Why does there seem to be a stigma attached to advocate for Men's Rights?

Bill Clinton's, I assume.

I had to look that **** up. So, is Urban pro-Milo, making fun of Milo with a pic of him looking suspect, or what? I'm assuming the latter, since I first thought it was a pic of a flamboyantly gay dude, but I have little context for the reference, other than a quick peek at his page on Know Your Meme.

Oh, and about the GB's post. GB recognizes that certain potential inequalities are likely caused by what I'm assuming is a sort of pendulum effect, where the rights of the "oppressed" are expanded at the expense of the "oppressors"...

Quote:

The inequality you are perceiving is either not an inequality, or it is a temporary inequality whose purpose is to try and resolve a broader and more significant inequality facing a smaller and less powerful group.

But I think his greater argument basically dismisses this as largely unimportant in the face of bigger problems. If we're going to be concerned with rights, then even if progress is being made, it's still hypocritical and misses the entire point of the exercise.

If feminism ignores things like legal inequalities in regards to parental rights, domestic violence, divorce, etc, then it ceases to be a human rights movement and becomes just another self-interest lobbying group, no different from the NRA.

No. Widely accepted idealogy.

Milo is hilarious, enjoys winding up idiots (which is why I like watching his videos). Seen one clip of him the other day on that same program he said that on I think it was, first part of his argument was backed up with research and facts, and the second part was "shut up now, men are talking"

Except for the lack of assault rifles. You listening, feminists?

If you're not pro-Milo, you're a homophobic, CIS-gendered, anti-fabulous, regressive shitlord.

So I just caught wind of this movie, which I think is coming out pretty soon. Good trailer for anyone who is interested.

And here's the God herself discussing a review of it.
