    You can be both a feminist and recognize that men have major struggles too, they’re not mutually exclusive

      Also, isn’t that still under the umbrella of feminism? Feminism isn’t “only women rule”. Recognizing gender stereotypes affecting men’s mental health sounds very much like a feminist thing.

        Feminism isn’t “only women rule”.

        Nowadays this seems to really be the case. Not only do “only women rule”, it becomes “men suck” as well. See the recent “I hate all men” thing, as an example. There’s some people who say it as a joke, but there are tons who actually believe it, and worse, act on it.

        Well, yes, but they’re still not mutually exclusive. For example, I like apples but I also like other fruits as well. Me liking all fruits doesn’t override my liking of apples.
