Masculinism and the role of men in the feminist movement

[FinnzyWinzy]

The feminist movement needs to be reduced by 1,000,000%, not expanded.

Focusing on male victimhood and female power(therefore blame) is antithetical to feminism.

Feminism is chivalry.

It's our loss if we don't listen to you? pfft, uh-huh...

i believe in equality for both men and women and that's why i give feminists the finger

[TheAetherealMeadow]

@TrueBlueCanuck If you believe in equality for men and women why give the finger to people who are trying to achieve that goal?

[TrueBlueCanuck]

@TheAetherealMeadow because feminists don't want that goal,they want to destroy men and also think that women are superior to men,but believe it or not i was never like this but feminists with their misandry made me this way

[TheAetherealMeadow]

@TrueBlueCanuck You clearly know nothing of feminism.

[TrueBlueCanuck]

@TheAetherealMeadow ok,please educate me,tell me what feminists really do?

[TheAetherealMeadow]

@TrueBlueCanuck Work towards equality of all genders. I would go into detail but it's difficult to do with a 500 character limit.

[TrueBlueCanuck]

@TheAetherealMeadow if that's so,why don't all female criminals get the same sentence as male criminals?,if that's so why do they want to make legal for a woman to kill her husband in england? if that's so why do men have to fight to keep their kids but women get them automatically? and if feminists do want equality for both genders why so many to them have sexist quotes like "women need men like fish need a bicycle" "all sex is rape" and many more

[TheAetherealMeadow]

@TrueBlueCanuck If you think that's what feminists are doing then you know nothing about feminists. Feminists support none of the things that you mentioned. I'm going to make a "myths about feminists video" one of these days

[TrueBlueCanuck]

@TheAetherealMeadow ok then,i want prove from feminists that they support both genders

The masculinist movement has so far been a huge flop. It's been around since the 60's and not made really any progress to speak of. I think there is too little cohesion in the movement. Half the MRA's are male supremacists, and the other half are trying to fight patriarchy and the traditional male stereotype. As a feminist I see the same thing happening in our movement. I'm starting to think that advocatism is 99% jackassery.

[TheAetherealMeadow]

@CamillaCalamity I wouldn't even call the male supremacists masculinists. They're just anti-feminists. A lot of people tend to imagine masculinism as the opposite of feminism but that's not the case because masculinism and feminism are complimentary movements that strive for the same goal. But unfortunately popular culture tends to depict feminism as anti-male instead of pro-equality so as long as that half calls themselves masculinists, people will think that's what masculinists really are.

Masculinism and Feminism only strive for the same goals in certain ways.

When it's Broadly defined with loose terms, they do. "Fairness", "Equality", etc. The deviation occurs in the interpretation and/or the moral implementation of those overarching terms.

There's are a minority among the self-titled "Feminists" with a sound comprehension of the vernacular they all deploy, however. Christina Hoff Sommers, one of the exalted among them.

The degree of value that is assigned to male contributions to society, in the myriad potential ways it can be, is laughable.

Before anyone gets huffy about the recognition they imagine, maybe it's the degree of contribution they're deluded about. Primarily because they don't contemplate the significance of the roles that don't interest them.

As women realize the power in the hands of contribution, they'll fear it.

As men realize it, they should.
