What do you think are some indisputable benefits of feminism for men?

Feminism ultimately requires men to compete against women.

Therefore, I have no interest in aiding them or supporting them in competing against me. Especially when they will use affirmative action and other special advantages against me.

TRP is not a movement and therefore there is no sense in trying to organize or support any other movement be it feminism or MRA's.

In fact, what makes TRP more attractive to me is that it is a toolbox that offers not only understanding of the mechanics of how relationships and the world works but how to make the most of that.

The MRM is essentially feminism for men. It gets everyone angry but unlike women, we can't organize and protest without being viewed as misogynists and bigots.

I, of course, readily admit that I'm a misogynist. After 45 years of listening to women blame men for everything and spew forth all manner of hatred, I don't see how I could or should be anything else.

But I digress. TRP is about men making their way in a new world where women have changed the rules but the same old evolutionary mechanics still prevail.

I have no obligation to support women in anything unless it's just to balance her while she's bouncing on my dick.

To the RP man, feminism is a non-issue. Raising awareness is not a valuable thing to do; it is unproductive by definition. There's no reason for you to waste time on something unproductive.

Edit: Personally, I do not live in the realm of activism, and I don't see things through that lens. The world is much saner without it.

You can personally outplay feminism, but its destructive effects on Western society will become progressively worse and it'll be progressively more difficult to insulate yourself from them. So unless you are personally profiting from advancing feminism no, you shouldn't support it.

there are also some indisputable benefits of feminism for men, if you correctly identify them and use them to your advantage.

This is an unforgiving sub where statements must be backed up. An assertion like that, you better have evidence.

I'm fine with feminism when it realizes it's a lobby: i.e. "we're working to make thing better for women."

I'm not fine with it when feminists act like it's more of a religion: i.e. "If you don't agree with everything I say, I don't need to know anything else about you to decide that you are a horrible person."

I don't have time for it. Anytime a chick brings up feminism ill bail on them. One of the first things I'll find out is if she's a feminist, if she says yes that's an instant not worth my time. Although it's pretty rare for a chick to say they are if you ask.

No. Feminism, at least the most recent wave, is about advancing feminist interests above everything and at the cost of anything. Why support any movement that feels the advancement of one segment of society is contingent on the destruction of other segments.

TRP is an anti-feminist reactionary community. Were you drunk when you clicked on 'submit'?
