Why do so many men hate feminism?

Question

EpicDweeb · Accepted Answer

Because it fails to do what people claim it does. People argue that feminism is for equality but men and women are already equal. In terms of political freedoms and legal rights men and women are equal and in many cases women have MORE rights than men, i. e. favoritism in child-custody cases, a woman's say over a man's in any given abortion, rape accusations etc. (I won't make any claims as to whether these are good or bad things so continue believing whatever you intend to believe regarding them).

The major problem isn't that we're not equal, it's that we're DIFFERENT. Men and women are NOT the same no matter how much people try to claim otherwise. We have significant biological differences that we can't and shouldn't be trying to change OR ignore. Men are better than women at some things and women are better than men at other things. This poses a problem since those differences demand that we treat each others in different ways.

Showing respect means something different to a man than it does to a woman simply because men and women consider DIFFERENT things to be respectful. For example, girls instinctively feel as though people aren't listening to them if they aren't looking at them while talking. This isn't so much an issue for guys, thus, in order for a guy to communicate the same amount of respect to a woman as he would another man, he must actually put in greater effort. In order to show EQUAL respect to a woman or a man, one must show respect in different ways. This applies to many things. Men and women prioritize differently, compartmentalize differently, make decisions through fundamentally different motivations that are influenced by biology, etc etc.

Feminism as a fight for equality is not needed since, in every way in which government can influence the situation, men and women are, in fact, equals. It tries to address a problem without knowing the true root of the problem. That root again being that men and women are very different from each other. I genuinely consider women to be equal to men but I don't think we're the exact same. I think if we try to reach some point where we all treat each other the exact same we're being foolish since I believe that would be insensitive to the different weaknesses of both men and women AND would prevent us from developing our biological gifts as men and women.

Geez. I wonder why that could be. Maybe let's hear what actual feminists with influence and power had to say.

“I feel that ‘man-hating’ is an honourable and viable political act, that the oppressed have a right to class-hatred against the class that is oppressing them.” ~Robin Morgan

“I want to see a man beaten to a bloody pulp with a high-heel shoved in his mouth, like an apple in the mouth of a pig.” ~Andrea Dworkin

“Rape is nothing more or less than a conscious process of intimidation by which all men keep all women in a state of fear” ~Susan Brownmiller

“The proportion of men must be reduced to and maintained at approximately 10% of the human race.” ~Sally Miller Gearhart

"I believe that women have a capacity for understanding and compassion which a man structurally does not have, does not have it because he cannot have it. He’s just incapable of it.” ~Barbara Jordan

“Compare victims’ reports of rape with women’s reports of sex. They look a lot alike….[T]he major distinction between intercourse (normal) and rape (abnormal) is that the normal happens so often that one cannot get anyone to see anything wrong with it.” ~Catherine MacKinnon

"As far as I’m concerned, men are the product of a damanged gene." ~Germaine Greer

“The nuclear family must be destroyed, and people must find better ways of living together…. Whatever its ultimate meaning, the break-up of families now is an objectively revolutionary process…. No woman should have to deny herself any opportunities because of her special responsibilities to her children… Families will be finally destroyed only when a revolutionary social and economic organization permits people’s needs for love and security to be met in ways that do not impose divisions of labor, or any external roles, at all.”

~Linda Gordon

“Men’s sexuality is mean and violent, and men so powerful that they can ‘reach WITHIN women to fuck/construct us from the inside out.’ Satan-like, men possess women, making their wicked fantasies and desires women’s own. A woman who has sex with a man, therefore, does so against her will, ‘even if she does not feel forced.’

~Judith Levine

Because feminism largely states that forces outside of women's forces are responsible for "inequality" (which may or may not exist) when it's mostly due to how women behave with each other. It's refuses to look at a woman's responsibility as a cause of said "inequalities."

Women largely value herd mentality/being same, not to imposing and putting other women (who are often ahead of the game down). Competition is considered bad.

Men on the other hand, befriend other men who are "better". They welcome competition and focus more of their energy on problem solving and improving themselves then tearing each other down. When you have one gender that focuses on problem solving and welcomes competition and another gender that values herd mentality and tear each other down, the other gender is going to be better.

In addition, men sound more confident ("I will solve that problem for you or you get your money back or We should do this...) vs a woman (I will do my best to get that done for you or I think we should...). Women are trained to soften their language from an early age to soften their language so that they don't sound "snobby". And this isn't from men, but from other women. Women are also at times, afraid or discouraged from improving themselves due to pressures from their friends or fear of being ostracized.

In all, women are largely responsible for said "inequality" and feminists (at least the ones of social media) refuse to see that.

btbc92 · Accepted Answer

As a woman I dislike feminism. And I can safely agree with a lot of men on this situation. Feminism has taught women that they don't need to respect their husbands, other male figures that has Authority in his head over their lives. Many of them see patriarchy as an enemy and then call it misogyny. It has got women to be out of the home, instead of having their place in the home. The whole agenda was about having a takeover and to destroy the natural order of man and humans as a whole. There is a reason why God has said that man is a head of a woman, and for those reasons that's what women really hate. They hate the fact that they feel that they have no control over it is truly understandable for the way how a lot of men treated females. You sadly have a lot of people in other countries that believe that a woman is beneath a man like she's dirt or that she's only good for sex and bearing children. All these things can easily have been fixed if people just stuck to the way God originally intended it. But since people chose to follow the world's way, and the moment that outside influences and the government had interfered with the boundaries of what we would call religious freedom and separation of church and state , is when all these problems really started. And it went far back into the 1800s in earlier before we had settlement into the Americas. That's what happens when you have political and religious corruption.

A small correction I could make is that many men dislike specifically modern feminism, not the whole idea as a whole. The current third or whichever wave is almost completely off the rails.

CoffeeWC · Answer

If you were a guy you'd likely hate it as well. Most feminists aren't men because they are being targets of people who victimize themselves to justify bringing men down.

hahahmm · Answer

1. Feminists say the want equality but they actually want special treatment: to be free from responsibility & consequences yet have all the benefits men who embrace responsibility have.

For example, the Weinstein metoo thing. Not one woman (I heard of) accused him of rape. They let the guy into their hotel rooms at 3AM knowing he was a total perv. But they also knew he could get them movie jobs worth millions. These women are hookers. Trying to get paid twice. There’s been many cases of women making false accusations against men & then getting a slap on the wrist or no punishment. Feminists aren’t marching to hold such women accountable.

2. Feminists say they can do anything a man can yet they don’t campaign to do away with alimony Or welfare for single moms.

3. Feminists say it’s her body & her right to have an abortion. But this also means the man has zero say in if he will be a father. Yet he is on the hook financially even if she literally stole his sperm out of a trash can. Coincidentally these women only get knocked up & pop one out when they think they can milk the guy for resources (I’m talking about the moms who are too lazy/special to have careers).

4. Feminists claim that their feelings matter but men aren’t entitled to feelings/opinions. If they don’t care about our feelings why should we care about theirs?

5. Men built all of the great civilizations yet feminists want to run an experiment to see if single moms and women acting like men can do as good/better. Men are right to doubt the ability of women to be constructive (yes, some individual women are).

6. Psychologists have shown that even feminists prefer sexist men in relationships. Sexists meaning he doesn’t kiss her azz & make life all about her. There is literally zero reason for a man to support feminism today.

Hønesty · Answer

The entire idea of feminism isn't really a bad thing. I understand why people are for it.

That being said, laws have been passed that make discrimination against women illegal, so the movement has now turned to making women SUPERIOR to men. Now I know not all people are like this in the movement, but the more vocal ones are, and they work to make men seem incompetent and abusive. Now dont get me wrong, some men are. But that is similar to saying all men are murderers because Jack the ripper was Male.

Another main issue with feminism in general is the biological nature of both men and women, and the role that our brains tell us to fulfill.
As guys, we open doors for women, help them when asked, and treat them differently, that is true.
BUT
If you do not want this from us, simply tell us and we will gladly stop. We do it to be nice, and to be gentlemen, so if you request we stop, then that is fine, we will gladly do so.

When it comes to what jobs men have... well that is biology again. Let me be clear firstly, WOMEN CAN BE STRONGER THAN MEN. But in GENERAL, that is not the case. Hence why men usually are the majority on physical jobs and manual labor that involves heavy lifting.

Another thing that people hate is the (especially recent) claim that men period shame women. I will tell you flat out, we have no idea what's happening. All we know is that you are bleeding and in pain. Anyone who shames you for a natural function is frankly an idiot and most men will probably agree with me on this point.

I hope this was helpful, and I just want to make clear that I dont mind the idea of equality, I just do not think that because of past mistakes, a new (and so far blameless) generation should be punished for it.

If you want to talk more feel free to PM me and I will talk (respectfully, please dont start getting mad out of nowhere (this is to men AND women))

toleratingcomplexity · Answer

I think the entire idea is sily. It (feminism) started as a contrary idiology to blatant sexism. Battles were fought and won for equality. But like all idiologies it is fundamentally flawed. So it seems to me that modern feminism looks to explain percieved inequalities through the same old lense. If this female makes less that this male at this job the only reason must be the evil patriarchy. 😱 Plus they are useful idiots for causing disention and division and rob people of their personal power. If you notice the themes of what are talked about in media the narritive is always division and has been increasingly since the nineties. Black against white. Male against female. Red vs Blue. And then if you walk through a grocery store in any part of the country there are people just going about their day. No one is racist or sexist in the real world. I took this picture in texas. I am on a motorcycle trip across america. I asked a simple question of the lady behind the counter and these two wonderful people gave me more info than I ever could have wanted. I have also met people of other races who were totally awful to me. Not rascism. Just assholes. Women who delighted in the fact that I was out of water and charged me an obscene amount of money for a basic nesessity. Not sexist, just bitches.

John_Doesnt · Answer

Certain types of feminism are the problem. Feminism is still needed in places like Muslim majority areas where women are actually oppressed or the bible belt where women still think they shouldn't work. But the type of feminism men are constantly seeing in the media is just whining and nit picking Women are complaining about things like the pockets of their jeans are too small compared to men. We see that and just assume that women will complain no matter what, so it's irritating.

Stories like this are what piss off men: interestingengineering.com/study-confirms-womens-pockets-are-too-small-for-smartphones

Anonymous · Answer

Modern feminism is a joke. They want special rights and treatment for women and seem to want men to suffer. They also act as though the only bad people in the world are men. They're not feminine in most cases and they act like that's something to be proud of.

Intersectionality has turned it into a circus where anyone who feels like an outcast is now a feminist. "Oh, and anyone who isn't white is feminist. Oh, and anyone who is willing to be subservient to women, people with higher melanin content, and those in the LGBT community can be feminists, but you must be below them." It's stupid.

Additionally, they claim to want equality, but they are against women receiving similar sentencing for crimes. They also act like women never commit domestic abuse, rape, murder, or other heinous crimes, but they do. It is just under reported and more lightly sentenced when it is reported (or, in the case of rape, unable to be prosecuted because laws are written in a way to exclude women from that). And we cannot forget the false allegations that happen all the time and ruin men's lives. How is that acceptable?

I'm all for equality. I truly am. If you want to go out and work, great! I hope you have an education, as it's attractive and a generally good idea. Voting? Yeah, go for it! But don't ask me to surrender rights for you, or give you special treatment.

there's more insanity to talk about, but this is already probably going to get flamed.

simplyaramdomgirl · Answer

That can be simply answered in a sentence. Feminism doesn't pursue equality. The laughable third-wave of Western feminism simply seeks to be superior than men, at this point we all have the same rights. It's time they take off their patriarchal oppression blinders and see the truth. Western women are not oppressed. In the past a woman couldn't vote at all, get a job, have a bank account or buy a house without the authorization of a man, among other things. All of which a modern-day woman can do all on her own. I don't support feminism because I don't believe that I am oppressed, because I am not. It's time to put facts before feelings, before we lose the last smidge of sanity that is left in today's society. Feminism was one of the greatest movements that have existed, however, how many more human rights can women get? At this point it's almost asking for extra rights.

I'm a woman and I hate modern feminism. It's a shitshow full of feminazis who hate men and don't want equality, but rather superiority. Or they want to whine about stupid things (manspreading for example) Not to say every feminist is bad, but the vocal feminazis are the ones you see and the ones who represent feminism, and if I was a guy, I'd hate it too.

EmbraceThePain · Answer

I think it all depends on the manifestation and practice of it then the paper definition. The paper definition, as I know it, implies equality between the sexes. Equality in this sense refers to fair treatment of men and women, and no discrimination due to sex when it comes to justice and a wide variety of opportunities. I agree with this definition of feminism, but perhaps the practice and manifestation of it by certain people or groups can change the meaning of feminism and how it’s seen by many.

NearlyNapping · Answer

Because feminism is stupid to the extreme. It's just more whiny leftist victim mentality. They have absolutely no clue what they are even fighting against. They create imaginary phantoms, then fight against it.

For the record, almost all the women I know hate feminism also, for the same reason.

This victim mentality affects a lot more than feminism. People need to stop playing the victim. Successful people don't play the victim. They don't constantly make excuses or point their finger at someone else.

Kit_Kat88 · Answer

I don’t like modern day feminism that much because it makes women entitled and allows them to constantly play the victim. They are encouraged to act trashy by sleeping around, and dressing vulgarly to express themselves as feminists. I think both genders should have equal rights, like equal employment opportunities.

Swat_ · Answer

They are against extreme feminism, the kind that fights against men, rather than fight for women.

The internet is filled with videos about these extreme feminists. Some people are more sensitive getting tunnel visioned that others. Some poeple believe all feminists are like this, those actively search for feminist posts to attack them.

There is a large stigma on feminism because of this. But I think it is important to note that these guys are NOT against womens' rights. They want equality, they don't want women to be benefitted more than men.

SjE78 · Answer

now are you referring to the feminism that is for women's rights or the crazy women's version of feminism... cos there are 2 different sorts

the one i can agree with, which is practical and done right and the one where certain fanatical feminists claim you can't do, say, or even be a guy, that all men are pieces of shit with no right to live
where they even attack women for doing things they choose to do in life but cos they conflict with their idea of feminism they are not considered worthy of being considered under their views cos they like to take part in what the crazy feminists deems as a male preference or man created ideal

even the normal feminists dont get on with those sorts of fanatics
and i've known a fair few tbh

MikeKachowski · Answer

Because people claim feminism and instead of promotion equality they just give all the things that are unfair and almost seemingly want women to have uneven benefits. For example, wage Gap is a thing but it's misleading. When you take out maternity leave it's virtually non-existent. Racial wage Gap is more of a thing than gender one. A lot of misleading stuff and it gets annoying when instead of relating to you and wanting the same it seems like special treatment. Then when something reasonable comes around you don't even wanna listen anymore

SkipStop · Answer

Feminism = Misandry
That's why. What kind of man would support a group or a movement that is made to go against him? Just look at what feminists do these days. Create man-hating terminologies such as Toxic Masculinity and fake ideologies like Mansplaining and Manspreading. These feminists don't even have elementary school knowledge of biology. They are violent against men and women who support men. They violently and verbally attack men who ask for help or try to raise awareness towards something that men suffer from. They create false statements such as the gender pay gap, women get abused more. commit suicide more and get raped on campus. Look at facts and you will see that every bit of crap that comes out of their mouth is a lie. Feminism is cancer and needs to be killed once and for all.

Freiburger · Answer

TBH it wasn't until I took Master's level gender studies class that I developed an understanding for and sympathy towards feminism. Until about three years ago, feminists for me were predominantly white middle class entitled women who wanted men to stop manspreading. They were writing cringeworthy pieces in the Guardian complaining about male privilege.

Then I took said gender studies class, read Judith Butler and several other authors talking about women in LDCs, inequality, FGM etc. It made more sense. Equally, how comparably small amounts of gender inequality in countries like Britain and France can effect LDCs is tremendous, via prioritisation of development aid.

Accelerate · Answer

Feminism is not about equality. It's not fair to girls or guys as it pushes women to all act or be a certain way and disregards or shames the problems men face.

It's honestly as simple as that, although I can further expand if you feel it's not clear what I mean by this. It's also not just men that hate it, many women do too. It would have a bigger, growing following if it was as virtuous as it makes itself out to be.

All in all, I want to say that men and women are indeed different. However, our differences are not something we should be ashamed of or minimize to an indistinguishable extent. They are important to our identity as men and women and should be accepted and appreciated even if we can't always perfectly stand in one another's shoes.

hellionthesagereborn · Answer

Well its fairly apparent that feminism does not want equality as they have actively fought against equality since its inception. The fact that feminism also claims men are the enemy and are to be blamed for literally everything while simultaneously infantilizing women by acting as if women cannot be held accountable for their own actions and behaviors, is also a reason why so many men hate feminism. Also, in addition to all that the fact that we can statistically and legally show that women have more rights then men and that men are the ones suffering in every single category with, as far as I can tell, no exception, while women have it better in all catagories, again, as far as I can tell, with out exception is yet another reason.

Nicolette777 · Answer

Because feminism has got a bad name. These days, people think it means hating men and thinking women are better. In my opinion, it’s not really equality when you protest for women’s rights but not for men’s rights (even if women have it worse)

Oh dear, you think men loved it in past when feminists advocated female education?

Men never welcomed feminism and they never will.

Because the movement is disingenuous.

What's the biggest thing we hear about feminism?

Equality, equality, equality, they just want equality.

Though, in many regards women have it much better than men. Many more men are homeless than women, yet do we hear "we need less homeless men," or even "we need more homeless women?" Nope!

The movement is about increasing the quality of life for women, it doesn't give a shit about men even though it pretends to in order to appear righteous and more legitimate.

My older brother likes to point out that men built this world. Men built everything and women didn't build anything. Now women are trying to take it all. He also pointed out how men and women lived back in the 1950s was way better. They didn't have the problems like what we have today. Men went to work and when they came home they just ate dinner, they didn't help the wife. The wife did everything in the house and took care of the kids. My brother thinks life was better back then. But now feminism messed everything up and ruined it for all the guys and made women into crazy bitches. My brother wants to go to Europe and marry a woman there because he believes they still have that old mentality.

SentientBrick · Answer

Plenty of women are good wife material now days. You could have sex and kids with many women in the 1950s as well it was just more frowned upon. You need money to actually support a family period. What were the "requirements" in the 1950s how are they diffrent to the average man now days? I'd argue women are still highly valued it just that men are not as valued or respected as they were in the 1950s (thanks 3rd wave feminism). I do agree mens loss of purpous and sense responsibility has resulted in a terrible increase in depression and suicide. I'm at a loss as to how we fix such a problem. The media and SJWs seem to revel in or at least not care about this issue. They also seem quite effective in supressing or stopping any changes that might help men who are struggling.

MackToday · Answer

Because it isn't feminism, it's cultural Marxism. It is intended to redistribute social power from supposed oppressors to the supposedly oppressed. This is accomplished by discriminating against the oppressor class. Women get sucked into the class warfare narrative without realizing it's true source as it's disguised by the term "feminism" rather than Marxism. If you want to know what is wrong, listen to this when you're driving or something.
It will give you a feel for the warped ideology at work here and why it is having such a bad effect.

Browneye57 · Answer

Because there is nothing there that serves them. Third wave feminism is about hating men, gaining power and control over them. The majority of both genders just isn't buying it, don't agree or support it. In the beginning it was all fine, everybody was for that, voting, equal pay, opportunity, choices, that's all great. When it got to 'we don't need no stinkin' men' then it failed. Some women tend to go to extremes. We simply avoid them. They have cats. Or horses, depending on how rich they are. LOL

lucasnabizada · Answer

Why do so many women hate men? That's the real question.
An actual answer to your question is that 3d wave feminism is purely and simply useless in most respects. If you can name me a single right afforded to men that isn't afforded to women in the west in 2019 point it to me and good luck.
As for the rest a quasi totality of men believe that women have the right to express themselves, have the right to vote, the right to do as they like with their lives. But it's not what feminism stands for today and by the way 40% of women in the world today are not ready to call themselves feminists. Modern feminism wants to see equality of outcome regardless of an existing equality of opportunity. It victimizes women by telling them they are still oppressed and also strive on killing the feminine image and encouraging women to hate men and everything that males stand for.

SirRexington · Answer

We hate feminists, not necessarily feminism as a concept. But when we think of feminism we of feminists. And when we think if feminists we invision (rightfully so) a bitchy woman complaining about how "oppressed" she is even though she literally has a better life than most people both make or female. Its rare to find a low income feminist. They are usually middle class whores who whine about the way men sit and the temperature of the office they work at instead of the fact that there is a homeless epidemic in this country (predominantly men) and a suicide rate that's steadily increasing. A suicide rate also dominated by men.

Feminism isn't about equality. It's about entitlement and getting an excuse for acting like a cunt. Now to clarify, we are all entitled to basic things but these women have that already and more. Many in America don't, their voices get ignored while these privileged bitches scream bloody murder about the non-existent patriarchy.

Anonymous · Answer

Based on the comments I've seen on here, some men feel entitled to a standard of gender expression and gender roles that has been replaced and no longer applies. They dont view their outdated standard as unfair, marginalizing, or misogynistic, and they wouldn't hurt women if they understood that is what their views are doing, but that's the crux of the point: they dont understand.

We are characters, not props. Without even realizing it, so many sexually frustrated young men and old fashioned old men fundamentally misunderstand that women are people!

megaman242 · Answer

A true femeninst fight for equal rights. But many do it to hate men, and many do it and are hypocrite. Like a couple with a kid breaks up but 9 out of 10 times the mother gets the full rights to the kids even if the father is fully capable and interested in having the kids. That's not equal. Even a 50/50 setup is not even truly 50/50 but 49/51 where the mother have the 51. Also go to a woman's public toilet and there is a changing room for the kid, go to a men's and there is not. Parental leave is in the favour for the woman and quite often not the man. A femeninst would fight for the right for men to have the same rights when it come to kids. A man hater would not care and dare to call them self a femeninst. Men to get abused and raped and mistreated, not just woman. A true femeninst know that.

grega239 · Answer

Where to begin.
Feminists constantly claim that women don't have equal rights. They do and then some.
Not a single feminist can point out a right women don't have but men do.
Their attempt to rewrite history , making it seem as if women were the eternal victims of men, while ignoring the millions and millions of men that were sacrificed in wars, massacred in genocides, and died to get us to where we are today.
"Teach men not to rape" was a thing. As if men aren't constantly told to never put hands on a woman from our infancy.
Changing language to erase word that have man/men in them ( manpower, policeman, fireman, etc).
Constantly being told we have male privilage , usually by women who have had better education and are now sitting in nice air-conditioned offices complaining how hard they have it.

Men sitting with their legs slightly apart is oppressive , explaining something to a woman is oppressive, earning more money bcs we work longer hours is oppressive and so on

Feminism is in the past, nowadays we need equalism. Woman have the same rights as men and the same possibilities. But today's feminism is feminacism, because it created such terms as menspreading for example which is absurd. And they want more jobs in offices but not in the building industrie for example. They talk about women being raped but if a man is being raped it is funny and no problem with that. They talk about women being homeless but the other 80% of homeless man remains unmentioned. I am not hating women I am just saying we need to think and not just hate on the other sex.

The6ix · Answer

If feminism is about equality why would they completely bash men as if we are all placed into the same category with the same mindset because we were born with a pair of testicles and a dick? Should I state all women are the same then? Does not make sense, right? I've seen girls who are feminists bash other women as well who are there so-called "friends". Should men create a new term called menism as this new movement for minority males in North America and Europe?

I think it's getting out of hand with the "ism-based" ideologies we use today. I support women with wanting to break down doors and pave their own way, women should get the same pay as men and not have social stigmas attached to them. Women should be valued and respected in the work place and outside the work place. This is coming from a guy who does not believe in feminism but will still respect women to be treated fairly and if someone cannot comprehend that simple answer, then I don't know what else to say.

Girls comprise the vast majority of college students, yet colleges still have women's centers, special programs, and dedicated scholarships for women. Meanwhile, guys have higher rates of suicide, depression, and incarceration. Yet nobody seems to care about whether guys live or die.

Well basically because of double standards. And secondly, when you call a hard working man pig by saying all men are pigs and all. Thirdly, most of these feminist girls I know are some of the saddest lot. They claim to want equality but all they want is no rules, no nothing to stop them including when they break the law which is implemented on both genders like cutting in line to get ahead, not lifting their own weight just after giving a lecture on how women are superior to men and destroying relationships between men and women by trying to poison their other female friends as well. List is in exhaustive. Seen many fakers to be honest

Feminism is hypocrite bullshit and man hating

SugarSkullCat · Answer

I think it's because feminism is creating a gap between both genders and not making them equal in harmony.

It's not feminism many men dislike, the idea of equality of opportunity, voting rights, income, etc are ideas which I wholeheartedly support and most other men do too, but the issue is modern feminism, like whinging over the term "mansize tissues" 🤦‍♂️ this modern form of feminism is whats pathetic, there are girls in the third world that don't have access to education, rape and sexual assault is a big issue, domestic violence (perpetrators both men and women), but they're complaining about the fact a box of tissues has "mansize" written on them 🤨🤯 that's the issue

NoToriousROB · Answer

Because feminism became a movement for hating men and degrading their masculinity to make them more woman than man. The movement has become unequal. It has made women become miserable and move away from their nature, which conceive a child and be a loving wife. The movement has made women become more masculine, which is totally unattractive to men. No man with a right mind want a woman that sleeps around or aborts. Only guys with no foundation or principles would want to date a woman and or follow feminism.

There are too many Male hating extremists in the feminism community but they are not actually feminists since they are not helping for gender equality.
They are what is known as feminazi since all they do is attack men and shout saying women are the superior gender and males/men/Cis-males are horrible garbage of a gender and sometimes attack them physically or verbally, in the same way a nazi would say a the germans are the superior race, and that the jews are garbage and attack them.
Sadly the feminazis stick out more compared to the good the feminism community does so the feminazi community tends to be the descriptor for the feminism community

Sensmind · Answer

I will widen this out a bit - I am all for egalitarianism so technically support all groups but I will not condone any group that wants to overtake another group especially at expense of other group. I am a "We all adhere to a minimum acceptable standard for all and our goal is to raise that minimum standard"
So whether you are a white male or a black woman, I don't care I will hold you to same standards.

Because modern feminism doesn't Express equality. But equity. And equity is dangerous to society. Also most women don't agree on what feminism means. Most feminists don't agree with what it means. So an ideology that can say it's for equality but really is for other things, like applauding when women harm men. Rubs people the wrong way

CarpetDenim · Answer

I’m a woman that hates feminism—it’s not just the guys lol. Feminism stopped being about equality ages ago and became an ideology that doesn’t care about men’s issues and only cares about putting women at the top of the world while simultaneously bringing down men and antagonizing them for made-up microaggressions.

Psynax · Answer

Confusion between feminism and feminazi. That's probably why.

There's a lot of women that claim themselves to be feminism but in reality, they're feminazi who want to push down men so they're the superior and the men should be the slaves. Sort of revenge of what other men have done in the past.

Tanisha69 · Answer

I'm a woman and I can barely stand feminists. Or I should say the certain kind of feminist that give the rest a bad name. I know... I know "not ALL feminists"... but there are enough to ruin it for the rest of us.

Smiley_face101 · Answer

I think sometimes its just too radical.
I am all for equallity but I dont want to get the job since I am a girl and they had to. I want the job since I am good enough as a person.
I mean I just want to be me.

D) Because many of them can't tell the difference between feminism and femi-nazism.

Smart men know that fat, old and ugly bitches who complain about nonsense are not feminists, they are femi-nazis (typically rich and privileged hags).

VikingWarLord · Answer

I don't hate Feminism, I'm your original Feminist, what I hate is that women don't want equality they want SUPERIORITY! They want their cake and to eat it too. They want all the luxuries of equality when it suits them, but also the traditional aspects of having their dinners paid for when it doesn't suit them.

bangyourhead · Answer

Because feminism has changed. It started out noble - giving women equal rights - but now that those goals are accomplished, they've become increasingly more radical, leftist and man hating. They're more about controlling men and destroying them than lifting women up

naijagurl · Answer

Most guys don’t hate feminism itself, they hate what it has become. Initially feminism was very much needed because there was a time when women truly did not have equal rights. Nowadays although feminism does still address important issues, there is also an overwhelmingly large group of people that use the movement as a way to victimize men and complain about issues that aren’t really there. The word feminism has basically lost all meaning.

normalice · Answer

My guess is social media is the driving force behind this. The few people who are genuinely opposed to paying women equally try to bury feminism in a whole army of straw man versions of feminism that are attacked ruthlessly by sexually frustrated men.
