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

It's probably been said in the last 11 pages, but I'll reiterate in response to the original question: We seem to perceive human rights as a limited resource, meaning that if someone gets MORE rights, there are fewer rights remaining for the rest of us. Which doesn't make any ****ing sense, but that's how we act about it. So people respond to men's rights issues as if men, asserting their rights, are trying to take even more rights away from groups of people with too few of them.
