(Anonymous) 2015-03-16 12:53 am (UTC)(link)I think my second comment was really badly worded. I am aware of how the partriarchy damages men and I do think that those things you mentioned are worth fighting against. I think most of the disadvataged men have, are still directly linked to misogyny though. So I guess I see the issue as more unidirectional than you. But that doesn't mean I think we shouldn't try to fight these problems.
The thing is, though, that most of these problems for men exist, because of gendersterotypes (e.g. men getting raped is a joke, because ~real men are strong). My problem with the first comment wasn't that it mentioned how men are negatively affected by the partriarchy (they are and we should work against it). My issue is that it stated most feminists "want all the privilege but want to do none of the work". Which implies there is some work men do, that makes them inherently deserving of that privilege and also ignored the fact that the people that are actually trying to abolish genderroles (and therefore most of the problems men face because of sexism) are (mostly) feminists.
My comments were badly worded though and for that I apologize. I am just really tired of the idea that women somehow have to earn equality, which is total bullshit. Anyway, thanks for you reply.
