Women are put on a pedestal. Delicate flowers to be protected vs evil predatory men. It stems from chivalry days which we still have now. Men, maybe due to evolution, bend over backwards to protect women. Evolution wise it makes sense-we need as many women alive as possible to survive and create babies. Men we can have 1/2 and still survive. Either way, doesn’t matter. It happened. Time and again we see it-damsel in distress films for example. No women in armies.

The ‘logic’ is also that men did all the bad-Stalin, Hitler all male. But anyone with a brain knows that that’s just because majority of leaders were male. ‘We’ did a lot of good too.

Men as are bad as women here or worse because men created those norms and now may genuinely believe it through ignorance. Women implicitly know better that women can be just as evil as men because they are women themselves/have female friends so when they peddle the myth, it’s a deliberate lie.

Also manipulation. Feminists are master manipulators. Despite being totally wrong, they’ve managed to create so much social capital that men see anti feminism as evil. They see women’s voices as inherently better, more valid. Women as nicer. And generally only the worst men are vocal anti feminists (except us haha!).

How do we get these men on our side? Often these are called white knights. They legitimise these women because they think oh a man agrees therefore every other men is toxic.

We have a small but great slither of female allies. But it’s so small that we are still hated.

Also these male feminists aren’t happy. To be a male fem means hating oneself as a man. So double reason to he help them…
