This is a stupid position to take; you wouldn't blame any other group for focusing on one thing, after all. You're not dismissing cancer researchers because they aren't dealing with HIV. Sometimes, interest groups specialize. It's kinda what makes human culture so strong.
Moreover, one could easily argue that the gender equality that moderate feminism fights for also redresses inequality toward men via removing all manner of harmful thinking regarding gender roles. As to your other questions, that's kind of mystifying; I've seen plenty of coverage of transgender issues in the feminist media I frequent, and I don't think anyone is advocating for gender-based oppression of either men or women here. Seems like you're kinda spinning issues out of wholecloth to be mad at here.
