Why are poeple on this site so obessed with feminists?
Which is why the positions of highest power, pay, and influence are almost all held by women.
Oh, wait...
Do tell. What words and actions of 'the majority of feminists' demonstrate that they aren't in favor of equality?
ad-hominem. That's about on the level of 'women of quality aren't interested in the vote.'
wrt. penis size, women in general don't seem to be as interested in relative size as men are. At least, I don't think I hear women talking about it as much as I hear men talking about it.
Oh, wait...
What percentage of men hold those positions?
What percentage of murder victims are men? Suicides? Homeless? Unemployed?
How about the increase in men dropping out of high school, or the fact that only 38% of US university students are men?
How about the fact that men receive, on average, 40% longer sentences for committing the same crimes as women?
And so on and so forth.
Society is far more than those at the very top (and the very bottom too, of course), yet it suits the feminist narrative to ignore the suffering of men, lumping us all in with the 'haves' when the majority of us are 'have-nots', 'have-littles' or 'have-just-about-enoughs'.
It's not beneficial to complain about how good or bad one gender has it in our society, we should deal with every case on its individual merits, irrespective of gender.

Because the example I quoted is what, uncommon? It's near ubiquitous in my experience. Let's be honest, whatever examples I did provide would be dismissed as not being "real feminists". I will, however, refer you to the very first quote in this post, as well as my response, and ask you to consider whether or not the plight of both men and women is equally important to you.
When it becomes common to encounter feminists who pursue empowerment of women without disregarding or omitting the issues faced by men, I might be willing to believe that feminism is about equality. Likewise, I'd be more accepting of feminism as a concept if I could find anything but a minority that approach inequality from an individual perspective rather than focusing on one gender as a collective.

Only if you misunderstand what I wrote, which you seem to have. Unless you're actually saying that all feminists are women with high self-esteem and intelligence?

Hahaha, like that will ever happen. Society never operates on an individual basis on any subject or issue.
That's nothing by empty idealism... the morality of slaves.

Well that's the problem right there.

Otaku, do you honestly believe every damn thing you read or see on the internet? Rational people do not think things like the people in those images. I'm an equalist myself, leaning towards a feminist (mostly because women have been oppressed since the dawn of time the majority of the time).
The reason why feminism is more major topic nowadays is because of this "men's rights" crap that is going on. If these people following that stupid "movement" would only realize that women want to be treated equally (respected at the same level, have the same salary as everyone else, etc) and not have special treatment. We're all human, no matter what our gender is.

Otaku, listen to me, the rational (I'm bolding it so you can read it) people do not believe that crap. Anyone can be raped, male or female. If they are excluding them from spreading awareness because of their gender, they are radicals and not to be taken seriously. They are the vocal minority. Real feminists do not see one gender better than the other, they see both genders as equal and thus would be like to treated equally.
You seriously need to stop believing some of this stupid s**t on the internet that is out there.

Those relationships have ended, yes? And are you currently in a happy relationship with a woman?
What are you suggesting will never happen?
Hence my rejection of claims that feminists pursue equality. They're just one of many special interests groups that advocate for their chosen team. There are some individual feminists whose views are well-reasoned, balanced and logical. As a collective, though, the reverse is true.
You raised the subject of societal morality, I'm interested only in personal morality. If this was intended as an argument against my post, you've misfired spectacularly. As for what constitutes 'the morality of slaves', I suggest you pick up any religious text and start reading. Likewise, I invite you to consider viewers of jingoistic news stations and pretty much anyone who pledges allegiance to a piece of fabric before they're old enough to understand what it represents.
I am a man and a feminist.
Any man who does not call himself a feminist is not a man who seeks justice and an end to discrimination against women without just cause.
A moral and just man will label himself a feminist and do what he can to move the world to equality for all.
