And of course most feminists are completely normal and good people. So a fraction of a fraction.
Indeed, but I still feel that feminists in general are misguided but I'll leave that for another debate
Also, some humanities fields aren't just about the background of humanity or society
Psychology in particular covers the human mind and behavior in general
It's just as applicable today as it is to many years ago
Good people putting themselves under the banner of feminism, only gives credibility to the 'top' feminists who actually influence and institute policies which are sexist and harm men. Therefore I dont really care who you are, if you call yourself a feminist, you are my enemy.
The definition of feminism in the dictionary is as follows:
1 : the theory of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes
2 : organized activity on behalf of women's rights and interests
Definition 1 seems harmless enough, but definition 2 makes it clear that this is a women's movement
Correct
feminism is for women
Their argument is equality, but the only care about women
Which normally would be fine, provided men get their own movement
Problem is feminism fights against that
Not because they oppose men's advocacy though
Because MRAs are sexist AFATK
Doesn't matter what their reason is. That they oppose equality and won't listen to other arguments is the point. Why is irrelevent.
There's plenty of documented examples of feminism organizing against men's concerns when it conflicts with their agenda
Instead of working with us, they try to shut us out of the discussion
Sometimes violently
And why?
That they do these things is not doubted
but to say it is because they oppose equality is at best misguided
It's accurate no matter their reason.
Why do you think why they do it changes that they do?
It does not
I never said it does
but it changes how we can judge them on it
and how we can solve the problem
You just said it's misguided to say they oppose equality, when it's a factual statement.
They do not oppose equality
They oppose groups that supposedly fight for equality
@InsaneCaterpilla's logic is sound, but just to break down the argument into simple points that can be understood:
that is different than deliberately opposing all equality
1) Feminism only cares about women while arguing for equality, by definition
Yes
Same with the MRM
2) The MRM primarily cares about men while arguing for equality, by definition
correct
3) Only feminism has tried to shut the MRM out of the discussion. We've been trying to work with them for years
r/menslib does it fairly well
