Response to Sue's Vid

I respond out of both amusement and irritation in a fairly disjointed manner. I recorded another video that was a bit more calculated, but I figured that this was the most honest to my actual feelings on the matter. Watch for some feminist head-bobbing!

BTW, I agree on the point about 'reverse racism' being a misnomer, and, being a misleading term. I too think something is either racism, or, it's not. Something racist is still racist, regardless of which race does it.

Thanks, at least we can agree on this point :)

In your video, you appeared to have a misunderstanding of what we believe. You seemed to believe that we want some kind of unwarranted or foul power over women. Some of the things we want are an end to the male-only draft, the creation of men's shelters to escape abuse, the creation of a Violence Against Men Act, since there is already a Violence Against Women Act, an end to female-only alimony, etc. What we want is strict legal equality.

This may sound weird, but I think that most moderate feminists would agree with most of this. I think what really rubs some people the wrong way is that the MRM is largely a response to feminism. If I can identify as a feminist, then why can't change happen from within one movement? Why do genders have to be so separatist? To me, feminism is all about equality of the genders and the realization that being whoever you are shouldn't be a disadvantage. I think this is something we sort of agree on.

I honestly tried to find some sense in what you had to say and couldn't. You got nothing right. Men need a movement simply because there is so much discrimination against them.

You would find yourself struggling so for words to describe things if you just understood that basic reality.

Whatever feminism is or isn't doesn't matter to me. That fact is that feminists fight every effort men make to improve their own lives.
