When someone comes out and says they are standing for equality between genders and then you slam them and compare them to someone who is spreading hate speech
How am I supposed to tell the difference if all they say is "We're about equality between the sexes"?
Emma Watson said the same thing yet she's a spokesperson for an organization that only wants men to support women's issues (#heforshe)
Mary Koss erased male victims of female rape from existence as a researcher, recommending others not call what happened to them rape. She wrote for feminist papers and received no opposition from feminists when it happened.
Feminist special interest groups endorsed special programs for girls struggling in school when research showed BOTH genders were having troubles back then. Anytime someone points out boys struggling in education, these very same special interest groups try to brush it off as "Only MINORITY boys. White boys are doing just fine".
Feminist groups lobbied for The Duluth Model of Domestic Violence and Primary Aggressor Laws where men are to be arrested in a domestic violence situation even if it turns out THEY are the victims.
"I'm for equality between the sexes" = Harassing a scientist into making a public apology for a shirt he wore
"I'm for equality between the sexes" = Shaming two tech workers at a conference on Twitter.com into being fired from their jobs over a "Dongle Joke" shared privately that was overheard.
"I'm for equality between the sexes" = Treat every white man as if his problems don't matter compared to women since white men rule the world.
"I'm for equality between the sexes" = Complaining about men spreading their legs on public transit.
"I'm for equality between the sexes" = Propping up a false rape accussor who carries a mattress around as symbolic of her injustice as an example of how hard done female rape victims are.
Get the point?
So I'm practically desensitized at this point by you simply telling me "You're for equality between the sexes". I look at actions done in the name of the movement, not what the movement SAYS they are about. I also look at actions done in the name of the movement that no one has bothered to come out against as well.
"I'm not ok with a group of women pretending to be feminists so they can hate and attack men."
If feminism is about "Equality between the sexes", they're not pretending. They ARE feminists according to you. You set the bar there, they match it.
