I really don't like girl writes what. I don't tend to like anyone who doesn't find violence, "violent corrections", and "corrective punishments" against their significant other as not ethically questionable

I still think its stupid why don't you call it equal movement

Maybe so, but more mainstream feminists believe in removing gender roles and equal equity than male rights activists. I've never seen nor heard of any male rights activist actually doing anything to promote equal equity or even to help the areas where they think males get slighted on. All I see and read are them bashing on feminism

But thats what Males's Right Activists is for. The only reason they bash on feminists is that most feminists that shows up to their rallies, protesting , are highly cringe worthy. This is how things tend to go: Feminist: Men are more violent than women. MRA: Well, studies show that Women are just as violent and tends to instigate domestic violence more. 1/3 of the instances when females are the victims, are the ones that the females instigated. Feminist: Well, you're a pig. .______.

I don't believe so, as a feminist, I've personally never encountered examples of your idea of feminists except as exacerbated by the media. But just like how we don't expect westburo church to reflect all christians, you should expect all feminists to be like that. Also at least feminists are fighting for changes in how society treats gender roles. That it's not fair that battered husbands don't have proper support as much as the glass ceiling isn't fair for capable women. I've never encountered one MRA who has tried to change things around for men. Only to talk about how much feminists are stupid. Maybe my anecdotal samples are not a sufficient representation, which it's not, but I'm open to hearing if you know of any MRA who actually go out there and try to make a difference other than tearing people who are down

Once again, I don't know where it's like that for you, but I've been a part of many feminist organizations and I can tell you from my experience that I don't see that happening, and that the outcry of a radical some shouldn't speak to a whole group. Like the westburo church for all christians. Your image doesn't really prove me wrong and you right. Also thanks for implying that you view us people as trash. Because that's not offensive at all in what I had perceived as a friendly discussion. No hate pls was what you posted wasn't it?

iToxic, I think you're talking about Radical Feminism, not actual feminism. Actual feminism is practically dead these days. Actual feminists -do- want those things you posted in your sign. I had a friend (female) who went into the military at the same time I did. She was heartbroken that she couldn't be (the Air Force equivalent of) a Paratrooper. I believe she settled for Security Forces, which is also potentially dangerous, but not nearly as much as Para. Some women actually do want the same rights as men, and that includes what many might see as being allowed to do harder and more dangerous work. As for RadFems? They scare the crap out of me, and not in the 'I'm intimidated' way, either. In the 'I can't believe I have to share the planet with these people' way. you know, like the Westboro Church or Honey Boo Boo.

I like the idea behind feminism and I think it's an important movement but like with anything else you have radicals that take things to the extreme.
