this being gender studies, obviously some male users do - but when I call those users on it, they openly admit they are not MRAs. Do feminists not see these questions and answers, or are they just trying to lie and discredit MRAs without any evidence ? MRA just seems to mean misogynist to these .. people. No, Eva, they do not. Inferior in what way ? in what possible way are women inferior ? tell me - I honestly don't know. Lolly - Im not a fan feminism - I hold my hands up to that.. lol but I don't say anything against women. ever. but Im often accused of doing so.

MRAs rant about how evil and inferior feminists are - it seems they think we control the police an judges and all the politicians so everything is all OUR fault - when all most of us want is just fairness - and an even playing field so everything is not more difficult for us than it is for your typical man. When people are against equal rights for women they are against women in my book.
Other Answers:
- no. the mra posts i've read deal with the fair treatment of dudes in the courts and legal system. you must have been reading posts from prepubescent kids.
- Yes. You don't, and it hasn't gone without notice. You just rant about how society absolutely hates men and you have an unhealthy fixation on feminism.
I get the impression you don't like yourself very much. - this is probably one of the strongest statements against feminism that i have ever heard anyone say.
From WOody:
"Don't know or care where it came from - I just hope it f**ks off soon."
rofl - I can honestly say I have never seen you call out any guys here for the things they say about women. Not saying you haven't but i have never seen it.
I have seen you agree with many of them, however.
You have sent me enough wierd hate mail to ensure that you have done as much to discredit the MRM as any other sexist man on this site, in my eyes. - I rant about how evil and inferior women are? I don't think so. There's misogyny in the MRM, just as there's misandry in feminism. Not inherently, but if people were really just striving for fair treatment in and of itself, they'd give equalism a shot.
- I claimed NOT to be a "feminist", but this forum labels me as such. I can live with it, because, quite frankly, internet men mean nothing to me.
You are on this forum enough to see most the rants, blaming, complaining are from MRAs...
EDIT : You always come on this forum with your rants on single mothers, like women have some legislation on making men stay and be fathers. Women and children CAN'T make a man BE a dad. - MRAs rant about how evil and inferior feminists are - it seems they think we control the police an judges and all the politicians so everything is all OUR fault - when all most of us want is just fairness - and an even playing field so everything is not more difficult for us than it is for your typical man.
When people are against equal rights for women they are against women in my book. - Woody ... yes, many MRAs do rant about how women are evil and inferior.
They might not even use the word "evil" or the word "inferior" but that is what many of them believe. They just couch it in more democratic language and speak about men's rights appropriating language from the civil rights movement, etc.
People can smell that one, like a fart in a parked car with the windows rolled up on a summer's day.
What they want is to continue to preserve what they consider their own natural rights over women and their offspring. Questioning a man's natural advantage over a woman of his choice by legislating against it, is like an assault on masculinity.
I am sorry but it is true. - Yes I am guilty of assuming that all the misogynists were MRA's. I know that you are not a misogynist. I was never a feminist before I started coming to GS but MRAs and misogynists assumed I was because I defended feminism and my gender. I can't keep track of all the users who identify as MRA or not so don't blame me if I miss Incubus or whoever saying they are not MRA they just despise woman
- I'm one of the users you speak of. I've always said I'm no MRA. MRAs have respect for women, they just want rights for themselves too. I'm not an MRA, I'm a misogynist.
I think feminists, being mostly made up of women, and therefore, being extremely childish, tend to lump all opposing views into one category. I've noticed this here, with the way women complain that if they get a job MRAs say they aren't family-oriented, yet if they don't get a job MRAs accuse them of being gold diggers. No, if they have a job, it's anti-feminists who say they aren't family-oriented enough, and if they don't have a job, it's MRAs who accuse them of being gold diggers. MRAs and anti-feminists have two completely different sets of views.
The funny thing is it's these same childish feminists who then turn around and give the "Just because one feminist said that doesn't mean it's what all feminists believe," line. Except when they use that, they're almost always talking about something a prominent member of the feminist movement has said, whereas with us, it's just something some random MRA said online.
Feminists are hardly a model for self reflection. - Jeez Woody, you sound like a kid who got his hand caught in the cookie jar. If I didn't know better, even I (an MRA supporter) would think the MRA is misogynist.
