Is feminism causing depression in men?

I think it depends, I've seen clips of universities that have a heavy PC group active. They also seem to interpret every breath men take there as assault and constantly protest. So in some cases it can cause stress and depression.

Of course not in all men and not as a singular cause but I think that feminism contributes to the mental illness in men. In various ways.

What is one of the main mantras? "We don't need men"... to be needed is very important to not get depressed.

Puls the consant vilifieing of men as violent, rapist, oppressors... does it tolls, too.

Plus the critique of masculin identities is very harmful, too.

And let's not forget the influence on the 'help industry'. Feminism brought ideology and anti-men bias in psychology, victim support...

Yes, feminism harms and kills men.

Women suffer most when men go in to depression.

Male disposability and gynocentrism are causing the gender suicide gap. Feminism does absolutely nothing against it while pretending to fight for equal treatment for both genders but feminism isn't directly causing the suicide gap.

It's not just causing depression in men, it's responsible for the depression that women face as well. That's something that a lot of people aren't willing to admit. Feminists contrary to popular opinion does not respect a women's right to choose their own lives, why? Because women must sacrifice their personal goals for the cause of the movement and that is to have more women in the work force.

I think it should be obvious to anyone with any sense that constantly subjugating men to anti-male propaganda and telling them they're responsible for all the ills in the world and should feel bad about themselves causes men to feel suicidal. What people don't discuss is the negative effects it's clearly having on women, think about it, when was the last time you saw feminists say to a Conservative woman "You go girl! We may not agree with you politically but it's great to see more women in politics" that's right, you fucking haven't. They also go out of their way to pressure women to go into careers when they don't want to and attack women who want a more traditional lifestyle where they stay at home and raise kids.

This has a knock on effect where women as a result treat men who want to date them like trash or coming up with bullshit excuses not to date men. That's not even counting all the shitty relationship and dating advice they're given on a regular basis by feminists. When FemaleDatingSrategy went up it was incredible seeing how many women out there legitimately thought they could go into their 30's and 40's and have kids and just pick any man they felt like after they'd gotten up the career ladder. Life doesn't work like that and feminists have blatantly lied to them telling them they can have 'whatever they want' so they dream of CEO billionaire boyfriends and expect men to earn more than them when affirmative action designed to provide special privileges to them has wiped a lot of high earning men out of existence.

Oh I could rant about this incoherent bullshit that feminism has started for hours, this is an ideology that's sole purpose seems not to help anyone but to drive a wedge between men and women and turn them on each other and it has worked. It's not just men who get depressed and suicidal from feminism, I'm convinced it's women as well and that's having a worse effect on men because women are being encouraged to hate and discriminate against men on a regular basis in their lives.

What i think is causing depression is the difference between expectations and reality.

Men are said to have it better professionally and in relations. They are expected to succeed in both domain or die trying and are shamed a lot if they dont (loosers, burden, failures ...).

This lie and these expectations existed in societies already. Feminism only reinforced them.

It certainly contributed to my depression. I felt like as a man I was useless and inherently bad.

Directly? May be. At least partly.

Indirectly? Absolutely.

What the devil kind of society advocates or somehow condones the idea that men and women are two seperate tribes of people, who somehow don't need each other, that a brother and sister came out of the same womb should regard themselves as having seperate citizenship or social affiliations, or that somehow the sister (being inherently "oppressed" as a woman) must have somehow came over on the Amistad.

You think this would "only" cause depression among both populations? Or is it either the cause or effect of deep mental and emotional unwellness within the entire society that we allow billionaires, politicians and the media to present to us such a grotesquely alienating "divide-and-conquer" ordering of that society to their own ends.

Whether those ends be population control or de-population agenda, globalization or simply increase their own wealth, power and control over our daily lives by messing with our heads, whispering lies and half-truths enough times until people believe it.

Why wouldn't it? Men are constantly told we're trash etc.
