It's a common theme when it comes to certain people in most majorities that they misunderstand equality for dominance, you'll find people like that in every majority. It's just a complete and utter lack of understanding and empathy, essentially because they've deluded themselves into thinking that equality is a thing because they don't suffer any kind of discrimination so it's not a thing for anyone else either. They'll look at things like Feminism, pride and LGBT, Black Lives Matters etc as tipping the scales against them because they just don't understand discrimination because they have never experienced it.

Their idea of equality for those kinds of people is having a majorityand them being that majority so they find the idea of actual equality to be nothing more than an attack on them when it's just balancing the scales that have always been tipped in their favour.

You think most women haven’t experienced discrimination - I have on several occasions. It always has been and still is to a degree a part of every woman’s life. Discrimination is not exclusive to minority groups. It shows how much you know if that is what you are trying to say.

Okay, you haven't read my post at all, have you?

I'm saying that the idea of men seeing gender equality as an attack on themselves is something that is common to certain people in all majorities because the idea of equality those people have are warped. I'm not saying that women haven't faced discrimination.

Jesus Christ, Brillo. Please at least to attempt to read a post before you respond to it because nothing you have said has any relevance on what I have said at all.

Have and do still despite making up 50 % of the population in most counties. I don’t think there is any other single group that can say that as women have and are still the most discriminated against worldwide.

Also, many of those who you see as a discriminated minority in this country have not been, as well as have been, in a previous country - but members of both groups still continue to discriminate against other groups here.

Okay, you are refusing to read my posts, I'm not going to respond in future since you'll just ignore what I write anyway.

Its part of every mans life as well. We all get discriminated against at some point in our life. Its no big deal, we aren't victims. Its not constant.

Feminism isn't the issue, extremism is. Extreme feminism makes me embarrassed to be a woman and all I can say is, thank god they're a minority. The extreme feminists have ruined the very essence of what feminism is meant to be about. They've hijacked something good and made it into something that's now demonized by both men and women. I'm a feminist but I'm often embarrassed to claim that title.

When I hear women ranting about Barbie belittling women I want to bang these womens head together… its just a toy! When I read a bunch of women belittling men or claiming 'men don't know the awful time us women have. They don't know what its like to bleed or give birth', I just sigh and think, geez, you must hate being female.
This is meant to be about gender equality but sometimes it feels like its all about punishing men.
