I have zero clue how feminists confidently generalize half the population, then go on to say women aren't a monolith. Um, neither are men? I'm not male, so it wouldn't make sense for me to act like I know exactly how men think and act. Unless I'm some kind of narcissist, ig

You probably read the anti-male generalizations from a popular subreddit. Those subs are braindead, nothing good comes from them

I agree. They also get so defensive if a person makes a generalization of woman or even suggests that a woman can be an awful person just like a lot of men.

Add to the fact whenever a woman does something awful, people are more sympathetic, and wonder what could have caused her do to this? Was she abused as a child? Or the poor thing had a mental illness? And they will also try to justify. It's funny how they never think about the same thing when a man commits a crime.

Another obvious bias I see is how if you make a generalization of women or give someone advice regarding women, most women will call you an "incel" and say not all of them are like this, however, when we do the same for a man most guys will admit how as guys we are just plain awful or how "apologize" on the behalf of other awful guys.

Another thing which I've seen is regarding scientific studies. Whenever a study shows men in a bad light, everyone literally agrees to it and anyone who points out "not all men" is abused further, and all men will agree most of us are. awful. Additionally if a study shows a women in a bad light, most women will say ohw

When it comes to "misandry" they will often say that it does not "kill" like misogyny so it's irrelevant, not realizing how many men die everyday and have died due to biases in both laws and in society.

They will bring up things like domestic violence, murders, rapes etc. to say how misandry is justified, as if most of us men are thinking about doing that all the time. Not to mention, the awful guys that do that thing will not stop doing it just because they find out that woman don't respect them anymore. And for the men who don't do it, it's just going to radicalize a lot of themselves and will lead to a rise in misogyny in a few that will further agitate a lot of these feminists more. Not to mention, a lot of them don't understand how lonely and isolated men can get, leading them to get further radicalized and become "incels" and we wonder why we have school shootings.

It really disgusts me how they react when we talk about the male mental health crisis or boys not doing well in school. With feminists taking over the media and in a lot of the academics, they themselves are leading us to a disaster and their bigotry and ego is too high for them to realize it before its too late. The major shift in young male voters in the US elections over the past 2-4 years should've been a warning sign for them.

It's funny if you change the generalization from "man" to "black man" or "gay man" how their entire view point changes. Which is one of the main reasons why I stopped being liberal as a teenager, most of them are too obsessed with identities and too emotionally charged to think critically or rationally.

That said, I'm a gender abolitionist, and believe in equal opportunities for both men and women. I still believe both of us are more alike than different and do believe a lot of the mental differences are possibly due to socialization itself. We need the feminists to overcome their emotions, their self righteous attitudes and rather than trauma dumping and making ad hominem fallacies against men and labelling them as inferior, but have actual discussion with Men's Rights activist on how we can solve these issues.

This is not a soccer match of "men" vs "women." Men themselves are way too divided and lack any sort of social cohesion to be one side, and also we and feminists can both have different approaches when it comes to gender equality. We both of have issues that are not possible for the other side to realize without living in each other shoes, but we should collaborate so that we can reach the goal together.

Yes, it bothers me.

It also bothers me when we're all, "women this, women that." Its the same mentality. I've always said that's one of the biggest differences between the MRM and feminism: we police our bad actors.

it is ironically the same vernacular employed by racists, radicals, fascists, authoritarians etc.

villifying a portion of the population, either to prop up their own agenda or scapegoat/demonise them. a common enemy is essential. a great example is: Mao Zedongs cultural revolution, vladimir lenin (later more stalin) and the kulaks, and ofc jews + nazis.

they hate trump, but he used similar ideology for immigrants.

see the irony here?

its like saying all black people are bad because a minority commit the crimes.

You learn how to ignore it. Half of growing up is realizing how stupid you are, and the other half is realizing people are even stupider than how stupid you think yourself is. And then its only a matter of “never attribute anything to malice that can be attributed to stupidity”
