You know, the post you liked described how you could support something that you don't even stand for, it was a very narrow view on the subject. If you support the movement, you support everything the movement stands for. Why would you join feministic movement to support something the feministic movement doesn't support, instead of joining a movement that supports the same things you do. The more diverse the movement is, the less it is driving the things you support (because of people have differing interests). If you join a movement to support things the movement doesn't support, it is still you alone supporting the things, only the difference is, that now you support it in the inside instead being on the outside. |
Well, this is from someone who do identify as a feminist and view feminism as something that do support men as well. I just think more could be achieved in the long run by supporting feminism, a movement that has grown big enough to have the power to change. And because of how big feminism is I think more diversity would be a positive. It would also make it a whole lot harder for the radicals to get support for their men are evil-narrative if more men at the very least stood up for feminism. Plenty of men's issues are rooted in the very traditional gender roles that feminism is combating so I think it would make sense to work together.
