Did Feminism All Begin Because Some Iresponsible Guy Let His Wife Out Of The Kitchen

As a male feminist, was there a moment you realized you had to get on board and support women’s rights?

I'm ashamed to admit that until I had my daughters I was part of the silent masses, ignorantly believing that sexism and racism had been defeated, and what little vestiges were visible to me were nothing of consequence.I was wrong, so very, very wrong.After my first daughter I started to notice how heavily society genders things. Scantily clad women everywhere in advertising, usually next to male athletes or suave business types in sharp suits. That is when the concept that women are regarded as accessories to some men started to creep in.I began to recognise it in news articles. A woman was drunk at a club and got raped - the comments would be full of vile crap like “she deserved it” or “if she dressed better it wouldn't have happened” - as if men don't get drunk when they go out partying.Then I got a promotion at work and took over a team of about a dozen telecommunications switching engineers, half of whom were women. Come pay review time it was shocking. The women were universally on about 80% of the pay of their male colleagues; tenure and experience weren't being recognised. I wasn't permitted to fix the discrepancies by the company, and I leveled it off over three years by fighting for a bigger kitty, giving the men the bare minimum and then bringing the women up to speed. Thankfully no one figured it out, because I'm pretty sure it would have pissed some people off.The little stuff I was seeing became big stuff to me. I had an epiphany; if the feminists were right about the things I'd noticed, that meant they were likely right about the stuff I still hadn't noticed.The next logical step was to conclude that the same principles applied to racism and LGBTQI+ discrimination - in essence unless you're a target you're ignorant of what people who are targets go through… and if you're serious about avoiding behaving that way, you need to take people at face value when they tell you about their experiences.You can’t just default to saying stuff like “she provoked that rapist”, “the cop probably feared for his life”, “being gay is a choice” if you truly care about not being a bigot.And the biggest, most humbling lesson that feminism taught me is that I barely know anything about this stuff.Now with three daughters I'm more mindful of it than ever before. It's just a shame I had to take the long way around to reach this point.

Would life be better without women?

Men can complain all they want about women, but at the end of the day. We would be absolutely hopeless without them.Simple example.Bachelor’s fridge,Looks great doesn’t it… Soooo... What are you gonna eat when the beer, hot dogs and cheese is finished???Lets compare this to a Fridge stocked by a woman.You can face the apocalypse with that for crying out loud!!Then there’s also the fact that women are:Sensible (They know that it’s a bad idea to jump of the roof and try to combat roll)Supportive (They are willing to hold your hand when your football team loses even if they don’t get the game. When have you ever seen a man support his wife after she complains that Oprah retired from TV)Caring (When men get a cold, we act like it’s stage 4 Brain and Stomach Cancer and we can’t even lift our heads. Only a woman can look after a being that pitiful.)Beautiful (If I was a woman, I would be lesbian. Seriously woman have so much going for them from them in the looks department: Legs; bum; stomach; lower back with dimples; eyes; lips; breasts. Men are gross and if we know we don’t have to impress a girl in the vicinity, we act like cave men.)Nurturing (Even if we could create children without women, they would not last long because men will do “what is necessary for the child to survive”. A woman will sacrifice whatever she can “so her child can have a great life”.)The list goes on forever but just those 5 points show me that most of the male population would die out within a year of woman leaving earth.PS. This was a gross generalisation, portraying the flaws of men and not to be taken as Newton’s 4th Law. Same goes for the comments about women. I know many dad’s do a great job of looking after themselves and their family but many more moms do that without anyone ever noticing them.

Why do feminists believe that the patriarchy harms men?

Well, because that's true. In feminist modern World , patriarchy Killing men.‘He' can't cry out loud in public even if he wants too. Because men don't cry like a woman. Men don't vent out there emotions frequently which results in increased heart rate in men. One study proves if man express his feelings often ,his chances of addiction to drugs will reduce 60% .‘She' can wear any cloths from black to blue , shirt to jeans anything it is acceptable in feminist World. ‘He' can't wear saree , Salwar suit even if they want too ; ) . ‘Pink' is not a muscular colour. so, no ' pink ' pant or shirt please!‘She' can work in every profession from Pilot to teacher . Men can't be a baby sitter , receptionist, nurse or even primary school teacher .Men created boundary of genders , feminist broke that boundaries and let women enter there. But, men are still trapped in there own boundaries.Women reports harrassment and rape cases . Everyone supports it. Men hardly speak there harrassment cases, even if they do they become subject of joke in the society.She can drive bullet and Harley Davidson . He feel ashamed of scooty in society.She can be housewife or working women too. He can't be house husband ( thats not even a word! ) .She can say She likes big penis ,on National television show. He can't say, he like to see how she moves on the same show. She was example of women empowerment and he is pevert.If she behaves 'Manly' , she is tomboy . She is dashing and acceptable. If man behaves ' womanly' it is gross and degrading . No one take him seriously.If you are a working woman traveling through Government buses . Well , your place is reserved even if , it is crowded .You may ask to vacate him ladies reserved seat. If you are a man in 30’s ill and tired , Sorry! there is no guarantee of seat for you. You can't even ask for it. Your ‘Man' ners Stops you!Case 1: She divorced him.Reason- He was expecting her to be housewife and do house chores. People blamed him .Case 2: She divorced him.Reason-He left his job and dicided to be at home working on his art. He asked her to be bread earner.People blamed him for being irresponsible husband.Women have entered in man's world . They have captured every portion of it. It is time for man to break his bubble of patriarchy so,he can enjoy equal rights and responsibilities.Accept the feminism.Reject the feminazi.Support man's right.Forget patriarchy.Period.

Despite our attempts to re-educate them, why do these men still think that feminism is ALL about man hating?

Is it because they want it to be? Are they the ones who need to feel like victims?

It seems that no matter how many times we tell them otherwise, they still want to believe that all feminists hate men. I would love to see any proof that ALL feminists are man-haters. That's like saying that all men are stupid, or all men are dirty, or all men are insensitive jerks, or all men are pigs. It's just not true.

Many of the men I'm talking about say that they don't hate women; they just hate feminists. Why is it, then, that they post such questions as these:
