Why is this subreddit so pessimistic?

I feel like instead of trying to find ways to improve male rights everyone just acts down in the dumps, I get life can get you down but you can either let it...

But the question is to the people on it and the pessimistic feeling they are having no?

Anyway, I feel as though I can't speak for everyone. The sentiment is that the majority of feminists and feminism activists dismiss the plights and difficulty faced by men in modern society. There are regular and large examples of how gender biases are being played out in media and day to day life. An example would be how the gender pay gap myth has only recently been acknowledged as having been debunked yet it was used as a club to beat men and the "Male dominated patriarchy" for years now. The pessimistic feeling men have is the automatic assumptions made about them without any information, such as the assumption that we are dangerous, that we are presumed to be villains when we are unknown to women. The cases of false allegations are no as rare as one may think and before we veer into statistics it might be worth remembering that the opposite is also true for women and convictions in cases where it is true are rarer still.

But that's my view and I can't really speak for everyone. My own experience in the world outside which I do venture into regularly has never been pleasant when dealing with women, from my mother up to my wife and everything in-between has usually been poor, turned very poorly and more often than not left me the worse for it. My experience again, but I'm willing to bet it's not an isolated instance. Judging from the amount of commentary and interactions I've had with users on here women are quite destructive and vindictive, that's not to say that men aren't but women aren't held to account in the same fashion.
