Why are we continuing to use biased language?

    Non feminist male communities tend to devolve into misogynistic places. What exactly is your problem with feminism, except the name?

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feminism

      “Feminism holds the position that societies prioritize the male point of view and that women are treated unjustly in these societies.”

      It’s not about equality if it favors one sex over the other.

      You never see feminists complaining about the draft or female employment in sanitation industries, for example.

      Trying to conflate “feminism” with “equality among the sexes” is just a subversive tactic used by feminists to fool men into thinking they care about injustices towards men.

      They don’t. In fact, most of them proudly laugh if anyone even mentions something along the lines of “injustices towards men.”

        Sure. From my point of view man and women both struggle from the same societal structures, be it in quite different ways. Feminism addressees those societal structures from the perspective of women and in more recent times other marginalized groups. While sure it’s not a lens specifically developed to view male issues, for me personally it’s been a helpful tool to empathize with women in general and to question societal or interpersonal structures (like man has to be the provider for the family or what the hell is family anyway?). You have a rather antagonistic view on feminism, maybe based on your own negative experiences or maybe influenced by certain media bubbles. So you might not find the discussions in this community very helpful.

        Oh look, he’s 95% of the way to the general incel stuff. Say “family court” next!

        I’m interested in discussing men’s issues with feminists. I don’t have nearly as much interest in hearing the view points of anti-feminists. Red pill and MRA spaces are decidedly boring because anti-feminists have taken over the discourse.

        In short, I support labeling this a feminist community.
