If feminism was all about equality then we would not have ended up with laws that favour women over men e.g. in divorce. Some women say: ‘If you think you don’t have equality then start a men’s movement’. Fine. So should men make the same mistakes that the feminism made i.e. go for selfish gains, promoting men and putting down women? Or should we go for equality, promoting the needs of both men and women?
My worst nightmare is a men’s movement that apes the radical feminists, with slogans like ‘All women make false rape accusations’ etc. Far better that, for example, men should campaign for fair treatment of men accused of rape in tandem with campaigning for improved methods of finding and convicting actual rapists. In short, should masculists support women’s rights?
