Maybe People Should Not Look Up To YouTube Atheist

Lemon - Huh? I took a woman's studies course and we had an entire section on men. Some of those issues were brought up, and not to mention if feminism is done properly such things against men would also equalize. Feminists often do not like if too much focus is put on men because it always has been put on men. That being said, feminists do talk about how issues have an effect on men - they generally do not like when you DERAIL topics about women with men's issues.

I always mention this too - the woman's studies department at my old college (and others as well) is changing to Gender and Sexuality Studies or something similar. Inclusivity was already a part of the class, but now it is in the title as well.

Most of the people in charge of universities are trying to reduce the hostility towards masculinity that's in feminism, I get that, but it's not going to happen overnight. As it stands, I've talked with other guys who have taken gender studies classes and felt nothing but hostility from the rest of the class, one guy going so far as to say he felt abused in the class. I remember dealing with some garbage like that on facebook when, someone posted a pic of a sign. The sign said "End violence against women" but someone marked out where it said "against women." It was done in such a way, though, that it was obviously intentionally done this way and not someone elses' sign that was vandalized. Suddenly, this became a huge, sexist issue with lots of self described feminists screaming how misogynisitc it was. I only convinced (most of) them that it wasn't when I pointed out that the the symbol under the writing was the transgender symbol and that it's suggesting ending violence against transgender people, including those who don't qualify as women. But it strikes me, why is it suddenly more acceptable to say "violence against women is bad" than it is to say "violence is bad"? Especially when violence against men has so much social acceptability:
