Re: Misandry... Oh dear.

The thing about that vocal minority though, is that they're a nebulous, unassociated group of individuals who happen to be jerks. Every group is going to have them, nobody can do much other than call them out on their bullshit, because there is no way to make them admit that what they're doing is in fact anti-feminist.

But at the end of the day, they will still ultimately be *individuals* who enact harm to other on an individual level, inside of a specific context

I overgeneralize about the positive aspects of feminism not because I believe every feminist is a saint, but because that most feminists truly do just want to make the world a better place. So I see no reason to let what evens out to a very small group act as a strawman to represent the much larger, well-intended whole.

This.

It's not like 'feminist' is a protected term. Anyone can self-label that way.

We'll have a problem if activists, campaigners, advocacy groups and writers start coming together under the term to organise against men's rights. But frankly I don't think we need to put that high on the list of impending crises. It just isn't where the energy and the work is, and I don't think it ever has been.
