Re: Henpecked husband or a true man?
That’s not fair. I’m against racism and some rednecks will never accept me but I don’t consider myself Martin Luther King or a civil rights activist because I believe in equality for all. You can’t go around changing people’s personal beliefs through force or being in their face. You can only ask that the government recognize you as an equal and that the attitudes of those people change with time.
You yourself admitted that women have too many legal rights so why don’t I see feminists joining the men’s rights movements? Aren’t they for equality for everyone? No, they are not. They’re still fighting for rights that they apparently don’t have. Why would you want to be associated with these people?
I feel like you’ve had some bad experiences. I personally have not seen the kind of injustices you’re talking about. I’ll admit that my father is very progressive so I’ve never seen my mom being held back or anything of that nature so perhaps what you consider to be something to strive for, I consider normal treatment of women.
Dude, I am not a self proclaimed feminist. Wo kehte hain na your perception is your reality. Feminist is what I get called anytime I open my mouth. Given my desi background, I only see women being cheated out of their rights. So naturally, that’s what I would speak up against more often than other things.
