It's not about saying men have more issues than women or women have it worse than men. It's not a pissing contest. I get tired of this in internet social justice circles, where everything has to become a competition over who is most oppressed.

We can address "men's issues" and "women's issues" both seperately, but without denying that they both exist and that they are linked.

That's the problem with Men's Rights Activism. Like I said, it blames women for our problems, instead of recognising that hypermasculinity is a reality for a lot of men (the male-driven concept of "what men should do"). Hypermasculinity, brought about solely by men themselves, is to blame for 95% of the issues men face in society. I could go down that entire list you quoted in your opening post and explain how each thing is the fault of men rather than women. Rather than addressing that though, you want to sit here bitching about women and dismissing their issues. It's not productive.

And when a woman is an asshole? What can she do other than hurt your butthurt feelings? Women (mostly) don't hold political power, economic power or even social power in this society. Female "Misandry" doesn't affect you, not until it gets to a point of unprovoked violence, which rarely ever happens.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable."
