Thank you for proving my point. Feminism can not solve the issues facing men and boys. And critique of feminism is not misogyny.
I’m far from alone. I understand that folks have been taught that any critique of feminism is somehow on par with misogyny.
Half of the posters here have argued that feminism is already solving the issues facing men and boys and half have argued that feminism by design is not responsible for these issues. The cognitive dissonance that allows folks to hold both ideas in their minds at the same time is very real, and shows a major fault of feminism by itself, namely, that feminism and feminists are unaware of both the problems they are trying to solve, as well as the problems they are unable to solve.
Question everything. Otherwise you’re in the same rabbit hole as these young men in the article, just on the other side of the fence.
Dude I didn’t prove shit. I don’t understand how saying “men and boys need help” is a critique of feminism.
I know a lot of people are suggesting to address these things through “feminism” and that these problems belong to the “patriarchy”. But fundamentally what they mean is use a leftist approach to deal with obstacles affecting you caused by the existing hierarchy.
They’re saying that because what no one wants is another alpha male Jordan Peterson/Enon Musk style bullshit peddler claiming that men have been harmed by feminism and will be better off if we just restore the patriarchy and become “alpha” or whatever lingo they’re using these days. That might be superficially true, but oppressing others isn’t the way to get ahead.
It’s starting to become obvious which side you’re learning on, but hopefully you’ll come over and help fight for men and boys issues in a way that improves society instead of harming it.
I didn’t prove shit either. I think we’re on the same page.
If men have been harmed by feminism I think as men and as advocates for men and boys we would need to listen to the hypothesis and then look at it and try to solve the problem rather than worry about whose fault it is, whoever’s fault it is is less important in my opinion than trying to understand if there is a problem which seems to be true and then to go on and try to identify the problem and find the cause.
I don’t believe that many phrases that are helpful to feminist arguments and causes for women and girls that genuinely help them are as helpful when we are specifically talking about helping men and boys.
Yes, patriarchy of the 1% is probably not the best phrase.

You keep saying “men have been harmed by feminism” and I couldn’t agree with you less.
Oh well I guess, lol. Good luck to you
