If feminism and men's rights activism is simply a group of people trying to raise awareness about women's and men's issues respectively, I think that's a good thing. Just as raising awareness for any problem is a good thing. A person can be involved in either, depending on what hits most close to home for them, without being "against" the other. For example, if I was part of some Alzheimer's association to raise awareness about that disease, that doesn't mean I'm going to be against Aids awareness groups.
So theres nothing wrong with feminism and MRAism per se. They both have valid points because both men and women have their own issues and their own disadvantages. It's when they start making each other the enemy and/or gaining some sort of disproportionate victim complex, that's annoying.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
