Contempt for men is very common among younger generations.

Outside of the politics of our sexes, I think we have many areas of agreement. You say, for example, that you "support helping poor people, free medical care, and free shelter". So do I! And there you are: there are some definite areas of agreement we have that aren't shared by like anyone else here! So I mean in some ways, I probably have more in common with you than I do with just about everyone else here.

Thank you! Definitely Capitalism has a Dark Side -- the fact that many people are left without food, shelter, or medical care. In Russia in 1990s, many people were faced with this reality and wanted the return of Soviet Union. Scandinavia has built a perfect compromise between Socialism and Capitalism.

61% of American women describe themselves as feminists today and I can't speak for all of them. Speaking for myself though, I'm not demanding that men stand with me in support of women's causes. That "feminism is for everyone" stuff is a line of the intersectional feminists and I'm not one of those. I'm a more traditional feminist who feels that the women's movement should be for women and about women, not for everyone and about everyone.

I do not demand anyone help men, but I am grateful to women who help men. I am grateful to women who defend male victims of abuse, I am grateful to women who oppose male-bashing. All Humans have innate value, but I am grateful to those who extend charity toward me and toward causes I am involved with.

I mean to me, when I hear the term "male feminist", the first mental image that comes to my mind is that of a white knight. You know, the type of guy who's very patronizing simply for the purpose of garnering lots of female attention, perhaps toward sexual ends. The aims of this person most often are not fundamentally different from those of pick-up artists or incels: they crave female (especially sexual) attention more than anything else in the world and will do anything to get it. They just have a different strategy for realizing that same basic goal.

I agree 100%.
