You are an atheist, and you aren't afraid to be associated with the word just because of the minority of atheists who think religion should be illegal, or that religions people should be executed, or that spend their time insulting religions people and calling them inferiors - So why do the same with feminism? It makes no sense. You shouldn't refuse to be associated with a movement simply because of what others think of it, be honest with yourself... Let's reverse the situations - Would you enjoy it if a woman didn't support equal rights for men just because some men hate women (I'm thinking about religion, about certain countries, about rape statistics and sexual slavery, and so on)... Do you think it would be fair? Of course not, it wouldn't make sense for a female to not support men's rights just because some men harm women, so the same goes for your side
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
