When women's health is raised the retort is often "what about men's suicide rates". Well, I am glad you bought that up.... imagine a world in which men were not bearing the burden of being a "real man" and were able to express thier emotions and tap into support networks. They might be free to, gee, I don't know... thrive? Feminists have been saying this and advocating for men for years, its just that many men dont listen until another man says it.

This is an important topic. I’ve met so many men, and some women, who think that feminism is basically a female version of patriarchy.

Feminism benefits men in many way. Also, it's much better for man to be with woman who choses to be with him and wants to be with him, than with woman who must stay with him because otherwise, she will literally starve. When we are equal we have less fears, we are less oppressed and we are happier. We can contribute to relationship in many ways from both sides and that's a good thing. People confuse feminism with some minor groups of first world women who openly hate men. That's not it, it shouldn't be. Feminism is not about hate, it's about free will and equal rights. It's about treating women as humans not objects that serve men. And it's good for men too, I have met so many men who like smart women who challenge them and make them better persons.

I think it's the label that's tripping up the guys. They need to term it Equalatist or something of that nature. They still need to keep (and implement more) programs that help level the playing field for women, mind you. But I think you'd get a better image out of that. Make the slogan something like " all humans, regardless of any physical difference, have the basic human right to be treated with respect, dignity, and compassion". Then the chuckleheads would have to loudly squawk "I'm not a Equalatist, I'm a boy!!!" It gives a more accurate picture of both what feminism is and what those who oppose it stand for.

so many truth, but how many men willing to listen and change? The world probably need 50 more years... pray for the next generation ?

In my experience, it depends on what type of feminism. I grew up being raised by very independent women and was taught to open doors, protect and cherish them. That being said, I was also taught to expect a woman to be able to hold her own. A partner, not a child or victim. Lately, it seems the most vocal "Feminists" are just man-haters who think all men are abusive pricks that screw anything that moves. Patriarchy has become a word associated with hate. I have two daughters that are strong independent women and I laugh when boys are dumfounded that they take no s**t and get kicked to the curb. They also are kind, loving and respectful and would never yell and scream at a stranger simply because he was born with a penis.

I thought Frank Zappa was dead?

Who the f**k downvoted my comment?! Is it a crime to mention your religion in your comments?

I think the whole "don't cry" ethos isn't really "don't cry EVER" it's "don't cry over little stuff and don't cry often". To the extent boys are taught to never emote, that's wrong. But on the other side of that is a real and good lesson that "if a family member or friend dies and you cry, that's fine. if you spill your milk and you cry, that's not fine. Have your emotions, sure. But in the heat of the moment don't let your emotions cloud your judgment or stop you from doing what needs to be done." These lessons are gender-neutral BTW. The same rules stated above apply to women too. It's really about being a stable adult who feels emotions but isn't dominated by them. Somewhere along the line this nuanced lesson became understood as "men no cry ever. men no show emotion. emotion for women and emotion bad!"

This is entirely based on your astrology sign. Has nothing to do with Feminism or any other mental health issue similar to it. I'm a Pisces male and I do cry when watching some movies or something affects me in a touching way.
