What bothers me the most about feminism are the women who don't identify themselves as feminists, but cherry pick the bits and pieces that benefit them, often remaining non-vocal about those components.
I start to question at what point is the average women also considered or labeled a feminist too? Since women are clearly more emotional than logical, it's doubtful that any large number of women will ever be standing up for men's rights.
If someone said:"The USA now offering free pussy (pick from hundreds of decent options), easy high paying employment, and everything else you can't fail at because the government will take care of all that," and you just couldn't "fail" in life based on fulfilling the lowest levels on-up of Maslow's Chart, would you want it to change?
Maybe if you were logical and gave a shit about anyone other than yourself. But are women logical? Nope. I think it'll get worse before better by far, and that eventually a grid-lock is the best we can hope for, for the masses in my lifetime. We would have to drastically decrease the labor force of females to see a significant change.
Most women can get on board with everything about feminism that they perceive as a benefit to themselves. Things such as the gender wage gap myth, rape hysteria which includes being able to retroactively rescind consent, creation of jobs for women in science field just for the sake of having more women, etc.
Oh but when it comes to "splitting the check," or men being chivalrous/gentlemanly to woman just because they are women, or women signing up for the selective service act, lets just keep these facets the same.
But when it comes to the hard truths, most feminists don't want anything to do with it. They play the victim card in pretty much every facet of life so they can take the easy way out.
The quintessential difference between men and women is that the man looks at the harsh realities of life and prepares himself for it. The core tenants of this forum are self improvement, which simultaneously leads to a happier life and more women/bangs. It's a microcosm of what any happy man must do to be happy: constantly improve himself.
Women on the other hand? They look at the harsh realities of life, and play the victim card until they cover them up.
The ugly girl that has trouble getting the date with a quality guy? Instead of going to the gym and losing 50 lbs, she goes on the internet and complains about misogynist men, and how her outward appearance doesn't determine her value as a human being. She thinks that she deserves the high SMV guy even though she's a fat piece of shit, and she'll complain about it on tinder/instagram. And then in every other aspect of life that is not up to her own ridiculous standards, the shortcomings are due to "men being pigs" but not her sense of entitlement and hesitation to work hard at all in anything.
