*lable feminists applied to MRAs and they accepted

2018-09-29 20:46:10 UTC  

What difference does that make? If you're forming your identity around your activism for men's rights and in being a man as your defining trait you're an identitarian.

2018-09-29 20:46:20 UTC  

to quote a prolific MRA "If you are not both an MRA and an WRA, you are not egalitarian, if you arent either, you are not a humanist"

2018-09-29 20:47:13 UTC  

But there is a difference between being an MRA and being for men's(and human's) rights, just as there's a difference between being for women's rights and being a feminist

2018-09-29 20:47:28 UTC  

yes?

2018-09-29 20:47:48 UTC  

So then that quote is false.

2018-09-29 20:47:55 UTC  

being for mens rights definatly does make you an MRA just as being for womens rights makes you a WRA

2018-09-29 20:48:24 UTC  

Being and *activist* for men's rights makes you an MRA.

2018-09-29 20:48:54 UTC  

Or an *advocate*

2018-09-29 20:49:33 UTC  

Which ive seen MRA to mean to at least some degree of recularity as well

2018-09-29 20:50:10 UTC  

Do you think most who consider themselves an MRA would consider themselves feminists?

2018-09-29 20:50:12 UTC  

not that its much of a difference "to advocate" is an action

2018-09-29 20:50:32 UTC  

No, becouse feminism has never been about womens rights

2018-09-29 20:50:41 UTC  

Not even 150 years ago

2018-09-29 20:51:00 UTC  

They WOULD consider themselves to be WRAs

2018-09-29 20:51:37 UTC  

So I've been thinking

2018-09-29 20:51:46 UTC  

Plenty of feminists are going to say "if you're for women's rights you're a feminist". You're doing the exact same thing here, the only difference is you think you're right just as many of them think they're right.

2018-09-29 20:51:59 UTC  

Republicans can get women on their side via family ingrained values.

2018-09-29 20:52:12 UTC  

Except MRA is LITERALLY just the noun to the verb

2018-09-29 20:52:17 UTC  

Also

2018-09-29 20:52:22 UTC  

According to whom?

2018-09-29 20:52:30 UTC  

Democrats can get males on their side via soy conditioning and appealing to ideals of fairness.

2018-09-29 20:52:35 UTC  

Im fine with MRAs beeing seen as feminists

2018-09-29 20:52:41 UTC  

see

2018-09-29 20:52:51 UTC  

Regarding fairness, males react to the ideal and females react viscerally.

2018-09-29 20:53:06 UTC  

if YOU mean that you are for equal rights by saying you are a feminist, then, yes, most MRAs are feminists

2018-09-29 20:53:15 UTC  

I didn't ask what you're fine with, I asked what most who consider themselves an MRA would consider themselves.

2018-09-29 20:53:24 UTC  

But overall, republicans appeal to masculine drives and democrats to feminine.

2018-09-29 20:53:39 UTC  

@Schedrevka well, again that depends on how YOU define those terms

2018-09-29 20:53:53 UTC  

In regards to MRA, thats pretty straighforward

2018-09-29 20:53:58 UTC  

I'm rather upset about the amount of males who can't get their nut up and end up siding with the women.

2018-09-29 20:54:10 UTC  

It depends on the individual's definition. Do you think most MRA's definition of 'feminism' would be something they ascribe to themselves.

2018-09-29 20:54:21 UTC  

@schred

2018-09-29 20:54:49 UTC  

@Schedrevka well some will tell you it depends on what you mean by feminism

2018-09-29 20:54:52 UTC  

If you walked up and asked the average MRA "do you consider yourself a feminist" and only allowed yes, or no, do you think they would say yes or no?

2018-09-29 20:55:16 UTC  

He's got ya Punk.

2018-09-29 20:55:23 UTC  

Because you're doing the exact same thing here by forcing your definition onto others and expecting everyone to agree with it.

2018-09-29 20:55:27 UTC  

@Schedrevka after all, you can discuss concepts without agreeing on definitions, cant you?#

2018-09-29 20:56:10 UTC  

Why are you even making the case that MRAs would be feminist?

2018-09-29 20:56:11 UTC  

The point is that your definition of "MRA just means you want men to be treated well" isn't the common definition of MRA.

2018-09-29 20:56:21 UTC  

No.
