Why Feminism Is Men’s Rights Too - (Not)

If feminism was about obtaining equal rights for men, feminists would be delighted that the men's rights movement exists and is fighting for the same goal as them.

If you're in a war you don't tell people who want to fight alongside you that they don't need to fight because you'll do it.

The reasons males are ignored or not recognised as much within this issue is because of the traditional gender roles which Feminism aims to fight.

Okay.... and you are fighting this how again? By telling men to man up and other such nonsense? I have never heard of feminism fighting against male gender roles.

Feminism actually wants to stop this too! Feminism aims to increase education both amongst men and women that rape is unacceptable and consent is the top priority. The sooner this education is in place or improved where necessary, the less women will be scared of men!

By what telling women inflated rape statistics and saying we live in a rape culture? People know rape is wrong and telling people not to rape is like telling a mugger to not mug people. The people who rape are usually sociopaths who education fails on because they do not care. You could better educate people on what is consent and what is not but when you constantly change what is and what is not and push it to where the only thing that matters is what is going on in the victims head not even having to not voice consent then it doesn't matter if men get consent or not now does it?

it just focuses that the inequalities come from the perceived “weakness” of women

By fighting against equality laws in the courtoom or telling our leaders to veto a default equal custody law?

You can claim these things all you want but when the organizations you are a member of fight against them and I can prove it from multiple angles why consider yourself one of them? Quit being a naive ideologue and face the reality.

The patriarchy oppresses men and women. Feminists are trying to destroy the patriarchy so gender roles wont have to exist and men will be heard when going through abuse.
