists a monolith who want all the same things with the same actions in order to get it?

are there hypocrits or imposters abusing the term feminism to hide or excuse toxic behavior of women?

personally i think the main critic points are how they tackle patriarchy theory "at which point is it gone if people consent to a conservative lifestyle" and toxic behavior "why it gets gendered and how does it alter" how to get past it...

Take a break from this app, much more peaceful.

It's because they have a twisted view of attraction. Women love to see men vulnerable, but only women who truly like those men back care to protect that vulnerability.

When it is socially normalized to be constantly put at risk of rejection, but also ridiculed for not volunteering to be rejected for everything, not just intimacy, their version of equality is basically a circus party. Where women exist and are constantly entertained by clowns, mimes and performers who risk their life and reputation to put a smile on their face (approval).

"Who's going to be the man?" Is just admitting how they prefer that imbalance. Men running a circus in hopes women attend, and women screaming about how there aren't enough men going to events or clubs to date, while not doing any of the things men are pushed to just to be seen or responded to.

I know this is about equality, it's very hard to establish equality though when the other side doesn't actually care about you. When guys miss girls they don't day, I miss my dishwasher, I miss my maid, or my self cleaning AI sex doll or some crap. But when women miss men, they say things like that. They miss free repairs, protection, extermination, gifts, and an extra paycheck. All those girls putting their face on camera saying being single is expensive... That's what comes up a lot.

When women see suffering as attractive, equality is going to disgust them. "Men need to go to war" and "men should start off in prison" are perfect examples of women displaying that they literally want to watch you suffer. Same for the women who say no and get upset men respect that, they want you to hear no, suffer, and suffer more in hopes of changing her mind.

It's absolutely deplorable behavior. But instead, society sustains their right to want men to exist as entertainment... Gladiators fighting to resist nature's execution.

burn3rAckounte · 2026-03-02T20:58:32+00:00

I think once they got what they want ("equal" pay, "equal" academic placement, etc), it became a mask off moment.

Gen Z women either are or will be very soon out earning men, female graduates will soon outnumber men by 2:1. These aren't seen as tragedies like they were when it was the opposite, but rather explicit victories. Nobody cares and nobody will care. What a woman can be has progressed rapidly in the past 60 years, but a man is still expected to take his situation and dig himself out with no complaints.

Former_Range_1730 · 2026-03-02T23:11:21+00:00

You should have stopped at Feminists are dishonest.

They tend to say things like,

"when I try to define what heterosexuality is. I confront a nonexistent object, a fetish, an ideological form which cannot be grasped in reality," - Monique Wittig

The Straight Mind And Other Essays (Monique Wittig) (z-lib.org).pdf

And it you think I just cherry picked some irrelevant woman of the past who has no effect on todays feminists, think again, here's Monica Bianco of 2019,

"Historically, women have been conditioned to believe that heterosexuality is natural or innate,"

Miley Cyrus' split with Liam Hemsworth isn't just celebrity gossip — it's a blow to the patriarchy

Sure, my heterosexuality is fake, no natural. Right. No, these are not honest people at all.

Fearless-Scallion498 · 2026-03-03T05:03:22+00:00

Well, it's like I've been saying. That feminism is, in actuality, a hate movement that was mislabeled at the beginning due to natural human ignorance, but nevertheless has lived up to that definition in it's own peculiar way. I'm not just talking about the obvious hateful rants you see, but these feminists who disown them as well. They come off sounding rosy, but then when you read what they're actually saying, they're still saying that women are superior to men and that men deserve to have bad things happen to them.

Open-Inevitable1200 · 2026-03-02T21:34:34+00:00

Feminists have consistently denied or deflected mens issues.

Feminists sent so much threats to a woman who opened up male abuse shelters she had to close them for her safety and the men's.

When people bring up the draft, they deflect it by saying no one should be drafted.

When people bring up the double standard of women hitting back and men expected not to, they just say no one should hit eachother.

When men bring up unfair divorce laws they just say choose better.

Technically correct but always trying to get the spotlight off men. They make it a general problem rather than admit it is a men problem. Men are told how to deal with their problem rather than focus on fixing the problem.

Feels like pulling teeth for them to just focus on men and their problems.

Exzstence · 2026-03-02T11:09:28+00:00

The ones who claim to be "female supremacists" have a superiority complex. They feel the need to assert dominance and power even they have none, and they truly feel inferior to men. It's a show just to make them feel good about appearing to look equal to men. The truth is, and they know it - men have always been superior. So honestly, I do not give a damn about what some female has to say. They can talk all the shit they want. At the end of the day, I'm happy with being a man and they're just lowly individuals barking from the side.

snowybootyfull · 2026-03-02T19:56:12+00:00

It's because it's a movement by women for women that decided they also wanted men to support them. It's fine if they want to come up for Womens rights, but they're trying to say that they're for everybody's rights which is just not true. They want support from everybody. Also most femist spaces are turning into echo Chambers. They're not ready to hear that yet tho

wroubelek · 2026-03-03T05:02:10+00:00

You're largely preaching to the choir. There's plenty of feminist soyboys here however, although I doubt they'll read threads like this one. Still, a good post 👍

Billmacia · 2026-03-03T18:46:13+00:00

Femisnist (most women) will hate you for saying that you are against feminism and pro-Egalitarianism. Because they can't control the narrative.

They more I think about it, feminism is a narcissistic movement. And who is more prone to narcissism? Research show that women are more prone to vulnerable narcissism. "a subtype of Narcissistic Personality Disorder characterized by deep-seated insecurity, hypersensitivity to criticism, and chronic self-pity rather than overt grandiosity"

Does it ring a bell?

Rupaism · 2026-03-02T13:17:31+00:00

I mean for everything we can blame the cringe performatively anti-male second wave feminist.

Modern feminism and men's rights activism should be focused on gender abolitionism. You can't achieve equality between the genders without deconstruction the idea as a whole.

Happy_Reflection5583 · 2026-03-03T20:58:25+00:00

MensRights logic: Feminism is bad because you define feminism as "Women good men bad", but when feminists define MRA as "Men good women bad" its a unfair generalization

SaaSWriters · 2026-03-05T03:33:02+00:00

I disagree.

We have to respect that we are different. Yes, we should be equal under the law.

But the issue is the devaluing of the heterosexual family unit - with the father as the head.

This process of destroying this unit weakens society. Why are we experiencing it?

Because this movement doesn’t want men to lead and most males today don’t want to lead either.

Proud-Question-4479 · 2026-03-07T06:48:27+00:00

Lastly some Feminists have openly admitted not only that they hate men but that they are also “female supermacists” in other words that “women are superior to men”. This shouldn’t be tolerated by anyone and harshly so.

As least they're honest about their views.

Sunny-Salary1305S · 2026-03-03T10:21:19+00:00

I never claimed men had it easier so it seems you misunderstood my comment,I explained that men have always been prioritize and arguing the opposite is impossible because doing even a little research will make you realize you're wrong. Now men have issues aswell but FEMinism is mostly for women since they're the most affected by sexism,most men can't say they got denied things simply because gender,that other people had complete ownership of them since birth while unfortunately many women can for instance a few little girls around the world are getting their genitals mutilated as we speak because of cultural practice and they can't ask questions because "it's how they've always done it" ,some little girl who got r- worder has just been denied abortion because some rich men in a suit decided she's a murderer, but of course some little boys are probably getting sa'd and the reason im saying all of this is to make you understand that america isn't the center of the world and its not here just because Becky got politely asked her number and she doesn't like the guy so she'll call him a creepy catcaller,its because we have urgent issues for both men and women. Most feminists who are active in their pursuits are going after urgent cases for men and women , I'm not claiming the only issue men can have is SA at all there are many others but we really can't do much about the less urgent issues for both men and women. Also I'm not talking the issues in my family, obviously. u/wroubelek

Sunny-Salary1305S · 2026-03-03T03:54:44+00:00

that's because for thousands of years women have been oppressed by the patriarchy and please don't say we're faking it or being dramatic or whatever because I myself being a woman have witnessed it and lived through it firsthand multiple times in my life, if you want a small example then check out how women's bodies and medicine is so under researched and underfunded which is honestly baffling because healthcare is genuinely the bare minimum like genuinely the barest minimum , women are always gonna be seen as dramatic and not taken seriously for healthcare issues like period cramps for example, if you've ever had a cramp anywhere on your body then you must know how excruciatingly painful it is well imagine that I a place as sensitive as your uterus for hours and hours and having to deal with it in class at the young age of 9 and now imagine that some women have endometryosis (I think I spelled it wrong) and have to deal with pain that's way worst and not being able to get much relief since even though it's really common it's extremely undere researched. It's not just period related things as well, It's so many other things big or small that have been made to let males be comfortable prioritising men over women, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. So its not that feminists don't care about men, it's that men have always been prioritized and it's mostly women that need feminism they can't also prioritize men in that. I'm not invalidating your pain but if you guys want a change then speak up yourselves because men's voices are gonna be prioritized over women's anyways
